Chapter Eight: The City Among Whales(1/2)
After the group of soldiers like black owls appeared, the atmosphere of talking and laughing in the restaurant immediately dropped to freezing point. The guests shut up, and the maids immediately lowered their heads, not daring to look at the group of people.
This feeling made Xiziyue think of the spy war drama she watched when she was a child. The spy leader led a team to rush into the tavern where the revolutionaries were hiding. It was also like this. The atmosphere was so tense that the background music could be deformed.
Xiziyue also pressed her breathing very low.
Judging from the purity of the golden eyes of these people, their bloodline is not low. Even if she accidentally kicks over a small chair, it can easily arouse the alertness of these jackals, tigers and leopards.
The visitor is not good.
"It's not appropriate to run into my store every few days, so it's not appropriate to hinder others from doing business, Mr. Madias?"
Yemenggard took a graceful dress and walked down from the second floor leisurely. High heels knocked on the marble steps with beautiful sounds, and his pretty and cold eyes were condescending.
She is worthy of being the woman with the aura of the boss on her head. Her momentum of appearance actually shocked the group of fierce men, and all the guests looked at her with respect.
"Good afternoon, beautiful Mrs. Shamire, are you doing well recently? Are the flowers I gave you last month well taken care of?" The guards separated automatically, and the captain-like man walked out of it, very rich
The magnetic sound firmly grasps the attention of others from the opening.
This is a man who is unforgettable, with a cold appearance and tall figure. His lead-gray hair is neatly combed behind his head, revealing his arrogant and arrogant eyes.
In his eyes, there was also a fearful golden color, and his bloodline was obviously higher than that of his subordinates behind him.
"Madam Shamire?" Xiziyue was puzzled.
I don't know very well, it should be the name of Yemenggard's current identity.
"Tell me, what wind blows you again. If you remember correctly, I am a good citizen who respects the law and pays taxes on time. Occasionally I also send some knee pillows to give back to the society." Ye Menggad turned around
, sat calmly on the sofa beside him, and blew out a few provocative smoke rings at the handsome captain.
Hello! What the hell is a knee pillow discount roll? Is this thing really inherent in the original world view, not the setting you created!
"Sorry to disturb your normal business at this time. Mayor's Election Day is approaching, and urban security is a problem, especially when someone reported the case a few days ago, and there was a witness to an unknown person in the vicinity of this generation." Captain Madias revealed
A charming and dangerous smile, "When you think of your store opening on this street, you feel even more at ease. You want to protect you every minute and every second... Of course, there are also those pearls under your hands
Girls as cute as gems.”
"Thank you for your kindness, but as you can see, the store is still calm, so please go back. I'm not very impartial when I come to visit a widow's house where my husband has just passed away so often, right?" Ye Menggad
sigh.
widow?
Co-existing with your character, you are the vanguard! This worldview is too rich!
"It seems that I'm too hasty. Before you completely heal your pain for your deceased husband, I just need to play a silent umbrella holder and protect you in secret." Madias laughed at himself,
The corners of his mouth still had a twelve-point curve of confidence.
After a few simple inspections in the store, he put on his military cap again, turned around and walked out of the store, and groups of soldiers followed his pace.
Xiziyue and Yemenggard both breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that this small episode ended here.
"By the way, Mrs. Chamele, the top employee in your store, Miss Rose, seems to have never come to work, right?" Just as he was about to step out of the store, Madias suddenly spoke, his tone was a little cold.
Xiziyue's nerves tensed again.
Although she didn't know who Miss Rose was, at least she knew that the top employee was probably referring to herself.
"She had a fever a few days ago, but she has improved recently and is expected to return to work tomorrow night." Yemenggat remained silent.
"A few days ago, it wasn't that when the news of unknown people was witnessed, did you?" Madias walked into the store again, revealing the expression of a detective who caught clues.
"Just coincidence, she is sleeping in her room now. Are you going to see her?" said Yemengard, "but only to watch outside the door."
"No problem, girls' boudoir cannot be entered at will. This is the etiquette that a gentleman should have." Madias sorted out his neckline, smiling aggressively, "Let me lead the way."
Xiziyue immediately returned to the bed, covered the quilt, and pretended to be a patient.
The sound of footsteps gradually approached the corridor at the entrance, including the noble lady's shoes of Yemenggard and the high military boots of Madias.
In the crack of the door where Xiziyue had lying through before, a red and golden eyes appeared on the other side of it, peeping at the girl lying on the bed.
Pressure.
Xiziyue's adrenaline is being secreted rapidly, her heartbeats are accelerating, and cold sweats are rising.
The man outside the door was staring at her with a horrible look at his prey.
In the corridor, behind Madias, Charlotte and Zero both squeezed the tail of the broom in their hands. Once there was a turmoil, they immediately turned into combat maids.
"How, do you satisfy our Miss Rose's sleeping look?" said Yemengard coldly.
"It's worthy of being Miss Rose. Even if she falls asleep, it's still fascinating. I hope she can get better as soon as possible." Madias stood up from the crack in the door and took out a fresh rose from his top pocket like magic.
.
"This is a gift for you, Mrs. Shamil." He smiled gracefully and confidently. When he passed by the counter, he inserted the rose into the small water bottle on the table as a small gift before leaving.
After the group left, the whole restaurant felt relieved, the soothing music flowed again, and the maids talked and laughed with the customers again, and no one wanted to talk about the guards visiting the place.
It's like a shark's departure, the fish hiding in the corals poke their heads out, and the ocean regains its vitality.
Yemenggard kept leaning against the store, whispering his pipe while watching the black night owls disappear at the corner of the street.
After confirming that they go far-
The sound of flushing sounded.
Rose successfully integrates with the sewer.
"Okay, where did we talk about it before?" Yemenggard sat back on the small stool in front of Xiziyue, patted the gray in his hands, and everything was easy.
"That...is it really good to just flush someone's gift into the toilet so lightly?" Xiziyue looked at the other person with a remnant expression.
"That kind of guy is also worthy of gifts to me? I really think anyone has the value of united front and is worthy of my favor?" Ye Mengjiad immediately put on a disdainful face and sucked a trash can. The style of painting suddenly came from the rich family.
The vanguard becomes a high school girl who complains that the holiday is too short.
"Who is that man with a slut?" Xiziyue stroked her chest with lingering fear, recalling the feeling of being watched by him.
With her ability to write profiles, she has always been sensitive to her eyes. Although the second captain's eyes did not make her afraid, she was at least full of pressure, no less than the next generation of dragon power.
"As you can see, these guards are the order defenders of this world, each of them has a very high bloodline, no less than the elite in the executive branch, and their captain, Madias, if converted to the real world
, basically equivalent to a second generation of species." Yemenggarde looked thorny.
"It sounds not difficult to deal with," said Xiziyue.
Yemenggard grinned: "I know you are powerful and can kill the breathing trash with your own strength, but the situation is special now. If I could do it, I would have moved long ago and I wouldn't have to take action."
"What does it mean?" Xiziyue was puzzled.
“Because of the precepts.”
"Serial No. 106·Precepts?"
"It's that, this world has an extraordinary precept effect, suppressing all dragon bloodlines in the realm." Yemenggard tried to move his wrists, as if he was testing his own strength.
"Compared with the effects of the precepts here, the entire amplification precepts in the deepest part of the Cassel ice cellar can only be regarded as children's toys. Even I can only exert extremely limited power here, and maybe it's just a level A mixed race
to the extent.” said Jemengard.
"It's probably equal to Yikai." After thinking for a while, she added.
Wait! What is Yikai? Did you regard Caesar as the most basic unit of combat power? How can you bear it? How should Chu Zihang calculate it?
"You and Lilith are both the four monarchs. Her precepts have such a strong effect on you?" Xiziyue was curious.
"Of course not under normal circumstances, but the same sentence is still the case. This is Lilith's cocoon, and every inch here is composed of her spirit, just like a novelist making rules at will in his own story. In theory,
, In this world, she can deduce all the words she has mastered to the level of the Black King."
"Black King level..." Xi Ziyue's heart trembled.
She remembered the things that had not had time to think about carefully in the Ice Sea Church, even though she was unwilling to think about them too much.
"The precepts are often treated equally by creatures in the realm. We are suffering from precepts, and the enemy is also suffering from precepts. If they really start, they will only have an advantage in the number of people at most." Yemenghat emphasized.
"That is to say, we have to rely mainly on weapons and terrain to fight," said Xiziyue.
"That's true, we need to have a good team cooperation." Yemenggard smiled tacitly.
Under the suppression of large-scale super commandments, even the monarch-level dragon king was suppressed to the strength of only the A-level hybrid species, not to mention the generational species level.
Perhaps in the head-on fight, our side still has an absolute advantage, but in the face of the enemy's continuous suppression of the number of people, this advantage will soon be smeared.
For example, when Lilith dragged into a dream and assassination, both sides were basically equivalent to Muggles, and in the end, the side with the gun won.
Suddenly, Xiziyue thought of something.
That dream...can it be the current world?
She suddenly turned her head and looked out the window, confirming that her guess was correct.
Same medieval style, same steam equipment, same...port city.
Yes, this is indeed a port city. Although it is winter and it still snows lightly, Xiziyue can feel its sea water smell, which means it is a sea-side city.
This is a real accident.
She was on the verge of death here for a time, but unexpectedly, in less than a few days, she returned here and brought her team together.
To be continued...
