"Will it betray us?"

Blom had always been wary of Jerry.

He's not targeting Jerry, he's wary of all nezumi, including Broken Tooth......

This emotion is also the mind of most human beings.

Because of thousands of years of hatred, it's easy for them to spread their emotions to an entire group - not to mention that nezumi aren't a good thing in themselves.

Annan replied, "Most of the dark elves have never seen the light of day in their lives, because it is a curse, it is a shame, it is the existence they hate the most. But there is a dark elf born in the darkness, but yearns for the light. One day, she unexpectedly stepped out of the darkness and stood in the sunlight. She felt a good ...... that she didn't have in the old days."

Blom said as if he didn't understand the metaphor, "Are you talking about Dela?" ”

Annan shrugged: "I made it up." ”

Jerry had disappeared into the mountains with the gray-haired rat priest on his back, and Annan got down to business: "We must tell the empire about the existence of a nezumi nest in the northern mountains. ”

"The Empire already knows."

"That's good."

After saying that, Annan suddenly realized that Blom's voice was wrong. He turned his head to see Blom looking terrified, and next to him stood the silhouette of a black cloak with a bone sword badge on his chest.

"He's an enemy?" Annan quietly grasped the amulet.

"It's ......," Blom said stiffly.

The black cloak glanced at Blom disapprovingly, "I am the Inquisitor of the Imperial Bone Blade Legion. ”

"What's that?"

Annan relaxed a little. Imperial Legion ...... Then there should be nothing to worry about.

Did he suddenly appear because of the Nezumi Hive, or did he make a deal with the Nezumi himself......

"The Edge of Bones, also known as the Eye of Bones, is the eye of the Tatooon Empire to monitor the territory of the Empire."

Annan gushes out ominous, and it seems that it is most likely not because of the former......

"I have a question."

The inquisitor spoke, and was suddenly preempted by Annan and said: "You can't blame me, I didn't want to do this, but your people say that the only criterion for judging combat exploits is rat ears, and there is no limit to the way ......."

"It doesn't matter...... Inquisitor shook his head and said with a smirk, "What does Rogeb mean?" ”

Before he could be surprised, Annan was stunned by the information revealed by the judge.

"Logb" deliberately deceived the leaders of the coalition when he bewitched them, and the inquisitor knew, does that mean that everything he did had been seen by the empire for a long time......?

On the bright side, maybe Bone Edge was just staring at the other coalition forces and happened to hear his own words.

"That...... Mr. Executive, what do you mean when you say, 'It doesn't matter'? Annan asked tentatively.

"You've already said that the only criterion is rat ears."

Annan breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that whether it is to buy rat ears or trade with rat people, it is nothing to the empire.

"That's because you're not from the Empire."

As if to gain insight into Annan's thoughts, the executive sneered, "Having private contact with the rat people is a serious betrayal of the empire, and you will be sent directly to the Inquisition." ”

"Loyalty is not absolute, is it absolute disloyalty?"

"That's a good point, but I like your quote more, 'Empire is not loved, but feared.'"

Annan's breath faltered, and he suddenly understood this sentence more deeply.

The executive left. He disappeared as suddenly as if he had appeared out of nowhere, and Annan didn't even notice the magic fluctuations.

"Is he gone?" He asked Blom.

"I don't know...... Blom shook his head. But he was deliberately warning us. ”

"What warning?"

Blom looked at the clear stupidity in the black eyes of his city lord, and did not show any undue sarcasm: "Let's be careful not to cross the line, otherwise he will completely let us send back the repeated news, and there is no need to be reminded." ”

"That's right."

Annan was a little aggrieved, and after knowing that there was a ubiquitous "Bone Eye" behind him, he couldn't even lose his temper.

Taking a deep breath and exhaling turbidity, Annan said lightly: "This is a good thing. The empire had a good relationship with us, but now we still have the Bone Edge to endorse us, so we don't even bother to find an excuse, just bring the mouse ears back. ”

Part truth, part falsehood.

The truth is that Annan does not intend to betray the empire, he has nothing to fear. Falsehood is a move that is always uncomfortable to be stared at.

"By the way, when does the Hunt Project ranking start?"

Blom looked up, and the sun was about to disappear over the woodland horizon.

"It should be now."

Annan was anxious. Don't arrange everything, but it's a step too late.

He hurriedly opened the portal of the Great Wall of the North and asked Blom to go back first: "You tell the Imperial officials to ask them to wait for me. ”

Blom returned to the Great Wall of the North and rushed to the Black Watch station, just in time to see the Empire officials who had come earlier announcing the tenth of the hunt.

"Windmill Duchy, reward fifty sets of Imperial steel armor."

The military minister of the Principality of Windmills couldn't help but rejoice.

Blom hurried over, passed through the doorman's inspection, and broke in to announce the ceremony.

"Second place—"

"Please wait!" Blom interrupted the young official, touched his waist, and suddenly remembered that the magic bag was in Annan, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "The city lord of Annan said that he got another batch of rat ears and is on his way back, I hope you can wait for him to come." ”

The young officer couldn't decide, and looked at the Black Watch Captain beside him.

"Then wait for our little warlock." The Legion Commander joked nonchalantly, "I hope he surprises me." ”

The leaders of the forces who were honestly standing on the side looked envious.

Let the Imperial Envoy and Legion Commander wait for him...... They also want this kind of treatment, but not everyone has the ability to make newspapers and cement and please their ancestors.

So Annan is really not called Annan Montreal?

……

As night fell, Jerry stopped in front of a stream with the Grey-haired Rat Priest on his back.

Wherever the rat tide passed, there was no life. But the continuous rain allowed the stream to clean itself again.

"Lord Greyhair, do you want to clean it up?"

"Okay."

Jerry let go of the weak Grey-Haired Rat Priest, and it saw Jerry's tall figure in the faint moonlight.

"I remember, you're the Stoun Rat from the Rat team."

The Grey-Haired Rat Priest was a head shorter than Annan's thing, but it stood in front of Jerry as if looking down on it, "How did you get me out?" ”

"Human things need rat ears, and I pretend to be the champion rat captain and trick human things into giving them rat ears...... this is the explanation that Jerry and Annan have come up with for a long time.

"You've done a great job...... "Grey-haired Rat Priest turned and walked towards the stream, "When you get back, you'll be Captain Champion Rat." ”

As the silver moon fell, Jerry watched as the grey-haired rat priest walked into the stream, wetting the gray hair and outlining a wonderful outline.

The desire to reproduce, which had been silent for several years, suddenly became ready to stir at this moment.
