Chapter 805 36. Who is first?
"Will it betray us?"
Bloem has always been wary of Jerry.
He is not targeting Jerry, but is wary of all rat people, including Broken Tooth...
This sentiment is also what most humans think.
Because of thousands of years of hatred, it is easy for them to spread their emotions to the entire group - not to mention that the rat people themselves are not good people.
Annan answered him: "Most dark elves have never seen the sun in their lives, because it is a curse, it is a shame, and it is the existence they hate the most. But there is a dark elf who was born in the darkness, but But she longed for the light. One day, she unexpectedly walked out of the darkness and stood in the sunshine. She felt the beauty that she had never seen before..."
Blom said as if he didn't understand the metaphor: "You. Are you talking about Della?"
Annan shrugged: "I made it up"
Jerry had disappeared into the mountains with the gray rat priest on his back, and Annan got down to business. : "We must tell the empire quickly about the ratman nest in the northern mountains."
"The empire already knows."
"That's good."
After speaking, Annan suddenly realized that there was something wrong with Blom's voice. He turned around and saw Brom looking frightened, and standing next to him was a silhouette wearing a black cloak and wearing a bone sword badge on his chest.
"Is he an enemy?" Annan quietly held the amulet.
"So..." Blom said bravely.
The black cloak looked at Blom dissatisfied: "I am the judge of the Empire's Bone Blade Legion."
"What is that?"
Annan relaxed slightly. The Imperial Legion...then there should be nothing to worry about.
Did he suddenly appear because of the Skaven Hive, or because he made a deal with the Skaven...
"The Blade of Bones, also known as the Eye of Bones, is the surveillance empire of the Tatooine Empire. The eyes of the territory.”
Annan was feeling ominous, and it seemed that it was most likely not because of the former...
"I have a question."
The judge spoke, but Annan suddenly said, "You can't blame me, I was originally I don’t want to be like this, but your people say that the only criterion for judging military merit is rat ears, regardless of method..."
"It doesn’t matter..." The judge shook his head and said with a half-smile: "What is Logbo? What do you mean?”
Before he could be surprised, Annan was stunned by the information revealed by the judge.
"Logbo" was someone who deliberately deceived the coalition leaders when he bewitched them. The inquisitor knew that, does that mean that everything he did had been seen by the empire for a long time...?
Looking at the bright side, maybe Skeleton Edge was just staring at the other coalition forces and happened to hear what he said.
"Um...Mr. Executive Officer, what did you mean by saying 'it doesn't matter' just now?" Annan asked tentatively.
"You have already said that the only standard is mouse ears."
Annan breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that whether buying mouse ears or making deals with the rat people is not a problem for the empire. What.
"That's because you are not from the Empire."
As if he understood Annan's thoughts, the executive officer sneered, "Having private contact with the rat people is a serious betrayal of the empire and will be sent directly to the Inquisition."
"Loyalty is not absolute, but is it absolutely disloyal?"
"Well said, but I like your sentence better, 'The empire is not something to be loved, but something to be feared. '. "
Annan's breath froze, and he suddenly understood this sentence more deeply.
The executive left. He disappeared as suddenly as he appeared suddenly, and Annan didn't even notice the magic fluctuation.
"Is he gone?" he asked Blom.
"I don't know..." Blom shook his head. "But he is deliberately warning us."
"What warning?" Blom looked at the clear stupidity in the black eyes of his city lord, without revealing any undue sarcasm: "Let us be careful not to Crossing the line, otherwise he would just let us send repeated messages back, and there would be no need for a birth reminder.”
"That's true."
Annan felt a little aggrieved. After knowing that there was a "Skeleton Eye" everywhere behind him, he couldn't even lose his temper.
Take a deep breath and exhale, Annan said relaxedly: "This is a good thing. The empire has always had a good relationship with us, and now we have the Skeleton Edge to endorse us. We don't even bother to find excuses, and just put Mouse Ear Just take it back.”
Part of the truth, part of the lie.
The truth is that Annan has no intention of betraying the empire, so he has nothing to fear. The lie is that it’s always uncomfortable to have your every move watched.
"By the way, when does the hunting plan ranking start?"
Blom looked up, and the sun was about to disappear on the forest horizon.
"It should be now."
Annan appeared anxious. Don't have everything arranged and then be a step too late.
He quickly opened the portal on the Northern Great Wall and asked Blom to go back first: "Tell the imperial officials and ask them to wait for me."
Blom returned to the Northern Great Wall and rushed to the Black Watch station, just in time to see the imperial official who had come before announcing the tenth place of the hunt.
"Windmill Principality rewards fifty sets of imperial standard stainless steel armors."
The military minister of Windmill Principality couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Bloem hurried over, passed the inspection by the guard, and broke into the announcement ceremony.
"Second place——"
"Please wait a moment!" Blom interrupted the young official and touched his waist. He suddenly remembered that the magic bag was at Annan's place, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "The Lord of Annan said that he had obtained another batch of mouse ears and was on his way. On the way back, I hope you can wait for him to come.”
The young official couldn’t decide and looked at the leader of the Black Watch beside him.
"Then wait for our little warlock." The legion commander joked nonchalantly, "I hope he can surprise me."
The leader of the force who stood aside honestly They looked envious.
Let the imperial envoy and army commander wait for him... They also want to have this kind of treatment, but not everyone has the ability to produce newspapers and cement and please their ancestors.
So Annan is really not called Annan Montreal?
......
As night fell, Jerry stopped in front of a stream with the gray-haired mouse priest on his back.
Wherever the rat tide passes, there is no life left. But the continuous rain made the stream clean itself again.
“Master Grey-haired Rat, do you want to clean it up?”
"Okay."
Jerry put down the weak gray rat priest, so it could see Jerry's tall figure through the faint moonlight.
"I remembered, you are the Stun rat in the Rat Team."
The gray rat priest is a head shorter than the Annan thing, but he stood in front of Jerry, As if overlooking it: "How did you rescue me?"
"Human things need mouse ears, I pretended to be the champion mouse captain and tricked the human things into giving them mouse ears..." This is Jerry He and Annan had already thought of the explanation.
"You did a good job..." The gray-haired rat priest turned and walked towards the stream, "When you go back, you will be the champion rat captain."
The silver moon was shining, and Jerry watched the gray-haired rat priest walk into the stream. , wet the gray hair and outline the wonderful outline.
The desire to reproduce that had been dormant for several years was suddenly ready to take action at this moment.
