Chapter 199 Imperial Frontiers: The Conspiracy
The last time I saw the Palace of Thorns outside, I felt that this place is not very livable. You know, except for the idiot guards at the door, there is also a steel fence with barb-like spikes everywhere, and the purple-black outer wall It was covered with glass that reflected an ominous halo, reminding Vito in every sense of the Inquisition's dark cell.
But it feels different when you walk in. Although it is obvious that Malesi's decoration style is as deep and dark as ever, just like all the classic styles of the Dark Eldar, but fortunately, there are paintings and bouquets hanging on the walls here, not Torture and torture tools, right?
Vito walked in the corridor of the Palace of Thorns. There are precious scrolls hung on the purple-black walls on both sides of the place, and there are small but exquisite cabinets standing on the ground, with bunches of strange plants on them. Most of them Vito hadn't seen.
I have to say that Malesi has good taste at least, and inherited the excellent genes her ancestors inherited from the noble blood of the Eldar Empire, at least in the selection of artworks.
He glanced at his naked body, and he was only a thin line away from being completely naked. You know, the fabric of this dress is almost the same as the "debauchery" of the Dark Eldar .
"Damn it, I quite like this suit." Vito complained, and Mares, who was walking in front of him, smiled. She walked by a strange flower placed on the table in the corridor, and gently With a touch, the petals light up with a coquettish light.
Males turned her head to look at Vito, and smiled with a smile that Vito didn't like very much, "Don't worry, dear, I have quite a few clothes in my closet that are more suitable for you now."
"The one with negligible amount of fabric?" "Well, part of it, you know, this is Komorro after all."
Males said and walked to the end of the corridor, she opened the door in front of her with open arms and walked in, followed by Vito and Lilith.
This is a drawing room, you know, the kind of place every noble family has, a fireplace, comfortable blankets and sofa chairs, as well as specimens and delicate art decorations made of hunting game after hunting, although the specimens here It's not that common anymore.
I'm sure it's not very common, if you see these things in the house of an imperial nobleman, then you probably need to call the Inquisition to raid the house.
Why? Because the specimens hanging on the fireplace and the two walls include, but are not limited to, the head of the vampire, the horns of the bloodthirsty madman, the Nurgling and the scribe's bell in the closed stand cabinet, and the eagle of the Tzeentch demon Stuffed head with complete feather collection.
Vito looked at Dongxu around in surprise, while Marles smiled and took a goblet from a slave carrying a silver tray, and she signaled the slave to bring it to Vito and Lilith as well.
The human female slave walked up to the two of them with a tray, bowed her head very submissively, it seemed that Malesi had trained her very successfully, which also reflected Malesi's character and preferences in a sense.
She didn't whip the slave, her skin was still healthy and perfect, and she was very beautiful, and her red hair was braided and fell to her shoulders, and she seemed to be doing well here, like most of the decorations here, Perfect and beautiful.
Vito took down two goblets and handed one of them to Lilith. Afterwards, the female slave retreated with a nod from Males. She walked out of the living room and closed the door. Now only The three of them were left, the hostess and the two guests, and now they could speak some little secret that no one could hear.
Marles shook the goblet in her hand, stood in front of the fireplace and looked at Vito, the edges of her body were lit by the fire, and the long dress looked extraordinarily attractive.
"Thank you for helping me kill those assassins, my dear, you are so kind to me." Marles said with a smile, while Vito looked at the bubbles in the goblet, then turned his eyes to Marles, "Can you help me get the artifact now?"
"Well, if you are willing to do me a favor." Marles smiled charmingly, her cyan hair was pierced by the flames, shining with a luster that was almost crystal, Vito looked at the beautiful Komoro girl Jue sighed helplessly, and then held his forehead speechlessly.
"Why don't I find it strange at all?" "Very well, then let's get down to business." Malesi shook the glass and said, Vito sighed and nodded slightly, motioning Malesi to continue talking.
She smiled, and tapped the surface of the glass with her long and slender fingers, in which the amber wine had blurred bubbles, just like the color of her eyes.
"Have you seen Evelyn?" "That female gladiator? Yes, I have." "What do you think of her?"
Marles' words made Vito stunned for a moment, then shrugged, "He's pretty good at fighting, after all, he's a tribe warrior with a bright future." "Indeed, he's also very tasty."
Marles smiled and said that that smile made Vito's eyebrows twitch. He had seen that smile before, and it wasn't a very good memory. After one night, his head hurt all day.
"I am her secret patron. That chick came out of her own ark and became an outcast and a pirate. She was forced to flee to Comoros in a mutiny. I helped her and let her go to the arena to shine."
"She made you a lot of money? I think she's pretty good at playing." Vito asked with his hands in his arms, while Marles laughed and shook her fingers, "Her value is not just money, I There is no shortage of money."
Her evil smile finally shows up, the way she smiles every time she starts explaining her grand plans, so Vito knows what she's going to say next won't please him.
"I sponsored her to become famous in the arena. Although she has her own credit, I want to use her to challenge and kill Lailis, the queen of the arena, after climbing to the top of the gladiator."
She smiled charmingly, watching the bubbles rising from the wine glass, her smile became more and more cheerful, "Lailes' patron and boss is Victor, and I will reveal Evelyn's patron in the final competition The real identity, that is, me, and then she killed Lailis in front of all the Komoro dignitaries."
Vito raised his eyebrows and looked at Males, "You intend to humiliate Victor? This is not a wise decision, Males." "I prefer to call it a display of strength."
Marles turned her head gracefully and said, she looked at Vito with joy and interest in her eyes, in short, it made Vito very uncomfortable, "You also saw that the late consul's men dared to ambush us on the way we came Me, it means that they haven't recognized my strength yet."
"And if my gladiators can kill Victor's gladiators, and even if I humiliate Victor, he will have nothing to do with me in the future, I believe the remaining cabal consuls will think about it , how to evaluate my strength."
Vito smiled jokingly, "Victor will be **** off to death." "Of course he will, but don't worry, I know what to do. This is Comoro, and the consul is not elected by election, my dear."
Malesi pulled out her painful dagger, and lightly slashed the blade across the wine glass. The blade pierced against the glass but did not cause any damage. Comoro endorsed it, and nothing could be more representative than to challenge Victor and succeed in winning."
She pointed the dagger at Vito and smiled as she said, "And I want you to do me a favor and go and join Evelyn in next week's big fight, it will be a chaotic and interesting big fight, Vito Ket and all the consuls will go to see it, and you, help Evelyn kill Lailis on the spot."
Vito folded his arms and looked at Malesi hesitantly, "What benefits can I gain? What can I gain from being thrown into the arena by you to be involved in such a conspiracy?"
"Don't worry, dear, of course I won't let you work for nothing, and I will help you get the artifact later." "You provoked Victor, and then you want to take his artifact away? How do you do it?" "You don't have to worry about it, I have my own way."
Malesi walked to Vito's side as he spoke, and slipped his fingers from his shoulders. Malesi leaned closer to Vito's ear and whispered, "And you don't have any other choice, do you?"
Vito snorted, and didn't object to anything, while Malesi patted Vito's shoulder with a satisfied smile, "By the way, there are only two people in the Gladiator team, so your little girlfriend can't go. "
Vito looked at Malesi, a small communicator in the latter's arms suddenly rang, she smiled and took out the thing, shook it in her hand, and then walked towards the exit of the living room, "I have other things to do Deal with it, now, leave you two space, good luck, dear."
Males walked out happily wagging his fingers. Vito cursed and looked at Lilith awkwardly. The latter looked at him with his back bent, "You owe me an explanation, dear."
Lilith specifically emphasized the syllables of the last three words. Vito coughed awkwardly and cleared his throat, "Where do we start?"
"Start from the beginning and explain one thing to me clearly." "This may take a lot of time."
"We have plenty of time, dear." Lilith said with a smile, a smile that made Vito's crotch chill.
I'm sorry, I've been delayed for so long because of the review issue, which has affected everyone's reading. I'll try to avoid this kind of problem next time
