"When, when", seven bells rang, seven times in a row.

The cheers came to an abrupt end, and the West Gate fell into a deathly silence. Many of the soldiers even had happy smiles on their faces that had escaped, and when they heard the bells, the smiles immediately froze on their faces, and nearly a hundred people turned their heads almost simultaneously in the direction of the city center, and from there, the dull sound of bells stood one after another, from each bell tower throughout the city.

"Your Majesty......"

Someone was blankly facing the city center, muttering unconsciously in his mouth, his voice seemed to be contagious, and as he whispered, more and more soldiers began to whisper to His Majesty.

"Your Majesty!"

Finally, a soldier was awakened by his own muttering, and suddenly broke out with a hoarse shout, subconsciously kneeling on the ground with weak legs, pounding the ground and making a painful sound, more and more soldiers reacted, these people secretly looked at each other, and then fell to the ground like the leader of the leader, crying even more heartbreakingly, one more real than the other, for a while, the city gate post was surrounded by crying, and the sad atmosphere almost rushed to the edge.

Among the military personnel, only Matthew was not like the others, he also stared in the direction of the castle in a daze, but soon sighed deeply, and fell to one knee in the direction where Wesley was, his head bowed and motionless like a sculpture, in a trance, not knowing what to think.

"What? The old thing is dead? Just dead? Hahahaha, it's really dead. The young female voice sounded particularly abrupt in the cries of a group of men, Aurora's expression at this time was very strange, as if she was trying very hard to show joy and joy, and even let out a piercing dry laugh, but laughing and laughing, for some reason tears flowed, she slammed her fist on the wall of the outpost, wiped her tears and shouted in a low voice, "It's good to die, I'm so happy, I've never been so happy since I was a child, I'm going to have a drink in the evening to celebrate, woo, Monica, Come with me for a drink in the evening, woo-woo. ”

"Smack", Aurora was looking down to wipe her tears, a hand gently patted her head, and when she turned around, it was Babu who rubbed her hair. Babu just wanted to say something, but saw Abby shaking his head at him, he muttered for a moment, and finally swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, patted Aurora on the shoulder again, and said softly: "No matter what happens later, you don't have time to be sad, Third Highness, in the next few days, you will be very, very busy, so busy that you will not have time and opportunity to have a few drinks for a long time." ”

"Huh?" Aurora scratched her head with red eyes, her big eyes full of questions, "What can I do?" ”

"Heh......" Babu looked at Abby, and finally did not answer Aurora's question, but looked at General Matthew, who was striding over.

"Your Highness, Your Excellency the Apostle, and two Excellencies of the Traveler." Matthew knocked on everyone's chest with a heavy expression and saluted, "I wanted to organize the brothers and express my gratitude to the two travelers, but now that this kind of thing has suddenly happened, it is impossible to celebrate anymore, this kindness, I and the brothers of the personal guard will always remember it in our hearts, and I will thank the two of you when the matter is over." Now, I need to rush back to the castle with some of my brothers, and now we will see you in the castle later. ”

"We're definitely going back too." Babu said with a smirk, "Let's just go together." ”

"No need, let's go by ourselves, not with anyone else." Matthew said meaningfully, "We've always gone by ourselves, so that everyone can rest assured." ”

"Oh? Where are you going? ”

"Castle." Matthew lowered his gaze and said affirmatively, "Of course it's a castle, and it can only be a castle." ”

"I see, this is a good habit, then I wish His Excellency the General all the best on this trip." Babu nodded thoughtfully, "Then let's borrow this outpost for a little rest, General Matthew, you might as well go and get busy first, if nothing happens, let's see you in the city center later." ”

Matthew didn't say much, turned around and left, named a few officers, and admonished the rest for a while, and then the group jumped on their horses and left. The rest of the soldiers looked at each other, and ran in line, although they deliberately remained silent, but they still bowed to Babu Monica and Aurora, and then lined up, and under the leadership of the remaining officers, they moved silently towards the station, leaving only the most basic defense force at the city gate.

"Phew, at least we didn't break our promise to you and Ira." When everyone had left the area, Babu let out a sigh and approached the outpost tremblingly, and Monica also trembled and stood up from her bed. Before the two could get close, Babu staggered under his feet, and Monica subconsciously reached out to help each other, but she didn't have the strength to stand firmly, and the two fell crookedly and rolled on the bed.

Awkwardly looked at the door, I don't know when, Abby blocked the door, just to stop Aurora's behavior of snooping inside, making the atmosphere in the outpost instantly ambiguous, Monica's cheeks were slightly red, biting her lip and just about to say something, she felt that something seemed to be squirming between her and Babu.

Looking down, Anna, who was sleeping on Babu's back, was squeezed by the two, and even in her sleep, she showed extreme dissatisfaction, grabbed an arm from the side and took a big mouthful, and then fell back to Babu's back in a daze, and continued to fall asleep drooling.

The two opened their mouths wide, looked at the small tooth marks with saliva on Monica's arm in surprise, and were stunned for a few seconds before Monica secretly poked the little guy's little face with baby fat, and smiled: "This is the first time the little guy has bitten me, and she has also learned badly, she only bit you before." ”

"There are only zero and countless bites." Babu smiled and said softly, "Open this head, she will bite you more and more often in the future, and you won't be able to run away, Your Excellency our captain." ”

"Now it's Monica and the president of the Babu Chamber of Commerce." Monica took out the half-bitten wooden sign from her handbag and shook it, but quickly put away her smile and asked seriously, "You and her...... It's all right, I don't think you're doing well. ”

"There's no way, there's always a price to pay for using power beyond your own capabilities." Babu sighed and smiled bitterly, "But it's not a big problem, I'm just seriously overdrawn, and it should be fine to rest for a few days." And she probably helped me share part of the cost, so she was also shocked. Anyway, we're both just weak for a while, so it's good to take a few days. On the contrary, it's you, you shouldn't have reached the point where Judy has begun to mutate, and the entire body is destroyed by polluted energy to the point of being shattered, how can you look weaker than her, I remember that she can already sit up. ”

As she said this, Babu took Monica's hand and tried to sense the contamination in her body, but she was on the verge of mutation just now, and now she has returned to normal, and she can't see any damage in her body.

"I can sit up, I can stand up." Monica withdrew the hand that was grabbed by Babu, and gently punched him, giving him an angry look, and then explained, "Although the process and method are debatable, Abby has spent a lot of effort, I see that she is also very hard, and the effect is very old, my pollution has been absorbed by most of it, and now I don't have to worry about the threat of mutation." But there was a problem, she didn't seem to be able to distinguish between polluted energy and normal energy when she didn't know what to use to drain the polluted energy from my body, so even my normal energy to support physical activity was drained of most of it. Maybe that's the price you said you had to pay, just join forces with the two of you to kill ......"

"It's the three of us." Babu interrupted Monica, "Without the foreshadowing of the previous few days, we wouldn't have been able to get to where we are now, let alone kill the boss-level mutants. So I just said, you can't run away, you will be bitten by Anna every day in the future, hehe, anyway, the journey has not come to an end, and my sister will continue to accompany the dead child in the future, hehe. ”

"Huh? You, did you hear that? Monica's face was flushed instantly, her eyes were round, and her hand had already touched the whip on her waist, "It's so far away, I didn't shout loudly, how can you hear, how can you hear, it's okay, you're going to forget about it, I'll help you." ”

"Ahem, I'm sorry to bother you flirting, although we want to keep watching, but we really don't have time." The person who interrupted was Abby Aurora, while Monica and Babu were exchanging weak experiences with each other, Abby had already learned about the battle situation on the edge from Aurora's mouth, even with the psychological impact of the bell, Abby couldn't help but praise, "I really didn't expect that you didn't have to drag it to 'her' to solve it, and you could rely on human power to kill the leader-level mutant." I really can't figure it out, you only watched it once, how did you get to this point, no wonder 'she' was so interested in you from the beginning, I thought it was just 'her's special preference, but I didn't expect that I actually underestimated you. ”

"Actually, I don't know it myself," Babu said with a mysterious smile and shook his head, "maybe it was just something that I suddenly figured out." ”

"Cognitive changes? I see. Abby seemed to understand something, looked at Anna, then at Báb, and nodded, "Your limit depends on your cognition, and one day you will find that cognition is the most important thing in this world, the result of cognitive confusion...... Contamination variation can only be considered the best of the results. ”

Abby didn't continue, sighed and asked, "What are your plans now?" ”

"This is the first time you've asked us about our plans." Monica said with a smirk.

"You deserve it." Abby said solemnly, "Even if you want to leave immediately, I will fully cooperate with this kid to send someone to take out your things and take the opportunity to send you away." ”

Aurora was crouching beside Abby in a sad daze, when she heard someone mention her, looked up, made a growling gesture at Babu, and fell back into her memory.

Babu and Monica didn't answer right away, and after a moment of eye contact, Babu asked rhetorically, "What, the situation is already in chaos now?" Is Wesley's death true or false? If it's true, it's too coincidental, but if it's fake...... It doesn't seem to be necessary. ”

"What do you mean? You say the old thing is playing dead again? Aurora looked up from her stupor and looked at Abby pleadingly, "Is it true?" ”

Abby smiled bitterly: "I don't know, it stands to reason that I have checked his physical state, and it has indeed reached the limit, and he will soon be unable to support it, but it is indeed too coincidental to die now." The problem is that it is impossible for him to know the situation outside, so that he will not deliberately pretend to be dead or simply commit suicide in fear of fear that 'she' will come back to settle the score. ”

"Are you sure he doesn't know?" The Báb asked, "What if the thing of his blood sacrifice had informed him when he fled?" ”

"It's not that easy." Abby explained, "This is 'her' territory, and when there is no defense, the other party can occasionally infiltrate the will through the blood sacrifice and hide from 'her', but now that she is on guard, if Wesley dares to hold a blood sacrifice, then 'she' will know immediately." Moreover, it would be a good thing if the other party really informed Wesley, because then 'she' could easily follow the connection and catch up, instead of searching slowly like now, and the problem would have been solved long ago. ”

"Then there's only one possibility." Babu sighed and said, "It can only be said that this step has been part of his plan from the beginning." ”

"Hmm."

"Oh, no wonder." Seeing Abby's performance that he was not surprised at all, Babu suddenly understood, and said with a smile, "You saw the current situation before us, and because you didn't know what he wanted to do, you advised us to flee early?" ”

"Like you said, Wesley's death now, apart from the real coincidence, is that he intended to 'die' now from the beginning. I don't know exactly what Wesley was going to do, but judging by his past madness, I wouldn't be surprised by what he did. Abby smiled wryly and explained, "No matter how crazy he is, I have the ability to protect myself, but you ...... I don't want people to feel like we're kicking someone away when we're being favored. ”

"Can you protect yourself?" Babu raised his chin at Aurora, "What about them? ”

"They? You're overthinking. Abby smiled and shook her head, "The three of them are his children after all, and no matter how crazy he is, he won't be bad for his own children." Besides, there's no reason. No matter how much Wesley punished them over the years, he didn't really want them to die, otherwise he would have countless opportunities to kill them. Now this matter, in the final analysis, is a problem between him and the two non-humans, and it has nothing to do with the three children, and it makes no sense to attack them. ”

"When he tortured and killed innocent people, he never thought about the question of reason, and it didn't matter if it made sense to a madman. What's more, we feel that there is no reason, maybe it's just because we haven't found a reason yet, it's not really nothing. ”

"Huh?"

Abby stopped talking, and was bowing her head and groaning, when the continuous bell rang again.

This time it was a rather rapid three rings, followed by three more rings more than ten seconds apart. Hearing the bell, Abby was stunned, and Aurora jumped straight up.

"This is the bell that urgently summons the bloodlines of the three city lords into the castle to meet them." Abby grabbed Aurora, who was about to return to the city, and looked at Barbu Monica suspiciously.

Normal moves? Or is it really right? Although they didn't ask, this question grew bigger and bigger in the hearts of the three of them.
