Versatile Mage: I Awakened Nine Stars

Chapter 296 Ethan
Xu Shen frowned slightly.

Princess Medusa's words made him feel a little uneasy.

"What do you mean?"

Ethan looked alert and subconsciously took a few steps back.

"look at me!"

Princess Medusa shouted loudly, and her pupils suddenly changed. Even though her facial features were covered with blood-red mucus, one could still clearly see her deep eyes rotating with noble golden-red color.

Ethan's eyes became confused, and he was trembling all over, covered in sweat as if he had been fished out of the water.

After a while, he slowly woke up and said in horror: "Impossible, how come you haven't entered the molting period?"

Princess Medusa gave him a mocking look and hooked her finger, and a ring in Ethan's hand fell into her hand.

"Contract Ring? You must have put a lot of thought into it. Unfortunately, I made the right bet."

"Is this all your setup?"

Princess Medusa shook her head and said, "I am just using your trick. Do you think I don't know that you left a tracking mark on me? If you were more selfless and brought a forbidden spell mage with you, I might have been caught. What a pity..."

Even through the bloody mucous membrane, Xu Shen could feel her relaxed, happy and slightly proud mood.

"What a pity. I bet on human nature again."

As Princess Medusa was speaking, suddenly the snow-white goose down flew all over the sky, blocking Xu Shen's vision.

When the goose down fell, a girl in a black butterfly skirt appeared in its place.

Her skin was very fair and looked as smooth and reflective as cream.

She was also extremely beautiful, and her face half-hidden by her wavy vine-colored hair was enough to make perverts all over the world scratch their heads and lose sleep.

Xu Shen stared at the face carefully, and once again marveled at the Creator's nearly flawless aesthetic.

This face seems to be closer to the blood of Greece and some European countries in the north of the Aegean Sea. In the deep eye sockets are a pair of beautiful and lively big eyes, the nose is tall and delicate, and the mouth is small but beautiful. These facial features are just right in every inch. It is simply wonderful on the slightly round and tender face. The pure girlish feeling is slightly revealed with some fascinating charm, which is simply killing people. If she grows a few years older, she will definitely be a big goblin who brings disaster to the country and the people.

Ethan was indeed a popular figure in the military. He quickly collected his thoughts and said calmly, "Tell me what you want me to do."

"You switched roles very quickly," Princess Medusa said with a smile, "but I still have other tricks that I haven't used yet."

"No need for that," Ethan shook his head and said, "I know what you want. Don't worry, I will protect you until you have the ability to protect yourself in front of your two sisters."

Princess Medusa nodded with satisfaction: "It's easier to talk to smart people."

"The prerequisite is that you have to help me sit on the throne of the army leader."

"The leader of the army?" Princess Medusa laughed sarcastically, "You've already failed once, and you still haven't learned your lesson?"

Ethan shook his head and said, "If I become the leader of the army, I will have enough power to help you get rid of your two sisters. Don't you want to completely control the Serpent Empire?"

Princess Medusa sneered, "Stop making empty promises."

In the world of demons, strength is ultimately respected. What else does she have now except her bloodline? How can she tame those unruly demons and control such a huge empire of snakes and scorpions?

Getting rid of her two sisters now would only make the Serpent Empire more chaotic, and these chaos were enough to make Egypt anxious. Otherwise, after learning that the Queen Mother Medusa was seriously injured and dying, how could the Egyptians tolerate two supreme monarchs without backgrounds wandering around under their noses. They even had to pray that her two sisters would not jump too arrogantly and be slapped to death by some emperor.

Seeing that she wasn't fooled, Ethan shook his head with some regret.

"Go away," Princess Medusa said with a disgusted look at him, "Take your people and get out of the Sunset Temple."

Ethan's eyes were burning: "You won't come back with me?" "Get lost!"

Seeing Princess Medusa angry, Ethan was thoughtful.

Suddenly, he raised his head and said, "The news that you have entered the molting period must be true. I only lost half a chip in this round."

Princess Medusa's eyes were burning: "If you don't want to be my maid's snack, get out of here."

Beside her, the green-faced and red-tailed Medusa cooperated by opening her mouth wide and baring her teeth, making a hideous and terrifying look.

Ethan laughed: "If you really wanted to kill me, you wouldn't have deliberately lured me here. Now except for me, no one can protect you and let you grow up safely."

Princess Medusa's beautiful eyes flashed with danger and she asked, "So what?"

"Don't doubt the courage of a human being to perish together with the demons. If I tell the army leader that I am controlled by you, what will you do?"

Princess Medusa's eyes condensed, shining with golden-pink light.

Ethan suddenly howled miserably, and rolled over on the ground, stirring up countless goose down. The shrill and painful sound was as if he had fallen into a boiling oil pan. Even Xu Shen, who was hiding nearby and eating melons, couldn't help but get goose bumps all over his body.

Princess Medusa stepped on Ethan's head and said mockingly, "What now? What do you want to do?"

Ethan's body slowly stretched out, he raised his head slightly, his eyes full of fear.

"I hope this lesson will teach you a lesson, General Ethan. We still have a long way to go in our cooperation. What do you think?"

Having never been subjected to torture worse than death, Ethan always felt that he could always remain unswervingly loyal to his country.

But now, he could only lower his head humbly, and said carefully in a flattering tone that he himself did not even notice: "Dear Queen Medusa, you are right."

"Take your people and get out of the Sunset Temple!"

Princess Medusa waved her hand impatiently.

Ethan tumbled and crawled, running out of the temple in panic.

Xu Shen tightened the glazed phoenix feather robe that he was wearing.

The previous conversation between the two people had made it very clear.

Although Ethan failed, it is true that Princess Medusa is about to enter the molting period.

The reason he lost was simply because he miscalculated the time.

Now, God has really given him the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and reap the benefits.

A journey of a hundred miles begins with a single step. The closer you are to success, the more cautious you should be.

Xu Shen took a deep breath, calmed his excited heart, and carefully observed the surrounding environment and Princess Medusa's movements.

Time passed little by little.

Princess Medusa showed no signs of shedding her skin. She stayed in the ancient temple, monitoring everything in the Sunset Temple with a huge mirror.

Two days later, the hunter and military magician trapped in the formation finally broke out.

The team that previously consisted of two or three hundred people is now more than half injured or disabled, and the remaining people are filled with sadness, panic and relief.

Under Ethan's guidance, they left the temple in the early morning when the sky was filled with morning glow.
