Chapter 47 Knowing the law and breaking the law
After the half-orc girl Elsa fell into a coma, she fell into a nightmare of escape.
A huge bloodthirsty monster was chasing after her, extending its claws to tear her body apart.
The girl's flesh and blood was gradually hollowed out, leaving only her soul still running.
No matter which direction you go, there is a dead end. The girl prayed and begged, but there was no one around.
Just when there was no way out, a gray figure descended from the sky, picked up the desperate Elsa and continued moving forward.
If this strange figure had provided her with protection and kept shuttling in the gap between black and white, her weak soul would have fallen into the monster's jaws long ago.
Just when the monster was about to catch up to the two of them, and countless dark magic hands had tightly surrounded Elsa, the protector who had always remained silent suddenly smiled.
A magnificent holy light that had never been seen before descended from the sky for him.
Under the holy light, the evil monster instantly disappeared.
"It's okay." The protector said to Elsa, "You are safe."
Before she finally closed her eyes, Elsa saw a pair of broad wings behind him.
However, the color of those wings is not pure white, but indescribably pitch black.
The nightmare ended abruptly.
When Elsa opened her eyes, she suddenly found herself lying in a strange room.
The hay that usually lay under her body was gone, replaced by a bed that was clean, soft, and so warm that it made her want to cry.
The blanket on her body was like a gentle embrace, making her feel very safe.
The light of the magic stone was a little brighter, and some vague figures appeared in the field of vision.
Elsa, who had always thought she was in the dark, felt a little dazzled. She blinked her eyes a few times, trying to adapt to the surrounding light.
The air was filled with the smell of holy water and herbs. Elsa touched the gauze bandages and discovered that all the wounds on her body had been carefully bandaged.
"That's great, Elsa, you finally woke up after sleeping for two days."
A beautiful face came close to her. Elsa subconsciously shrank back and rubbed her eyes a few times before realizing that she seemed to have seen this person before.
By the way, the blond girl who rescued her from Luke's devil's cave should be this person.
After taking off the dark clothes, the blonde lady became youthful and beautiful. After being carefully dressed and dressed, she looked radiant and beautiful, so beautiful that even Elsa blushed when she saw it.
"I...where is this?"
Elsa tried to sit up, but there was a sharp pain in her chest, which almost made her faint.
A solid and powerful arm immediately supported her. Elsa looked up and found a well-dressed, handsome nobleman with black hair and purple eyes, smiling knowingly at him.
"You don't have to get up in a hurry, you have to rest more now."
The noble young man put her body down. Elsa stared at him for a moment, and suddenly remembered his identity.
Isn't this the lord who sent someone to rescue him?
Although Elsa only met him once before she fell into coma, Elsa was already full of goodwill and trust in him.
Because he is different from others, he has the smell of the protector in his dream.
Although no one told her about Vincent breaking into the church and monastery alone that night, Elsa could understand that this man must have paid a lot for himself.
"Uncle, do you still need to continue to use healing techniques to heal her injuries?"
A strange voice sounded behind the lord. Elsa looked behind the lord and saw a girl wearing a witch costume with several herbal bags on her waist, looking at her with a smile.
The smell of the witch was also familiar, but it was not as impressive as the scent of the lord.
However, when the man obeyed the lord's order, dropped the pile of toy blocks in his hand, and chanted the healing spell, the holy white light in his hand made Elsa suddenly realize.
She has seen this light before!
It seems that she is also a benefactor who lifted the curse for herself.
The three people in front of me have all saved my life.
After confirming the situation, Elsa's eyes shed tears and she kept saying "thank you".
If her body could move freely, she would definitely get out of bed and kneel at their feet to give thanks.
If they hadn't tried every means to save him, he would have either been tortured and humiliated by Luke or died under that fatal curse.
"Don't worry, Miss Elsa, this is uncle's castle, no one dares to bully you anymore."
The quiet girl who had completed the healing spell casually comforted Elsa for a few words, then hid aside to play with wooden toys.
It can be seen that the treatment is just a routine matter, and the attraction of toys to the witch should be greater than taking care of the little orc girl.
Elsa accidentally glanced at the thing, and saw that the child was playing with a pile of wooden parts that had somehow been assembled into a wooden ball, and was probably using his brain to dismantle it.
It seems a bit fun, but I don’t understand it...
The blonde girl is still more stable and gentle, but she looks at the lord with such fear, how come she is like a little mouse looking at an old cat?
"Master, we have used up the panacea." The blond lady picked up a delicate little medicine bottle, weighed it and reported to the lord, "Do you still want to buy a bottle from the mages?"
"Of course, it will be used until this young lady recovers completely." Vincent flirted with Niniya and said in her ear, "I will buy a few more bottles at a time, and I can also do a group purchase with others and let the great magician give me one."
Friendly price.”
Panacea?!
Elsa was startled, so nervous that the hairs all over her body stood on end.
Are they giving themselves a panacea?
The All-In-One Potion is a secret medicine that can completely restore physical strength and magic power. It is said that the formula of this medicine is a gift from the gods to the world. It is refined by the top pharmacists of the Mage Guild using various precious materials. Its extraordinary medicinal effect is comparable to
Called a miracle.
However, good things often have a drawback, which is the extremely high price.
Elsa had heard from her tribesmen in the past that a bottle of this medicine could be sold for more than one hundred gold coins, and it was often expensive but not marketable.
In orc clan tribes, chiefs often exchange land or a large number of slaves for a bottle of panacea.
She quickly glanced at the bedside table next to her bed and saw three identical empty bottles on it!
Although she was born well and was the daughter of the leader of the Snow Leopard clan, she could not afford three bottles of panacea, and she might even need more.
What's more, now she is just a humble slave.
"Ouch! The panacea is too expensive!" Elsa blurted out excitedly, "I'm almost cured and I don't need such expensive medicine."
If a slave costs someone so much, it would be difficult to compensate even if it costs his life.
Now I am just working as a horse for the lord, and I may not be able to lose a few bottles of panacea in my life.
Orcs are upright and can't stand the guilt of being given charity without being able to repay it.
"This little money is nothing, life and health are important." Vincent said nonchalantly, "But you don't have to worry, someone has paid for this panacea for you."
"Who is it?" Elsa asked in surprise, "Besides you, is there anyone else who can help me?"
"Luke will pay this money, who wants him to be smart enough to go against me." Vincent sneered, "I have no worries anymore, and the next step is to make him regret it."
"What are you going to do?" Elsa trembled with excitement and couldn't help but want to give it a try, "Let me take you there, I know where his secret is hidden."
"Don't rush, don't rush. As a lord, I have a lord's way." Vincent pretended to be mysterious and said, "We must govern the country according to the law. Businessmen who break the law will naturally be punished by law."
"But Luke has been doing business for so many years and it's okay. Is he breaking the law?"
Naive Elsa obviously didn't understand what it meant.
"How can a businessman who has reached his level not break the law! He has been evading taxes, smuggling, and selling prohibited items. He is knowingly breaking the law and adding crime to crime." Vincent's eyes flashed with a sharp light, "In my territory,
