Universe Infinite Canteen

"What is your mission?" Malu was curious.

"Looking for a silver suitcase," Skylark said. "According to the church's information, that suitcase is in the warehouse in front."

"Who's guarding that suitcase?"

"Stop asking questions, this has nothing to do with you," Cerberus said impatiently, "You guys wait for me here. I will sneak in and find the box, and then come out to join you."

"But..." Hibari wanted to say something else, but the purple-haired girl had already put one hand on her head and spoke forcefully.

"No but, you stay and take care of Ji Le, and keep an eye on this guy, don't let him escape!"

"I won't run away." Malu said.

"That's best. Don't say I didn't warn you. There are dangers everywhere in this forest. You can't survive without us." After Cerberus finished speaking, he put his lips to Malu's ear and said softly. .

"You are the man I like. Even if you die, you should be eaten by me."

"That's not necessary."

The purple-haired girl let out a laugh like a silver bell, then grabbed the red short blade and walked towards the warehouse not far away without looking back.

She did not go through the main entrance, but followed the drainage pipe on the side and climbed directly to the second floor. She moved vigorously, like an ape, and then jumped into a window with only half of the glass left.

It wasn't until her figure disappeared that Malu turned his gaze to Skylark on the side.

Skylark suddenly became nervous and took half a step back. Then, perhaps remembering Cerberus's instructions before leaving, he tried to straighten his chest and tried to imitate the tone of the purple-haired girl.

"You... don't mess around, otherwise when A Quan comes back, you will... you will be miserable!"

"Okay," Ma Lu said, "but we have nothing to do now, so why not chat for a while."

"Ha, don't think that I don't know what your plans are. If you want to get information from me while A Quan is away, just give up. I'm very tight-lipped and won't tell you anything!"

Skylark was very alert this time, and he immediately saw through some people's schemes.

But...that's where it ends.

Compared to the hellhounds with erratic personalities that talk about eating you every day, a simple girl like Skylark is obviously much easier to deal with.

Malu looked serious, "You misunderstood me. I do want to collect more information, but it is for the common safety of both of us."

"For our common...security," Skylark wondered, "Why is it that the more you know, the safer we will be?"

"You have also heard Cerberus's previous plan. She wanted me to replace the dead knight and return to the Temple City with you. But if I know nothing about the knights, the church, and the city you live in, how could it be possible? Have you really deceived people from the church?”

"What you said makes sense." Yunque nodded repeatedly, but soon she looked embarrassed again, "But A Quan..."

"She just asked you to look at me and don't let me run away. She didn't say she couldn't let you chat with me. And she also answered a lot of my questions just now. It shows that she doesn't object to me chatting with people."

"That's right!" Yunque patted his head, "Then what else do you want to talk about?"

"Let's talk about knights again. Since you want me to play your knight, you should at least let me know more about knights. By the way, how did your knight die?"

"Well... we encountered an attack on the way here. The knight, he accidentally died in battle."

When Skylark answered this question, his eyes flickered, and he stood on tiptoes intentionally or unintentionally.

It seemed like he wasn't telling the truth, but in order not to arouse the girl's alert, Malu didn't dwell on the question anymore and continued to ask.

"How do knights usually direct your battles?"

This time Skylark answered quickly, "The Lord Knight will follow us, issue combat orders to us, monitor the fluctuations of our sin points, and grant us permission to use magic weapons."

"Wait a minute, do you still need authorization to use magic weapons?"

"Yes, because magic is very dangerous. Every time a witch uses magic, she will get closer to the abyss, and her sins will increase. When the sins exceed the threshold, the witches will be lost."

"What happens if I get lost?"

"It will lose all sanity and turn into a terrifying monster, and it will also trigger very terrifying divine punishment."

Skylark shrank his neck as he spoke, his little face full of fear.

"Only the church has the holy water that can wash away the sins of the witch, so after the battle we will return to the cathedral in the city to be baptized, provided that we can complete the task and the Lord Knight is still alive."

"Is this so?" Ma Lu touched his chin, "I roughly understand the knight and the witch, and the relationship between you and the church, but... I haven't figured out some details, such as how the knight monitors your sin points. ? And how to enable permissions for your weapons?"

Skylark hesitated for a moment, then probably thought that if Malu wanted to pretend to be a knight, he would know about it sooner or later, so he pointed to the silver collar around his neck.

"This is a ring of order specially created by the church for witches, and is linked to the knight's armor."

"Oh, where's the knight's armor?"

"In..." Yunque was about to say it, but at the last moment he became wary again, "Huh, I won't tell you!"

But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard a loud noise coming from the warehouse not far away!

The windows on the first floor, which already had few pieces of glass, were now even more bare due to the shock.

Skylark's expression changed and he exclaimed, "No, A Quan has been discovered!"

After waiting for a while, the girl did not see her companion come out of the warehouse, which made her even more panicked.

Skylark's calves were trembling, but she finally gritted her teeth and planned to rush to the warehouse.

But as soon as he opened his legs, someone held his head down.

This familiar movement made Yunque feel dazed for a moment, thinking that the purple-haired guy was back, until she heard Malu's voice in her ears,

"Hey, calm down. Without the knight, you can't use magic weapons. If you rush over, you'll just die."

As a result, this sentence not only failed to calm down Skylark, but actually scared her into a little train.

"Woooooooo, it's over, then we are all going to die here today! Woohoo~"

The girl cried more and more sadly.

"No, it's not time to despair yet. Please cheer me up and tell me where the knight's armor is first, so that I can help you activate your weapon." Ma Lu said.

After being reminded like this, Yunque stopped crying again, sniffed and said, "Well, then I'll take you there."
