C323 Birds and Beasts Have Feelings(1)
The huge candlestick was once again lit. There were flowers and wine in the carriage. Brodie purposely did not put down the curtain. The moonlight blended with the candlelight, and the atmosphere was incomparably romantic.
"Marina, this is the 'rose wine' produced in Kurast. The taste is rich and fragrant. Let's slowly taste it. We can't drink it like last night." Brodie's voice was as gentle as spring water.
"Are you afraid of me?" Marina smiled.
Brodie smiled gently and said, "With you by my side, even if I get drunk every day, I still feel incomparably happy."
"You are chasing after me?" Marina smiled faintly.
"My feelings do not need to confess." Brodie's eyes were gentle and hot.
"Don't you know Amazon culture well? You still dare to pursue me like this?" Marina did not comment.
"Brodie is not afraid of all the rules in the world. With Miss Marina by his side, I even dare to pull out a few strands of archangel's beard." Brodie said with a smile.
"Are you really not afraid of death?" Marina shook her head slightly.
"The beautiful Marina. In ancient times, the Queen of Amazon, Hipporina, fell in love with Demigod Herakles. What kind of ancient romance would it be to secretly give her a belt? Brodie may not have the power of a Demigod, but he definitely knows the heart of a woman better than him." Brodie's eyes were intoxicated, as if he was immersed in the legend of Amazon's beauty.
"Are you like this to every beautiful woman?" Marina's tone was somewhat unfriendly.
Brodie gently said, "Since the most beautiful woman is already in front of me, how can I be in the morning and evening?"
Marina lightly drank a mouthful of wine and did not say anything.
I sat at the side very gloomily, feeling very uncomfortable in my heart. Brodie's attacks were becoming more and more powerful. This man's methods were not ordinary. Marina didn't know how to do it.
I smiled bitterly as I tried to dispel that strange feeling, but I didn't know why I couldn't get rid of it. Am I jealous? What right do I have to be jealous? Since I can't accept Marina, why should I care who her heart is tied to? Zhang Loong, oh Zhang Loong, you have the same bad habits as all men.
Brodie turns around to look at me and smiles politely, "You have slept for a long time. You should be hungry. Don't be polite. Take care of yourself."
I forced a smile.
Brodie ignored me. He turned around and whispered to Marina, "Marina, the long night is boring. Let's play games."
Marina smiled, "What game?"
"A type of strategic game that needs four people to play together." Brodie waved his hand and the servant brought over a stack of colorful cards. "This is the prop for the game. Which one of you will join in?"
Hun Dun and Soul disseminator looked at each other and said, "We will play with master."
Marina frowned and said, "I don't know."
Brodie said gently, "It's very simple. Let me teach you." She turned to look at Doom Knight. "Bad luck, you come too. You three play with Miss Marina."
Doom Knight responded. The three of them sat together in front of a small wooden table. Marina hesitated for a moment and finally agreed. Brodie sat beside Marina. The two of them were very close.
The card game started. Brodie quietly guided Marina on the principles and rules of the game. After a few rounds, Marina had a rough understanding of the game.
I sat by the side and felt very bored.
As the game went deeper, Marina could occasionally win a few rounds. She slowly became excited. Brodie kept whispering into Marina's ear. Marina often revealed a happy smile.
My heart ached, and I felt that I was becoming more and more redundant. I am such a boring person. I can't even be compared to the elegant Brodie. I only bring troubles to Marina, and Brodie always has a way to make her happy.
It is late at night, and it is hard for me to sit still, but the gamers are getting more and more excited. From time to time, they would laugh and cheer. I stared blankly at Marina. In my heart, I really hoped that I would be able to exchange glances with her for a moment. But I was disappointed. For an entire night, Marina didn't even look at me. It was as if I no longer existed.
The servants lit incense, and the sweet scent made people feel lazy. Perhaps this kind of life should be a woman's final dream.
I looked out the window in melancholy. Tonight, there are no stars and no moon. I can't see the scenery on the grassland clearly in the dark night, but I know... This place isn't far from the Rogge's pier. I have to leave the Rogge again, just like 200 years ago. With a mission, I will walk towards an unpredictable future. More than 200 years ago, I had Talitha by my side, and now there is no Talitha in this world. The loneliness I feel is even stronger than the loneliness I felt in the 260 years in Lut Gholein.
A person who lost his mind and the happy atmosphere in front of him became more and more out of place. However, he had no choice but to endure it.
The tentacles of my meditation slowly spread out, feeling every single blade of grass and tree in the Rogge. The sadness of parting slowly rises, but another kind of sadness is still unable to replace my disappointment. The interesting game made the participants happy and tireless, while I spent a long night in the suffering of negative emotions.
After dawn, I saw a familiar scenery. I know... In another half a day, we will be able to board the ship leaving Rogge. I pulled open the curtain and the morning wind was cool and humid. The gamers were not in the mood to enjoy the cool breeze, they were still immersed in the fun of the game.
The horses neighed loudly, and the carriage shook violently. The vegetables and fruits on the table fell to the ground, and the horses began to riot.
"What happened?" Chaos stood up, and the other two experts put down the cards in their hands.
"Lord Wolf!" The coachman shouted in fear.
Wolf? I had a thought and stuck my head out. I saw that the carriage was surrounded by countless wild wolves. In the middle of the encirclement, in front of the eight horses, a white wolf as strong as a little cow was squatting in front of Flying Snow?
My heart started pounding. Why did Flying Snow gather the wolf pack to attack Brodie's carriage?
"Why are there so many wolves?" Soul disseminator was shocked, "We didn't alert these animals."
Brodie frowned slightly. "You forgot to stay calm when you are like this."
Soul disseminator immediately put away his surprised expression and answered in fear, "It's a crime."
