Facing the sudden invitation, Serie was a little startled.
Any normal person would try to hide as fast as possible upon hearing the name "Mad Eater Witch"; who would willingly approach her?
But then again, "Black Queen" didn't sound like an organization that had anything to do with normalcy.
Chloe immediately explained that there were actually different versions of the legends about the Mad Eater Witch.
To some, she was a disaster star who devoured thousands.
But in the hearts of certain ancient tribes and abnormals, she was far from as mad and bloodthirsty as the legends claimed.
On the contrary, she was also a tragic hero who symbolized eternity and rebellion... even a god.
In addition, although Chloe herself was the founder of the Black Queen, she was too young to command respect.
She came to Serie for two reasons: firstly, they had intercepted intelligence from another organization predicting that the Mad Eater Witch might awaken within ten years, so she came to try her luck, hoping to recruit a formidable helper for the organization.
Secondly, she wanted to use this matter to prove that she was not just a pretty face.
Serie truly hadn't expected that the Mad Eater Witch would have followers?
This was an unexpected pleasant surprise.
Chloe wanted to use her to win over people, and Serie mused that she might also be able to use Chloe and her organization.
A place filled with abnormals should be very good at dealing with the Control Bureau, right?
Serie might even be able to get them to help her retrieve her imprisoned main body.
Mutual benefit, that didn't sound bad.
However, Serie didn't agree immediately; she just raised her hand and pointed to her mouth.
The meaning couldn't be clearer.
"Understood, please rest assured, Gorutos," Chloe's lips curved upward, knowing that this matter was almost certainly settled. The last sentence was spoken in Western language: "As long as you agree, from now on, I will not only provide you with food and lodging, but also ensure you have plenty to eat here!"
Serie's eyes lit up.
A free long-term meal ticket? Such a good thing exists?
Serie was happy, and Chloe was also happy.
So, who wasn't happy?
Tarak, who had suddenly understood, had a long face, wishing he could slap himself right then and there. Chloe's demeanor was exactly like that queen in the mural.
He had just been loose-lipped, calling that queen a sycophant.
No wonder Chloe hadn't given him a good look since then.
"A special plane will come to pick us up in a few days, and I will arrange accommodation for you..." Chloe was very thoughtful: "But don't run around, try not to be seen."
Although this small town was very remote, with a population not even reaching three digits, Serie and Chloe's identities were quite sensitive after all, so Chloe said this for safety reasons.
Serie naturally agreed readily.
However, she planned to sweep the ancient tomb one more time during these few days.
Firstly, to devour a few more holders of spear; it was true that Chloe would provide food and lodging, but this kind of rich, locally exclusive flavor probably couldn't be found elsewhere. Secondly, she also needed to investigate the background of these holders of spear along the way.
