Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Bumblebee turned back obediently.

When she thought of her mother's life in danger, she suddenly felt that Mo Rong's smiling eyes were much more pleasing to the eye.

"No need to come back, we are going the same way for now."

Mo Rong staggered to Bumblebee's side and gave her a smug look.

"Is it strange how I know this?"

Bumblebee lowered his head and nodded slightly.

She was indeed very confused. She hadn't said anything, but how did Mo Rong know what she was going to do?

Could it be that he can read minds?

"Don't guess, I can't read minds."

Bumblebee: “?”

"It's not difficult actually. If you're here for fun, your purpose won't be that strong, so you definitely have to do something when you go to Canglu. But the only person who can be related to you there is the queen who was sent there earlier."

After he said this, Bumblebee seemed to understand something.

"Where is the Queen?"

"Before that, you have to tell me what you want to do."

Bumblebee's eyes dimmed slightly, and he didn't answer. He took a few steps before speaking.

"I can't say, you...change the terms."

After all, this is a family matter, and Bumblebee doesn't want too many insects to know about it.

After listening to this, Mo Rong thought for a moment, then took the map from Bumblebee's hand, took the pen from her, and drew a small circle in the west direction of the map. Although the location was not very accurate, it narrowed the scope a lot.

"It's probably around this place. There are sentinels patrolling nearby. It's very conspicuous."

Feeling Bumblebee's surprised gaze, Mo Rong spread his hands and smiled, winking playfully: "Originally I was just curious, since it's inconvenient for you to say it, then don't say it."

Bumblebee took the map from Mo Rong, looked up into his dark eyes, and said seriously, "Thank you."

The sudden thanks made Mo Rong stunned and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Well, that's all I can tell you. Let's part ways here. After all, I have important things to do, and I'm not as free as you think."

After saying that, Mo Rong strode away.

Seeing him leave so decisively, Bumblebee actually felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

She thought Mo Rong would stay by her side like last time.

"Wait, you haven't stated the conditions yet!"

"Hahaha, no need! I was just kidding you!"

The unbridled laughter floated in the wind. Bumblebee looked at Mo Rong's waving hand and the direction he was going. That was the way he came.

Seeing the black figure gradually disappear from sight, Bumblebee simply turned around and walked out of the city, unfolding the map and looking at the mark drawn by Mo Rong.

"what?"

Bumblebee moved the map closer and found a line of words below the circle mark. The ink was fresh, and she thought it must have been written when she wasn't paying attention.

When their eyes met, Bumblebee's whole body trembled as if he had been electrocuted, and he clenched his hands again with a complicated expression.

"Don't force yourself, just do your best."

......

Because of the riot, the elevator leading down to the palace is now heavily guarded. Even caravans that used to be qualified have to notify before they can board, not to mention a bug that has been "executed".

"If you believe me, I am the champion of the last selection competition, just let me go."

Mo Rong stood in front of the four guards and proved his identity helplessly, but unfortunately the other party did not appreciate it.

"Don't say anything. Even if you are, so what? As long as it is not related to the palace, you are not allowed to ride it unless you have a written order from the king."

"Brothers, I really have something important to tell you. So, please use Shiraishi to contact Captain Ida. He will explain my identity."

"Ida?"

The guards looked at each other, and then all looked at Mo Rong.

"Who is Ida?"

"Ugh!" Mo Rong was choked and stood still, at a loss as to what to do.

He forgot that almost every guard here is a champion of the selection competition. This title does not seem to have much value in the palace, although he thinks his rank is quite high.

Looking at the guard in front of him who was unwilling to give in, Mo Rong felt a headache for a moment. He didn't want to attack the guard. After all, there was no conflict between the two sides and the other party was just doing his duty.

Oh, I should have asked the Wasp sister to show up.

Rumble-

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the metallic sound of the hinges being pulled suddenly spread to the ground, and soon the ground began to vibrate slightly. Accompanied by a loud bang when the elevator touched the top, the expressions of the four guards suddenly relaxed.

"We are about to change shifts. Please explain it slowly to the guards who come later."

"Hey, stop..."

Mo Rong looked at the four new guards who came to take over and felt a headache.

Why not just break in?

As usual, the two sides of guards handed over daily situations when they changed shifts. As the only insect who wanted to go down to the palace without a permit today, Mo Rong's situation naturally fell into their ears.

"You said he asked you to contact Ida?"

"Well, do you know each other?"

"He is the captain of our team. Don't worry about it. We will handle this matter."

The turn of events was really beyond Mo Rong's expectations, just like the previous guards did not recognize Ida, and the four new guards surrounding him with enthusiastic faces.

"You, you're here to see Captain Ida?"

"Um... yes, but I'm not looking for him. I'm just stopping by to take a look. I want to meet someone else."

"It's a girl, right?"

"That's right." Mo Rong nodded affirmatively.

Zemor is a woman.

"And her name is..."

"Alright, alright! Can't you see I'm getting a little impatient?"

The guard wanted to ask more questions, but was interrupted by his companions behind him before he could say anything.

Mo Rong was indeed a little impatient, but he was very curious about how the guard knew he was wearing a mask. However, since he had said it out loud, he might as well take advantage of the situation to back off.

"Don't you have the white stone? Use it to contact that kid and you'll know. He'll be happy that I'm here."

The guard who asked the question savored Mo Rong's answer, his eyes excited and sure, nodding his head and muttering in a low voice: "Yes, Captain Ida will certainly be very happy, after all, he has been looking forward to seeing you for a long time."

"Please come this way!"

The elevator door was opened, and Mo Rong was personally welcomed in by a guard. Seeing the other party's attentiveness, he was really puzzled.

That’s not right. I didn’t even tell you my name. Could it be that Ida had already anticipated that he would come to the palace?

But even so, there was no need for these team members to welcome me so much. It was as if they were treating me like some important person.

and many more!

Could it be that Yida has been promoted to the level of the commander-in-chief? !

Mo Rong stood in the elevator, his head in a mess, until the loud noise and vibration caused by the elevator starting brought him back to his senses.

Then he saw the guard outside the elevator waving at him with a smile, and said something that made him confused.

"Bon voyage, brother-in-law!"
