Chapter 32: Under the Cover of Night
In the eyes of most people, darkness is always extremely corrosive, they instinctively fear the night, and light is the sword that cuts through the darkness that envelops all things, and all the monsters lurking in the darkness will eventually have nothing to hide under the blade of glory, which is the common cognition of everyone in the Mu Continent.
Flora's words did not resonate with Mo Chen, people live in different classes, and their opinions on things will also be different. Growing up on the edge of the desert, he has the most simple idea that everything has its own reason for existence.
Those who shine under the light may not be pure and kind, but they are glorious but do devilish things. The land ruled by darkness is not all filth and ugliness, perhaps there is a crystal-clear mercy hidden under the deep night. If light can really dispel darkness, but can it really cut through the indifference that lies dormant in the heart?
"Darkness is not a breeding ground for danger, and who can guarantee that the light contains all hope? Death isn't that scary, at least that's what I think. Mo Chen felt the refreshing sea breeze, as if this salty breath could cleanse people's hearts.
Is this the wilted boy who only knows how to sleep and eat all day long, and spends most of his time in his mouth? When Flora heard this, a strange feeling rose in her heart. He is not the waste material that others remember, he may just use the surface of vulgarity to hide his wise and kind heart.
"Say it as if you're not afraid of death? Margaret was extremely disdainful of Mo Chen's stinky words, obviously an ignorant person, and she had to say that her heart was as deep as the sea. "Don't use this baseless nonsense to cover up your ignorance?
"I'm afraid! I'm afraid that there will be nothing after death, I'm afraid that everything will be buried under the loess, I'm afraid that I'll be forgotten, and no one will ever know that there is such a person as me in the world! They are more terrible than death! Please understand what I say, I said that death is not afraid, I didn't say that I am not afraid of death! And Margaret, please don't take ignorance for naivety! Could it be that there is no material in the breasts, and the head and storage are insufficient?"
Mo Chen, who had established a completely different image in Flora's heart a moment ago, suddenly collapsed at this moment. Sure enough, this guy will always look like a cheap mouth! Every time, he uses the shortcomings caught by others to lash out with the slightest politeness. You don't have any moral character in the sensitive parts of women, they deserve to be beaten! Although it is true that others are very flat, don't say it so directly.
There was no suspense, and the quick-tongued scrap was naturally stepped on the ground by Margaret again. If conditions permitted, Margaret would definitely stuff this scum into the shithole!
Natalia is silent, always insisting that she looks at everything around her with a smile, she is like a screenwriter, watching the plot unfold in an orderly manner. However, Mo Chen's strange behavior just now caught her attention. Although Mo Chen usually doesn't match the preface, there are still some special times when this person still has a certain use. Maybe he really felt that something dangerous was approaching them.
"Since you are afraid of death, you are also afraid of being forgotten. So why don't you tell us what you know? Let's get together and discuss what we can do. Natalia got up from her bed and slowly walked to the window to look at the dark sea of night, with a look of extreme disgust on her face. The inky night made her feel strange to everything around her, as if any familiar person and thing had been assimilated into monsters by the night, hiding in a dark corner and snickering.
"......" Mo Chen, who was being trampled under Margaret's feet, had no leisure to listen to these words, at this moment he just wanted to escape from the feet of this strange woman. Now that his life is about to be saved, who will care about the bad things in the future.
A knock at the door restored Margaret from a raging beast to a noble nobleman, and she immediately gave up the scrap under her feet, and said very gracefully to the people outside, "Please come in!"
When Irina opened the cabin door, she found that the guests on the trip were all in Mochen's room. However, someone who was the owner of the house had his back to her, his whole body trembling slightly, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Could it be that he knocked on the door at the wrong time, disturbing his good deeds, which made Mo Chen's classmates angry, and even his whole body trembled? Next to him, His Royal Highness Flora's face was even more rippling with happiness, delicate and lovely. It seems that he is really too reckless and destroys the feelings of others at this critical juncture.
Faced with this situation, Irina showed a panicked look on her face, but an extremely ambiguous color flashed imperceptibly in her eyes, and the gossip of a woman's nature was spreading and fermenting rapidly. It seems that this Mo Chen classmate is really lucky! Surrounded by three beauties every day, the greatest happiness in life is nothing more than this!
The private affairs of His Royal Highnesses should not be known to people of their own blood. Thinking of this, Illya lowered her head and said what she meant. "Please forgive Your Highnesses for being unreasonable and disturbing your nobles' resting time. There were some energy supply problems in the kitchen just now, so the dinner time for His Highness was delayed. Allow Irina to apologize for this. ”
Natalia withdrew her gaze from the dim sea and looked at Irina, who was a little reserved. With a touching smile on her face, she waved her hand to signal that Irina didn't have to blame herself, "It's okay! These unexpected things are inevitable, and you don't have to apologize for them." Also, everyone is a classmate, and there are no outsiders here, so just call us by our own names, and you don't need to call us Your Highness at this time. ”
"How can this be, even if it is a classmate, how dare I call His Highness's name with such a humble bloodline. Irina shook her head hurriedly, living in this respectful society made of blood, no one could cross the high wall of the bloodline. The lowly cannot call a person of noble blood by name, because they are imbued with this rigid thinking from birth. Irina is both a beneficiary of the lineage and a staunch supporter of this idea.
"Actually, you don't need to be presumptuous, everyone's identities are not far apart, and your bloodline is also a descendant of God, just like me. ”
Irina still shook her head, not daring to agree. Seeing that she was so persistent, Natalia also gave up her idea. Although she can let go of her identity, others may not dare to call her by her name. The ability of the bloodline has begun to appear since its birth in this era, and the higher the level of the bloodline, the more invisible deterrence it will have on those below it, this is the rule set by the times, and it is also the nature of their bones! Anyone who wants to break free from the shackles of this bloodline concept will be punished! It is because of such a deformed cage that she Natalia wants it to be shattered by her own hands even more. She's determined to change all that!
Hearing that the time for dinner was coming, Mo Chen's stomach also shouted on time, "Let's go, let's go eat, I didn't eat lunch today, I'm so hungry!"
His words made everyone's faces a little surprised, didn't this man know that he had slept for two whole days and one night?
"Do you know how long you've been asleep?" Flora looked at Mochen behind her back, with a strange face.
"One afternoon, how long will it be?" Mo Chen's face was hit hard, and he couldn't bear to scare Irina with his face, so he chose to face the sea. Therefore, he didn't see the expressions of the group of people behind him, but asked Flora very puzzled.
"You waste, you sleeping pig feel sorry for yourself. Do you know you've slept for two days and one night?"
"I know you're jealous, and you feel like you're not ...... Wait a minute, you said I slept for two days and one night?!" Mo Chen immediately turned his head around, revealing his completely deformed face to everyone.
Faced with this face that has been detached from human aesthetics, Irina can't bear to watch it any more. If it weren't for the fact that her voice and body still maintained her human characteristics, Illya would definitely kill this monster directly. It was no wonder that Mo Chen refused to turn his face towards him just now, it seemed that he had fully understood how much his honor would frighten ordinary people now.
"That's right!" the face, which had been detached from low taste, made Margaret feel extremely uncomfortable, although she was the main force that created it.
"Impossible!" Mo Chen muttered, "You must be lying collectively, I never remember that I could sleep so well!"
"Congratulations that you've broken the previous record, doesn't that mean that a generation of sleeping gods is about to rise, and you should be happy!" Natalia laughed, trying her best to "comfort" him.
"Well, it seems that what you said makes a lot of sense!"
“......”
On the other side of the Rhea, Veronica discreetly handed over a special glass test tube containing Yin Hong's blood to the middle-aged maid.
"I hope you will get to the island in time to deliver this blood to God's hands. He also informed her that the sacrifice was about to arrive, and asked her to give her some more time. ”
"My subordinates know that I will definitely arrive on time to the island and deliver the blood to the hands of Goddess Rhea with my own hands! I can swear with my life!" the middle-aged maid said firmly.
"Go away, I'll buy you some time. I believe that if this time is successful, your loved ones will be liberated from there!"
Veronica's words made the middle-aged maid's eyes seem to be ignited. Without saying another word, she turned and jumped into the dinghy that had been placed under the Rhea.
Until the darkness in the distance completely swallowed the dinghy, a chilling smile appeared on Veronica's lips.
"The time has come to change our fate! Soon our sisters will become the new Ram of the Empire!"
The night breeze on the deck whipped her pale yellow hair, the black water made the night even more intense, and Veronica listened to the sound of the waves crashing against the plank, with a never-ending persistence.
"What a night tonight is suitable for a deep sea freak dance, then play out this twisted scene at the dinner party!"
