Chapter 596: A Free Home
Ash looked surprised, "Why are you asking this-I never wanted to leave you. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"I didn't mean that," Tilly knew she had misunderstood, "just in terms of preference...... It's not a bad place, is it?"
Ash hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded, "It's not for nothing that the Mutual Aid Society is willing to stay and work for Roland. But we're different, we have our own homeβ"
"There are only three endings to this war," Tilly interrupted, "First, we can't stop the attack of the Divine Punishment Army and die in the North, so whether it's Sleepy Isle or Neverwinter, it doesn't matter to us. β
"You will never sleep in that kind of place, I swear with my life," Ash hurriedly reached out and covered the mouth of the five princesses, and used honorifics in a hurry.
Tilly looked at her with a smile until she let go of her hand and whispered, "It's just a hypothesis, and I don't think I'm going to die at the hands of the church." β
"Then don't say it," Ash said worriedly, "what do you usually say......
"In a word," Tilly said as she walked to the small kitchen window and looked out at the vibrant castle back garden, "so I put it at the front." The second scenario is that Roland fails, but we all survive. As a result, the entire Grey Keep will no longer be able to stop the Church, and Neverwinter will be on fire, leaving him with only one place to go. β
"Sleeping Island?"
"Well, we will continue to rebel against the oppression of the Church there until the war of divine will comes. Total destruction is likely to be hundreds of years away, and that is not within our control. β
"What about the third ......"
"The third is that we defeat the Church and uproot the holy city of Hermes," Tilly smiled, "and all witches can be truly liberated from humiliation and persecution." When that day comes, the mission of the Isle of Sleep will come to an end. β
"Knot...... Bundle?"
"It was originally a retreat home for witches, and after the collapse of the Church, there was no need for us to confine everyone to Fiordland Island. The fjord is not a good place to live in, with a lack of supplies and changeable weather...... Of course, Sleepy Island won't be abandoned, and the Maleficent Spell will continue to operate, but you can choose the city life you like, right?"
"Even if it's the devil-infested abyss of hell, I'll be by your side. β
"Is the same true of a world full of salted fish and fish soup?"
"Uh-" The ashes choked.
Tilly couldn't help but laugh, "Don't worry, I'm tired of eating too, maybe I'll come to Neverwinter for a while in the future." β
"What are you talking about here?" asked Andrea, pushing open the door and probing in, only to see that she had a wooden basin on her head and even a bathrobe changed.
"What are you going to do here?" said Ash, frowning.
"Take a bath," she pouted, "I've been on the ship for more than ten days, and the salty smell is about to overflow." Of course, it's not surprising that some people won't notice it, Mistress Tilly, are you going with me?"
"Okay," Tilly replied, "wait for me to change my clothes." β
"Ahem...... I'll go down then," Ash said, pretending to be nonchalant.
"Please, I didn't invite you. Andrea gave her a blank look.
"I'm with Tilly, not with you, don't be mistaken. β
Looking at the two of them staring at each other, Tilly couldn't help but think lightly that if she could really defeat the church, everyone would be able to live like this.
Roland was in his office for a long time, and he didn't come to his senses until the nightingale shook the dried fish in front of him.
Tilly's brother screamed unsuspectingly, and she had not acknowledged the identity of brother and sister until the last time she said goodbye, which made Roland puzzled in joy - did she really think that she was the fourth prince, or did she think of him as a brother in another sense?
"Isn't that just a brother," said Nightingale disapprovingly, "I can call you that if I want to hear it." β
You're three years older than me, and what about being a nobleman?" Roland thought weakly, but his brother and sister sounded pretty good...... Stop, this thought couldn't go any further, "Why did you say she suddenly changed her attitude?"
"Who knows, it's probably for the sake of you not taking advantage of the Bloodfang's displeasure to split the Isle of Sleep, and to start an all-out war with the Church so soon. These actions are more proof of your sincerity than empty promises. Nightingale shrugged, "But that's all my guess, maybe she's just a slip of the tongue." β
Indeed, the reason is not important, the key is the facts. Regardless, this will make the relationship between the two even closer, and he has taken another solid step in his efforts to win over all the witches of Sleepy Island.
"Next, it's time for us to see Herty Morgan. He said.
......
Roland entered the castle's underground prison and found her lying asleep on a straw bed, the wound on her leg healed, leaving only a large red and black stain of blood.
"In order to ensure Nanawa's safety, I knocked her unconscious before treating her. Nightingale whispered in her ear, "Otherwise, it would be too dangerous to take the Punishment Stone, and I heard from another Bloodfang witch that she tried to take Andrea hostage when she was surrounded, otherwise she wouldn't have been subjected to this." β
"Well, you're doing it right. β
As a powerful battle witch, Hetty wears iron rings around her neck and wrists wrapped in Punishment Stones, which are difficult to remove without special tools.
According to Tilly, she is able to cause objects within ten steps to collapse inward, causing deadly damage. This collapse is not affected by other external forces, and when the container is released, it makes no difference whether the shell is wood or metal - the wood is shattered by violent bending, and the metal is flattened.
What's even more terrifying is that it is also effective for living beings, such as the abdominal cavity and chest cavity, which have internal gaps, which will quickly fit under the squeeze of the ability, squeezing out the organs in the body like soft mud, which makes Roland can't help but think of squeezing toothpaste.
However, for him, Hetty's abilities are better suited to staying in the factory than fighting enemies.
If she stuffs a mold into the raw material, she can easily function as a stamping machine, and that's just the simplest use. What if she realized that molecules and atoms are also full of gaps through her studies?
It's a pity that everything is late.
"Wake her up," Roland said.
Nightingale nodded, dodged into the cage, lifted Hetty, and pulled her to the railing.
"I am Roland Wimbleton, King of the Grey Castle," he looked at her condescendingly, "don't you have something to say to me alone, and now you can speak." β
