Chapter 18: The City of Ishtar (5)
"Dear sister, if your brain is as passionate as your body, then I want to remind you that it's time to calm it down. You know, when our soldiers go out, they often go through a lot of grass. What do we want from these barren lands? The queen wants soul power, and only humans are the most vulnerable to fall and be seduced. ”
"Well, even if we don't need the land, there are plenty of dwarves and elves, so why give it up to Drow?" Orica was unconvinced.
"We only pretend to say yes in order to calm the other side and avoid infighting before we can gain the benefits of occupying the surface. This time, Corores spoke her mind in Demy's place.
"I see," Orica laughed, "it's pretending anyway, so why don't you say yes?"
"Sister," cried Demi in exasperation, "how can we gain the trust of Sydney if we don't bargain, let alone deceive that cunning and terrible old spider." ”
When the three Radiant Nuns disappeared from Cass, he knew they had used magic to enter another claustrophobic space.
Now, Cass stood alone in the empty dormitory of Corores, not knowing how long he would have to wait for a reply from the other party to bring him back to his life.
The hot pain of the place on his body that had been whipped by Orica made Cass have a certain familiar tremor, and even a little perverted pleasure.
Thankfully, the three Radiant Nuns soon reappeared, each with a charming smile on their faces, leaving Cass completely confused.
"This is our reply. Corores said, pushing a piece of paper flat over.
Cass received the letter and immediately turned away.
"Isn't he a man who is inferior to a pig or a dog, and doesn't have eyes, and he can't see our beauty?" said Orica.
At this moment, a waitress peered out, and Orica saw that it was their right-hand man, Juno.
"Come in!" said Orica, "what's the matter with you?"
"I've just noticed a phenomenon that I think might have some value, so ......" Juno also had a striking red lip, and she was the same waitress who brought Cass in to find Corores.
"Speak quickly!" Orica urged.
"The Drow Emissary, he seems to be interested in Amber of Midland, our magical family that has pledged allegiance. ”
"Ambell, the yellow-haired girl?" Orica asked, looking suspicious.
"Yes. ”
"You tell me about such a trivial matter, and you say it's valuable! It only confirms my opinion, that drow ant has no eyes!" Orica said angrily, she couldn't accept that a man who ignored their sister was tempted by a human girl who had not dried up.
"Sister, don't get excited, I think Juno is doing a good job!" said Demi.
"Yes, Side of Breathintam needs one of ours too. Corores said suddenly.
At this time, Orica also understood, and the three beautiful women looked at each other and smiled.
On the way back, Cass was a little distraught, but he managed to safely cross the dangerous place he had come.
Upon arriving at the spot where he had first found the body of the Drow woman, Cass involuntarily stopped again, in disbelief.
Of course he wouldn't find another body here, but he saw someone who shouldn't have been here.
"Hi, there. We meet again. A human maiden with a black cat in her arms smiled at him, the same person he had thought of several times along the way, and tried to get rid of his mind, Amber.
Cass is once again on the defensive.
Amber smiled again: "I said, you are the same as Leonardo. ”
"Who is Leonardo?" Cass actually heard himself ask.
"That's it. Amber lifted the black cat up and showed Cass.
Cass's body moved, but his muscles had unconsciously relaxed.
"What's your name?" asked Ambell.
Cass continued to maintain a defensive stance, looking at the girl.
"My name is Ambell. The girl laughed, and she smiled beautifully.
"I know. Cass heard himself talking again.
"And what about you? what's your name?" asked Amber, tilting her head slightly.
"Don't answer her, don't answer her, don't answer ......" Cass stopped himself in his heart, but he heard himself answer again: "Cass." ”
"Cass, cas, cass. The girl read it, as if to keep his name in mind, and then the girl smiled at Cass and said, "Then we know each other." Here you go. With a wave of his hand, he plucked a verdant green leaf from his head and threw it over.
"Don't take it, don't take it, don't ...... it," Cass protested again in his heart, but his hand hesitantly stretched out, and a green leaf was already lying in his hand.
Amber left with a smile.
Cass looked at her back, full of doubts about this mysterious human girl, and only after he couldn't see the other party's figure at all, did he look down at the green leaf in his hand, what a rare color in the underground world! Cass wanted to throw it away, but he was so unlucky that he hid this green leaf in his arms like a treasure.
Midland Forest.
Dara finally made her decision.
"Moradin's beard!" cried Todak, the dwarf, leaping from his seat to the ground, rubbing his palms in disbelief at Darla's decision.
The samurai Mike gave his usual mocking smile and said, "I knew it." His tone of voice showed that he had anticipated the outcome of the matter and had already guessed the outcome before Darla made her decision.
Blotto, the other dwarf, was still sitting upright in his chair, while his faithful follower, the two-headed giant Cruru, was obeying Blotto's orders, standing outside the house, holding the door of the house like a dog, and not letting anyone in.
It was a small meeting, attended only by Darla, the two dwarves, and Mike. They were about to be drawn into a war, and war was a men's business! Darrah was no longer the same as before, and had to consult with all the main companions who traveled along the way. This is not because his feelings for Jeanie, Lina or Vantania or even his brother have changed, but because he has established a relatively complete management system, and no matter how close his feelings are to his partners who are not in the corresponding positions, he will no longer confide in military secrets about the movements of the troops.
The little girl Jeanie fully understands this, and despite the fact that Dara has no secrets to her, her natural reticence, combined with her infinite admiration and love for Darla's brother, makes it futile for anyone who tries to dig up news from her. (To be continued.) )
