Chapter 483: Noble Celebration
In the vast universe, in the vast starry sky, a huge spaceship is traveling at high speed along the starbridge.
In one of the suites of the spacecraft, there were six people, four men and two women, ranging in age from early twenties to middle age, all of whom looked worried and anxious.
This group of people is naturally Ye Ling, Vanessa, Hua Xin and Yaris.
Based on the information obtained by the bounty union in the city of Greedy Wolf, Vanessa deduced the reason for Cynthia's disappearance - the Afaria family.
There is no doubt that the only one who can drive Cynthia to give up the rare opportunity to meet her lover and leave in a hurry is the Afaria family, who are the only Liliang who can control the Black Widow.
Vanessa's speculation was quickly confirmed, and at the Starpost Station, the group also used money to get the news that Cynthia had been there from a staff member at the ticket office, and the staff member also told them that the destination of Cynthia's spaceship was the Black Demon Star where she and Vanessa's hometown, the Afaria family, was located.
Obviously, Black Widow has a very difficult problem, and it comes from Shili's huge, well-established drug king family, she can't help herself, and her friends can't help, if they interfere, it may cause trouble for herself, so Cynthia didn't tell anyone, including Vanessa.
Everyone is also very aware of this, however, Yaris and Cynthia were born and died, and they were already partners with deep feelings, so they couldn't sit idly by, even if they might provoke the Poison King family because of this, they still resolutely embarked on the road to the Black Demon Star. As for Vanessa, not to mention, she would never be able to watch Cynthia have something to do.
Ye Ling and the Black Widow have known each other for a short time, but whether it is out of respect for this righteous female bounty hunter or Vanessa's indirect relationship, he will also lend a hand, and Hua Xin, who has always been determined to follow him, naturally went anywhere with Ye Ling, so everyone in the team did not separate, but went to the Black Demon Star to find Vanessa together.
In the silence, the most active Yaris finally couldn't stand it anymore, and broke the deadlock with a dry cough: "You say, what kind of message did the Afaria family send to the captain that she had to return to the Black Demon Star overnight?"
Greene said: "It must be very important, very important. ”
Yaris said angrily: "Nonsense, this still needs to be said, if it doesn't matter, the captain doesn't have to be in a hurry, even if she wants to hide it, she can wait until Miss Vanessa is gone and then go back." ”
"Okay, at this time, you guys don't have to fight anymore!" Dirk Zhengse said: "This matter is not only very important, but it must be closely related to Cynthia, otherwise the Poison King family Shili is so strong, if something happens, they can easily solve it." ”
Vanessa's willow eyebrows were already frowning, and she could see how worried she was about the Black Widow: "In the past, even if the Afaria family summoned Cynthia back and forced her to do something, she would tell me through interstellar communication, but now that she left quietly, I really can't think of anything that could make her embarrassed to this point!"
Ye Ling comforted her and said, "Sister Vanessa, don't worry too much, no matter how cold the Afaria family treats Cynthia, she is still a member of the family, and the Poison King family will not do anything to her." ”
Vanessa sighed, "I hope so, Brother Ling, in fact, there is no need for you to go to the Black Demon Star with us this time." ”
Ye Ling smiled: "Sister Vanessa, what are you talking about, Captain Cynthia's business is your business, and your business is naturally my business, you have always treated me as a younger brother, your own sister is in difficulty, how can I, as a younger brother, have to help." ”
Vanessa nodded, she understood Ye Ling's affectionate personality, and it was this that moved her and changed her once distorted personality.
A few days later, the spacecraft arrived at its destination, the Black Leprecha.
This brother and Julie's hometown White Demon Star can be regarded as sister planets, they are adjacent to each other in the universe, very close to each other, and they are both ultra-small planets.
Looking at the outer layer of the nebula, the outer layer of the White Demon Star is always filled with a layer of white mist, and the Black Demon Star is almost the same, but the fog is black, which always makes people feel demonic, which is also the origin of the name of the two planets.
The aborigines of the Black Demon Clan, mainly the demon race, this other race, is a kind of appearance that looks similar to humans, but has some animal characteristics, and can even transform into beasts, such as the snake demon clan, can transform limbs into snake shape.
And the only one in the Black Demon Star that is not a demon race, but has the power to rule, is the Tianluo Clan, this race that is naturally good at using poison, manages about one-fifth of the area of the Black Demon Star, there are probably millions of people, and the Poison King Family is one of the top and most powerful nobles of the Tianluo Clan.
The Tianluo clan, who thought they were superior, acted a little arrogant and did not join the Astral Alliance, but they did not reject foreign races, at least Ye Ling and the others successfully entered the rule of the Tianluo clan without any trouble, so they came to the capital of the clan - Tianluo City as quickly as possible.
This is a large city, where at least a quarter of the hundreds of Tianluo people gather, and the population is quite dense and prosperous. However, the location of the city is not as beautiful as imagined, because it is in the depths of a huge swamp, anywhere in the city, you can smell the strong smell of corruption and evil, ordinary people can not even live here for a long time, because these breaths contain trace amounts of toxins, people with weak resistance, after living for a long time, they are easy to be eroded by it and get sick, even if they are strong and strong, they will not like this fishy smell, so there are almost all Tianluo people in Tianluo City, and it is rare to see foreigners.
Ye Ling and the others are naturally immune to this slight poison, but they are still very unaccustomed to it, but the Tianluo people are not disgusted at all, and even like it very much, because this poisonous breath is helpful to them.
Since Cynthia was saved, Vanessa has been in Tianluo City for many years, and she is no stranger to this place, and she doesn't need to ask anyone, so she goes straight to the center of the city, which is also the Meben district where the upper class of the Tianluo clan live.
As soon as she arrived in this area, the beautiful archer noticed that there was something unusual about this place and muttered, "Strange ......"
Ye Ling beside him asked, "Sister Vanessa, what's wrong?"
Vanessa said: "There are too many people here today. ”
Ye Ling glanced around: "No, this area seems to be much more deserted than the urban area outside." ”
"Yes, compared to the outside, this is true, but the Moben District is the territory of the upper echelons of the Tianluo clan, and citizens who are not above the first class, noble attendants, slaves, or those with special passes are not allowed to enter, however, there are many more civilians here today!"
No matter where they are, the difference between nobles and commoners is obvious, Ye Ling glanced at a few Tianluo people passing by, no matter their clothing, manners, conversation, or temperament, they don't look like nobles, but they don't look like subordinates, they should be ordinary commoners.
Yaris said disapprovingly: "Vanessa, you shouldn't have been back here for a long time, maybe the Moben district has been opened to the public." ”
"No, never!" Vanessa's tone was very affirmative: "The hierarchy of the Tianluo clan is very strict, and the nobles regard their identity and status as very important, and disdain to be in the company of commoners, which is similar to the snake demon clan, this stereotyped tradition has a history of thousands of years, it is deep-rooted, and it is almost impossible to change." I was worried about how I had to itch to sneak into the Meburn area. ”
Greene was confused: "Vanessa, what do you think ......?"
"Festive!" Vanessa said: "Every New Year, festival and other good days, the Meburn District will make an exception to open to the outside world and let civilians enter, but as far as I know, today is not the date of any Tianluo celebration, it is likely to be the private celebration of a big family in the Meburn District, such as the birthday of a respected person, marriage, or the birth of a newborn, according to the custom, they will also apply to open to add a lively atmosphere to the celebration!" The black flowers and black lanterns that can be seen everywhere on both sides of the road, have you found them, this is another proof!"
At night, the others had already noticed that it was already nightfall, and black flowers and black lanterns were hung on both sides of the main road in Moben District, exuding a strange light.
In many parts of the astral realm, black is regarded as an evil and ominous color, but the Tianluo clan is an exception, black, in their concept, is the color of celebration, so the black flower hanging on it does not mean silent mourning, just the opposite.
Yaris clapped his palms and said, "By the way, maybe the Afaria family has a happy event, and it is understandable that they summoned Captain Cynthia back." ”
"If only it were that simple!" Vanessa took a breath, "Isn't this something that embarrasses Cynthia, she's trying to hide it from me?"
Questions filled everyone's hearts, if this celebration really belonged to the Afaria family, then what is the contradictory relationship between it and Cynthia?
