【Thousand Fantasy】Snake and Rabbit in the Same Cage

Asahigi just finished a performance.

When people were drinking and drinking, he let a bean sprout in the center of the banquet hall break out of the ground, stretch its branches and climb up to the huge crystal candle lamp on the ceiling.After the vines made a crisp sound as they collided with the decorative objects, large flowers bloomed in front of the guests who caught their attention.

The branches seem to have their own consciousness. They know how to find the beautiful ladies who are well-dressed at the banquet, and present the flowers with all their heart, which makes the hall full of surprises and melodious laughter.

It wasn't until the flowers crowded every corner that they turned into countless shimmering stars with a bang, and flowed like a gurgling river into the vast starry sky that appeared above the head without knowing when.

Someone reached out, trying to catch the fleeing Xingzi.Carefully put your palms together to trap the fluorescent light, and when you open your palms, what appears inside is a butterfly with wings as thin as crystal, flapping its wings and flying with the fragrance of flowers.

Everyone's eyes followed the butterfly, and saw that it went straight through the entire hall and came to an inconspicuous corner of the wall.The illusionist who was holding half a glass of ale raised his glass, and the butterfly turned into a piece of clear ice and jumped into his glass.

Cheers sounded.

In the imperial capital, there is probably no one who doesn't know Qian Wuhuan and his illusion.

The illusionist wore a loose robe, bowed slightly, and bowed to the nobles attending the banquet.When he straightened up, the pair of long ears on the top of his head that showed his identity shook slightly.

A few guests who were slightly drunk with beer wine squinted their eyes and looked at him, which was not a friendly look.Because everyone knows that ordinary orcs who seek refuge in the empire as second-class citizens sometimes do anything to make a living.

For example, the maid who is carrying a tray around asking if anyone needs ale, or the musician playing an instrument that humans have never seen before on the side stage.The features of the orcs are very obvious on them, which means that they are also easy to be taken away at the banquet.

All it takes is a few silver coins, or even a loaf of bread.

But Light Mist Magic may be a little different.He will appear here to perform at the invitation of the master.As the most outstanding illusionist in the empire, his stage was arranged in the king's castle several times.The nobles regarded being able to invite him to perform as a symbol of wealth and power, so a small favor could not make him succumb.

"Let me tell you, rabbits are very casual, they treat going to bed as if they are eating." A man who stared at Huan for a long time said.

He dressed outstandingly, but his taste was average, he only piled expensive fabrics and rare gems on his body, looking like a nouveau riche.Considering that the people present today were either royal family members or nobles, Gen judged that he should be a baron who was knighted for his military exploits.

"Master, I heard that His Majesty the King appreciates him very much, I don't think it's better..." The attendant-looking person said timidly.

"So what about appreciation, have you knighted him yet?" The man hiccupped.

"No, there is..."

"Isn't that enough? After all, he's still an orc. It's his honor that I can see him."

The illusionist's ears twitched.

In fact, he wanted to plug his ears and block out the next profanity from the drunkard.But the host of the banquet was walking towards him with a wine glass in his hand, so he still had to be dignified.

Such an occasion is really not suitable for him.But only performing in this kind of place can earn enough money.

Not surprisingly, after a while the Baron—Gen had already given a code name to this troublesome person in his mind—probably came to talk to him when he was alone.Otherwise, just follow him away.The latter is more likely, because he has seen the host of the banquet's kind attitude towards him just now, and he will not want to make enemies here.

The atmosphere of the banquet has been completely heated up by the performance just now, and now the protagonists have become noble ladies dancing to elegant music.Imagine that it's time to leave.After saying goodbye to his master, he left through the side door of the hall.Not surprisingly, the baron and his attendants followed.

They have a good grasp of the distance. If they were humans, they should not find themselves being followed.It seemed that the baron had experience as a scout soldier, which further verified Han's guess.

Such people tend to be very impatient and like to use force to solve problems.

Huan deliberately walked into a back alley, and the footsteps behind him quickened.He heard the baron call: "Hi, little rabbit!"

Huan stopped, turned around, and smiled: "Are you calling me?"

The ardent smile of the pretty rabbit put the Baron in a good mood.He stepped forward and took the hand of the rabbit hidden in the loose sleeve: "Do you want to spend the night at my house?"

Something was stuffed into Gen's palm.The Beast Race was born with the ability to perceive elements, so he didn't need to look to know that it was a ruby ​​of good quality.Selling it to a gem merchant can sell it at a price slightly higher than today's performance fee.If it is processed into rings or necklaces by itself and sold to nobles, the price will double.

Quite seductive, fantasy.

He smiled and pulled his finger out of the other party's hand, and said, "It's inconvenient for me to go back too late. If you don't mind, there is no one here anyway."

The baron raised his eyebrows, thinking that a rabbit is indeed a rabbit.He has slept with many ordinary orcs, and rabbits are the best way to get started, so he waved to the attendant and asked him to go to the alley to watch out.

"Master, I think..." The attendant wanted to persuade him again.

Before he could finish speaking, he was kicked by the baron.He had no choice but to pat the shoe prints on his buttocks, and obediently walked towards the entrance of the alley.He lowered his head and sighed as he walked, and suddenly felt that the moonlight in front of him was much dimmer in an instant.Looking up, it turned out that someone was standing in front of him.

"Sorry, you can't pass here." The attendant stretched out his hand and stopped the young man.

The other party remained motionless, staring at the front of the alley.The attendant was a little annoyed, and coupled with the anger just now, he threw his anger on the stranger.He pulled out the saber from his waist, and cursed: "Get out of here, don't you understand?"

Before the sword touched the opponent, it turned into powder and dissipated in the air.

Under the moonlight, the attendant saw that the man had a pair of red vertical pupils.He suddenly felt his breathing freeze, and a chill began to spread from his back.

The imperial capital is heavily guarded, how could there be a superior beast race?He didn't have time to think about it, so he turned around and wanted to run away.But there was a sharp pain in his ankle, and when he looked down, the fangs of a small blue snake had pierced his skin.

Immediately afterwards, the little snake turned into two, three, and finally blurred into a piece of green before his eyes, and his body fell limply.The little snake climbed up Qiankong's calf and became a belt on his clothes.After fastening his belt, he knelt down and surveyed his captive.

That rabbit... was followed by this person just now, right?A thousand fantasies.However, he didn't feel any magic in this squire.The wizard, then, is another person.

He quickened his pace, trying to catch up with the two who left from the alley.But when he passed a corner, he suddenly saw a rabbit being hugged by a man dressed as an aristocrat.

The rabbit's clothes were half stripped, and his pale skin was exposed in the same pale moonlight.He moaned in a low voice, which instantly made Qianku blush hot.He hid, his mind went blank for a while.

Obviously, the man reeking of alcohol who was indulging in desire was not the wizard he was looking for.But the rabbit was followed just now, was it forced or voluntary?Does he need to save him?

An unexpected event beyond Qiankong's expectation made him in a dilemma, so he had to stand there blankly.After a while, he realized that his behavior was really rude, and was about to leave when he suddenly noticed a subtle dissonance.

There is no doubt that the two who are now leaning against the wall and making love are completely insane.But after Qian Kong calmed down, he found that there was only one person's breath in that direction.

Human breath.

"Is this your magic?" He asked in another direction exuding the orc aura.

Fan was a little surprised.

He snapped his fingers, and instantly appeared on top of the low wall.And the other "he" who was in love with the baron disappeared into the air, leaving only the poor nobleman who had lost consciousness, lying on the ground in disheveled clothes.

"Few people can see through my illusion. It seems that I am not good at it." Huan jumped off the wall, threw up the ruby ​​and caught it again: "Isn't it great to let him get his wish?"

There was a frivolous smile on Rabbit's face, as if he regretted that Qian Kong's arrival ended his game early.The latter breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time regretted that he was meddling in his own business. He waved to the rabbit and said, "As long as you are fine, I will go first."

"Don't go." The rabbit stopped in front of him: "You came here to save me just now, right? I should repay you anyway."

"No need... um!"

Because the other party has no murderous intent and is just a harmless rabbit, Qian Kong is defenseless against him.He froze when all the other kissed him.

The rabbit has the scent of flowers, and the lips are so soft that they seem to melt in it.If he hadn't seen his illusion once, Qiankong would have fallen already.When those dishonest hands reached out to his chest, he said in a deep voice, "If you don't unlock the illusion, I'll let it bite you."

Huan who was hiding on the low wall was taken aback, only then did he realize that at some point, a small blue snake appeared beside him, standing upright, staring straight at him with the same red eyes as Qiankong Spit letter.

The illusionist hurriedly begged for mercy: "I was just kidding you, don't be so serious."

After the rabbit in front of him disappeared, Qian Kong took back his little snake.That's not a real snake, nor an orc.It's a little familiar he made with his own magic power.The venom in the little snake's body is prepared by diluting his own venom several times. It is not fatal, and it will only make people or beasts lose consciousness.

Huan watched the little snake turn into an ordinary belt wrapped around Qiankong's body, but still felt his hands and feet were cold.As prey, this fear is baked into the genes.

"You plan to keep talking to me there?" Qian Kong said to him after confirming that the rabbit on the wall was the main body.Seeing the rabbit shivering, he was sure he had the upper hand.But just now, he was unknowingly hit by two illusions in a row, which still left him with lingering fears—there was still a touch on his lips, and everything was terribly real.

If the rabbit is the enemy, then I am afraid that I am in a very difficult situation now.

"It's okay to come down, I hope we can keep a little distance."

This is the only human country that accepts orcs.However, they only accept ordinary orcs who are harmless to humans and animals to live here as second-class citizens.Ordinary orcs have low magic power, and they can maintain their lives by eating ordinary food.

The superior orcs are different.

They are powerful, and the consumption of mana is equally huge.In order to have enough magical power to run their bodies, they must prey on humans and other beasts.Wizards use magic circles and incantation chanting as assistants, and use magic to compete with the superior orcs with natural magic power.The weak ordinary orcs seek asylum from the human country.

Obviously, they chose between being eaten and suffering humiliation.And a superior orc like Qiankong is undoubtedly a natural enemy for a rabbit.

If there is a conflict, Gen is very sure to use illusion to get himself out.He has been pestered many times in the past, and he has always done this.Even so, the instinctive fear could not be overcome.Talking face to face with a snake was more tingling to him than being mobbed at a party.

"Okay, I won't force you. Aren't you going to repay me? Then answer me a question." Qian Kong said, drawing out of thin air with his fingers, and the blue magic light overflowed from his fingertips, like ink The lines he outlines are filled with colour.After drawing it, he asked, "Have you seen this?"

"It's a human magic circle, but I don't know what kind of magic it is." Huan can rarely see human wizards using magic, but he is still familiar with such graphics.He thought for a while and added: "There are a lot of magic books in the central library. Anyway, your mimicry is so realistic, you can pretend to be a human wizard and sneak in to check it out."

Chiku held his chin and smiled at Gen.

"What...what are you doing?" Rabbit suddenly had a bad feeling.

"So, where is the central library? Are you a local rabbit?" Snake said with a smile.
