Alien world

Chapter 1353 Chapter 275. Night Talk
"Wilson...Wilson..."

"Adele!"

Wilson woke up in a cold sweat.

No one responded to him. Everything that happened in the nightmare was quickly stripped away when he woke up, leaving only emotions that had nowhere to go.

He lay in bed for a long time until the sound of footsteps on snow outside the window woke him up and he looked sideways.

At some point, it started snowing outside, and half of a head appeared behind the windowsill.

"Lord Annan, are you still awake?"

Wilson quickly opened the window, and cold air and snow poured into the room.

"I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a walk."

Annan pointed at the snowflakes above his head and said, "I just heard shouting. Did you have a nightmare?"

"Yeah... do you want to come in?"

"it is good."

Annan, who was standing on tiptoe while talking, looked at the height of the windowsill and gave up trying to climb in from the outside.

"Let's go to the lounge."

……

"…Adele cried out my name. I had never seen her express such pain. Even when she was splashed with scalding water while fighting the enemy, she remained strong."

Wilson buried his head between his legs, captured by sadness.

The snowflakes on her body melted and turned into crystal dewdrops, which Annan patted away: "Because you are the most important person to her, she will only release these emotions to you."

"I disappointed her..."

"Why do you think so?"

"I failed to fulfill her last wish and lead the free people to save the Broken Mountains. The only thing stepping on people's heads was the dragon instead of the Raymond family..."

"Don't worry, I won't let this happen. And having dragons as lords may not be a bad thing. At least they won't take pleasure in oppressing the common people."

Comfort alone couldn't help Wilson recover from his depression.

Annan then expressed his thoughts: "Blue dragons are different from other dragons. They are highly social. Rather than scattered dragons, they are more like a group of giants with great power."

"We can use rules to constrain blue dragons. For example, we can add conditions to the alliance treaty, requiring them to give the locals higher salaries, shorter working hours, and lower taxes."

"And the Broken Mountains just became a habitat for blue dragons, which doesn't mean we will leave."

Annan said that the Freeblade would continue to stay in the Broken Mountains, and that he could buy the large coal mines and hire workers.

"Or are you worried about the blue dragon's rule?"

Wilson shook his head: "I just want the people of Broken Mountains to live and work in peace. It doesn't matter who is the lord."

"That's all right." Annan stood up, patted Wilson on the shoulder, and picked up the magic lamp. "Have a good rest. Tomorrow, we can end all this and let Adele be completely free."

"Okay, Lord Annan."

Annan walked out and continued to relax outside the castle on the snowy night.

Wilson was the only one left in the lounge, the flickering light from the fireplace illuminating his stubbled face.

"Adele..."

……

"Master, everything is packed, but Madam..."

At the Philen Mansion, the butler in the hall hesitated to answer.

"What's up with her?"

"Madam has gone to the Raymond family to see Lady Melanie."

"Don't worry about her, she knows nothing." President Fearon said, maybe it would be safer to be with Mrs. Melanie.

With a humble smile, President Feilun looked at the rat priest sitting beside him and said, "Master Priest, all the property of Feilun Trading Company is ready. What you promised me..."

The rat-man priest hiding in the cloak walked out: "Follow me." President Philen clenched his fists, asked the housekeeper to stay and look after the house, and followed the rat-man priest out.

Outside the door, several cloaked ratmen were moving away the wealth he had accumulated with great difficulty. It would be a lie to say that he didn't feel bad, but as long as he could make the enemy pay the price, everything would be worth it...

Annan Reeves, Raymond...you'll soon stop laughing!
President Philen followed the ratman priest into the rat hole, walked a short distance in fear, and gradually regained his composure.

If the Rat Man wanted to kill someone to silence him, there was no need for him to bring himself to such a deep place.

There were many ratmen busy in the dungeon. President Philen would usually scream and avoid these ratmen, but now he felt close to them - after all, the stronger the ratmen, the greater the chance of his revenge.

The ratman priest led him to an obsidian pedestal, took out the spinal staff, and used obscure fel energy to open a green dimensional door.

"Human thing, come in."

President Philen did as he was told, walked through the dimensional gate, and came out into the snowy outdoors.

The brightly lit castle lurked in the snowy night. President Fieren vaguely recognized that this seemed to be the territory of Lord Felixman...

He was greatly shocked. Lord Flickerman usually seemed to follow the orders of the great lord, but was he secretly colluding with the ratmen?
President Philen, who didn't dare to look around, followed the ratman priest into the castle and finally saw the ratman elder sitting in the hall.

"You want to see me?"

President Feilun's waist was bent like a rat man: "Elder, please kill two people for me, Feilun Trading Company and I will become your most humble servants..."

"Who?"

"Lord Raymond, and Annan Reeves!" President Fellen's eyes were filled with flames of hatred.

"Who's calling me?"

Annan popped his head out from outside the corridor.

"Why are you here!?"

President Fellen's eyes were red with anger when he saw the person he least wanted to see.

Annan walked into the hall and was puzzled by what he said: "Why can't I be here? But you...why are you here?"

"You...Rat Man..." President Fieren was not too stupid and screamed, "Are you in the same group?!"

"Don't say such harsh words." Annan looked at President Fieren for a few seconds. It had only been a few days, but he seemed to have lost more than ten pounds and looked very haggard. "How did you become like this?"

"Thanks to you." President Philen sneered, his sunken eye sockets staring at Annan like a vulture.

The rat elder fanned the flames and said, "He told me to kill you."

"Oh."

Annan reacted calmly and asked the soldiers outside the door to arrest President Philen.

The main reason was that he hadn't yet obtained evidence of whether President Fieren was innocent. After the Grand Lord was dealt with, he would decide whether to release him or send him to the gallows with the Grand Lord.

Da da da da——

Just as the desperate President Fieren was dragged away, the noisy sound of horse hooves was heard outside.

There was still some time before dawn, and the castle gradually became lively.

Annan asked the butler to go out and negotiate, and he and the ratman elder stayed in the hall to listen.

"Grand Lord Raymond orders all lords to head to the Golden City immediately!"

Annan and the ratman elder looked at each other. It seemed that the overlord had the same plan as them.

"Okay, I'll go call the Lord..."

The butler sent the messenger away and returned to the hall.

Annan has gone to call everyone to get up, and the ratman elder has also gone to gather the ratmen to prepare for the final decisive battle.

Twenty minutes later, the ready team stood in the snow in front of the castle with grim faces.

Annan's eyes swept over the faces of Joan, Little Smo, Captain Ryan, the ratman elders and others, and he exhaled a white mist: "Let's go!"

Dawn is breaking in the eastern sky.
