"Sophia seems to be recovering well, and I won't have to come here again!"
Leylin lay on the recliner and said very leisurely.
"En! Thank you!" Belinda's eyes were a little red, although she didn't know why, but since Sophia drank the strange tea brewed by Leylin's green tree, her symptoms have been significantly relieved, and now Already mentally matured a lot.
"Speaking of which, what exactly is this 'tea'? Is it some kind of potion?"
Belinda asked with some doubts, and at the same time, she was already full of gratitude to Leylin—she simply thought that Leylin cultivated the young tree solely for the purpose of treating Sophia, and of course Leylin would not expose this beautiful misunderstanding.
"Oh! It's just the name of a drink in my hometown. It also extracts the essence from plant leaves, which is somewhat similar to this..."
Leylin obviously didn't want to say more.
"Is it a custom on a small overseas island? I really want to travel there with you one day..." There seemed to be crystal clear liquid in Belinda's eyes.
"Well! There's always a chance!"
Leylin yawned, as if he was not in good spirits.
"Okay, Sophia, what good story did you bring to your Grandpa Nick today?"
Leylin looked at Sophia, who had already drank all the tea in his hand.
"Oh! I heard from Sister Agnes that the Holy City is preparing a big counterattack this time, and even the prepared 'Punishment Legion' will be dispatched..."
"Also... the holy city is now under full martial law, and there is even a plan to integrate all the residents and implement unified management!"
…
"Thomas is really stupid! He almost leaked all the precious information just by being coquettish. Sophia is amazing!"
Sophia raised her head proudly, with a sly smile in her eyes.
"Yeah! Sophia is the best!"
Leylin nodded approvingly. While listening to the other party's narration every day, all kinds of information about the Holy City gathered before his eyes.
However, following Sophia's statement, his head lowered lower and lower, and finally he even closed his eyes, as if falling into a deep sleep.
Seeing this, Sophia immediately stopped talking, and her eyes turned slightly red.
"Let's go!" Belinda's voice was choked with sobs, she put a leather coat on Leylin's body, and left with Sophia.
They are also very busy every day now, and the time they can spare is very short.
Perhaps, there was also a reason why he didn't want to see Leylin like this.
However, after they left, Leylin opened his eyes, and there was a bright light in his eyes: "Has it reached this point? It seems that the decisive battle is coming soon! Then, it's time to launch my plan." !"
"By the way... there are a few mice to deal with too!"
Leylin's eyes glanced to the side, as if he saw another place through the wall.
After that, he closed his eyes again, and fell into a deep sleep like those old people who are not in good spirits.
…
bang! The precious crystal bottle was directly swept to the ground, splashing a lot of debris.
"At a time like this, I, a noble descendant of Stuart, have to go to the battlefield, but he stays there. I really can't figure out what my sister is thinking!"
Thomas gasped heavily, the armor on his body was stained with blood.
"Master Thomas! After all, our Steward family is a guarding family of the Holy City passed down from generation to generation. It is our duty to guard the Holy City! And the other party is just a free citizen..."
A white-haired middle-aged butler next to him, who had completely lost one eye, leaving a deep hole, began to persuade him.
"Also, Missy must have seen some kind of hole card hidden by the other party, so she ordered us not to offend. I believe that with Missy's eyes, she will definitely not misjudge anyone!"
"But...but I can't take it anymore! And those two bastards, not only Sophia, but now even Belinda runs over to visit each other from time to time, what do you think of our Steward family?"
Thomas yelled, but the butler on the opposite side sighed secretly.
Obviously the other party is a free citizen, and even Belinda took the initiative to contribute to the defense of the Holy City. Now she just visits her friends from time to time. There is no reason to condemn her. Of course, for this young master, she must not listen to it. correct.
"I can't take it! I can't take it! Mambas! There must be a way to make that Nick disappear forever! During the war, this should be a very simple thing!"
Thomas' face darkened, with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Obey! Honorable young master! Your will is our mission! But now is the time when the Second Elder is preparing to lead the disciplinary army to counterattack, please endure this period of time..."
The old butler bowed at ninety degrees again.
"I know! I know, this damn big picture!" Thomas muttered dissatisfiedly, but he didn't refute again, which made the old housekeeper heave a sigh of relief.
But what he didn't realize was that at the bottom of Thomas' eyes, not only did the killing intent not dissipate, but it became more and more vigorous...
It was night, and at this time, Agnes was wearing crystal armor, standing on the wall of the holy city, looking through the Arc de Triomphe, and could also see the dense army of gluttonous beasts.
These gluttonous beasts have been polluted by the rules of gluttony, and it is difficult to see the main body from the current appearance, but the same thing is the terrifying and powerful energy fluctuations on them, as well as the desire for food, which made Agnes shudder .
Since the days of Purgatory World are very short, night is the time when many creatures are active.
Those gluttonous beasts seldom rested, and when they were physically exhausted, they would eat the same kind that died in the previous siege, so they appeared more energetic.
The result of this is a severe form that is more terrifying than the daytime.
Seeing the commotion on the front of the herd not far away, Agnes, who had long been experienced, knew that this was a signal that the opponent was about to attack.
She turned sharply and looked at the guards on the city wall.
Most of these guards are garrisons managed by their Steward family, and there are also some volunteers and forced labor.
"The Great Mother of the Lord! My blood brothers! Can we let those dirty and despicable animals step into the Holy City and pollute the glory of the Holy Mother?"
Agnes took a deep breath, and her voice spread throughout the entire line.
"No!" "No!" "No!"
In the holy city at this time, all the residents inside were loyal to the Mother of Ten Thousand Snakes, so naturally they kept shouting.
"Very good! Tear them apart! This battle! Our Holy City will win!"
Agnes brandished the snake head nine-section whip in her hand, and let out a huge roar.
"Victory!" "Victory!" "Long live Steward!" "Long live Steward!"
A large number of guards shouted together, and the atmosphere was extremely intense.
After seeing that the emotions of the guards had been fully mobilized, Agnes was relieved and stepped back from the entrance of the city wall.
"You did a great job! Agnes!"
Belinda, dressed in military uniform, came over.
"Really? But I think this is not enough!" Agnes smiled wryly, putting her arms around Belinda's shoulders: "How about the Second Elder and the Punishment Legion?"
"It's all ready, ready to fight at any time!" Belinda didn't struggle, and her voice was very calm: "If it goes well, after this operation is successful, we may be able to advance the battle line to the vicinity of Crescent Lake..."
"Hehe... all right?"
Agnes smiled, put her lips to Belinda's ears, and lowered her voice, "Belinda, let's go! Take Sophia, and maybe that Nick, and get out of here, the farther you go!" The better!"
"Why?" Belinda was very surprised, and the hot wind from the other party's mouth made her ears feel red and itchy.
"You have no confidence in the holy city?"
"If my enemy were other supreme legions, I wouldn't be afraid even in the face of siege! But..." Agnes shook her head: "You understand the habits of these gluttonous beasts, right? Belinda, they are the most The scary thing is not strength, but contagion! During the war, dozens of fourth-level people here have been polluted by the power of gluttony... In order to prevent the pollution from spreading further, we even had to directly 'destroy' them."
"This kind of thing!" Belinda's eyes widened, obviously extremely surprised.
"As long as the damned gluttonous monarch is not killed, it is impossible for these gluttonous beasts to be defeated one day. Now, do you understand?"
Agnes lifted Belinda's chin flirtatiously.
"Then! You come with me!"
Belinda gritted her teeth. After all, the other party treated her and Sofia fairly well, and she was unwilling to watch the other party die here.
"Hehe... You can all go, but I can't leave!" Agnes smiled, but the smell inside was very ominous.
"Is it for the family?" Belinda looked complicated.
"Yes! Our Stuart family was ordered to protect the holy city. As the heir, how can I leave now?"
Agnes laughed wildly and pushed Belinda: "Let's go! Go and pursue your freedom!"
"Such an ominous feeling!"
Belinda's eyes turned red, and she was almost crying. There were so many things that happened recently that this strong girl was almost overwhelmed.
"Mother of the Great Master! Please lower your mercy! Save everything!"
Belinda looked at the statue standing in the center of the Holy City, and couldn't help kneeling down piously, praying solemnly.
The great statue of Ten Thousand Snakes watched all this with a blank face, as if he had seen through everything, with a smile that was in control, and it seemed that nothing had changed.
The breeze blew, making Belinda's body feel cold, and she even felt a little scared.
