Chapter 14: Epfaria's Cookies

The sound came from above the alley.

Xu Nan raised his head, and inadvertently saw a touch of stunning whiteness, and he looked at the owner of the voice calmly.

The latter is dressed in animal skin, and the pants on her crotch can cover the roots of her legs - this girl seems to have a unique talent in cold resistance, when Xu Nan met her in the Green Dragon Tavern a while ago, she was also dressed like this, and she had a stubborn temperament that was not afraid of the cold.

"Why are you here?"

Xu Nan greeted Erin.

"Because this is my home." Erin blinked, she still had a cup of black tea in her hand, she looked sleepy-eyed, probably because the nightlife was too high, and she had just gotten up at this time.

"Why did we meet here?"

Xu Nan couldn't help but complain.

"Because Erin is my friend. Composed...... Mr. Su, do you know each other? ”

Green was a little surprised.

Xu Nan was silent.

Okay, let's just say that Wildfire City is so small.

At Erin's beckoning, the two men did not shy away from entering her attic.

"Be soft, old lady Griffin hates men the most."

"When she was younger, she received too many men, and then she got an infectious disease and became blind in both eyes, so she now swears when she hears men's footsteps."

Erin shrugged her shoulders and pointed to the floor.

Green nodded, obviously he knew this, and Erin said this, probably introducing Xu Nan to her living situation.

Well, it's not a good loft, and I guess I lived here because the rent was cheap.

As a descendant of the Efarians and the Iceborns, it would be nice to have a place to live in Wildfire, and Erin seems to be living a dashing life, but maybe three meals a day will be a problem.

"We'll wait here."

Green straightened his clothes and said, "After a while, at night, they will go from house to house to recruit strong men, and they will not see anything in the dark, just look for an opportunity to blend in with the team; These people are all working the night shift and have access to the botanical gardens. ”

Xu Nan looked at Erin.

Green smiled lightly, "She'll keep it a secret for us." ”

"Because I'm her script and the only reader."

Erin snorted coldly, seemingly very dissatisfied.

In Green's explanation, Xu Nan understood that this girl really wanted to be a great playwright.

Unfortunately, her talent was limited, and her literacy level could only barely reach the point of preliminary writing, and if it weren't for the fact that she later met Greene and mastered more vocabulary with the help of the latter, she would not have been able to create.

The bastard son of House Sebalong and the half-breed of Efalia have a strange resonance, and the two become friends.

But that didn't stop Green from complaining about Irene's article.

"She wrote about the best sleep aids, and for a while, I was ...... You know ...... Because of that anxious insomnia, the only solution is to pick up her book in the middle of the night and read a few volumes to make you sleepy; Once I even fell asleep in the bathroom while reading her book, and the next day I was scolded by my wife......"

Green spat frantically, it seems that the talent and intelligence have nothing to do with it.

Irene's face became very unhappy:

"Dear Mr. Sebaron, haven't you told me more about how you were greened?"

Green scratched his head a little embarrassedly and gave Xu Nan a look.

Xu Nan smiled and signaled that he understood.

In the past few days, Green must have done what he said, and it worked; He had just quietly lost an appraisal technique, and found that this guy was already a third-level warlock!

It has been upgraded by two levels in three days, which is already the same upgrade speed as a rocket; This shows how terrifying the potential of a cuckold warlock is, if Xu Nan is given a chance to choose, he will definitely choose...... Refuse!

Nonsense, is this thing humanly affordable?

Xu Nan pondered that what he came up with was just an expedient measure, and with the increase in strength, Green's ...... It is possible to slowly and completely sink into a bottomless abyss.

Human desires are endless, especially when you have experienced that power, and there is an unquenchable thirst for more power.

When the time comes...... Hehe, yes, Green loves his wife very much, but in the future, who knows?

Xu Nan watched coldly, but he didn't think he was very clever.

Ron Warlock's bloodline is naturally flawed, and if it is not optimized, sooner or later, he will fall into the bottomless abyss.

"Anyway, you have nothing to do, why don't you read my new writing!"

Erin yawned and threw a large stack of paper to Green.

Green grimace was bitter, and after asking Xu Nan's opinion, he began to look at it.

Erin didn't seem to care, but Xu Nan found a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

"I still care about my work."

"Show it to Green, don't show it to me, because I'm afraid of more blame."

Xu Nan sighed softly in his heart.

Anyway, to kill the afternoon, he turned on the system of Paradise Lost and bored browsing some information.

By the way, he was thinking about whether or not to buy himself some spells.

He was already able to buy a tenth-level spell, although with the addition of [Secret Method-Spell Optimization] and other specialties, Xu Nan's fireball could be used as a flame blaster, but the high-level spell still had its irreplaceability.

Especially when Wildfire City is in danger, you can't count on hugging your thighs anytime and anywhere!

He began to study the list of spells.

As the minutes ticked by, Xu Nan still hadn't decided which spells to buy - shame points were getting harder and harder to earn, and he had to learn to throttle before he could open source.

I really can't do it, so I'll have to deal with these spells for a while!

Luckily, he still has a Bileg combination!

At this time, Xu Nan suddenly noticed that Green, who had been complaining about Irene's work before, was actually very nervous!

His hands were clutching the manuscript paper tightly, and there was sweat on his forehead.

He seems to be drawn into the storyline and can't help himself.

"Did you write a good story?"

Xu Nan narrowed his eyes.

It didn't take long for Green to let out a sigh of relief.

His eyes are complicated and he still seems to be immersed in the world of the story.

"Tell me what's going on?"

He looked at Erin a little impatiently: "Did they find the missing partner?" What kind of mechanism is a moving stone statue? What exactly is the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes? ”

His words choked out like a machine gun, and Erin froze there.

Instantly, she burst out laughing.

"Mr. Sebaron, you don't seem to be asleep."

Green scratched his head and looked incredulous:

"Erin, this story is different."

"It's a world of difference from what you wrote before, those stories before were really just shit, but this one is different......"

Xu Nan complained in his heart, no matter how powerful the drama is, in front of my Tianchao Shuangwen, it is also a scumbag.

At least in terms of the pleasure of reading, these relatively backward ways of creating are incomparable.

He wondered if he should steal some to copy, but it was a matter of time before the world merged, so what if the original owner found out?

As he thought this, Green was already pleading:

"Apologies! I apologize to you! ”

"You're definitely a great writer."

"I just want to know how it ends?"

After enjoying Green's praise, Erin smiled and said, "I haven't thought about the ending yet." ”

"Thanks to the Theron wine that the Lord of the City invited me to drink, I was able to have such a good inspiration!"

"I've been dreaming a lot lately, and there are a lot of strange fragments and whispers in my dreams, and I find a lot of inspiration from them...... It's a pity that the Theron is gone. ”

She looked at Xu Nan with an ambiguous gaze.

Green drank a cup of tea before his emotions calmed down:

"Honestly, it's definitely a good book – as long as there's a good ending."

"But, to be honest, there are too many thrilling and gloomy content in it, and it's completely different from your previous fairy tale-style style, which surprised me. Some of the descriptions of monsters I can't believe, I can't imagine, in short, some are too twisted and terrifying......"

Xu Nan listened quietly, and the gap was a little wrong.

"Can I read your manuscript?"

He asked.

"Sorry...... Lord of the Castle, when I finish writing the book, I will definitely offer it with both hands. Not yet. ”

Erin smiled apologetically and carefully put the manuscript away.

Xu Nan shrugged and didn't say anything.

"I'll treat you to cookies!"

Erin generously ran into the bedroom, changed into a cook's clothes, and went downstairs like a cheerful little bee.

Soon, the aroma of cooking came from downstairs.

"She's a good girl." Green looked at Xu Nan.

Xu Nan got up suddenly:

"Help me with the wind."

So saying, he took three steps and two steps, and ran to the head of Irene's bed, which seemed to be where she wrote, and had a very old quill pen.

He found the manuscript and skimmed through it quickly—honestly, if it weren't for the fact that Erin only had one manuscript, he would have even wanted to eat it directly.

"This story ......"

Xu Nan half-knelt on the ground and groaned.

"Mr. Xu Nan, although I admire you very much, it is ...... to peep into other people's privacy"

Green was a little cramped.

Xu Nan stood up suddenly:

"Help me keep it a secret first, it's for Erin's good."

"Don't you think this work is too strange?"

"I have some guesses, but I can't say ...... yet"

Green thought about it, and it was clear that 9 points of intelligence could only support him to read the popular, but not to think deeply.

"So what should I do?"

He asked.

"Shut up and eat the cookies."

Xu Nan replied with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, Erin, who walked upstairs with a smile and a skirt, gently put down the tray in her hand:

"Afalia's cookies!"

"As much as I hate those people, their cookies are really good, and I learned them at a very young age."

"Taste it."

She smiled very sweetly, and a few pale cyan lines faintly appeared on her fair face.

……

Night.

Erin went out to work.

The two men were still waiting.

Sure enough, as Green said, there was a commotion in the streets and alleys, and the guards of Sebalon were recruiting strong men from house to house, and the employees of the plantation had never been a fixed position, so Xu Nan was given an opportunity.

He threw a sleep spell at Old Lady Griffin, and together with Green, he pretended to be a strong man of the family, followed a squad leader, and blended into the team.

In the middle of the night, the men were assembled, walked out of the north gate, and slowly headed towards the plantation north of Wildfire City.

Looking at the black-pressed team, Xu Nan suddenly seemed to see a mixed shadow.

The shadow lurked beneath the ranks like the claws of a demon.

He took a deep breath and steadfasted his pace forward.

And the people who are numb to move forward have no reaction.

After about two hours on foot, they reached the entrance of the plantation.

According to Green's introduction, this group of people will work on the plantation for half a month and then be replaced.

"Queue up and get your work number and desk!"

Someone carried a kerosene lamp and roared loudly with a whip in the cold night:

"Work well, have clothes to wear, and food to eat; Deliberately mischievous, there is also food, and that is my whip! ”

With that, he slapped the ground twice, and the snow splashed.

The people of the ice fields suffered all this in silence. In their opinion, the overseers of Sebaron were not excessive, after all, they were only poor people and not slaves, and those slaves who worked on the plantations were really miserable - it was said that the average life expectancy did not exceed six months, and it was not known whether it was true or not.

Xu Nan wore a fraudster mask, and at this time he looked like an ice man, and went up to get his work number and station.

Well, he seems to be in charge of a simple extraction process.

There will be a special person responsible for teaching the specific operation, and he just needs to follow along.

After the workstation is assigned, there will be a corresponding person carrying a kerosene lamp to pick it up.

Many of the Ice Plains seem to be familiar with the road, so although there are many people at night, the order is not chaotic.

Xu Nan and Green were assigned to two positions, and the latter said that he would find a way to slip away directly.

Xu Nan was ready to wait and see what happened.

It's just that before he can successfully blend into the plantation, a mutation has happened!

The overseer, who was carrying a kerosene lamp and a long whip, suddenly cursed and whipped at a few people who were at a loss!

"I knew you pariahs wanted to harm me!"

"Still babbling in my ear?"

"I'll kill you!"

His eyes, gradually bloodshot, turned an abnormal red.

At the entrance of the plantation, the order suddenly became chaotic!

At first, the beaten Ice Plains didn't dare to fight back; Who knew that the overseer would become more and more fierce, Xu Nan keenly noticed that strange lines appeared on his face, and his skin became cracked.

He tickles while hitting people.

He scratched and scratched, the skin of his entire chin scratched off, and in the light of the kerosene lamp, a bloody wound and some wriggling, tiny tongue-like object......

"Mutation? Cthulhu? Or the whispers of the Old Gods? ”

Xu Nan, who had long been suspicious of the plantation, instantly proposed three possibilities.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared and rushed into the crowd.

With a single sword, he cut off the overseer's head.

"It's not a pity to die when you drink and go crazy when you drink during working hours."

He said deliberately out loud.
