Chapter 46
Chapter 46
When you fall in love with someone, you can't help but pay attention to the details of the other person's life.Speaking of Thanatos, Yajiang always thought that he could only give a totally negative evaluation like "Fuck, snake spirit, jerk boss". However, when he recalled carefully, he unexpectedly discovered that he actually liked the other party saying that he left work early today. His thoughtfulness at the time, his arrogance when he said that he took the mission funds casually, and his affectionateness when he gave him a cream cake, even if Thanatos was careless and accidentally lost a few gold coins when he paid him, he would still think it was cute.
...Which psychologist stood up and explained to him, could it be that he really fell in love with Thanatos, a snake spirit?
I always feel like something is wrong...
With a bewildered expression on his face, Ya Jiang just returned to a villa with Thanatos, and even forgot to say goodbye to Sister Wendy.But Wendy didn't seem to mind much. At that time, she was filled with a sense of happiness that "the red scarf on her chest was brighter". She obediently stayed in Camilla City temporarily according to Thanatos' arrangement. Write a masterpiece of hundreds of thousands of words.
"Xi Luo, Ya Jiang? Which one is your real name?"
The deep voice resounded in his ears, and Yajiang realized that he was in the same room with Thanatos, and his blood pressure that had just dropped was about to hit a new high, so he subconsciously shrank back to the inside of the sofa.
Thanatos glanced at him, his pupils were dark, but he didn't say anything more, but just made a gesture casually.Footsteps sounded, and a dark blade wearing soft armor walked in, and put an exquisite wooden box on the coffee table.
Yajiang put down the black tea, took the box and opened it, and found a bead inside.
——The message beads, although they are only disposable items, are still expensive as ancient magic items, and the bald man is really willing to spend his money this time.
He sighed in surprise, and immediately thought of that cheating side mission.To be honest, Melo's life and death would cause a big chain reaction. Even if the existence of the Plane Committee was leaked, the branch president should not be so eager to kill people to silence the truth. Could there be other hidden reasons?
"Can this person be trusted?"
Thanatos' words brought Yajiang back to his senses.He thought for a while and replied cautiously: "I can't tell his identity, but I can assure you that at least now he doesn't have any malice toward you."
"Eight days ago, I led the barbarian army into a valley. They were ambushed, but the skeleton army didn't come to support them—they were simply abandoned. The city of Camilla is at the crossroads of a basin, connecting the north and the south. .According to intelligence, the skeleton troop took this opportunity to directly bypass the city of Camilla, aiming directly at the imperial capital. They are very mobile, do not need rest, and do not need food. Once they pass the pass of Camilla City, they can Drive straight into the east passage. So I informed Tong En, the commander of the Ninth Division stationed in Camilla City, in advance, and asked him to deploy troops along the Debi River, which happened to block the attack."
Thanatos picked up the teapot, poured black tea into Yajiang's empty cup, and said calmly, "I think the barbarians have a partner, and the purpose of this partner's actions is completely different from that of the barbarians."
"The barbarians are short of troops. They have never had the ambition to devour the Haru Empire. They just want to survive the difficult winter by plundering supplies. And even if the imperial capital is captured by a thunderbolt, there will still be a lot of combat power left in the empire." Under such circumstances, the barbarians may not be able to take much advantage."
Yajiang nodded in agreement, and then asked with some doubts: "I thought Duke Aldrich would do something... That Tong En will obediently obey your arrangement?"
"He used to be Marshal Alfred, my uncle's subordinate. Father's timely defection saved many people."
With his long and narrow eyes half-closed, Thanatos chuckled disdainfully, and said, "Aldrich is just a clown, and I have been preparing for a long time for some things."
Showing weakness in front of Aldrich all the time seems to be just a strategy of Thanatos?
Ya Jiang secretly guessed.
——After all, Thanatos is not weak. According to the Book of Planes, this man will ascend to the throne of the Haru Empire.
It is obviously inappropriate to discuss this issue now.Yajiang was silent for a moment, and then changed the subject: "Have those skeleton troops been wiped out now?"
"No." Thanatos said, "They disappeared under Tong En's siege net without warning."
"Disappeared?" What did Yajiang think of, and his lips tightened: "Disappeared near the city of Camilla?"
Thanatos raised his head and replied calmly, "They didn't get far away in half the night. But dark magic always has unexpected effects."
"As far as I know, there should be no way to transfer such a large number of individuals at the same time." Yajiang said: "They probably used some method to lurk..."
"Suri Bales is in Camilla City."
The sudden words made Yajiang stunned.It took him a full three seconds to react: "The bald man told you this information? She is still alive. Could it be that she is the 'collaborator'? Could it be that she wants to attack Camilla City?"
Yajiang's series of questions made Thanatos smile a little: "You don't need to worry about these questions, everything will be answered after tomorrow."
"Do you know, I'm not an idiot." Yajiang looked straight at Thanatos: "Do you want to risk yourself by yourself?"
The worries that had accumulated over the past few months gradually gathered, and soon turned into anger, burning in his chest.
He stood up abruptly and roared angrily: "Suri Bals should be dead. It's too weird for a dead person to appear here. She may not be a pure human anymore! You don't understand the dark system at all." Magic, if you want to die, can you change to a smarter way. Su Rui risked staying here, maybe he wanted to assassinate you. If you die, what should I do? You can rely on me, I After all, I am the bright priest of the temple, and because of some things, I have the power of darkness at the same time..."
"Ya Jiang."
Thanatos suddenly and forcefully interrupted his eloquent words, pale golden sunlight seeped into his amber pupils, and there was some indescribable deep meaning in that peaceful and calm gaze.
Ya Jiang involuntarily closed his mouth and took a step back.
At this moment, Thanatos got up and stepped forward, encircling his body with his slender arms, burying his hands in his black hair, his gentle movements carried the meaning of comfort and pampering.
"I don't want you to take risks related to whether you are strong or not. No matter what you become, I can't allow you to be hurt, even if it's just a possibility..."
Burying his face on Thanatos' shoulder, Ya Jiang could feel the slight vibration of the other's chest as he spoke.Looking at those light-colored eyes at close range, he couldn't help feeling a palpitation, and a strange emotion seemed to be overflowing.
"I don't want to depend on anyone, and I don't want to be under anyone's wing."
The sudden panic caused Yajiang to push Thanatos away, then turned his head to avoid his sight, and said in a hoarse voice: "Because this will become a habit, and I have to be responsible to myself. Put your The plan tells me, and then I will decide whether to join or not."
Thanatos looked at him quietly, and after a while, he showed a faint smile: "She is in the Tower of Light, the site of the light priest Melo."
