"What did he say, baby?" asked Rog as he turned and crouched down in front of him, stroking his shoulder with his hand.
Little Wright's expression showed a hint of trepidation, and he said timidly, "When he left the entrance of the cave, he said to Sha U, 'It's my favorite thing to let two brothers die on the same sword!'"
Rogge sneered faintly after hearing this, got up and touched the child's head and said, "Don't be afraid, that guy likes to bluff!"
He turned around and was about to leave the cave, but he stopped again, as if he suddenly remembered something, pondered for a moment, turned back to the crowd and said, "You take the two children back to the academy first, I have something to deal with!"
With that, he ignored the calls of the others and strode out of the cave, only the little owl followed him without leaving an inch, and Rog hurried across the silver sand until he reached the other side of the bay, and when he turned back and saw that no one was following, he stopped.
He sat down on the beach, facing the ebb and flow of the sea, bowed his head and wrote a few words on the sand: Scorpio, sword, death, last step, brother......
He stared at these words for a long time, the sound of the waves echoing in his ears, and the sea breeze ruffled his sideburns, while he was only immersed in his own thoughts, and did not feel the slightest sense of everything around him, not even the little owl flying away from him.
There must be some kind of connection between these words spoken by Douglas. Rogge's gaze moved back and forth on a few Guan jiàn words, and he said to himself secretly in his heart.
His gaze fell on the last written "brother", and his mind recalled the child's words, William was obviously referring to more than just these two children, it reminded Rogge of Thundercastle, and thought of Thorin and Tyrrell who were at war.
"William traveled all the way from Thunder Castle to Isle of Elland Island, captured an actor pretending to be himself, led the Knights into the Cave of Ice and Fire, killed all the griffins of the Knights, and finally kidnapped three children, all of which he did seemed unreasonable, but perhaps, he was just waiting for something......"
Thinking of this, Rogge repeated the boy's words again in his heart, he smoothed the sand in front of him, and rewrote the brother, the sword, death, and the last step, but the last word Scorpio made him fall into confusion.
"What does Scorpio mean?" Rogge wrote the word at the end, staring at it for a long time but not getting the point, he recalled everything about Scorpio, but did not find any clues related to the previous words.
"Is that referring to Murphy?" Rogge jerked his head up and looked at the sea in front of him, the waves churning white under the blue sky, as if washing away the doubts in his heart, and he couldn't think of anything Murphy had to do with this.
At this moment, a hand suddenly reached out from his right shoulder, erasing the last letter "n" of the word "Scorpio", Rogge turned his head sharply and grabbed the arm, and a faint exclamation of the girl was heard in his ear.
"Catherine?" Rogge looked at the frightened girl in surprise, and the girl froze down, nodded to him apologetically, and said, "I'm sorry, did I disturb you?"
"No," Rogge asked Catherine, glancing around at the little owl who had buried himself in the sand and sleeping in the sand, "how did you know I was here?"
"Footprints, I followed the footprints. The girl sat down beside him and said.
"Unexpectedly, there were times when I was tracked by others. Rogge smiled when he heard this, looked down at the word that had been erased by Catherine, and asked, "Why did you erase that letter 'n'?"
"Didn't you just misspell it?" Catherine said with a serious look at him, "The word 'scorpion' doesn't have an n at the end!"
"Scorpion?" Rogge stared down at the word, couldn't help but smile and shook his head, "No, kid, I didn't write a scorpion, it was Scorpio, there is only one letter 'n' missing these two words, the pronunciation and writing are very similar, it's easy to make mistakes......"
Speaking of this, the smile on his face suddenly froze, he stared down at the word "scorpion" on the ground, muttered and repeated it, and suddenly shouted: "Yes, that's right, it's me wrong, I heard it wrong, I heard it wrong!"
Catherine, who was on the sidelines, was startled to see him use his hands to smooth out and rewrite all the words: brother, sword, scorpion, death, last step......
"That's right, it makes sense!" Rogge smiled excitedly and muttered to himself: "This insidious poisonous scorpion, his poisonous hook is finally exposed!"
"What are you talking about? What poisonous scorpions?" asked Catherine, who looked at him in surprise.
Rogge looked back at the curious expression on her face, suddenly reached out and wrapped his arms around her neck, and kissed her the face, the girl's cheeks suddenly became hot, and her whole face was as red as a ripe apple, and she looked at him blankly and didn't know what to do.
"Thank you, baby, you've done me a great favor!" Rogge got up from the ground, reached out and pulled her up from the ground, and said, "Come on, we need to rush back to the academy and get ready for William's last step!"
He reached out and scooped the little furball out of the sand, put her in his hat, and turned to walk in the direction of the academy, where Catherine caught up with him from behind and asked, "What was his last step?"
Rogge turned around and replied confidently, "It's Tully!"
......
When Rogge, Catherine, and Lilith hurried back to the Academy of Magic, Antonio and the others were already anxious, and everyone heard the news of Rogge's return, and immediately came to the hall of the Academy of Magic to meet him.
Before everyone could ask him what had happened, Rogge had already preemptively ordered, "Dean Kevin, please ask the tutor who teaches art in the academy to gather in the arts and crafts room, and I will go there with Miss Tully to find you later!"
Kevin was puzzled by this, but seeing that Rogge's attitude was very resolute, he had to leave full of suspicion.
Rogge then said to Antonio, "Mr. Commander, please go to the confinement room and let Douglas go, and take him to the dining room for a meal, and I will meet him later, and ask him to accompany Miss Tali to William." ”
"What? How can this be!" Antonio was taken aback when he heard this, and objected repeatedly: "It's already dangerous for William to let Tali go alone, and if this traitor goes with him, how can Tali's safety be guaranteed?"
"Of course I wouldn't see Miss Tully in danger, and if you don't do what I say, then the real danger will come to us!" replied Rogge resolutely.
Antonio was skeptical of Rogge's words, not knowing what he was having, and Tali on the side pondered for a moment and persuaded him: "Just do what Mr. Rogge says, he has always been right, we should believe him." ”
"I hope you're still right this time!" Antonio looked at Tali uncomfortably, and turned away after hesitating to Rogge.
"Murphy, come with me, Miss Tully, please wait here with Catherine!" Rogge beckoned Murphy to turn around and come to the gate, and the two whispered for a while, Murphy nodded as he listened.
"That's it, get it?" Finally, Rogge asked with concern, looking at Murphy.
"Leave it to me, I won't make another mistake this time!" replied Murphy firmly.
Rog nodded trustingly, turned back to Tali and asked her to summon the god of lights, he whispered a few words to the god of lights, the god of lights nodded in agreement, and opened a dimensional door in the hall, Rog and Murphy talked a few last words, patted him on the shoulder, and Murphy turned and walked into the dimensional gate.
"Where are you letting him go?" asked Rog and the Lantern God as they returned to Tali and Catherine, looking at them curiously.
"It's a secret, a secret between men, you'll know soon!" Rog winked mysteriously at the lamp god, who smiled slyly and returned to the oil lamp on Tali's waist in a cloud of blue gas.
"Alright, it's time for us to go to the art room to meet Dean Kevin and the professors, this is our last step, and when everything is ready, it's time for our game with William to begin!" Rogge said to the two, the corners of his mouth revealing a wisp of unpredictable mystery.
......
In the evening, a dimensional gate spawned on the golden sands of the Organ Coast.
A moment later, Tali appeared on the beach in a silver gauze dress, her long sea-blue hair blown up by the cool evening breeze on the seashore, and the slender skirt swayed gently in the sea breeze, making her slender silhouette unreservedly reflected in the sunset.
Different from the past, she had an extra green cloak on her body, the button at the neckline was tightly buttoned, the hood was not worn behind her back, and under the afterglow of the sunset, the whole person looked a little melancholy and lonely, I don't know if it was for herself or for the child she was going to save.
Immediately behind her, the figure of a man in silver armor appeared next to the dimensional gate, his shoulder draped in a white cloak symbolizing the Knights of the Silver Dragon's Wings, embroidered with a dragon with flapping wings, he was the deputy commander Douglas who had been ordered to accompany Tali.
The dimensional gate vanished behind the two of them, and Tali and Douglas stood on the empty sand, with the sea glowing like a bloody sun on one side and the distant forest in the shadow of night on the other, and there was no shadow of anyone around.
Tali glanced back at Douglas, the deputy head nodded silently, and the mermaid stepped forward and shouted loudly at the golden sand: "William, I'm here, according to your request, I only brought Douglas alone, I know that he is your person, this is not against your requirements!"
There was silence all around, and no one answered them except for the sound of the waves lingering in their ears, and Tali and Douglas looked at each other blankly, and the deputy head of the regiment motioned for Tali to shout again.
The Merfolk Guardian cleared her throat and shouted out to the beach again, her light voice echoing across the dusk sand, and even the sound of the waves became like music, lingering on the beach that was about to sink into darkness.
However, there was a long silence in response, and when the last rays of the sun finally set, the surroundings were completely plunged into darkness, and the night covered the land and swallowed the bewildered Tully and Douglas.
At this moment, a gloomy voice suddenly sounded from the sea behind them: "Good night, Miss and Sir, welcome to my dinner!"
