Chapter 56: Jodeo's Ambition
Looking at Jonathan, who was lying on the ground in front of him, Adam first let Avril hide in the pool and go ashore by himself.
He took out a pen and paper and drew a shield for himself, then walked towards Jonathan with a quill in his backhand.
Adam approached him and found him covered in scars and his majestic armor in tatters.
Adam called out his name and didn't get a response, but when he tried to probe the eldest prince's snort, the other man suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed Adam's arm.
He opened his mouth but couldn't make any sound, and the horrible wound on his neck was the reason, and although the wound was healing, it would crack open again when it healed to a certain extent.
Seemingly aware that his time was running out, Jonathan unfastened his only intact arm guard and handed it to Adam.
Seeing Adam take the armguard, he used his last strength to slowly express what he was about to say in the common language: "Jodio wants to rebel and protect the king." ”
After seeing Adam nod, he closed his eyes reluctantly.
As his life passed, the wounds on his body stopped healing, causing the wound on his neck to completely crack open, and his head slowly rolled to Adam's feet.
"This Atlantis' technology is indeed powerful, and it can survive for so long with this mortal injury, rest in peace, I will go to Atlantis."
Originally, Adam also took a fancy to their non-magical technology, which gave him an excuse to go.
After searching Jonathan's body, Adam found nothing resembling storage, only a strangely shaped ring on his hand.
After removing the ring, Adam drew a shovel and buried Jonathan in the cave.
After all this was done, he asked Avril to come back, and after telling her everything, Avril covered her mouth in surprise.
Adam lit a bonfire, then took out the corpses of the monsters he had collected along the way and began to dispose of them.
Seeing him like this, although Avril was anxious, she still didn't speak, and quietly watched Adam do things.
After cleaning up the corpses, and the roasted meat was finished, he took a piece and handed it to Avril, and said to her, "I thought you were going to urge me to do something." ”
Avril took Adam's food, it was the first time she had seen this kind of practice, and although there were delicacies from the mountains and seas in the palace, it was the first time she had eaten such a barbecue.
The right heat and the faint taste of smoke made Avril uncontrollably eaten, and seeing her, Adam did not urge her to answer his own question, but handed her his own piece as well.
"I didn't expect my husband to be so good at cooking." Avril complimented Adam after taking the last bite, and the appearance of the meal after that changed to Sven.
After eating and drinking enough, Avril replied, "Since your husband has decided to do this, you have a reason, I just need to follow you." ”
Adam still began to get used to the title of husband, he continued to roast some beast meat and then said to Avril: "Actually, it is useless for us to be in a hurry, after all, the other party has a warship as a means of movement, and we will not reach Alcotlantis before the other party in any case." ”
"And I don't think Jodio will immediately start a rebellion, if he doesn't have to take Ariel, so we don't have to hurry."
After listening to Adam's analysis, Avril admired the young man in front of her even more, and at the same time, a feeling of happiness swelled in her heart.
"Husband, I have never been so happy in my twenty years in the kingdom as these days, thank you."
With that, she leaned over and left a kiss mark on Adam's face.
Adam didn't dodge, he was also attracted by the tenderness of the other party, feeling the temperature of Avril's lips, and his thoughts were quietly changing.
Avril then joins Adam's work, but the merfolk's natural resistance to fire slows him down.
However, Adam did not blame her, but guided Avril's movements more gently, which also made the two closer.
After a busy time, the two were ready to rest, and Avril went back to the water to soak her body and came to Adam, who was already lying down, and gently put her arm on Adam's body and fell asleep.
When the two woke up, Adam saw that he was almost ready, although Avril had never been to Atlantis City, but he had heard about it for a long time, so he naturally knew where it was, so the two started their trip to Atlantis.
At this time, Laura, who was in the academy, had just woken up, and she looked at herself wrapped in rice dumplings and didn't know what was going on.
It wasn't until she remembered that she had lost consciousness during the battle with Zeus' clone that she realized that she must have been injured and taken to the infirmary.
The memories of the battle are blurred, but the thrill of being electrocuted is still vivid.
What interrupted her sweet memories were the two principals who rushed to the infirmary.
Seeing that the other party was menacing, Laura thought that she was worried that she was too seriously injured, but as soon as the two spoke, she felt that she was very wrong.
"You're a succubus?" There was a hint of coldness in Bo Saisi's voice.
"Uh, a half-succubus to be exact." Laura didn't dare to joke either.
Hearing this answer, the two of them were visibly relieved, Zeus inquired about her physical condition with concern, and told her that the next trial would change the project.
Laura, who heard the news, was reluctant, she quickly said that she was fine, the blood of the succubus made her body stronger than ordinary people, after all, the succubus clan must have a strong enough body to exercise more.
Zeus hastened to explain to her what happened that day, and then the three principals had to choose to change the trial in order to avoid the same thing happening again.
Laura couldn't hold on anymore after knowing that she had caused such a big riot, so she could only reluctantly agree.
The two principals told her to wait until she recovered before informing her of the contents of the trial, and then left the infirmary.
"Zeus, what do you think?"
"I think what she said should be true, after all, she did use holy light magic that day, and it was also consistent with Cage's prediction, but I didn't expect that the trial we arranged was supposed to allow her to learn some skills from me to manipulate light attributes, but it turned out to make her awaken the succubus's spell."
After thinking for a while, Bo Saixi said: "Otherwise, she will still be guided by you, but the location of the trial will be changed to Shadow Island, let her contact the demons who are imprisoned there, and we can determine which side she is on." ”
"It's fine." Zeus agreed: "After all, we can't be immune to the demons when they attack again. ”
The two decided to go their separate ways, but Zeus called out to Poseisi.
"By the way, who are we going to visit the invitation from Atlantis? After all, it's the prince's wedding, and we can't help but give each other a face. ”
"Then I'll go, that guy Hades is all thinking about that woman now, you still have to look at Laura, that Coco is just studying at the moment, and it seems that I am the most suitable for now."
Zeus agreed and left, but Posesi pondered as if he had forgotten something.
"There have been too many things recently, the mountains and rains are coming, and the wind is full of buildings, I don't know how long this peace can last."
Shaking his head, Bo Saixi also turned into a puddle of clear water and disappeared in front of the infirmary.
