Chapter Forty-Eight: No Choice
"I ...... The ......" Regner didn't dare to look into Annelot's eyes, he replied with a wandering gaze: "Anyway, it's just a few days away, and it's not a big deal, I'm afraid you're busy, so I didn't inform you......"
In fact, with Regner's rogue character, although it can't be said that lying is as simple as gasping, if he only occasionally deceives Annelot, he can still do it. But maybe Anne Lot is actually too prosperous today, and Regner can't help but feel weak when he sees this girl, so it becomes quite unnatural to lie.
And all this could not escape Annelot's eyes, she narrowed her beautiful big eyes, and the ice-blue pupils radiated a light that Regner did not dare to look at. Anne Lot said coldly: "Don't lie to me, you should know what will happen if you lie to me!"
Regner felt a cold air run down his back when he heard the threat, but he still didn't want to tell the truth. Because he knew that if he told him what he was doing, Anne Lot would most likely choose to follow. But the danger factor of this mission can be said to be unprecedented, even if Annelot is strong, Regner still feels uneasy. And the research of the magic cannon couldn't let her go, so he still didn't speak.
"If you don't say it, I know!" Annelot's eyes flashed with anger, and she said in a questioning tone: "You are going to the Ice and Snow Plateau to negotiate with the barbarian king, if the talks collapse, you will find a way to create civil strife among the barbarians, and even kill the barbarian king!!"
"How do you know?" said Regner, grimacing.
"Don't forget that besides you, there are many people in the MIA who know about this. "Anne Lot's ability to sell teammates is also top-notch.
"I already knew that Uncle was unreliable!" Regner was quite annoyed, Snow and Goethe only knew that they were going to the Ice and Snow Plateau, and as for what they were doing, only Alex knew. So if Annelot said that, it was undoubtedly Alex.
"Why are you hiding it from me?" Anne Lott did not give Alex the help who leaked the news, in fact, Alex was also recruited by Anne Lot's torture to extract a confession.
"......" Regner hesitated for a long time, but seeing that Anne Lot's temper was not very good today, he finally chose to tell the truth.
"Because I am afraid that you are in danger, and besides, Master Mel has warned me not to delay your magical practice. Regner said weakly.
"Isn't it dangerous for you to go yourself?" asked Annelot.
"I'm not myself. Regner shrugged: "There's Uncle Alex here!"
"......" Anne Lot's eyes flashed when she heard this, and she obviously misunderstood Regner's meaning as "I don't need you because I'm here."
Regner quickly realized what was wrong with Anne Lot, and he quickly said, "Hey, Anne, you misunderstood me!
"I didn't get me wrong!" Anne Lott stubbornly refused to admit it, but it was clear that Regner's explanation softened her eyes a lot.
"Anyway......" Regner said with a wry smile, "I won't let you go, first, because I am afraid that you will be in any danger there, and secondly, I am afraid that it will delay the process of restoring your magic cannon." ”
"But ......"
Anne Lott wanted to say something more, but Regner interrupted her in a rare way, "It's nothing, Anne, I admit that I have a lot of shortcomings, and I might feel more at ease if you were by my side." But you probably don't know that, you can't be with me every minute, and I can't rely on you all the time to get things done. So, you'd better let me try it myself!"
"......" Anne Lot was silent, she knew that Regner was right, but when she thought that this guy was going to the Ice and Snow Plateau to find trouble with the Barbarian King, she couldn't let go of this heart. That's an eighteenth-level berserker after all!
Seeing that Anne Lot was a little loose, Regner struck while the iron was hot and continued: "Moreover, you also have important matters, don't you? The restoration work of the magic cannon was given a death order by His Majesty, if you go out with me and delay it for a month or two, I am afraid it will be difficult to complete the task on time when you come back, right?"
"I'm ......," Anne Lott was speechless for a moment, she had just asked Alex about Regner's movements and ran directly to ask the teacher for her guilt. At this time, she realized that she actually had a lot of tasks, and if she left Melindell, the next thing would be really difficult.
"If you can't complete the task, I'm afraid you won't be able to become the dean of the Academy of Magic. Regner saw Annelot's expression and knew that victory was in sight, and he continued with a smile: "In the long run, your stay in Melindale will help me more, won't you?"
"......" Anne Lott still didn't let go, she seemed to be waiting for something.
Regner thought for a moment, then suddenly put away his smile: "Hey, Annie." ”
"Huh?"
"I'll be back. Regner said earnestly, "I will come back intact, I promised you, I will live well, will I? ”
Regner said as he took out the space gem hanging around his neck, and he raised the ornament in his hand: "Don't forget that there is still it, even if I have any dangers that are difficult to deal with, as long as it is there, can I let you come and help me?"
"I'm talking like you're calling a demon. Anne Lot glared at Regner with some dissatisfaction, but this expression looked strange in Regner's eyes.
"Haha, how so?" Regner smiled, and said, "Then you should be relieved, right?"
"......" Anne Lott hesitated, but finally she nodded slightly, "Okay, but don't forget what you said before!"
"Of course I won't forget!" Regner Niu X coaxed a thumbs up: "Even if this mission is not completed, I will come back alive." Besides, I don't dare to say anything else, but I really don't believe anyone is better than me!"
Anne Lot was amused a lot by Regner's shameless remarks, and she no longer had a cold face, but a faint smile. She saw that Regner's collar was a little messy, so she reached out to help him straighten it out, and then said, "When you come back, we will go to Costa Fortress together to help Erin restore her appearance." ”
Regner was stunned by Annelot's intimate behavior, and he gradually realized that if the two of them were alone, Annelot seemed to be much more frank than before. Thinking of this, Regner couldn't help but feel overjoyed. He involuntarily shook Annelot's little hand: "Okay!
"Let go, let go, or I'll ......"
"Huh?!!!!
......
Two days later, the mission, headed by the head of military intelligence, Regna, left Melindel in silence.
"Oops......" Regner clutched his thighs and made a slight ** sound. Two days ago, he provoked Anne Lott to do it again because of his excitement, but this time the Frost Maiden didn't seem to have good control of her strength, and one of her low temperature fields directly froze the defenseless Regner's thighs.
Don't think it's just ordinary frostbite, Annelot's Cryogenic Field can now reduce the temperature of the target area to almost theoretical "absolute zero". Regner's muscle tissue can be said to have been destroyed by the low temperature in an instant, if it weren't for Anne Lot's timely withdrawal of the frost and cold attached to Regner's legs, coupled with the priest's careful treatment, I'm afraid Regner wouldn't be able to get out of bed now!
"What's the matter, I've been in contact with Anne a lot, and I've finally got a cold leg, right?" Alex gloated.
"I'm not even twenty yet, am I?" Regner rolled his eyes, but he really doubted now that if he continued like this, he would have cold legs or rheumatoid arthritis or something like that......
"Come on, don't hold on! I've learned about Anne's cryogenic domain!" Alex had a look on his face that was similar to "I can't look back."
"Cut! The crow is as black as a pig, and you're embarrassed to laugh at me?" said Regner.
"Then you be a pig, I am a crow. Alex refused to eat at all, and he quickly diverted the topic before Regner could talk back: "Hey! I'll tell you about serious things, what are you going to do when you get there?
"......" Regner was silent for a moment, and then shook his head: "I don't particularly hate that person Rego, if I plot against him like this, I will be a little reluctant to ......"
"Cut! I swore before!" said Garona, mocking.
Regner didn't defend himself, but continued to Alex: "So, I want to go over in the name of the mission first, and if the problem can be solved through negotiation, it would be the best." ”
"So what if the talks fall apart?" Alex spread his hands: "After all, Rego is the new barbarian king, and our human world pays attention to the three fires of new officials, and I think the barbarians can understand this truth." Narego wants to establish his prestige among the clan, and I think the best way to do that is to take his people directly to the south. After all, in the eyes of this group of barbarians, prestige and prestige are all made. What will you do if he is determined to go south?"
"......" was questioned by Alex, and Regner was silent for a moment. Then a resolute look flashed in his eyes: "If he really chooses this, then I don't have a choice." ”
