13 Mink Street

The dark moon is only worthy of reflecting the shadow of order.

Tuffman knew that this was still a euphemism, but what it really meant was that Dark Moon is not even worthy to lift the shoes of Order.

However, Tuffman was not offended by this statement, because what Karen said was the truth.

Everyone knows that the Cult of Order is very powerful, but through this war of order against reincarnation, everyone realizes that order is stronger than everyone imagined before.

Therefore, whether it is from the perspective of personal development or power promotion, Dark Moon Island is incomparable with the Cult of Order.

Tuffman said: "I can understand you, but as an investor, your ambition may make our investment never see the benefits."

Karen asked rhetorically, "If it weren't for me, wouldn't you invest in other people?"

"You make a lot of sense." Tuffman nodded.

This is a question of long-term investment and short-term returns.

However, Tuffman knew that after Karen made this decision, there would be no possibility of short-term gains in Darkmoon Island itself, and it was impossible for you to tie people back to Darkmoon Island and forcefully press their heads to make them get married.

This is the most short-sighted option.

"I'm looking forward to how far you can go in the Order of God. As I said just now, I like your temper very much."

"Thank you for your appreciation."

"Hehe, okay, you continue to rest."

Tuffman walked out of the room, and after the waiter at the door closed the door, his expression instantly became gloomy.

He walked to the study room, sat down on the chair again, and gently stroked a blood gemstone ring with his fingertips.

He had to admit that he couldn't see through Karen.

As a man who has spent half his life in the sea, he will instinctively doubt everything, because the sea is the best at deceiving people. One moment the sky may be clear, but the next second it will be stormy.

There is no reason, no reason, and no evidence. He just suspects that there may be some unknown secret in this extremely solid chain of clues.

This is ridiculous, because if it is really a man-made arrangement, it is really a big deal, but its purpose is just to gain the favor of your niece?

But there is a problem here.

Tuffman knew that his niece already had a good impression of Karen because of the last contact in Wayne. This time the two met, no accident, it was Karen's indifference that made his niece treat him Say the words that will cut the feeling off.

In addition, in his previous conversation with Karen, he clearly expressed his ambition. He wanted to continue on the road of order, and even expressed his disdain for Dark Moon unabashedly. Ms. Pall's words.

Deliberately falsifying, in order to deceive his niece's heart?

But before and after, it was he who actively refused and rejected the relationship between the two of them to develop in the direction of marriage.

Tuffman frowned, it was too contradictory.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

The study door was pushed open, and Ophelia stood at the door.

"uncle."

Tuffman noticed that her niece did not enter the study, she just wanted to say hello to herself, and then immediately let herself go to visit the man who had just saved her.

He has always treated Ophelia as his daughter, and now seeing her like this, Tafman felt a little helpless.

"The banquet is over?"

"Yes, uncle."

Tonight, my elder brother hosted a banquet for several bishops, including Wolffren, to get closer. My niece was with me. After the banquet, she returned here immediately.

"He's awake, go and see him."

"Okay, uncle."

Ophelia closed the study door.

"Ah……"

Tuffman smiled self-deprecatingly, and looked down at the blood gem in his hand.

He feels that he still prefers to lead the fleet to fight against pirates and other island forces, because he knows that the opponents he faces in the sea are difficult, but they can be defeated through his own operations and arrangements.

But for those high-ranking orthodox gods, he is very clear that even if he wins ten battles in a row, the huge gap in strength between the two sides cannot be changed, and he only needs to lose one game, and then Dark Moon Island will be destroyed.

He didn't like dealing with opponents he couldn't beat, oh no, not personally.

Tuffman put his hand on his forehead,

Said to himself:

"The remnants of the light..."

...

The door of the room was opened, and Ophelia walked in.

Karen was leaning on the bed at this moment, drinking a cup of tea that the waiter had just brought in.

Ophelia walked up to Karen, sat down by the bed, and asked with concern:

"How is your recovery going?"

"Fortunately, I was treated by you personally, otherwise my injury might have healed long ago."

Hearing this, Ophelia's expression froze slightly, and she didn't speak.

Karen immediately put down the teacup and said, "I'm just joking, thank you for your care. Not everyone can enjoy this kind of treatment."

Ophelia shook her head and said, "How did you manage to be so optimistic right after waking up from a serious injury?"

"As long as I don't lie in the coffin for a day, I will try my best to maintain a good mood to face life."

"What about after lying in the coffin?"

"In this way, the muscle memory can be maintained after lying in the coffin, and maybe the smile can be maintained after death."

"What do you want to eat?"

Karen was surprised: "You want to do it yourself?"

"No, I told the cook to prepare it."

"Anything is fine."

"Then, what should be done now?" Ophelia asked, "You saved me, you didn't die, you were seriously injured, you woke up, I am sitting by your bed now, you are very optimistic, the injury is due to treatment. Timeliness is not a big issue...and me, what should I do now?"

"You can face life with a smile on your face."

"You're playing tricks on me."

"NO, I have not."

"You are just perfunctory me." Ophelia said firmly, and at the same time, there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, but this smile was a little cold, "If I said that I would continue to take care of you, or show you my affection for you , you will definitely bring out your fiancée to prevaricate me again, or divert this topic inadvertently."

"Will it be?"

"You can."

"It turns out that we all know each other so well."

"From childhood to adulthood, I can basically get what I want."

"This is not a good way of education. You must not spoil your children like this in the future."

"So, go fucking decent!"

Ophelia swears, and this is the first time Karen has seen the noble princess swear.

Then, Karen found that his hand was caught by Ophelia, and Karen didn't pull it back, but the next moment, Ophelia's fingers crossed his own, and Karen tried to pull back his hand, but No tics.

Judging from the previous experience of dealing with the captain together, I am no worse than Ophelia in terms of spells, but Ophelia, as a dark moon warrior, is much stronger than herself in terms of physical strength .

When she competed with the captain in close combat, she kept losing ground, but that was the captain after all.

When Ophelia exerted strength, it was a bit unrealistic for Karen to try to break free, and Karen noticed that with his exertion of strength, Ophelia was also increasing his strength.

In the end, Karen compromised and did not continue to increase his strength, because if he continued to increase his strength, he would have to use magic to fight Ophelia on the bed.

The sneer at the corner of Ophelia's mouth didn't dissipate. She grabbed Karen's hand, leaned forward, wrapped her other hand around Karen's waist, and pressed her face against Karen's chest.

Karen subconsciously wanted to reach out and move Her Highness's hand holding her waist away, but it seemed that she had sensed her movement, and Ophelia exerted her strength in advance to hug Karen even tighter.

Her head also changed its position on Karen's chest, looking for a comfortable angle.

"Sorry, it's the first time I've slept on a man's chest, so I don't have experience."

"that……"

"You can continue to resist, it's fine, even if you are not injured, you are not my opponent when I get close, let alone you are still injured now."

"No..."

Once upon a time, a woman named 姵茖 complained to Fanny, she said that she regretted not forcibly eating Karen when she first met Karen in the captain's office, but after a while, she found that she Can't beat Karen.

Apparently, Ophelia did not make the same mistake as Xie Qiao.

Karen continued to sit on the bed, and Ophelia kept leaning against Karen.

There was no worry or entanglement on Her Royal Highness's face, she seemed to be guided by Qingming, no, it was the dark moon.

She is not a little girl in school, she doesn't like to be strong on the surface and cry behind her back, she is a princess and a warrior.

If she can't be happy with each other, then she will first make herself happy unilaterally.

After thinking this through, her heart suddenly opened up.

"Ophelia..."

"Oh, don't say those words to disturb my interest now, can you?"

"But……"

"Please put your hand on my back, that's the proper behavior."

"But……"

"Can't you satisfy me with this little request? Just treat it as helping a friend."

Karen puts his hand on Ophelia's back.

Ophelia continued to lean on Karen's chest with a relaxed expression.

"Have you ever hugged your fiancée like this?"

"Embrace."

"Is she very considerate and gentle?"

"Yes."

"She won't be like me, she can't even rely on the posture? I'm not saying that she has rich experience, I mean, maybe I'm really not the type you like, you like gentle and quiet, right?

It's okay, you answer me normally, I just want to hear the real answer. "

"right."

When the word "yes" came out, Karen felt his waist was tightened even more. Are you okay?

"You said that you and your fiancée met on a blind date arranged by the parents of both parties."

"um, yes."

"If your first blind date is me, will you be with me?"

Karen hesitated.

"answer."

Ophelia began to urge.

"Will do."

"Why?"

"Because you look good too."

"You only look at women to see if they look good or not?"

"It's the first time you meet and go on a blind date, what do you look for if you don't look at the outside?"

"So, it's because I'm late, isn't it?"

"Fate."

"Your definition of love is really superficial, Karen."

The people of Dark Moon Island were all brought up under the influence of the love stories of their ancestor Bernard, and they have a romanticism about love.

Karen really wanted to tell her what your ancestor Bernard's love really looked like.

"Ophelia, do you know why love stories are always so popular in this world, because people generally like to pursue something that they can't get in reality in literary works.

You may think that my definition of love is superficial, but you will find that I am actually happier than most people in the world. "

"You are not older than me." Ophelia reminded, "But you always give people the appearance that you have lived a lifetime to see through many things."

"It's probably because everyone's maturity is different. I may mature a little earlier, but Ophelia..."

"Okay, I know, don't worry, I won't destroy the relationship between you and your fiancée, although there is no marriage law on the island, but when I read the works in Makley's language, I can also find the resonance of monogamy.

You don't have to have any psychological burden, I can even go to your wedding with a smile on my face. "

"but……"

"Don't worry, it's to bless, not to make trouble."

"Ophelia..."

"Okay, be quiet, I want to lean on for a while."

a long time,

Ophelia felt that her face was a little wet and greasy, she raised her head unexpectedly, looked at Karen, and asked:

"what happened?"

"The wound...is open."

…

Facts once again proved that the injury that might have recovered earlier became more serious because of Ophelia's careful care.

But fortunately, the treatment resources here are very rich. After a group of doctors came late at night to treat him with spells, after a night, Karen could get out of bed and wash himself in the morning.

Of course, this is also thanks to the captain's proper injury treatment.

"I have already sent a letter to your captain, explaining your current situation. He said that he will arrange someone else to replace you on duty, so that you can recuperate and rest here. Your captain is indeed a good man."

"Um."

Yes, he even wished that he could spend confinement with the child's mother here.

"Are you still going back to the hotel today?"

"Today is the opening of the meeting, and I want to go to the scene to see it." Karen said.

"You care about such things?" Ophelia asked.

"Don't you care?"

"The specific details of the meeting can be seen after the meeting."

Karen shook his head and said, "It's not the same. I want to experience the atmosphere. Maybe after sitting down and listening for a day, I won't bother to go back the next day."

"If you feel bored, I can take you to other places on the island."

Karen did not refuse, but said: "Okay."

The breakfast is very rich, especially the turtle egg, which is very delicious. You can dig it out with a spoon and eat it. The taste is really intoxicating.

Karen felt that this turtle egg could even shake the position of Yangchun Noodles as breakfast in his heart.

It's a pity that Karen heard from Ophelia that this kind of turtle egg was specially caught by her uncle General Tuffman when he was sailing in the sea. Even if Her Royal Highness Princess of Darkmoon Island wants to eat this kind of turtle egg every day, it is difficult. , let alone myself.

So far, except for my cat drinking the coffee beans bought with coupons, the rest of the people have not been so extravagant as to eat food with coupons.

After breakfast, Ophelia said, "Take my carriage and go back to the hotel."

Immediately afterwards, Ophelia added: "I'll go to the hotel with you, I have something to do too."

The two of them took the carriage together and returned to the hotel in the morning, which almost showed a certain relationship.

Karen thinks this feels a little strange. Generally speaking, in the relationship between men and women, boys want to take the initiative to declare the relationship and show their sovereignty. As a result, it is completely reversed in Ophelia's case.

Oh no, if the male and female identities are reversed, everything seems to make sense again. Ophelia clearly picked up the boyfriend script, so wouldn't she be...

"No, I'll go back by myself."

Karen walked out of the other garden, crossed a street, and hailed a carriage:

"To the Bernard Hotel."

At this moment, a female warrior also got into the carriage. Although she was wearing a helmet, Karen knew that she was Ophelia.

Ophelia spread her hands and said to Karen, "So you don't have to worry about affecting your reputation, right?"

"Your set of armor is not bad. It is more snug than the one you wore when I first met you when you got off the boat."

"Large armor is cumbersome and time-consuming to wear. In addition, be careful when leaving the hotel recently. Although the bright remnant is dead, the possible accomplices have not been caught yet, but the whole island has been secretly hunted down."

Karen nodded and said, "I hope they can be caught as soon as possible, these damned guys!"

The carriage started to drive towards the Bernard Hotel, and Ophelia said, "Go through the side door of the hotel, our gentleman doesn't like being seen with me."

"Yes, miss. Besides, sir, you are not a gentleman."

The Bernard Hotel is divided into several accommodation areas. The main entrance corresponds to the largest accommodation area. Now people from the Cult of Order live in, and the side entrance corresponds to the accommodation area of ​​the Cult of Reincarnation. Therefore, although the two delegations live in the same Hotels, but not much intersection.

On the road outside the side entrance of the Bernard Hotel, a group of people held banners and shouted slogans loudly:

"We want peace."

"Oppose aggression, oppose religious wars."

Seeing this scene, Karen couldn't help asking: "Is there a believer in the Reincarnation Sect on Dark Moon Island?"

Ophelia shook her head and said: "There is no such thing on the island, but a holy place of the Reincarnation Sect is not far from Dark Moon Island. Dark Moon Island is a big island, but there are some small islands in the nearby sea area, and there are many people on it. They believe in the Reincarnation Religion. This time they came here spontaneously, they registered when they came to the island, and they will not be expelled during the meeting. After the meeting, only the missionary of the Religion of Order can exist on the island."

"Then why don't they go to the main entrance to demonstrate?"

"Afraid of being beaten."

The coachman stopped the carriage: "Miss, sir, here we are."

Ophelia got out of the car and threw a gold coin to the coachman.

"Pray for you, generous lady."

Karen and Ophelia got out of the carriage.

Karen said, "I'll go to the accommodation area to report that I'm back."

"I'm going to the conference hall."

"Well, goodbye first."

"goodbye."

Karen didn't wear a divine robe, but an islander's costume, and didn't wear a mask, so he walked through the residence area of ​​the Reincarnation Sect and returned to the yard where he lived.

I pushed open the door and walked in. There was no one in the yard. There was still a short time before the opening of the meeting, and everyone was having breakfast in the room.

Karen pushed open the door of his room and saw the captain sitting by the bed drinking coffee. When Karen came back, the captain immediately put down the coffee cup, stood up, came to Karen, and stretched out his hand to check Karen:

"Hey, let me tell you, there won't be a scar left, and the best healing techniques and potions must be used."

"Captain, I hope you won't..."

Before Karen finished speaking, he was interrupted by the captain: "Let me tell you a secret, there really is a remnant of light on this island."

"Aren't you the captain?"

"Oh no, I mean, besides me, yesterday you were recuperating, I wandered around the town again, and then found the sign signal of the gathering of the remnants of the light, well, in theory, this sign signal is still 'I ' by design."

"Because of what happened the night before yesterday, Darkmoon Island is now secretly hunting down the bright remnants on the island. It's normal to alarm them."

"No, if it is facing a search, shouldn't it be more silent and hidden? How could it be possible to send a signal to actively gather?

Although Bernard killed more than a thousand priests of light, there were many islanders who believed in light at that time, and the seeds of light may have taken root in Dark Moon Island long ago.

Even Wayne, the place under the jurisdiction of our Kosmos Cult has light remnants, and their ability to survive is really strong. "

"Captain, what do you mean?"

"I suspect that they may plan to do something during the meeting, are you planning to go in with them to observe the meeting?

Then go with Memphis, each bishop can bring two guards to sit below. "

"What about you, captain?"

"After sending the bishop into the conference hall, I will go out to find out what their purpose is."

"What are you going to do?"

"Easy, I'll go straight to their meeting."

As Neo, it is easy to get involved in the gathering meeting of the remnants of light, and the sign signal was created by the "he" in the memory.

"team leader……"

"What's the matter, do you have anything else to do?"

"Promise me, you're just going to inquire about the news and attend the meeting."

"if not?"

"Don't give them advice."
