In the stone room, Iris pushed Rosaline down, the Mermaid fell to the ground and felt the burning heat from Iris's hands. Her neck ached and burned, not to mention a huge black snake entwined her arms.
"What's in that rock?"
Iris wasn't going to let go of Rosaline, and the rock the Mermaid wanted to break must have something very precious.
Rosaline bit her lip, trying to see how it could escape Iris.
Alita wiped the sweat off her face and retreated behind Iris. The stifling heat made her feel dizzy. She didn't know how Rosaline could still endure the heat from the red smoke that Iris emitted.
"Answer me or I will roast your neck!" Iris tightened her hands around Rosaline's neck, and the Mermaid groaned softly.
"Why are you so curious? The thing in the rock is of no use to you at all."
"That's precisely why I'm curious," Iris replied with a grin, Litzy coiled her entire snake body around Rosaline.
