Annabelle turned her head sideways, a few strands of black hair on Li Fang's shoulder, and looked at her with teary eyes.

"Is it possible that we can save Quintina before they awaken, before Deborah and Heroda die?"

The people around her finally spoke, and there was a guilt in her eyes that couldn't be dissolved.

"Yes."

Li Fang nodded in acknowledgement, but continued: "But I don't want to take this risk, many big swords are missing, and no one is alive or dead, no matter how careful you are, it will definitely attract the attention of the organization." So even if you have to go, I'll stop you. ”

Annabelle was silent, she herself had only escaped from the Order's sight after awakening, but not every warrior could retain a single bit of sobriety after awakening, not to mention that most of them would rather die than wake up.

"As if I'm selfish, your safety is more important to me than anything else."

The almost straightforward love words were said so smoothly, maybe it was influenced by the awakened brother girl who visited today?

“…… I know, don't think about it all alone. ”

Annabelle put down the book in her hand, held a hand that was already much thicker than her palm, and rested her head lightly on Li Fang's shoulder, "I will endure it a little longer, and wait until we can go back to Rapole, and then use the resurrection armor to transform me back into a human." That way, it's fine. ”

Is this a commitment?

Li Fang couldn't control the joy on the ground, although it was something that seemed to take a long time to achieve, but he finally had a promise, a hope, didn't he?

He reached out to wipe the tears from Anna's face: "There will definitely be that day!" ”

"By the way, what Miriya said to me gave me a little inspiration, and I will trouble you to help me verify it for a while, if it works, then I can play a little role when you fight!"

"Well, just find something to do during this time." As if she was tired, Annabelle leaned on Li Fang's shoulder and closed her eyes.

Li Fang leaned his head sideways on Anna's lightly scented hair, and said slowly, "But we have to send that woman away first, in case she has any suspicions, it won't be good." ”

"En......"

Speaking like a subtle hum, Annabelle gradually sank into a soothing sleep.

It was already completely dark, and there was a whitish moonlight floating by the window, and on the fireplace side, the coals still shimmered crimson in the darkness.

Has she been worried all this time and hasn't slept well? Li Fang suddenly had a guess in his heart, but this guess was a little sweeter and understanding.

Gently silenced the innkeeper who brought dinner, signaling no, the most important thing in the quiet and windless night was to accompany Anna like this.

……

Octavia came to visit the next morning, as promised.

As yesterday, her demeanor was impeccable, gentle and amiable, and even if she knew that she was an awakened person who fed on humans, it would be strange in her heart that she was only wary and difficult to resent.

According to Anna, Octavia claims to have been collecting intelligence on the Abyssal Individuals and the Order, and it is unclear what they are used for.

The reason why she found it was because she had witnessed Annabelle and Li Fang going back and forth between the North and the West many times, and she happened to know that Liv Road seemed to have a new subordinate a few years ago, so she guessed that what she saw, the strange awakened person flying around in the sky, was a card that Liv Road had hidden for more than five years.

As for Octavia, Li Fang only has one impression of her, she was the NO.2 of a certain era.

Since she came for information, there should be no malice, and there is no need for conflict.

If you can show enough sincerity, then you can tell her something. Speaking of which, Li Fang had an idea in his heart, maybe he would ask her for it.

The three of them sat around the small round table, and Li Fang held the small cake brought by Octavia, which was said to be made by her own hands, and praised after tasting it: "The cake is delicious, thank you for your hospitality." ”

"No thanks, I'm glad to meet someone who compliments them." Octavia re-examined the young man in front of her, and it was the first time she had seen an ordinary person who could still speak in front of her without changing her face after knowing her identity.

But to be favored by a powerful awakened person, how can it not be extraordinary?

"Speaking of which, I have to apologize, I sometimes don't think about other people's feelings when I speak, and what I said yesterday was so offensive, and I'm really embarrassed to think about it now. So I made these pastries overnight after I went back, and I took them with me today to apologize. ”

"It's really hard to refuse this delicious apology," Li Fang smiled, "I don't know what you want to know behind such painstaking efforts?" ”

"Oh?" Octavia showed a slightly interested expression: "It's really straight to the point, do you know more information than Anna?." ”

The temperament like the sister next door made her smile full of intimacy, but Li Fang looked at Annabelle and said with a smile: "We traveled together when Anna was a soldier, and we know about the same things until now, but thanks to this trip, I also know a lot of the latest things." ”

"So if you want to know something, just talk to me, what do you want to know? And what are you going to exchange for equally? ”

In the same language as if talking about business, Li Fang smiled very politely.

"Why don't you ask me the purpose first?" As if by accident, Octavia's right index finger gently curled a strand of her side hair.

"Actually, I have kept in touch with several guys who are arrogant and don't want to be attached to others, and in addition to personal hobbies, they also work so hard to collect information to satisfy their 'exuberant' curiosity, and of course they will also give a little hard money."

"There is such a tacit understanding between us, after all, the only people in this land who can threaten us are the organization and those people of the abyss."

As she said this, Octavia showed a strong and restrained confidence, and she looked at Annabelle: "Don't bother each other, just take what you need, that's how we get along, and you should be aware of what the man in the north is going to do...... So, you don't seem to have much loyalty to Liv Road, have you ever thought about finding a few more allies for yourself and preparing an extra way back? ”

"A sincere invitation, countless shared intelligence, and a little 'meagre' material support, I don't know enough of what I know in exchange for these three things?"

After Octavia finished speaking, he took out a bag of cloth that was not light, and it seemed that it should contain money.

Even the awakened will have basic material needs, and it will be very troublesome to always rob homes and houses, kill people and steal goods, how can there be a refreshing pleasure to sit and collect money.
