Chapter 432: Monthly Account Check
"cracking--"
Night is the time when the razor owl is truly active. Its calls can be heard from the sky from time to time, but the group of standing and walking creatures gathered together in such large numbers that the razor owl is very afraid. It only shouts from afar in the sky and dares not come forward.
On the ground, the two groups discussed their affairs under the moonlight for half a day and finally figured it out.
"——So, it was definitely not them who took him away from the Fairy Forest."
A lizard man who looked very much like a desert iguana once again looked at the group of humans in front of him and said slowly.
And the other side.
"——So, you really did sneak out on your own."
Catherine said helplessly as she looked at Lariel who seemed a little guilty.
"I'm not running away. I'm an adult." Lariel tried to explain.
"There are still a few months left." The lizard man had good hearing and ruthlessly exposed Lariel. Lariel, who was not good at lying, blushed.
Lilith was also speechless. She thought that the frequent encounters with elves recently was a sign of the ice-breaking between the two races. After all this time, it turned out that a minor had run away from home!
She secretly glanced at the lizardman opposite. She thought he was a human trafficker, but it turned out that she was more like the trafficker. She immediately touched her nose guiltily and walked forward to smooth things over.
"Oh, after all this time, it's all just a misunderstanding!" Lilith laughed dryly, "We are really not bad people. Lyriel is our friend."
The lizardman shaman who was leading the opposite side lowered his head and stared at Lilith coldly without saying a word.
The two looked at each other in silence for a while, and Lilith finally remembered something. She slapped her forehead and took out a nearly one-meter-long severed tail from her storage ring!
"Sorry, you see, this tail is actually still fresh - no! I mean it should be able to be connected again!" This is so embarrassing that Lilith is sweating in the middle of winter night.
"Hmph." A cold sneer came from the opposite side. Lilith felt her hand lighten. The person on the opposite side snatched her tail.
Lilith looked at the lizard man opposite her and said cautiously, "Well, now that the misunderstanding is resolved, we can go our separate ways—"
"He still has to come with us." The Lizardman Shaman was still in a bad mood after getting the tail. The scales on his face shone with metallic luster in the moonlight as he spoke.
"Ah? Why! I just want to explore with everyone. It's not like I won't go back!" Upon hearing this, Lariel was about to hug Catherine's thigh and make a scene, but was separated by Leila with a cold face.
Lilith hesitated for a while, and decided to fight for Lariel: "You see, he really doesn't want to go back now, and we won't go to a particularly dangerous place. It's safe for him to follow us--"
"Lilith!" Lucas couldn't bear to watch it, so he walked over and poked the "ignorant" person.
"What again?" Lilith looked at Lucas and winked at him, unable to react for a moment.
"You're so stupid!" Lucas rolled his eyes and pulled her towards his team.
"Do you really think they are just enthusiastic?" Lucas whispered, "We are all workers and we all need to eat! Do you understand?"
Lilith: "Huh?"
"Bounty! They are here to earn the bounty!" Lucas was so disappointed. If it wasn't for the money, who would fight so hard? "If they don't bring the people back, then all our work will be in vain!"
Lilith finally realized what was going on and opened her mouth wide, then turned to look at the lizardmen again.
"He must go with us to Blackrock first so that we can collect the dwarf's bounty." Since Lucas had pointed out their purpose, the lizardmen simply made it clear.
Lariel's eyes widened: "This is not--"
"can."
The elf turned around in surprise and found it was Catherine.
"We'll go to Blackrock with you." Catherine smiled at the lizardmen for the first time.
