Chapter 423 The counterattack of the magic scorpion.
"Master Alvin, have you ever thought about how about—let's go?"
Old Mark chose his words carefully.
Alvin looked at Garrige's army. They were assigned a dozen or so obedient scorpions. Well, they were actually a bit silly scorpions.
"Many people have already advised me. Actually..."
Alvin scratched his head, as if there were a lot of lice on his head.
However, the more he scratched, the more itchy he felt, so he scratched his head furiously.
"I want to run too! I have thought that I can actually live a good life as long as I leave this place."
He continued to scratch his head.
Old Mark looked at Alvin sadly, really afraid that he would scratch his scalp off.
"But...where can I run to?"
Alvin put his fingers in his hair and his eyes were as wide as light bulbs.
"Did you know? That guy named Wumasi told me that as long as I cooperate with him, he promised to give me half of the world."
Old Mark's reaction after hearing this was as if he had been brutally killed from behind.
The eyelid of my left eye tried to close together, but it felt like there was a needle standing there in the middle. Although it kept shaking, the two halves of the eyelid just couldn't close.
Trembling constantly.
Alvin seemed to be drunk and muttered what had happened.
He didn't tell many people about Wumasi.
Although Old Mark had not known him for a long time, Alvin somehow felt like old friends at first sight and was particularly trusting.
Fortunately, the story of Alvin and Wumasi is not long, so old Mark quickly understood the whole process of the matter.
"Master, isn't this man a fool?"
Witch clan?
Old Mark can be considered a well-informed person, but he has never heard of anything about the Witch Clan.
"Master, do you mind if I report this matter to my master?"
Alvin didn't even think about it: "Okay, just say whatever you want. Besides, your master..."
Um……
A nervous expression suddenly appeared on Alvin's face, and he hesitated for a long time before he could say a complete sentence: "Your master, does he know about the matter between me and...? What does he think?"
Old Mark finally breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself: "My young master! You finally asked. It's been more than a day. I thought you wouldn't ask anymore! It's just that I almost missed the task that the master gave me.
I don’t even know how to finish it.”
Alvin's shyness prevented him from asking Old Mark about Lord Garrige's attitude right away, but now he couldn't help it anymore.
"Master Alvin! You need to change your perspective when thinking about problems!"
Old Mark stared at Alvin, trying to make him understand.
However, Alvin stared at his two innocent eyes and couldn't read the hint in Old Mark's words.
Old Mark sighed secretly. This was the first time he had seen such a slow rich man.
He had seen countless young men from upper-class aristocratic families in the imperial capital. Although they were all as stupid as pigs, they were as thoughtful as a honeycomb.
It would be better if the young master in front of him was pretending. Unfortunately, old Mark, who had astonishing experience, could tell at a glance that this young master Alvin really did not have such complex thoughts.
It's really hard to find such a simple person nowadays.
"If you think about it carefully, if my master... or something like that, how could he send me with so many people to protect you?"
What a joke, even though Old Mark was just a butler in Lord Garrige's house in the Imperial Capital, he was still a figure who would make the Imperial Capital tremble when he stamped his feet.
When Alvin heard this, he suddenly understood and couldn't help but beam with joy.
"Yes, why didn't you think of this?"
Only then did Alvin realize that he was really stupid.
"So, your lady is now..."
Old Mark was speechless. Shouldn't you have asked about these things as soon as we met yesterday?
Don't you think it's a little late to ask you now?
"Okay, at least I asked. Don't be afraid of being late if you have a good meal. Asking late is also a question."
Old Mark complained in his mind about Alvin's slowness.
"The lady is fine now. She is in a place called Skull Town."
Alvin was stunned: "Where is it? Shadow is really very clever."
"Huh?" Alvin suddenly realized something was wrong: "I don't even know where Julie is, how did you know?"
Old Mark looked down upon himself and said pretentiously: "The Garrig family has its own methods."
Alvin asked without thinking: "Well, how is Julie now? Her belly..."
Alvin stopped suddenly, as if someone had suddenly stuffed a sock in his mouth.
Stopped abruptly.
What I want to ask, I can't get the answer from old Mark.
A large amount of cold sweat broke out from Alvin's back. Fortunately, when he was about to finally speak out, he thought about it for a while and realized that his question should be asked to no one but Old Mark.
Old Mark didn't know, and was still waiting for Alvin's next words: "Master, what do you think of Miss?"
Alvin's mind was spinning: "Oh, I just want to ask her, her stomach always caught a cold the past few days, is she feeling better now?"
Old Mark recalled the scene when he met the young lady a few days ago: "The young lady didn't say anything. She looks good, but she is a little haggard. It's because she was too worried about you on the road."
When Alvin heard this, his heart tightened, and he forced a smile and said, "I'm relieved if you think so. No, I'm very relieved. It seems that your relationship is still very close."
Old Mark sighed and said, "I have been in Garrig's house for more than fifty years. I am very familiar with every plant and tree there. Any changes can be seen at a glance."
Alvin's heart tightened again: "Oh? You can tell it at a glance? You still have a sharp eye."
Alvin's words were meaningless, but he realized it immediately, so he chatted with old Mark. At this time of year, old Mark wanted to flatter Alvin, so naturally he was careful about what he said, for fear that Alvin would be dissatisfied.
.
But the atmosphere was a bit awkward again.
Fortunately, at this moment, one of the little leaders of the Garrige army, who didn't know what was going on, was angrily kicking the Scorpion in front of him, and kept cursing.
The scorpion didn't respond either, because in the scorpion's eyes, the little boss's kicks didn't even count as tickling it.
The little boss got so angry that he actually pulled out the long sword from his waist and slashed at the scorpion's big claws.
A "ding-dong" sound.
The long sword was actually bounced into the sky, and it took a long time before it landed vertically on the ground and penetrated the ground for more than ten centimeters.
A fierce light flashed in Scorpion's red eyes.
The scorpion's tail suddenly bent up, and its hook-shaped tail needle pointed directly at the little boss like a laser gun.
A "chirp" sound.
A black energy beam shot out from the tip of the scorpion's tail needle and rushed towards the little boss like lightning.
Alvin was shocked, and with a thought, a flash appeared behind the little boss, grabbed him, and immediately flashed a second time.
It was such a quick reaction that allowed the little boss to escape the fatal blow of the Scorpion.
The blow missed and hit the ground, creating a large crater with a radius of more than three meters.
When Alvin's figure appeared again, the little leader's face was already pure white.
He looked at the big hole on the ground and thought, if it was him who was hit just now, then...
With a "wow" sound, the little boss vomited on the spot.
Alvin looked at the other person, slapped his nose with his hand, and hurriedly left the place of trouble. This chapter has been completed!
