Victoria had quietly loosened her grip on Carl's hand. In front of outsiders, she always maintained the dignity and distance that a bishop should have.
Her gaze also lingered on Hill. She naturally knew that Hill had bravely blocked the knife for Carl during the day.
Given the bad reputation of dark elves, she had long been suspicious.
At this moment, seeing Hill, her intuition told her that she could confirm her guess that this dark elf was using a torture trick.
Victoria quickly reviewed the situation in his mind and decided that now was not the time to confront Carl.
Otherwise, her speculation could be misunderstood as an attempt to sow discord.
She needed more evidence, more solid facts.
Victoria thought quickly, nodded gently at the few people, and then took a step back: "Lord City Lord, I will go to complete the interrogation now, and I will inform you as soon as there is a result."
After saying that, she turned and left, returning to the torture room.
Carl looked at Victoria's quickly departing back, feeling confused but not paying much attention.
He turned to look at Hill and found that her face was unusually pale: "If you are not feeling well, go and rest."
Hill waved his hand, signaling the middle-aged dark elf standing nearby that he could leave.
Her voice was cold and emotionless.
"I'm worried about being assassinated. At this stage, being with you is the safest place."
Karl was stunned when he heard this, but then he realized that it made sense.
After all, Hill was injured because of him, and he couldn't be so ruthless as to drive her away at this time.
“Okay, then can you walk by yourself?” Karl’s eyes fell on her. She was still wearing black stockings and high heels, and she didn’t take them off even in this injured state.
Do you like it that much?
"No problem." Hill nodded, shaking his body and trying to stand up straight.
"Let's go." Carl hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and held her hand. The dark elf frowned, looking very uncomfortable. He struggled twice, but when he couldn't get free, he let him do it.
In the torture chamber.
Victor locked his eyes on the Rain Scorpion and said softly, "It seems that your companion has the ability to enter anywhere."
A hint of surprise flashed across Yu Xie's eyes, but she quickly concealed it.
She raised her lips and deliberately said provocatively: "That's right, people from the church, this is a grudge between us and the city lord. Can you bear the Duke's wrath on behalf of the church?"
Victoria stood up, walked gracefully to the side of Rain Scorpion, and suddenly held a holy sword made of light in her hand.
In the next second, the rain scorpion's limbs were broken and its body fell directly to the ground.
Her eyes were filled with disbelief, unable to accept why Bishop Victoria suddenly took action.
Victoria's face remained calm. "My abilities are limited, so I will only help those I can help. As for those I cannot help, I will send them to the God I believe in. The great God will save you."
The next second, the sword pierced her body.
"Ah?!" Rain Scorpion's limbs were chopped off and her body was stabbed by a long sword. She wailed in pain, but the places where the long sword pierced seemed to be covered with some kind of healing magic, which continued to hurt and heal her body.
Victoria raised her hand, and another similar long sword appeared in her hand.
It only takes a while.
Yu Xie's body was pierced by more than ten long swords. She was mentally broken: "Kill...Kill me."
"Okay, answer my questions and I will send you to God." Victoria said devoutly, "You will be ultimately saved."
the other side.
Carl helped Hill into the bathhouse, not because he wanted to try the weak dark elf, but because there was a lot of dried blood on her clothes.
I have to help her clean it up.
"You don't need to take off your stockings." Hill said calmly, "I like to wash with my stockings on."
"Huh?" Carl frowned.
Chapter 119 She is very good at it
Would a normal person take a bath wearing stockings? Carl found it quite confusing.
Hill had taken off her blood-stained clothes, revealing her smooth dark brown skin, with only a pair of transparent pantyhose wrapped around her straight long legs.
"Hmm." Hill snorted softly, as if the poison had not completely worn off. She covered her forehead with her hands and frowned.
Seeing this, Karl sighed softly: “Hey, don’t force it.”
He stretched out a hand and held Hill steadily: “Let me help you.”
Hill frowned slightly, as if he didn't want to show his weak side. After hesitating, he stretched out his hand, and with Carl's support, the two walked into the bathhouse.
The bathhouse is decorated extremely luxuriously, with a bust of Karl painted with gems on the wall, which looks like a dream under the hot steam of the hot spring pool.
Of course, there is no such luxurious bathhouse in this world.
It was Carl who asked the half-elf craftsmen to build it for him. After all, as the city lord, he should be able to enjoy the bathhouse.
He helped Hill walk to the hot spring, let her lie on the water bed, scooped a handful of warm spring water from the hot spring with his hands, and gently poured it on Hill's back.
The water droplets slid down Hill's black skin, all the way down, gathered at the waist, wet the transparent pantyhose, and flowed down to both sides.
Carl scooped up the spring water again, this time it was her high buttocks, and the spring water instantly soaked her transparent black stockings.
The dark elf has a slender figure, and his brown skin seems to be covered with a layer of lustrous luster.
Carl was a little excited. He couldn't help himself at all because of the straight long legs wrapped in transparent black stockings, which were still bare.
"Thank you." Hill suddenly said.
"Ah?" Karl's hand was already on her thigh, sliding up along the black stockings that were becoming more moist after being soaked in water. His fingers ran along the slit, ready to enter directly through the black stockings.
This sudden thank you made him stop moving his fingers.
baffling.
After Hill thanked her, she fell into a brief silence. After a while, she spoke again: "When we were young, we received training and were often injured. When we were injured, we needed trusted friends to help us take a bath."
"Oh~" Carl was surprised. It was the first time he saw Hill, the dark elf, with such a nostalgic expression: "Is your training cruel?"
As he spoke, his hand continued to stroke along her slender waist. The dark elf's skin was smooth, and especially the curves of a woman, it felt great to the touch.
Hill rested his face on his arm, relaxed his whole body, and seemed to enjoy his touch. "It's not cruel, but it is indeed very hard. But compared to some other races, at least we won't lose our lives during training."
"Dark elves are a race that values blood kinship very much. Children will even play those childish games together, such as throwing stones to see who can throw the farthest."
As Hill spoke, he took the initiative to move his feet away to make some space.
Seeing this, Karl understood that she was ready, so he pulled her stockings up to her thighs and lay behind her. After all, she was a patient, so he entered very slowly.
“Hmm…” Hill closed his eyes and raised his waist slightly to make his position more comfortable: “My hometown is very quiet, so quiet that it seems that I can even hear the sound of clouds moving.”
"The sky was blue, too. Now that I think about it, it was really beautiful."
“Yeah.” Karl hugged her slender waist and pushed and pulled slowly. It was sticky, tight, and the muscles were wriggling. It was very comfortable.
"I also picked and planted a tree at the entrance of the village." As Hill spoke, his muscles slowly tightened, as if pinching Xiao Ka inside his body. At the same time, his muscles slightly relaxed and tightened again, following a frequency of three loosenings and one tightening, constantly putting pressure on Xiao Ka.
A moment of melancholy appeared on her face, as if she had been pulled back to reality from a wonderful meeting: "It's probably gone now."
"Then let's go and check it out." Carl felt waves of pleasure. When his brother was being controlled, his mind uncontrollably produced a sense of déjà vu that this woman was great.
"Together we will."
"Ah?" Hill opened his eyes, raised his hand, and looked surprised.
"I'll go with you and wait until this is over." Carl felt an unprecedented contraction and squeezing, and vomited instantly.
After all, Hill risked his life to save her, and he always felt guilty towards Hill.
"It's settled then." Hill raised the corners of his mouth, forming a smile.
She turned slightly to the side, her body unconsciously moving closer to Karl, her chest skin pressed against his chest, and the two could feel each other’s skin temperature and heartbeat.
Even a dangerous dark elf like Hill was holding her sexy body in his arms.
The instinct engraved in Carl's genes still makes him want to protect this woman.
The two of them quickly finished washing up and returned to the room.
After Hill changed her clothes, her serious and mature temperament returned to her. She sat down on the sofa and said, "You go to sleep. I'll keep watch."
"No need." Carl shook his head: "You are injured and need more rest. Let your relatives take turns to keep watch."
"Okay." Hill nodded, showing his trust in Carl.
She lay down on the bed, curled up slightly, feeling very tired.
Karl also lay down beside her, instinctively reaching out his hand and gently holding her in his arms.
Although Hill was half a head taller than Carl, when Carl put his arms around her slender waist, he suddenly felt that her body was unusually soft.
"Oh..." Carl sighed lightly. He could see that Hill was deliberately getting closer to him.
But a man simply cannot refuse a beautiful woman who is willing to take the knife for you.
The night was as dark as ink. Carl hugged Hill, and their breathing gradually became synchronized. It was the first time that he truly spent the night with a woman.
While I was sleeping, I suddenly heard a faint and continuous "rustling" sound.
Carl's eyelids fluttered open, his pupils quickly adjusted in the dim light, and he glanced around vigilantly.
At the same time, Hill in his arms opened his eyes almost at the same moment, and looked inquiringly in his arms.
"It's okay," Carl shook his head in a low voice, his eyes sharp as a torch, and he carefully examined the walls around him again, trying to catch the source of the sound:
"It's probably a mouse. Don't worry, just go back to sleep."
Hill nodded and closed his eyes again in his arms.
Carl lay down again, but did not sleep, his ears catching every subtle sound around him.
Time passed by minute by minute, the night gradually faded, and the sky turned blue-gray.
The "rustling" sound never came again.
Until the first ray of morning light came through.
"Strange." Carl sat in the spacious office of the City Lord's Mansion with a frown on his face. The dragon had a keen hearing that far surpassed that of humans.
The subtle and continuous sounds last night were definitely not something that an ordinary mouse could make.
Could it be some kind of beast unique to this world?
The door of the office was pushed open, and Victoria walked in slowly in a white bishop's robe: "I'm sorry, Lord Mayor, I have sent Yu Xie to see God, I hope she can be redeemed in God's arms."
Chapter 120 Too Heavy
Carl came back to his senses from his thoughts and shook his head. He had no interest in whether the Rain Scorpion lived or died. He looked at Victoria for a few more times and asked, "Did you get any valuable information?"
"Three years ago, the Black Scorpion Mercenary Group became the private armed forces of the Grand Duke of the Northern Territory." Victoria began to narrate: "Their original plan was to have the bears and scorpions cause chaos, and then have the Rain Scorpions assassinate with poison."
"Obviously, they overestimated their own strength." Carl shrugged. As soon as the two guys started to move, he smashed them into meat paste.
"If I remember correctly, they also included Lilia, the so-called Grand Duke's daughter."
"Yes." Victoria nodded. "From the intelligence we have collected, the Archduke's daughter, Lilia, is not good at fighting. But this time, your behavior has completely angered the Archduke Sophie of the North. And as one of the heirs, Lilia will not go back easily."
"Will she continue to kill me?" Carl just found it funny when he heard it.
He sent the dark elves to look for Lilia last night, but found out that she had disappeared.
"Yes." Victoria nodded. "The fact that she is Sophie's most cherished child is enough to show that she is very dangerous. I hope that I can stay by your side until the crisis is resolved."
"Ah?" A look of surprise flashed across Carl's face, and he looked up at Victoria.
In these three days, the frequency of his movements has been more than in the past three years.
Carl looked up and met Victoria's concerned eyes.
He was just confused. What the hell was going on? Were they familiar with each other?
To be honest, there is a grudge between the two of them. I didn't do anything to her, so how could she end up here on her own?
Seeing this, Victoria sighed softly, took a step forward, held Carl's hand, and said firmly: "Carl, I know you may feel that this is all very sudden, but our current situation is very dangerous. Lilia will not give up, and Grand Duke Sophie's anger is not so easy to calm down. I need to stay by your side to ensure your safety."
