Chapter 417: A Narrow Encounter
Andy was shocked to see the soldier's actions, he subconsciously thought that he must have been exposed, and when Trist was covered by the black cloth and the soldier flashed aside, he nodded and smiled with satisfaction. Although Vera was not aware of Trist's questioning, in the split second just now, Andy had already planned an escape route. "Can I go?" asked Andy, looking back. Vera nodded, her slender eyelashes flashing in front of Andy's eyes. When the guard saw the master's order, he immediately took out his sword, and with a "bang", the moonlight fell on the neat sword, the evening breeze in the valley blew, and a small lock of Andy's long hair was cut off by the sword blade and slowly fell into the pool.
Andy never expected Vera to treat Eugene with such courtesy, and it seems that this alchemist's status among the Elves of Calby should not be underestimated. "Who are you?" asked Trist, though she was covered with a veil, and she couldn't help but whisper. Andy didn't want to fall short, so he grabbed the chains in his hands and walked out of the mansion quickly. "It's dangerous!" he led Trist into an alley, trying to calm his heartbeat.
"Actually, they don't recognize you, and to Vera, your clothes are a symbol of Eugene. Trist pierced Andy's identity through the mask in pure Bunier. Andy wasn't surprised, he knew that since the last time Trist absorbed Deborah's ice crystals, his entire form had begun to slowly break free from the shackles of the dark slave. He lifted Trist's mask and whispered, "Has Xia Zuo been here?"
Trist looked at Andy with blank and dry eyes, and she was silent for a moment before she said in a hoarse voice, "I don't know Xia Zuo, but I seem to know you! But can you tell me who you are?" Andy knew that the transformation potion hadn't worked yet, but he wasn't prepared to tell Trist the truth about the situation in the Valley. He looked down at Trist, his former wife was now a stranger, and Andy didn't know how to tell Trist what had happened to her these days, let alone tell her that he had married two enviable beauties.
"I know you!" Trist said in a hoarse voice again. Andy smiled, and he gently stroked Trist's withered little hand, and those happy memories in Cloud Mountain immediately flooded into his heart. He said softly, "Of course you know me, I'm Andy!" Before she could finish speaking, Trist began to howl.
Andy quickly covered Trist's mouth with his hand, and a moment later a group of guards ran across the alley, and these heavily armed Colby elves did not notice Andy and Trist flying to the treetops, and they quickly disappeared at the end of the alley. "Ahh Trist smiled, she looked up and whispered, "I know you!"
Andy nodded, although Trist was a little delirious, but she was finally saved. He wanted to find Xia Zuo first and ask Trist to take the Fountain of Eternal Life as soon as possible, but he didn't dare to think about the outcome. In fact, Xia Zuo's mind also understood that as long as he left the valley with Trist, the hunter would use the immortal ice crystals to treat Trist. And he can save Belil without any worries, and when the time comes, he can save Atwood and Duke.
Andy watched the soldiers drift farther and farther away, and knowing that the danger was over, he took Trist to the ground. "Let's go find Xia Zuo first, and then you can ......" Before Andy could finish his words, Trist bit his right palm again, and the blood stained with black energy poured into Trist's body, which was definitely a "delicacy" for a hungry dark slave. Andy couldn't bear to stop Trist, who was sucking his own blood, so he simply picked up the other party's thin body and walked towards Verla's mansion.
Vera, who suddenly appeared at the end of the "slow" alley, stopped Andy as he was about to leave. "Mistress Eugene, have you forgotten something?" Andy turned back with Trist, he really didn't know what he had forgotten, and a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his two sideburns. Vera walked over barefoot, and he stretched out his slender arm and slid it beside Andy, for this kind of **-like sliding was tantamount to provocation. Andy looked at Vera solemnly, this was the second time he had made eye contact with Tyrann's daughter, the last time Gavin led him to put on makeup in the attic, Vera looked at him with this kind of eyes, it was really a "thrilling" memory.
"You forgot to kiss me!" Vera reminded as she looked at Andy, who was at a loss. Andy was so nervous that he trembled his hands to stop the other person's hug. "You're weird today!" Vera pressed her fiery lips to Andy's cheek, and although she was separated by the skinny Trist, Vera was still very enthusiastic, this woman was definitely testing this fake Eugene.
"Lord Eric!" a Calby elven soldier bowed to the man walking into the alley. Andy's face turned pale in an instant, he stood in the aisle and waited for Eric, this kind of close contact was definitely not in the atmosphere of his plan, but he also wanted to meet this companion once, maybe he really wanted to know what kind of changes would happen to the people of Bunier after drinking the Fountain of Eternal Life.
"Are you?" asked Eric looking at Andy in the corner. Will stretched out her arms, and she seemed to be enthusiastic in her introduction, "This is Lord Eugene of Monroe Marsh, one of our patrons, who is now going to lead Trist back to the castle. Eric was very unhappy to hear Vera's words, he was planning to be a "dog" by Tyron's side in order to be able to redeem Trist, but he didn't expect that he lost his last chance before he had a showdown with Taryn.
Eric looked at Vera and asked, "Isn't it too hasty for you to do this because the plan we agreed on didn't include Trist?" Vera was unimpressed by Eric's words, and she turned around and whispered a few words in a soldier's ear. "Okay, we still have something to discuss, Lord Eugene has something to do, I'll send it not far away. "Verla seems to be breaking the deadlock. Andy didn't say anything, and he slowly walked out of the alley with Trist in his arms. Although he had walked far away, he could still feel Eric's resentful gaze.
Vera led her men back to the mansion, she looked at Eric behind her and asked, "Why did you imprison the Amos?" Eric smiled lewdly, he took his glass and drank it down, and when the reborn Bunir placed the hourglass of time on the table, Vera looked very uneasy. "You actually got the Guardian Hourglass?" Vera bent over to look closely, knowing that Eric wasn't there to take out such a treasure for drinking. She simply took the lead and asked, "Say! What are your conditions?"
