Chapter 221 Please, help me
Chapter 221 Please, help me
Mis felt somewhat remorseful.
This poor girl didn't even have the chance to see her adoptive parents for the last time.
He couldn't imagine how devastated Angelique would be when she found out about the Motina family.
She had to endure the pain of losing both her parents twice.
Mis didn't want to tell the girl about the death of the Modina couple. He wanted the girl to be happy for a while, even if it was just for a short while.
At this moment, the sudden sound of footsteps in the dungeon interrupted the girl's beautiful memories.
Angelica looked towards the door anxiously, "Is it Lady Beatrice who came to punish me?"
Mis frowned slightly, "It doesn't seem to be."
The figure that appeared at the cell door was somewhat unexpected to Angelique.
When she saw that graceful figure, she was stunned.
"Xi, Xi, Lady Sylph?"
Angelique could tell she was dreaming and rubbed her eyes vigorously.
"Miss, please help me check, is that Lord Dragon King? Am I dreaming?"
But she was not mistaken, the person who came was Sylph.
After opening the cell, Sylph looked at the young guard slumped on the ground and asked, "Are you Angelique?"
Angelique was stunned for two seconds when her name was called, then she quickly stood up and tried to salute.
But she had been in that position for too long and her legs were already numb.
Angelique, who was staggering from side to side, finally stood up with difficulty, her legs trembling slightly and her words stuttering.
"Angelica, I'm Lady Sylph, ugh, I'm Lady Angelica, ugh, ugh, ugh, I'm sorry, Lady Sylph, I'm Angelica, I'm sorry!"
Looking at the girl who was about to cry, Sylph was speechless.
She wondered, is this really the trustworthy Angelique that Beatrice mentioned? Why does she look like she is not very smart?
No wonder Miss escaped from the dungeon.
Without thinking too much, Sylph asked Angelique to leave the cell first and wait outside while she talked to Miss.
Angelique bowed deeply, then quickly ran out of the cell, tripping over the threshold of the cell door and falling on her back.
She rolled over and hit her head against the wall. Without saying a word, she got up and ran out, covering her head.
Miss couldn't bear to watch Angelica's funny actions, and silently covered her eyes with her hands.
Sylph sighed, "You can only fool these little girls."
"Lord Silver Dragon King's deception is pretty much the same." Miss said casually.
Sylph was puzzled, "What do you mean?"
Miss held up five fingers and said, "We agreed on a five-year deadline, but now it's only been two years and you've caught me here. Isn't Lord Silver Dragon King also a liar?"
Sylph snorted coldly, "Did I ever say that I would eat you now?"
Mis was stunned for a moment, "Uh, it seems not."
"I did agree with you to give you five years to grow, but I didn't say that you were free during these five years."
What Sylph meant was to tell Miss that he should stay in Sky Island Dragon City honestly for the remaining three years.
Miss was speechless and had to admit defeat.
After all, relying on his own strength, he probably wouldn't be able to leave Sky Island.
And even if we return to the human territory, it may not be safer than Sky Island.
Cross failed to find out Miss's background this time, so he is definitely not willing to give up.
Hiding in Sky Island and developing secretly might be a perfect choice for him.
"Lord Silver Dragon King came here in person. He wouldn't just tell me this, right?"
Sylph's eyes were a little vague, she must have other purposes.
The first purpose is to test whether Miss has recognized the true identity of the little girl "Fu Fu".
The second purpose is also the most important one.
Ask Miss to help Longcheng build a new city defense barrier.
Sylph never imagined that one day she would have to ask a human for help.
But she had to lower her head.
The dignity of the Dragon King is worthless in the face of the safety of his people.
"I remember Xilu mentioned before that you are very knowledgeable about magic theory?"
When Miss heard Sylph's question, he immediately understood the other party's intention.
"Know a thing or two."
Sylph continued, "Can you construct a barrier..."
Miss said with some uncertainty, "Maybe."
Sylph cursed inwardly, it's obvious that he knows how to do it, but he still said "probably".
In her opinion, Miss was planning to trick her into treating her like a little girl.
But Sylph would not be fooled, because she had seen with her own eyes Miss perform barrier magic, and her technique was extremely fast and the effect was excellent.
"Can you build a large defensive barrier?"
"Lord Silver Dragon King, you don't want me to help you repair the city protection barrier?"
After hesitating for a moment, Sylph nodded and said, "That's right."
Miss smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, I have the ability to help you rebuild a more effective protective barrier for the city."
Sylph's eyes lit up and she saw hope.
"really?"
Mith slowly sat back on his haystack, leaning against the wall, his tone cold.
"It's definitely true, but why should I help you?"
Sylph frowned slightly. She knew that things would not go so smoothly.
"Your barrier can save the civilians in the city. It will save many lives."
Miss picked at the weeds in her hair and said, "They are your people. What does their life or death have to do with me?"
Faced with Miss's ruthless reply, Sylph did not feel disgusted, but recalled Miss's decisiveness when she risked her life to save the little boy in the shelter.
"You are not a cold-blooded person. I believe these words are not what you meant."
"Lord Silver Dragon King, how do you know what kind of person I am? Do you understand me?"
Sylph didn't know Miss, nor did she think about taking the initiative to get to know Miss, but she trusted her intuition.
"Miss, I was watching you rescue that unrelated little boy at the shelter.
If you are really cold-blooded and heartless, how could you do such a dangerous thing?
If you were really cold-blooded, why would you set up a barrier to protect the safety of that silver-haired girl?
If you are really cold-blooded and heartless, why would Xilu want to be friends with you?"
After hearing what Sylph said, Miss was silent for a long time.
Removing the weeds from his head, he said coldly, “Sylph, you may have some misunderstanding about me.
I am not a kind person and I will not help others for no reason, especially a bad woman who wants to eat me.
You want to protect the civilians in the city, you want to keep your throne as the Dragon King, and you want me to help you build a protective barrier for the city.
But have you ever thought about this: I don’t owe you anything, so why should I help you? "
Sylph's expression was moved. She bit her lips tightly, clenched her fists, and said nothing.
Mis continued, “Of course, you are the noble leader of the dragon clan, a powerful person standing at the top of the world.
I didn't help you, you ignored the agreement, didn't keep your promise, and killed me in a rage, which is understandable.
After all, I am weak and alone, just an ant in your eyes."
After some sarcastic remarks, Miss discovered that Sylph lowered her head, her body trembling slightly, like a little girl secretly shedding tears.
Just when he was looking confused, something happened that shocked him.
Sylph bent her knees slightly and fell to her knees with a plop.
"Please, help me. As long as I can protect those poor people, I can do whatever you want..."
