"Has your memory recovered?" Regnar looked at the girl in front of him and couldn't help asking a very idiotic question.

Yes, the girl in front of him was not Sarah's daughter, the half-elf Irene, but Annelotte. After the battle between Regnar and Angelista, Regnar learned from Link the danger of this trip to the Underdark. Therefore, no matter from which angle you consider it, Irene, whose combat ability is not as good as Inelise, definitely cannot continue to go with Regnar to see her mother.

For this reason, Regnar had no choice but to ask Annelotte for help.

Fortunately, Annelotte gave Regnar another space gem before he left. The Frost Girl anticipated the cunning of the dark elves and the dangers of the Underdark, so she hurriedly made a space gem and gave it to Regnar, asking him to use it to summon her when he encountered trouble that he could not handle.

After all, this time it was about Irene's life, so after much thought, Regnar decided to call Annelotte over to discuss countermeasures.

After learning the ins and outs of the matter, Annelotte simply proposed that she should disguise herself as Irene to handle matters in the Underdark. She is much stronger than Regnar, so there is no need to worry about safety.

Regnar disagreed at first, and he didn't think Annelotte's disguise could fool all the dark elves.

But Annelotte's attitude was extremely tough, and she ensured that she could perfectly disguise herself as a half-elf, both in appearance and ability.

After the two argued for a long time, Annelotte couldn't help but threaten to use force. In the end, Regnar, who was afraid of the Frost Maiden's power, had no choice but to agree. After the two of them sent Irene back to Merindl and made certain arrangements, they woke up Angelista and her entourage.

Angelista was naturally dissatisfied with being manipulated by Regnar at first. Just when Regnar wanted to use some means to threaten this crazy woman, Annelotte came forward.

What the Frost Girl did was very simple. She and Angelista had a low-level spell contest. The so-called low-level spell contest refers to a battle in which two mages are only allowed to compete with spells below level three. This type of combat is mainly of a sparring nature and tests the mages' understanding and application ability of magic.

Naturally, Annelotte defeated Angelista. And this woman was surprisingly straightforward. She obeyed Annelotte's arrangements and even used instructions to restrain herself to show her determination to admit defeat.

After arranging Angelista, Regnar woke up Link, and then asked Link to take him to meet Britney secretly. But until now, Regner has not told Britney the identity of Annelotte. This is one of his trump cards, and he will not choose to reveal it unless absolutely necessary.

"How is that possible?" Annelotte, who was disguised as Irene, turned slightly red. She stammered and asked, "Is there anything strange about me?"

"..." Regnar's eyes flashed with intense disappointment, but soon his eyes lit up again. Regnar smiled at Annelotte: "No, it's just that you used to have that expression sometimes, which made me a little excited for a moment."

"The me before..." Annelotte was silent for a moment. She looked at Regnar and felt a little panicked in her heart. This feeling is very rare for the Frost Girl who has always been able to calmly control everything. Annelotte bit her lower lip, and then asked: "Hey!"

"Huh?" Regnar didn't seem to notice the change in Annelotte's heart at this time. He scratched his head like a madman, and then he was a little confused.

"..." Annelotte held it in for a long time, and finally blushed and stammered: "I... I know you... you like me!"

"Yes." Regnar admitted simply and calmly.

"Don't interrupt!" Annelotte suddenly barked like an angry kitten. Although they look like Irene, these two girls are both stunningly beautiful, and they are equally cute when angry.

"Oh..." Regnar shrank his neck habitually.

"Don't get me wrong! Although I asked these things, I am not interested in you!" Annelotte quickly explained, but it always made Regna feel like there was no silver in this place.

"..." Regnar didn't care about Annelotte's excuse as if she was admitting it. He already knew Annelotte's character.

"I... what I want to ask is..." Annelotte gritted her teeth, and then said: "What I want to ask is... I want to ask you, do you like me before, or do you like me before and now..."

"How's everything going?" Regnar asked knowingly.

Annoyance flashed across Annelotte's silver-grey eyes, and she almost gritted her teeth and said, "You all like it?"

"..." Regnar was still a little careless at first, but after seeing the seriousness in Annelotte's eyes, he finally put away his playful thoughts. He looked at Annelotte, and then said seriously: "Anne... about this matter..."

Regnar slowed down his speaking speed and organized the words carefully. He didn't want to say anything so touching, but he at least wanted to convey his inner thoughts clearly to the girl in front of him.

Regnar thought for a moment and then opened his mouth.

But before he spoke, a shrill horn sounded outside the corridor.

"Someone is attacking the family fortress?" Regnar understood what was going on when he heard this voice, because such a voice also appeared when the Elvin family attacked Andariel. Britney once told him this at that time. The meaning of the sound of the trumpet. But he didn't expect that the Alvin family's horn would also be blown.

"What's going on?" Annelotte immediately became alert.

"I..." Regnar originally wanted to say something, but seeing the dark elf guards downstairs starting to get busy in the courtyard, he finally gave up his idea. Regnar thought quickly, and then guessed: "I'm afraid those dark elves thought that Alvin's appetite was too big this time, so they wanted to grab some meat."

Annelotte nodded, she thought so too. Sarah, this idiot woman, is so short-sighted to the point of being outrageous. She was indeed the one who led the Alvin family to destroy the Andariel family. But as one of the nine major families in Darklight City, if Alvin really wants to receive all the inheritance of the Andariel family, it is impossible.

There are really too many interests involved in one family. If the Alvin family really insists on having its own way, it will only make the entire Dark Light City a mess. But Sarah didn't realize this, and she really chose to have her own way. Therefore, it is expected that other families will rebound at this time.

"What should I do? Do you want to help me with this?" Annelotte asked.

"..." Regnar hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded through gritted teeth: "Help! Our help can make Britney understand our power, so that she will be even less afraid to take Irene's ideas in the future. But if we don’t help, maybe one of the Elvin dark elves who learns about Eileen’s life experience will escape from this battle, and it may be even more troublesome. Therefore, we can’t let the Alvin family fall.”

"Is that so?" Annelotte blinked, then nodded: "I understand."

When the two people were about to enter the hall, a huge pressure descended on the Alvin family hall. Even at a short distance, Regnar clearly had a fear that originated from biological instinct.

Regnar was a little horrified. He turned to look at Annelotte beside him and found that her pretty face was also pale at this time, and her silver-gray hair seemed a little messy because of this.

"Maybe Rose's will has come." Regnar said to Annelotte beside him: "When Irene became a priest, I once experienced the scene of Pero's will coming. It was the same feeling at the time, no. , even more depressing than this.”

"Humph!" Annelotte snorted coldly, looking a little dissatisfied. Although she looks cold on weekdays, anyone who knows her can know the inner rebelliousness of this girl. Just relying on will is like making her surrender? That is absolutely impossible!

"In this case... Sarah..." Regnar felt a little sad. In the end, he became one of the murderers who killed Irene's mother...

"Ms. Britney!" Regnar pushed the door open, but Britney couldn't answer him at this time.

Because Britney was floating in the air like a corpse at this time, she seemed to be floating up with some kind of power, and dark red threads were continuously emanating from a spot of light on the stone altar. Wrapping around Britney, the other end sank into Britney's body.

"Britney is gaining some kind of power, and this should be Rose's divine grace." Annelotte whispered to Regnar.

Gasol and Wesley looked wary. Britney was at the most critical moment. As Britney's right-hand man, they would never allow anyone to disturb their sister.

"You should have heard the horn sound too." Regnar assumed the least threatening posture. He had no intention of becoming an enemy of Britney. Regnar said: "There may be some trouble outside."

"Yes, and thank you very much for coming to help." Wesley bowed elegantly, and said to Regnar: "But please be patient, Britney is receiving a gift from the Spider Queen, which is very important to the family. , the gift of divine grace is very important.”

"I understand." Regnar nodded.

But Regner didn't expect that he would have to wait for more than half an hour. The screams of death of slaves outside can already be heard. This is the routine process of dark elf battles. Although their population is sparse, dark elves like to enslave other races. Races such as humans, elves, dwarves, dwarves, gray dwarves, and goblins are all their enslavement targets. Whenever a battle breaks out, these slaves will be sent to the front line as cannon fodder. Either to reduce the opponent's slaves, or to consume the opponent's arrows, or just to allow the enemy's high-level mage to consume a little magic power. In short, the dark elves are happy to sacrifice a large number of lowly lives in exchange for the survival of even one clan member.

"How long will it take?" Regnar shouted impatiently. In fact, it didn't matter how many slaves died, but he was afraid that the battle would develop into an irreversible situation in the end. If it really comes to that point, I'm afraid Regnar will have to attack Alvin himself. He will kill every one of Irene's relatives to ensure that Irene will not be betrayed by these people and be harmed.

"It should be... soon..." Wesley didn't seem so confident at this time.

"Not soon, my dear Wesley." Britney's voice suddenly sounded: "But now."
