A very tall woman wearing a black wide-brimmed hat was walking on the street with five ice cream cones in her right hand and a large bag of food in her left hand. The pedestrians around her were one or two heads shorter than her. She walked on the street like a giant in a little kingdom. All she could see was the top of people's heads.
At this moment, a pile of heads blocked her way. The roads in Ancient Stoneway City were very wide. Under the frequent patrols of the guards, the roadside vendors did not dare to occupy the roads. Normally, there would not be a jam like this.
The Queen licked her ice cream nonchalantly. Driven by curiosity, she effortlessly squeezed through the crowd and came to the scene of the crime. She saw two human men dressed like a rooster and a black rhinoceros bullying two other humans, one old and one young.
Like most people, the Queen came to watch the show to pass the time. But when she saw the young girl and the old man, she suddenly felt that they looked familiar …
"Do you need anything?"
Myr's voice reached the Queen's ears. As usual, she, who was left to protect the shop, could only sit on the rocking chair and yawn.
"I heard that you have wheat to buy here."
"Yes, this way please."
The Queen Mother yawned loudly. She had no interest in the merchants and businesses that came and went. However, at this moment, she smelled a sweet scent.
* Slurp *
She opened her eyes and saw a young girl about ten years old holding a cone-shaped object in her hand. She was licking the cream-like food.
The Queen blinked and looked at the other person curiously.
"Hey, what are you eating?"
She asked the little girl who was dressed a little old-fashioned at the door.
"Ice cream. I bought it from a vendor near the city gate. It's very delicious."
Looking at the smile on the little girl's face, the Queen could not help but gulp. Then she said to her, "Let me have a taste …"
The little girl was stunned. She wondered how old this person was and how could she still be so greedy. Moreover, for a child in a remote village like her, she might not be able to eat ice cream even once a year. She could only afford it when she went to the city in winter.
"Then … just one taste."
Although she was reluctant, she still agreed. After all, the other person only wanted to have a taste.
A few seconds later, a young girl with a dull expression held an empty ice cream cone in her hand. A gust of wind blew and took away the paper in her hand.
Then, the Queen Mother, who had not had enough of the Queen Mother, found an excuse and went out. She went to the city gate and happened to see this scene.
"Ah!!"
The captain of the guards in armor screamed in pain. His subordinates also fell around him. No one dared to help.
"Listen up! From today onwards, everyone has to pay me a toll! "
Snooki, who was dressed in fancy clothes, shouted, but the Queen Mother was not interested in what he said at all. She only saw the goods in the Demon King's shop scattered all over the floor and stepped on by people.
Suddenly, she remembered what the Demon King had told her before he left. He seemed to have asked him to protect the shop. The Queen Mother did not understand the relationship between humans. She did not understand the relationship between merchants and shops at all. She could only understand it based on the relationship between her own race.
Therefore, she believed that these merchants were the same as the Demon King's workers. They were all on the same side, and these goods were still theirs.
In other words, the Demon King's things had been stolen by someone!
At this moment, she opened her mouth and ate five ice creams in one bite, shocking the surrounding passersby. Then, she walked forward in front of everyone. Keanus was still talking nonsense and criticizing the various signs in the city. When he saw a woman who was even taller than him walk forward, he thought that she was a gold digger who was trying to suck up to him.
He arrogantly raised his head and said, "If you want to curry favor with me, at least show your face."
Just as he finished speaking, his vision turned black. The Queen Mother had punched him in the face without another word. With a muffled bang, Snooki was sent flying.
The Queen Mother did not know how to reason with people. She did not directly kill him, which was the greatest mercy.
"Big sister?"
The young girl on the side recognized the person who had eaten her ice cream in one bite.
The carriage driver was also stunned. Then, a fierce expression appeared on his face. He pointed at the other party and shouted, "I don't like to hit women. If you know what's good for you, hurry up and apologize!"
However, the Queen Mother grabbed his finger. The carriage driver's face suddenly changed. His eyes widened and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
This woman! She was so strong!
Veins popped out on his face. His eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the other party's hand in disbelief.
He was quite confident in his strength, but in front of this woman, he could not even resist.
At this time, Snooki, who had fallen to the ground, stood up. His right eye was black and he felt intense pain with just a light touch. He looked up and saw that his subordinate, Hei Shi Hu, had not taught the other party a lesson. Instead, he was shaking hands with her.
"Don't just stand there! Hurry and take her down! "
"Ah!"
However, the carriage driver screamed. There was only the sound of bones cracking. With a bang, this burly man who was stronger than a bear fell to his knees, crushing the road.
This time, quite a few people were frightened. The monster incident in the restaurant had already made everyone nervous and tense. Coupled with the recent cases of missing people, the citizens of Ancient Stong City had already become frightened birds. Many people immediately turned around and left.
However, the one who was most surprised was Snooki. He could not believe that the freak that he had found did not even have a chance to fight back. Suddenly, with a bang, the Queen Mother kicked Hei Shihu in the stomach, sending him flying.
The old man and the young girl on the side were stunned. They thought that this tall woman was a vase in a shop or a concubine of some rich man. They did not expect her to be a powerful fighter!
"You! You! Do you know who I am?! You dare to hit me! I will throw you into prison! "
Snooki cursed fiercely at the Queen Mother. However, a look from the other party scared him.
"Good! You better leave this city. Otherwise, I will not let you go so easily! Let's go! "
With that, he quickly jumped into the carriage. Once inside, the carriage driver gritted his teeth and got up. Enduring the pain, he drove the carriage away.
"Thank you for your help! Heroine! If not for you, who knows how many children in our village would have starved to death. "
At this moment, the old man on the side suddenly bent down and thanked the Queen Mother. However, she did not say anything and left without looking back.
The young girl looked at the Queen Mother's back with admiration in her heart.
Among the fleeing crowd, a hooded man was hiding behind a stone pillar. He was one of the adventurers who came to investigate this time, Shadow Edward. He had witnessed everything and his expression was very bad.
"This is bad."
He muttered to himself, but no one noticed his existence.
This was a serious matter. According to the plan, after Arcath was captured, Ancient Stong City would definitely be in chaos in the next few days. At this time, the Adventurer's Guild would send people to help manage and restore order in Stong City.
However, the current situation was that the people from the Guild were still on the way, and Arcath's nephew had come to cause trouble. If he caused trouble and caused conflicts in the surrounding empires, then the Guild's intervention would be problematic.
Ancient Stong City was like a basin of water filled with silt. A casual stir would make the water muddy. For hundreds of years, this place had been full of conflicts. Countless bloody incidents had erupted between empires to fight for this place. It was only until Arcath became the city lord that such incidents did not happen again.
"This is too much of a coincidence."
Edward frowned. He could feel that there was an invisible hand controlling the situation. Everything was developing in a direction that was disadvantageous to the Guild.
Arcath was captured last night, and the young mistress gave the order in the afternoon. This was a sudden attack. Logically speaking, even if there was a spy, Snooki could not have rushed back so quickly.
Furthermore, when they were escorting Arcath, they did it secretly and did not announce it to the public. Arcath's face was also covered, but the people in the city seemed to know and came to watch.
He could only think of one possibility. Someone had spread the news that Arcath was going to be captured a few days ago.
If this was really the case, then the situation was very bad.
At this moment, a passerby ran past and blocked Edward's figure. When that person ran away, Edward was already gone.
