Section 97

The results of the trip to the South were mixed.

If you only look at the purpose, knowing the Skeleton King, getting to know the princess, and mingling with the nobles of Huadu will undoubtedly achieve the original goal perfectly. But the defeat on the Scarlet Princess's side wiped out all joy......

It's the equivalent of completing a well-paid commission, but losing the loot you collected.

There is another point of confusion...... Princess Crimson won't tempt Annan for no reason.

Who told her?

"It's too late to chase after ......," Adtilia persuaded again.

"She's still angry, after a while."

"You don't understand women......" said Editia.

"You don't understand vampires......" Annan replied.

There are also races like dragons, elves, goblins......

Time fades paranoia, and that's how he used it to make Elimoas less hungry for money.

The Scarlet Princess left in a hurry with the false princess, but Count Turner was forgotten in the dungeon. Annan, who had heard the news, ran to the dungeon and looked at him with a frown.

"I don't understand how you did it."

Count Turner looked up, he looked fine, not eating for a few days was nothing to a vampire earl.

"To do what?"

"Let Princess Crimson know."

"The answer ......," said Count Turner, with a look of bewilderment.

It seems that he doesn't know either.

Annan went to visit the Scarlet Witch again and told her, "I'm going to go on a long journey, but it won't be long." ”

"It's boring, it's boring, it's rude, let me out!" The Scarlet Witch's mental condition is getting worse and worse.

"You agreed to my invitation?"

The Scarlet Witch tried to show weakness, but it did not match her wild face and complexion: "Aren't we companions? ”

"Not since the day you betrayed me."

As the words fell, Annan suddenly seemed to see Princess Crimson standing aside, crossed her waist and accused him: "Not since the day you deceived me." ”

He shook his head, shook off the inexplicable figure in his mind, and ignored the crying Scarlet Witch and returned to the surface.

Annan first went to the city lord to resign.

"Something happened, we're going to leave ...... first"

"Is it so urgent?"

The city lord frowned, he was about to invite Princess Crimson to tomorrow night's banquet, and the invitations were ready......

"I don't know the specifics." Annan said casually.

"Okay...... Huadu is your second home. "The city lord didn't forcibly keep it anymore, and this time his political achievements are still bright enough.

It should be the third hometown, and the second home is Srtovis. Annan thought and said goodbye to the city lord, and by the way, let them send someone to contact the steel duo collar, but the news here should have passed some way.

I hope that the old lords and the junior lords who learn the news will not be frightened.

Annan deliberately took Count Turner out of the dungeon so that many people could see him leaving with the vampire - which should prevent the Scarlet Princess from sending someone to rob the prison again.

However, as soon as he returned to the warehouse, Annan opened the portal and threw Count Turner to Liberty City.

Taking it to the moorland is too conspicuous, and what's the difference between having a vampire by your side and a caravan camping in front of a dragon's lair?

In the attic, the maid Abby is packing.

Annan asked Ittilia to go back to Liberty City first. She wanted to stay in Huadu to handle business, after all, the celebration was still going on, and there was the shadow of Rikaner lingering, and he was not at ease.

The princess has not been able to leave Annan yetβ€”she is still like a toddler, and if she is away for too long, she will fall into an instinctive reaction similar to anxiety and panic.

The same goes for the branches of the otherworldly trees. It was still withered, but Editilia said it loved the sun.

"How do you know?"

"After I put it in the sun, it started to grow slowly."

Itilia showed Annan a few bulging branches of the branches, which were difficult to spot if she didn't look at them all day...... For example, Annan didn't see any change from when he first got it from the merchants.

"I shouldn't see much sunlight in the sawa, but I can try some weird things as fertilizer." Annan picked up the flower pot.

Klein would follow him, and Lemon. And because he couldn't trust the goblin leader, Annan took Dorai with him again.

Dorai, who has been with Annan for three years, is deeply influenced by the fact that he acts like a human in every move, especially the black dress with a swallowtail. The goblin leader looked at it as if he wanted to exercise his "king" right to snatch his clothes back.

But it also knew who had the final say here, and begged Annan to give it one.

"Look at your performance."

Late at night, the carriage carrying Annan and them left Huadu, and it was like fleeing in a hurry.

When choosing a fork in the road, Annan hesitated a little, but still bypassed the Crimson Castle and took about three days to reach Skeletron's territory.

The members of the Prison of Weirdness seem to be fine, and Skeletron at least doesn't treat them badly with "food".

Annan asked for some weird fragments, dug up the leaves of the World Tree, sprinkled "fertilizer" into the pot, and gave it to Skeletron to look after.

As they were about to go, the puppet lady came up.

"I'm with you." But Annan could tell she was trying to protect herself by repaying her people for recovering it, she said.

They set out south, hurried day and night, and arrived in a town with smoke rising in the early morning of a drizzling day.

It was close to the moor, and Annan was looking for a familiar local, and a ranger with a wooden bow in the town's tavern jumped into view.

"I'm Annan, a warlock."

Annan's introduction did not receive much response, and the town was not so well informed.

In its roughness, it resembles Mr. Fast's Ranger sweeping Klein, the Princess, and the Puppet Lady.

"Guess what, where are you going?"

"The moorland to the south."

"Exactly? The rancid moor is the size of a province. ”

"The habitat of the goblins."

"What are you looking for those hateful guys? Hunting their skins? ”

This angered the goblin leader and rushed out of the carriage to swear at the goblin he didn't understand, but Dorai didn't react.

As the smartest goblin, it never arms itself with anger.

The ranger didn't expect that there was a goblin hidden in the carriage, and he didn't understand what it had to do with his employer, so he had to explain: "I don't mean that goblins are treacherous, but I didn't say that goblins are trustworthy, there is always a reason why they are so miserable." ”

Goblins have a grudge against elves, and they have a grudge against the dwarves - few races have this honor.

"I'll take your reminder to me."

Annan thought for a moment and asked, "Goblin's ...... Is leather valuable? ”

This kind of topic should be similar to a horror story to the ears of Dorai and the goblin boss.

"It's worthless, it's just that the mercenary hall is collecting ......" Ranger raised an eyebrow at him, "so do you want to hire it?" No one in town knows more about rancid moors than I do. ”

"Of course."

Soon, Annan hired the local ranger for the original price of 15 silver coins, which was said to be 10 silver coins a day.

The rolling wheels drove out of town, startling a flock of crows in the treetops.
