Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Secret Passage

Because it is artificial rainfall, in order to make it easier for people to plan their travel time, Noxus officially stipulates the time of rainfall and posts announcements on various streets in the middle and bottom areas. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Of course, this work cannot be executed so perfectly in the ground floor.

At least around the Blades, there are no announcements.

However, after the first and second days of rain, Bertina still figured out the pattern of rainfall timing. Tickets for the gladiatorial tournament are on sale on the third day.

On this day, Bertina calculated the time and went to buy tickets early. According to her, if you want to leave Noxus with more confidence, you have to buy the right seat.

However, all this was left to Bertina to do, and Lin Zhao did not participate. In the past few days, Lin Zhao's only job has been to constantly knock Alona unconscious.

He is only responsible for ensuring that Alona's heartbeat and breathing are normal, and that her skin is still warm, so that's fine, as for whether Alona, who has been knocked on the head by him over and over again, will have any internal injuries or mental problems, it is not within his consideration.

Or rather, better that way. He didn't want to be in trouble when the time came.

On the evening of the third day, Bertina had not returned, and Tang Yuan saw that Lin Zhao was guarding Alona, so he went to cook by himself.

Lin Zhao sat and meditated in front of Alona, interrupting his state from time to time to take a look at Alona's situation. When he opened his eyes again, he suddenly noticed that Alona's eyelashes moved slightly. He immediately understood that Alona had woken up, but he was fed up with the slaps he had received again and again, and even if he woke up, he didn't dare to open his eyes and continued to pretend to be unconscious.

"The way you look makes me feel like a bastard."

Lin Zhao sighed, although he said this, he showed no mercy in his hand, and waved it with another hand knife.

"Ahh

Alona exclaimed, her eyes widening for a moment, her pupils full of panic, reflecting the side of her hand that had grown larger and closer in an instant.

Then, she fainted again.

"Aren't you going too far?" Tang Yuan had just come over after cooking, and happened to see this scene, "She has been like this for the past few days, and she can only wake up when she eats." She doesn't have any force, so we don't have to do that to her, do we? Isn't it okay to just tie her up? ”

"Or give her to you? Let me see if you can stick to your thoughts and not be confused by her under her spring-like tongue? Lin Zhao said.

Tang Yuan thought about it for a while, but still shook his head.

"Then you try to be as light as you can." She persuaded without pain, and her expression was a little tangled.

After a while, Bertina came back with four tickets, handed them to Tang Yuan and Lin Zhao respectively, and said, "I bought the tickets for the fourth day of the competition. I couldn't find a suitable seat for the first three days, so I had to buy the fourth day. ”

Lin Zhao took the two tickets from Bertina's hand. One is his, and the other is Alona's, and it will be given to him for safekeeping. He saw that the ticket was painted in blood red, and in the center of the ticket was the text of the meat grinder contest, and on the note next to it, there was a line of small letters: Please come together to witness the birth of the new Viscello.

The three of them ate together. At the dinner table, Bertina explained her method of sneaking in and out of Noxus.

"We're going to watch the meat grinder, but in fact, my method of entering and exiting the city-state is also related to the meat grinder." After eating, Bertina began to explain, "At the meat grinding contest that year, there was a well-known thing - Viscello Zhao Xin rebelled and took refuge in Demacia. When Zhao Xin was rescued by Jiawen II, he left a secret passage in Noxus City. ”

"But after that incident, the secret passage of the year has been blocked. I heard that in order to block that secret passage, the military even asked a dark mage who was proficient in sealing magic to make a magic circle and seal that secret passage with dark magic. Coincidentally, when I was in the army, I learned the skills of using rune energy from the dark magician who made this magic array, and that magician took me to the magic circle of the secret passage for convenience, and let me feel the rune energy through the magic array. As a result, I learned the current swordsmanship, and I also knew a way to get in and out of the city-state. “

"However, that secret passage is heavily guarded, and I can only watch the guards sneak past when they change the guard. When it's time for us to leave, you two must listen to me, and you can't waste a minute or a second of your time and hurry up and leave with me through the secret passage. ”

Lin Zhao and Tang Yuan nodded, indicating that they understood Bertina's instructions.

Then the dinner ended, and the three of them left. Lin Zhao brought the rest of the dinner and sent it to Alona.

When Alona woke up from her coma again, it was late at night. Extreme hunger forced her to continue pretending to be asleep, and Lin Zhao's hand knife before also let her know that when facing Lin Zhao, pretending to be asleep was useless, so she obediently opened her eyes and looked at Lin Zhao pitifully.

Lin Zhao handed the lunch box to Alona, who took it carefully and ate it in small bites.

Her appearance made Lin Zhao feel some compassion. But recalling her performance from the beginning to the time she was knocked unconscious, Lin Zhao had to harden her heart.

Who knows if this crazy girl's expression is pretended.

"Mr. Jack......" Alona swallowed a mouthful of food and called out weakly.

Lin Zhao said: "You'd better not speak, otherwise I can't help but give you a meal before you finish eating." ”

"I'll just say a few words, please, Mr. Jack." Alona begged, "Now there's no one else here but you and me." I'm just going to say a few words, and it shouldn't affect anything. ”

Lin Zhao was silent.

Alona let out a soft sigh, when Lin Zhao acquiesced.

"Mr. Jack, as you have already said, my cleverness is of no use in the presence of people who are much stronger than me. You...... Can you treat me like an ant that can be crushed to death at will, pity me, poor and weak and useless, don't ...... It knocks me out all the time. ”

She seems to have been knocked unconscious and stimulated, and her speech is not as sharp as before, and the logic in her words is not as clear as before.

But what she wanted to say, it had already been expressed.

"Then please be dumb." Lin Zhao borrowed the donkey to go downhill and said, "From now on, if you make even the slightest sound, I will knock you out immediately." ”

He had wanted to keep Alona in a coma until the day of the meat grinder, and pour Alona a few sips of wine to disguise her as a drunken woman. But it's still too much inconvenience to think about it.

Anyway, this woman is also extremely weak, and she can only be pushed forward in a wheelchair by herself when the time comes. As long as she keeps an eye on her, she will knock her out as soon as she opens her mouth, which will save a lot of trouble.

Using rune energy, Lin Zhao was not afraid that Alona would be able to speak first and say something.

Then, when it's time to escape, when you can't take care of Alona, knock her out again, and that's it.

Alona nodded hurriedly, closing her mouth tightly.
