13 Mink Street

"Okay, it's done, as I said, it doesn't hurt at all, right?"

The captain clapped his hands and looked at Karen who was sitting leaning against the sarcophagus.

There were several spots of blood oozing red on Karen's clothes, and there were many burn marks on his skin. In addition, various minor abrasions were arranged, and the captain even broke two of Karen's ribs.

In terms of "falsification", the captain is definitely pursuing.

"Captain, you can't use your pain standard to substitute me."

"Don't worry, these injuries are easy to heal. Even those two broken ribs will not affect your activities for the time being. When the people of Dark Moon Island save you, they will definitely give you the best healing Potions and spells guarantee that you won't even leave a scar."

"Is that all, is it over?"

"Well, it's over, and you can't make it too mutilated, after all, your body will be requisitioned by me in the 'story', and it's impossible for me to make your body too mutilated.

I have already arranged the rest, the position of the statue, the sarcophagus, the burned corpses, the strong residual light breath, the traces of fighting outside, including dragging you into the cave and dragging blood on the ground here, all are fine .

Well, you just sit here and wait for someone to come and save you.

Oh, by the way, there is another thing I want to remind you, Miss Ophelia may help you conceal the reason why you appeared in that villa, I guess she may say that she came here with you on an appointment, Then I met me who sneaked into the other garden, I activated the formation, and the two of you followed my formation to come here.

In short, she should try to erase the secrets you keep from her as much as possible.

You never know how far a woman will go for you when she really loves you.

Therefore, when you explain the situation after being rescued, you'd better be careful. "

"I see."

The captain nodded, looked at Karen, smiled disdainfully, and said, "Heh, what a scumbag who plays with other people's feelings."

"..." Karen.

"Hehehe." The captain let out a long series of laughter again, "I'm leaving, you should pay attention to safety, don't be eaten by the python, you still have the ability to move and have a certain fighting ability."

The captain came out of the cave.

Karen continued to lean on the side of the sarcophagus, feeling a little helpless in his heart. If the captain hadn't done this on his own initiative, he would probably be lying on the soft bed in the hotel room by now;

But now, they have to continue to wait in the cold sarcophagus.

At the same time, Karen silently remembered in his heart that next time he went out with the captain, he must take precautions in advance and not let the captain continue to follow his temper.

The waiting time is destined to be long, because Ophelia has to return to Dark Moon Island first, and then bring people over from Dark Moon Island. As for the teleportation circle in the master bedroom of the other garden, it needs a specific activation method, similar to Because of a secret key, the people of Dark Moon Island may not be able to decipher it, so there is no way to send it from the formation.

Karen wanted to lie down and sleep for a while, but although the injuries on his body were not serious, they were very rich by the captain, which made Karen unable to sleep.

Turning his head, he looked at the sarcophagus next to him, and remembered that the captain had called "Jenferni" when he was briefly lost. This is her sarcophagus.

The sarcophagus lid was pushed back more than half before the captain left. For "him", it was the most normal reaction for "him" to requisition a new body while looking at his wife's corpse.

Karen came to the sarcophagus again. The last time he was standing, this time he was squatting. The two viewing angles were at different heights, but Karen discovered the peculiarity of the back of the sarcophagus lid.

He immediately lowered his body even more, even put his head inside the sarcophagus, and rubbed his fingertips lightly. Inspired by the blood of the fire attribute of the ancestor Allen, he shot out a small ball of flames like a lamp flame, illuminating the inside.

Under the sarcophagus lid, there are bloody marks, scratches.

This means that the woman was "buried" in the sarcophagus while she was alive, and she struggled, but ultimately to no avail.

Karen reached out and picked up one of the woman's arms, wanting to take a closer look at the woman's hand. Because it had become a mummy, the woman's hand had shrunk and withered long ago, but she could see traces of the nails being turned over, and there were a few There are no nails on the fingers, which seem to have fallen off a long time ago.

These are the details that Karen didn't notice when he pushed the sarcophagus away for the first time.

Turning his head, he looked at the stone sculpture of Bernard over there. He was smiling, as if he was looking at Karen.

Suddenly, Karen realized that the reason why Bernard set up stone sculptures here might not be to create an atmosphere that the two sides are still good friends. He specially brought "Miss Pall" to appreciate his works.

This is a show off.

This is why the smile on the stone sculpture and the gesture of the other hand on the stone sculpture give people an uncomfortable feeling when they first see it, because this scene seems to say:

"Look, look, how stupid they are, hahaha."

It's hard to imagine what kind of anger the "he" in the captain's body felt after returning to his hometown and seeing this scene, but even so, the captain still controlled his loss.

Fortunately, Pu'er was not a simple character back then. She was once hailed as a family genius, possessed absolute self-confidence and the ability to protect herself, which allowed her to clearly express her impatience in front of Bernard's pursuit.

If it were another woman, facing such a man, what would happen...

Perhaps, what Bernard really likes is not Pu'er, but what he really likes is the feeling of unrequited love after Pu'er rejected him. It's this kind of happiness.

If he had really pursued Pu'er in the first place, there might not have been such a "moving" love story handed down.

A woman's sixth sense is indeed powerful.

Karen believed that Pu'er at home didn't know Bernard had this side at all, otherwise it would have told him already, instead of simply saying that he was annoying over and over again.

Now, I somewhat support Pu'er's plan, that is, after its strength recovers, I will personally come to Dark Moon Island to raise Bernard's grave.

The most pitiful thing is the captain. He has experienced the grief of his beloved leaving him twice.

But the captain's psychological quality is very strong. A man who can tear off his own face to fight cognitively, and successfully dominates and maintains himself, his perseverance is simply admirable.

So, this is probably why the captain insisted on leaving something for himself.

He controlled the grief and anger, and woke up from the short-term loss, but he could not be completely unaffected, but his influence was that because he had experienced the grief of losing his beloved twice, he subconsciously wanted to be in Karen. Find a fix here.

He ignored Karen's opinion and forcibly acted in Karen's play, staged this life-saving act, and helped Karen leave an indelible mark on Ophelia's heart;

the reason is,

He was very bitter and couldn't wait to eat a candy.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Karen's thoughts spread little by little. In the end, he was finally exhausted.

Karen lay down in the empty sarcophagus next to him. This was not the first time he had been lying in a coffin, nor was it the first time he felt comfortable lying in a coffin.

Normal people have a feeling of taboo towards coffins, but this is not the case. The environment of coffins can give you a sense of security both psychologically and physically.

In this narrow space, you are the master, no one will disturb you, and you are finally isolated from the world. You can finally enjoy the peace.

Karen closed his eyes. He fell asleep, but he didn't fall asleep, because a part of his consciousness had been keeping an eye on the outside.

Every hound has this ability, which is commonly known as "sleeping with one eye open".

I don't know how long it took, but I only know that the sky outside is about to turn white, and there is movement from the entrance of the cave, and a group of people are walking towards here.

Karen still closed his eyes, but he was already calling for his symbiosis in his heart.

When the coffin was covered, the magic circle left by the captain started to rotate, forming a white light. After the white light appeared, the magic circle dissipated.

The captain always pays attention to details in his work, and will not leave any mistakes or omissions.

The white light was drawn by Karen, and a figure was condensed, which was Pu'er's figure and Pu'er's human body.

She was lying on the coffin lid, as if she was sleeping with Karen, everything was so natural, because this is indeed Pu'er's daily life now.

A group of people who had just entered the cave outside made sounds of surprise and seemed very excited.

Karen heard Ophelia's voice: "Karen..."

alright,

It's time to sleep.

…

Pu'er, who was far away on the big bed in the master bedroom in the backyard of a funeral home in Wayne, suddenly opened his eyes at this moment. He sat up, rubbed his eyes with his cat's paw, looked at the slightly bright sky outside the window, and said doubtfully:

"As soon as Karen left, I lost sleep, meow?"

…

Karen didn't know exactly how long he had slept. He had forgotten the time and woke up many times in the middle. Each time he was surrounded by different people, but soon Karen closed his eyes again.

Among them, there was a short waking up with a deep memory. It was Ophelia who personally changed the topical medicine on the wound for herself. As a result, this woman who was only good at holding a sword was serving others for the first time. He accidentally tore open Karen's wound, causing Karen's body to twitch in pain.

Next, he could feel that he had been taken a lot of potions, and he could also feel that his body was wrapped warmly by healing techniques.

Finally, when he was fully asleep, Karen slowly opened his eyes.

Ophelia did not sit on her bed and fall asleep with care of her weariness;

Opposite my bed, there was a chair with a person sitting on it. This person had a stern face and fair skin, with his hands resting on the armrests of the chair.

To a certain extent, he looks a little like the statue of Bernard in the cave, not the specific appearance, but the temperament.

Although he hid behind the curtain that time and didn't see his real face, Karen had a premonition that he was Ophelia's uncle who had voluntarily given up the position of patriarch to his brother... General Tuffman.

As an island power, Dark Moon Island's geographical structure determined that its most powerful force must be its navy, and he was the leader of this force.

Seeing that Karen woke up, Tuffman did not have any major accidents. Instead, he silently picked up the cut cigar from the tea table in front of him, lit it with a lamp, picked it up, took a puff, and exhaled the smoke. It's the patient's ward.

Karen slowly sat up with her hands on the bed board.

I have always heard that the treatment effect of the church hospital is amazing. The treatment I enjoyed this time must be more advanced than that of the church hospital. The wounds on the body have scabbed, and you can feel that they are recovering, because the whole body All felt itchy.

He didn't take the initiative to get close, and didn't take the initiative to speak. Karen just sat like this, with his shoulders slightly lowered.

Tuffman continued to smoke his cigar slowly, not hiding the fact that he was watching Karen.

Karen maintained an expression, lying down for a long time, and sat up quite comfortably.

The captain only reminded himself that Ophelia might help him conceal the fact that he appeared behind the curtain in the other garden, and the captain didn't say anything about the rest.

Because the next thing Karen needs to do is to play the image of a genius clan who can be blessed and selected by the "ancestor";

As for how to play a genius well, the captain felt that it was not difficult for Karen, just act in his true colors.

Finally, Tuffman put the cigar on the edge of the ashtray, adjusted his sitting posture, and said:

"I'm Tuffman, Ophelia's uncle, the commander of the fleet off the coast of Darkmoon Island."

From this sentence, Karen knew that Ophelia had concealed it for herself, otherwise there was no need for Tuffman to deliberately introduce herself like this.

"Hello, General."

Tuffman stood up, walked in front of Karen, looked down at Karen, and said:

"Dark Moon has guided us to the arrival of a genius. Although he was once alone abroad, in the end, he returned to Dark Moon's embrace."

Karen didn't speak, just looked at him silently.

Tuffman smiled and said, "Karen, do you believe in fairy tales?"

Karen still didn't speak.

"Most of the fairy tales that can be handed down are false, but they are so false that people are fascinated.

Just like... you. "

Karen remained silent.

"I believe in the dark moon, and I also admire the ancestor Bernard, but I'm sorry, I've been wandering in the sea for a long time, I'm used to seeing the dirty and despicable, and I've witnessed too much despair and numbness.

I think that faith is the ray of comfort that I have been pursuing hard.

But I really never thought that Faith could deliver gifts to our door in such a direct way, and even rang the doorbell intimately.

What do you think? "

Karen remained silent.

"Is there anything you want to say to me, Karen?"

Karen shook his head and finally said, "I don't know what to say to you."

"You can tell me the reason, for example, why you don't want to use honorifics for me."

"Why should I address you with an honorific title?"

"Because if you regard yourself as the same generation as Ophelia, then I am your elder."

"But, general, do you treat me like a junior?"

"not yet."

"Then why should I treat you as an elder?"

"Well, that's right."

"If you start from your status, you believe in the Dark Moon, and I believe in the God of Order. Although the Cult of Order and Dark Moon Island are currently in a period of cooperation, I don't disdain your beliefs, and I also disdain your identity. .

So, why should I use honorifics for you? "

"Is this what you mean?"

"Yes, from the bottom of my heart, from the very beginning, I have never been happy about the dark moon blood flowing through my body. Oh, the only thing I am happy about is that I can get some support from Dark Moon Island. But this is also based on our mutual use. I am not taking your coupons for nothing, and you also look forward to getting investment feedback from me in the future.

It was you who took the initiative to find me to support me, not you who I took the initiative to ask for.

terribly sorry,

I really want to laugh when you compare me to a gift from the dark moon, and you still feel a little unreal and unsure.

Because in my heart, there is only order, not dark moon. "

"I can understand that you don't think of yourself as the Dark Moon Clan, but even from the perspective of a partner, you shouldn't be so straightforward. Are you sure I won't be angry?"

"You will be angry, but what can you do?"

There was a silence between the two of them.

"I like your personality very much. It has the feeling of my youth."

Karen knew that it was General Tuffman who was trying to find a way for both sides to step down.

"It can be seen that you are different from other people in Dark Moon Island, so in front of you, I can speak my mind with confidence."

"Hehehe."

Tuffman smiled for a while, and said, "Ophelia's original marriage partner was the grandson of the chief bishop of York City."

"I know, he lives in the same courtyard as me in the hotel."

"It's an interesting arrangement." Tuffman pointed.

Karen smiled slightly without explaining.

"Okay, next, I want to talk to you as Ophelia's elder."

"Please tell me."

"I have always supported Ophelia's own choices, including marriage, she is the jewel in my heart, I have no children, she is my daughter.

I think that if you and her can get married, it will be a continuation of the love story between Patriarch Bernard and Miss Pall. You may not know the status of Patriarch Bernard and his story in Darkmoon Island. Filia is destined to be the next patriarch of the Dark Moon Clan. "

"I have a fiancee."

"I allow your fiancée to become your lover in the future, and I believe Ophelia will also approve of this compromise.

In the near future, she will become the patriarch, but I see your heart, and your own blood, whether the patriarch is she or you, it is possible, isn't it?

You will have the opportunity to be the first person under the dark moon. "

"hehe……"

"What are you laughing at, Karen?"

"Do you know, I often dream of a woman, sometimes she looks like a woman, sometimes she looks like a black cat, she always repeats a sentence to me in the dream, do you want to hear it? "

"Ms. Pall, what did I say to you?"

"She said that she regretted choosing the family's belief system. She didn't expect the ancestor to be so weak and limit her."

"So, what do you mean?"

"A dark moon is only worthy of reflecting the shadow of order."

For work and rest issues, one update is missing during the day, and I will try to finish writing the next update before twelve o'clock.
