Farus's consciousness seemed to be in a deep sleep all the time, and Luya took a rough walk in the street to find out the direction of each street.
The road to Uptown was blocked and patrolled by guards, checking the identity of everyone who passed and registering their reasons for going. Ordinary people must be approved before they are allowed to pass, and the management is as strict as a prison.
However, the treatment of those nobles is different. They all have facial ID recognition, and they will be automatically released when they approach.
So dystopian, this dog is better than the place.
Luya sat outside the coffee shop near the checkpoint for a while, she ordered a cup of Americano, the bitter taste stimulated her tongue and kept her refreshed. She observed different people coming in and out of the checkpoint. The inside and outside of the checkpoint seemed to be two worlds. The noble ladies seemed to be unable to feel the changes in this world at all. They still wore noble western clothes, led well-cared-for pets, and went shopping together for entertainment. .
Lu Ya has been sitting here for a long time. She drank four or five cups of coffee slowly, and when the sun was setting, she finally reached her goal.
Liana's confidant manservant dug out from the slums, passed the inspection of the guards in the upper city, and sneaked out of the checkpoint with his head down.
Ah, here we come.
Luya finished the remaining coffee in the cup with a blank expression, put the money and tip on the bill, got up and followed silently.
Darby's name is Dabis Poole, and he used to be an ordinary middle-class family in Mipuyap Town.
Before the appearance of the Devil's Eye, Dabis's life had been happy and ordinary. The Poole family's auto repair shop was quite famous in the town.
Dabis lived in a villa at home, and went to a private school to receive an elite education since he was a child. He was a football quarterback in the school and had a relationship with a cheerleader. In the off days, I also go camping with my friends, or do sports.
There are countless brothers around Dabisi, and life is carefree. If there is no accident after graduation, he will probably stay in the small town, find a girl he loves, inherit his father's repair shop, and have a few more children to live a happy life. Ordinary and happy life of ordinary people.
His life, however, was completely ruined that day.
Accompanied by the fireball that appeared from the magic eye of the world, countless monsters fell on the town. In just an instant, the originally peaceful and beautiful town became a purgatory on earth. He was woken up by his parents in his deep sleep, and when he rushed to his girlfriend's house, what he saw was his girlfriend who had been disembowelled by monsters and had been dead for a long time.
And when he was fleeing, various accidents happened, and finally he was the only one who arrived in the capital of the empire.
Countless refugees flooded into the imperial capital. These people are not allowed to occupy the resources of the local people. Unless they are special talents, they will not be able to get decent jobs.
They were forced to live in slums and live a precarious life. Although he can get the same treatment as the locals by joining the army, he has no courage to go to the battlefield. The death of his parents and girlfriend left an indelible shadow on him. Whenever he thinks of all this, he will tremble so much that he cannot stand up.
He spent two years in the slums, working as a coolie at the lowest level. In the end, poverty and hunger made him let go of his dignity, and he reached out to the purse of a noble lady in a ecstasy.
When he was stealing, he was discovered by the lady unexpectedly.
"What are you doing?"
"!!"
It was a girl wearing a gorgeous western dress that was incompatible with this place, but her eyes did not look like a noble lady at all, and there was an indescribable viciousness in her eyes.
"You want to steal from me?"
"Yes, I'm sorry! Please forgive me..."
Dabis was so frightened that his legs went limp, he woke up instantly, knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy.
And the young and beautiful blonde girl didn't seem to intend to let him go, she seemed very angry, and tried her best to kick him viciously with the tip of her shoe.
"what!!"
Dabis, who was pierced sharply into his body, felt a sharp pain, but the girl seemed to be pleased, and kicked him again and again. He cried and begged for mercy, and his screams attracted the patrolling crowd. Imperial soldier.
"What happened!"
When the soldier came over, he saw the family crest pinned to the girl's chest, and immediately saluted her respectfully.
"It's Miss Derek, do you need help?"
It's over, Dabis thought desperately at that time.
He thought he would be sent to the Inquisition, exiled, or choose to be a coolie in a radiation factory, and then tragically die of festering. But I didn't expect the girl to stare at him for a while, and then suddenly burst into a weird smile.
"
Nothing, Mister Sheriff, I'm teaching my servants a lesson. "
"Are you sure?"
The soldier looked at Dabis suspiciously, and continued to say to the blonde girl, "You don't need to be afraid, our security team is nearby, if this person threatens you..."
"Yes, thank you for worrying about me, I was not threatened."
Liana lifted her skirt politely and saluted the soldier. Now that she said that, the soldier stared at Dabis who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and then turned and left slowly.
After a while, Dabis, who was still in shock, finally mustered up the courage to raise his head, looked at the beautiful and devil-like girl and asked.
"Why... you want to help me...?"
"It's nothing, it's just that you suddenly remind me of someone from the past..."
The blonde girl raised her chin proudly, and said condescendingly to him, "I've changed my mind, I can give you a chance."
Dabis didn't understand who the girl was talking about, but when he heard that the girl was going to give him a chance, he agreed almost without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, the person he met was the lady of the Earl's family, and the Earl's daughter changed her mind about him for some reason.
Originally, she planned to throw him into prison, but this impulsive theft became an opportunity for him to leave the slum.
The Earl's daughter gave him a chance, because he swore without hesitation that he would do anything. Even if it is despicable and shameful.
Dabis is very disturbed now. He is about to meet with Basaro, the deputy head of the crown prince's division. I don't know how the eldest lady contacted the deputy head of Bassaro, and the other party said that he would provide her with information about the crown prince.
He knew that Missy was going to take the initiative before the ball.
The news of the return of Crown Prince Zelos has been made public in the past two days, and he finally appeared in the news, dispelling the rumors of death.
People began to celebrate that the country was still saved, but for some reason, the emperor announced that he had temporarily stopped preparing for war and took back Zelos' military power.
There are many speculations, but what is certain is that His Royal Highness Zelos will stay in the city for a while. And the fact that the crown prince will choose the princess to marry has also been made public.
The invitations to the ball had already been sent to the hands of the nobles, and some nobles began to move around, trying to get personal information about the crown prince, especially his preferences. Even his travel plan, creating opportunities for his daughter to meet him by chance. But everyone around Zelos was tight-lipped, and no one dared to divulge any information.
Dabis was actually very surprised when Liana asked him to meet with Deputy Head Basaro.
He really couldn't figure out how the people around the Crown Prince would agree to such a request. Seriously speaking, this was an act of betrayal. If the Crown Prince with a distorted personality knew about it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
And in his opinion, it is crazy for those noble girls to want to become the concubine of His Highness Zelos... As a man, he dare not approach that Highness within 20 meters of him, and Zelos's aura is extremely special. It's scary, even if he is glanced at by the other party, he feels like his heart is about to freeze.
The reason why Deputy Head Basaro is willing to sell the information is unknown, and a person who is knowledgeable will not ask. The place where they met was an uninhabited area, and the other party was also well-dressed, with a hood covering his face. After giving him a note, he left quickly.
Dabis unfolded the note and glanced at it, suddenly showed a shocked expression, then hurried back to convey the news to Liana.
"His Royal Highness Zelos accuses His Royal Highness the Second Prince to be a human traitor who betrayed himself?! Is it true?"
"The specific situation is unknown, but I heard that the second prince Noyce pretended to be mediocre and incompetent, but in fact he secretly joined forces with certain forces. A group of third prince Zhu Jia betrayed the crown prince in the battle against the magic eye priest, which led to Zelos Your Highness's whereabouts were unknown during that time."
"There is such a thing, what is the emperor's reaction?"
"Your Majesty is obviously in a difficult situation. He has already lost a son, and he can't punish His Highness the Second Prince just by hearing His Highness the Crown Prince's accusation..."
"If you know what he wants, then there will be a breakthrough."
Liana tore the petals of the rose in her hand, and murmured thoughtfully, "The most feared thing is the person who wants nothing, making it impossible to get started, but once you have desire and purpose, it will be much easier to take him down." .”
…
Luya was eating bananas on the roof while listening to the conversation between Liana and the servant, feeling a bit boring.
It's all boring and boring information.
What she hates the most is those intrigues, and what time is it, the end of the different world will have palace fights, and the final extinction of human beings is all self-inflicted...
She intends to listen for a while, after all, there are many ways to kill this bitch now. The biggest reason why she hasn't sneaked into her room and broken her neck until now is that she doesn't want Liana to die so easily, it's a bit too easy and too cheap for her. And she is also very interested in the power behind Lianna, maybe she can catch a big fish.
But at this time, their topic changed again, and a new piece of information attracted her full attention.
"In addition, I also heard a piece of news."
Darbis lowered his voice and said cautiously, "The Black Knight captured a legendary dragon and sent it to the Imperial Research Institute, but it seems to have caused a plague, and a strange disease has spread. At present, the dragon has been quarantined for observation. , but still failed to stop the spread of the strange disease, it seems that all infected people will bleed black blood, and their organs will fail and die in a short time."
"What? Plague?"
Liana's face changed drastically when she heard the words, as if she remembered something, she became very nervous, "Will it spread to the city? Why do they want to study that monster!"
"I don't know... Master Basaro provided this information, but did not communicate with me. It may be to find a way to deal with the evil eye of the world... It is said that the dragon can repel that monster, but the point is that His Royal Highness Zelos applied took over the project, but was rejected by the emperor..."
"That eye is fine no matter what! Isn't the triple barrier of the empire very stable now? Those things don't matter right! It's impossible to defeat that kind of thing!"
Liana lost her temper on her own, and after the servant left in panic, she sat back on her bed, pulled out a gold-edged notepad from under the bed, and looked through it anxiously.
"A new prophecy has appeared... Wait, it's really about this plague..."
Liana's complexion gradually became unsightly, and she continued to mutter the contents of the notepad.
"Nearly half of the people in the empire will be infected with the plague. There is no cure for the disease, and people will die one after another. At this time, the girl who believes in the light conveys the will of God, and the people who have no faith in despair pray for the first time. Pray for God's forgiveness and deliverance... Do I have to..."
She suddenly felt a little cold all over, and put down the book with a solemn expression.
This is the prophecy book given to her by the man she met on the airship. At different times, it reminds her what to do.
It's just that the difficulty of this matter is a bit too high.
The author has something to say: Someone wants to ask if the other dragons can also conquer? In fact, it can, including the evil dragon.
But it depends on the initial krypton gold to draw cards. For nothing, the red dragon and the magic dragon are drawn by default. The drop rate of the evil dragon is 1%, and the drop rate of Bahamut is 5‰.
