Chapter 647 Queen Cirdan
Vito, the shipwright of the Western Exploration Team, and five other crew members.
A total of six people became prisoners of the "superiors".
The superior person can be called a Sedan person in the local language pronunciation.
But privately, they prefer to call them goat people based on their physical characteristics.
Vito is now in an empty room.
Everyone has shackles on their feet.
“Oh, my little cuties!”
A well-dressed Cerdan man walked in with a whip in his hand.
“How is your lesson going?”
He looked at Vito and others with eyes full of affection, but it was the kind of affection that he looked at kittens and puppies.
“Crack!”
He cracked the whip.
“Sir Hubbard will come to see the results of your training soon. I hope you will not disappoint him.”
“Yes, Mr. Abbot, we are ready. .”
Vito and others answered him in fluent local language, and then saluted him solemnly in the Cerdan way.
Although they still felt very humiliated in their hearts.
But it had to be done in order not to be abused.
There is a saying from Earl Grayman - as long as the blue foothills are left, there is no need to worry about running out of firewood.
The fate of people is the same. As long as you live, there will always be a day when things change.
"Very good, very good, you are really my masterpiece."
Abut nodded with satisfaction, and then he went out.
Vito and others continued to wait.
After a while, the Cerdan who ordered the attack on the exploration team ship in the port - City Lord Hubbard - appeared in the house.
He examined the learning results of Vito et al.
Language, etiquette, etc...
"Surprising!"
He discussed with Abbot in a very surprised tone.
"Actually, I would have thought that these hornless people might have some kind of intellectual defect."
He circled his fingers at his temples.
"But it seems they performed better than I thought."
Vito and others were filled with anger in their letters, but they did not dare to show it.
"Okay, little cuties!"
Hubbard clapped his hands, "Now I can finally present you to Her Majesty the Queen. I hope Her Majesty likes this gift."
——
"There seems to be a banquet being held inside!"
Listening to bursts of music from unknown musical instruments coming from the palace, Pepys, a member of the exploration team, guessed so.
"Well, later we will be brought to the banquet for exhibition like six monkeys."
Another member of the exploration team, Ralph, laughed at himself, "I hope that Her Majesty the Queen likes monkeys.”
During this period, they have worked hard to learn all kinds of knowledge about the Serdan people.
In the words of the "animal trainer" Abt, this is to make them behave more like a "human being".
Disobedience will be punished.
Starvation, even physical pain.
But if you are obedient, you can eat and drink well.
“Alas, you think, can we return to our hometown?”
Pepys was extremely frustrated. Could he only exist as a pet for the rest of his life?
Everyone was silent, no one responded to him.
Finally, Vito said: "Don't think about the worst, you have to think about it."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of Cerdans dressed as palace guards left. come over.
"Alright! Hornless guys!"
The leader shouted loudly, "Her Majesty the Queen intends to take a look at these strange creatures, and I hope you will not do anything inappropriate."
Vito thought of the dwarfs raised by kings and lords in the old world. .
Every ruler's court has people with such physical development problems.
When the lords held banquets, they would let the dwarfs perform at the banquet.
Acrobatics, magic, and burlesque performances for the entertainment of guests.
What are the true feelings of the dwarfs?
Are you already numb, or are you as angry as yourself?
Dragging the shackles on their feet, they were led to the banquet. In the hall where the banquet was held, all Cerdan nobles in gorgeous costumes gathered together.
As soon as Vito and others appeared, they attracted the attention of most people.
"Wow, there really are no horns!"
"Did Master Hubbard saw off their horns?"
"Oh, that would be too cruel."< br>
There were discussions about them around, which made the six of them very uncomfortable.
They lowered their heads, followed the ceremonial officer, and slowly moved towards the main seat along the scarlet ornate carpet, where the ruler of this country sat.
They were not allowed to lift their heads until permission was given.
The etiquette officer stopped, and Vito and others also stopped immediately.
"Your Majesty!"
Hubbard's voice sounded, and he was reporting to the Queen.
“These are the hornless people captured from the port of my territory. According to themselves, they are from another continent.”
"I saw that they looked novel, so I gave them to Your Majesty as gifts. I hope you like them."
Vito and others waited quietly.
After a while, a female voice with a beautiful voice sounded.
“Raise your heads.”
Vito was nervous and slowly raised his head to look at the throne above.
Then he was stunned.
The Queen of the Cirdan people is standing there.
The tall and graceful figure, the very seductive face...
Especially the green eyes and long green hair...
No matter how you look at it, it looks like Victoria To someone I've met before.
So similar! I also saw him at the banquet before the expedition team set off.
Except for an extra pair of corners.
"She seems to be..."
Pepys murmured to himself, and the others were also very surprised.
The "gaffe" of the hornless people made Hubbard very embarrassed.
Although the queen I am attracted to is indeed very beautiful.
Really, training them was in vain.
In front of the Queen and many guests, Hubbard could not fall out.
He bowed to the queen.
"Your Majesty, I am very sorry that my gift hit you."
"Sir Hubbard, I like your... gift very much."
The Queen of the Cerdan people showed strong interest in her eyes, and her eyes stayed on Vito and others.
"That would be great."
Hubbard smiled and said, "I hope they can bring you pleasure."
The queen ordered the attendants, "Bring them The shackles are removed from their bodies.”
This surprised Hubbard, but he didn't stop him.
But what happened next shocked him.
The Queen actually arranged a dining table for her "gifts", just like the other guests present.
"Your Majesty, this..."
"Why, do you have any objection to what I am doing?" The Queen's voice was full of majesty.
"Oh, no. They are already your property, and it is your freedom to do with them."
Is this... freedom? Vito and others were surprised and felt their bodies relaxed as never before.
"Guests who have traveled across the ocean, I hope you can have a drink here."
The Queen of the Cirdan people raised her wine glass to them and winked mischievously.
Vito and others suddenly felt waves in their hearts.
The Queen displayed an indescribable charm.
Perhaps it can be called "charm".
