Chapter 369 Midler's Warning
Creatures like pond dragons often live under water and can be found in muddy swamps and at the bottom of rivers.
As long as this creature is around, some kind of green phytoplankton will grow on the water surface, hiding its body and making it easier for it to hunt.
Whenever a Pond Dragon is in danger, the bubbles on its neck will burst, sometimes even when it is exposed to sunlight.
This is something that should not be seen in the light.
Because the toxin in the bubble on the pond dragon's neck is extremely toxic, once it explodes, the toxin will not only harm the enemy, but it itself will also not be spared.
"Some things, if you keep them secret, will develop in a very bad direction." Midler said with a vicissitudes of life on his face: "Once the lies and illusions are exposed, all that is left for you is a devastated reality."
He looked very touched.
He slowly began to tell his own story.
It’s not actually a very complicated story.
It's the most classic story of greed and desire.
Even though he already had Maggie, he was still eager to do something else.
"When I tell you this, I also know that people like me don't deserve sympathy at all. In a situation like this, the one who suffers the most is always the one who is deceived and concealed."
He had no cigarette in his hand, so he tapped his chin with his fingers.
Because of Maggie's presence, Midler and Connie have always been quiet.
I clearly had that idea in my mind, but I never dared to express it.
Is it because of guilt, or is it that kind of fluke mentality?
What if we can continue like this without being discovered?
That's roughly the idea.
I know this is wrong, but I keep giving in because of my inner desires.
It was not until the truth could no longer be concealed that he decided to tell it all.
At that time, Ranji was about to come into this world.
And what happened between him and Connie was like a fire wrapped in paper; soon the disguise would be revealed.
Due to Maggie's suspicion, coupled with Midler's guilt, or perhaps the remaining sense of luck.
Yes, that's right.
It's just a fluke mentality.
What if things would be different if Ranji was here?
As he thought so, and since he couldn't stop her at all, he had no choice but to tell Maggie everything.
On one side is his dearest sister, and on the other side is Midler.
The captain has been taking good care of Connie ever since she and Connie joined the team on their adventure.
This captain has saved his own life and his sister's life from monsters many times.
There is no doubt about Maggie’s heart for Midler.
But this is not a reason to cheat and conceal the truth.
On the contrary, the better the original relationship was, the more torn and painful it seemed at this time.
The two people who are closest to you and the most reliable in this world have deceived you at the same time. No one can accept this.
Maggie simply couldn't accept it, or in other words, she wasn't the type to accept such a thing.
So she pushed Ranji and Connie towards Midler and returned to her father's house alone.
At least my father wouldn't deceive me.
"It's all my fault. I wouldn't care even if Maggie stabbed me to death with a magic wand from behind to the top of my head," said Midler.
"But the mistake had been made, and this is what happened."
"......" Caesar didn't know what to say.
It doesn't seem appropriate to say anything to comfort him.
He also knew Sister Maggie.
He didn't know what to say.
"Anyway, I'm not telling you all this for any other reason." He shook his head: "I just want to remind you that you shouldn't be too confident about some things."
"Think carefully about the possible consequences of everything before making a decision."
He warned.
"oh, I understand now."
Caesar also nodded.
"Speaking of which, since you are no longer adventurers, what is Sister Maggie doing now?"
The atmosphere became too heavy, Caesar thought for a moment and asked.
Is there anything I can do to help?
I vaguely remember that Maggie's father was not in good health. When she was an adventurer, Caesar seemed to have heard that it would cost a lot of money to cure the disease.
It is a rare disease that is extremely difficult to treat and can only be cured with extremely precious magic potion.
Even for a team led by an epic-level adventurer, it is not easy to collect this much money.
"Fortunately, Uncle Evan's illness has been cured. Now I heard that she is working for someone else's Chamber of Commerce."
When he said this, it was obvious that he was still paying attention to what was happening in Maggie's family.
"Oh." Caesar said he understood.
"Okay, let's stop here." Midler patted Caesar's shoulder and said, "Langji is still young, he needs to rest early. We need to make sure he grows up to be as tall and handsome as you."
"Tsk tsk, I have to say, you have a pretty good face." Midler said.
"I just don't know what you're thinking. Do you have to follow those guys in the body shaping department and wear this crappy mask on your face?" Midler said, his expression looking a little disgusted. "Why would a man's face be covered with this piece of broken iron? There's no sense of mystery at all. I just think it's a bit stupid."
"Uh--"
Caesar didn't know how to talk to him.
"It's because there's something wrong with my face, so I can only use a mask to cover it." Caesar said with a wry smile, "Otherwise I'm afraid I'll scare the children."
"Scare the kids? Is it a scar?" Midler was a little surprised: "If it is a scar, why not just ask Nellie to remove it for you? With your face like this, she must be more worried than you."
"If Nellie is not here, come to my place and take the bottle of [Stone Heart Milk] that I had saved. The medicinal power of this thing is quite strong and should work." Midler said seriously.
[Stone Heart Milk] is a very precious magic potion. It may be worth just that to Caesar, but for an epic adventurer, it is half a life.
"That's not necessary..."
Caesar shook his head: "Forget it, I'll just show it to you directly."
He said so.
The next moment, he took off his mask.
A red dragon seemed to be wandering and roaring above it.
It does not destroy the beauty of his entire face, but instead makes him look handsome and evil like a work of art.
If it was in the game, I would probably see the words [Charm +100!] directly.
what is this?
Just as Midler looked at the red dragon, its pattern seemed to take off and roared at Midler!
"Roar!"
"what!"
Midler was shocked. The dragon's roar carried a strong mental deterrence, which actually frightened him, an epic-level adventurer, so much that he collapsed on the ground.
Caesar reached out his hand to help him up, and he grabbed it and stood up with a frightened expression on his face.
Dark flame, what is that?
He was panting, his body seemed to have lagged behind after not taking any risks for a long time.
"You are indeed a bit weird."
He said so.
