The next morning, you slowly opened your eyes.

You're in a clean, bright bedroom, covered with fluffy sheets, resting on a silky warm knee pillow, a pair of slender silver hands rubbing your cheeks. Angel lowered her head, looked down directly above you, and muttered, "You're awake." ”

A pair of broad wings that glowed with divine fluorescence gradually spread out from the bulbous protective posture. Angel didn't look the same as before, her wings were larger, the light emitted from her body was more obvious, and only the golden glow was left in her eyes.

"Ah, master, you ...... at last!"

As soon as the white wings spread, Annette pounces on the bedside and wraps her arms around your neck, so that you are about to sit up and lie down again. You can't see Annette's expression, just feel a warm snort and hot dampness in your chest. As she sobbed, her back was messily undulating.

Looking around, this bedroom has never been seen before, but judging by the translucent humanoid object in the corner that is slowly moving to wipe the floor, it should be who created the "Offa Mansion", probably Annette. The interior space of the half-plane building can be maintained for many years, suitable for habitation and more suitable for hiding and recuperation, but there is a limit to the number of people entering and leaving. I vaguely remember drinking poisoned wine, and then almost died, and from the fact that there were only two guards around me, it should be the "Arcane Mansion".

You sit up,

Make sure you're in good health. Poisoned wine left no sequelae.

"I'm awake. I really can't stand the two of them, one wears the ring you gave and only needs to sleep for two hours a day, and the other doesn't need sleep at all. "Suddenly, on your left side of the bed, a dark-haired girl sat up straight, stretched, and rubbed her sleepy eyes, and you didn't notice that there was still someone on the left side of the bed napping," ...... President, why do you look like you've seen a ghost?"

Sighing, the black-haired girl pointed at herself with her index finger and said helplessly: "...... Linda. ”

After all, the number of times you can enter and leave the "Offa Mansion" is limited, and when you're unconscious, the number of bed companions becomes hot, and with the exception of a few guys who are not very good at taking care of people, they all use guessing to decide the winner - Fialtin, Coco, Melanie, and Fmy have all come to stay in bed, but you just happen to be awake when it is Angel and Linda's turn. Everyone else has seen you but not you, the legendary Hathaway's cousin. It's not as good as twins, but they look alike.

She's finally willing to show up? Why? It's the end of the world?

"If you have to give a reason...... Linda replied, looking at the ceiling with one hand on her cheek, "because you're about to leave the guild?"

What!

What's the fun?

They ask you how much you remember about what happened at the banquet before, at least ninety percent of what happened before you lost consciousness.

·

The night before yesterday, all kinds of hidden dangers and contradictions were piled up to a certain extent and even forced the adults to come, and to put it bluntly, the so-called banquet was full of all kinds of fake smiles and other sounds, and the atmosphere was uncomfortable. As if to put an end to the unpleasant topic, you raise a glass to everyone, to the kingdom.

It happened quite suddenly,

The wine glass in Tong En's hand suddenly fell to the ground and shattered, and the whole person collapsed to the ground like a broken marionette. Now that I analyze it, I drank it at the same time, but Tong En was poisoned before you, probably because the gap between her and you's physique value was too great. With sporadic exclamations, almost everyone's eyes turned to Tong Eun, who fell to the ground and convulsed, and his whole body was emitting a dark ominous energy, and several priests led by Julian quickly pounced to try to heal. Some people reacted quickly, others reacted slowly, and the banquet became chaotic in an instant, with searches, guards, blockades, shouting, and spells abounding.

You react faster than anyone else,

It's simply miraculous,

Immediately reach for the blood barnacle that was close at hand—a strange object, similar to a tortoise shield or shield tortoise. No one told you what happened at the scene, no one told you that you were poisoned too, no one even paid attention to you, and the most unfortunate thing was that the powerful holy priests, including the Pope and the retired old bishop, were all around Tong En, that is, there was not even half a powerful healer left around you. Really, it's a complete miracle that he didn't die.

Survival instinct?

Crisis awareness?

Gut feeling?

In any case, after you drank the wine, you saw Tong En fall, and immediately grabbed the turtle shield of the blood barnacle change, and with the performance tested before, the "legendary immunity" once a day resisted the poison!

Strictly speaking, it is the Blood Barnacle that sucks the pitch-black energy from your arm, and in turn takes some of the damage from the poisoned wine for you.

Later, it was discovered that the poison in the wine was a special concoction used to make the "Dragon Lich" - it contained seven ingredients such as manipulating evil dragon elixir, invincible potion, and vampire blood. It is worth mentioning that if you die as a result, you cannot be resurrected without a miracle-level spell. The thing you drank with Tong En was originally used to turn monsters like the Black Dragon into undead creatures, and it was extremely poisonous. Maybe it's to hinder the resurrection, or maybe it's to turn you and Tong En into undead creatures and manipulate them, who knows what the poisoned guy is thinking.

When you lose your strength and fall to the floor, all that remains in your vision is Melanie's surprised expression.

She flew at full speed towards you, in the manner that only a vampire would do, and then bit down on the side of your neck, trying to suck the venom out, and coincidentally, the dragon lich concoction contained vampire blood, which Melanie dissolved and sucked most of the toxins out. Vampires are immune to poison.

I don't care if Tong En lives or dies, or I don't care what the noise is going on over there, there are only two people around you.

Melanie's easy-goingness, kindness, grace, and intellect are all based on bad racial instincts, and in essence, she really doesn't care about anyone but you. Tong En suddenly collapsed? Maybe it was poisoned wine? Maybe it was an emergency? Anyway, several priests had passed, and it had nothing to do with me. Because of this, she stayed where she was, looking at you secretly as always.

The other is Angel. Why should she care about mortals? The rest of the toxins in your body are basically lifted by her spells.

thereupon

A vampire who walks in the sun on weekdays is deeply disguised, and his identity is instantly revealed, and another ordinary situation will be disguised as a human race, and the angel with silver skin, golden eyes, and white wings who has never shown his silver skin and white wings throughout the banquet will also reveal his true identity. The head of the Eland clan can't tolerate you raising vampires, and the Vaal Pope has confirmed the rumors of angels serving you...... Would she tolerate the existence of an artificial demigod?

It's messed up.

Elander was still somewhat reserved, but he drew his sword and pointed it at Melanie, warning her to stay away from you immediately, Pope Vaal stood in place, his kind and gentle smile full of murderous intent, staring at you who was being held in Anqi's arms, and Swanai picked up an innocent territorial attendant who was in charge of handing Tong En red wine, causing his feet to lift off the ground and his face was cyanotic.

At this point, only a dozen seconds have passed, and many people have not yet reacted to what is happening. Eighty percent of the people are focused on the vicinity of Tongen, and the rest are looking at you.

The chaos was yet to come - Shanting did what she was supposed to do, throwing the chains out of the way she had done when she had captured the peep mage, trying to bring the poisoner hiding somewhere to justice.

Poisoned,

It definitely won't go far.

Maybe disguised as an acolyte, maybe hidden in the shadows, or maybe just one of the people attending the banquet, the chains should be able to easily track the target and tie them down. As it should be.

Unexpectedly, the chain was thrown out and gradually disappeared into the void after only two meters, and with Shanting tugging violently!

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

Shanting and the masked man all froze in place, staring at each other. The former didn't expect that the other party actually used a spell, hid in the etheric plane, and stood in the banquet hall to peep at everyone, and others, including the head of Elander, couldn't notice him, because it was not stealthy or stealthy at all, and the latter had never seen this kind of chain, so he was suddenly tied up, and then dragged back to the main material plane to manifest.

Dressed in blood-red and black masked tights, he was the size of a Terran male, 1.7 meters strong and slightly thin, looking a lot like a wanderer or an assassin. Unfortunately, at this moment, no one noticed that Shanting had caught the culprit of poisoning.

Twisting his body, the chains loosened and fell to the ground, extremely weird, the masked man broke free from the restraints, and it was easy.

Hearing the sound of chains, Hathaway looked back at the masked man and was stunned: "Why?"

"You and I have not torn the meeting to ruin and tell you to leave, and the lawsuit has been made to the omission association to eliminate the appointment to you. He narrowed his eyes and turned his head to stare at Hathaway, "This is my heavenly meeting to find blood and death?" ”

It could also be that you're lying on the ground and losing consciousness and can't hear what he's saying.

Hathaway grabbed the placket of his chest with both hands, and shouted with all her might: "And this is not only not all about listening to the mistake that you will be closed!

Surprisingly, Hathaway was also communicating with each other in a foreign language. Then you lose consciousness.

I slept for a day and a night, but I didn't feel hungry.

Annette ran to bring breakfast: "You haven't eaten for a day and a night, although you can barely feed some water." Do you have an appetite?"Despite having an appetite, it's true that I'm not hungry.

"He didn't need to eat and sleep at all, otherwise how I was born. Angel said, "From the moment I became a demigod, I was immortalized. "No, no, food should be eaten or eaten, and beautiful women should sleep or sleep.

Linda shook her head and corrected, "It's not a foreign language, it's a black language." ”

"The masked man and Hathaway spoke so fast, I heard it but I didn't have time to translate, after all, this kind of black language that can only be used to write can be blurted out, and I guess few people can do it. There weren't many people in the guild who were good at black language, Elizabeth didn't react in time like me, Elika hadn't heard of it because there were so many kinds of black words, Melanie probably knew it, but she was all focused on you, and the only one who had the best hope of understanding was Tong Eun, but it just so happened that she was foaming at the mouth and convulsing all over her body. ”

"Of course I asked, but Hathaway wouldn't say anything. Linda sighed, her expression somewhat similar to her cousin's, "Anyway, Hathaway is ready to leave the guild, and of course I'll be with her." ”

Angel didn't seem to care. Annette asked, "Why? I thought Miss Hathaway was born a member of the guild and died a ghost of the guild." ”

"If you care, it's messy......"

Linda got up from your bedside, took a few steps back, and then bowed and kowtowed to you solemnly!

When Linda was helped up by Annette, she said to you with a straight look, "I beg you, President, do something, to Hathaway." ”

"I'm not sure when Hathaway started, probably before she left Five Lane Bay, and her behavior became more and more erratic. It's just my guess that she has been deliberately transitioning herself to the second tier lately, retreating into the background, trying to entrust the guild to Tong En and the others. Just before the banquet began, she suddenly told me that she was leaving the guild, which instantly confirmed her previous suspicions, and she had already planned to leave. This is not normal. ”

"I know that Hathaway has been under a lot of pressure lately—she's a true Saudi-Ranger, our homeland, and now a war is imminent, she's constantly denying that she likes you, she's not exclusive and uncomfortable, and she doesn't know how to adjust her mood like Fiertin and the others, and her only best friend is now gray-haired and degenerated into a dark shepherd, who she sees but can't do anything about it. None of this seems to be the reason for Hathaway's decision to leave the guild, after all, you are working for peace between the two countries, and you have always cared about her, and Lord Shanting has at least been rescued. ”

Linda held out a finger: "Here are my assumptions. ”

"Why poison Tong En and not someone else? Because on that day, Tong En did something that no one else had done - posted a task list about the Scarlet Punisher. The Masked Man is a member of the "Scarlet Punisher", and has been in contact with Hathaway before, probably using the guild as a threat, and demanding her secrecy. So she didn't even tell me about it. ”

"Does coercing Hathaway to leave the guild have any interest in the Scarlet Punisher? She is not the pillar of the guild, nor the backbone of the territory, and the attitude of the banquet may not be aimed at the guild at all. There was only one possibility left to I could think of. ”

Annette chimed in, "...... Could it be that he is the daughter of the Duke of Saudi Arabia?"

"That's all there is to it. Linda nodded, "The Scarlet Punisher wants Hathaway to leave the Guild and perhaps go to the Sand Country, or somewhere else, to make a fuss about her bloodline, just as the two countries are about to go to war. In any case, this "article" will not be too small. Also, about the masked man who poisoned him, I found a little eyebrows. ”

Linda hands you a page of confession.

Baron Roberts Doug was also questioned by the law enforcement team after the Inquisition incident, including the fact that "the evil army of the dungeon tried to win him over, manipulated the nezumi clan, and attacked the ancient city with the inside and outside", and the baron's undead briefly described the appearance of the dungeon messenger - the red and black tights, very similar to the masked man who poisoned the banquet. At the time, the racist baron refused to woo.

Just like Hathaway laughed at herself at the beginning, if she had strong decision-making power, she would be the president herself. Now the entire guild and you are being used as a bargaining chip by the Scarlet Punisher, leaving Hathaway so confused that she can't even turn to anyone for help.

If she could tell her directly, she wouldn't have had so much trouble.

What are you going to do before Hathaway does something stupid?

A, preemptively make a fuss about Hathaway's identity, so that the "Scarlet Punisher" is unprofitable on her.

B, try to negotiate with the masked man, and if you are being watched, it is not difficult to ask him to show up.

C, forcibly retained, and the rest will be talked about.

D, it's good to go or not.
