Chapter 399 Broken
The dark room, the quiet night.6↙
Xia Lan sat alone on the windowsill looking up at the sky decorated with stars. He was holding a bottle of strong wine in his hand. There was not much dark golden liquid left in the bottle. He had rarely drunk alcohol over the years because alcohol would numb his nerves and think slowly. When he was slow to react, his killing sword would naturally slow.
However, he has no one to kill now, or he cannot find someone to kill.
He is very irritable, and when he is irritable, he becomes a bad temper. Strong emotional fluctuations can easily make people lose their minds.
He didn't lose his mind, he just wanted to drink and calm down.
An uncontrolled situation, a situation that is walking on thin ice, and a step-by-step enemy.
No matter which one is enough to make people feel upset, not to mention that all the unfavorable things are added together.
And Adrina's robbery undoubtedly gave Xia Lan a heavy blow.
People have psychological endurance limits. Although this will not cause Xia Lan to collapse, how can this happen to make him calm down? It is one thing to calm down, and whether he has thought about the solution is another thing.
Even though he tracked down the place where the subverted Fang imprisoned Adelina, is he capable of rescuing her?
At this point, he can only adopt extreme response plans.
...
Adrina shrank in the corner of the bed, looking at the stack of documents left by Ophelia on the desktop with a complicated expression, and her heart was full of struggle and hesitation. Whenever she wanted to go forward to check the information, there would be a voice in her mind that she would shout no.
She didn't believe Ophelia's remarks to Mr. Xialan. Even though Mr. Xialan lied to her in some matters, she still stubbornly believed that Mr. Xialan's feelings for her would not be fake!
People can lie, and information can also be faked. But the irrepressible curiosity impulse makes her unable to ignore it.
The first half of the night passed and the second half of the night came quietly.
Adrina finally moved her body, and a firm look appeared in her confused eyes. Since she firmly believed that Mr. Xia Lan was not the person Ophelia said, even if it was slander and slandered Mr. Xia Lan in the information, what's wrong?
The lights in the room were very bright. He tiptoed to the table. Adelina looked at the stack of ordinary paper documents on the table and took a deep breath, and opened the information as if she had made up her mind.
Time passed slowly, as the information was read, Adelina's face gradually fell into a daze. When she finished reading the information, her bright eyes suddenly dimmed, as if she had lost her former charm.
"It's a lie... it's a lie... it's definitely not the real Mr. Xia Lan... it's a good person... it's definitely not a bad guy who does everything he wants..."
She murmured to herself, and she couldn't accept Mr. Xia Lan described in the information.
There is a sentence in the comment at the end of the information.
"He is a person who uses his own means to achieve his goals. Anyone around him can become the object of his sacrifice. Don't ignore everyone he contacts, because there may be chess pieces he fools and manipulates."
"I've finished reading the information? How do you feel? Now you finally know the true face of Drank Xialan."
Suddenly, Ophelia's slightly sarcastic voice sounded in the room. In fact, she had never left the room. The simple invisibility technique easily deceived Adelina's senses, and she paid attention to Adelina's psychological changes from beginning to end. Now, she no longer needs to invisible.
"No! You are lying to others! Mr. Xia Lan is definitely not the kind of person in the information!"
Adrina quickly picked up the information in her hand and threw it directly at Ophelia.
Ophelia waved her hand gently, and the information instantly turned into countless flying pieces of paper in front of her eyes, and then all disappeared.
"Adelina, don't be stupid. The investigation about Drank Xialan in the information is absolutely true. I can even swear to the fernu law!" Ophelia said calmly as she looked at Adelina who was extremely excited.
"No, even so, I still won't believe it!" Adelina said in pain with tears in her eyes.
"Do you think you are comparable to the talented pharmacist girl who has become famous recently in Port Louis? Do you think you are comparable to Princess Pandelia of Sissinia? Do you think you are comparable to the unrestrained and unruly female mercenary commander? Haha... Whether it is appearance, status, charm, or strength, what do you compare to them? Why would Drank Xialan fall in love with you? After all, you are just a pawn he used." Ophelia said with sharp words and mercilessly.
"But...but..."
For a moment, Adrina wanted to argue, but Ophelia interrupted directly: "But what? Do you think that Drank Xialan loves you when he goes to bed? Don't joke! Now only a little girl like you who are simple-minded will believe in these things. Going to bed can't represent everything! Maybe in his eyes you are just a sex slave who vents your physical needs!"
"I don't listen! I don't listen! Mr. Xia Lan is definitely not such a person! You bad woman! I don't want to see you! Go away! Go away!"
Adrina yelled as she covered her ears, tears soaking her cheeks.
"Hmph! Think calmly!"
After hearing this, Ophelia immediately shook her hand and left.
Punching on the bed, Adrina's little nose kept sobbing. She cried very sadly, even more sad than when she heard the bad news of her adoptive parents. There was no doubt that Ophelia's words shook her heart.
She was abandoned since childhood. She finally moved to Port Louis happily and happily and her adoptive parents died unexpectedly. From then on, she was helpless and maintained a strong life in the small grocery store. She could not see where the future was, and could only rely on herself to work hard and slowly move forward. Until one day, she met Mr. Xia Lan, who appeared like the prince of her own destiny. Beside him, she felt the happiness she had never had before. The beautiful scenes in the memories are forever unforgettable, but now someone tells her that everything is hypocritical. The man is lying to her and everything she does is using her. How can she believe it?!
However, facts have proved that all of this, perhaps, was really a dream for her.
This dream is so real that it makes her feel so sad.
...
"Ophelia, it's rare to see you can't control your emotions."
While Ophelia was angrily walking through the corridor, Luoslin, who was resting in a room, suddenly called her.
"Essaying the lady's words is not a gentleman's behavior." Ophelia stopped and walked directly toward the open door of Losling and said coldly.
"I'm sorry, if your voice is a little bit smaller, maybe I can pretend to be deaf." Losling said carelessly.
"Yes, yes! It's all my voice that has been too loud, which has affected other people's peace!" Ophelia sat on the sofa opposite him and said angrily.
"However, what you said just now seemed to have successfully dismantled the girl's defense. Listen carefully, she was still crying." Luoslin said leisurely with tea.
"If it's not cruel, how can you let her see the reality clearly and how can you let her join us!" Ophelia snorted coldly.
"Although the methods are a little more intense, the effect is indeed good." Losling nodded.
"I'm still curious about one thing, why Drank Xialan had to contact this seemingly ordinary girl. Does he know that she is the chosen one? But it doesn't look like it." Ophelia suddenly frowned.
"He has always been unorganized, and who knows what he is thinking." Luoslin lowered his teacup and said.
In fact, he miscalculated one thing. Xia Lan's so-called lack of rules in acting was all because they disrupted their plans every time, which forced him to change his action plans again and again.
"I always feel that there is something hidden in Adrina that we don't know." Ophelia said uneasy.
"Even if there is any secret hidden in her, as long as we firmly hold her in our hands, we will sooner or later discover this secret." Luoslin said.
"Is it a disaster?" Ophelia murmured to herself.
Roslin knew that this woman had always been keen intuition. At first, she learned magic in the prophecy department. However, later her tutor found that she was more talented in elemental spells, so she changed her learning direction.
In many missions, Leophelia avoided many dangers with her extraordinary intuition, so many people in the organization regarded her as a lucky star.
"There are not these things you need to consider now." Luoslin shook his head and said, "Our people accidentally discovered some mysterious and powerful fluctuations at the site of the excavation of the relics. According to our inference, the relics are really likely buried under the abandoned warehouse No. 112. Although we dare not act rashly because of the Lust Temple, the organization will soon send support, and a big battle will inevitably be avoided!"
"Is the Holy Church of Glory? Hehe, it seems that you have ignored the Governor Sir Holebas and Drank Cialan." Ophelia chuckled.
"It's overestimated their ability to compete with the organization for the relics! I have to say that I have to thank them for helping us find the relics! However, this time we are bound to win! Even Christopher can't stop us!" Loslin said viciously.
"You decided early in the morning that they would sue the Holy Temple of Glory?" Ophelia said with her eyebrows trembling.
"Or what do you think they can fight us together?" Loslin sneered. "I believe that Drank Xialan, who had had several conflicts with us, must know our strength. If he also wants to obtain the relics, he will definitely inform the God of Light to be enemies with us, so that he can seize the relics in the chaos. Unfortunately, he is going to miscalculate!"
"I haven't seen you for several years, but I didn't expect you to become more and more scheming." Ophelia sighed.
