Chapter 29 Rules and Rules
The fat man came and went freely, and in the end he just left two sentences without a beginning and an end, which made people suspicious. After clearing the road, the exiles' team continued to move forward, but El's heart never let go.
To say that being targeted is not a big deal. The hatred of the Istalans for the Cursed Sect can be said to be endless, and after that annihilation battle, El's estimated that his unit should also be officially on the blacklist of the dead.
As for the Truth Society hidden in the shadow of the Oakland Kingdom, those old immortals with no lower limit don't need to worry too much, they use the entire kingdom as a chessboard, and the princes and lords as chess pieces, and the time span of each step of the plan is in ten years and a hundred years, and a little-known small character like El may not be qualified to be put on the table.
Of course, the number of times El stepped on the thunder along the way is also a bit frequent, and it is difficult to say whether it will attract the attention of those who care. Adrian's special puzzle in Dimion is so old that no one but the Shadow Councilor remembers it. However, the future of General Hank and his Night's Watch force is still a question, and El's desire to absorb this elite force into his hunting regiment remains doubtful about their loyalty.
Once you've arrived at Thunder Fortress, you'll have to find a chance to talk to General Hank.
Another troubling issue is the fall of the Dollmaster, a veteran gold-ranked powerhouse in the kingdom of Oakland, whose death is enough to cause a violent court upheaval.
Although no one has been able to dig up the truth from the ruins of the former Sword Castle after a series of fierce battles between the Kor and the Immortals, Diana, the heir of the North Wind family, the would-be Sword Saint and future Queen, is now hiding in the ranks of the exiles.
As long as someone deliberately investigates, this matter cannot be hidden for long.
When he thought about it, El suddenly realized that he really had a reason to be noticed by the madmen of the Truth Society, but his intuition still vaguely felt that these things had nothing to do with the fat man's reminder.
"That Mr. Jager is at least at the pinnacle of silver, and he claims to be from the blood-colored fangs, and he is definitely not unknown in the Thunder Fortress. ”
Contrary to El's thinking, Andlov, as the chief staff member of Tiana's side, has always tended to look at things from the perspective of aristocratic politics, and the appearance of the fat man gave him some premonitions that were not so good.
"Lord Churkin, who is also a descendant of the Four Knights of the North, inherited the title of lord and has been in the Thunder Fortress for more than thirty years. The Scarlet Fangs are famous, but they are in fact the boar family's personal guards, in other words, this Mr. Jager should represent the will of Lord Churkin himself. ”
Andelov frowned, stroked his gray beard, and said with a serious face: "But we have sent a letter to Lord Churkin earlier asking for help, and we have also received a written reply from the lord, according to the rules between noble lords, this is equivalent to signing an informal contract. No matter what twists and turns come up in the middle, even if he repents about it, he will not be able to raise it until we officially meet. ”
"The lord didn't say he wouldn't meet us, he just sent a fat man to stop us on the road and give us a welcome gift. El Leng snorted and said, "I thought he should be the image of a tough guy, and I don't know what it means to be so secretive." ”
"I don't think that's necessarily what Lord Churkin meant...... That Mr. Jager was not hostile to us, as if he was just trying to test our strength. Tiana said hesitantly.
El knew she hadn't said a word, and that was that if Lorana woke up, she would be able to deduce the fat man's true intentions. When it comes to speculating on people's hearts and deducing the truth through the details, Lolana is a well-deserved expert.
It's a pity that Rolana hasn't really woken up until now, Jessica has absorbed most of the power of the Hellbriar Seed, and has been in contact with her consciousness, so it stands to reason that there should be no problem, but I don't know why, she never opened her eyes.
Walking into Luo Lana's carriage, there was a strange smell in the air, and the bodies of the two girls were entangled in the dim candlelight, full of **** breath. Elce frowned slightly, watching Jessica reluctantly spit out Lorana's pink tongue, a wisp of transparent saliva connecting the lips of the two people, the image was enough to trigger the impulses and reverie of any normal man.
El coughed dryly, and whispered angrily, "I asked you to help, and you got my woman to bed?"
"I can't pretend I didn't hear that, Shogun. Jessica unhurriedly wiped the corners of her mouth, pressed the unwielding girl under her, looked at El provocatively and chuckled, "Lolana and Palanti, and that Miss Lanstadt, which girl is the woman you love the most......?" Do you say that you don't want to let go of any of them in your heart? The man with a heart is really annoying, but if he does have the ability, we don't mind coming in and getting involved. ”
"Don't change the subject, tell me what the hell you're up to!" El's head burst into a scowl and he said with a blank face. Jessica is very observant, but unfortunately it's all just speculation. Although El does not have a clear conscience in this regard, it is not as simple as the girl guessed.
Tiana was El's first crush in life, but due to their own reasons, they were not able to develop further in the end, and their heart-to-heart relationship was more like a tacit understanding between comrades-in-arms. As Tiana regained her credentials as the Sun God Elector, there was an invisible gap between the two people's feelings.
Although Palanti's feelings for El are obvious, in the eyes of those around him, it is more like a kind of family dependence. El was ordered in front of her father, Sir Pross, and while accepting the command of the Black Knight, she also took over the responsibility of caring for Palanti. El has always treated her as a sister, as for whether the girl herself wants to or not that's another matter, she's still young, and there's still a long way to go.
As for Lolana, she can be regarded as a woman who occupies a certain position in El's heart. The bad relationship between the two people began with Jupiter Firm, and they were accompanied by ups and downs along the way, and they had already laid a solid emotional foundation for each other, but for some reason, they had not spoken until now.
El is because of the thorn in his heart, and Lolana is because of the hidden danger in his body.
Feeling El's anger, Jessica pouted and retracted her neck, and whispered aggrievedly, "People are just joking...... A stinky man like you can't understand our women's dedication to cleanliness, right? Miss Lolana has been bedridden for a long time, and I'm just helping her wipe her body. ”
Looking at the wet towel that the girl took out of her chest with an innocent expression, Elton was speechless. How could he not know about Lolana's cleanliness, even in a place where drinking water is a problem in the brown hills, she did not hesitate to spend a lot of magic to make clean water specially used for washing, and she also said that this was the insistence of a lady.
Tiana also has this problem, even if she wears a robe and veil every day, she has to find a way to wipe her body. Patanti, who was born in the army, does not have this kind of exquisiteness, and it is enough to wash his face.
Merely...... How did Jessica know about this ** habit of Lorana?
Thinking of the words that the girl said on her shoulder after the previous battle, El already had a little guess in her heart. So he tentatively asked, "Can you communicate with Lorana now?"
"In absorbing the power of the Hellbriar Seed, it is inevitable that our consciousness will merge. Jessica nodded, a signature smile on her face that was so familiar to El.
"It's a blending of souls, not a simple communication. In words you can understand, we now have a part of each other. ”
"And who are you now?" Seeing that familiar smile, El couldn't help but feel numb in his heart. He couldn't help but blurt out just now, saying something as shameful as "my woman" to Jessica. If Lolana really hears it, it will be embarrassing.
"Who am I now? It's a hard question to explain. Jessica raised the corners of her mouth, looked at El's embarrassed expression and grinned, "But I can answer the other question in your mind, why can't Miss Lolana wake up yet?"
"Why?" asked El as he reined in his embarrassment.
"I've absorbed most of the power of the Hellrose Seed, but I can't do anything about it. Jessica shrugged her shoulders and said, "Princess Rose Hacksuna is one of the most powerful beings in Hell, and the seeds she planted are equivalent to oracles issued by the gods of the human world, and they have constituted a kind of 'rule' in themselves. With my strength, I can devour the power in it, but I can't break the 'rules' themselves. ”
"Let's just say the answer......" Hearing Jessica start to speak at length, El had a headache, he was now finally sure that the girl was not joking before, this kind of broken mouth is definitely a unique natural ability of Lolana.
"The requirement of this 'rule' is actually very simple, which is to pass on the seeds to the next generation when the parent body does not meet the standard...... In other words, to seek a spouse and to have children. Jessica's face flushed, and she looked into El's eyes and chuckled, "If you want to save your woman, then do something with her!"
