Chapter 66: An undercurrent surging
When Qi Tianci and Viren returned to the marching army, Viren always had that inexplicable smile on his face.
This kind of smile made Qi Tianci feel a little hairy in his heart, he didn't know what Viren was thinking now, and since Viren became the nominal supreme commander of this huge coalition army, he didn't know why he found that Viren had changed somewhere.
Qi Tianci didn't know if Viren's current change was good or bad, but at least for now, he felt that Viren looked a little bit gloomy.
"What are you thinking?" Looking at Viren, who was about to laugh, Qi Tianci finally couldn't help it.
Viren was stunned for a moment, realizing that he was indeed a little out of shape, and then forced himself to calm down: "No, it's nothing, I'm thinking about a problem now." ”
"Oh, what are you thinking?" Qi Tianci suddenly became interested and asked curiously.
"I wonder again, after we gather with the Southern Coalition forces, who is the Supreme Commander?"
Qi Tianci looked at Wei Lun who said this with a shocked expression, pointed at him and asked, "Do you repeat your question again?"
Wei Lun looked at Qi Tianci, who was looking at him with an incredulous expression, and asked, "I'm asking who will be the supreme commander of the army formed after our two armies are gathered together?"
"Do you want to be?"
"Yes. Viren blurted out almost subconsciously without hesitation, but immediately a trace of embarrassment flashed on his face, and he hurriedly changed his words: "No, how is it possible... I don't have the qualifications and I don't have the skills, so what's the use of me thinking about it?"
After giving Wei Lun a meaningful look, Qi Tianci turned his horse's head and hurried towards where McGregory and Lei Xi were. Leaving Wei Lun staring blankly at Qi Tianci's back, at a loss.
By the time Qi Tianci found McGregory and Lei Xi, Lei Xi was listening attentively to McGregory's explanation of magic. After seeing Qi Tianci, McGregory first greeted him with a smile and then continued his explanation: "The wonderful thing about magic is that it can make people who were originally powerless suddenly have the ability to change nature. I've always thought that it wasn't an accident that magic came into existence and then was developed by humans. We humans have always been extremely vulnerable on the entire continent and even in the world. So, in order to protect themselves, humans have to learn some skills that are not at all their own and carry them forward. This is why, although magic was first discovered and used by elves, it really became a stunt in the hands of humans. In those prehistoric times, human beings used other technologies to achieve the purpose of self-preservation and domination of the whole world, but because they were not used to it, the humans of that era were eventually replaced by us. And, oddly enough, a person with a weak constitution is often more likely to learn magic than a person with a strong constitution. In fact, as far as I know, almost all magicians are physically fragile people or other races, and the strong ones often don't know how to get close to such magical elements, let alone summon them. So I think that magic and martial arts complement each other on this continent, but because they couldn't master the magic elements before, they caused the existence of the weak physique to become a vulnerable group on the continent. But after the appearance of the magic element, the weak and the strong are finally truly balanced... Okay, that's all for today, and when we have time, we'll talk more specifically about how to bring out the true power of the magic element. Okay, Qi Tianci, what are you looking for us?"
Qi Tianci was not in the mood to listen to McGregory talk about magic, if he listened carefully, then he would think that McGregory was talking about himself who didn't understand magic, and he was a stupid big man with five big and three thick. But fortunately, he has more serious things to ask now, so he said in a deep voice: "I think Viren's mood has changed now. ”
McGregor frowned, realizing a hint of foreboding, and asked, "Tell me, what's going on?"
So Qi Tianci told McGregory and Lei Xi about the conversation between Viren and Miss Light Sigh in detail in the Danmoth Empire. After finishing speaking, Qi Tianci also added: "I think that after he became the commander of this army, his state of mind is completely different from before. Moreover, they were just asking me who would be the commander when we had assembled with the armies in the South. Listening to him, he longed for that position. ”
McGregor's face grew more serious, and he knew what was wrong with Viren. "Looks like I made a mistake. ”
"What do you mean, old man?"
McGregory shook his head again and again: "Do you know why I nominated Viren as this commander in the first place? First, Viren can be used to maintain the balance between our three races, and the fact that he regained the power back to our three races proves that he did it, and the second reason is that I know Viren, and I know that Viren will never let himself become arrogant because of this reputation." However, if what you say is completely true, then my assumptions are completely wrong. I'm underestimating the right thing. ”
"Are you saying that Viren has been blinded by all his strength now?"
"I'm not sure, and I really don't want that to happen to Viren. Because his heart is so simple, from the moment I met him to the present, I thought that a person like him would never be bothered by such worldly problems. But I didn't expect him to be like this, hey. McGregory let out a long sigh and sped himself up: "Hurry up, while Veren has not yet reached the point of no return, we must do our best to bring him to his senses!"
Lei Xi followed closely behind McGregory and asked puzzledly, "Teacher, is the matter really that serious?"
"Of course!" McGregor accentuated, "If you think about it, the regent of the Danmoth Empire knows that the situation is not serious!And that regent is very old enough to cause us such serious trouble and indirectly cause the destruction of Magellan's kingdom, and Viren is still so young! Can you imagine what will become when Viren is completely changed? Not to mention that Viren is a magical genius! And magic can have a much greater impact than that regent now, understand?"
It was the first time for Lei Xi to see that her teacher would say such a heavy tone, and she felt a little uncomfortable, but she thought that her teacher was helping the person she cared about the most, and she also understood his hard work, so she followed behind McGregory and Qi Tianci without saying a word, and at the same time hoped that she could also help a little bit.
A few minutes later, the three overtook an army of several thousand men before finding Viren, who was traveling alone. What is chilling is that there are many soldiers along the way, especially human soldiers, who are greeting him because they know Viren very well, but Viren without exception chooses to ignore them, just humming inexplicable songs as he walks.
"It's getting a lot more serious, have you seen him do this before?" McGregory now looked very serious on his face, pointing at Viren and asking Qi Tianci and Lei Xi, and Qi Tianci and Lei Xi both shook their heads, indicating that they had never seen it.
"It's broken. McGregory hurried to Velen's neighborhood and patted Veren on the shoulder.
"Who? Who!" as if awakened from a good dream, Viren turned his head and scolded angrily. But after seeing that it was McGregory, he immediately laughed a little embarrassedly: "Teacher, it turned out to be you." ”
The anger in McGregor's eyes flickered, and he asked quietly, "Lord Commander, what are we going to do next?"
Viren didn't think about it, and replied casually: "Of course, speed up and arrive at the Deloma Empire as soon as possible." Wait, teacher, why do you call me that?"
"Do you know you're embarrassed?" Qi Tianci behind him rushed over and scolded angrily: "Boy, how did you become like this now?
"No?" Viren subconsciously quibbled, "How could I order you? ”
"It's your friend!" Qi Tianci's voice was very loud, making the marching troops look sideways at him. "Have you forgotten what our relationship is, do you want to order me now as Supreme Commander?"
The expression on Viren's face was a little ugly, and he immediately retorted: "I have never forgotten what our relationship is, and if I did, I would not have escaped from the apostolic world! But after all, I am at least the nominal Supreme Commander now, don't you think you are disrespecting me now?"
"Respect?" Qi Tianci sneered, and before Viren could react, he flew over and slapped Viren and scolded angrily: "I respect you for being spicy next door!
Viren rubbed the bruises on his face, not to be outdone: "When did I stop respecting you? Aren't you my deputy now? If I hadn't taken the initiative to give up my rights, would you be able to be the deputy commander?"
Accompanied by the pair of friends scolding each other was Lei Xi's cries. In the past, whenever Lei Xi felt uncomfortable, Viren would always rush over to comfort Lei Xi as soon as possible. But this time, Wei Lun only cared about arguing with Qi Tianci and didn't care about Lei Xi at all, which made Lei Xi's heart very cold. "Viren, stop. Lei Xi said softly, but this time Wei Lun didn't care at all, and still put all his energy into arguing with Qi Tianci.
McGregor on the side couldn't bear it anymore and roared angrily: "Enough!"
Startled by McGregor's roar, Veren was about to say something when he suddenly felt a blackness in front of his eyes, and when the light regained his light, he found that he was no longer in the same place, but in a very quaint-looking house. But it was a house, but Veren couldn't find any exit to it, and McGray sat on a very quaint stool in the room with a gloomy face.
"Teacher, what are you?"
"This is my home. Instead of answering Vilen's question, McGregory asked, "Now, tell me, who the hell are you?"
Viren felt that this question was very vexatious: "Teacher, why do you ask that? Don't you know who I am?"
"That's why I asked because I don't know now!" McGregor shouted in an accentuated tone, "I knew you before, but I really feel so strange about you now!"
"I, I'm Viren. ”
"But if you were Viren, why did you do what you did? You're now blinded by power, you know?"
Viren lowered his head and replied softly, "I know it's wrong, teacher." ”
McGray looked at Whalen and let out a sneer, "You know it's wrong? Do you know where this is?"
"I know. This is your safe place to live. “
"Well, it's good to know. Do you know why I'm bringing you here?"
"You're afraid that I will have a conflict with Qi Tianci. ”
McGray shook his head in disappointment, "Why have you become sluggish now? Do you think that's what I'm bringing you here for? No, I'm trying to calm you down!"
"Calm down?" Wei Lun asked suspiciously, "But I'm obviously calm now? ”
McGray reluctantly slapped his forehead with his hand and said in a deep voice, "It seems that what I expected is still too simple." Viren, have you noticed that you have been blinded by power? You think back to you before, and then think about you now, do you think that you don't feel like Viren anymore?"
Viren bowed his head, but neither affirmed nor denied.
"Okay, it doesn't matter. McGregory stood up, spreading his hands indifferently. "Then you can calm down here. When you understand what you are doing wrong, then when will I let you out. ”
And Viren laughed at this time: "Teacher, have you forgotten that I have also mastered the magic of the space system. “
"Oh, is it?" McGregory pretended to be surprised, "Oh, if you look at my current memory, how did I forget that you are the second magician to master spatial magic?" Okay, I have more important things to do, so sober up. With that, McGregory glanced at Whalen in disappointment and gradually disappeared.
