Chapter 5: Sand Pirates

Gloria returned to her room, looking at everything familiar in the room, and maybe it wouldn't be long before she could get out of here.

Although the decision has been made, when it really comes to this moment, there is still a feeling that I can't let go.

"What's wrong? Does the lord not approve of our marriage? An elegant voice, accompanied by the sound of the door slamming, a handsome, well-behaved young man walked in with a smile that would captivate any girl, looked at Gloria and smiled.

In all fairness, he is a very good young man, both in appearance and temperament, full of aristocratic elegance and demeanor, and Zhuo Ao's angular temperament, full of wildness and majesty are two completely different feelings.

"No, he didn't disagree." Gloria said lightly, then looked at the young man and frowned: "Next time you come in, remember to knock on the door first, and besides, if we get married, I have decided to resign from my current position as financial officer." ”

The young man was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then nodded with a smile and said, "Of course, everything is according to your wishes, I am a nobleman, and I have enough ability to make you live a rich life, in fact, I have always disapproved of you taking such a position." ”

Gloria nodded, perhaps because she was too careful, and said softly, "I'm a little tired, Bow. ”

"Okay, you have a good rest, I'll go tell my father about us, I think, he will be very happy." After nodding understandingly, Poult left with a smile.

Sitting in front of the exquisite mirror, looking at the figure in the mirror that is still beautiful but no longer has the vitality of a few years ago, the corners of Gloria's mouth flashed a trace of bitterness, maybe she should really make up her mind, and. Cyberpunk Town is now full of talent, and there is no need to worry about it anymore, it's time to unload the burden and enjoy the rest of your life.

Thinking of Poult, Gloria frowned, was her attitude not very good just now. She knew that she didn't love him, and the reason why she chose him was only because of Powter's passionate pursuit and Gloria really needed another relationship to forget Zhuo Ao, after all, she didn't have a long life like Zhuo Ao, her life was very short, and most of her youth had passed, and she couldn't wait any longer. Maybe Powter will be the person who will be with him for the rest of his life, maybe he should go and see him, try to get along in the future, and there should be more understanding between each other, right?

Thinking of this, Gloria stood up, put on a cloak and walked outside. Naturally, it is impossible for Poult to live in the castle, listen to him. He was a nobleman from the Bantu Empire, who now lives in the largest inn of the Four Seas in Punk Town.

"Mistress Gloria, you're going out?" At the door, he met the guard in charge of duty and said respectfully to Gloria.

"Well, there's something to deal with." Gloria nodded. smiled.

"I'll arrange a team of guards for you to keep you safe."

"No, I don't think there will be any danger in Cyberpunktown." Shaking her head, Gloria smiled and rejected the guard's kindness. Walk straight towards the Four Seas Inn outside the castle.

Dealing with the people who came forward to greet him from time to time, thinking that soon, he would be leaving this town that he had participated in almost the whole process and watching it gradually grow step by step, he felt a little melancholy, but his footsteps did not stop, all the way to the Four Seas Inn.

"Is Powter back?" At the counter, Gloria smiled at the middle-aged man known as the shopkeeper, and in terms of business, Zhuo Ao had found these people who were indeed more talented than her father, Old Jack.

"Miss Gloria, Mr. Powter has returned, and I have him called." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

"No, I'll go find him." Shaking her head, after all, it was some more private words, and she didn't want to say it in a place where there were too many people.

"It's okay, if you need anything, just press this trigger, and our people will be there with you." The shopkeeper glanced at Gloria, nodded, and handed a magic crystal to Gloria, which is the treatment that only VIP guests have, as the proud financial officer, Gloria has this qualification.

"Thank you." Gloria smiled and took the trigger and headed upstairs.

"Go, inform the city guards, in a while, something may happen." Smiling at Gloria's back, the shopkeeper found a guy and said solemnly.

"Yes." The man was stunned when he heard this, then looked in the direction Gloria left, nodded, and ran out with a smoke.

Upstairs, Gloria came to Powter's door and was about to knock on the door when an angry voice suddenly sounded from inside the door.

"What do you say? She's going to resign as treasurer!? Slightly stunned, Gloria withdrew her hand that was about to knock on the door, and listened intently as Powter's voice rang out.

"Dear Mr. Wright, could you be louder so that the whole street can hear it?" Powter's voice was devoid of the elegance it had when facing himself, and it was a bit ruffian.

"I'm sorry, Bow, but I didn't expect that you, known as the merry gentleman among the sand thieves, couldn't even handle a woman for such a long time." The big voice named Wright deliberately lowered his voice, but even so, Gloria could still hear it clearly outside the door.

"What's the way, in three months, I don't have the ability to make a deep-rooted woman empathize with her, if it weren't for the fact that the lord didn't have any interest in her, even so, until now, she won't even let me touch her hand, I really don't know what kind of charm that the lord has is so attractive to women, and this kind of charm, I don't even have it!?"

"Don't show me your pickling skills here, find out our purpose this time, not for you to pick up girls, if she resigns from the position of financial officer, then she has no value to us." Wright said in a deep voice.

"Rest assured, no woman can refuse my order after getting into my bed, see what it is?" Powter seemed to have taken out something and said with a slight ostentation.

"Oh, you scoundrel, didn't you say you never used medicine?" Wright cursed with a laugh, but outside the door, Gloria's heart sank.

"Special period, special treatment, this time is related to whether we can catch the path of the Bantu Empire, you don't want to be a sand thief for the rest of your life." Poult said unconcernedly.

Outside the door, Gloria's face gradually turned cold, and she took out the magic crystal given to him by the shopkeeper. Come to think of it, the shrewd shopkeeper has already seen the problem, but it's just for himself, so it's inconvenient to say it directly, but this man is really damned!

Reached. Although the door is locked, Gloria has also learned some Xingyi boxing skills, although her achievements are not high, but a door is not difficult for her.

The deadbolt snapped, and to the stunned gaze of Powt and a burly man, Gloria appeared in the doorway.

"Uh...... Gloria, why are you here? Powter was startled, but walked up with a quiet face. Wanted to be close to Gloria.

"I think you'd better stay still, Mr. Sand Pirate." Gloria's gaze was cold, and she took a step back lightly, looking at Poult.

"You heard it all." Powter's face sank, and his eyes flashed dangerously when he looked at Gloria: "It's a pity, you shouldn't have broken in so recklessly. In that case, maybe you'll live a little longer. ”

"Really? But I don't think so. Gloria took a few steps back. A group of wolf-like city guards pounced on them.

"Damn woman!" Poult roared angrily and drew a short knife, as if he had broken out of these city guards, these most ordinary city guards in Punk Town, that attire, they saw every day on the streets. As a fifth-order bronze sword master, he didn't think that an ordinary city guard in a small town would be very powerful.

"Dare to resist!" The city guards knocked his short knife away with a sword, and slapped him to the ground with a horizontal sword, Punk Town is a place where the powerhouses of the Sanctuary are endless. The city guards here, although they can't catch up with the main force and are brave and good at fighting, but each of them is at least a seventh-order strength, and when they are placed outside, they are all masters of the famous town, where can a bronze sword master be compared.

Wright was a little stronger than Bow, but it was also absolutely limited, and he was subdued without walking through the hands of another city guard.

"Gloria, I think there may be some misunderstanding between us, you can't do that." Poult looked at Gloria and pleaded.

"Really?" Gloria leaned over and picked up a crystal bottle from the ground, only the size of her thumb, containing a pale red liquid: "I'm curious about this." ”

"Just an ordinary perfume, which I am going to give you." Bouter laughed.

"Really?" Gloria picked up the short knife on the ground, and in the midst of Bow's terrible screams, a knife stabbed into the base of Bow's thigh, and the red blood and terrible screams made several city guards around them subconsciously clamp their legs.

Ignoring the screaming and tearful Poult, Gloria held a short knife, looked at Wright, and a good-looking smile curled up at the corner of her mouth: "Look at you, you don't look like a man who likes to lie, you will tell me, right?" ”

"Yes, this is a liquid extracted from plants endemic to the desert, which has a strong aphrodisiac effect, and both men and women, as long as they smell a little, they will go completely crazy, but their consciousness is absolutely awake." Wright said hurriedly.

"Very good." Gloria stood up and looked at the captain of the city guard: "Hand it over to the prison, torture all the information, and then dispose of it." ”

"Yes." Looking at Gloria's indifferent appearance, the city guards felt a chill all over their bodies, and hurriedly escorted the two unlucky ghosts and left in a hurry, leaving Gloria standing in the room, looking at the crystal bottle in her hand, thoughtful.

……

An hour later

"What a big guts, the Bantu Empire dares to hit my woman with the idea!" In the underground laboratory, Zhuo Ao looked at the information, although he didn't know what the specific goals of these guys were, but in the past three months, the man named Boud had secretly met with the people of the Bantu Empire eighteen times, and to say that there was no conspiracy in it would be to insult his IQ.

In anger, Zhuo Ao walked out of the underground experimental base directly with the information, this Boud can't stay.

Greeting, just running into Gloria, who was walking towards him.

"Gloria, I have something to tell you." Zhuo Ao said in a deep voice.

"It just so happens that I have something to do." Gloria nodded, "Is it convenient to come to my room and have dinner with me?" ”

"It's fine." When Zhuo Ao heard this, he didn't care, nodded, followed Gloria to her room, looked at the turkey, red wine, and bread that had been prepared, raised his eyebrows in surprise, and sat down with Gloria. (To be continued.) )
