146. More and more fish

,!

The Allen Peninsula, which has a standard humid climate, will first enter a period of humid and rainy days before the long rainy season.

Wilted plants grow slowly due to lack of light. Walls, clothing, beds, and all organic matter will become moldy. Clothes and dried fish hung on the clothesline will never dry. Either mold will cause hairy spots, or rot will lead to "crew".

No one likes the rainy season, not even children who find everything interesting - it means continuous cloudy days, wet quilts and uncomfortable illnesses.

But in dark times, even the rainy season is precious and worth cherishing.

"The Twisted Shadow often wants the fish to fall with the rain. If there is no freshwater lake nearby, she will really do it; Ophelia doesn't like the rainy season, I think she prefers the environment of hell; Elena has made the whirlpool people believe in her,

Maybe we will hear good news about her in the near future; Dracula, like Ophelia, is even worse, unlucky enough to have a moldy spot on his nose. But don’t worry.

Heart, he has been placed in a dry room with a fireplace; the children play well with human children, and the adults pity them and will not be prejudiced against them; the trainee exorcists thrive under Tesla's teachings, and I

I don’t want to blame Hades, but he is indeed not as good as this investigator; Ampere has grown in size and his food intake has doubled, but don’t worry, we can afford to raise him..."

Swamp Mother told Lu Li about the Land of Light as usual, but what was different from usual was that the rainy season was approaching.

"Yesterday the sun did not show its face, and the continuous rain in the gradually brighter place reminded me of you..."

Lu Li replied: "The situation here is indeed not good. The Viscount's surveillance of the territory is becoming more and more strict. I am forced to hide in a secret room. The farmer and the chef are inaccessible because there is not much humanity left. If you want to sneak in, you first need to kill

Dead weirdness supplements humanity, but I want it.”

"No...I'm talking about you slowly eating away at the Viscount's power like the rainy season."

Standing outside the whirlpool, the Swamp Mother saw it more clearly than Lu Li: two of the four major lords had been obtained, and one of the remaining two lords also knew his identity.

It's already hard to do better.

"Maybe you want to save more people, but this is not necessary. Their death has nothing to do with you, and you are not responsible..."

Not long after talking to the Swamp Mother, the door to the secret room opened from the outside, and a bandaged figure stood outside.

The bat guards left for the time being, and Lu Li enjoyed his daily free time - but the time was getting shorter and shorter. It wouldn't be long before the bat guards would linger over the manor day and night.

Lu Li didn't have much time to do anything.

"Mother will have a dinner party at the castle tomorrow evening." Claire said about the new changes.

“What’s the reason for the dinner party?”

"There's no reason.

"

I don't know if the Viscount noticed anything, but there is no doubt that this banquet is either directed at Lu Li or the local people.

"You should hide first, it's best to leave Midnight City..." Claire advised: "Wait until mother is relieved and then come back..."

No thief will steal when the owner of the house is prepared.

But thieves desperate for money have no choice.

"We don't have a lot of time."

Lu Li did not take the suggestion. Neither the surviving souls of Midnight City nor the Diju Trading Company would give them much time. Therefore, even if their whereabouts were exposed to the eyes of the Diju Trading Company, Lu Li did not change his plan.

Maybe the Swamp Mother's advice was right, but Lu Li didn't intend to adopt it.

Lu Li asked Claire to tell him the details of the dinner. For example, all four lords would go and rest in the castle overnight.

As expected, the Viscount would have his servants search every inch of the four lords' territories... So Claire wanted Lu Li to leave Midnight City temporarily.

"I will enter the castle with you." Lu Li said to Claire's confusion: "She will not expect that I will appear in the castle."

The dreamer is Lu Li's support. What's more important is that it is not known to the weird. The Earthly Living Company still doesn't know how Lu Li escaped from the weird toad's belly and escaped from the old sewer.

"Why not hide?"

“Because it’s a great opportunity to meet farmers and chefs.”

Lu Li has been unable to contact the farmer and chef because they are too far away and in a well-guarded castle. But tomorrow's dinner will not be a problem - the lords will gather at the castle, and the castle's defense will be weakened.

Of course, Lu Li will not show up at the dinner.

And before taking action, Lu Li will discuss the details with Margaret and Asammonth.

Although Claire resisted because of her mother's slander, she no longer doubted Asammonth's identity - the dean was undoubtedly on their side, otherwise how could they explain that the true seeing eye was in Asammonth's hand?

superior?

Margaret only reminded Lu Li to pay attention to safety. After thinking about it, Asamon thought it was feasible, but he needed to be careful not to get close to the core of the castle.

The dreamer cannot turn it on at all times, and no one knows whether there is anyone in the castle who can sense Lu Li's presence.

After leaving Asammonth's dream and returning to the manor, Lu Li entered Claire's dream again, walking on a long corridor full of history and splendor.

"Each lord has his own area in the castle."

Follow Claire up the spiral stairs, push open the trap door, and a circular room overlooking the dark land appears in front of you.

"This is my room, Tower."

The curtains hanging in front of the windows were blown open by the night wind. Claire rarely came to live here, but the lizard maid was always cleaning and taking care of the place.

Claire then led Lu Li to the farmer's guest room, the chef's kitchen, the gardener's garden, and finally to the auditorium with a long table.

The candle light was burning, uu Reading www.uukanshu.com The gardener, farmer, chef, another Claire and the Viscount in black robe appeared in front of and on both sides of the long table.

An unexpected accident suddenly happened, and a cold and gloomy whisper came from under the black robe of the first person: "Intruder... you finally showed up."

Lu Li remained silent and stared at the Viscount, but after she spoke, she returned to silence and solidity.

Claire apologized in panic at this time, which proved to be a false alarm: "It was an accident, I couldn't control the dream..."

Her subconscious influenced the dream and illusion, allowing the Viscount to speak.

"What is the Viscount's ability?" Lu Li asked Claire.

"I... don't know, I've never seen her use it."

Just in case, Lu Li temporarily quit to check the dream. There were no traces of intruders, which seemed to confirm that it was indeed an accident.

Returning to reality, Lu Li bid farewell to the reluctant Claire, quietly walked through the dry forest to the tomb, and then met Asammonth in a dream.

Asammonth will leave enough subconscious for the gardener to prepare prey, and until the dinner arrives, Lu Li will stay in the gardener's territory to harvest humanity.
