"Click, click", heavy footsteps echoed in Chester's house, McWilling, the liaison of the Bailong clan, and the mayor of the town had gone back, but old Dack refused to leave, insisting on waiting here for the treatment to be over, so that he could take his daughter home with him. Several people persuaded them all to leave, so they could only forcibly drag him to a bedroom outside the basement and let him wait outside, after all, there was a stove in the space above, which could be warmer. Old Dack couldn't sit still even when he went up into the room, and kept spinning around the room, creaking the wooden floor with his heavy steps.

Time passed little by little, three moons rose from the sky, crossed the dark sky, and slowly set from the other end, the edge of the dark night sky began to glow with a white morning light, and before you knew it, the night had passed, and another morning came.

Chester, the murderer, had also been carried from the basement to the ground, and was now curled up in a corner of the room, holding his head in a semi-comatose state, his legs bruised and swollen from the broken bones, twisted abnormally, and looking quite miserable, but as long as he thought of what he had done with his own hands, no one present would sympathize with his plight.

The five members of the party were also in this room, and Freya sat on the edge of the bed in the bedroom, holding an oval metal part in front of her eyes in one hand, and a sharp tool in the other, which was writhing through the small hole of the part, as if she was adjusting something. Vivien's physical strength was relatively poor, and her spread notebook was covered on her chest. Her hands and feet hung limply under the bed, her head resting on Freya's soft and flaccid thighs, and she fell into a deep sleep. Catherine was still in armor. The sword and shield were casually put aside, and she sat in a chair with a dignified demeanor, solemnly like a female knight in a studio, and most of her attention was focused on Chester, even if Chester had fallen into a semi-comatose state. Obviously, being escaped by Elad in the Glitter Forest had taught her enough lessons since then. It will no longer be slackened by underestimating the enemy, so that it will cause irreparable results.

in another corner of the room. Pannis and Eva sat together on several pieces of soft animal skin, Eva clumped together, her long golden hair covering her body like a golden furball. Also resting on Pannis's crossed legs. With one hand, Pannis stroked Eva's blonde hair like a sleeping kitten, and in the other hand held a copper coin that swirled and rolled around his fingertips. Of course, he originally wanted to play the game with gold coins, but after careful consideration, he changed it to copper coins in order to protect his property. Although his hands moved, his eyes were fixed on the window. Looking at the sky constantly lit up outside the window, I don't know what I'm thinking. Thinking about it, his gaze gradually became gloomy. There was also a little more depression in his expression, and even the movements of his hands slowed down. The first to notice the change was Eva, the little girl let out a whimper of dissatisfaction, closed her eyes and grabbed her backhand in the air, grabbed Pannis's hand and pressed it on her head again, moving her head and rubbing it a few times. Pannis was stunned. He glanced at Catherine, who was attracted by the sound and turned her gaze, and couldn't help but shake her head and smile. Reluctantly, he began to continue stroking the little girl's blonde hair. Eva grunted in satisfaction, rubbed her head against Pannis's lap, and fell asleep again in a more comfortable position.

The room was very quiet, except for the sound of footsteps made by old Duck as he paced, only Chester's intermittent faint**, if it wasn't for knowing in advance, no one would have imagined that this calm and peaceful house had been inhumane for a few days, and no one would have thought that this house had been part of the ritual venue for the cultists of the evil gods a day before.

Gradually, the sound of dogs barking began to sound in the silent town, followed by the sound of people's activities, and it was a new day, and a new life welcomed everyone. However, the old Dack in the room did not have the joy of ushering in a new day, but felt more and more depressed in his heart, and the more time passed, the more the old man's heart felt deep fear, and he really wanted to rush over and ask a few people in the adventure group, what was the situation, and whether Betty was still saved. However, the old man also knew in his heart that several people in the adventure group had nothing to do with their daughter, even if they didn't care about Betty at all, no one could accuse them of anything, if it weren't for mercy, they could have let Betty die, and they didn't have to spend more than ten hours to treat him, understanding this, the old man also suppressed the idea of asking, and continued to wait anxiously for the passage of time.

"Don't worry, Mr. Duck. Although the old man didn't say anything, Catherine, who was as good at speculating as a nobleman, had already noticed the old man's strangeness, and slightly took her attention away from Chester, and showed a comforting smile to old Dack: "If there is a real problem, Lina will definitely come up and tell us." No news is the best news, and the fact that she hasn't come up so far shows that everything is going very well. So don't worry, it's almost time to calculate, she should come up soon, and she will definitely hand over little Betty to you safely when the time comes, so you can wait with peace of mind. ”

There were constant voices coming from the window, as if the mayor had told the townspeople what had happened here last night, and some of the townspeople who passed by nearby saw that the lights were still on in the room, and they would stay for a while while when they passed by, and looked in from the window to comfort Old Dack for a while before leaving, but the old man in the room was obviously not in the mood to pay attention to them.

"It's coming. Pannis's ears moved, patted Eva's head with his hand, raised his voice and said: "Wake up, Lina has come up, although there is only her voice, but from the sound of footsteps, it should be a success, get up and welcome our hero." ”

"Look, I said don't worry. Catherine's smile had the power to soothe the soul, so that Old Dark's trembling body slowly relaxed, and when she saw Old Duck regain her composure, Catherine said to everyone: "Go over, I'll keep an eye on Chester here, lest he take advantage of the chaos and run away." ”

"What are you staring at? Freya walked briskly, dragged Chester by the back of the collar and made her way to the room where the basement entrance was. The pain caused Chester to wake up from his coma and let out a terrible wail again, but since Catherine came up and briefly described the scene below, no matter what the girls did, they no longer had a psychological burden, so Freya dragged Chester away as if she hadn't heard the wail.

Catherine smiled bitterly, the knight's faith made her reluctant to abuse the captive, but the belief in justice and the will of humanity told her that treating him like this was the result he deserved, and under the conflict of the two beliefs, she could only smile helplessly, shaking her head and following Freya's back. As for Old Dack, when Pannith said that Lina was coming, he had already rushed out with a completely inconsistent action with his age, and was the first to go into the basement, so that when everyone entered the basement, what they saw was Old Dack standing beside Lina rubbing his hands, looking at Lina expectantly like a child waiting for a gift, and he was so nervous that he couldn't even speak.

"Survived. Lina looked tired, the luster on her silver hair was a little dull, she held the law book in her arms, looked at Old Dake and frowned, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Don't be here, go up and wait, let you go up, you can go up, don't ask so much why, we have to clean up the things underneath." ”

Catherine's eyes immediately appeared in front of her eyes full of minced flesh below, as well as a large number of tools used to torture Betty, she couldn't help but jump out of the corner of her eyes, pushed Old Duck and said: "You go up first, this place is really not suitable for you to stay, we will send Betty up, you can wait on it with confidence, believe me, this is a knight's promise." ”

Until the old man reluctantly left, Lina suddenly breathed a heavy sigh of relief, regained her original demeanor, and said tiredly: "I'm tired, I've never felt so tired, I don't want to do this kind of thing in the future, whew, tired and scary, looking at that girl's appearance, I really want to turn around and run, if they hadn't forced me to stay, I would have run away a long time ago." ”

"Thank you. Catherine walked over and put her arms around Lina, allowing her to support her weight on her chest: "You helped everyone do what they wanted to do but couldn't, we should all thank you." ”

"That's what I want to do, I'm tired, but I'm still happy. Lina looked up and smiled at Catherine, her smile pure as that of a perfect saint: "She is asleep now, she looks like she hasn't slept for days, and she is so tired that she is tortured. In a moment, Freya, you can use your puppet to help bring her up, so that their father and daughter can meet, so that old Duck will not be worried all the time. ”

"How's she doing? Catherine asked, "Can her father handle it?"

"Actually, it's not bad, the leg must be lame, the arm can't do too heavy work in the future, the eyes will not be able to see the light for two or three years, and the rest will be nothing. Lina smiled evilly: "I can't go out to meet people for about half a year, and I will be able to return to my original appearance after half a year." ”

"Huh?" Catherine was stunned, "But just now Eva said that you were talking to Betty about ......"

"Obviously, it was Tifa scaring her. Lina bared her teeth and said: "She said that letting her despair in advance, and then giving her an extra surprise after the treatment can allow her to live better, if it is the other way around, I am afraid she will lose the courage to live." I'm so tired, I'll sleep first, eldest sister, I'll leave the rest to you, good night. (To be continued)
