Chapter 41: Farina
Her long tan hair reached her waist, and her white robe was cut to reveal a slight snow-white in unnecessary places. The elastic fabric emphasizes the proud curves of the chest, and the brown eyes are full of calm.
The first thing that caught Roland's eye was such a stunner. I have to say that she does have the capital to assassinate a duke.
Roland did not hide his admiring gaze, calmly examining the beauty in front of him.
To be honest, if it weren't for her surname Green Vine, Roland wouldn't have minded developing a short but fiery friendship with her.
"Enough, little one?"
A voice that gave a sense of grace and elegance came from Farina's mouth.
"Not yet."
Roland replied with a slight flirtatiousness.
While on Earth, he saw that Falina had degenerated into a crow witch, with withered white hair, silvery, bulging eyes, and a face covered in black demonic patterns born of the curse, and her face distorted by the pain caused by the curse.
The figure in the black gauze had become a nightmare for many. But that doesn't stop players outside of the strategy group from using their entertainment to discuss what Falina would look like before she fell, so that a Duke fan will be smitten. But no matter how you discuss, everyone can't convince everyone, and even if it's a picture synthesized by a technologist with a personal terminal, there are always people who are not satisfied.
Now I've finally seen it.
Roland sighed with contentment.
In terms of appearance alone, it is indeed a little similar to the picture restored by the technical emperor. But Falina in that restoration picture still has a fierce face, and she does not have the graceful temperament that Roland saw at this moment.
"Heh......" Seeing that Roland ignored her, Falina was not angry, but chuckled, then stood up from the wicker chair and walked in front of Roland.
The eyes seemed to see through Roland, and his slightly squinted eyes were like a fox.
"It's Carral, little cutie...... "She stroked Roland's face with one hand and muttered, "How dare you pretend to be the Blighter?" β
"Then sister, how do you know that I'm not a blighter?"
Roland didn't shy away, looking up at her, his tone natural and confused.
"I've been watching you kill Tam and that stranger," she said briskly, "I just wanted to give you a chance...... Really, it's not good to mix with that kind of person, listen to my sister. β
Hehe.
Roland sneered in his heart.
I can really climb the pole.
She had been looking at this Roland letter - she had been here for a long time, and she had not manipulated the entire Boum town just because she was afraid that this would attract the attention of the god of justice and judgment, and if she couldn't put her eyeliner all over this small place, she would really have lived in vain in the city of wealth for so many years.
Compared to the chaos of the place, the townspeople of the isolated town of Bum are as simple as sheep.
In Roland's plan, luring Falina out is an important part of it in itself. Otherwise, there was no need for him to kill people in the streets.
The point of that event was to draw Farina's eye to it, but not to let anyone else pay attention to it.
After Falina discovers Roland's existence and suspicions, the knight who was originally sent out to find the characteristics of Old John is also recalled by her. It would be nice if Roland had come for something from Old John, and it would have been funny if he had something to do with the man who was spying on her, and he happened to see Falina send someone to get something from Old John.
So whether it was the threat hidden in the captain's actions or Farina's last words, they were meant to make him inadvertently say which side he belonged to.
β¦β¦ It's all what Roland is left over. This level of linguistic trap can be easily discerned even by college students in social engineering.
Maybe Roland's logical thinking is really not good, but he will not fall for this level of language trap a hundred times.
"If I wasn't a blighter, my sister could report it to the diocese and have the headquarters send a real blight to arrest me."
Roland gently grabbed the hand on his face and said lightly.
Falina choked suddenly.
Report to the diocese? Maybe Roland will really be hunted down by the Blighters, but Falina definitely died before Roland.
"My brother laughed, how could my sister do this."
Falina smiled.
Roland's eyes narrowed. He noticed that Farina's gaze stopped at his throat.
Do you see that the Adam's apple is coming...... No, she meant, my life is in her hands.
But......
So what?
Roland squinted his eyes like a little fox that had stolen something fishy, and smiled kindly: "Tal. Someone has to be responsible for John's death, doesn't he? β
A gleam flashed in Farina's eyes.
She replied quietly, "Ah...... Of course. Just because he was deceived and killed an old man in anger, such a person will be dissected and executed even if he dies, right? β
"Is that good? Wouldn't it be too fake? β
Roland's face showed just the right amount of hesitation.
"It doesn't matter. The Lalam City Guard's autopsy skills can be relied upon," Falina grabbed Roland's hand and gently stroked her hair draped at her side, "and there is always someone to pay. β
"That's right, someone has to pay the price."
Roland nodded lightly and repeated.
Then the two looked at each other and smiled, and their eyes flashed with a strange light.
"Brother, where are you going next? By the way, my sister doesn't know your name yet......"
"Sister Falina just call me Roland, my surname is White Mistletoe."
Roland took a step back, pulled his hand out, and put his hood back on.
"Next I'd like to go to the City of Fortune. It is a sinful city that must be purified. It's a pity that I didn't have anyone to recommend me, so I guess I won't be able to enter the inner city. Roland said with regret.
"Oh?"
Falina looked amazed.
"Why didn't you tell my sister earlier, my sister can introduce you," Falina looked surprised, "Although there are some people in the City of Fortune who look at my sister very unpleasantly, my sister also has a lot of friends." I'll write you a letter of introduction, and if you take my letter and find any random person, he'll take you to the Fruit Lock. There you will get a short-term job and an identity that will allow you to navigate the city of wealth. β
β¦β¦ Are there "some" people who don't like you? Aren't you wanted all over town?
There is also the Lock of Green Fruits...... Isn't that a gathering place for nightingales? You introduced me to what the hell I was doing there.
Roland thought in his heart.
Farina ignored her, turned her back to Roland, propped up the table with one hand, and bent down to pick up the pen and write something quickly. The graceful posture was immediately highlighted.
This tick. The citation is simply not too obvious. What about your old skills in assassinating the Duke? Half-goblins look smaller than humans, do you really think I'm so young......
Roland sighed deeply.
In Roland's opinion, Farina's action can be said to be full of flaws.
At this time, if Roland raised his hand and stabbed a scarlet fang into Farina's back, he might be able to kill her. However, Roland looked at it carefully, and decided to take it safe and didn't do anything.
After all, Falina is a person who came out of that place, and he doesn't believe that she doesn't have a few hole cards and a few talisman props to kill Roland.
Now Falina is afraid that Roland may be a person from the White Tower, so she does not dare to take the initiative to attack, so Roland can leave Ram Town safely. But once he took the initiative to attack Falina and hadn't killed her, she wouldn't have to stay any longer.
As a druid, Roland is not sure that he will be able to kill his own high-level class. It would be nice if Roland had already obtained the Death Crow occupation at this point, but the Ash Men were also druids after all. As I said before, the level suppression of the Divine Profession is the most serious.
"No, here you go."
"Thank you then." Roland reached out and took the personal letter with Farina's mark.
He had already made up his mind what to do with this letter.
Anyway, if Farina's words are taken seriously, I'm afraid that the next plot will be Roland no misery. WMV or something.
"So, I'll go first?"
"Wait."
Falina stretched out her hand and called softly.
Here it comes.
Roland's heart was full of alarms.
"Sister has one more question...... Who the hell is that old liar? β
Sister, sister's screaming is not over for you!
An evil fire surged up in Roland's heart.
But he smiled quietly, "Ah...... I don't know much about that. But I heard that the stranger has a lot to do with him. β
"That's right."
I don't know if Falina believes it or not, but she nodded knowingly. Then she asked, "I heard that my brother found something from old John?" β
ββ¦β¦ For the sake of my sister's safety, it's better not to see this dangerous thing. Roland's voice became hoarse again.
"Oh?" Farina's voice also began to become high, "For the sake of my brother's safety, I can't let you take such a dangerous thing away." β
As if Farina had suddenly become louder, the closed door was suddenly opened from the outside, and a large number of guards poured in.
Falina smiled slightly, and her voice softened again: "I believe in my sister, I will definitely protect you." β
ββ¦β¦β
Roland pursed the corners of his lips and said nothing.
Did you tear your face directly?
It's good.
In this way, there is no psychological burden when you fool around.
Thinking so, he sneered a few times, and then said, "But the professor seems to want this thing." What should I do if a few more unfriendly people hurt my sister? β
Hearing the word "professor", Farina's pupils instantly contracted.
This time it was her turn to be silent again.
It was more than half an hour before she took a step forward with extremely heavy steps.
ββ¦β¦ No," to Luo Lan's surprise, Farina said in a fragile but firm voice, "Give me that thing." β
β¦β¦ Women's stubbornness.
It's also being calculated.
"Then sister, do you have to remember the password? If I'm not mistaken, the code should be a verse from the Winter Elves' long poem "The Raven of Ilamat," Roland's voice suddenly became light and elegant, "Dusk is approaching, and the weary bird leaves its nest, never to return." Probably this section. β
After saying this, Roland handed the black square in his sleeve.
Falina gave him a suspicious look and took the black square.
A little hesitant. But she hesitated for two seconds, but she still spoke: "Dusk is coming, the tired bird leaves the nest, and it will never returnβ"
But there was no movement in the black box.
Falina frowned and looked at Roland, but Roland waved her hand indifferently: "Don't look at me like that." I'm just guessing. Maybe it's something else. β
"Okay."
Falina recalled it for a moment, and then remembered that it was indeed the one that old John had pulled out. So she relieved herself and waved off. Get ready to study the code for this thing.
Roland held the "letter of introduction" written by Falina in his left hand and walked out of the door under the escort of the guards.
Underneath the hood, the corners of the mouth are slightly upturned.
