By the time Merlin walked out of the sewer, it was already evening. He was not interested in accompanying Hastings to munch on his rations underground. After tidying up his clothes and hat, he strolled directly to the most famous restaurant in the city and ordered a sumptuous meal. After gorging himself, he picked a bathing place to relax.
However, not long after he sat in the bath, a figure appeared in front of him.
Merlin seemed a little surprised when he saw the person. "You guys are much faster than I thought."
D 'Adrion took off his dusty wizard robe and boots and walked into the bath naked. The hot water stimulated his skin, and he could not help but let out a moan of comfort. "You're our key surveillance target. We have to keep a close eye on you," D' Adrion said as he sat opposite Merlin.
D 'Addarion said as he sat down opposite Merlin. Now, there was only a layer of mist between them. D' Addarion's voice came from the other end of the mist. "I tried not to think too much about it, but you left Gudilesi without saying a word at this critical juncture. Moreover, you chose to go to Azure Bay out of all the other places. What do you think if you were me?"
"If I remember correctly, we're allies now," Merlin sighed. "But President D 'Adrion, you don't seem to treat an ally like this."
"Given your wonderful and legendary past, I'm afraid it's difficult for ordinary people to completely trust you." D 'Adrion leaned forward slightly and looked straight into Merlin's eyes. "I don't know what kind of agreement Rob has with you. Since he chose to trust you, we can only trust his choice because he's the patron saint of the human race. But I still have to say something first. If I find out that you're doing something inappropriate or you intend to hurt him, you'll become the enemy of the entire human race."
"Is this a threat?"
"No, it's just a fact. Putting aside personal feelings, you know better than any of us what Rob means to the human race. These two days, I've been feeling that I've missed out on something. It wasn't until I heard the news that you came to Azure Bay that I realized what I was worried about. Those things have been too quiet during this time. They knew that Rob was being apotheosized, but they didn't do anything. This is not in line with their style."
"Hmm, your worries are not unreasonable." Merlin's expression remained unchanged. He picked up the iced juice provided by the baths and said, "Those things are not only in the temple and the Matthews family, but you can rest assured that Gudilesi is my territory. Without my permission, no one can enter my rabbit hole. As long as Rob succeeds in apotheosizing in two days, the crisis facing human beings will naturally be solved."
"I hope so." D 'Addarion gave up trying to find any clues from Merlin's face. The latter was an old monster who had lived for more than nine hundred years. It was impossible for him to be so easily seen through.
。 "Since you're here, I'll tell you the news I just received." Merlin took a sip of juice and said, "A group of monsters will attack Azure Bay tonight."
D 'Idarion frowned. "Impossible. After the fall of Armored Rock City, we increased the surveillance of those monsters. Once they show signs of gathering, I will get the information immediately."
Merlin shook his head. "It's not that. This time, it's a group of new monsters. Who told you that the Crack of the Abyss only appears on land?"
D 'Addarion was shocked when he heard this. "When will the attack happen?!"
Merlin put down the glass and said unhurriedly, "Well, if it's fast, half a magic hour. If it's slow, it'll be one magic hour later."
If it weren't for the fact that this guy was now naked, D 'Addarion would have pulled this guy's collar out of the pool and hung him on the city gate.
"Such an important thing, why didn't you tell us earlier?!" D 'Addarion did not doubt the accuracy of this news. Although Merlin usually liked to play pranks, he would not joke about such things.
"You didn't tell me how you found me, did you? We're even. " Merlin said lazily in the pool. Seeing that D 'Addarion was about to go berserk, he said, "Alright, alright. Don't overestimate me. I'm not omniscient. How could I have guessed what happened tonight in advance? In fact, I only got the exact news before entering the bathing area."
"Strange. There are only 40,000 civilians in Azure Bay. What's the monster's target?" D 'Addarion muttered to himself.
Merlin lowered his head and looked at his little toy duck.
"They're coming for you?" D 'Addarion seemed to have thought of something, and his tone was not friendly.
"Rob is at the most critical moment of the apotheosis. He's only one step away. They can't find him, so naturally, they'll target me. There's a simpler way. As long as they kill me, the apotheosis ceremony will not be able to proceed," Merlin explained patiently.
"But you don't look worried at all."
"Because I left some clues for you in Gudilesi. If you're smart enough, you'll come to Azure Bay tonight. It turns out that I'm not wrong about you." Merlin's words made someone gnash his teeth in anger.
"Are you planning to use me as a free guard?!" D 'Addarion said unhappily.
"As I said, we're allies. From your standpoint, President D 'Addarion, I'm sure you don't want me to die in Azure Bay. So, strictly speaking, you're not helping me now. You're just fulfilling your duty and doing what you have to do." Merlin blinked. "You see, if you think about it this way, it's not that hard to accept, right?"
D 'Addarion was infuriated by Merlin. He was too lazy to refute him. He stood up from the pool and walked toward Merlin with a straight face. After that, he cast a Medulla Oblongata. D' Addarion wanted to knock Merlin out and send him back to Gudilesi. However, he overestimated his close-range combat ability as a magician and a nerd. Fortunately, his opponent was also a master who lacked training. The two were evenly matched. When the people below arrived, they saw D 'Addarion and Merlin fighting fiercely.
A group of people quickly separated the two. D 'Addarion covered his bleeding nose and said in a muffled voice, "Take this guy away. Use the Association's teleportation circle to return to Gudilesi."
"What about you, President?"
