Todd rubbed his brow vigorously, the development of events made him feel more and more headaches.

Originally, there were already three factions fighting each other in the Holy Acropolis, plus the Kingdom of Twilight and the Church, and then the Council of Elders, and now the whole situation has been stirred up like a pot of porridge.

"I'm going to take a trip to the Holy Acropolis. ”

Todd's words stunned Richell.

The latter looked at him with a serious look, lowered his eyelids and asked, "Is it because of someone?"

When Todd heard this, he didn't react to the deep meaning of the other party's words, but asked strangely, "Because of someone?"

Rachel looked up as if nothing had happened: "The current Acropolis is not a good place to go, there are many people and the situation is critical...... Besides, you've just finished commanding a big battle, don't you want to take a break?"

As if he had already resigned himself to running and toiling, Todd shrugged: "The word rest seems to have lost interest to me, and the irony is that a long time ago, the most I wanted to do was to lie in bed and live my life comfortably." ”

Rachel poked his finger at the other man's head, "Those old guys in Twilight City, you thought you were willing to give up power for the future of the kingdom. But I'm well aware that the reason why you do that is because you're lazy. ”

Todd smiled wryly and chose to remain silent.

"Selection of officials, revision of laws, formation of a cabinet...... All these things you have done are to spread the burden of the king to others. Richer lowered her head, and a faint body fragrance filled the tip of their noses: "I have been thinking for a long time, how can there be a king with such a temperament in the world, in order to save trouble and be quiet, he actually gave the power that everyone covets to others." ”

Richel's words made Todd laugh.

He looked at the woman who was close at hand, recalled the bits and pieces of the two getting along, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the feeling that the other party gave him was really amazing.

Speaking of the body, Rachel does not have the Internet celebrity face and skinny of the women in her previous life, her appearance and figure are more in line with the classical aesthetics of the West. Graceful figure, white skin like jade, delicate and soft facial features.

But as the saying goes, good-looking skins are the same, and interesting souls are one in a thousand.

What attracts Todd most about this woman is that she is smart and mysterious.

Seeing Todd staring at him intently, Rachel leaned down and lay on top of him, two clumps of nephrite on his chest changing shapes, only to hear her chuckle and say, "Am I not right?

Todd, who came back to his senses, kissed the other party's lips lightly: "Even if what you say makes sense, I'm still busy every day......"

Rachel funnily pinched his nose, "Who is to blame for this? You obviously want to let go of everything wholeheartedly, but you are always called the emotion of responsibility, which controls your behavior. This makes you choose a difficult path again and again in order to save others and fulfill your promises. ”

Todd's eyes lost focus, he looked into the distance, and muttered, "Responsibility......?"

"I really don't understand, in another world, is everyone like you, or is you the only one who is a maverick?" Richer slowly lifted Todd's collar and kissed the other man's neck carefully: "Maybe it's this contradiction in you that is the biggest attraction to me." ”

Todd rolled his arms around him, rolled his body, and pressed Rachel under him, and just as he wanted to make another move, a coquettish sound drew him to look back.

After packing up her armor, Dildre, who had just come down from the second floor, happened to see this fragrant scene on the chaise longue, and was so frightened that she hurriedly covered her eyes with her hands and screamed shyly.

Richel, who was lying under Todd and couldn't move, first glanced at the former fiercely, then stretched out his pink and white arm, beckoned to Dildri, and said angrily: "What are you shouting about!

Looking at the white sun outside the window, Deirdri, who hesitated repeatedly, finally moved to the recliner step by step.

The bed is private, and the clouds and rain are resting for a while.

Todd glanced at the unconscious Dildri, took the mead handed by Rachel, sat on the fur carpet and took a sip lightly, and said, "I plan to take care of the affairs of the camp and go to the Holy Acropolis." ”

Richel, who was only wearing a light gauze, pinched the soft flesh on Todd's waist with his fingers with a dissatisfied face: "After venting the fire, you don't even have a warm word!"

Looking at Todd's apologetic face, Rachel sat in his arms and said generously: "Forget it, you said you were going to the Holy Acropolis, but you don't know what the situation is there." ”

"During this battle of Guhuo, I captured a deacon named Chapelfield. I learned from him the slave trader's code and organization, and with his shaping powers, I was able to use his identity to infiltrate the Holy Acropolis and the upper echelons of the Church. ”

Rachel leaned her back against Todd's chest and took a sip of the elixir in her cup: "This is indeed a solution, if there is only the Holy Acropolis and the Church guys, maybe you can really fool the past." But the intervention of the Council of Elders has made the situation in the Holy Acropolis even more dangerous, and you should know that there are all kinds of xenos in that organization, and you have no idea what their abilities are. ”

Todd nodded: "So, this trip to the Holy Acropolis, I need help." I met people from the Xenomorph Society in the Ancient City, and they helped me a lot, maybe there are people like that in the Holy Acropolis?"

"Don't overthink things. Rachel glanced back at Todd: "Among the northern kingdoms, the Elders' Church is the weakest in governance, so I can blatantly recruit helpers there, but the kingdom in the diocese, the Presbyterian Council is heavily managed, and it is very difficult to develop alien resisters in these places." ”

Todd sighed softly.

Rachel glanced at him: "Although there is no way to find enough helpers, there may be a way to find some contacts to understand the situation...... But there is a premise. ”

"What?"

"I must go with you to the Holy Acropolis. ”

Todd frowned, "You're going with me, but the camp still needs someone to manage it......"

Reicel seems to have planned everything: "The fleet of Twilight City will soon be back again, and in addition to the refugees of the Holy Acropolis, it will also bring a large number of administrators. They can take over everything that runs the camp...... Besides, don't you still have a "soul link"? ”

After thinking about Reichel's analysis carefully, Todd felt that it made sense, but he was still a little worried about the safety of the other party: "The current situation in the Holy Acropolis is unknown, if you go over, if you encounter danger, ......?"

"You're worried about my ability to protect myself?" Richer laughed, "How did I survive in the years before I met you, do you think that I relied on mere luck?"

Todd was at a loss for words, but at last he simply raised his hands and agreed to Richell's accompaniment.

"The victory in this battle may make the population of the Froststone Camp more than 10,000. Combined with the arrival of the Acropolis refugees who moved in soon after, the total population of the city would reach 15,000. Todd stretched out his arms and hugged Richel and said, "So many people, whether it be customs, residences, division of labor, or beliefs, have great differences, and how to manage them will be a big problem. ”

Snuggling into Todd's arms, Rachel felt as if her body and soul had entered a safe haven. She relaxed and whispered, "Well, so what?"

"Before we leave, I need to figure out a way to integrate people's relationships as quickly as possible. Todd buried his face in Richel's satin-like hair and took a deep breath, "But now ......"

Richel's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked behind him in surprise: "Hey, what are you doing?!, I really don't have the strength anymore...... Hmmm......"

Dildri, who was awakened by the movement around her, looked at the bright spring in front of her, quickly turned over, closed her eyes, and pretended to fall asleep again.
