"So what? She was always a woman, and she could not add another heir to the York family. {We don't write novels, we're just web text porters-"

"Do you think Terrence doesn't understand this?" Vanessa smiled in the dark, "The treasure he bet on is not on the heir, but on Old York." ”

"You mean," Rogge gasped, then immediately spat out in disgust, "York to his daughter—"

"Yes." Vanessa raised her chin, "Old York's love for his daughter is a hundred times greater than for his lonely son!" And Lexie loves her brother much more than she dislikes her father. She chuckled, "What's wrong with the world?" It's all messed up. However, it is best to do this, so that people with a mind can better control the situation. ”

"You've long since seen what King Terrence meant?" Rogge's tone was admiring.

"Reina found it." Vanessa frowned, remembering that Reina was still outside the Sanctuary with the Imperial Guards, wondering what was going on with him. "He heard old York on his knees crying and begging Lexie to get out of Terrence, and saying that he couldn't breathe without her, ah, it was disgusting!"

Rogge apparently feels the same way. After a pause, he continued to ask, "But how do you know that this tunnel leads to the Fire Dragon Village?" What if it only leads to the back garden of the palace or to the entrance of the temple? There were only a few of us, and with Julien and the squeaky Miss York, we-"

"Do you smell the smell of heavy oil in the air?" Vanessa interrupted, "I bet this tunnel leads to a tributary of the underground oil well in Fire Dragon Village, and the Lord of York is waiting not far ahead to meet his dear daughter. It seemed that he would not be done without explaining it to him, Vanessa brought her mouth to Rog's ear, "Old York was forced by me to hand over the money to ransom his daughter, and the exchange place is at the end of this secret passage. ”

"It seems that for the sake of his daughter, he even betrayed the most secret secret passage of the Burning Flame Country." Rogge sneered, "But are you afraid that he'll ambush us here?" ”

Vanessa raised her chin in front of her, "His daughter is at the forefront, and if he dares to have an ambush, then Lexi will consider herself unlucky." ”

"Die at your hands or at the hands of her own father, I believe she would rather choose the latter." Rogge stiffened his tone. It seems that he does not agree with Vanessa's approach, but he is trapped here, and he can only obey the queen's orders.

"Sir Sir, now is not the time to do good deeds." Vanessa heard a voice from ahead and walked quickly to the front of the line, "What's the matter?" ”

"Your Majesty, there's light ahead!" Xue Lanwei pointed to the end of the tunnel and said, there, a faint light was bright and flickering, as if it was playing an unknown signal.

Vanessa sniffed, the smell of heavy oil here was getting stronger and stronger, and they didn't dare to light a fire here; And this place is out of the confines of the Flame Sanctuary, and they are supposed to be using magic crystals to signal themselves.

"Three long, three short, two long and one short." Rogge stepped forward and counted, "They're asking, who's coming." ”

Vanessa twisted Lexie's fat arm and squeezed her armpit, and Miss York screamed, her voice echoing through the tunnel, and her hurried curses for a long time.

"Now they know who we are." Vanessa looked back and smiled at Rogge.

**************************************************

Vanessa's first sight of the York-ruled Fire Dragon Village turned out to be built at the end of this deep tunnel! Like a tree growing upside down, the dark oil is like a leaf growing between the branches, and as soon as a leaf takes shape, dangling into the shape of a droplet, someone walks through the branch and picks it. The Archduke of York's men whipped the slaves and prisoners to work for themselves, and figures swayed from one passage to the next. And those glittering spires, the beautiful balconies in the center of the tree trunks, the magic lanterns floating above the city, and the bridge that spans the air, connect one forest after another. They meander and stretch as far as the eye can see.

"Welcome, Her Majesty." The Grand Duke of York raised his right hand and placed it in the position of his heart, and there was no panic in his tone.

Vanessa and Rogge looked at each other in the dark. What's wrong with this old guy, is it because he has arrived at his home stadium and his momentum has grown? "Duke of York, at your request, I have sent Ling Yan safely to the place you have designated, and now, please fulfill your oath and give me the wealth I want."

"All the wealth you want is behind me, and I am willing to break my family in exchange for my only daughter." York stretched out his hand and pointed at the dark heavy oil behind him, a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes.

"It's、I know your family has guarded the Dark Heavy Oil Spring for generations, but what's the use of me with these sticky things? It is not like gold, which can be exchanged all over the world, nor like the beauty of your daughter, which can be exchanged for the favor of kings, so that people can live without worry; Even if you crush the Fire Dragon Village and turn it into a magic ball, I won't be blessed. ”

"What I want to say is," York instantly changed his usual flattery, sternly stood up, and shouted sharply, "Vanessa from the country of midsummer? Delin! This is your cage, the end point of your years to come! You charm the king, and finally got the end you deserve in my Fire Dragon Village! With that, with a wave of his hand, something spread from under the roots of the shafts behind him, like a huge, hungry snake! The thing sizzled and gurgled tirelessly towards the queen, whispering like a spell.

Whispering voice...... Like, the gushing sound of a dark heavy oil spring? The body of the mysterious monster is always blurry and unfocused, and sometimes, it is translucent. It was lunging towards Vanessa's group, giggling triumphantly, countless fingers scratching in midair. Its target is definitely the queen, there is no doubt about that. But what is it? Elven guards? Or is it some monster zombie controlled by ancient magic? Whatever it was, its intentions were clear, and those claws seemed like enough to kill a person.

Vanessa almost retreated, but the thing looked fascinating, one part of its body looking clumsy and slippery like a snake, and the other part looking like a vortex of countless spells. The eyes kept rolling over the changing body. Paw! Caught them, they were still far away, but they still made Vanessa feel a grotesque and numbing tingle.

What am I going to do?
