Alice looked at Xia Lingge, her crystal eyes were full of mixed emotions, and she didn't know whether to agree or deny.

But Xia Lingge sensed her uneasiness, "Alice." She whispered, "I know you didn't mean it, and I don't blame you." ”

Alice's eyes lit up again, and she slowly stepped forward and stretched out her hand, like a coquettish cat, trying to let her hug her.

Xia Lingge shook her head: "Alice, we can't do this. ”

Alice raised her eyes helplessly.

Xia Lingge took Wentics' hand: "I already have a fiancée now, and there will be a wedding soon, and you ...... I have always treated me as a sister, and your dependence on me should be accepted. ”

One of the classic words of a scumbag - 'I treat you as a sister'.

No......

She remembered that the prince in the fairy tale was not so rough when choosing a concubine.

Looking at Alice, who was a little depressed, Xia Lingge remembered the ending that finally turned into a bubble, and sighed softly and stepped forward to hold the little mermaid with her head down: "Don't be sad, feelings are far from being as simple as you think, if you are homesick, go see the sea......"

next time

Just live carefree in the sea,

Stop being the little mermaid who sacrifices herself for love.

Alice's body trembled, and her eyes seemed to have a thousand words and a deep attachment.

Xia Lingge wiped away her tears and patted her head like a child.

"His Highness Kerster."

Another attendant came to her: "The King and Queen have prepared an engagement dinner for you and His Royal Highness Wenticus tonight. ”

"Okay, I got it."

Xia Lingge replied to the waiter, turned his eyes back to Alice and said, "You have a good rest, tonight's banquet...... You don't want to participate. ”

Alice opened her mouth, but she reached out and just swiped Xia Lingge's robe.

Night soon came.

Crystal chandeliers hang high above the hall, flowers adorn the hall, satin entwinkles, bright old carpets cover the floor, delicate and small cakes are placed on the table with tantalizing sweet aromas, and champagne and wine clink.

Elegant music filled the court, and richly dressed aristocrats mingled or danced in the rotunda.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

The king's deep voice attracted the attention of everyone present, the music stopped playing, and all eyes were on the supreme king.

The king cleared his voice: "Tonight is the engagement feast of my sons Kerst and Princess Wendix, and in my hundred years they will rule this kingdom together, and their happiness will be witnessed by you tonight!" ”

"Congratulations to His Highness Kerster!"

"Congratulations to His Highness Wenticus!"

Amid the cheers of the people, the handsome young man took the hand of the beautiful girl and walked down the stairs slowly.

She wore white gloves and bright leather boots, and the lion totem on her chest, which symbolized her status, set off her cold eyes with a sharp expression.

The girl she was holding was dressed in a royal blue gown, with a gorgeous amethyst wreath fixed by her long black hair, pale skin, and elegant manners.

The two of them walking together is really a beautiful painting.

The king looked at the distracted nobles with satisfaction and some pride, and he accepted the worship of Xia Lingge and Wentics, and then gave up his place to give Xia Lingge a speech.

"Thank you for coming to the engagement banquet, and I sincerely hope to receive your blessings." Xia Lingge said concisely and clearly.

There was another burst of cheer in the crowd.

Beautiful music played again, and they looked for each other's favorite dance partners to dance on stage.

However, no one noticed that outside the hall, in the dark corner, there was a figure clasping the marble stone wall, leaving a mark abruptly.

'Whoa-'!

The whole castle suddenly swayed, and the crystal lamps above their heads suddenly dimmed.

"What's going on......?"

"Why is there a sudden power outage? It can't be an earthquake......"

The guards hurried to find candles to bring light to the dark hall.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

Xia Lingge comforted Wentics, who was holding her hand tightly, and then said loudly to the others: "Don't panic, maybe it's the loud noise brought by the waves outside the city, I will send someone to send you home safely, don't worry." ”

Her words were like a tranquilizer, quieting the people who had been in a bit of a commotion.

Wendix's delicate voice was a little adoring: "His Highness Kerster......"

Xia Lingge didn't hear Wentics' sweet and small voice, all her attention was now on the loud sound, did the copy start to make it more difficult for her......

She suddenly thought of Alice.

She broke away from Wenticus's hand: "You wait for me here, don't run around." ”

Xia Lingge ran out of the hall in a few steps and ran towards Alice's room, the dark room was empty, and he could only hear the sound of the sea crashing against the reef outside the window.

Alice wasn't there.

Xia Lingge summoned the ruby dagger of the natal skill and shook it in his hand, and in an instant, he felt that the aura around him became much more refreshing.

It seems that after absorbing the red crystal, her skills have increased a lot.

"Your Highness! His Royal Highness Kerst ......"

The guards who came not far away paused in vain and took a step back in fear.

Xia Lingge retracted the dagger and turned to say, "What's wrong?" ”

The waiter's breath suddenly stopped and exhaled violently: "King and Queen...... Check it out! ”

Kings and queens?

Xia Lingge followed the waiter to the master bedroom on the fourth floor, the castle had not yet called, all the servants and maids were shuttling back and forth with candles, and the dim light of the size of a bean made their frightened faces even more hideous.

Xia Lingge swept past them, looking straight at the king and queen who were lying on the bed, the thick and bright red blood was falling down, the hole in their hearts was overflowing with blood, their eyes widened, their mouths opened, they only had time to panic but could not call for help.

"...... dead?"

Xia Lingge was puzzled, could it be that the king and queen were gamers? But the system doesn't prompt the player to die, but what are the two NPCs worth the monster attack?

"His Highness Kerster......"

The waiter behind her spoke hesitantly, as if he didn't know how to comfort her with her dead 'parents'.

Xia Lingge said softly: "I will bury them well." ”

But why?

Wrong......

Wait a minute!

If monsters can attack NPCs, it's Alice......

"Go find Miss Alice!"

"Yes!"

Xia Lingge took a candle and quickly patrolled the castle, she finally walked out of the palace and stepped into the garden, those warm roses now wrapped around the branches became dark and deep, quietly blooming like a soul wandering in the middle of the night.

Her gaze swept over the roses and fell to the fountain of flowers, where a petite figure trembled and retreated.
