I couldn't see anything in the darkness, the shadows were intertwined, the muffled sound of limbs colliding, the sound of water bottles falling to the ground, everything happened in the electric light. My throat was dry, but my palms were sweating wildly.

It was only a few seconds, but I felt like half a lifetime had passed.

Then, Andos's grip on my arm suddenly loosened. My body suddenly lost its support, and I didn't even have the strength to stand on my own, and slid limply against the wall. Immorton pounced on me and picked me up: "Elsis! Are you hurt? ”

"I'm fine, he didn't hurt me......" I felt like I couldn't breathe: "What about you, you, how are you?" ”

He hugged me and comfortingly stroked my neck, shoulders and back to help me calm down: "You forget, I'm fine." Well? ”

I breathed a long sigh of relief, only to feel that my hands and feet were sore, and I couldn't move: "Didn't I forget...... It's that kind of life and death situation, how can I think about it so much, just worrying, I can't move now, please, help. ”

Immorton picked me up and put me on the bed, covered my haphazardly wrapped skirt for me, and even whispered to me, "It's a pity that the water has spilled." ”

"Ah," I was slightly surprised, "Andos, is he still alive?" ”

"Well, dizzy."

"The guards must be able to hear the movement here, and they will come in a blink of an eye, you go and stop them."

Immorton agreed, and I could already hear the heavy footsteps of the guards rapidly approaching the inner sanctum. Immorton went out and spoke, only to accidentally knock over the water bottle, nothing mattered.

I straightened my clothes, and my hands were trembling with my skirt, and I couldn't tie them up, so I could only tie them loosely.

The guards did not disperse at once, but one of the female officers brought in me and saluted me before leaving.

It's not that they don't believe in Immorton, it's just that the palace has not been peaceful recently. If I had any chance, they would have been lucky enough for their vigil to be martyred.

I turned around, and they couldn't see that Andoris was lying alone on the ground, and Immorton beckoned from behind the curtain, and I picked up the lotus lampstand and walked over to see it, and Immorton was very quick and dragged him behind the pillar.

Immorton walked to the side door and gently rang the bell, and in a moment a man with a face wrapped in a black cloth came, and Immorton whispered a few words, and the man took the order.

"I don't want to be too public...... "I know that Immorton is telling people to be on guard and search for the Assassins.

But...... I don't want to make a big deal out of it.

Immorton said, "I know, so I didn't order the guards, but let people go and whisper, and everyone who doesn't make noise knows it." After all, I don't want him to die like that. ”

I patted my chest with one hand: "Scared me to death...... The heart was pounding uncomfortably, as if it was about to burst and jump out. ”

Immorton took the lampstand and set it aside, and gently clasped my hand together with both hands.

His palms are large, powerful, gentle and dry, reassuring and reliable.

On his wrist, the scorpion-shaped golden bracelet shone with a dull black light, and I felt strange every time I saw it, but it was already a part of Immorton's body, and there was no way to remove it, and it could not be removed.

"I'll be fine."

I glanced at Andos, who was curled up there in a groggy way, "What's wrong with him?" ”

"I shouldn't wake up before dawn." Immorton said: "Actually...... I don't think he knew it was me who came in. ”

"Huh?" I looked up at him.

Immorton said, "This is your abode...... He must have come for Pharaoh, and made me King Memphis. ”

Yes......

There is a good chance that what Immorton said is true.

Even in the palace, the relationship between me, Immorton and Memphis is confusing, and it is impossible for idlers to figure it out. Only the female officers like Allen, who serve me closely, and the most core guards on duty, know a thing or two. But sometimes I look at Alan's expression, and obviously she is also speculating if there is something hidden in a place she doesn't know.

"But how did Andostat end up here? He ......" I paused, "How could he come to be an assassin?" ”

"What's so hard to guess about?" Immorton stopped halfway through speaking, and Alan brought in water again, and we kept silent. When she went out, I said, "Is it the Queen Mother of Minoa......?"

"Who else but her could command Andos?"

I nodded, feeling sad.

Andos still has an instinctive desire for his mother's love. The Queen Mother's command, although he would disagree, did not approve in his heart, and even opposed. Still, he listened to her.

The Queen Mother of Minoa is also desperate, right? She asked Andos to come to Egypt, and it was estimated that there was no other way. Memphis made a strong comeback to power, and frequently targeted Minoa. The military port of Sacred Fire Island in Minoa was exposed and destroyed, and there were many crises at home and abroad......

Although the name of the maritime power of Minoa is very bluffing, its weakness is also fatal. Once someone is caught, there is actually no way out for Minoa. You know, they can't even feed themselves on the island, and the enemies around them are waiting to take advantage of the opportunity. The Mickenny, in particular, thought day and night that they could destroy Minoa and replace it.

Andos's strength was astonishing, and he was extremely agile in the darkness, and the Queen Mother of Minoa should have hoped that he would be able to kill Memphis in one fell swoop, taking advantage of the great chaos of the Egyptian dragons, and the blockade and persecution of them should be relaxed.

Immorton and I looked at each other.

"That'...... Andostat, how to deal with it? ”

I don't want to kill him.

I've seen too many deaths, but ...... If he still wants to assassinate Memphis, how can I leave this hidden danger behind?

The thought of him calling my name softly and fluently makes me feel ...... There was a slight tingling sensation. He could have killed me silently, but he didn't......

Acquaintances, one by one, left me.

If possible, I hope, to spare Andos' life.

"I don't want to kill him, after all, he ...... He is kind and righteous to us, and those hatreds are none of his business. Immorton said, but he paused and added, "But his character is ...... I still understand that if he decides to do something, he will not look back. Keeping him is a big threat to Memphis. You must know that the few hands we exchanged just now, if it weren't for the fact that I had this bracelet, if it weren't for the fact that my strength was far beyond ordinary people, this would never be the case now. If it were Memphis, I'm afraid it would ......."

I'm afraid he didn't say anything, and I certainly don't understand what he means.

"So, is there anything you can do?"

Immorton thought for a moment: "How...... Maybe there's one. But I'm not sure if I can do it, so I'll have him tied up first, and let me think about it again. ”
