Squinting her eyes at the red-haired girl in sportswear, Tallulah recognized her identity, but even so, she did not dissipate the flame in her hand.
She had only met the Regicide a few times, and was not yet at the point where she could confide in him.
"Tallulah, won't you explain?"
The King Slayer raised his chin and nodded at Talina a few times, then took a step back cautiously.
The plan was a little different from what she had expected. The encounter was originally planned to be with only Tallulah, but now there was a third person, which made the Kingslayer alert.
Everyone knows the situation of the infected in Ursus. Once they appear, everyone will condemn them. She doesn't dare to gamble with this unknown person and bet on whether Tallulah is still the same as before.
She doesn't dare to gamble, nor can she afford to gamble!
She couldn't possibly bet the future of the people behind her on whether Tallulah would change.
"Put your weapons away first. Is this the person Tallulah wants to see?"
The tense atmosphere brought the alley, which had just been filled with warmth, to freezing point in an instant. In order to avoid repeating Dundelk's mistake last time, Talina took the initiative to step forward and act as a peacemaker.
"I'm asking her!"
Faced with Talina's initiative to ease the situation, the King Slayer did not appreciate it at all, and even shook the dagger in his hand, the threat was self-evident.
"She's the doctor in our team, and also my...lover, so put your knife down!"
Pulling Talina back, the flame in Talullah's hand suddenly grew larger: "If you insist on showing your weapon, then my trip will be in vain!"
"Please find out what's going on! King Slayer!"
"You need me! Not me needing you!"
Showing her strong side, Tallulah stood confidently in place and dispersed the flames in her hands.
Even though she longed for professionals like the King Slayer to join, it did not mean that she could allow herself to be manipulated and give up her bottom line endlessly.
His eyes were dark and uncertain, and the hand holding the dagger began to hesitate.
Tallulah was right. It was they who took the initiative to contact the guerrillas. Whether they should say it or not, they really grasped their weakness.
But if we put them in like this, there is no guarantee of safety...
"You said she was a doctor, right?"
Pointing at Talina, the King Slayer picked up the dagger and gently cut a hole in the palm of his hand, and bright red blood dripped from it.
"Prove it, or we'll just say goodbye and pretend we've never met!"
"Tallulah, this..."
Talina looked at Talullah, asking for her opinion.
The King Slayer's sudden act of seeing blood left Talina bewildered. She had never thought that someone would actually pull a knife on her.
For such an inexplicable reason...
This made it difficult for Talina, who was planning to leave to avoid suspicion, to leave or not.
"Go ahead. I'll go with you."
Pulling Talina forward, Talula cautiously put Talina behind herself.
There was no need for Talina to go forward and touch this small wound. She could just use the Originium skill from a distance.
A soft white light appeared from Talina's palm, bringing a hint of brightness, which was still dazzling even next to Talullah's flames.
With a flick of her fingertips, the ball of light condensed by Talina flew towards the King Slayer under her control.
The King Slayer swayed her body and subconsciously wanted to dodge, but looking at Talina's serious face and Talullah's reputation, she chose to stay where she was.
Well, Talulah's reputation has already spread among the infected, so there is no need to expose her other bad aspects for the sake of their small group.
In other words, they are not qualified.
They had these few small fish roots (which they couldn't eat) and Tanilula was the bait. If the group behind Tanilula really wanted to do something bad to them, they wouldn't have brought a short guy who looked like he had no fighting ability with them.
This is not the way to show weakness to the enemy.
Under Talina's control, the light ball successfully touched the King Slayer's palm, and then dispersed. Star-like light particles shone in the King Slayer's palm and merged into her wound.
Then, the wound disappeared, and the King Slayer's palm returned to its previous state, with only the cut glove as proof of what had happened before.
Turning to leave, the King Slayer waved and turned back to reveal a cold profile.
"Follow!"
After saying that, he took the lead and walked deeper into the alley.
“Let’s go, stay with me later, don’t run around, this is not a guerrilla force!”
Warning Talina not to run around, Talula pulled Talina and followed.
It's not that Talulah intentionally speculates about the infected people here, she has simply seen too many of them. The infected people who are already in an oppressed state are likely to do anything, and it is impossible to predict at all.
Talina's identity as a normal person is not a good thing here. There is a natural barrier between her and them. In order to prevent unnecessary trouble, Talula had no choice but to give Talina instructions.
"Don't talk for a while. I will answer all your questions for you. OK?"
Nodding, Talina gave Talulah a lovely smile.
"You're so good! I'll take you out to play when we get back!"
Reaching out and pinching Talina's cheek, Talullah made a promise to Talina.
Because of Kosice's obstruction, her last trip to Dundelk and Talina's world of two successfully turned into an escape journey. Not only was the gift promised to Talina gone, but even the clothes Talina bought were burned by the flames.
Just make up for it this time!
...............
The dark and damp alley was filled with a rotten smell. If she stayed here for too long, Talina had no doubt that her bones would rot as well.
But this place that even stray dogs would not choose has become the home of these dozen infected people.
After climbing over a wall and walking for almost half an hour, Tallulah and the others finally arrived at their destination.
An abandoned toilet!
Facing the two's surprised looks, the King Slayer simply shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's secluded here. No one would bother to come here and find trouble."
"You've seen the situation, Tallulah. We're at the end of our rope now. Chernobog is aggressively wiping out infected people because of that lab."
"Most of our supplies were lost during the cleanup, so we can't give you anything..."
Speaking of this, the Kingslayer scratched his head embarrassedly.
Their situation was indeed dire, but even so, Tallulah still chose to contact them. I don't know what she was trying to achieve...
At this point, the person has been brought back, and even if the King Slayer wants to regret it, it is too late. He can only summon the infected people hiding nearby.
"Everyone come out, meet new friends, too..."
After a pause, the Kingslayer lowered his eyes, and then he spoke slowly.
"Our future...leader!"
Volume 3: Chapter 171: Lighting
Amid the rustling sound of instruments, some angry mountain men came out from the secluded place behind Zhou Lingwei, with fierce eyes, clenched fists and tense bodies.
"Put this thing away!"
The Regicide shouted sharply, raising his eyebrows.
She had just had a conflict with Tallulah, and now these guys were behaving like this. She couldn't stand it if it happened again.
"Lyudmila, is this the leader on the tundra you were talking about?"
A neutral voice was heard, and a white-haired Ursus boy emerged from behind the King Slayer.
Talina poked her body out from hiding and looked at the white-haired Ursus.
To be honest, it was the first time that Talina saw such a... um... androgynous boy. Even if it was a man as masculine as Margaret, Talina could tell at first sight that the other person was a girl.
The sudden appearance of the white-haired Ursus really surprised Talina.
But that was all. Talina's gaze stayed on him for less than three seconds before she retreated behind Talullah and grabbed the hem of her clothes.
This place is surrounded by a group of desperadoes. If you know about it, it might be okay, but if you don’t, you might think it’s a gang fight scene!
After shouting at the group of people, the King Slayer stood sideways and gave way to the white-haired Ursus boy next to him.
"Let me introduce him to you. He's Broken Bone, you can call him An..."
"Just call me Bonebreaker. It's the only name I have!"
Raising a hand to stop the Kingslayer's introduction, Boneshard stood up and looked at Tallulah.
The blood of the red dragon makes Tallulah look awe-inspiring without even being angry. Just by standing there, she exudes an invisible oppressive force.
Squinting his eyes, he quietly took a small step back, touching the ground with his toes, forcing himself to face Tallulah.
"so small?"
Looking at Broken Bone's young face, Tallulah had the same thought as Talina at this moment: is this a boy or a girl?
He looked at Talina beside him again, but was misunderstood by Talina and was pinched on the waist.
"I'm a girl! What are you thinking?! Isn't it obvious enough?!!!"
Whispering softly beside Talula, Talina deliberately bumped her big white rabbit twice, making Talula blush.
The two people's actions were very covert, and no one saw it except themselves.
With this interruption, Tallulah's dominance dissipated, and Broken Bones standing in front of her breathed a sigh of relief.
The feeling that Tallulah gave him just now was not that of an ordinary Vaifan, but that of a more terrifying beast!
Even though he had met many people with that guy, no one was like Tallulah. Just by standing there, she made him feel powerless.
"Our people are here. As you can see, there are only a few of us."
Pointing at the people with Originium crystals exposed on their bodies, the King Slayer spread his hands and completely let down his guard.
Tallulah's power just now was not directed at Bonebreaker. Everyone present experienced it indiscriminately, and the Kingslayer was no exception.
Silently calculating his chances of winning against Tallulah in his mind, the Kingslayer shook his head helplessly.
I can't beat him, I can't beat him at all. Even if I can gain some advantages with the Originium skills, it can only delay him temporarily.
"I remember the letter said there were about thirty people?"
Turning around and taking a look at the dozen or so people, Tallulah raised her eyebrows. The King Slayer's letter mentioned more than just these few people.
After hearing what Tallulah said, the infected people present lowered their heads with pale faces.
Seeing them like this, Tallulah stopped asking questions because she already had the answer in her heart.
He was probably captured by Chernobyl's patrol team, otherwise he wouldn't be hiding here.
"We are just a handful of people. We can lower the terms we negotiated before. If you like us, we'll go with you. If not, then we can just part ways amicably."
The King Slayer waved his hands weakly and raised his head. Even though they were at a distance, Tallulah could still see the black under his eyes.
It seems that some bad things have happened in the city recently.
Thinking of this, Tallulah asked, "Is there any news from outside recently? If so, please tell us everything. Don't hide anything. This concerns everyone's safety."
Is this... accepting them?
No need for inspection?
No need to pay tribute?
The Kingslayer looked at Tallulah in surprise, unable to believe his ears.
"Why? Do you have any other ideas?"
"No! Not really, recently..."
He told Tallulah all the recent events in Chernobyl. The King Slayer didn't care whether it was useful or not. He just told her everything he knew to show his sincerity.
Tallulah's magnanimity was beyond her expectations. She had thought that the leader of the tundra would tell them something to do so that she could get some leverage over them.
This is what is commonly known as a letter of allegiance!
It's no wonder that the Kingslayer thinks so. Ever since Chernobog started the purge, she and Bonebreaker have been running around for the future of the team.
Among them, most of the infected leaders gave them some difficult-to-fulfill conditions, including but not limited to assassinating some bigwigs in Chernobyl, saying that it was to test their sincerity.
