Chapter 297 The Hot Heart

8days ago Xuanhuan Novels 9
Roland opened his eyes and found himself lying on the soft big bed, with a familiar ceiling above his head, and even every crack coincided with what he saw in his memory.

Is this my own... bedroom?

He turned his head and looked at his shoulders on both sides, both on the left and on the right, looking intact.I tried to move my hands, and there was no problem either.

Everything is like a dream.

But he knew that this was by no means a dream, and the fact that the devil had already happened!

The fact that they were able to lie safely in the bedroom means that they had escaped the devil's pursuit and returned to the castle successfully.

But are all the witches back safely?

Thinking of this, Roland's heart couldn't help but sink. He forced himself to hold his body up, and a feeling of weakness came from his arms.

Just as I was about to call someone, I saw a row of witches leaning against the wall facing the end of the bed, including Anna, Nightingale, Lightning, Maisie and Nanava.

They leaned on each other's shoulders, breathing smoothly, their eyes closed slightly, as if they were asleep.

Roland quietly opened a corner of the curtain and found a dark light outside the window rising from the Chishui River, like dazzling golden silk sprinkling on the earth.

You...wake up?

Turning back, Anna had opened her eyes at some point. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked to Roland step by step.

Well, I woke up.Other witches...

They all arrived in the town safely, and in fact, you were the only one who was injured.

Is that right? Roland breathed a sigh of relief. That was really good

fool.

Before he could refute, the other party hugged him tightly, and the hand behind him pressed so hard that he almost wanted to embed it into his flesh.

Anna's actions awakened the other witches.

Your Highness!

They stood up in surprise and surrounded them. Lightning hugged Roland the second time, followed by Nanava and Maisie. Nightingale hesitated for a while and hugged everyone from behind.

In this way, everyone hugged each other and was reluctant to let go for a long time... Time seemed to be frozen at this moment.

……

After breakfast, Roland listened to the details in the office before he figured out what happened later.

The witches joined hands to defeat the Devil's Chaser and let Lightning and Maisie return early with him.

After being taken back to the castle for treatment by Nanava Pine, the broken arm quickly reunited as before, but due to severe blood loss, he fell asleep for a whole day, so today is the fourth day since the departure date.

This action was a bit careless. He didn't expect that the devil could find a hot air balloon painted with sky camouflage more than ten miles away.

According to Sylvie, the huge multi-eyed demon had nothing unusual before, and her eyes were also looking in all directions. However, when she moved her gaze to the multi-eyed demon, the other party immediately reacted and instantly pointed all the eyeballs at her.

Such a method of investigation is unheard of. You should know that at this distance, except for Sylvie's real eye, even the viewing glass is blurred, and with the red fog covering the spire, it is even more difficult to see the specific situation of the devil.

Correspondingly, it should be difficult for the other party to find out that they are.

Having said that, although this trip encountered major dangers, the information gained was also extremely rich.

The devil is no longer the mysterious and unknowing messengers of hell. They have towns and organizational systems, and like humans, they belong to the highly evolved civilized group.

Moreover, the opponent's air power is not strong, at least in this area behind the snow-capped mountains.

Hundreds of devils emerged from the ground, but in the end there were only two driving mounts to chase, which shows that flying is still a rare ability for them. As for whether mounts are rare or rare for riders, it is still unknown.

But overall, this is good news for Border Town.

At least he doesn't have to worry about a group of devils passing by the hills and ridges in the south and entering the hinterland of the west to burn, kill and loot.

In addition, the devil's magic is also an important discovery.

According to the Nightingale's report, although the enemy who chased was scarce, it did form a cyclone, which was very eye-catching in the fog state.

However, the way they stimulate magic seems to be completely different from that of witches. They rely not on themselves, but on some mechanism, such as the glowing stone, to release their power. Therefore, they are not as ever-changing as the witch's abilities, but more like a mass-produced standard weapon.

Of course, these are just speculations, but unfortunately, all the devil's corpses fell into the sea, and Roland could not further verify them.

The last point is architecture.

Those short and slender black stone spires are not the devil's residence, and their materials are also very strange, with no traces of corrosion from red fog on the surface.

Some stone towers are empty inside, while others are filled with red liquid, which is similar to storage tanks.

Could it be that the red fog in the sky is formed after these liquids are vaporized?

The devil did not further expand into the wilderness and even the four kingdoms because of the limited gas coverage?

In any case, based on all the information, they will not threaten the security of the border town for the time being.

However, Roland also knew in his heart that since they drove humans out of the wilderness more than four hundred years ago, maybe one day it would sweep over again, and he must be prepared for this day.

……

Due to the heavy blood loss, Roland only dealt with the remaining several decrees after nightfall and lay on the bed early.

Sitting at the head of the bed and reading half of the history book, just as I was about to blew the candles and went to bed, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

He was slightly stunned, climbed out of bed and opened the door, and it was Anna standing at the door.

She did not hold a thick book like before, either "Medium Physics" or "Theoretical Foundation of Natural Science", but instead walked into the room empty-handed and wearing a white nightgown.

She wasn't even wearing shoes, her delicate feet touching the floor, so quiet that there was no sound.

Roland swallowed.

Anna closed the door with her backhand and pulled the plug.Then she took Roland's hand and walked to the bed.

The girl's hair had just been washed, and the hanging ends reflected a faint golden light under the candlelight. When she got close, she could smell a faint fragrance. The intoxicating fragrance did not come from rose soap, but from herself.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her cheeks flushed, and her blue eyes were like a pool of autumn water.

Although she could see that she was a little nervous, she did not feel hesitated at all. Her eyes looked straight at Roland, and her heart was full of determination.

Even though he had never experienced a big battle, he understood what the other party expressed.

Ah, this...

I don't want to wait any longer, Anna whispered, especially after experiencing such an experience.She paused, I didn't want to regret it.
