The construction team consisted of rat men.

But it's not the Crying Peninsula natives, but the rats from Milan Sil Blanc. A more advanced nezumi with most of Melina's height, a somewhat round face, and a full hamster feel.

Melina felt a sense of time confusion as she watched the ratmen in hard hats working on the side of the road, and some banshees were clearing the way ahead.

That's how she, Sonia, and Maria had been working like this in the pure white woodland for months.

That road is already carrying a considerable burden of cargo transportation at the moment.

At the same time, the prosperity of the Weeping Peninsula has also begun to increase imperceptibly.

Melina accompanied Georgia on a tour of the island, and whatever happened on this not very large island could quickly have a certain effect. It also gives them control over the island's resources.

There are also clockwork cats in the construction team.

Melina saw Sonia counting with Clockwork.

Elizabeth walked slowly, crouching on the ground from time to time to look at the turned dirt, and occasionally picking the fruit from the road and putting it in her mouth. If it was in a previous life, Melina would have unceremoniously said, 'Where did the fairy come from'.

But in this life, I am also a fairy!

Melina walked over.

Sonia looked at her:

"Xiaomei, Kara, are you two done? So fast? ”

"It's basically done, what's wrong with you guys?"

Melina replied, then asked:

"I've heard you've had some misunderstandings with the clockwork cats."

"Meow, no misunderstanding!" Clockwork was in a hurry, ran to her knees, and poked her ankles hard with the cat's tail.

Melina looked down, it was a clockwork cat.

Clockwork cats are generally as large as Melina's belly button, and higher up to their chest. This large dango creature shrinks by nearly half in size when curled up, and many people are scared when they first go to work with a clockwork cat. 'This cat is so big'.

Clockwork Cat has always been nice to Melina.

Melina also reciprocated by investing her emotions into them.

She half-crouched down and picked up the clockwork cat.

She and Sonia glanced at each other, and the other person's eyes were probably 'Hurry up and coax these cats, sisters can't stand it', and it's really hard for this guy to stand it again. Melina thought for a moment and said:

"You're a little fatter than last time?"

Sure enough, the clockwork cat was coaxed and meowed happily.

Melina got down to business:

"Why did Suoso mess with you?"

"Meow! She withholds information! "Clockwork Cat is a little fried again," doing our business, the most afraid is that the customer hides information, we went to the front to explore the way, meow, if we dig like this!" Meow! Dig like this......"

Her beard twitched wildly, with a look of fear.

"Yes, it's going to mess with that super hard dragon, meow!"

Melina got it.

It's the tyrant dragon.

It is also one of the goals of the team.

Since the dragon was too powerful and there was no trace of it yet, it had to be handed over to Sonia to keep an eye on, but I didn't expect the news to be there now, although at the cost of Sonia's reputation among the clockwork cats had decreased.

It is estimated that Sonia used the ability of clockwork cats to find the leylines, and deliberately sent these cats to explore the front along several construction roads.

This kind of thing is common, so Clockwork Cat will not suspect it.

The cats then followed the route and soon caught something strange underneath with a sense of sharpness greater than that of the banshee. Well, the curiosity of the cats is also part of Sonia's plan, and the cats are really curious to dig down to see what treasures are in the land.

As soon as they dug down, the clockwork cats were so frightened that their hearts were about to jump out.

Tyrant Dragon, a level 14 red dragon species, has an extremely short temper.

And there are rumors.

This dragon is the Teddy of Dragons, and he goes crazy when he sees anything. The clockwork cats were not interested in being cat balls, so they came back angrily and asked Sonia for an explanation.

After Melina figured it out, although she was thinking 'Well done Sonia', she still gave Clockwork Cat face on the surface and sprayed Sonia fiercely.

Of course.

Although there is a performance component in it.

But think about what Sonia's dog does every day, and how she secretly bought her own horse ticket when she was running a horse or something...... Melina was so angry that she couldn't hold her head up with 90% true feelings, and she couldn't raise her head to Sonia.

Kara, who was watching from the sidelines, was surprised.

She grabbed Elizabeth and said:

"I didn't even know that Xiaomei was so strict!"

Elizabeth, who was being a fairy, glanced at her lightly:

"Haven't you ever been impulsive?"

She didn't say the second half of the sentence because she knew Kara knew exactly what she was talking about.

'Didn't you have the urge to squirt Sonia?' ’

Sonia's ability to work is unquestionable, and her attitude to work is not in doubt.

But this man just undersquirts.

She has always been able to complicate a normal commission.

Moreover...

Elizabeth could clearly sense that Sonia was on guard.

Guarding against everyone.

She had money, and she continued to buy a lot of occult ritual items, but Sonia would never say what she was studying. She was guarding against herself and Melina.

The woman seemed to have concluded something.

But...

Elizabeth didn't quite understand one thing.

If you want to defend yourself, it's because she's strong and uncertain, which is understandable. Banshees are always on the lookout for companions who look like they're going crazy.

Can you guard against Melina?

Why?

Melina is so good.

Elizabeth remembered that when she and Melina met, they had the idea of 'killing each other' in that moment, like a disease, like a curse, like the fear that burst out when they saw their own kind after standing on the top of a mountain for too long.

But compared to herself, Melina is definitely the better one.

Elizabeth was convinced of this.

Immensely convinced.

Because of this, there is a little subtle resentment towards Sonia. But she can't hate it, Sonia is always hippie and smiling, stalking, and she is not guarding against the current 'Melina', but Melina who accidentally fell into the darkness.

Elizabeth thought, maybe this is also a necessity, no matter how kind people are, there is a need to be guarded against? If you have this kind of power.

…

…

Sonia remembered for a week.

That version of Melina never reprimanded others like she does now, let alone showed a lively demeanor.

That Melina was silent, and the ice on her face turned into a cold smile.

The reason she endured her pain was not good, but hate.

Hate is stronger than love.

“… Did you hear me clearly? ”

She was stunned for a moment, and saw the petite black gauze girl in front of her staring at her, with the anger of 'you actually wandering' in her golden eyes. She hurriedly smiled and begged for mercy:

"Oh, Xiaomei, I must have heard it clearly."

"Tell me what I said, then?" Melina looked suspicious.

Sonia's smile grimaced.

Melina was brought along, also with a serious expression waiting for her to answer.

In the next second, Sonia turned around and ran:

"I'm sorry, I wasn't listening!"

"Meow!"

The clockwork cat is thrown as a cannonball, hitting Sonia in the waist.
