Darius stood up and prepared to leave, now that he knew everything, there was no need for him to stay here. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing his movements, Andrea's voice sounded again, "What, is this leaving?" ”

"Hmph, otherwise, stay here and be brainwashed by you? If you provoke me like this again, I'm afraid I can't help but want to kill you again. Darius said coldly.

Andrea's eyes were full of playfulness, and Darius's threats didn't work at all for her: "Brainwashing? What is this statement? I'm not a telemagician, and you're strong-willed, and you're not a fool to manipulate at will. But then again, my vow is still valid, and although I don't think what you did was a favor to me but a transaction, there is also a principle of transaction, and if you help me, I must be paid. ”

"What? Counting me again? ”

Andrea didn't seem to hear the thorny meaning of Darius's words, and she continued: "That [Quetzalcoatl] of yours should be the trophy obtained by killing Quetzalcoatl, right? But you can't use it right now, can you? I can help you unblock it, as a reward for you. ”

Darius admits that when he heard Andrea's words, he felt a little moved in his heart, this epic quality bracelet was his best piece of equipment, and if he could lift the equipment restrictions, the benefits to him would be immeasurable, but after so many things, he couldn't guess how much of her words were true and how much was false.

Darius turned his gaze to his hand, the bracelet of the two snakes was tightly wrapped around his wrist, and he demonstratively showed her the wrist and said, "How do you know I can't use it?" Do you think I'll ever trust you again? ”

Andrea gracefully lifted her long, slender legs, like a noble maiden rather than an adventurer in danger, and she slowly stepped out of bed and stood in front of Darius under his guarded gaze.

"What are you afraid of? This is the fortress of your garrison, can I still be against you on your territory? I'm wounded now, and I don't have a weapon, and I have my wounds cracked again when you did that to me. Is this me worth your beware? ”

With that, she reached out and took Darius' left hand with the bracelet on it, staring closely at the [Quetzalcoatl Bracelet] on his hand.

"See, this faint rune brilliance, gray means it's in a sealed state, you're afraid you can't even use half of its power, right? I'm a shadow walker, a top stalker, treasure hunting, unlocking, trap elimination, item identification, these are all things I'm good at. You can't fool me, think about it, the big war is coming, the more strength you have, the more chance you have to survive, don't let timidity become a stumbling block on your growth path. ”

Darius shook off Andrea's hand, and after thinking for a moment, he replied, "Caution and cowardice are two different things, especially you, I agree with your suggestion, but not now, wait until I go and get Vester here, you have nothing to trust in my heart." ”

"That half-mage apprentice? No problem, but I advise you to hurry, you are about to go to war here, I have no obligation to help you defend the city, and I will leave as soon as I am healed, and you can't complain that I will not pay the honorarium. ”

Darius took a deep look at this woman who had brought him countless troubles, although her beauty was fascinating, but her danger and evil should not be underestimated, I am afraid that it would be difficult for him to forget this face, this bewitching black mandala, if he didn't kill her, I don't know if this would be his most wrong decision.

Then he turned around and left the place.

There was a tense and murderous atmosphere in the fortress now, and a depressing and dreary atmosphere enveloped everyone, and the soldiers Darius met along the way were all in a hurry, and everyone knew what they were going to face next.

When he returned to the First Swordsman Battalion in the fortress, Darius remembered that he should go to Bard to get his life, so he inquired again and went to Bud's office.

Bard still looked serious, but Darius felt that he was much haggard, which was extraordinary. With the improvement of Darius's strength, his eyesight has also sharpened, and he can now feel more and more what kind of strong man his battalion commander is, and the majestic and heavy aura emanates from his body, for such a person, it is not difficult to not rest for many days in a row, so that such a person shows fatigue, indicating that the situation has reached a very tense point.

Darius straightened up and fixed himself in front of Bard like a sharp sword: "Lord Bud, Second Detachment Darius will return to you. ”

A subtle smile appeared on Bard's stone-like face, "Oh, it's Darius? I heard Dermons say you're in trouble, but now it looks like you've solved it? That's great news, you're fine, right? ”

"I was unlucky enough to encounter a difficult monster, but with the protection of the Father and the mountains, I was able to escape, and on the way back I met Lord Tassos, and together we attacked the Nightshade clan, and then I came back with the wounded of the cavalry."

Three or two sentences reported what had happened during this time to Bud, and then he saw the stocky man look pensive.

"The 'Night Shadow' clan? Even they're already here? I remember that Tassos had just set off, so the place where you met the 'Nightshade' clan was not far from the fortress? ”

Seeing that Darius was a little puzzled, he said slowly: "The habitat of the 'Night Shadow' clan is far away from our defense area, and in previous years, they usually did not come to us to touch the mold, but I didn't expect that this year, the Black Flame Priestess Angela Shatterclaw gathered so many troops, what happened?" “

Bard suddenly realized that it was not appropriate to show his agitation in front of his subordinates, so he said to Darius with a straight face: "It's good to come back, I can also assign you tasks." Although there are many lizardmen, the defense of the fortress is not to be seen. As long as you work hard, no enemy is invincible. “

"You rest for a day, and tomorrow at noon, you take all your men, and I will take you to familiarize yourself with the defense area. Everyone has to arrive, remember? “

"I see, Lord Budd."

Darius gave a military salute and stepped out of Bard's sight.
