Chapter 518 (1/2)
”It's all right. The kingdom will protect you.” Deep underground, in a prison room, Lyon and his retinue are rescuing rat men from the walls. The net worm thought for a moment, and joined them. The only thing left was the mantra crow and Carus standing at the exit of the room, watching Gloria, who was still very weak, silently looking at the scene.
However, different from the magicians, part of the attention of the demons is always on the other creatures in the room. They are a group of golden and black millipedes. Unlike the centipedes who have fought before, this kind of insects have thicker crustaceans, and their sickle like mouthparts do not look like the frightful centipedes, but when they raise their bodies and reveal the same sharp toes It's not much worse.
”I don't believe witches will keep their promises. No matter what kind of deal you make with her. ” Carus gently threw his dagger into the air and caught it firmly in the backhand. He had a hunch that the weapon that had been with him for many years would not return to its sheath without blood. What's more, he didn't trust the curse crow completely. No one knew the deal between the wizard and the witch except for the two of them. Who knows if he betrayed other members of the team for his own benefit.
However, the magician obviously did not intend to dispel the worries of his companions. With a noncommittal smile on his face, he looked at the killer, ”I'm really curious. You're only involved in these things because of the friendship between Archduke richhammer and the king of this country in your early years, and that's all, you're going to fight for your own life? It's not quite the same as what I think of as a mob. ”
With a sneer, Carus put the tip of the dagger on the tip of his forefinger, keeping the blade straight and balanced. ”Wizard, this is where you are arrogant. You are too used to using your own experience and speculation to measure a person, to his race, identity, to guess his psychology
”Oh? Is that wrong? I always think this is the most reasonable and simple way. And it turns out that I'm always right. ” The curse crow raised its eyebrows, and did not seem to accept the view of the demon. It has always been a wizard's best practice to calculate the will of an individual from a huge base.
”Most of the time, you're right, even very right. But, ”said Carus, lifting his index finger, his dagger leaping up in the air, and being caught in the air, pointed at a millipede that was too close, who seemed to feel a silent threat and immediately backed away.” there are always some different species among so many individuals. If you meet them, you'll make mistakes, and you'll be flustered by surprise, like me. I'm a demon, but I found myself very early
”Very reasonable, quite reasonable.” The crow said and nodded, as if in agreement with Carus. ”It seems that I'd better hope that I don't meet a few different people like you, so that I can make fewer mistakes.” The tone of grey robe was full of sarcasm and disdain, and he even laughed at the end.
This reflection naturally caused the demon to be displeased, but just as he was about to ask what the wizard meant, a scream came out of the room.
”Damn it, this guy is starving. He wants to bite me!” Buckram pressed his hands on the arm of a rat man and pushed him against the wall with his feet. The mouth of the latter, which was drooling, was closing quickly within a palm of the ELF's face. The Murman's muddy eyes contained only bloody desire.
”Of course he wants to bite you, because that guy is a native rat man.” The magician replied lazily, glancing at the millipedes. ”It seems that our witches didn't sort out the captives carefully. And now we don't have a rope to tie them. We can't do it. Kill them. ” He said, his eyes began to flash magic light.
