However, just as the Great Mages of the Parliament rushed to the center of Duriel, Evelyn and the others in the hotel heaved a huge sigh of relief.
Over the past few days, they had actually been keeping an eye on the movements of the pier. After all, the success or failure of the several years of preparations depended on this, so they could not help but feel nervous. And now, the chaos at the pier finally proved that all their efforts had not been in vain … The unusual movements of the shoals of fish had already played the prelude to a catastrophe.
"The goal that has been planned for many years is finally about to be realized."
Evelyn looked at the night sky outside the window and muttered in a daze.
She was thirty-four years old this year. Ever since she ascended to the position of chief four years ago, this plan had always been carried out according to the instructions of the former Her Majesty. Even when the new Queen Talia ascended to the throne, the mission that had lasted for many years still continued. Now that it was time to carry it out, she naturally felt an unprecedented excitement in her heart.
The hatred towards Lachman was actually deeply buried in the blood of the Thukk tribe. This hatred had been passed down through the generations. Regardless of whether it was the Church or the Parliament that ruled Lachman, they only had one belief: The fertile land where Lachman was located should have belonged to Eskar!
"I didn't expect everything to go so smoothly. The mages of Lachman are only so-so," Miranda said from the side.
However, her voice was not loud, and it was more like she was talking to herself. Jill rolled her eyes at her. "If it wasn't for Her Majesty's great talent and strategy, there wouldn't be so many people advancing wave after wave. How could there be today's results? To put it bluntly, we only achieved this by standing on the foundation of countless people's efforts. "
After saying that, Jill still could not hide the excitement in her heart. "But in terms of contribution, we are definitely the biggest. I wonder how Her Majesty will reward us …"
"We haven't even started, and you're already thinking about Her Majesty's reward? As the chief of several Eskar tribes, you're still thinking about this all day long. You … when will you grow up? "
Evelyn poked Jill's forehead and asked, "Have you prepared the potions? Don't mess it up when the time comes. "
"Don't worry, I've prepared three portions. It's definitely enough."
Jill waved the small potion bottle in her hand, then pointed outside the window. "Then, are we just going to sit here and wait?"
"I've waited for years. Can't I wait for a few days?" Evelyn swirled the wine glass in her hand and said, "Nobody knows when exactly it will start. Maybe one day, maybe three days. Just listen to the movements and act well."
"I really envy Doris at times like this. I wonder how she's doing with that guy from the Kingdom of Karen. Tsk tsk, she's been holding herself back for the past few days. She'll probably pounce on you the moment she enters the door, right? "
Although Miranda's tone was teasing, it was inevitable that she was a little jealous. For the women of the Thook Tribe, this kind of feeling was the same as when a few men talked about a "fair, rich, and beautiful woman" who had been fooled by her friend. They might not seem to care, but deep down, they were very envious.
"Doris has great stamina. I wonder if that Roddy will be of any use. I reckon he'll surrender after a few rounds. Tsk tsk, when he's controlled by Doris, do you think she'll be willing to let me have a taste? "
Evelyn was amused by Jill's fantasizing look. "What are you thinking? Doris knows what she has to do, unlike you who only wants to have a taste. Did you come to Lachiman just to find a man? "
"Hehe … I'm just saying."
The few people who were chatting and laughing in low voices were not wrong. Doris was really a little "stifled" at the moment.
This "stifled" had a "physiological" factor. During the few dates with Roddy, she had taken the initiative to touch and hug him. The burning desire in her body could not be extinguished through the final action. This was the most unbearable for a veteran who had "tasted the sweetness." Therefore, Doris had already planned to "have a good time" tonight.
Psychologically, the abnormal phenomenon at the dock today had made her realize that this was her last chance to control Roddy. Therefore, in order to increase the success rate of the "Suggestion Spell", she even lowered herself and asked Jill for a bottle of aphrodisiac, just to make sure that nothing went wrong.
Sitting in the hotel room, she purposely changed into Eiseka's unique gauze dress and took off her underwear. Under the dim light in the room, the faintly discernible scenery of the triangular area and the bulge on her chest could definitely capture the heart of any man. And when Roddy knocked on the door as promised, just as Miranda had guessed, she went up to him with a fragrant wind.
"Lord Roddy, I've been waiting for a long time …"
Doris was not tall, but she was definitely voluptuous. Roddy originally wanted to say a few polite words before entering, but this beauty was even more impatient than a man. She directly pressed her chest against him.
Thinking about it from another perspective, in a country dominated by women, Doris's proactive behavior seemed normal. Of course, Roddy was in his "Best Actor" mode at the moment. He squinted his eyes and smiled unrestrainedly. He looked down and exclaimed, "This dress is so beautiful. Tsk tsk, it's so beautiful."
Doris's gauze dress was almost transparent, and it had a low-cut cut. Although she said the dress was beautiful, her gaze had penetrated the dress. As Roddy praised her, he reached out to hold Doris's buttocks. It was smooth and full of elasticity, and he could not help but pinch it a few times. The latter panted and lightly hammered his chest. She said coquettishly, "Lord Roddy is so impatient. Didn't we agree to talk about the cooperation with Eiseka?"
She led Roddy to the living room of the suite and let Roddy sit on the armchair. She casually picked up the wine with the potion and took a sip. Then, she boldly spread her legs and sat on Roddy's lap. She handed the wine over. "I wonder what kind of cooperation you like the most?"
This small detail was naturally to dispel Roddy's suspicions. After all, the potion was not poisonous. It was just an aphrodisiac. The effect would be better if both of them drank it.
"Of course it's a deep cooperation. It's best for everyone to promote communication …"
Roddy took the wine glass and replied with narrowed eyes.
Although he was acting, he was not Invincible East. It was natural for him to have some reaction when being teased by a beautiful woman. Doris was originally a "vacuum" and knew how to choose a place to sit. With a slight rub, her eyes immediately became misty. The effect of that sip of wine came quickly, and she felt a warm current spreading from below her abdomen … Now that she heard Roddy's pun, she could not control the desire in her heart. She hugged Roddy's neck and wanted to kiss him …
But she did not get a passionate response from Roddy. The only thing she felt was a sudden sense of weightlessness and dizziness …
"Ah —!"
Doris opened her eyes and realized that the scene in front of her had been turned upside down. In less than half a second, her body had been imprisoned by an invisible force. She was like a mummy in a pharaoh's tomb, with her arms folded and her legs together, hanging upside down in front of Roddy!
Due to the gravity, her thin dress hung down, and Doris instantly felt a chill in her crotch. But when she saw Roddy's suddenly expressionless expression and felt the magic power that she could not break free from, her scalp went numb …
Everything seemed to be out of her control.
"Lord Roddy, what are you —"
"You can still pretend in this state. It's a pity that Tuk women don't go to the opera house."
A sudden voice came from the left. Doris turned her head in fear and realized that the female sorcerer who had just slaughtered her opponents in the arena this morning was sitting at the dining table!
She saw with her own eyes how Merlinsala killed all her opponents in one move, so she knew how terrifying she was. But when she turned her gaze back, she was more afraid of the "unfamiliar" Roddy in front of her.
Had he been pretending all this time?
Doris was not a weak woman. Even in the face of the greatest crisis in her life, she did not forget to resist. After quickly gathering her spirit, she suddenly cast "Mental Shock" at Roddy. This was an offensive mental skill that she had always been proud of. If an ordinary person was hit by it, they would faint on the spot, or even become an idiot.
But when the spell was cast silently, her mouth opened wide …
Because Roddy did not even frown. He turned his head and said to Merlinsala, "Erm, let's turn her around. Looking at her like this … it's a little weird."
Doris was not wearing any undergarments, and when she was hanging upside down, her lower body was completely naked. Roddy was sure that Merlinsala had done it on purpose …
"You really know how to have tender feelings for women."
Merlinsala rolled her eyes and waved her hand to make Doris turn around. This process seemed a little rough, and caused Doris to scream again. But the sudden tightening of the magical force made her shut her mouth tightly. Her face was purple from the pain and was twisted badly …
This was obviously Merlinsala's "little trick." Although she did not say it, she definitely had a lot of opinions about Doris's outfit and behavior. But then again, Merlinsala had a whole new level of respect for Roddy. After all, "seduction" was usually the most effective method for humans who had a strong desire to reproduce. And as a "Dragons", Roddy was able to control his desire and keep Doris in the dark from the beginning.
In fact, not to mention humans, the gossip that the Dragons created was no better than that of humans. In her eyes, a man who could control his lower body was the type who "thought with his brain." He was definitely a "plus".
Pfft, what am I thinking …
Merlinsala refocused her attention on Doris, but found that she had not given up resisting. After being turned around, Doris endured the pain of the magical restraint and launched a "mental shock" at Roddy again. But after a long time, she still did not see any reaction from Roddy. When she was about to use all her strength to launch a third attack, Roddy waved his hand. "Don't waste your energy. That little ability of yours is nothing in front of me."
"I …"
Doris's mouth opened slightly as if an egg had been stuffed in it. Could it be that Roddy was immune to my spells from the beginning to the end?!
So all the "Hint Spell" that she had used previously were all useless? Then what about the "interrogation" at the hotel? Could it be that he was pretending?!
In just a few seconds, Doris realized what kind of trap she had walked into. The bone-deep fear made her tremble all over. Even her words became stuttering. "What … What do you want?"
"That's what I wanted to ask too."
Roddy stared deeply into Doris's eyes. "What — what do you want?"
*****
Just as Doris was experiencing the most terrifying day of her life, the military port of Duriel was on standby due to the orders they had just received.
In the face of an emergency, the Lassiman Parliament was much more mobile than usual. Within half an hour, the mages had completed the three emergency defense measures proposed by President Jeremy and passed them unanimously. These measures included raising the security level of the civilian and military ports. At the same time, the few soldiers in the city were to gather and prepare for war.
Fear of the sea was an emotion all Lassiman people had. Even powerful mages would not think that they could ignore the threat of the sea. Therefore, after several orders were issued, the two ports on the outskirts of Duriel became bustling. The civilian port was under martial law, while the military port began to display magic circles and military supplies. The footsteps of the soldiers running back and forth could not be drowned out by the waves.
"What is going on …"
"I don't know. Just follow the orders. Maybe everything will be fine tomorrow …"
The soldiers at the bottom knew what they were about to face. The two guards on duty at the port looked at the seawater under the moonlight. They were not used to the sudden tension in the air. They even saw that the magic circles of the floating space tower were ready to be activated at any time. The four roads leading from Duriel to the port were quickly cleared to make it easier for supplies and troops to pass through.
"What could be in the sea that could threaten us?"
"You don't know? Many people died at the port just now because a large fish suddenly appeared from the bottom of the water and jumped onto the shore. It actually pulled people down! "
"What you said is interesting. How far can the fish run when it comes to shore? Can't it just stay away from the shore? "
The soldier who answered sneered. Obviously, he did not think that this was a problem at all. But when he looked at the sea in front of him again, his eyes suddenly widened.
"What … What is that?!"
The other soldiers looked in the direction of the voice and immediately felt uncomfortable. There were many round protrusions on the surface of the sea in front of them. At first glance, it looked like the bumpy back of a toad.
But they quickly realized that this was definitely not a normal phenomenon. While they loudly sounded the alarm, the magic lights that were already on standby quickly shone beams of light at the sea in front of them. This light almost scared the shit out of the soldiers on duty!
