084 There is always a continuation to an old story
"What is this...... Could it be the legendary exchange of the body for the freedom of the soul?"
"So to speak," the king pondered for a moment, agreeing with so-and-so, "the White Tower has exhausted its own strength to help the last remaining members of the Ark family survive this catastrophe, and the people who have been blessed by the tower have saved themselves at the cost of the companionship of warriors and the death of their bodies, in exchange for equal value." β
"By the way, I also helped the tower realize the great ideal of protecting the imperial power of the White Tower State......" XX answered.
The king nodded.
"That means that even if the army of demonic beasts enters the palace, as long as it doesn't threaten the king's life, those people in the White Tower won't come out?"
"So, there's no way they can go to Acacia?" asked so-and-so.
"If they could participate in the war, my White Tower Kingdom would have ruled the world a long time ago. The king's eyes flashed with lust for power, and he said confidently: "It doesn't hurt to tell you this, anyway, it's not a secret that those people can't go out of the mountain, it's all recorded in ancient books, but ordinary people don't go back to turn it over." β
I mean, why did you trust us so much all of a sudden...... So-and-so smashed his mouth in boredom.
"Since you want to go to Acacia, leave early," the king gestured as a send-off, "if you can, please help me out." β
Looking at the inconspicuous flush on the face of the paralyzed king, so-and-so became playful, and pretended to regret: "What's the use of seeing it, I still have to marry someone else's wife." β
But the joke struck Bradrick in the heart, and his face froze, and his lips moved but he didn't make a sound.
Lance bumped into so-and-so slightly to signal that she had spoken, and so-and-so reacted in time, but the words that were said could not be taken back, and so-and-so, who didn't want to endure the cold atmosphere, had to smile and pull Lance to salute and leave, and when she walked to the gate of the palace, she heard a sentence from the palace in the dark: "Even so, I only hope that she will marry ...... happily."
Before the words could be spoken, the door was closed.
So-and-so stared at these two red, iron and wooden doors hatefully, his hands kept moving as if he was going to fight, and he still had words in his mouth: "Give me back my romance script and bloody lines, bastard......"
Lance reluctantly walked over and dragged away the grinning so-and-so at the gate of the palace: "Go back and pack your luggage and strive to set off at night." β
"Can't you leave in the afternoon?" said so-and-so curiously.
"We have an arrangement for the afternoon," Lance smiled, "this afternoon is the day you have been waiting for the execution of the beheading. β
"Oh, yes!" a certain patted his head, remembering the incident. This afternoon is the beheading day of the leader of the demonic beast who attacked the palace, and so-and-so, who has never watched the beheading on the spot, has been curious for a long time, and he wants to see it every day, and today he is finally looking forward to it.
Looking at the jumping figure, Lance could only smile helplessly in the back, and no one noticed that his smile did not enter his eyes.
ββββββββI'm the dividing line used to transform the scene, heheββββββββββ
So-and-so, who had finally gotten rid of his girdle, was swaying forward in loose clothes on the street, while Lance was following so-and-so comfortably with his head in his hands and looking at the sky.
"Why do I think it's been a long time since I've been so relaxed shopping?" A certain person held the flower candy that was a specialty of the White Tower Country in one hand, and the barbecue meatballs in the other hand turned his head and looked at Lance with a smile.
Lance thought for a moment while chewing on the candy that so-and-so stuffed him, "Maybe it's because he is ordered to go shopping every time, right?"
"Makes sense!" So-and-so completely agrees with Lance's point of view: "I used to go shopping by listening to Liangyin's words, but I finally came out to perform a mission and listened to the persuasion of the officials to go shopping, and shopping is not even a pressure on me to buy clothes, this is really helpless!"
"No one but you will think that buying clothes is the end of the world. Lance laughed.
"Who said no," a certain pointed with his right hand: "Look at those innocent men waiting for their wives at the door of the store, and then look at those boyfriends who can only carry bags, which one does not have a helpless smile on his face, this is **naked force, exploitation, inhumane!"
"But they also do it to enjoy the good results of their wives or girlfriends when they are in a good mood," Lance smiled, "unlike somebody who can't enjoy it before, during, and after shopping." Are you really a woman?"
"Get out!" so-and-so feigned anger, and his right hand symbolically struck in the direction of Lance.
Lance also cooperated symbolically to dodge, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop snickering.
The scene is located in the central square of the imperial city, there is an ornamental guillotine on the square, in history it used to be a practical guillotine for beheading traitors, but due to the passage of time, the White Tower country gradually stabilized, and the traitorous bureaucrats in the country are gradually decreasing, and over time it has become a commemorative guillotine for sightseeing, but I didn't expect that this guillotine will come in handy again after many years.
It was still early before the time of execution, and the people around the square had not yet gathered, but scattered and chatted in twos and threes.
This calm atmosphere also made so-and-so, who had been in a noisy state just now, quickly calm down.
The corners of his mouth slowly disappeared from the smile, and so-and-so suddenly found that he unconsciously seemed to have regarded Lance as a part of his side, she could play with Lance like an old friend, stuff Lance with something she didn't like to eat, find Lance if she had difficulties, sit and wait for Lance to help her out, and even sleep in the same bed with Lance She didn't feel a sense of disobedience.
Habit is really a terrible thing, thinking that his existence in Lance has changed from resisting and complaining to relying on and fighting now, and he has become familiar with it unconsciously?
So-and-so couldn't help but look in the direction of Lance, who was munching candy while looking around at the environment, completely unaware of So-and-so's gaze.
From this point of view, Lance seems to really look okay, so-and-so thought in his heart, if you don't count Lance's occasional underbeat expression, just looking at the face and muscles can get a full score, the strength is high, very secure, the brain is easy to use, there is always a plan to have ideas, but the birth is unknown, the identity is unknown, and I don't know what Lance used to do, is it really an orphan......?
So-and-so's overly obvious gaze finally aroused Lance's curiosity: "What are you looking at, it can't be that you like me, right?"
So-and-so was awakened by this familiar tone of under-beating, and hurriedly put on a disdainful expression: "Cut, it's you, a weirdo who doesn't even know his family and true identity!"
Looking at the sudden and fierce reaction of so-and-so, Lance couldn't help but continue: "Didn't you say that mysterious people are the most attractive, if you know everything, how boring it would be." β
"You can't even find out Bradlick's information, maybe you're not a mystery person, you're a ****, right?"
Lance smiled and replied, "Your information is not the same and cannot be found, each other. β
