Chapter 26 The Show Begins
"Your Highness, you should know that the relationship between Lin En and that egomaniac is very tense, why do you want to arrange for the two of them to be together?"
In the study, Afia, transformed into a black cat, lay in front of Ivester's desk and asked curiously.
In fact, during the meal just now, she felt several times that Lin En wanted to say hello to her.
But when she thought of the unpleasant experience that had happened between them before, Afia became very angry and ignored him.
But after breakfast, she ran to Yvesette again and asked about the doubts in her heart.
Yvesette lowered her head to review the documents and said casually, "Do you think I am biased towards Rhine?"
"Isn't it?"
Afia was a little confused and licked her smooth fur with her tongue.
"You're overthinking it." Yvesette shook her head. "What you should worry about is not his safety, but how badly Rhine will be treated."
She had not made this arrangement for Rhine from the beginning.
It was just to let Lin En vent his anger.
After all, he was beaten badly by Rhine that night, and considering his performance at the dinner table just now, he was probably still angry.
So Yvesette gave Lin En the opportunity to vent his anger as a little compensation to him.
As for what Graya had just done, it was another cover.
She just wanted to see how Lin En would solve the resettlement problem of more than 300 civilians.
But in order to prevent his subordinates from noticing how much he valued him, he indirectly passed the matter to Graya.
As she thought about it, Yvesette reached out and gently scratched Afia's chin.
The little black cat couldn't help but squint his eyes and purred happily.
After leaving the restaurant, Lynn returned to the underground passage under the guidance of Rhine.
Compared to the entire underground facility, the prison area is only a small part.
After passing through the extensive underground passages, the view soon opens up.
Since it is daytime now, there are not many people stationed in the underground facility.
But even so, he and Rhine were still subject to layers of investigation and their bodies were searched thoroughly.
They even used lanterns that could undo the transformation effects to check if it was someone else pretending to be them.
Lynn looked up and saw a deep corridor in front of him that led to nowhere.
The corridor was quite narrow and noises could be heard from time to time.
The noises were very strange.
Sometimes it sounded like someone was scratching the door with their fingernails, sometimes it sounded like the "gurgling" sound of slime, and occasionally there was even the low roar of inhuman creatures.
In addition, there was no particularly bright light source, so the surrounding atmosphere seemed particularly gloomy.
Just staying here is enough to make one's sanity plummet.
Therefore, the guards here are replaced regularly and undergo mental evaluation every day.
This is to ensure that they will not be infected by those strange cursed powers.
In the past, the entire manor, and even the entire city of Orne, would be helpless against these extremely horrific things.
Fortunately, with the help of Her Royal Highness the Princess, they gradually figured out how to contain these things.
Simply put, things that can be fully used by humans and have no or only little harm are generally called extraordinary items.
As for those extremely dangerous things that can cause casualties or even disasters if not handled with care, they are called ancient cursed objects.
Most extraordinary objects are made by humans.
From trivial items like freezing bullets and magic stones to large items like steam trains and ironclad ships, all are included.
The origins of ancient cursed objects remain a mystery, and some even have their own consciousness.
However, as long as one masters the rules and pays a certain price within the expected range, ancient spells can often bring unimaginable help to the user.
Feeling the eerie and dark environment around him, Lynn said nothing.
Obviously, he is a pretty strong person.
After all, he was a man who could persist under the mental pollution of the system for a full half month without collapsing. His strong willpower was evident.
Although the two of them had been silent along the way, Rhine finally spoke when they got here.
"Go straight and turn left. The weapons store is in the room at the end of the road. You can pick one for self-defense. If it's a firearm, you can also get some extraordinary bullets as a backup."
Seeing how kind he was, Lin En showed a grateful expression.
"Thank you, gay young master." He said with a moving expression, "I didn't expect you to be so enthusiastic. How about this, I will never call you a gay in front of others again. Of course, if you want me to call you a gay, then I will still call you a gay, but I personally hope..."
"Shut up!"
When Rhine heard him say that word, he felt as if he had eaten a dead fly and felt extremely uncomfortable.
He glanced at Lin En with a grim expression, then left without looking back.
Looking at his furious back, Lin En seemed to be thinking about something.
Lin En could actually guess the reason why Yvesette asked this guy to take him to the cellar, so he didn't refuse.
For a man like Rhine, if his spine is not completely broken, he will only come to harass him more and more frequently in the future.
Besides, in his opinion, the other party was just a clown.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
So even though Lin En knew that this guy had bad intentions, he still followed him.
Because he didn't take it to heart at all.
The person who can make Lin En lose face in this world has not been born yet! Of course, except for that stinky woman.
Lynn thought silently.
The next second, he followed Rhine's instructions and walked deeper into the corridor.
Sure enough, this guy is too conceited.
Looking at Lin En's steps forward and the fearless curiosity on his face, Rhine sneered.
At this moment, he was staying in a small lounge with an antique mirror on the table in front of him.
But this is no ordinary mirror.
At this moment, a group of smoke-like particles condensed in the center, showing the specific situation in the cellar on the mirror.
Seeing Lin En push the door open without any suspicion, Rhine's heart was completely relieved.
Apparently, he followed his instructions and came to that room.
"Your smile is really disgusting."
Suddenly, a sneer was heard in the room.
Rhine looked up subconsciously and found that a petite figure had appeared across the table at some point.
She was wearing a somewhat loose white coat and her signature short brown hair was messy.
"Melanie? Why are you here?"
Rhine frowned and said with some displeasure.
"I just met Ms. Milani on the way, so I invited her to come along."
In the darkness, the shadowy man Morris slowly emerged from the wall.
Melanie on the side yawned and said casually: "This child is my precious experiment, please don't damage it for me."
Rhine snorted coldly: "Are you going to hinder me?"
"No, I'm here to watch." Morris glanced at him, "I felt something interesting would happen later, so I came here."
Milani did not comment: "I want to confirm whether this child is capable of staying by Her Highness' side and assisting her."
"Hmph, then go to the side and don't bother me!"
Rhine waved his hand and said impatiently.
Then he turned his gaze back to the mirror.
Looking at Lin En, who was standing in the room at a loss, he smiled contentedly.
The show is about to begin!
Don't worry about the plot, it will be exciting when it should be. The hero will basically only be defeated by the heroine in the early stage, but he will rise up later.
