Chapter 187: Confession
"You're finally telling the truth!" Brun turned suddenly, his eyes shining brightly.
"Does this have anything to do with my problem?" Li Ling asked. It is true that he finds Bren beautiful and impeccable, but it has nothing to do with him. In his heart, there is only Qin Yu now, even in the future, there will only be one Qin Yu, Li Ling thought to himself.
"Of course there is. Have you ever heard the word love? Brundau.
Li Ling felt that Bren was getting more and more out of bounds, but in order to get the information he wanted, Li Ling just let Bren discuss these strange questions freely. But he reminded him anyway: "I know, but it seems to me that no one in the royal city of Gaia cares about the meaning of the word. ”
Bren waved his hand, signaling that he didn't want to continue the debate on the subject, but continued, "Because of my beauty, you won't fall in love with me. At least you don't particularly hate me, do you? ”
Li Ling thought for a while, nodded and said, "Maybe, human nature." ”
"I knew it!" Bren looked a little excited.
"But there are exceptions to everything!" Before Bren couldn't help but jump up, Li Ling spoke again: "What if...... I'm if...... You are a femme fatale, not only will you not leave a good impression in my heart because of your beauty, but I will do anything to get rid of you! Li Ling said in a deep voice.
Brun shook her head, seemingly extremely dissatisfied with Li Ling's answer, but she didn't show impatience, but said with a smile: "We're not on the same channel, Li Ling." You know what I mean? The two of us are here to ask questions and answer questions according to our own hearts. But he didn't think about Pets at all. I am now willing to break that deadlock. But you have to cooperate with me and listen to me carefully, okay? ”
"Yes, Your Highness Bren."
"Call me Bren." Brun said, and then arrived: "Before you heard my name, I had received news from Your Majesty Mia that you and your companions were heading towards the royal city. Even to get her order that you must be blessed, at first, I didn't take Queen Mia's words to heart at all, but thought that you would be like the men in the royal city who were used to dangling in front of me, with light hair and a tall and thin body. If I show my true face and identity, I will deliberately show off my great strength, or deceive me through some evil ways."
Li Ling shrugged his shoulders, thinking that Bren had wronged himself.
"Hehe, I do look at you a little, and I also look at you outsiders." Brundau. "I didn't expect that from the first time I saw you, I thought you were very different from all the people I've ever met. There is no distraction in your eyes, just a preoccupation with how you want to enter our royal city, how to be accepted by my mother and her appointed subordinates, and even to build our royal city with them. ”
"With enthusiasm and kindness, isn't it?" Li Ling heard the sense of ridicule in Bren's tone, and couldn't help but speak.
"Of course, if I were Mother Mia, I would accept you with a high heart, and find a secluded place to communicate with you well, get what I want, and take care of you accordingly. If I could, I would even agree to your request to treat you as our equals, and then discuss together how to grow our royal city even stronger. ”
Li Ling nodded, happy that Bren could have such an idea, if everyone thought like Bren, Li Ling felt that he would immediately rush out and hug his companions, quietly waiting for the morning sun to rise, and then start a new life. But he knew that things were not as simple as he expected.
Bren continued: "After I've been with you for a while, I find myself already attracted to you. The reason is simple, I see my shadow in you. I think we must have something in common. ”
Li Ling didn't say anything, waiting for Bren to continue.
"I think what we have in common is that we have our own unique way of thinking, and we know what our hearts are craving, without having to be influenced by others. Like myself, I longed for my own love, like the protagonist of those vulgar stories that circulated on the construction site. And you, you also have your own persistence! ”
"If you're complimenting me, I thank you for affirming me. It's just that...... I'm afraid I don't even know these qualities of yours! ”
"You know, Li Ling. You're always thinking about your companions and trying to settle them down. You must have encountered great difficulties before you kept moving in the direction of the royal city of Gaia. Am I at fault? ”
The color seemed to brighten a little, and Li Ling saw that Brun's eyes were staring at him tightly, not allowing him to have any chance to lie, so he had no choice but to nod. 、
"So, I'm so open that I've put myself in the same category as you, and I've even begun to think about accepting the order of Her Majesty Mia before I set off - get your love!"
"Boom!" It was a silent dawn, but suddenly there was a roar of thunder and lightning.
Li Ling raised his head in surprise. I thought that it was really like Clara's - Mia must be testing herself, sharpening herself, like all the good young people in this royal city, and finally becoming the shadow of her own guide. The only difference is that he, an outsider, has aroused the interest of His Highness Mia. According to Clara, except for Emon and the titular princesses, Mia has never taken anyone as her 'shadow'. It was almost the supreme glory that everyone could think of. Because of this, Clara judged that Li Ling must have something extraordinary, so she took the risk of taking the lead in implementing soul guidance on Li Ling. It's just that she didn't expect Mia to come to the door immediately and kill her without mercy.
"What? You think I'm mean? Or do you feel sorry for me? Bren asked, giggling. If you're looking at me Bren because of that, you're wrong, very wrong. I told you, we are the same kind of people, and I have my own pride and persistence, how can I, Bren, use my looks to obtain good fortune."
"I'm glad you're not. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be like you, and think you're trying to deal with me secretly. Li Ling said half-jokingly.
"But then, His Majesty Mia's orders affected me more and more severely, making me think all the time about the possibility of becoming a partner with you, and how we should get along with each other after that,"
"Don't worry, Your Highness Bren, I can't guarantee that this possibility will never happen, but the possibility is basically zero."
"I thought so too, but Mia's words and the decision announced by Her Highness Ina at her behest have completely bound me to you. Like now, I can't get you out of my head. ”
"What does that mean?" Li Ling asked.
"Do you know what it means to be in a state of innocence?" Buren stared at Li Ling's eyes and continued: "It means that love has taken root and sprouted in my heart. ”
Li Ling thought that he had heard it wrong, or because he missed Qin Yu too strongly, so he had such a strange dream. Based on his recent understanding, as well as the information that Clara had instilled in his mind, Li Ling felt that the human beings in the world of Sirte had not yet incorporated their personal feelings into a level worthy of "confession".
But Bren just kept staring at him like that, waiting for his reaction. Li Ling decided to take Bren's words as a hypothesis, so he nodded and said encouragingly: "Okay, I admit that there is such a possibility. ”
"Well, I thought you didn't want to admit it." Bren first smiled before saying, "It is based on this unwarranted love that I choose to trust you, trust you to keep all my words and deeds secret, and trust you not to do anything to hurt me." So, I told you about my fear of Her Majesty Mia. ”
Li Ling was silent, thinking about how much of Brun's words might be true. How he wished that Clara would jump into his head at this moment and pierce Bren's hypocritical face. It's a pity that where Clara appears is not under his control at all, and besides, Li Ling feels that his heart has changed subtly, and he is inclined to believe what Bren told him.
Li Ling wanted to tell Bren that if what was hers was true, then please tell herself if His Majesty Mia had any plans against him and his companions. But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them alive. "Whether your words are true or not, it is impossible for us to be together. Li Ling finished striding out of the empty camp, leaving only Brun alone in the central camp.
The morning sun illuminates the distant peaks, and it is a new sun.
Li Ling knew that there was not much time left for him, and there was not much time left for Qin Yu. Before Mia can do anything, he must at least be prepared to deal with it.
The sound of hurried footsteps sounded from a distance, Li Ling raised his head and saw Ma Xiyu's footsteps running over in a hurry.
"Adjutant Li!" Ma Xiyu saw Li Ling standing at the gate of the camp from a distance, so she shouted.
Compared to the rank of commander given to Li Ling by Mia, his companions were more accustomed to calling him Adjutant Li. Li Ling remembered that his official title was still appointed by Ge Jin, who had been dead for a long time.
"Adjutant Li!" Ma Xiyu shouted again, and at this time, he was not far from Li Ling.
"What's so in a hurry? Are those beasts who are not afraid of death coming to make trouble again? Li Ling asked casually. All along, he was worried about Mia, who was also human, not about the sinister or cunning brutes. In Li Ling's concept, the poisonous snake hiding next to the couch is more intimidating than the tiger in the distant mountains and forests.
"Yes, Adjutant Li, we're in trouble this time! Those brutes look like they're going to fight us to the death, all over the mountains! Ma Xiyu said with some panic.
Li Ling's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly calmed down, walked over and patted Ma Xiyu on the shoulder and said, "Take it easy, brother!" We are no longer a team of supporters who just arrived on the plains of Busen, we are also a large force. Li Ling smiled, thinking that the number of those black-armored knights was also extraordinary, at least they could cover a mountain.
"But ......"
"Okay, Ma Xiyu, I know what you're worried about, war? I've never experienced a large-scale war, let alone between man and beast. However, since we have ventured into this world, we always have to face some difficulties that we have never experienced before. ”
"But the situation is a little special now! Adjutant Lee. ”
"Let's go, let's go to the front!" Li Ling said. As he was walking along the road, Li Ling suddenly wanted to vaccinate these companions in advance, so he said, "In fact, there are some more evil things hiding around us than these beasts that look like big rabbits, and you will come into contact with them sooner or later." ”
"I know, Adjutant Li, because I've seen it, and now, you should be able to see it too!" Ma Xiyu pointed to the hillside in the distance.
Li Ling looked in the direction of Ma Xiyu's finger, and a hill in the distance was indeed densely covered with Busen people holding wooden sticks or branches, which made people panic when they looked at it.
But what caught his eye even more was the strange creatures around the hills. There were reptiles with huge horns, and occasional kickers covered in bone spurs or scales, but the ones that made him palpitate the most were some of the giant beasts covered in long hair.
Despite their different appearances, the behemoths all aimed their heads at the phalanx defended by the Black Knights, looking like they were going to fight shoulder-to-shoulder with the Busen people standing behind them.
"These brutes!" Li Ling gritted his teeth and scolded.
"Adjutant Li! These brutes rioted en masse! What should we do? Niu Fajia saw Li Ling coming, and hurriedly ran over and asked.
Seeing that Li Ling didn't answer immediately, Zike walked up and suggested two steps: "It seems to be a bit tricky, but we now represent nearly half of the power of the royal city, how can we flee in the wilderness, in that case, wouldn't those dissatisfied beasts immediately besiege the royal city of Gaia!" ”
Seeing that someone was talking, Niu Fajia looked over again for help, and he recognized that the strong Zike was a knight chief, so he took the initiative to ask, "Lord Zike, what are we going to do as you can see?" ”
Zike thought for a moment and said, "Naturally, send a few of the most powerful warriors to have a one-on-one challenge with these brutes......
Niu Fajia was stunned for a moment, and then mocked loudly: "Are you funny with your head?" These brutes are so aggressive, and they have so many helpers, they can't come to fight us alone, right? ”
