As the sun set, Rikka, Perseus, and Hastur returned to the alchemy city. The courtyard door slowly opened, and Rikka ran in with a bound, returning to his usual appearance again.
When Perseus and Hastur saw this, they naturally stopped talking about what happened during the day. One of the brothers returned to the fireplace as usual, and the other stood next to Christine.
"Do you still know about coming back? Is it because today's sunset is not dazzling enough, or do you think Christine and I are too difficult to get along with?" Boom motioned for everyone to start eating, and then said with a cold face.
As magicians, he and Christine attach great importance to the concept of time, and the originally scheduled dinner time has already passed a long time, which makes Boom feel a little resentful.
"It seems to me that I don't take you and me seriously at all, especially the little beauty with six flowers. The cow's hair on your boots seems to only grow in the streams."
"It's strange. When did such an amazing scenic spot appear in Alchemy City? How about taking Boom and I to see it tomorrow?"
Christine still has that indifferent look, but her words are still so to the point. As a great mage and a mixed elf, her insight is not inferior to that of top assassins, even in some cases.
Even worse than that.
Rikka was left speechless by the question, and the little girl's prepared speech instantly fell apart. Hastur's smile froze on her face, and she had no choice but to eat silently. As for Perseus, he seemed to be no different from usual.
Because he didn't understand Christine's sarcasm at all.
The dinner was very quiet. Except for Rikka who chatted a few meaningless words, no one spoke. The dishes were washed, the candles were lit, and the door was closed. Everyone sat around the table.
But no one was the first to speak out.
"Oh, I don't like this kind of atmosphere. Isn't it because I did something wrong? Why don't I just scold him a lot, or maybe sister Christine will say something more?"
Rikka was the first to jump up in the end. As the little girl said this, she wrapped herself around Christine bitterly, and then gave Boom a look.
"I think hot springs are the most ideal bathing pools. Natural things are unfathomable and far beyond what any bathhouse can compare with."
"But since Rikka spent a lot of time there, in addition to enjoying it, she must have heard some gossip. Although the credibility of these gossips is very low, it is still a way to obtain information." Christine is playing with a highly poisonous worm, which is her latest synthetic poison. The head is the opposite horn of a stag beetle, the torso is condensed from the body fluids of deep jellyfish, and the thousand legs are impeccably symmetrical.
As for the tail, it is composed of two opposite leaves of self-exploding flowers.
The food of this little guy is dark magic, and it can only be the dark magic in Christine's body. Therefore, even if it shows extremely high talent, its own vitality cannot match it. Therefore, Kris
Ting threw the hard-created poison directly to Hastur, and the latter stuffed it into the left eye insect nest without any hesitation.
"Well...Sister Christine also said it was just some gossip, so it's not accurate."
"I heard that the entire world is now in panic because of the turmoil in the Aogu continent, or it may be that the hatred between King Aogu and the Grand Duke of Cisse has brewed the seeds of destruction."
"Some of the nine principalities chose to stand aside directly, while others looked on with a cold eye, as if the rise and fall of mankind had nothing to do with it."
"Except Dragon Island, all forces are involved openly or covertly, and the most feared one is the Pava Federation, known as the 'Freedom Alliance'. And listening to what the goblins said, it seems that
The Pava Federation has a very close relationship with the goblins."
"Also, I heard that King Ogu was assassinated some time ago. Although he saved his life, he will not be able to show up again for a while."
"Now, these are the gossips that people have heard recently. Two magicians, please clear up the confusion quickly so that people can know which ones are true and which ones are just nonsense."
Rikka kept chattering while looking at Hastur's left eye insect nest. She saw the little girl holding a soul butterfly, and the soul butterfly was trembling slightly and did not dare to fly out at all.
Palm.
Boom frowned when he heard this. He didn't like to get involved in these intrigues. If he had a choice, he would rather practice in seclusion for a hundred years than have trouble sleeping and eating every day.
But Rikka's biggest wish at the moment is to return to the High Garden of West Sai, so only by doing enough homework in advance can the danger be reduced to the greatest extent. That's why Boom made friends with the dark elves and established a gentleman's friendship with the pure-blood elves.
Set aside the past feud with the trolls, become brothers with the ogres, share the same hatred with the dwarves, and have fun with the orcs.
If he really had a choice, Boom would not waste time like this, because in his mind, except for his companions in the room at this moment, everyone else is a potential enemy.
But fortunately, Boom also thinks that he owes nothing to anyone, so it would be best for everyone to live in peace, but if they block the road leading to the High Court of Cisse, let alone being friends, a fight to the death is unavoidable. "In fact, most of these news are correct. Nowadays, the undercurrent of the Aogu continent is surging. Driven by interests, the nine principalities cannot stay away from the matter. Now the forces of all parties are only in the testing stage. The real smoke can only be caused by King Aogu.
Join forces with Grand Duke Cisse to ignite."
"Under such circumstances, more and more humans are naturally seeking refuge in foreign continents. Among them, the goblins are the main ones, because the goblins are more like a replica of the human principality."
"As for the news that King Ogu was assassinated... I personally think the credibility is extremely low. The 'Ogu Iron Triangle' is not a name for nothing. The rumor of the great fire mage Yuri has already been half-stepped out.
At its peak, the Blade of Light of Divine Blessing Knight Anthony has never missed a single soul."

Christine took out the world map, and while explaining her personal views to her companions, she pointed the wand of annihilation at each sphere of influence.
"I don't understand these things, and I'm not interested in paying attention to other people's affairs."
"I only know that the person standing in front of me is the enemy, and only the road stained with blood is the direction leading to peace."
No matter how hard it is to suppress Boom's negative emotions, he has never had the idea of pursuing fame and fortune, and naturally he doesn't like to discuss these things. Except for the ogres and the tundra continent, all other forces are just hypocrites and cowards.
, not really an ally at all.
"Escape is the exclusive label of the weak, but since we plan to return to the Principality of Xisai, we must prepare in advance to be torn apart by the other party."
"Before that, Boom, you need to advance to become a great mage, otherwise even if I die, I will stop you."
Christine stared at Boom and spoke word by word. She did not want her companions to die due to arrogance, and she could not accept being alone again.
Boom sighed after hearing the words, then stood up and sat back by the window, silently starting to practice. He knew that Christine's words were for his own good, so he did not have any refutation. He could only live up to his expectations and reach the peak as soon as possible.
.
The magic crystal shadow lamp reflected Rikka's pretty face, and the little girl lay on the bed, enjoying the rare private space with Boom. As for Perseus and Hastur, they followed Christine and left quietly, although Boom was not
She criticized the brothers too much, but Christine was not someone to be fooled.
"Okay, now you two can tell me what happened today. If there is even half a word of falsehood, these herbal balls will be your midnight snack."
"Don't worry, these herbal pills are not fatal, but I can't guarantee other aspects. You may suffer from severe pain for ten days."
Christine's figure was elongated by the moonlight, but the figures of Perseus and Hastur seemed a bit erratic, as if they were afraid of the herbal pills in each other's hands.
