"Victoria."

Chapter 42 Friends and foes

"Victoria—"

This was an answer that Aila found somewhat unexpected. With all the equipment, that girl could indeed be regarded as a fairly good fighting force, but when she thought about what the other party had done, she would feel very awkward.

It was one thing while at sea and quite another now.At that time, Victoria could be said to choose to make a move in order to protect herself, but now?

"Do you think she's manageable?"

To be honest, this proposal made Ayla's heart beat, if Fittili could have any reason to convince Ayla that Victoria was manageable.

"For now, yes, I promise."

Ella looked up and stared into the other person's amber eyes, and for the first time she noticed the changes in Fetili during this period of time.Her long platinum-blonde hair was tied into a neat ponytail. The girl's face lost some color but looked calmer.

A high-ranking filthy vampire?Bank shareholders in Paris?The best-selling author, or that art-loving and somewhat dissolute lothario?Or perhaps the rebels who fled Enoch.

These disguises or outpourings of true feelings are mixed together and become difficult to identify.Ella felt that she could no longer see through this guy who once had a simple personality.

"You seem to be hiding something from me...but forget it, I'm willing to trust your judgment."

Feitili smiled easily.

"Relax - I'm on your side, remember, we made a vow."

-

Ten minutes later, the rest of the delegation arrived at Balan Village under the guidance of the villagers.

The wounded were temporarily placed in relatively intact buildings, and the rest of the mission began to build new buildings on their own using wood and magic-generated earth walls.With the blessing of magic, they could double the original number of buildings as a temporary stronghold in less than half a day.

It is worth mentioning that the villagers were not surprised by the magic used by the wizard group. Compared with the outside world, this is a place where mystery is more common.This is quite normal. People who live with hunger, curses and even monsters every day, who cannot adapt to the status quo, have long since died.

Ella blinked, and she noticed that Hyde on the stretcher was obviously a lot shorter than before they were separated last time. The coat that originally fit perfectly was now used as a blanket.

Hyde's appearance reminded the girl of what she had seen in the temple on Tangerang Island, when he was a child.

"You don't need to comfort me, that kind of words can be regarded as an insult to me."

In this state, no matter what Hyde said, he was not as convincing as usual. If he thought about it rudely, he was like a stubborn little boy now.

However, from Ella's aesthetic point of view, Hyde's current appearance is much more pleasing to the eye than usual.The girl touched his head in a rare way, and said seriously:

"It's better to keep it like this, don't grow up anymore."

"?"

Hyde's face darkened, before he could speak, Ling patted his shoulder again, and added another sentence with a smile:

"That's right, don't worry and leave the matter to the big sisters, we'll go and bring back the old woman you like."

"What are you talking about?"

Hyde was completely confused by this unfounded statement.

"I remember someone asked Shadow to go to a restaurant for a date without our backs?"

The blond boy felt like he was holding a breath in his chest and couldn't let it out. He recalled what Straw once said, the beginning of a lie needs countless lies to cover it up.

He couldn't explain how he felt at the time. Telling the truth of that day under such circumstances was worse than letting him die.

"Ah...that's right, don't you think she is very attractive?"

After several years of training, Hyde's face could be as thick as a city wall at certain times, and he admitted his "love affair" without changing his face.However, after actually saying this, the young man felt a little nervous. He almost didn't think much about the expensive spiritual ascension ritual that Kumi's puppet used - a thought that made Hyde's face turn green for a moment. .

i won't really...

Thoughts were interrupted by a burst of pain, and Ling twisted his immature face mercilessly. Although Hyde's real age was actually a little older than them, everyone ignored this on purpose and bullied him recklessly. He looks like this.

"Obviously he's just a brat——"

"Wait, when did this happen, how come I don't know at all?"

Ella felt as if she had missed some important event and was completely outside the situation.

After a moment of silence, the three of them laughed relaxedly.Even the gloom hidden between Hyde's brows has dissipated a lot. In fact, no matter how he behaves on the outside, this incident cannot have no impact on him.

"You all have to come back intact, and take that idiot doll with you."

Hyde waved his hand and continued to rest on the soil bed

Ling gave a thumbs up and left the house with Ella.

Ella met the lost Mr. Fiennes outside the building. He had been listless since Hyde's blood power weakened, as if he was not interested in anything.

"Mr. Fiennes."

"You have to pay attention to Veer Famini. Even though we are on the same page now, she is still very dangerous. For Hyde's safety, you need to pay attention to her movements..."

"The side effects of that ritual may not be irreparable. Maybe we can go to Mr. Dmitry to find a solution after we return to Paris."

After listening to this, the old man just nodded silently, and Ella was not sure if the other party had listened to what she said, so she decided to say the same thing to Schiff again before setting off.

"You are looking for me."

Victoria's figure appeared in front of the building in the center of the village. She looked a little shy, not at all like the serial murderer fanatic she used to be.

Even though Fittili had already given some simple explanations on the way, Victoria still showed a surprised expression after seeing the repeating rifle, the whole box of enchanted silver bullets, and even the gemstone crown placed in the satin.

"Is this really good?"

She didn't seem to object to this kind of work, but it was hard to understand how Ella and the others had fully armed themselves.

"Maybe I'll shoot you in the back."

Ella's tone was calm.

"This is our mutual decision...but don't get me wrong, Miss Victoria, the person we can trust is Fitili."

"Miss Fetili..."

Victoria Milusel repeated in a low voice,

"Her words, this is a matter of course."

The thin girl picked up the heavy multi-barrel repeating rifle, put it into her dirty and greasy robe, and followed the team without saying a word.

The mortal enemies who once fought each other moved in the same direction in this strange atmosphere. ----Dividing line------

Because I have been busy looking for a house these days, broke up and prepared to move, so I have been delaying the update of the two hundred monthly tickets promised, and the content updated every day is a bit small... The author is not a pigeon, he should make up for it. Will make up for it soon

Chapter 43 Clan

The weather at the edge of the forest has stabilized a lot. Fitili mentioned that they killed two Wendigos and seriously injured a Wendigo in the encounter. From the situation of Hyde and the others, Shadow should have also dealt with the injuries during the pursuit. third head.

"So she disappeared after killing the Wendigo... I asked Nosferatu, this person has lived in Balan Village for almost ten years, and he said that the Forest of Silence is the best. The dangerous things are those man-eating monsters."

"I don't think ordinary monsters can deal with the shadow, let alone she is not a creature at all. I can't think of a reason why Wendigo would attack her."

Ayla was the last of the four.

In terms of observing the environment and even finding clues, the other three have unique talents that are beyond her reach.

On the other hand, Victoria's every move in the center can also be observed from this position.

"There is a picture of Enoch in the clues you divined. Could it be that the filthy blood did something?"

Ling jumped down from a treetop, and she and Feitili were at the front. They were both very good at close combat and could more easily protect themselves in emergencies.

"Balan Village is the closest stronghold to the forest. If the nobles of Enoch City pass by here, we will not fail to notice...unless they are willing to go around a big circle and turn back from the other direction."

Ella said this.What's more, the dirty bloods in Enoch City should have no reason to take action against the envoys, and even if they had, they shouldn't have used this method that seemed to have been planned for a long time.

But she thought of the city she saw in the divination, and finally frowned and added:

"Okay... I'll keep an eye on it, and it's necessary to tell the rest of the envoy. If the shadow's disappearance is really caused by those dirty blood, maybe we can try to get her back through negotiation .”

Based on this relationship, Ling guessed without reason:

"Perhaps those people think so. If someone really leaks our information, Enoch's people may increase their bargaining chips for the next negotiation. Thinking like this can explain why they took action against the single shadow. gone."

"You are just inferring the process based on the results. It lacks evidence and objective thinking. It is not trustworthy reasoning. This would not be convincing to readers if it were used in a novel."

As a best-selling novelist in Paris, Fittili commented on Ling's reasoning.

"Although I don't have a good impression of those old and smelly guys in the castle, I don't think this thing is done by them. Based on my childhood impression, I don't think Enoch's efficiency will be so high."

She walked slowly on the snow and said slowly.

"It seems that I haven't told you about it yet... After walking on this land, I gradually recalled some things from the past."

"Enoch's interior is not monolithic. Apart from the queen who symbolizes the highest status, Enoch's decision-making layer is actually a parliament composed of representatives of various clans."

Feitili's statement is a bit suspicious. She seems to have recalled too many old things after arriving in Node. Even if the old land stimulates Fetili's memory, the information she knows now is really different from what she knew in Paris. too much.

"clan?"

Ella ignored some abnormalities in Fitili because she noticed this keyword. Mr. Nosferatu also mentioned the so-called clan when he first met her a day ago.

"Then you and...Niles should be from the Cain clan?"

Fitili shook his head,

"Enoch did not have a clan that could be called Cain. The so-called clan refers to the first thirteen children of the ancestors and their descendants and subjects. This does not refer to a family with a certain surname. You know the dirty The transformation of blood species does not necessarily have to be through reproductive behavior, so there may not be a blood relationship between the same clan - for example, it is more similar to the model in which your wizards are divided into different pantheons because of their magic attributes."

"Nils and I belong to the Toledo clan, and Cain was named after Queen Enoch. Since he and I showed the highest bloodline, Cain has replaced our original surname."

Ella probably understood a little bit, so she asked,

"Do you still remember what clans there are in Xuexue, or what their characteristics are."

Fitili shook his head and said:

"It's been so long that I can only remember a few... What I want to say is that the decision-making level of the Bloody Blood is composed of a group of clan leaders who have their own evil intentions. They are at least divided based on friendly relations. There are more than four different parties, and we have been here for less than three days. It is impossible for them to reach a consensus so quickly and organize a force that can defeat Miss Shadow silently."
