  Chapter 224 Betrayal

   "Bambi always has a very bad feeling..."

  Walking through the dark well, Bambi looked anxiously at Milfie who was sitting on his shoulder, and said. Milfy also nodded solemnly.

   "Me too... I hope Misterina-sama will be fine..."

  The reason why the two were so disturbed was not without reason. In fact, they followed Mysterina's footsteps all the way and finally came to the royal city. And the wandering businessman they found here told the two of them a very surprising news, that is, he did see Mysterina and a witch walking into the royal city, but the witch was seen by the wandering businessman. , but a dangerous existence...

   "She believes in the three fingers, and aims at epilepsy, and wants to lift the ancient seal buried under the king's city... Be careful, it's a very dangerous thing."

Although they don't know what epilepsy is, Sanzhi and Duanmuhuai once heard Lani mention it - it is said that there was a dispute between the spokespersons of the supreme will, and one of them wanted to completely destroy the junction and let it be restored. Furnace of life. In the end, this party failed and was sealed under the Wangcheng, that is, Three Fingers.

  But... why is Mysterina with the three-fingered priestess?

   "Mysterina-sama will never want to destroy the junction, she must have been deceived!"

  Milfie clenched the rapier in his hand, and muttered uncomfortably to himself, but Bambi didn't speak, and at the same time, a red light flashed before Bambi's eyes.

"found it!"

   Following Bambi's voice, the next moment the vampire princess instantly transformed into a large group of bats, enveloping Milfie and flying quickly to the depths of the sewer. I saw a large group of dark bats passing through the sewers full of decay and stench, and came to the deepest underground. Immediately afterwards, the bat swarm condensed again, turning into Bambi's appearance again.

   "Mysterina-sama!"

At the same time, Milfie and Bambi also saw Mysterina. At this moment, the forest princess has completely lost her original health and vitality. Her armor is scattered all over the place, and her body is scorched everywhere. At this moment, the forest princess is lying on the ground like this, her eyes are dim and lifeless, as if she is dead.

   "Your Highness, are you okay!"

   Seeing this scene, Milfie screamed immediately, and she hurried to Misterina's side, staring at her uneasily, while reaching out her hand.

"your Highness………"

"do not come!"

  However, just as Milfie stretched out her hand, Misterina waved her hand abruptly, then jumped up, distanced herself from Milfie and Bambi.

   "Mysterina-sama??"

"big sister??"

  Looking at Misterina who seemed to be going crazy at the moment, Milfie and Bambi became nervous. They didn't expect that Misterina would turn into such a terrifying appearance, and they panicked for a while, not knowing what to do. Milfie looked at Misterina in surprise, and asked anxiously.

   "Your Highness, what's wrong with you... What happened?"

   "Don't come near me, Milfy..."

   Looking at the two people in front of her, Mysterina showed a sad expression.

"I made a stupid decision, which led me to bring the entire junction to the brink of destruction... I didn't want to do it, I just didn't know... No, this is just an excuse, in fact, I also have a vague I noticed that her... her purpose didn't seem to be a good thing. But I just didn't care too much, because I didn't want to let myself suffer failure again, like the failure before..."

   "Mysterina-sama??"

   "Big sister? What are you talking about??"

  Listening to Misterina's intermittent speech, both of them looked confused. And Mysterina just raised her sword and shield and stared at them.

   "Don't come here, leave here, Milfy, this is my order, just treat me as dead..."

   "This, how can this be?"

   "Please apologize to the king for me, I'm sorry, it was my stupid behavior that caused the result... This is the punishment I deserve."

   "I don't understand what you're saying at all, Misterina-sama!"

  Milfi moved forward again, but Mysterina raised her weapon and stopped her again.

   "Woo...that's really troublesome, Bambi should ask his family."

   Seeing this scene, Bambi tilted his head slightly, then closed his eyes, and got in touch with Duanmu Huai.

   A moment later, Bambi opened his eyes.

   "Bambi, what did Lord Knight say?"

   "The dependent's answer is very simple."

As she spoke, Bambi raised her hands. Following her movements, she saw the petite body of the night princess slowly floating in the air, bats emerged from her side, and at the same time, a handful of bright red The hammer appeared above Bambi's head, and the next moment it turned into a red light that enveloped Bambi.

   Immediately afterwards, a powerful magic power burst out suddenly.

   "Since you won't listen, just knock her out and take her back! Leave it to Bambi!"

  As Bambi’s voice fell, countless bats emerged from behind the Night Princess and rushed towards Mysterina!

   "...Ha, really, what the **** is going on."

Duanmuhuai withdrew his thoughts and shook his head helplessly. He didn't expect that Bambi and the others found Mysterina, but the forest princess seemed to be in some trouble. Hearing Bambi's description that the princess had no clothes on ... Uh, it shouldn't be that some bandit has fallen so viciously, right?

   It would be troublesome if you had to blame yourself.

   It just can't be said that it has nothing to do with me.

  But Duanmuhuai has just summoned Bambi's soul card and added an armament enhancement and a paladin blessing to her. At least the attack power has been increased enough—it should be enough to knock Mysterina unconscious and catch her back.

   Fortunately, my work is almost finished.

Duanmuhuai withdrew his thoughts and looked at Laya who was squatting on the ground. After that, Duanmuhuai gave the things he got from the church to Laya. The latter said that he felt his mother's smell from it. , she asked Duanmuhuai to take her to the church to seek the truth, so Duanmuhuai took her back to the church behind the volcano mansion. Under the leadership of the nobleman, they came to a remote room, and then Laya closed her eyes , it seems that something is sensed here.

   When she opened her eyes again, she collapsed like this.

"are you OK?"

"I……"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's question, Laya showed a wry smile.

"I'm not good, you may not know, I am an abandoned child, not born of grace, but a child born of a horrible ceremony. That kind of existence is not tolerated by humans, nor by snakes... more It should not be accepted by Lord Tanith."

   Having said this, Laya closed her eyes, a line of tears streaming down her cheeks.

"I have made many unreasonable demands to you, but please, this is the last time... Please kill me. I think I have made up my mind, but... I am still afraid, please let me get rid of this cursed painting body, be free."

  While talking, Laya raised her head, and facing her, Duanmu Huai's answer was...

"is this necessary?"

"Why?"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Laya opened her eyes in surprise and stared at him.

   "Master Hero?"

"To be honest, I think you seem to be a bit of a dead end. No matter what your background is, you were raised by Tanis after all. It is not easy to raise a child. I think if Tanis doesn't want to raise you, Let you die a long time ago, and it wouldn't take so long and energy to raise you up. Besides... Are biological parents so important? It's fine if they have to abandon you for some reason, but Listen to you, your biological mother doesn't seem to care about you at all, so why do you care about that kind of woman?"

  Duanmuhuai finds this kind of fact hard to imagine, just like those family-hunting programs shown on TV, the biological parents lost their children and searched for more than ten years, and then found them, and then both hugged each other and cried. Every time Duanmu Huai sees this kind of scene, he will feel it is fake. Of course, the fact that his biological parents have been looking for more than ten years may be the truth. But for the child, since he was sensible, he didn't know these two people. Even if they suddenly appeared and said that they were his biological parents, could this relationship be greater than that of his adoptive parents for more than ten years?

  From the standpoint of a child, two strangers suddenly appeared and hugged him and cried. Why did he cry along with him? This is too fake!

  Of course, if you are abused by your adoptive parents, that's another story.

  That's why Duanmuhuai felt that it was too unreasonable for Laya to seek life and death just because she knew her life experience.

If you want to say that Tanis abused her and raised her as a stepmother, then it’s fine if Laya is desperate and wants to commit suicide, but Tanis treats her well, at least as far as Duanmuhuai and Tanis talked a few times Look, Tanith really cares about this daughter.

  Even if you have a dog, you would be reluctant to keep it for more than ten years.

  Or the other way around, being able to keep it for more than ten years is enough to prove that the relationship is deep, otherwise it would have been thrown away.

   "I don't think you need to die in such a hurry, think about it, you are still young, and your life is still long."

  Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand and patted Laya on the shoulder, while the latter lowered her head without saying a word.

   "Okay, think about it."

  Duanmu Huai also knew that Laya needed to be calmed down right now, so he didn't say anything else, then turned and left Laya, returned to the volcano mansion, and found Tanis.

   "Is the kid all right?"

   "I think she should be able to figure it out after thinking about it."

  Seeing that the first question Tanis asked when she saw her was Laya, Duanmuhuai felt that this stepmother was pretty good, better than many real mothers.

   "That's right..."

  Tanis sighed, then she took out a bottle of potion from her arms and handed it over.

"What's this?"

   "This is the secret medicine of forgetting. If the child really can't get out of the pain, I beg you... to be able to free the child."

   "I don't think it will be needed, but let's keep it for now."

  Although Duanmu Huai felt that Laya should not need this thing, he still put the secret medicine of forgetting in his pocket. There are many ways to use this thing.

  For example, Qian Muhuai read a book before, in which the female protagonist was pursued by the male protagonist, and was finally moved by the male protagonist, and fell in love with him. In the end, the two got married, and then the heroine accidentally looked through the hero's diary and found out that she had actually known the hero a long time ago. And the male protagonist invented a medicine for forgetting. In order to get the female protagonist, he used various methods to deal with her. For example, the male protagonist imprisoned her for torture at first, then learned everything about the female protagonist, and then poured a secret medicine on her to make the female protagonist forget what happened to her.

  Then the second time the male protagonist arrested the female protagonist again, and then continued to drug the female protagonist.

In the end, the male lead was finally planning to take pure love, so he drugged the female lead again, and relying on his familiarity with the female lead before, the male lead easily caught up with the female lead and played the pure love route .

  The ending is that the male protagonist came back and found that the female protagonist already knew the truth, so he gave her another bottle of potion...

  Of course, Duanmu Huai would not use it in this way. Only believers of the God of Desire would play like this. Meeting Duanmu Huai directly lost his loyalty.

   "Then next..."

   Having said this, Tanis also returned to the topic. She stared at Duanmu Huai and said.

   "It's also time for you to meet my king, what do you think?"

   "I've been waiting for a long time."

   Duanmu Huai naturally would not refuse.

   "Okay, I see, then please close your eyes and wait a moment, I will lead you to my king."

  Hearing what Tanis said, Duanmu Huai closed his eyes according to his words, and the next moment, he suddenly felt empty under his feet.

  Afterwards, Tanis' voice came from Duanmuhuai's ear.

   "... Farewell, I hope it will be a perfect encounter."

  The next moment, when Duanmuhuai opened his eyes, he had already landed heavily on the ground, and in front of him was a monster with a huge head, like the nine-headed dragon Hydra.

   Aware of Duanmuhuai's Duanmuhuai, the snake raised its head and opened its **** mouth at him.

   Obviously, this does not mean welcome.

   But on the other hand, Duanmuhuai was relieved.

   "Thank you, Ms. Tanith."

  Looking at the big snake in front of him, Duanmuhuai gripped the hammer tightly, and soon, black flames burst out from his body.

   "Now, I don't have to worry about embarrassment!"

  The moment the voice fell, Duanmu Huai raised the hammer and smashed it at the head of the big snake in front of him!
