Fairy’s Box

The hall where the lights flickered looked a little dim, and the atmosphere was silent. Hiluda was full of confusion. She wanted to break this repressed feeling several times, but she didn't know how to open it up.

It was still raining heavily outside the window, and the water marks on the floor-to-ceiling windows quickly slid down, obscuring the pitch-black world.

"What do you mean... do you want me to watch my people being slaughtered by monsters and stand on the sidelines indifferently?" Her face was pale, and her words were a little difficult.

"It's not that you are indifferent. You dispatched the army at the first time, and you have fulfilled your responsibility." The shadow warrior replied.

"So... how are you going to deal with the onslaught of refugees now?"

"Breaking into the forbidden palace is naturally a death penalty."

"You are not going to deal with the undead, but instead you are going to deal with the innocent people?" Hiluda's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the dark light in his eyes flashed.

"Guarding the goddess of Freya is our innate duty and the highest principle of action. In front of it, we have to step back in everything. If we choose the safety of the queen and the people, we will not hesitate. Choose the former - do whatever it takes to do it." Bardo knelt down in front of her, bowed his head, and said in a decisive tone.

"Why did things become like this...why must we do this...my army...why are they moving so slowly?" Goddess Freya clenched her scepter, her eyes dazed, and she said incoherently .

"The scale of the demon disaster is not large, and things will be resolved soon. Before that, you must be strong!"

"Open the window."

Hiluda bit his lower lip and suddenly spoke.

"Queen?"

"I told you to open the window!"

She raised her voice, her face was sullen, and she revealed a majesty that could not be rejected.

"As ordered..."

Hearing this, Bardo raised his head, turned to the window on the side of the courtyard, and glanced at the night at the moment.

It was still dark outside, as if it was covered by a huge cloth curtain, and the screams of countless people were isolated by the noise-proof glass, which sounded a little unclear.

"..."

The shadow warrior sighed, opened the window a small crack, and the cold night wind mixed with the torrential rain came in, and at the same time, there were screams and wailing that were magnified dozens of times.

Mixed in torrential rain and people's shouts, like a poignant movement, the atmosphere in the villa became even more depressing.

"Queen, you don't need to blame yourself, all this is the result of the mayor's dereliction of duty. It is inevitable that there will be casualties in the rampage of monsters. It is regrettable that Osseden has suffered huge losses, but the Queen is not chaotic, and she went to the front line to command resistance and stop it with one hand. Demon disaster - such a thing will only increase your prestige." Bardo felt that the atmosphere was getting more and more wrong, and he spoke comforting words again.

In just a few minutes, this man had prepared a scapegoat for her, and by the way pointed out the direction of operations after the disaster subsided.

"Then what to do with the surviving refugees?" She shuddered as she chewed on what the other party meant.

"We will let them tell the truth truthfully." The shadow warrior's face was frosty and he said implicitly.

"..."

Hilda felt the chill to the bones and gripped the scepter hard, the only way to wake her up.

She needs to keep thinking about things rationally. On the one hand, she must prevent the spread of the demonic disaster, and on the other hand, she must beware of the influx of refugees into the palace.

It was still raining heavily outside, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard were blown by the branches and leaves, and even if they sat on the throne from a distance, they were still wet by the fluttering rain. The flickering electric light passed through the rain screen and projected into the pitch-black courtyard, and the surroundings were filled with a strange and eerie feeling.

At this moment, she saw that there seemed to be light and shadow floating outside the villa, not like the light of lightning.

"Who is in the courtyard?"

Goddess Freya felt a palpitation and suddenly became alert.

"Someone will handle it."

Bardo looked out the window solemnly, scanning the traces of light and shadow, and then quickly closed the window.

boom--!

At the moment when the window was closed, Hiluda's eyes fell outside the courtyard again, and the gloomy wind suddenly picked up, and the broken branches and leaves outside the window rustled and rolled up on the ground, like countless ghost claws dancing quietly. .

In the depths of the green belt, a figure emerged again, looking at them quietly with cold eyes.

Hiluda's heart froze, his muscles tightened, and he immediately raised his scepter to protect him in front of him.

"who!"

Bardo was faster than her, his figure rushed out like a shuttle, and the arrow shot into the green belt, and his hands were also raised outwards, setting off a hurricane, which directly wiped out all the surrounding trees.

...

"Brother, are you still doing it?"

Beryl raised her head, looked at the towering branches of the world, looked at him suspiciously, her tone seemed to be urging.

"Don't worry, it's not time yet."

Yale sensed the fluctuations of the Lord of the Rings, his expression was calm, and he hovered indifferently in place.

...

Whoosh-!

The wind crushed the hole, and a figure jumped out of the flying branches and entangled with the shadow warrior.

At almost the same time, a series of explosions erupted from every corner of the palace at the same time, and the sound of violent fighting almost drowned out the thunder - it seemed that a huge assassination group was invading the crystal palace of Goddess Freya.

呲——!

Just when Xiluda panicked and didn't know how to deal with it, a scarlet ray hit the chandelier, and the crystal shattered together with the light.

In an instant, the interior of the hall was completely dark, and only a vague outline could be seen in the vast palace, and the dazzling electric light flickered frequently, becoming the only light in the space.

At this moment, the corridor was still lit, and dim light came in from under the crack of the door.

"..."

Goddess Freya held the scepter, and following the nature of human beings, she subconsciously ran to the corridor. As a result, just as she rushed into the corridor, the lights above her head went out.

Dark, with no light around.

There was silence in the corridor, Xiluda groped against the wall, and soon found the bodies of many waiters, and at the end of these icy bodies, there was a vague figure. ,

She is like a transparent person hiding in the dark night, holding a sharp blade lingering in the cold light, walking silently in the corridor. There were shadows and shadows around, and there was no sound at all, and all the breath seemed to be swept away by the darkness.

"Who are you?"

"Why invade my palace?"

"What do you want from me?"

When she saw the scene in front of her clearly, her whole body was covered in fear, and she asked three questions in a row, but received no response.

Then, Goddess Freya had a flower in front of her eyes. In a trance, the figure flew towards her in an instant, flashing in front of her at a speed that surpassed her vision. There was only a slender silver trail on the blurred retina.

"It doesn't matter, I have the protection of the World Tree, no one can hurt me..."

Between the lightning and flint, she didn't have time to deal with it, she could only comfort herself like this.
