Chapter 50 "Dress Rehearsal"

The air was a little stagnant, and in just a few minutes, Irene's expression changed 10,000 colors.

At the end, she suddenly smiled and said:

"Thank you."

"My lord, this joke is not bad."

Xu Nan was silent.

Do I look like I'm joking?

It's not like I haven't eaten devils or something. After all, the taste of the low-level devil Dai Qiangsen on Huxin Island is still in my mouth.

He also has a title specifically for the hell race!

But Xu Nan didn't bother to explain these things, he knew very well that the existence whispering in Irene's ear should be the one who controls the source material of the Seron wine.

Because he had heard a long time ago that Barnes looked at Irene differently, especially in terms of the supply of Theron wine, and he almost responded to every request.

It is also because of this that when Irene wrote the stage play, the creation speed was extremely smooth, and I don't know how many times faster than before.

This is definitely not something the devil can do.

At least he is also an evil god with a small godhead!

Xu Nan looked at Irene, sensing all kinds of danger signals coming from her.

He knew that this girl, like Barnes, was probably an important part of the plan of the mastermind behind the scenes.

If you want to lure him out according to the original plan, and then the Lion King will come forward to solve it, then it is best not to cause extra problems, at least not to startle the snake before the Mu Dong Festival party.

In fact, reason told him that this was also the most correct way to deal with it.

Otherwise, once the black hand behind the scenes sees the crisis and shrinks back, the impact on Wildfire City will be endless. It will not be safe for Xu Nan to become the city lord in the future. After all, it is impossible for the Lion King or Luo Mang to keep an eye on this place all the time.

But is it really possible to just give up this lovely girl like this?

He is asking himself.

Green's sincere request was still in his ears. Xu Nan thought that he had made a cold-blooded decision, but in the end, he suddenly felt that he still couldn't bear it.

He wants to do something.

He looked at Irene seriously: "Since you know the existence of that devil, why don't you do something?"

"I can help you."

"Trust me, I have the ability."

Even if he didn't, there was Paradise Lost; at this time, Xu Nan suddenly didn't bother to calculate the gains and losses.

However, Erin shook her head:

"Thank you, Lord Santo, but I don't need help."

"Maybe you think I've lost my mind, but I understand that I'm more lucid than ever before."

"I'm just a little guy trying to fulfill my own dream...my mother's dream."

"I know what you're trying to say, I might die, but everybody dies, don't they?"

"I want to finish this work, even if I die, this work will be passed down..."

She closed her eyes intoxicated, her eyelashes trembling slightly, as if completely immersed in her own world.

Xu Nan noticed that the green marks on her neck became more and more obvious.

"Not a spell from hell..."

At this moment, Xu Nan suddenly hated her ignorance.

His level of knowledge is insufficient, and the potential rituals or spells attached to Irene do not have enough discernment ability.

He could only guess at a rough idea.

"Perhaps, you can write good works without the help of Theron wine and the power of that devil?"

Xu Nan persuaded in a low voice: "Since you have already noticed something is wrong, why do you have to get stuck in it?"

Erin smiled lightly:

"Because I know my mediocrity."

Xu Nan was speechless.

He could feel that at this moment, Irene's sanity was indeed extremely clear.

She's not warped, nor is she in Barnes' frenzied state.

At that moment, a glimmer of enlightenment surged into his heart.

"The medicines produced by sample 1 and sample 2 have completely different effects."

"If it is said that the fake wine promoted by the blood god will make that super magic civilization distorted and crazy; then the effect of the Theron wine is obviously not the case. It will make people very calm and sober, and at the same time full of creativity..."

"What about the side effects? What are the side effects? Is it just an addiction? It doesn't make sense! What does that guy want? Who the hell is he, and why can he get the creature created by the Blood God?"

More doubts flooded into his mind.

However, Irene, who was sitting opposite him, began to talk about some secret past events on her own.

Perhaps it was Xu Nan's charisma that attracted her.

Maybe something else: she might have a premonition of something.

"...my mother died when I was very young."

"In my impression, she is the most beautiful woman in the world. All the advantages of me are inherited from her, except **, which is probably inherited from my bastard father..."

"She is from Elphalia, she is a very good writer and opera singer... In Elphalia, she has a high status; later, because of the war, she met my father, that bastard, just the Kingdom of Ryan A soldier of the lowest rank...he brutally raped her and died on the battlefield not long after."

"My mother's wish during her lifetime was to create a work that would last forever; unfortunately, before she could complete it, everything was destroyed by the war; no one knew why the war was fought, and I later learned that the world of Alphalia Captured by the gods of the general world, this is a battle between worlds. It stands to reason that I should hate the general world."

"But I can't."

Speaking of this, Irene showed obvious reminiscence on her face: "I once went back to the jungle of Elfaria."

"It's like spring all year round, it's extremely warm, there's no wars or disputes; for the people of Wildfire City, it's a paradise. But my clansmen hate me because of my blood...some people try to vent war on me The trauma it caused to them... Of course, I don't blame them secretly, I just scold them directly..."

"Later I came to Wildfire City, and the people here accepted me. I gradually realized that the people of the Ice Plains were not willing to start a war. There used to be countless families in the Eastern Kingdom, broken in the jungle of Elfaria...War is inherently There's no right or wrong, so I accepted it and I'm happy here."

"I once thought that if I die one day, please be sure to bury me in the cemetery in the north of the city. After all, there are all my old acquaintances there, and I will not be lonely when I die in the future. I won't have to walk a few steps when I get up restlessly at night. Quietly, the tombstone next door is an old friend..."

Having said that, she laughed silently, as if she was telling something that had nothing to do with her.

Xu Nan gently held her hand, he could sense her mood.

She really doesn't care about life or death.

Perhaps living so hard for so many years was enough torture for her.

Even if you are so open-minded and unrestrained on the surface, but you are rejected by your own clansman, is it somewhat sad?

"I actually only have two wishes."

Irene carefully placed a small biscuit in the palm of her hand, drawing beautiful lines: "The first one is to fulfill my mother's last wish and create a great work."

"The second one may be a bit extravagant."

She smiled with some embarrassment: "My mother once said that after death, every Afalian should return to their roots. They will be buried under the ancestral tree and become the nutrient of the jungle. Returning to the jungle is our last home."

"Of course, I'm not a pure Afalian, and I don't want to become a nutrient. The cemetery in the north of the city is my destination... But I still want to see if the sacred ancestral tree that my mother said is true. Soaring into the sky..."

The living room was silent for a long time.

Irene suddenly raised her head and looked into Xu Nan's eyes:

"Will I die?"

Xu Nan nodded slightly.

Through his investigations and searches these days, he can basically confirm that Barnes and Irene are the most important chess pieces selected by the mastermind behind the scenes. Generally speaking, for such a person, after suffering too much pressure from the evil god, death is inevitable.

Unless, someone killed that evil god right now.

But obviously, Xu Nan couldn't do it. Even Stephen Sang's law enforcement team couldn't do it many years ago. Not many people in this world dared to say that they could do it.

After all, at that time, people at the level of Stephen Sang and Baye were dispatched. Almost all of Baye were legendary powerhouses, and they were not comparable to the parallel six apostles like Emma.

"That's a pity."

"But I really have no way out, I have already made a decision."

Erin stood up and stretched herself in the sunset: "I'm going to finish that work."

"No one can stop me."

"Finally, thank you for your biscuits. Lord City Lord."

Having said that, she blinked playfully, and slowly disappeared up the stairs.

"There's no way that idiot Green can bake."

These were the last words she said.

Xu Nan sat in the living room and smiled silently.

He suddenly wanted to forcibly stop Irene from writing the so-called ending because he had already guessed that this, this musical, this so-called wonderful ending should be the most important part of the plan of the black hand behind the scenes.

It may be the resurrection ceremony of the evil god himself, it may be the evil sacrifice ceremony, or it may be the advent ceremony.

"This fucking alien world!"

Xu Nan couldn't help complaining: "Why does the evil god go wherever I go?"

Emeran, the God of Blood, the mastermind behind Seron Wine... Xu Nan even doubted that he would be able to wipe out all the evil gods in the general world next.

He controlled his impulse and warned himself: Tomorrow is the day when the black hand behind the scenes will be revealed.

He must make all preparations to fight against the darkness that may come.

After all, this matter is not only about the lives of Irene or Barnes, but the safety of the entire Wildfire City!

After a while, Xu Nan finally controlled his emotions.

He planned to leave Irene's former house silently.

It's just that when he was leaving, he suddenly saw a familiar figure at the entrance of the alley.

The man was dressed in a tuxedo and looked very well-mannered.

He stood under the moonlight and looked at Xu Nan with a slight smile:

"Come with me to a party."

"Mr. Su."

Xu Nan looked at Barnes, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart:

"I remember that tomorrow is the Mudong Festival."

Barnes chuckled:

"indeed so."

"However, any wonderful party requires a rehearsal in advance, doesn't it?"

Xu Nan's pupils shrank.

The action of the mastermind behind the scenes was actually ahead of schedule!
