Chapter 622: Odin Kills Himself
In Odin's words, he did not hide his resentment and ridicule for the emperor, Lin An did not answer his words, and looked at the environment in the palace.
When it was quiet, the low voice behind the high-backed chair became clear, like the sound of a knife scraping against the surface of wood, and it was very regular.
Lin An looked closely, and it was not difficult to notice that Odin's arm exposed outside the armrest moved, and a small wood chip fell on the ground near the foot of the chair, mixed with the thin ash on the ground.
"When you get here, you have cultivated yourself." Lin An's voice was slightly surprised.
"I always have to find something to do, not to mention that my good second brother is good at selling, just mention it, and he immediately sent it in." He said hoarsely.
Hearing this, Lin An raised his eyebrows lightly.
She was not surprised that Byron would meet Odin's needs, but she did not expect that Odin would have such leisure to play with wood carving.
She had been waiting for this meeting for a long time, and she knew that there would always be a time when this reckoning would end between them.
Before coming, Lin An thought about Odin's many attitudes and faces:
Exhausted, cynical, unruly, unwilling to be decadent, unwilling to die...... But I didn't think that it was so calm as if nothing had happened, especially after Lin An heard such a good show in the underground secret passage.
"I'm relieved to see that you're doing well." Lin An smiled slightly. If you don't know, I'm afraid you will really think that these two people are good friends.
The sound of scraping sawdust stopped.
"Do you know why I went out of my way to find you?" A deep male voice behind a high-backed chair asked.
"I don't know, but I do want to see you. So here it is. Lin An said lightly.
"It seems that we have a common opinion on this point - I, too, want to meet you."
Putting the carving knife and wood aside, I don't know where Odin moved. The high-backed chair slowly turned one hundred and eighty degrees, and the man's face was revealed in the light, allowing Lin An to see his face at this time for the first time tonight.
Compared with a few days ago, Odin's face has not changed much, the inevitable pale and haggard after a few days of not seeing the sun for a few days, the cheeks are slightly concave to make the cheekbones and eyebrow arches protrude, and the dark blue eyes are sunken in the deep eye sockets, I don't know if it is because of the angle of the light, as if there is a cluster of light beating in the depths of the pupils, with unusual excitement. A thin camel-colored blanket covered his knees. Cover him from the bottom of his abdomen.
His cold gaze stared at Lin An for a moment. Lin An could feel the trajectory of that gaze on her face, as if there was a painting pen to carve every line of her into his eyes.
A cold, cold-blooded scales gliding through the skin ran from the spine to the back of the head. Ling Lin An'an stood up goosebumps!
Fragments of that nightmare inevitably came to her mind, a feeling of disgust and nausea, which made it impossible for her to maintain this superficial calm, and her eyes flashed fiercely, and met the eyes that were so clear in the nightmare-
Phew!
The two realizations of spiritual power emitted from his eyes made a small sound of breaking the air in the air, and Odin snorted unexpectedly, and suddenly raised his hand to cover his eyes!
Two clear lines of blood still flowed from under his hidden palms, snaking down his grim countenance.
"I hate it when people look at me like that, it makes me want to gouge out my eyes." Lin An's gentle tone was as if he was saying that he wanted a glass of red wine.
"Hehe......"
Odin clutched his eyes tightly, and the pain made the bruises on his forehead appear. But he laughed inexplicably, the smile arc of his thin lips and the two blood lines under his eyes, as weird as a clown's makeup.
Lin An's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and then loosened:
It seems that she was mistaken, Odin is not calm, but has gone crazy at all, and it is obviously not a wise move to have a normal conversation in his state, but the purpose of her arrival tonight has been achieved, and there is nothing more satisfying to her than seeing Odin in his current state.
With that weird low laugh, Lin An looked at Odin who was reclining on the chair and trembling slightly, until he stopped.
"I've seen you, and it's time for me to go." This is a declarative sentence, after Lin An finished speaking, he brushed the corners of his sleeves, nodded calmly to Odin, and turned to leave.
Odin did not speak.
The vision was rendered into a bloody color by the blood flowing out, and through the gap between his fingers, he vaguely saw Lin An's calm and elegant back when he turned around:
Her posture was still full of allure for men, but it was no longer as easy to wake up his body as the portrait in his dormitory, and the place covered in the thin blanket of his lower abdomen, as cold and dead as the snow-covered Far North, filled his heart with despair.
"Ann...... My dear Ann ......"
The hoarse male voice was blocked in the hall by the heavy door, the blood line gradually solidified on the face, and the man's face slowly pulled out a desperate and strange look.
……
The carved door was closed tightly, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Byron's slightly delicate countenance.
"Aside from asking to see you, this is the second time I've heard his voice in a long time." Byron said with some complications, and before the door closed, he could hear a strange low laugh coming from inside.
"Hmph, hopefully not the last...... Look out for him, he probably won't live long. Lin An said lightly, Odin's body had already revealed a kind of dead silence and madness at the end of the road.
She didn't expect Odin to collapse so quickly, and in connection with Odin's various actions in this chess game, Lin An had a feeling that he was desperate and had been waiting for this day to come.
This made Lin An a little suspicious:
Come to think of it, in fact, with Odin's hole cards, if he doesn't choose to gamble on the length of his life with the emperor, Odin is not without a chance of winning;
But in this world, except for the emperor, Lin An didn't believe that anyone could force Odin to take the initiative to find death, and the only conclusion could only be that the man himself was crazy.
Succeeding or defeating, whether Odin lives or dies, he has no chance to turn over.
But for some reason, after using this meeting to settle this grudge. Lin Anxin didn't get completely relaxed, and there seemed to be a hint in his intuition that this entanglement didn't end.
With a slight doubt flashing in his eyes, Lin An glanced back at the carved door. Without any nostalgia, he turned and walked away.
On the top of the palace, Master Fran began to take in what happened inside from beginning to end after Lin An entered the gate, and at this time, he opened his eyes, glanced at Lin An's back disappearing on the path, and said in a deep voice to Byron below:
"Trauma medicine, send it in."
Byron was slightly startled, then understood, and his face tightened slightly, although he had drugs on him. But he didn't dare to be suspicious. Go out immediately and call someone.
The palace attendant went and returned. Soon the medicine brought was delivered, and Byron personally delivered the medicine inside.
……
Lin An returned to the collapsed palace in the Lenster, and the palace was as quiet as water in the night. The symphony of insects in the flower garden slowly relieved Lin An's mood bathed in the cool night breeze.
The palace attendant who led the way sent Lin An to the palace gate, then bowed and said goodbye, the palace was dark, and the servants had already gone back to sleep, only the pale white moonlight illuminated the way for Lin An.
Lin An walked into the palace along the main gate avenue, passing through a side hall closest to the main entrance, and there were lights shining through the hidden doorway.
Ranster heard footsteps, opened the door and walked out, just in time to bump into Lin An. The latter pouted with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, and his steps were a little leisurely dragging, like a night returnee who had just finished admiring the moonlight.
Lancet looked at it without a trace, and saw that the girl's face that had just been illuminated by the moonlight was quiet and soothing, and he relaxed his heart slightly, and did not say much, clapped his hands, and said to Lin An:
"The bathroom is ready, go back and have a good rest, good night."
With his gesture, he followed the maid behind him to take two steps and squatted down to salute Lin An.
"Good night to you, too, my friend." Lin Anxin was slightly warm, nodded and smiled at Lancet, and returned to the bed with the maid.
The warm hot water made the pores of his body dilute, and his muscles and bones were a little loose, Lin An felt a little tired, so he planned not to meditate tonight.
Set up a guard circle around the room, and said to Titi who ran to the hunting ground forest for a while in his heart, saying good night, Lin An covered the soft quilt and fell asleep.
But tonight was not destined to be a peaceful night, in the middle of the night, the vigilance circle around the room was touched, and Lin An woke up from his sleep.
Because of the habit developed on the ice field, the sense of chaos only stayed in Lin An's mind for a second or two, and after opening his eyes, Lin An's eyes were already clear.
The trigger defense ornaments on the body are all there, raise your hand and put a defensive shield first, the pajama-style robe is stretched into the style of the robe that usually goes out, Lin An sat up from the bed, and found that it was the guard circle at the door that was touched, and from the first day of staying, Lin An warned that if you have nothing to look for her at night, you should not walk through the corridor in front of the door.
Listening closely, there was a gentle footstep outside the door.
Soon after, there was two knocks on the door, and the voice of the maid came:
"Your Excellency, the Grand Duke, please come over."
"Wait a minute." Lin An immediately replied that Lancet would not call her in the middle of the night if he was fine.
The shield was dispersed, and only a short time later, Lin An opened the door under the surprised gaze of the maid.
In the middle of the night, after picking up the rhymes and thoughts about the Grand Duke and His Excellency the Lady of the amazing beauty, the maid turned red and hurriedly took Lin An to a small hall adjacent to Ranster's bedroom.
The hall was brightly lit, and the well-dressed and sober Lancet was with an unseen guard, who was bowing slightly and speaking to Lancet, who was sitting on the sofa.
Lin An couldn't see the look of the guard who had his back to her, but he could sense his anxious expression.
The two of them heard the footsteps of Lin An and the maid, and immediately looked over.
"Your Excellency the Baroness, in Lower Shufat, is the personal guard of His Highness Byron."
As soon as he saw Lin An, Shufate didn't need to be introduced, he had already confirmed Lin An's identity.
Waiting for no one to leave the small hall, as soon as the door was closed, Shufat immediately took the first step, stepped forward to introduce himself, and at the same time took out the identification certificate handed over to him by Byron, and without waiting for Lin An to verify, he had already said hurriedly:
"Your Excellency, His Highness Odin has committed suicide!"
