Chapter 50 Dou Mien, Ascend Mi Hatred
When the skeleton saw Nereus's situation, he was anxious and was about to rush over. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
You know, the skeleton has placed a "heavy bet" on Nereus, if Nereus has three long and two short, the skeleton is estimated to lose all his money!
"Are you going to save Sister Neros now?" Seeing that the skeleton was about to rush to help, Yi Mengxian stopped the skeleton, "I think, it's not appropriate to go now!"
"Huh?" the skeleton looked at Yi Mengxian suspiciously, but also gave up the plan to go immediately, and asked with interest, "Tell me about it!"
The skeleton didn't doubt Yi Mengxian's motives, and he didn't believe that Yi Mengxian would do such an ignorant thing out of "jealousy" - because the skeleton believed that Yi Mengxian would not be so superficial!
You must know that Yi Mengxian's investment in Nereus's body is clearly known, and Yi Mengxian has always seen the skeleton's expectations for this investment income, so in this case, whether it is public or private, it is impossible for Yi Mengxian, who has always been centered on skeletons, to obstruct it at this time.
Then, since it wasn't an obstruction, it must have been out of consideration for maximizing the interests of the Demon Emperor Castle - the skeleton believed that Yi Mengxian must have her reasons for doing this!
"My Emperor!" Yi Mengxian said, "Have you ever thought that there are traitors among the people around Sister Nereus!"
The skeleton's expression moved, and it suddenly came to its senses.
You must know that according to what you saw in the Potter's mirror image technique before, the chasing army was divided into two groups, one in front and one behind, and it was supposed to be prepared to attack in the front and rear of Orr Village, but because of the skeleton inserting a pole, the front line of the pursuing army was completely destroyed, and Neros and his party were able to escape.
However, because the front army was wiped out by the skeletons in one fell swoop, none of them could escape and report to the chasing army behind, so naturally, the rear pursuit army should come to Orr Village according to the "strategic route" at the beginning.
But now, not only did the rear pursuers not follow the predetermined route to Orr, but instead bypassed Orr Village and chased Nereus and his party like an unpredictable prophet.
What's even more speechless is that the skeleton can see from the image of the mirror art that the pursuers are blocking them in front of Neros and his party.
"You mean......" the skeleton frowned, "the whereabouts of Nereus and his party have long been targeted, and even the inner ghost has already been planted inside?"
Yi Mengxian spread his hands and expressed his helplessness: "Otherwise, is there any other explanation?"
"So what should I do now?" the skeleton asked a little tangled at this time, and couldn't help but turn his head to the think tank Rong Rong.
"Wait!" Rong Rong only gave the skeleton one word when asked by the skeleton.
"Wait?" the skeleton wondered, in this situation, the skeleton didn't understand why it needed to wait, did it wait for the rebel to jump out?
The skeleton reckoned that the traitor would not have jumped out so early until the last moment of the decision to succeed - at least until Nereus was ambushed!
If it really waits for that moment, then the "investment" of the skeleton in Nereus will not have any "return".
"That's right, just wait!" Rong Rong's eyes narrowed, still in the same unhurried tone, but it gave people the feeling that everything was under control, "First of all, although it is difficult for the traitor to jump out on his own initiative in this situation, it does not rule out the possibility - if the traitor is stupid enough or too arrogant!"
"Secondly, you can take this opportunity to see their combat power clearly, and use this to infer the general combat power of this continent - although it is only a principality, there must be no mediocre people who can guard the princess's side!" Rong Rong continued to elaborate his opinion, "In this way, at least we can determine how far our Demon Emperor Castle can temporarily advance in this world at this stage!"
"And, most importantly, I don't think it's the best time to save her!" Rong Rong said a little sinisterly, "If you save her now, you will only get her gratitude, without the kind of pain in the face of life and death, it will not attract enough attention from people at all, but will make them feel that they can get through the difficulties without our help, and even take this kind of rescue for granted! The metaphor of 'Dou Mien, Shengmi Qiu' is not very appropriate here, but it probably means so!"
"Really?" the skeleton nodded, indicating that Rongrong's proposal had been approved.
"And ......," Rong Rong continued, "with us here watching, if Neros really encounters any danger, we can also rescue them in time - after all, knowing their location, it only takes a spatial teleportation to reach her in an instant, isn't it?"
After listening to Rong Rong's words, the skeleton dispelled even the last trace of hesitation, and gladly accepted Rong Rong's proposal to "sit by".
"So......" Rong Rong suggested, "Shall I give the Skeleton Emperor a facelift?"
"Huh?" the skeleton couldn't help but look at Rong Rong suspiciously, not understanding what she meant by this.
"If you go to save the princess later, is the Skeleton Emperor going to use camouflage again? If this princess asks you to face her with her true face, what will you do?" Rong Rong said with a smile, "I don't think you want to put your skeleton face in front of her like this, right? Otherwise, I think, not only will you not be favored by her, so that your plan will not succeed, but if it causes her resentment, then it will not be a fun thing to try to make trouble for us when the time comes!"
"Then ......," said the skeleton hesitantly, "Shall I come back after saving people?"
"Do you think you can really come back after saving people?" asked Rong Rong with some amusement.
"Why?" the skeleton wondered.
"Although I don't know where they are going and what they have to do, but judging from the current situation, the dangers they will encounter in the future will not be less, plus at this time, they have just encountered danger, and they are panicking, and you happen to have a 'good relationship' with them. Whether it is for their own safety or for the safety of their princess, they will definitely do everything possible to keep you, because only in this way can the survival rate of their group be improved!" Rong Rong still looked gentle, but made a rare joke: "Besides, if your little lover begs you, can you really bear to refuse?"
