Alien world

Chapter 207 60. To Mrs. Winter, a gift for the prisoners

Wood was tied to a wooden frame, shivering in the cold wind.

Annan and Francois waited for the vampires to throw themselves into the trap, but they did not lead out until Wood couldn't hold on.

Putting down the frozen Wood, Annan handed Wood a bowl of half-coagulated warm blood to warm his body and mind. Francois said beside him: "Either the vampires are not here, or they don't want to pay attention to their own kind."

Then came the succubus. This time it was Annan's turn to be the bait, and Claudia was also a side dish. The specific measures were that they stayed in their respective rooms, wearing a few clothes, and posing in attractive poses.

But even Annan made such a huge sacrifice and did not let the succubus appear.

Succubus and vampires are not idiots. Even though they coveted Annan at first, after Annan's true identity was revealed, they should know that they cannot afford to provoke the King of the North.

Annan's first encounter with the succubus ends in disappointment.

But "Betal's Redemption" is about to be staged.

After these days of publicity, the people of Breeze City and Betal City know that the second magic video of the King of the North after "The Fall of the Mage Tower" has been completed.

The only two eternal records are the Philosopher's Stone, one in the Benitez Grand Theater in Breeze City and the other in the Rose Garden in Betal City.

In the front hall of the garden, a banquet is being held in the name of the preview of "Betal's Salvation"—nobles will always find various excuses to hold a banquet.

Many Annan has never seen and heard, and it is said that nobles from the south and other countries came here.The nobles did not dare to talk to Mrs. Lin Dong, but they were keen to talk to Annan, because these people were all potential customers of Xingyue Bay. Annan had to talk to them, tired of coping, and hid on the terrace to enjoy a moment of peace.

Vines climbed the guardrails, birds and butterflies flew over the lawns and flowerbeds, geothermal heat and protective covers kept the rose garden at the core of Betal City still green in the cold winter.As for resources consumed on a daily basis?It is trivial to support tens of thousands of civilians.

The warm sunshine and fresh air seem like spring has come.Annan thought that Xingyue Bay would do the same in the future...but it must be enjoyed by all the citizens.

"The nobles in the south still want to hide in their rooms and watch in private, but you actually gathered a crowd to watch the Philosopher's Stone... The North is really rude, as vulgar as your food..."

Surprised whispers spread from the banquet to the terrace, and Annan pricked up his ears, listening to a nobleman with a southern accent and a local nobleman talk about "Betal's Redemption".

"It's not what you think, the protagonists of "Betal's Redemption" are humans and orcs..."

"Orcs and women? Oh, I can't believe the King in the North would do that..."

"Maybe it's a female orc?"

"What? Isn't that a wooden stick thrown into the well... Could it be that the leading role is the King of the North? I kind of want to see it..."

Annan can cover the cat's ears, but no one can cover his ears.

"Haven't you watched "The Fall of the Mage Tower"?"

"They are still doing this kind of thing in the mage's tower!?"

After the two nobles finished speaking and left, Annan returned to the banquet and walked straight to Mrs. Lin Dong.

The chief guard was talking to Mrs. Lin Dong, and Mrs. Lin Dong looked up at Annan, signaling the chief guard to continue.

"We caught a few mosquitoes, but some got away..."

Annan would not be so stupid as to think that Mrs. Winter's bedroom had entered mosquitoes: "A vampire?"

"Those guys from the Scarlet House came to the north for the secret." Mrs. Winter, who blocked all dangers for Annan, smiled and said, "But don't worry, I will attend the premiere of "Betal's Redemption" tomorrow and then leave. Then you should be more careful."

Annan talked with Mrs. Lin Dong for a while, and left the banquet to prepare for tomorrow's premiere.

The chief guard looked at the back of Annan's departure: "You miss Siwu, why did you refuse the resurrection ceremony of the Church of Death...?"

"Those who play with the soul will also be played by the soul... I don't want to repeat the old things of the ancient country of Bytes." Mrs. Lin Dong's coldness and tallness seem to be incompatible with the noisy banquet: "We miss the people who have passed away, but only miss the beauty of the time... ..."

……

Just as Jack and Rose in "The Fall of the Mage's Tower" prefer the carnival of the lower class to the banquet of the nobles, Annan prefers to stay in the dungeon and brag to the future citizens of Xingyue Bay.

"...Put a pea under the bed, no matter how many mattresses there are, I won't feel comfortable."

Now he has five fairy tales.

During the period, Annan also brought the kitten to the Ratman, but both the kitten and the Ratman were silent.

"Mice...are not afraid of cats either," said the Rat Man.

Annan thought that the size of the rats in the Rat Tide was close to that of a guinea pig, about the size of a cat.

After leaving with the kitten in his arms, Francois asked him, "Do you want to take the Rat Man back?"

"Well, I kept it on purpose."

The Rat Man would contact Xingyue Bay if he wanted to get his hands on it, and it was better to have traces than the Rat Man lurking in the dark. Annan could also use this to observe whether the Rat God and the gods lost contact after the turmoil.

Annan went to the orphanage again. These days, there were as many as [-] children in the orphanage, but there were no unbearable noise from so many children... They were so well-behaved that it made people feel distressed.

Annan borrowed people from Breeze City and Ms. Mia to take care of these children. When he learned that Mia was going to leave, he said in surprise: "Are you leaving too?"

"March will gradually become warmer."

Annan didn't ask who Ms. Mia was. Sometimes the truth is not that important.

"Where are these children?"

Ms. Mia said softly: "I believe you will keep your promise to the children."

The next day, Annan put on the mage's robe.He came to the dungeon and said to the old orc in a black suit, "Are you ready?"

It was Annan's turn to say this to others.

"My friend, do you know what that means?"

"It means that an orc is standing upright in front of all the nobles?" Annan said jokingly.

"I mean, why are you doing this for us?"

"I have seen flowers bloom, and I hope you will too."

……

The prisoners sat in the dark cell, watching the jailer bring the Philosopher's Stone and knock on the iron bars to wake everyone up;

The future citizens sat under the high wall sheltered from the wind, watching the girl named Lorna bring the Philosopher's Stone;
At the station of the De Chaso mercenary group, the mercenaries watched in shame as the deputy head Irina put down the Philosopher's Stone;
In the orphanage, the ignorant and curious children watched Ms. Mia take out a beautiful spar;

At the Benitez Grand Theatre, the aristocrats eagerly waited for the screening of the new King of the North.

In the Rose Garden Auditorium, Annan and the old orc came to the front row among the nobles who were evading one after another, and sat side by side with Mrs. Winter.

As the magic image lights up, the whispering gradually fades away.
