Chapter 250 Abandoned Library (14)
"Cam is here to know you're here?" Danica asked.
"Of course, although he didn't meet directly, he should have noticed someone was chasing him, and he was chasing him with malicious intentions." Phyllis said, "He should have guessed that it was me."
"According to my understanding, if he knew this, even if it wasn't so accurate, the smartest way would be to leave here immediately." Danica paused and continued, "It's not a rational thing to do any kind of entanglement with you." In the political ecology of the elves, Philis' status is higher than that of Cam, and it's Kellynsy's direct confrontation with Philis. He will definitely suffer a loss when he rushed to the front.
"I know." Phyllis frowned slightly, and said, "I feel that he came here with a special purpose, such as looking for something, and he would not choose to leave easily before finding it."
Danica crossed her hands on the table, holding her head and said, "What's the matter in this abandoned library? Apart from some of the remaining books here, the decaying tables and chairs, what's the use of these to his children as a great nobleman."
"Maybe he was just looking for a book." Phyllis said her own speculation. "I realized that he had put a large part of his attention on the bookshelf, including the cabinets in the archives room on the fourth floor, and he also opened them one by one and read them. I think he was looking for a book."
Danica smiled and said, "Didn't you say that the remaining books here are all worthless books? Is he trying to find a few prose novels to read?"
Phyllis looked at Danica and said, "I have been to this abandoned library several times. I can't say it's very familiar, but at least I have some impression of the furnishings here. I have read the remaining books on the bookshelf, but one of them was the first time I saw it here."
Danica sat upright and said, "Are you talking about that collection of ghost stories?"
"Yes." Phyllis nodded and said, "I didn't care at first. Even though the strange and weird book was following us all the time, I immediately thought of that collection of ghost stories when I realized that Cam was probably looking for a book."
"I remember we put it in a cabinet in an archive room on the fourth floor," said Danica, with an open-mouthed fantasy potion on it.
"Yes," said Phyllis, "but I went back to read it, and the book was gone."
Danica didn't say anything, she lit the table with her fingers and said, "Do you think that book is here with me?"
Phyllis relaxed his serious facial expression and said, "I do have this guess. I thought that book was following both of us before, but then I thought about it carefully and that book should follow you, and you saw it first every time."
"Well, even so, so what?" Danica asked.
"What else can I do?" Phyllis said tiredly, "If you are lucky - although I don't know what it's good to be grateful for to get a collection of weird ghost stories - if you are lucky, it's yours, of course, but I hope to find out why Cam comes, or why Kelanti is looking for this book, what kind of threat this book can pose to me."
Danica believed Philis’s words. As a princess of the Elf tribe, some magical equipment that seemed extremely precious and even rare to others was easy to obtain for her. Danica had seen Philis’s collection, and the magical books and magical equipment she collected made her amazed. She would not take a collection of ghost stories seriously.
"Okay, that book is indeed in my hands." Danica took out the collection of ghost stories and put it on the table. "As for why you said Kelanti wanted to get this book, I can try to answer it, Berey, come out."
As soon as Danica finished speaking, a pretty girl appeared in the room, looked at Danica strangely and asked, "Why did you ask me to come out? I'm trying to digest that soul fragment!" Although Bere's tone was still plain, there was a hint of complaint.
Danica was about to speak, but Berey said directly: "Okay, don't call me anything." As he said that, he got into the book again, leaving Danica with an awkward look on her face.
Phyllis couldn't help laughing and said, "Is that a ghost?"
Danica adjusted her mood and said, "Yes, that's a ghost. I gave her a name called Berey."
"Oh, a very good name." Phyllis nodded to show that he understood. For a magician, a name is a very important message, and it may even be linked to his own destiny. A contract signed by a magician with his own name can have magical power, or even betray his soul. Giving a name is a very important representation, which seems to indicate, "Are you taming a ghost?"
Danica said in a plain tone: "It's not considered domestication, it's just that I've made some equal deals with her."
"That's pretty good." Philis said with a smile. Having a deal means that the female ghost named Berey has a need for Danica. Philis believes in Danica's methods. Through "equal" transactions, she can completely direct the female ghost to do anything, and it will be much more convenient for a ghost to do some things.
"But..." There is a question that Philis didn't understand, "Kelanti hopes a ghost will scare me?" When dealing with ordinary people, evil ghosts are definitely a very useful knife, but Philis is not an ordinary person! This not only refers to her status and status, but her character and will are definitely not ordinary. A side example is enough to prove that people like Danica are willing to make friends with her on an equal basis. If Philis has a little flaw in wisdom and nature, Danica will definitely kill her regardless of whether she is a princess or not. But the fact is that Danica did not do this, because Philis is the same person as she, who is the same smart and wise, has the same firm will, and is not easy to deceive.
"It's hard to say." Danica smiled, "It may not be very effective to use ghosts to deal with you directly, but what about the people around you? Not everyone has such a firm will."
Phyllis frowned and said, "You are right. Not everyone has a firm will, for example..." At the end of the day, Phyllis's voice disappeared, and Danica didn't hear clearly that she thought that who was around her might be used by her opponent.
After clarifying the doubts in her heart, Phyllis' tense nerves relaxed. She said tiredly: "Since that book is in your hands, Cam will definitely not be able to get it. Let's go back. It's past three o'clock now, and I'm very tired after scrambling for most of the night."
Unexpectedly, Danica shook her head and said, "I'm very tired after tumbling for most of the night. Because of this, we have to gain something before going back. I can't help but leave without any help but feel sorry for the hard work of the night."
"Don't you get a collection of ghost stories? What else are you going to want? Take away a few collections of prose?" Phyllis asked strangely.
"I've gained something, what about you?"
"Are you still thinking about me?" Phyllis yawned and said, "What I want most now is to go back and have a good sleep." Phyllis's schedule is very regular, and it's really a bit uncomfortable to stay up to such a night.
"Anyway, I think it's a good opportunity to just let Cam leave here safely." Danica leaned forward slightly, looked at Phyllis' eyes and said, "And there are always few opportunities in this world."
Phyllis was stunned for a moment, silent for a while, and said, "Okay, let's listen to you." Phyllis discovered a problem with her. Perhaps because her life was too rich and she had no material deficiency, so her pursuit of interests was not as extreme as Danica. This is wrong. This can actually be considered an inertia. She has no material deficiency and does not need to pursue it, but what about other aspects? For example, power, Phyllis is now fighting for power with Kelenti, which is very lacking in this regard. It is stupid and dangerous to bring the inertia of material needs to compete for power.
"Okay." Danica felt a little eager to try. "First of all, we need to consider a question: What we need on Kam is what we need and can get it."
This is really a problem. It is certain that Cam has nothing to do with him that Philis needs, but he has to get something from him, just to think it is the price of his surrender to Kellandsy.
After a while, Phyllis said, "I remember that Cam has a big herbal farm under his name, and we can come here."
"Okay." Danica said, "What else is there? What else is there in his name? As a child of a great noble, he must have some private money, right?"
"There will be some," said Phyllis. After all, they have to socialize and socialize, so they have to pay a little bit of their own money. The farm under his name is actually used for this purpose. "It's probably more than 100,000 gold coins, and he can't have too many."
Danica simply said: "Okay, let him sign an IOU of five million gold coins."
Phyllis said: "He definitely doesn't have that many gold coins."
"You can use things to mortgage it!" Danica said with a smile. "Cam has such an identity background. He will definitely have some good things. He can come here at that time."
Phyllis frowned slightly and said, "It's too ugly to eat like this, it's a shame to lose the dignity of a nobleman."
"Decent?" Danica sneered, saying, "Do you know what I plan? After forcing Kam to sign that IOU."
Phyllis shook his head.
"Kill him." Danica said coldly, "Send his head and the IOU to the Redwood Family and let them cash the gold coins on the IOU."
Danica's indifference and coldness towards life seemed to have come to the world, which made Phyllis tremble. She shook her head and said, "No, you must not kill him. Kam is the most potential one of the younger generation of the Redwood family. Killing him, the Redwood family will fight me to the death!"
"Isn't that right?" Danica coldly "You are the princess of the Elf clan. They dare to commit crimes? They just have the chance to uproot the entire Redwood clan, which can be regarded as a warning to the guys who support Kailansi."
Phyllis looked at Danica in amazement and said with a wry smile: "No, no, this does not conform to the tradition of the elves." The individual strength of the elves is strong, and the problem that follows is the difficulty of fertility. This seems to be the established rule of this world. The stronger the individual strength, the more difficult the race is to reproduce. Because of this, the population of the elves has always been a headache for the elves. In this social environment, it is very cautious about depriving an elves of life, let alone in political struggles. That would really lose the decency of the elves.
Seeing Philis was so determined to object, Danica had to say, "Okay, listen to you, we won't kill him, but it's not too much to get some good things from him?"
"It's not too much." Phyllis rubbed his eyebrows. In fact, in Phyllis's opinion, this was too much, but compared to killing Kam and uprooting the Redwood Family, this proposal was already very gentle.
Danica smiled and said, "Okay, the purpose has been discussed, and the next thing is how to catch that guy."
Phyllis said: "Kam's strength cannot be underestimated. He is also a top student in the Magic Academy. Moreover, as the most promising member of the young generation of the Redwood family, he can get a lot of magic equipment. This time he goes out for an adventure, you must bring some things with you." It's not unreasonable that magic equipment is so precious and rare. Many magic equipment has powerful power and special functions on their own, which will greatly affect the development of the battle situation. Phyllis is worried that this matter is not easy to do.
Danica was quite confident and said, "Don't worry, we have two people, it's not a problem to only chase one professional of the same level, right?"
"It's really hard to say." Phyllis shook his head and said, "If he feels something wrong, he will run away immediately, and we may not be able to catch him." Defeating and arresting are two completely different things. It is difficult for a rank profession who is dedicated to escaping.
Danica thought for a while and said, "Then we need to make some plans to lead Kam to a suitable place before processing."
"How did you lead it?" Phyllis asked.
