At this time, in the meeting hall of the imperial palace.
The Demon Queen Cecilia sat high on the throne.
Below, the commander of the guard team and several team leaders knelt in a circle, and the head maid also knelt on the ground.
These people took turns telling what happened in the palace today.
After they finished speaking, the hall fell into silence.
Cecilia still had that cold expression on her face, making it impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry.
This is the most terrifying thing, the king's power is unpredictable.
After a long silence, she slowly spoke.
"killed."
Upon hearing the order, the surrounding soldiers immediately came up, dragged the wailing people away and executed them.
No one begged for mercy for them. They allowed the elves' undercover agents to sneak into the palace for a long time and let them cause such a thing. These people were seriously derelict in their duty and deserved to be put to death.
After those people left, some of the ministers standing below stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, I am an expert in locating magic. As long as I have your loved one's underwear, I can find her."
"No need."
Cecilia's words shocked everyone. Her Majesty, isn't she anxious when important relatives are being held hostage?
However, despite their doubts, no one dared to ask. Everyone knew that Her Majesty the Queen would be very unhappy with such a thing, and no one dared to offend her at this time.
"Launch a city-wide manhunt to find her as soon as possible."
After saying this coldly, Cecilia turned and left.

On the other hand, the elf girl had already anticipated the raid that was about to take place.
She took Ruan Qiaoqiao with her and hid in the wooden house for three days without going out. During these three days, Ruan Qiaoqiao kept launching mental attacks on the elf girl, causing the latter to break through her defense several times.
This morning, she suddenly untied the rope on Ruan Qiaoqiao's hands.
Ruan Qiaoqiao looked at her with confusion.
This elf finally couldn't stand my nonsense anymore and wanted to let me go?
"Take off your clothes?"
"Hmm?" Ruan Qiaoqiao looked at her puzzledly.
She seemed to think Ruan Qiaoqiao didn't understand, so she said another sentence.
"Take off your clothes."
"W-what do you want to do?"
Ruan Qiaoqiao covered her chest with her hands and took a half step back in fear.
The elf girl thought she was deliberately making trouble and refusing to cooperate, so she came up and tried to take her clothes off by force.
"What do you want to do? No, don't do that! Elf sister, I will never harass you with trash talk again... I was wrong! Elf sister, don't do that!"
Chapter 25 Heloise
The elf girl held a glowing crystal in her hand and gently slid it across her suspender skirt.
The dirt on the suspender skirt quickly disappeared without a trace.
This suspender skirt was originally worn by Ruan Qiaoqiao. She had been sitting or lying on the haystack these days, and had already soiled the pretty skirt.
Ruan Qiaoqiao, wearing only underwear, curled up in the corner.
It turned out that she wanted to clean her clothes.
So why did she do that?
While Ruan Qiaoqiao was wondering, the elf girl had already cleaned her skirt completely.
She handed the skirt to Ruan Qiaoqiao in silence, her consciousness clearly evident.
"You, turn around."
The elf girl tilted her head in confusion, and her long ice-blue hair, like a waterfall, immediately tilted to one side.
In her mind, she and Ruan Qiaoqiao were both women, so there was no need to avoid them. She usually changed clothes with the female team members when she was on duty.
Ruan Qiaoqiao's face turned red with shame and she was surprised.
Does this guy really have no common sense, or is he deliberately taking revenge on me?
Lao Han
I don’t understand why people can be shy too!
"Why do you even need to ask about this? Turn back quickly."
Yu. ·haN group:⒏£◆⒌●㈦六←…陆♂<③≮四∨-似‰¨陑Ruan Qiaoqiao grabbed the skirt, then pushed the elf girl and turned around.
The elf girl didn't resist much and turned around cooperatively.
She had already seen that this little devil was too weak to escape from her grasp.
Ruan Qiaoqiao quickly put on her spaghetti-strap dress.
"Okay, you've turned around."
The elf girl then turned around.
At this time, she was already wearing a tattered cloak and a collar around her neck.
Ruan Qiaoqiao was a little surprised and was about to ask, but then she saw her take out two bracelets.
She put one bracelet on Ruan Qiaoqiao's hand and the other on her own wrist.
After putting the bracelet on, Ruan Qiaoqiao noticed that it tightened automatically.
At the same time, an invisible thread tied her hands and the elf girl's hands tightly together.
"I will take you out. If you are checked, you will say that I am your slave. Do not try to escape. If this thread is forcibly broken, you will experience a feeling worse than death."
She still has that expressionless face.
This was the first time Ruan Qiaoqiao heard her talk so much.
"Okay! Okay, I understand!"
Ruan Qiaoqiao nodded her head, looking well-behaved.
The elf girl then took her hand and was about to go out, and Ruan Qiaoqiao hugged her arm in a familiar manner.
"What's your name, Elf Sister? I've known you for a few days, but I still don't know it. Please tell me now!"
"..."
Ruan Qiaoqiao shook her arms.
"Oh, tell me, tell me, you can't be in trouble if someone doesn't even know your slave's name, right?"
"just saying."
The elf girl stared at the arm that was held by Ruan Qiaoqiao.
She was somewhat unaccustomed to this kind of close physical contact, and it would hinder her ability to fight in critical situations.
"open."
"No, no!"
Ruan Qiaoqiao didn't let go either, but continued to pester him and ask for his name.
The elf girl was so annoyed that she had no choice but to speak.
"Helois."
"Heloise? It's a nice name! My name is Ruan Qiaoqiao. You can call me Qiaoqiao."
Ruan Qiaoqiao smiled sweetly, as if it was just a social gathering rather than an exchange between the kidnapped and the kidnapper.
The elf girl felt a little overwhelmed, as this was the first time someone had taken the initiative to get so close to her.
She didn't answer, but just pulled Ruan Qiaoqiao and walked out the door.
This was the first time that Ruan Qiaoqiao had left the cabin since she was kidnapped three days ago.
It's sunny outside the window now, and it's a good day for traveling.
Ruan Qiaoqiao looked like she was on a picnic, blinking her big eyes and looking around.
This was the first time she had left the palace and seen the outside world since she came to this world.
QqUN:85ˇ÷⒎}∏⑹㈥∵? 3四寺⒉ All the surroundings were in ruins, and some were even completely turned into ruins.
The road was full of potholes and there were all kinds of garbage on the ground, which gave off a smell that was as bad as a cheap hamburger in this hot summer.
Free County
Many people in tattered clothes were lying on the dirty ground on both sides of the street, their eyes were lifeless and they seemed to have lost hope in life.
Ruan Qiaoqiao was wearing an expensive dress at this time, and she stood out among these people.
Many people cast greedy eyes at her.
However, these people retreated after seeing the dagger at Heloise's waist.
The guards of the noble lady are not so easy to deal with, they don't have the courage.
Ruan Qiaoqiao could also notice the gazes of these people, but she didn't care too much.
Even though she was kidnapped now, she had already seen clearly that because the bead was swallowed by her for some unknown reason, this elf sister didn't dare to do anything to her now.
This is also the reason why she dared to be so arrogant and use the elf sister to create negative emotions and torture her constantly.
She covered her mouth and nose and walked carefully to avoid touching the garbage on the road.
She finally understood why no one had found her after hiding for three days. In such a disorderly and chaotic place, the imperial government would probably have difficulty moving forward.
Once you leave the slums and come outside, the scene becomes completely different.
The road became flat and clean, and the shops and houses on both sides stood in an orderly manner. People were coming and going, and the traffic was very lively.
Ruan Qiaoqiao's eyes lit up and her gaze kept scanning various creatures and things.
In addition to the demons like her, there were also orcs, lizardmen, dwarves... These people wore all kinds of clothes and did all kinds of things. Ruan Qiaoqiao even saw an elf girl drinking with a pig-headed man.
However, except for the demons, all other races wore collars around their necks. Obviously, they were all slaves.
What happened to make the demons and the whole world become enemies?
Ruan Qiaoqiao became more and more interested in the history of this world.
But she couldn't find anyone else to ask now.
Go ask the elf sister?
Ruan Qiaoqiao glanced at the elf girl beside her.
Forget it. She is very frugal with words and it is unrealistic to expect her to tell me this.
I have to find a way to get a book and read it.
Thinking of this, Ruan Qiaoqiao carefully looked around the shops nearby to see if there was a bookstore, and she actually saw one.
"Let's go check out that store over there!"
After saying that, Ruan Qiaoqiao ran across the street without waiting for Heloise to answer.
The elf girl was stunned and was dragged over by her.
Just as they walked over and hadn't even entered the bookstore, they almost ran into soldiers coming out of the alley next to them.
Heloise's fists clenched unconsciously.
Ruan Qiaoqiao didn't plan to run away right now, so she pretended not to see anything and walked towards the bookstore.
"stop!"
