Chapter 37
The next morning after waking up.
The sun shone gently into Sirius's bedroom, filling the room with a warm light. The courtyard outside seemed particularly peaceful on this sunny morning. Occasionally, a few birdsong accompanied the breeze, bringing a touch of fresh air.
Of course, this has to ignore the messy flowers and plants in the courtyard. After all, after yesterday's double destruction of wind, rain and scorching sun, there is not much complete scenery here.
Originally, this small manor seemed a bit shabby, and could only feel superior compared to the residences of Ankh civilians. However, after being scorched by the sun, it was obviously no longer what it should have been.
"My destructive power is quite incredible..."
Sirius touched his head, which was still a little dizzy, and began to slowly adapt to the changes in the New Delhi Manor.
In other words... changes in Anka.
It's impossible for him to say that all this has nothing to do with him.
However, Sirius's last memories were basically before he fainted. His awakening yesterday actually only lasted for a moment before he passed out again due to physical exhaustion.
It can't go on like this...
He is really tired of living a passive life, relying on other people's faces and attitudes no matter what he does.
The most important thing is that this choice did not bring much improvement to his survival probability, but made him almost burp.
Just as Sirius was leaning on the window sill, thinking, and overlooking a dozen maids helping to deal with the burned flowers in the courtyard, there was a knock on the bedroom door behind him.
"Your Highness Sirius, are you awake?"
"Well, come in."
When Rian walked in, he saw that Sirius had already gotten out of bed and was still leaning against the window sill blowing the cold wind. He suddenly panicked. .
"Your Highness Sirius, why are you up now? You have just recovered from a serious illness. You should take good care of yourself." "
It's okay... I'm much better. I'm not that fragile."
Sirius waved his hand and said casually. road.
"Okay... But Your Highness Siris, I have something to report now. Is it convenient for you now?"
Lian hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to express all the worries he wanted to say most. Because no matter what, he was the one who indirectly put Sirius in danger.
There were some words that he couldn't keep in his heart forever. When he said them, he was giving an explanation to himself, and even more so to Sirius.
Even if these words would cause him to suffer death, he would not feel any regrets.
"You want to explain to me who gave you the medicinal soup that day, right?"
Sirius narrowed his eyes. If he had never spoken about this topic so directly before, after all, that sinister and vicious woman didn't know who she was. Are you just hiding in some dark corner and eavesdropping?
But the problem is...now that this group of people wants to completely silence him, why is he still pretending to be here? Is it necessary for him to continue to be so cautious?
The calmness on Sirius' face surprised Rian, but soon he felt that his surprise was a bit ridiculous.
Who is the second prince? Would he really know nothing and then lie in bed until now? Obviously not.
"Yes, my subordinate does want to report this matter to you..." "If this is the matter, then there is no need to talk about it." Sirius waved his hand and interrupted Rian bluntly.
If the woman was still eavesdropping at this moment, Sirius felt that he should take the opportunity to express his attitude to the other party.
"Lian, I know who the person who wants to kill me is. There are many things you don't know about. I can't explain it to you. And the less you know, the safer you and your family will be. .
Do you understand?"
Sirius pretended to be profound and acted like the Riddler, leaving Ryan opposite him confused and completely unaware of what his master Sirius was talking about at this moment.
However, after these few words, Lian also understood that Sirius probably wasn't prepared to let him know too much about the inside story of the political struggle.
This may be to protect a civilian like him who has no power to resist. As worthy of being the most respectable second prince in his heart, Lian felt that he had no other way of repaying him except giving everything, including his life, for him.
"Let's put this topic aside for now. I'm a little curious about the final result of the Lizardmen's invasion?"
Upon hearing this question, Li An's originally depressed face finally showed a hint of relief. This can be regarded as the best time during this period. One of the few good news.
"Back to the Second Prince, although dozens of people in Anka died and nearly a hundred were injured in this war, the final result is still our victory."
"Oh?"
Looking at Sirius' somewhat confused expression, Lian continued to explain. Said: "Actually, when the heavy rain suddenly started, everyone thought that we would definitely not be able to hold on this time.
But what everyone didn't expect was that just when Your Highness Siris entered the state of death, All the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and the originally invisible sun became huge. It seemed to expand from an ordinary disk to the heart of the world, and the burst of light seemed to burn the entire earth. In the end,
those stupid Because of their flammable skin, the lizardmen turned into fireballs, and in the end, only a few ashes remained on the earth.
They all said that this was a divine punishment."
"...Huh?"
Sirius was a little stunned. He inexplicably helped Anka repel the lizardman invasion that was originally impossible to resist?
"However, although the war and divine punishment are over, Anka after the war was still unable to recover from this catastrophe quickly."
Just like Lian said, Anka at this moment is not without chaos.
That heavy rain seems to have disappeared from people's memories, because it is difficult to tell from the plants and trees in the city that it has fallen. All you can see are the charred ruins of wooden houses.
The streets were strewn with wood and broken walls that had been charred by the fire, and the air was filled with the smell of smoke and burning. The surfaces of some surviving buildings were cracked by the fire, revealing a trace of "scars."
Most of the plants and trees were also dried up by the scorching sun, their leaves shrank and their branches were scorched black. The park area in the city has turned into a desolate place, and the original greenery is now only decayed.
Although these scenes could not be observed from Sirius's bedroom, through Ryan's description, he could imagine those scenes.
Is this passive ability so terrifying?
Sirius couldn't help but smile in his heart. If he could find a way to avoid the bug later, he might have to fall into his hands.
"That's right." Although Sirius knew this question was meaningless, he still asked, "Do you know where Nalia went?"
