Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1560 "Deposit"

According to Figel's later report, the guards she encountered looked like they were of military origin, or that they had been educated in this area from a young age.

Different armies often have different fighting skills, and the sword skills of those guards are very Portuguese army style.During the American Revolutionary War, many of the leaders were Freemasons, and this may have foreshadowed a secret that Freemasonry intended to spread among the Portuguese army, just as Mithraism had spread secretly among Roman soldiers.

After the Lisbon earthquake, many civilians still live in wooden houses. The "Freedom Masons Union" certainly hopes that the Portuguese people will become rich and everyone will live in stone or brick houses, so that they can earn money themselves, and the Portuguese Can live a happy life.

"Brothers" must of course treat each other with sincerity, and they guard a secret together.Some of these people joined voluntarily, and some were cultivated from childhood.The war broke up many families. Some parents were unable to raise their children. Some of them were abandoned, and some would be sent to workhouses. At this time, someone would pick someone up.

They are not trained as killers like "Assassins". In summary, there are two rules:
[-]. Use your imagination

[-]. Only do it once

The mysterious organization and the arduous and lofty mission made these young people in their 20s a little frivolous, but Figel didn't like them anyway.

This is actually a good thing. If one day France and Portugal are at war again, it won’t be so difficult to meet someone on the battlefield. Of course, this kind of "task" is not as interesting as performing missions to explore secrets, but people who perform this kind of solitary mission There are special conditions. For example, Georgiana received one.

The wind direction rose is often marked on the map. The altar in the Burgundy mansion should have other secrets. She lives in that place now. Who else is more suitable for finding clues than her?

The "rose" drawn with gold lines looks very gorgeous on the snow-white marble, but this altar is surrounded by walls on all sides, how can the wind blow in?
"Well, use your imagination~" she murmured, she had solved so many mazes, she couldn't believe she couldn't break this one.

She cast a Sense Charm on herself, then closed her eyes and sensed everything around her.

The city of Paris is actually very crowded, the traffic is messy and disorderly, the living environment of the family is very poor, and there are crumbling wooden houses everywhere.

Old houses should also be distinguished. No one will demolish the royal palace in Venice, but those who live in a bad environment are eager to move out or demolish.The poor could not afford leather shoes, clogs and arguments were heard everywhere, and women complained about their children, or talked to their husbands about when they would be able to move to "a place where people lived."

There was also a tangy stench, both chemicals and excrement, and she quickly lifted the spell.

Then she started crying again.

"I asked them to make you happy, why are you crying again?"

She heard someone say at the door.

She raised her head and found that it was Napoleoni who was wearing a French academician's uniform instead of a military uniform.

She had a good time in the clubhouse that day. Mr. Ribo and Longvier told her many stories, and also told her some things she didn't know.

After he nationalized tobacco, some people thought that steel should also be nationalized, but he didn't do that.

There is a "balance" between brother and woman that is now in jeopardy, even if Georgiana and Leon Cour are not making waves.

If the river freezes and the land transportation remains unimpeded, then the price of the Elbe River will not rise so exaggeratedly. The Freemasonry hopes to promote the railway, which is in line with Napoleon's continental system.

Although the transportation cost of land transportation is higher than that of sea transportation, it has an advantage that sea transportation cannot match - regional alliances. As long as the track distance between countries is fixed, it is not so easy to change. This is a more binding contract than a peace treaty. After all, signing a peace agreement is just a piece of paper, which can be torn up at any time, but it is not so easy to start civil engineering. It requires a lot of manpower and material resources, even similar to the construction.

At present, the locomotive can still be used to drag it, but it will be developed sooner or later, and then the European continent will usher in another revolution.

Napoleon's attack caused the ancient Holy Roman Empire to fall apart. Georgiana remembered that Franz II was the last emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and the founding emperor of the Austrian Empire. At the same time, the Ottoman Empire was also at risk of falling apart.

Not everyone in the Turks liked Napoleon that much. His luxurious oriental dream was not only to fulfill his childhood dream, but also related to the private agreement of the governor Siyes at that time. After occupying Egypt, Napoleon would continue to pay The East occupied India and replaced the overseas colonies previously given to Britain by the Bourbon dynasty with this colony.

"I was wondering how you persuaded the church to allow Protestants to marry Catholics," she whispered. "Is the Prince of Wales involved?"

He didn't speak, but walked slowly towards her.

"What did you guys talk about today?" He said carelessly.

She tossed him a little black velvet purse, which he caught swiftly.

"What is this?" He was in no hurry to untie the silver thread on the purse.

"Your birthday present," Georgiana said. "Open it."

Like a successful pickpocket, he weighed the money bag in his hand, then opened it, and poured out the contents. It was a gold ring.

"You traded the bracelet for a ring?" he laughed.

"How do you know I traded it for a bracelet?" Georgiana said with a smile.

He looked at the ring "really rough workmanship."

He said with disgust.

"Not bad for someone in the 5th century," Georgiana explained. "Do you know who it used to belong to?"

He turned his gaze to her.

"Attila." Georgiana said softly, "I think you should know his story."

"You still think that the treasures of the Knights Templar are in the hands of the Freemasons?" Bonaparte said with a smile, as if he didn't take it seriously.

"This is the engagement ring given to the King of the Huns by the princess of the Western Roman Empire." Georgiana said, "After occupying the Byzantine Empire, Attila has been looking for excuses to attack the Western Roman Empire. Princess Honoria offered to Attila The marriage proposal gave Attila an excuse to attack Western Rome."

His expression became serious.

"Don't get me wrong, I have no intention of proposing to you." Georgiana sneered, "But I do have two requests."

"Speak." He said a little arrogantly.

"I heard that you broke down the walls of the native settlements when you attacked Frankfurt and Venice," said Georgiana.

"Yes."

"They also lifted their curfew."

He didn't answer, it was a tacit consent.

"I hope you will give the same freedom to the British living in France, whether there will be war between Britain and France, you will not force them to live in camps."

"You chose that camp yourself," said Bonaparte. "I am good to the prisoners."

"On the premise that they didn't anger you." Georgiana added, "This ring is the deposit I got for accepting the mission, not you gave it to me."

"Do you have another condition?" He asked.

"Attila is a military genius, but he is not as good at negotiating as you." She said flatteringly, "You shouldn't call yourself Attila of Venice, that would lower your status."

Bonaparte smiled, but not triumphantly, as if expecting what she would say.

"Have you ever been to Toceno Island?"

"You want to talk about the stone chair that Attila sat on on the island?"

"It's just a legend. Venice was still a small fishing village in the 5th century, so Attila wouldn't go there." Georgiana said with a smile, "I heard from the locals that if you sit on that chair, you will have a good marriage. Remember how Attila died?"

"You are so brave." He smiled and said, "You actually gave me a cursed ring."

"There is also a small bridge on that island. Some people say that a Venetian girl fell in love with an Austrian soldier. He died while handling a battle. So the girl made a wish to the witch, hoping that she would save her lover and come back... "

"I've heard enough stories, what's your second condition?"

"Stop widening and deepening the Grand Canal, Leon, do you want to destroy that city?" Georgiana begged.

"What do you exchange with me?" He said coldly.

"I'll tell you a secret." She said calmly, "That's what I got from an expedition. You can understand it as the wealth my husband asked me to keep."

He looked at her blankly, looking as if he was about to get angry.

"The Pasha's wife used this ring to keep her husband's other wealth." Georgiana raised her hand with the fire opal ring. "What do you think it looks like?"

"You can just say it," he said angrily.

Does it look like the legendary panacea, the Philosopher's Stone?
Georgiana didn't ask in the end, because they were in Paris at the moment, where the Philosopher's Stone was born.

She hoped some madman hadn't kidnapped innocent children in an attempt to forge that stone.

"This is an alchemy item, and what I want to tell you is related to alchemy."

Napoleon laughed, "You want me to be as obsessed with the occult as Alexander?"

"On the contrary, I hope you don't believe too much in those things." Georgiana pointed to the sky "What I want to tell you is about the connection between the stars and us. Each of us is a child of the stars. When a star is bigger than the sun When the larger star dies, we emerge from the wreckage it left behind."

"Why a star larger than the sun?" he asked.

"Because only when a star of that size dies does its core turn to iron, the sun's core only turns to carbon, and iron makes up our blood, and carbon makes up our bodies."

He fell silent, as if waiting for her to continue.

"Did you agree to the conditions I said before?" Georgiana asked.

"Do you know what makes Georgina smarter than you? What she wants is much simpler than you." He said impatiently, "She will get what she wants, unlike what you want..."

"You said before that you were not so tired after crossing the Alps twice." She interrupted him with a smile. "I also told you that I am not so easy to deal with. Civilians, knights' wars cannot affect civilians, this is my condition."

"I can't guarantee that innocent people will not be hurt at all." He said slipperyly, throwing the problem to her.

"At least try to keep your paw back, my Lion," said Georgiana.

He and she looked at each other for a while, then lowered his head and looked at the ring in his hand.

"Geneviève is also related to Attila," he whispered.

"You can say that she is the saint who protects the city." Georgiana sighed helplessly.

So where is Paris?A tourist city for fun or a city worth protecting with your life?

"I'd like to say something clever," said Georgiana, "but I don't know what to say, General."

"Divorce him," he said grimly. "Don't wear out my patience."

She couldn't promise him.

"I'm surrounded by people who follow the wind. When I'm in adversity, they will abandon me and betray me. You're different..." He pinched his nose "I can't predict what you're going to do, it's very dangerous .”

"I have no idea……"

"Wait till you figure it out." He turned away. "I wish it was an engagement ring now."

Georgiana watched him go when a gust of wind blew through the open door.

It's totally pointless, isn't it?
