Chapter 22 Internal and External Troubles?

ps: Modify the wording. Thanks to the "Clear Night Starry Sky", "YF533", "YYWHS", and "Oos" for their monthly votes.

"You kid still have a little conscience! But Miss, it's not your turn to worry about a little guy like you! Lady Regina patted Barrett on the shoulder and muttered, "If you really want to say it, your Lord Earl is about the same." ”

However, Barrett, who was anxious to know the final result, still asked reluctantly: "So why did Lady Freya not be able to come back until now?" ”

Lady Regina couldn't help but frown at Barrett's undying appearance, then she turned her head to look around the tent, and then pinched her handprint and recited the incantation. After making sure that the next conversation would not be eavesdropped, he said to Barrett, "You just know what you hear next." You're going to have to rot in my own stomach for me, and if I hear anything about it in the Oasis, you know the consequences. ”

"Wait!" Barrett, who heard that this was wrong, immediately put on a smile and said, "If that's the case, Ms. Regina, you better not say it." I'm not as curious as you might think. ”

"Since I'm talking, there's no reason to stop in the middle of speaking." Ms. Regina's eyebrows furrowed, "And you're a man who has already provoked the conversation before." Do you still want to back down now? ”

As she said this, Ms. Regina's gaze naturally shifted between Barrett's legs, and at the same time, her fingers were volleying in circles, as if she was throwing a ball of flame. In the face of such a straightforward threat, Barrett subconsciously clamped his legs, and raised his hand in surrender to the invincible lady: "You say! You say! I'll listen to what you say! ”

"That's pretty much it!" Lady Regina retracted her gaze with a slight satisfaction, "In this operation. In order to hunt down those damn dried corpses, Miss, she was wounded! In order not to cause turmoil among those under his hands, Zhan Shi did not show up but was secretly recuperating from his injuries. ”

Barrett's face changed dramatically when he heard this. You must know that this is a world with supernatural abilities, and most injuries can be solved with the use of divine magic, even the resurrection of the dead. But Barrett actually heard Lady Regina say that Lady Freya needed time to recuperate in secret. If it weren't for the fact that the other party deliberately insulted Barrett's IQ. That would only indicate that Ms. Freya was in a very troubled situation.

'Maybe some special curse is stopping Lady Freya's reply?' But if that's the case, doesn't Lady Freya have the power of the Iron Heart? This is not like a mistake that a martial artist of her level would make. Is it a negative state that even the 'Iron Heart Power' can't remove? Transcendent...... Barrett's face immediately turned the color of pork liver when he thought of something.

Because if things really go as Barrett expected, then when he will be able to complete this trial task is really far away. Although there is also a lot of threat to the safety of natural life, don't forget that Barrett is not an aboriginal but a player.

It is impossible for him to actually die in the game, although he cherishes his chance to be resurrected. But it doesn't give up eating because of choking. If you really encounter some former enemies that you can't resist, it's a big deal to resurrect and leave. But if the trial task of the advanced path is stuck at this last critical point, it is really like crying without tears.

Ms. Regina, who noticed the change in Barrett's face, then explained, "But don't worry too much, that kind of injury is troublesome, but it can't be difficult for Miss. At most, it will take 7-8 days, and she will be able to solve the problem. ”

"So, Lady Freya, did their attempt to hunt down the drought lich fail?" Barrett asked cautiously. Although it may be a bit inappropriate to ask such a question at this time. But he felt that he had to understand the ultimate outcome of the operation - to be a 'ghost of understanding' even if he was going to die! At least be prepared when the Church of the 'God of Tombs and Mummies' comes to the door, at least you can kill enough.

"You can rest assured! Those damn dried corpses definitely lost more than they had previously expected. Speaking of this, a smile finally appeared on Ms. Regina's face, "But it's really because of this that shameless guy chose to shoot directly." The young lady and those companions who participated in the ambush were also too smooth in their previous actions, and in the end, they were finally injured by the other party who bullied them and made them difficult to recover. ”

'Is it the doppelganger of the Divine Mansion?' However, Ms. Freya definitely didn't get to Chuangqi, and being able to successfully get out in that situation is really an extraordinary ability! Barrett thought to himself, and at the same time, his opinion of the lady Freya increased even further.

But Barrett doesn't know yet. Ms. Freya's ability to escape was not entirely due to herself. The people who participated in the ambush of the high-ranking members of the 'God of Tombs and Mummies' church a few days ago were not only the masters of her and the Bolim family's increase in staff, but also the masters of the big churches - these clergy were the real main force.

Since at the same time church members. Then for the 'god of tombs and mummies', the dog's behavior of jumping over the wall naturally has corresponding countermeasures. Otherwise, if Ms. Freya wants to escape from the attack of the projection of the Divine Mansion, it can really be said that the chances are slim. Even with targeted measures, those involved in the ambush were all wounded and had to find a place to recover.

"Look at you!" Ms. Regina naturally noticed the change in Barrett's expression, "Don't worry! According to the young lady, the 'god of tombs and mummies' did not take advantage of it that time. At least for a short time, he will no longer be able to directly intervene in the main plane. So you don't have to worry about his threat at all. Besides, do you think those high-ranking gods will notice you, little shrimp? ”

"Nope! Wasn't that what I'm worried about? Barrett said with a pretended composure. My concern is that Madam Regina, why don't you tell these subordinates in the oasis that you are telling me to tell me as an outsider? ”

"It's because you're an outsider that you're so reliable." Ms. Regina said, turning her head to look at the door of the tent. "Don't look at Miss, she seems to be living a very leisurely life. In fact, in the Pamirs, many people are hostile to her! If it's a qiē normal. Miss Yi, her strength is naturally that no one dares to think nonsense. But now that Miss is injured, it's hard to guarantee that no one will have any thoughts that they shouldn't have. ”

"That is, there are spies from other organizations among those people out there?" There was an immediate hint of wariness in Barrett's gaze.

Lady Regina shook her head, "There aren't any official spies. But they had a lot of connections in the Pamirs before they joined us. So I'm afraid that those people will have thoughts that they shouldn't have. Although it may not threaten the safety of the young lady, it is difficult to say whether this foundation can be kept. ”

Combined with Ms. Regina's statement. Coupled with what he heard in Yale City, Barrett understood that it was not easy for a woman to maintain such a large family business in the Pamirs. It's not just some greedy jackals who are eyeing this qiē, but more importantly, most Pamiris can't tolerate a woman being the leader of the commanding side. As long as they have the opportunity, they will definitely eradicate this typical character of deviance, so as not to let the women in their family who 'keep the way of women' have any thoughts that they shouldn't have.

Tradition is a terrifying force, like a silent spring rain, that affects the intelligent creatures who live in the desert. Even these warriors who have taken refuge in Lady Freya. It is also unknown whether he still subconsciously resists his leader. So Ms. Regina's concern is not unreasonable.

Barrett is different, first of all, outsiders like him are truly innocent, and have no direct connection with the various forces in the Pamir desert region. Moreover, in the kingdom of Nohan, where he Barrett was originally located, the status of women was higher than that of the Pamirs, and he would not reject strong women like the intelligent creatures born here. Most importantly, the Boreham family is currently an ally of Lady Freya. This assurance made Ms. Regina especially reassuring Barrett.

Barrett, who had probably figured out something, naturally did not think that it was useless for Lady Regina to sue him about this, and he immediately understood that the other party had something to order. But waiting until people arrange the work and taking the initiative to ask for help are two different things. So Barrett immediately asked, "Is there anything you need to tell me, Ms. Regina?" As long as it's not too difficult, it's incumbent on you. ”

"You're a slippery kid." Ms. Regina glared at Barrett and continued, "Forget it! It's not too sinister anyway. It's just that before the young lady comes back, let you pay a little attention to the guys in the oasis. If anyone seems suspicious or restless, report it to me immediately. ”

Hearing this, Barrett naturally expressed his eagerness: "If this is the case, Ms. Regina, you can rest assured. But for whatever reason, I don't want to see the oasis go haywire. ”

"If only you understood!" Lady Regina nodded in satisfaction, "Then I won't bother you for a while!" Remember not to be too obvious when you work. lest you find nothing when you get it. ”

"Regina, don't worry! I still have some experience in this area. Don't underestimate the Boreham family's approach to education. Barrett replied with a smile.

When leaving the tent. Ms. Regina did not forget to look back and smile and said, "Then I will not bother you." Remember to work hard, maybe this will also be included in the assessment of the young lady! ”

"Don't worry! I will not fail in your trust in this regard. Barrett beckoned with a wry smile. After waiting for the curtain of the tent to be lowered, the wry smile on his face still did not disappear when he stroked the 'Injury Worsening Gloves' in his hand: "How did you get such a thing!" Do you want Lao Tzu to deal with those creatures with rough skin and thick flesh in the future? ”

The effect of the 'Wound Aggravation Gauntlet' is very powerful, and it is even different from the second-order 'Blood Light Weapon' enchantment. However, like the 'bloodlight weapon' enchantment, this pair of gloves also has a lot of limitations in terms of practicality. Because the key to their effect is bloodletting, it doesn't work at all for creatures that don't have blood.

Whether it's the common undead, plants, or the rare Voids, Structures, Elementals, and other creatures, they are all completely immune to the effects of the 'Injury Worsening Gauntlet'. What's even more frustrating is that. Even creatures affected by the effects of the 'Gloves of Injury Aggravation' only need to add a 'Rejuvenation' beforehand. It also minimizes its effect - the 'Rejuvenation Technique' is able to continuously and effectively astringent wounds, and the bleeding effect of the 'Injury Worsening Gloves' is produced. It can play a certain role in countering zuò.

That's not the most important thing, though, as the real headache for Barrett is because the pair of gloves has a different fighting style than his own. You know, Barrett's fighting style is tough and leans towards a one-hit lethal blow. In such a situation, what chance is there to wait for the bleeding effect of the 'Injury Worsening Gloves' to take effect! And if Barrett is difficult to solve in a short period of time, it is often the type that can't hurt each other after fighting for a long time, and it is also difficult for the 'injury gauntlet' to make a difference.

It can be said that the difference in style is the main reason for Barrett's poor complexion. After all, the 'Injury Aggravation Gauntlet' is also a mid-to-high-level strange object worth 23,000 gold coins, and even if the object of effect is limited, it is worth its own price. Otherwise, anyone would spend more than 20,000 gold coins to buy a waste.

It's a pity that the style is different, and the problem is Dao Tianji, so Barrett immediately put the strange thing he just got into the cold palace: "It's not that the kid who doesn't need this thing is not a noodle!" The 'Ghost Dagger' and the 'Injury Worsening Gauntlet' are definitely a top-notch torturous combo! But at present, it seems that he has a tendency to go through skill service, and if he doesn't need it, I can only take it to the family to see if I can exchange it for a suitable curiosity! ”

However, thinking of the enemies that might need to be dealt with next, Barrett still put these gloves on his hands - the previous 'gauntlet of destruction' had already been given by Barrett when he was in Poitou. In fact, the oddity was far more suitable for Barrett than the one he had acquired now. It's just that compared to the constant effect of the 'Flashing Technique', the other qiē can only give way. For this life-saving effect, Barrett can really be regarded as smashing the pot and selling iron. (To be continued)
