In fact, strictly speaking, Anne Lot and Erin are not familiar with each other, and can even be said to be very strange. The two of them had only met a few times, and they had not talked much at a time. So, Anne Lot and Erin really aren't very familiar with each other.

But Anne Lot understood Erin's place in Regner's heart, and she didn't know what made Regner let go of the trance-like Irene and run out. But since Regner is away, Anne Lott feels the need to help him take care of Erin.

When Anne Lot pushed the door in, Erin was lying on the bed in a daze. When she saw Annelot, she did exactly what she had done when she saw Christine, she stepped back in horror and muttered, "No...... Don't come...... Don't you hurt me...... Miss Anne, I, I...... I'm not going to leave Brother Regner's ...... No...... I know you hate me...... But ......"

Erin said this, and a sad expression suddenly appeared on her face: "No...... Brother Regna is gone...... He doesn't want me anymore...... I...... Erin......"

As Erin said this, tears fell from her eyes.

Anne Lot's heart hurt when she saw this, she had heard about Irene's past from Regner. So she understood how weak and timid this half-elf girl was, she didn't understand what happened to make Erin like this, and she couldn't understand why Regner left Erin at this time. How could he let Erin be so pathetic here without anyone to take care of her?

Anne Lott sighed helplessly, although she hurried over. But in fact, it's all because Erin is important to Regner. In terms of personal feelings, Anne Lot does not have a good impression of Erin.

Why? And why? Because Frost Maiden felt that Erin was the first to walk into Regner's heart. Although Regner repeatedly stated that the three of them were equally important to him. But in terms of priority, Anne Lott always felt that she was still a little bit behind Erin. This is a very uncomfortable thing for Annelot, who is used to being stronger than others.

Oh, of course, these are actually some of Annelot's subconscious opinions. So, she herself didn't realize it. She wouldn't admit that she was competing with Erin and Iniris for anything!

And now looking at Erin's delicate and pitiful appearance, Anne Lott is naturally distressed. Although she is not a person with a flood of compassion like Erin, she also has a gentle and kind heart under that cold appearance.

Therefore, Anne Lot also forgot about some small estrangements between her and Erin for the time being. She gave a rare gentle smile and said to Erin, "Don't be afraid, Erin, I won't hurt you. ”

"No...... You ......" Erin still didn't believe it, she contracted her body in fear, and then said in a trembling voice, "Miss Annie, you must think I'm in the way of Brother Regner, don't you?" Brother Regna doesn't want me anymore, so you can just let me go? Please, will you let me go?"

"......" Anne Lot saw that Erin's mood fluctuated a lot at this time, and she had no choice but to cast a few concentrating spells on Erin first.

After Erin calmed down a little, Anne Lot said, "Okay, Irene, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you...... In fact, it was Regner who asked me to come over to protect you, and he didn't abandon you. ”

"Really?" said this, Erin's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yes......" Anne Lot saw that this method was working, so she could only continue to tell this lie: "Regner left suddenly because he had some urgent matters to deal with, but he didn't want you anymore." Isn't it? Because he can't worry about you, so let me take care of you, you...... You can trust me. ”

Although the last sentence made Annelot's awkward temperament extremely uncomfortable when she said it, for the sake of Erin, Annelot still reluctantly said it.

"I can...... Trust you......" Erin tentatively leaned forward, just like the stray kittens she had behaved when she first fed them in Costa Fortress - yearning, fear, doubt, temptation......

Anne Lott also moved forward slowly, she was afraid that she would move too much and stimulate Erin.

Although the distance between the two was only two or three meters, it took a full minute from the two of them to the time they started to hug each other.

Erin finally reached out her hands and hugged Annelot's waist. Probably because Annelot has been in contact with Regner a lot lately, Erin feels that she smells a very familiar smell from Annelot, which is Regner's smell.

"Wow!!!" Irene finally burst into tears under the stimulation of this smell. Her cry was full of fear, fear, incomprehension, and grievance.

Anne Lott was stunned for a moment at first, she didn't expect Erin's reaction to be so fierce. But she soon adjusted her thinking. Although she was about the same age as Erin, the Frost Girl gently stroked Erin's long hair like a big sister at this time, and then comforted Erin softly, just as she comforted Inile......

"Alright...... All right...... It's okay, Erin don't have to be scared anymore, I'll protect you......" Anne Lott couldn't help but be stunned when she said this, how could she have learned Regner's mantra now?

But even though Regner had said this sentence countless times, Erin still seemed to be very useful about it. When she heard Anne Lott say that, she seemed to be really relieved.

Under Annelot's caressing, Irene's crying gradually became quieter, and at last she fell asleep groggy.

Anne Lot gently laid Erin down and then covered her with the quilt. She had wanted to go out to the barracks and ask what had happened, but if Irene woke up and couldn't see herself, she would fall into fear again. So she shook her head and dismissed the idea.

Annelot pushed open the door and called a guard, then stood in the doorway and whispered to him about the whole thing.

As it happened, the guard happened to be the guy who had delivered the package to Erin in the first place. So he relied on his own impressions to tell everything he had seen and heard during this period of time. These include how Erin escaped to the barracks, and how Regner arrived, Lisanna left, and a package that caused her to have a nervous breakdown.

"That package, what's in it, where is it now?" asked Annelot.

"I don't know. The guard shook his head, "Lord Regna seems to have hidden that thing later, and now we don't know where it is." But I've heard that there are two doctors in the barracks who seem to have seen what's inside. ”

"Then I'll trouble you to get those two doctors. ”

"That's easy, Miss Annelot, wait here for a moment. The guard grinned and ran away. It looked like he was running faster than the task assigned to him by their corps commander, after all, being called by a beauty of Annelot's level was a happy thing in itself.

Eventually, Anne Lot finally knew what was inside the package. And she vaguely guessed what Regner was doing. After coming to the conclusion, Annelot couldn't help but feel anxious, although she had never met Saron, but she also understood that a person with dual-attribute abilities was definitely not so easy to deal with!

But it was useless for her to be in a hurry, because Erin was still here. This girl needs someone to take care of her so much now, she must have someone by her side!

Therefore, Anne Lot had no choice but to write a letter to her father. I hope he can come forward to rush to Costa Fortress to take a look at the situation, but although this Malolite is a warrior in the Sanctuary, he doesn't know magic, and if he comes from Melindell, it will take a few days.

Anne Lot was worried about what would happen to Regner in the next day or two. But she believed that that guy should not be a person who did not know the importance of the matter, and besides, Regner still had the amulet he gave him! Didn't he promise that he would use that space gem if he was in danger? Since he had not sensed the information about the amulet so far, then there was no danger on Regner's side.

Therefore, although she was very anxious, Anne Lot could only suppress her impatience and take care of Erin here. At the same time, he waited for Regner's return.

"Don't miss the appointment, or I'll make you look good!" thought to Anne Lot, silently in her mind.

And what is it like on Regner's side?

Let's turn the camera to Regner's side again.

Because the barracks themselves were on the battlefield border, it took just over two days for Regna to get from the barracks to the Costa Fortress. Despite being mentally prepared, Regner didn't expect that the situation in the Costa Fortress would be so miserable.

The smoke of war still spreads over the fortress. Although Costa Fortress is not prosperous as a military fortress, it is far from the devastated scene it is now. Ruins, broken walls, broken houses, ruins, and even a few pieces of corpse fragments that have not been cleaned up, maybe limbs, maybe internal organs, but at this time they are completely dirty and unrecognizable.

Regner arrived at the Costa Fortress in the afternoon. At this time, the Costa Fortress has been defined as a fully militarized fortress by Stoker, that is, there are no more civilians in it, all of them are soldiers of the Stoke Empire.

In fact, there are actually no ordinary people left in it. On the day of the siege, the Stoke Imperial soldiers not only wiped out the defenders of the Hawk Imperial Fortress, but also slaughtered nearly half of the residents of the Costa Fortress during the siege. The remaining half, which was used by the Stoke people as coolies to clean up the battlefield, was exiled. As for whether they can survive or not, it is not their concern.

Regner is now a cold-blooded assassin who kills people without blinking, but like the Stoke Empire, he directly slaughtered half of the city's residents, and Regner still feels terrified to think about it.

He did not go directly to the fortress, but patiently regained his strength on the outskirts of the fortress, making sure that all his equipment was ready. By midnight, Regner had finally set about his actions.

"Saron, I'm coming for you!" Regner said silently as he felt inside the Costa fortress, which was full of Stoke Empire defenders.
