Chapter 631 28. Decision
The misunderstanding was quickly resolved.
They knew that Annan could not be Odris. He did not have the arrogance and tradition of the ancient nobles. On the contrary, he looked like a guy who would hang out with tavern mercenaries, thieves, and bards.
Through a misunderstanding, the Scarlet Princess subdued a vampire and also learned about the plans of Earl Turner and Archduke Borodia - they wanted to set foot in the Flower Capital through Duke Skeleton's necropolis, and he was responsible for the provocation. After breaking the alliance, he took matters into his own hands in order to go back without being punished.
The Crimson Castle did not appear in the plan... Either the Crimson Princess is insignificant in the eyes of the Earl and the Grand Duke, or he is not qualified to know the secret
"Dai...Father, let's go back." Princess Crimson shouted coyly.
"Yeah."
Lucy took the vampire back first, while Annan and the Scarlet Princess wandered back.
"We have known each other for seven days." Princess Crimson's mood was a bit wrong.
Annan thought of "The Seventh Night"... He began to regret not reading carefully what was written in the book.
"What does this mean?" Annan asked deliberately.
"Just say it...just!" Princess Crimson blushed visibly, and hurried back to her room as soon as she returned to her residence.
Annan came to the lounge thoughtfully and saw a copy of "Seventh Night" placed by the fireplace where the Crimson Princess always sat.
While Princess Crimson was in the room, Annan secretly turned to the bookmark of "Seventh Night". There were only thirty pages left before the ending.
Annan turned directly to the seventh night at the back: On this day, David and Isa had sex while being hunted... Annan glanced at the author's name, if he was fucked by this "Fuentes" Smash everything and make him wanted in Liberty City.
The gorgeous rhetoric makes this plot not full of desire, but full of beauty and sadness. Even if Annan only glances at the beginning and the end, he can still be saddened by this carnival of "everything is destined to end", which makes the betrayal at the end even more fatalistic.
The way Annan thought of was to tear out the pages where David betrayed Isa, confirm the contextual connection, and put the book back where it belongs before the idiot princess could find it.
In the next few days, Princess Crimson seemed to find no problem. She and the head maid stayed in the necropolis, filling in the details of the alliance, such as the two sides' joint defense, strategies against humans...
Annan made an excuse to go for a walk in the oak forest. Happy Water in Huadu is still on track. There are still three weeks left before the Huadu celebration. Huadu has already begun to prepare for the next celebration, and it has truly become a hell for those with pollen allergies.
Annan asked Klein and the others to try to cooperate with the city lord's palace. If Happy Water can be shown at the celebration... there will be no shortage of exposure.
Klein said they would give it a try, and then Annan opened another portal, bringing the two portals next to each other to deliver goods to the warehouse in Huadu.
But bad news came from Liberty City: Olmedo came to the portal and said that after using it for twenty-four hours, the three leaves of another world lost their effect on the fifth day. , turns into an ordinary elm leaf. Irilanze's leaf from another world also found nothing.
“Is there no way to replenish energy?”
“We haven’t found a way yet. Da De tried, but our spells didn’t work on it.”
"What did the ancestors say?"
"She said that only gods can make a tree without roots continue to grow."
However, the gods have disappeared for three years.
The leaves of another world cannot be replenished. If you want it to continue to be used...the only way is to get the branches of the tree from another world.
The World Tree can be replaced, but it is more difficult than the Tree of Another World... And it is not enough to bald the World Tree that the elves regard as a symbol.
Opportunities and dangers coexist in the Leaf of Another World. As long as Annan gets the branches of the Tree of Another World, Liberty City's finances won't have to rely solely on the carriage of magical images, and there's no need to worry about piracy - Annan has a monopoly on this industry.
The risk is worth it... Annan thought, and went to seek help from the Skeleton King.
By the way, I asked a question: "Why do both you and the businessman want me to go to Yiwen City to investigate?"
"Because you are different from others. Same." The Skeleton King said, "It's not status, charm or appearance. What really distinguishes you from others is your flawless mind... No prejudice, no arrogance, no matter poor or noble, noble or humble, you are the same. Treat everyone equally...
Annan felt a little guilty after being praised, but he still has some stereotypes...
"What does this have to do with going to Lost City?"
"Weirdness is a kind of existence in other worlds that we don't understand. The calmer your emotions are when facing them, the less likely they are to threaten you. "
Annan thought thoughtfully: "I mean, if, if I led an army into Wenwen City..."
"If the number of people was useful, Wenwen City would not have Fall.”
“Yes...”
It seems that the number of people is useless, but Annan still doesn't want to give up: "Can you help me?"
"I can only stay on the edge of the strange zone." The Skeleton King said. The presence of an existence like it in Lost City is a disaster...both for Weird and for itself.
So being weak is also Annan’s advantage?
"Will weirdness hurt weirdness?" Annan suddenly thought of something.
"They...should not take the initiative to fight." The Skeleton King replied.
"It's worth the risk... Mr. Leonefah, let's set out to find the merchant." Annan decided.
But you can't tell Liberty City... they will feel it's not worth it.
Annan told Princess Crimson that she wanted to go out with the Skeleton King. Princess Crimson had no doubts about him, although she had some objections to her knight not following her and running out with her allies all day long. .
Annan and Skeleton King set out early in the morning and arrived around the wooden house in the forest on a bright afternoon.
“I remembered something.”
Looking at the looming wooden house in the forest, Annan said: "You said that weirdness invaded Wenwen City, but this innocent girl is a local of Wenwen City..."
"Because weirdness is not a specific existence. , it is a power like magic that will unnaturally change everything around it," Skeleton King said, "If you decide to set off, I will tell you the situation in Lost City."
"Okay."
Annan did not knock on the wooden door of the forest house, but quietly led the Skeleton King to the nearby cemetery, and soon the light of magic lit up.
A few minutes later, Annan came to the door and knocked on the wooden door.
Not long after, the door opened a crack, and the shadow behind the door was dark, and nothing could be seen...or maybe the burnt girl was standing at the door.
"Excuse me, I know it's a bit presumptuous to visit you again...but what if I resurrect your father, mother and your brother?"
Behind Annan, three skeletons were burning together Miss Jiao waved her hand.
