Hotel on the mountain

After the beast fighting on the first day of the Pandora Conference, guests can go to the restaurant next to the Colosseum to dine, or they can order food in the room, but Obsward and the Epiphyllum Hunting Group and others must stay in the restaurant specifically for The gladiators ate in a sealed room.

It's said to be a closed room, but it's actually more like a zoo.

Their room was surrounded by walls on three sides, and an iron fence on the fourth side. They were locked in the iron fence, sitting at a table with exquisite dishes, enjoying dinner, and outside the fence, people came over from time to time to admire their meal. guests. During the day, they are tools on the field for people to entertain, and at night, they are animals locked in the fence of the room for people to admire.

Obsward ate the food in his bowl quietly, moving the knife and fork between the pieces of meat. Some people would always come over and say, "Why aren't you dead yet? You actually made me lose a lot of money!", or maybe He came over and spat inside, but the guards guarding the iron fence would not stop him. There will always be some "passionate" people in the powerful class, and they will also spit shit, but Obsward still eats his meal quietly, and after eating, he rests on the bed in another corner of the room. .

Until Sander Hill appeared outside.

The time for the banquet has passed, and the guests gathered around the fence have disappeared. The guards are playing cards in the empty aisle, and Sander Hill walks over with his steady steps.

His voice echoed in the empty room like a dream:

"Obswold, Obswold, Obswold, my dear gang leader of Whitechapel."

His voice exploded in Obsward's ears like a nightmare again.

Obsward was so frightened that he straightened up his upper body from the bed. He grabbed the quilt with one hand and held it in front of him. He looked at Sander Hill, who had a sculpture-like face outside the fence. His ears were very wide, which made him comb his hair. The back of the head makes it look like the ears on both sides are unusually wide.

With a smile on his face, Sander looked at Obsward in a friendly manner: "Long time no see, isn't it? Maybe I could trouble you to get out of bed and come see me."

Obsward opened the quilt, got off the bed and walked over. He stood at the dining table, about two meters away from Sander. He was wearing striped pajamas and his face was a little sallow.

"Come here, Obswald, let me tell you something." Sander stood outside the fence looking harmless.

"No, Mr. Sander, I can do it here." Obsward tilted his head slightly, not daring to look at Sander, but he didn't want to look too weird, so he tilted his head and stubbornly just said Watch half of it.

"Oh, Obsward, I think you are very, very brave." Sander touched the railing with his hand, "I hate you very much, very much." He gritted his teeth, "But What’s strange to me is that I beat you this morning, do you know why?”

"I have no idea."

"Many people used to call me 'Tyrant Xander'. Do you know why?"

"I don't know. Maybe you're—" Obsward shrugged, "brutal?"

Across an iron fence, the Epiphyllum hunting group inside the fence heard that the person coming was Sander Hill from the Midland District. They all turned their surprised eyes to Obsward. They really couldn't understand this funny-looking man. How did a short ordinary hunter get into trouble with the Lord of Area One?

The guards playing cards outside the fence also stopped their entertainment and surrounded them with some caution.

"Sir, please stay away from this fence. Lord Daora doesn't want anything unexpected to happen to his bet." A leader among the guards noticed that the atmosphere was a little subtle, so he wanted to fulfill his duty.

But Sander Hill ignored him. He put one hand behind his back and waved towards Obsward in a gentlemanly manner with the other hand: "Maybe you can come closer and I'll tell you."

He moved as if two close friends were actually whispering. Obswald tapped his hands on both sides of his thighs. He swallowed several times and finally tried to take a small step.

At this moment, Aina suddenly appeared at the door, and she shouted loudly: "Be careful!"

After hearing this, Obsward immediately took back his steps and even took several steps back.

I saw Sander Hill stretching out his hand behind him, and the gray-white spiritual energy on it was surging, hovering in his hand like a bunch of ghost fire, waiting for the flesh and blood to be burned by it. He turned around and said to Aina who was standing at the door: "Why are you making such a fuss? I just wanted to scare him."

He laughed loudly, turned around and said softly to Obswold: "Obswold, if you are lucky enough to survive, then you must remember that tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow... I will... I will keep you alive, and at the end of the day, I will keep you dead.”

His eyes were extremely charming, and he winked at Obsward after speaking. Sander Hill just turned around and walked away from here. When passing by the guards, the ghost fire in his hand suddenly jumped out and stuck to the guard who spoke at the beginning.

Everyone saw that the gray-white ghost fire decomposed into invisible maggots one after another. They penetrated into the guard's skin and came out from all the holes. As they entered and exited the room, they seemed to have multiplied countless times. , eating up all the flesh and blood of the person. After several shrill roars, only a white skeleton reminded everyone that there was once another person here.

"Good evening, miss. If you please." When Sander Hill passed Aina, he greeted her like a gentleman and left with a smile.

Aina took two steps back in fear. When she saw him leave, she asked the guards to take the body away. She ran to the iron fence and greeted excitedly, "Xiao Ao! Xiao Ao! I... I... Xiao Ao, the blue irises are blooming. They are growing well and beautiful." Her eyes were like soft water, looking at Obsward's figure, as if she wanted to melt the latter into her eyes.

Obsward saw Aina rushing over, feeling more nervous than facing Sander Hill. He lowered his head, as if he was entangled in something, struggling with something. Finally, he seemed to have made a decision, raised his head, and smiled.

"Aina." He called her name, walked over step by step, put his face close to the iron fence, put his hands on it, and said softly, "Aina, I miss you."

These words rushed into Aina's heart like a little deer, her face instantly turned red, and tears flowed from her eyes again: "Xiao Ao, I really hate my father, I don't know why he treats you like this, you saved me, you saved Harvey, but why did he do this to you?"

But before Obsward could answer, Aina said with a little emotional breakdown: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, it's all my fault, if I hadn't let my father realize my feelings for you, he wouldn't treat you like this, it's all my fault."

She cried, crying so hard that everyone present felt guilty.

"Aina, Aina, listen to me." Obsward wanted to touch her face, but his hand finally stopped in mid-air and retracted. He comforted her softly, "This is my fault, Aina, I don't blame you. Your father has reason not to like me - I'm just a servant, but you, you are a daughter." "Don't say that, Xiao Ao, don't say that." Aina wiped away her tears, and she anxiously took out a wooden cylinder from her bag and handed it to Obsward, "I asked Harvey if you have any handy weapons, and he gave me this, called the Sleeping Smoke Tube, right? Take it quickly. Is there anything else you need? Tell me quickly." Obsward was a little He took the sleeping chimney with surprise, and his eyes looking at Aina returned to their original innocence, but he quickly suppressed his thoughts and choked up: "That's enough. But, Aina, is there any way to let me out?"

Aina looked back and found that the guards who were collecting the bones had not returned yet, so she leaned close to the railing and whispered: "I will get the key to your secret room, but you have to wait for me, okay? Xiao Ao, you must live! Okay?"

"I will, Aina, I was stabbed in the chest and didn't die, how could I die here?" Obsward smiled, and it seemed that the smile was very forced.

The footsteps of the guards outside the door had already sounded, and they stepped very loudly, as if deliberately reminding the people inside to pay attention to the conversation. Aina took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears, and restored her dignified posture. She finally said softly, "Wait for me." Then she left here after the guards came in.

Obsward put away the sleeping pipe and lay back on the bed. He was thinking about some things to do in the next few days, but was interrupted by the one-eyed woman from the Epiphyllum Hunting Group.

"You are really a busy man."

Obsward did not respond to her. Daohua walked over, pulled a chair and sat down and said, "You are acting, right? Maybe you really have feelings for her, but you are acting too fake."

Obsward lay on the bed, his hands behind his head, closed his eyes and listened.

Daohua continued, "Hehe, that lady is immersed in her own fantasy, of course she can't see it. But I, I am an old woman, I can hear that the tone of a man like you is to coax little girls, to play them around, to get their bodies and money. Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a bastard."

Obsward turned his head, his mouth corners slightly raised, his eyes playful: "I am."
