After Xi Ning got up the next day, the system truthfully told him what Lin An did last night.
The system didn't see Lin An crushing the sound transmission stone, thinking that he was taking Xi Ning while sleeping, and hid it quietly.
He took away the sound transmission stone, probably because he did not want Xi Ning to contact the elves in the Cliff Valley Forest, but why did Lin An do this? Although the system is silent at ordinary times, it feels that Lin An is a little bit wrong these past few days.
Xi Ning found her own storage ring, but did not see the sound transmission stone.
The two of them were sleeping in the same bed every day. He didn't want to guess, he planned to ask Lin An directly.
After Xi Ning had breakfast, he followed Lin An, who had packed up the tableware, into the kitchen, watching him clean up the tableware with cleaning techniques at the door, and put them back in the cabinet one by one.
Lin An set the dinner plate, came over and bent over and hugged him: "Seeing you didn't eat much in the morning, it doesn't suit your appetite?"
"I can't eat it, I didn't sleep well last night," Xi Ning said deliberately, and she saw a slight change in the expression on Lin An's face, "Why did you not sleep last night?"
Lin An couldn't explain it, so she coaxed him in a low voice: "I can't sleep... I was wrong, and I will never wake you up in the future."
He led Xi Ning to the hall, and Xi Ning said, "I remember you still took something from my storage ring. When I went downstairs in the morning, I found that my sound transmission stone was missing."
Lin An paused, turned around and opened his mouth, unable to explain for a while.
He didn't know the existence of the system, thinking he had been discovered by Xi Ning, and Xi Ning's face was rarely serious, as if he was very angry.
Lin An felt regretful. He shouldn’t have gone to the basement last night, let alone crushed Xi Ning’s sound transmission stone. At the same time, there seemed to be another voice in his mind saying that he should have known this way, he should use spells first. Xi Ning fell asleep completely.
Now that Xi Ning already knows, will he be disappointed in himself? Obviously they all showed their hearts to each other, and he still secretly did this kind of thing.
Lin An lowered his head and said nothing, Xi Ning kicked him on the toes: "Did you take it?"
"It's me." When Lin An raised his head, the cyan meridians on his face calmed down. He grabbed Xi Ning's arm with a bit of strength, "Ningning..."
Xi Ning sighed, pushed Lin An to sit down on the sofa, and squeezed his cheeks hard: "You said you, what are you thinking about all day long? Why are you secretly taking my stone?"
Lin An's face was slightly deformed, whether it hurts or not, but he hoped that Xi Ning would work harder, maybe he would not be so angry after venting his emotions.
He kissed Xi Ning's lips in this position, only daring to touch them gently: "Ningning... Don't leave me."
Xi Ning let go and guessed: "Are you afraid I will go back, so I took the stone?"
This is not the most direct reason, but Lin An acquiesced.
When Xi Ning watched him not speak, Lin An began to feel flustered. He would rather Xi Ning lose his temper at him than let him be so silent.
Lin An tightened his arms around Xi Ning and whispered, "I was wrong."
Where is he wrong? If he can have an upright identity and a normal face, he is also willing to go back to Yagu Forest with Xi Ning to see where he grew up and the people who accompanied him before.
He remembered that the forest elves didn't like going out, but Xi Ning could take him around if he wanted to.
The gloomy color in Lin An's lowered eyes became thicker, suddenly his lips warmed, and Xi Ning slowly kissed him, while whispering, "Are you stupid?"
Xi Ning stepped back, her eyes serious: "I won't leave you, no matter what happens."
He wanted to take Lin An back with him. If Lin An is unwilling now, it’s not too late to talk about it when there is a chance in the future. In Xi Ning’s mind, Lin An is the first important thing, and the second is the task. It's someone else.
"I'm not angry, I'm just worried about you. If you have something to hide, tell me, OK?" Xi Ning said slowly, lying in front of Lin An and touching his nose and lips, and then leaned forward. A kiss, "I love you the most, no one can compare to you."
Lin An's throat was dry, and he carefully met Shang Xi Ning's gaze: "Really?"
Xi Ning patiently said, "Of course it is true."
Lin An immediately wanted to tell Xi Ning what was in the basement now, Xi Ning suddenly straightened up, raised his hand to unbutton his coat, and grabbed Lin An's hand from his clothes and stuck it to his heart.
Xi Ning blushed and asked, "Did you feel it?"
The skin under his palm was delicate and smooth, and a fast heartbeat came all at once, Lin An's brain was blank, and he couldn't look away.
Xi Ning ironed his heart and teased him, leaning close to his ear and said: "You can touch it again, okay?"
Lin An was sane and dared not to make too many moves, Xi Ning simply threw away the remaining clothes.
He didn't know what Lin An was still thinking about, but he didn't want to wait any longer. Only if he was more active could he stop Lin An from thinking about it.
Lin An hugged Xi Ning, almost blank in his brain: "Ningning..."
The lights in the hall were also on during the day, so that the already bright room could be seen more clearly, Xi Ning put aside his shyness, and started to untie Lin An's clothes: "I want to fuck you!"
The two of them didn't return to the bedroom, they just spent the morning on the sofa in the lobby, and even missed lunch.
Lin An was worried that Xi Ning would be hungry, so she stopped to ask Xi Ning if she wanted something to eat.
But Xi Ning still wanted to tease him, clutching his stomach: "Why are you hungry? It's all here..."
Lin An couldn't stand it, and ignoring Xi Ning's begging for mercy, pressed him to continue, and didn't take him to the bathroom until late in the afternoon.
Xi Ning fell asleep in the bathroom, and heard Lin An say in his ear: "I love you too."
That night Lin An didn't go to the basement again, nor did he sense the call of Black Mist. He slept well for the first time in so long.
When the two of them packed up and went downstairs, Lin An still hadn't had time to tell the basement. Someone came outside the tower.
Two days after the group leader received Xi Ning's note, they finally reached the edge of the woods, and the magic tower stood in the center of the grass.
The group stopped and were discussing whether to go straight ahead or arrange for manpower to test the magic tower's attack power first.
The dwarf never participated in these discussions. When he was observing the terrain by the woods and looking at the magic tower, he saw sharply that the window on the second floor of the magic tower was opened. Isn't it Xi Ning who stood at the window
He widened his eyes and exclaimed, "His Royal Highness!"
"What?" The captain turned his head to look, got up and looked in the direction he was pointing, and he saw Xi Ning who was standing at the window, because he was far away, vaguely saw Xi Ning waved at them.
"Hurry! Hurry up! His Royal Highness must have seen us and is asking for help!" The dwarf was very excited, and he took out his magic scepter and was about to rush over. The leader carried his clothes and dragged him back by the collar.
"What hurry, don't you go straight to death like this?" The head of the group helped him to advance to the team and waited. "You can only see the shadow of the individual so far. What if it is a trap?"
Qiu Nian didn't say a word and raised his brows. If he didn't guess wrong, the head of the group said that the person who was looking for was this "His Royal Highness".
The people in their team were magicians and warriors without faction, and they often wandered everywhere. Most of them had seen elves, so they were not too surprised to hear the words of the dwarves.
There should be no guards around the magic tower. There should be only the dark magician inside. Qiu Nian came here to hunt for treasures. There was nothing valuable along the way, and no one in the inner layer was able to fight. World of Warcraft, has long been idle with hard bones and hair.
He slowly raised his hand, a purple transparent barrier enveloped his body, walked directly out of the woods, and entered the attackable range of the magic tower.
The group leader failed to stop people, seeing him standing on the grass safely, and the magic tower did not move, and tried to walk out.
Qiu Nian became the person leading the way. While supporting the barrier, he walked forward while holding the magic wand ready to fight. As he got closer and closer to the magic tower, the door under the tower opened with a creak.
Xi Ning had been waiting for them upstairs a long time ago. It was indeed him who waved at the window. He was sure that the group leader should see themselves.
There is no way to communicate at this distance, Xi Ning took Lin An downstairs: "Let's go to the door."
Lin An put on the mask, followed Xi Ning to the lobby, saw him open the door, but did not stop.
The group leader walked in front, getting closer and closer to the magic tower. Xi Ning opened the door at this time, and a familiar face came out from the door.
He smiled and waved to everyone: "Long time no see."
"His Royal Highness!" The dwarf yelled and wanted to run towards him, but was caught by the captain again.
The group stopped and stood still, the head of the group looked around Xi Ning, and Lin An appeared at the door wearing a mask.
It was he who took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness to take Xi Ning away, and the people in the team saw Lin Anjun with an eye-catching expression.
Qiu Nian also saw Xi Ning's appearance clearly. He had sharp ears. He was an elf, but he had silver hair and green eyes. If he remembered correctly, this was an extremely rare forest elf.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a while, and the head of the group coughed slightly, and took the lead to break the calm: "Your Highness, are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Xi Ning shook his head, "I wrote a letter two days ago and sent it over. Have you received it?"
That letter was really written by Xi Ning? The rest of the people, including the group leader, were very skeptical. The group leader tried to ask: "I have received it, but we have never seen the handwriting of His Highness, so..."
They really didn't believe it, Xi Ning smiled apologetically: "It makes you worry, I'm really fine."
There were some strange faces in the team. Xi Ning recognized Qiu Nian who was walking in the front, but he didn't care too much. He looked back a few times and didn't find Filo.
"Have Your Majesty Fero gone back?" Xi Ning asked the head of Xiang, "Red Shuanghua should be sent back together, too?"
The head of the delegation replied: "Yes, your Majesty has left with flowers since... You have disappeared and asked us to retrieve you safely."
"I won't go back for the time being," Xi Ning leaned against Lin An, "I'm safe now. Just go back and talk to His Majesty Filo for me."
The dwarf was so careless that he couldn't help but pointed at Lin An and said, "His Royal Highness, he is the one I told you, the evil magician! You are not safe by his side!"
Lin An's eyes sink slightly. He has been emotionally unstable recently. Hearing this dwarf has the urge to kill him directly in the past, the next moment he felt a warm hand stretched out and held him.
When so many people looked at him, they were still unfamiliar. Xi Ning was still a little bit embarrassed, with red ear tips: "I know, but he won't be what he used to be now, and... I voluntarily followed him back. ."
"Volunteer?" The dwarf was incredulous, his voice raised several times, "This is the most false lie I have ever heard in my life! Your Royal Highness, tell me, did this man force you to say that?"
Not only him, but the people present didn't believe it, and they whispered to each other, and the group leader didn't say anything.
Xi Ning pursed her lips: "It's true, why did I lie to you, can't I like him?"
When he said this, it sounded even more incredible in the eyes of others, unless Lin An's face was also disguised, and many people even showed mockery. If Lin An's appearance would be fine, then would he be too? Can Xiao think about the elves
Lin An looked at the reactions of these people coldly, raised his hand and took off the mask.
Just like the ugly appearance at the beginning, half of his face was normal, and the other half of his face looked like a ghost in the blue sky and white sun. Even the knowledgeable Qiu Nian and others frowned.
Xi Ning turned her head too far: "Why are you..."
Lin An squeezed Xi Ning's chin sideways and kissed him on his lips.
They are very close, and they are very familiar with each other. Xi Ning knows why Lin An is doing this, and he embraces him obediently in response, and kisses in front of a group of people outside the door.
There is no doubt about the beauty of the elves, and Lin An's profile face facing the crowd contrasted sharply with Xi Ning. It was different from ordinary people's terrifying and hideous face, making him look like an evil demon who was sullying the holy gods.
After everyone was surprised, they realized that Lin An was provoking them.
Xi Ning's raised cuff slipped, and the sharp-eyed people also found some red marks on the skin exposed on his wrist. It is not difficult to think of what he experienced after being taken away by Lin An.
The group of people outside was even more angry, Qiu Nian saw that they wanted to kill Lin An but didn't dare to step forward, smiled slightly, and raised a group of thunder element spirit energy to attack Lin An directly.
As he got closer to his destination, Qiu Nian found that the leader was concealing himself and the others when discussing everything with his men, but they were only temporary partners and only cooperated for a short time.
Now that he has arrived at the destination, the other party naturally can't control what he wants to do.
Qiu Nian's shot caught everyone unprepared, and his aura flew towards Lin An at a high speed, Xi Ning's pupils shrank slightly, and he subconsciously blocked Lin An.
When it was one meter away from the magic tower gate, the spirit group hit a transparent barrier, and then disappeared.
Lin An's face was calm, he hugged Xi Ning's waist from behind, and kissed his sharp ears with his head tilted: "Don't be afraid, they can't hurt me."
He used his spiritual power so that everyone present could hear him. Xi Ning was in shock, Lin An led him to the tower, and the door was heavily closed.
The group leader had a bad foreboding. He raised his head and saw that several launch pads appeared above the magic tower at some unknown time, with pitch-black openings pointed in their direction.
After cutting off the outside view, Lin An was not as calm as he was just now, holding Xi Ning's hand trembling: "What were you doing just now?"
Xi Ning didn't understand, so he said blankly: "What's the matter?"
Lin An hugged Xi Ning tightly, feeling his body temperature, and exhaled: "I'll be fine, don't do this again in the future."
Xi Ning only realized what he was talking about, and still had lingering fears: "Why did that person suddenly start, I clearly said it clearly."
"His purpose is this tower," Lin An led Xi Ning into it, "Don't worry, they can't get close here."
Since the head of the regiment chose to cooperate with Qiu Nian, Lin An would not show mercy to his men. If they are interested, they should leave early.
Xi Ning heard the slight movement outside and vaguely guessed something: "Then they..."
Lin An threw the mask on the table and said mildly, "I have said everything that should be said, so I don't need to talk nonsense to them."
Xi Ning thought of the reaction of those people just now and was a little uncomfortable, and silently nodded: "Okay."
The group leader has led people to retreat from the vicinity of the magic tower. As long as they enter the woods, they will not be within the attack range of the magic tower.
"What were you doing just now? Do you know how to do it so hastily..."
Qiu Nian interrupted the group leader: "Sorry, I remember the original agreement, just find the magic tower together."
He stood up, smiled and said, "You don't want to do it, that's your business."
The head was speechless, Qiu Nian's people were all good at strength. He didn't want to have any conflict with the other side, so he turned his head and returned to his team.
Qiu Nian greeted the people again: "Come on, discuss how to attack."
After the group leader settled down here, he discussed whether or not to leave.
Although they couldn't believe what Xi Ning said just now, they all saw Qiu Nian's subconscious reaction at the moment when Qiu Nian attacked Lin An.
The dwarf cried: "No, does the elf really like him? I don't believe it..."
The head twitched his mouth: "Even if you don't like him, I won't like you. Why are you so excited?"
"I think we should leave directly," a mercenary said, "what's the matter after tossing for so long?"
Others did not agree to go back, believing that Xi Ning was forced: "His Majesty Ferro said when he was leaving, let us take His Highness the Elf back safely. If Lin An is not guilty, he can definitely go with us."
"Let's go together? Then you go to persuade him?" The group leader glanced at the man, but the group leader was even more worried. It was Qiu Nian and his party who came with them.
If they really leave like this, what if Qiu Nian breaks through the magic tower and it is not good for Xi Ning? Xi Ning's purpose in coming to avoid the forest is red frost, he is the queen's savior.
Ferro paid them a lot. Almost everyone knew that their mercenary group was hired by the king. If Xi Ning had an accident, the reputation of the mercenary group would be secondary. It would be bad if Ferro blamed it.
The head of the regiment quickly made a decision, quietly telling everyone to keep an eye on Qiu Nian and the group, and attack them when necessary.
In the evening, the two teams rested separately, and they each arranged a night watch. The leader was asleep, awakened by the cold touch on his neck.
He opened his eyes, and Qiu Nian squatted beside him with a short knife, and all the people who watched the night passed out in a coma.
Except for some guards left by Fero, the members of the mercenary group were centered on the group leader. Qiu Nian was too lazy to talk nonsense with these people, and simply hijacked the group leader directly, wanting the remaining mercenaries to do things for him.
They were with each other all the way, and they were quite familiar with each other. Even though the head of the group said to stare at Qiu Nian, the people under his team did not take any precautions for a while, making Qiu Nian easy to do.
The head secretly said to the effect, calmly said: "You want to kill me?"
Qiu Nian smiled and said: "Why am I willing to kill you? We are not manpowered enough, can you do me a favor?"
Xi Ning was still worried, went to the attic several times and found that the head of the group had not left.
Lin An didn't want him to pay too much attention to the people outside, so he simply locked the attic and kept him away from the windows.
"I said, leave them alone."
Lin An's expression was very bad, and Xi Ning was silent after finishing speaking, and then calmed down a little: "As long as you don't get close to the magic tower, you won't be attacked unless they die by themselves."
The people outside disturbed the black mist, and it began to call Lin An again and again. Lin An didn't want to go to the basement, and his emotions became more and more unstable under patience.
Xi Ning was also afraid that the tower would not be able to withstand many attacks, and worried: "They have so many people, if they are besieged..."
"Don't be afraid, it won't."
Lin An repeated it again in a low voice, as if muttering to herself: "No, if... just kill it."
Xi Ning didn't hear what he said in the next sentence. Lin An added a noise barrier and took Xi Ning downstairs to make food for him like an okay person.
When Xi Ning took a nap after dinner, Lin An went to the basement alone.
The black mist state is very mad, and has been chanting angrily: "Let me out, kill all these people who broke in..."
"I can solve these people without you." Lin An was still calm, indifferent to the lock on the cage.
"Are you sure?" The Black Mist laughed a few times, "What if? There are a lot of them? The tower was breached. It's okay for them to kill you. What about the person you hid?"
Perceiving a change in Lin An’s mood, Hei Wu was even more energetic: "They came here to take away all your things, including this tower, and your people. If he falls into the hands of others, he will die happily. , He may suffer all the time, and he will be hung upside down on a tree to slowly drain his blood..."
There was a harsh sound as the cage rubbed the ground, and Lin An stretched his hand into the cage to pinch the black mist: "Shut up."
Hei Wu immediately acknowledged it, trembling in Lin An's hand, but when he was not paying attention, he quietly separated a wisp of mist and penetrated Lin An's arm into his body.
Lin An's right cheek hurt. He retracted his hand and touched his face. The pain quickly disappeared, and the cyan meridians on his face seemed to become thinner.
Hei Wu didn't speak any more, Lin An closed his eyes, calmed the chaotic thoughts in his mind, turned and left the basement.
When he returned to the bedroom, Xi Ning was still asleep, and the movement outside the tower fell silent at this time. Those people didn't know if they were kicked back, or they stopped temporarily looking for other ways.
Lin An stood by the window and looked at it for a while, and quickly closed the window tightly.
When the sky was getting dark, Qiu Nian ordered his men to start to act.
The launching port on the magic tower is dense, and the launch pad will be activated according to the number of people detected. When it stops, the protective barrier outside the tower will cover the entire tower. If you want to attack the launch pad from outside the range, it is simply Dreaming.
Qiu Nian thought of another way. He first asked a mercenary to walk out of the woods, and he took a handful and stood on the edge of the woods. While the launch pad was activated, the arrow with spiritual power on the top flew towards the launch port. go with.
If more than one person stepped into the range, it would affect the direction of the launch port, and only this light weight could have a longer range. Qiu Nian tried weapons with stronger firepower before, but they couldn't get close to the launch pad.
The mercenary couldn't resist the magic tower's attack. He fell to the ground and vomited blood into a coma. A companion hurriedly pulled him back. At the same time, he accurately shot one of the launch ports. There was a muffled noise in the distance, a few strands of black. Smoke emanated from the slowly hanging launch port.
Qiu Nian said excitedly: "It's done!"
As long as he destroys the launch pad on this side, he will have a chance to get close to the magic tower, and he waved his hand to signal the next mercenary to come out.
The head of the regiment was tied to a tree trunk, and the poisoned dagger was facing his neck. Qiu Nian's people cast a spell on him so that he could not move or talk. He could only use his eyes to signal the mercenary group to leave it alone. he.
The mercenary appointed by Qiu Nian looked at the leader, gritted his teeth and walked out with a shield.
This time Qiu Nian shot the wrong way. Fortunately, the mercenary came back quickly and was not seriously injured.
Qiu Nian gave a regretful "tsk", turned his head and said gently: "Go, try again."
He used this method to continuously destroy a small half of the launch pad on the right side of the magic tower, and the mercenary group was also killed and injured.
Xi Ning in the tower was still asleep, Lin An beside him opened his eyes in the dark and sat up.
