Chapter 108: Blue Undercurrent
After a night of nothing, Lin Qian woke up the next day and found Sophia lying on the edge of her bed sleeping soundly, and said in her heart that this girl was really sincere, her grandfather asked her to take care of herself, so she kept staying by her side all the time. However, with such an eldest lady to serve, Lin Qian really couldn't help it, and found that he seemed to have a little strength in his hands and feet, and slowly woke her up.
"Huh?" Sophia opened her sleepy-eyed eyes, "are you going to get up and wash?"
It seems that she has not forgotten her "duty".
"No need, you can help me up, I feel like my body can move. ”
"Good. Sophia did her job as a nurse dutifully, helping Lin Qian to sit on the edge of the bed.
"You didn't rest last night, right?" Lin Qian looked at Sophia, who had slightly dark circles under her eyes, "You call Elena, go back and make up for sleep first." ”
Sophia was indeed sleepy and tired, and she no longer insisted, and went out to find the princess.
Now Lin Qian has a lot of things he wants to ask Elena, the loss of Azure City, what happened to Xiao Yi, and his own magic guild and magic academy, these situations are only clear to Elena.
"What, that giant beast?" After listening to Elena's narration, a thought suddenly popped up in Lin Qian's heart: there must be a close relationship between Xiao Yi and the giant beast.
"What about my Magic Guild? They shouldn't kill innocents, right?"
"The situation is not clear for the time being, and it may take a few days before the news comes," Elena was a little unhappy, "Brother Lin, why don't you care about me? I'm a princess in distress now!"
"Uh...... Elena, it's hard for you, you have to bear this kind of blow at a young age. Rest assured, when the war in the north is resolved, we will go back and retake the Blue City. Lin Qian had no choice but to comfort her like this.
"Well, I believe you, Brother Lin. Elena didn't know whether to comfort herself or Lin Qian with this sentence.
In the Blue City, in front of the Magic Guild Building, a small car slowly drove into it from outside the encirclement. The cart was pushed by two people, and there was an old man lying directly on the cart, who was the patriarch of the Nanyang clan, Ballem.
"Get in. The old man's voice faintly reached the ears of the two servants, and the car paused slightly and entered the Magic Guild building.
No one had entered the hall of the guild for several days, and in the face of this sudden appearance of the old man, the staff left behind looked at each other, not daring to act rashly.
"Let him come up!" a voice came from the top floor, and the magic elevator opened in response.
Potlem's eyelids twitched slightly, but he still didn't open his eyes, just his mouth squirmed and he gave the order: "Go up." ”
Clawson sat quietly in the reception room on the top floor, as if he were greeting an important guest. He watched as the car stopped outside the door, the frame of which was too narrow to seem to be able to get in.
"You're the only one?" said Portleme, a little quietly, as if talking to himself.
"Who are you looking for?" asked Clausen.
"A woman, she has been living on the top floor. Potlaim explained with rare patience.
Is it her? Clawson had some doubts in his heart, that was just the president's maid, how could she be so valued by the other party?
"She's not there, she's gone the day before you came. ”
"Then I'm really here for nothing. Potlime sighed, not knowing whether to be happy or regretful.
After saying this, the old man ordered the servants to go downstairs, and all the Nanyang magicians who surrounded the building also withdrew.
"He actually ...... Will you let us go?" Clausen felt incredulous, he had not failed in his mission, and had kept the president's belongings.
The changes at the top did not directly affect the life at the bottom, and after a few days of adaptation, all business activities became normal, including the magic guild, which finally welcomed the first batch of magicians who came to do the task.
"What's the matter?" This group of magicians is gone, they have a good job to earn a living, how can they give up this benefit?
Clausen, the highest-ranking person in the guild, had already been informed of the situation.
"Since Nanyang doesn't pursue us, continue in the same way as before. Isn't there a batch of missions that haven't been released before the Great War? Just give them to them, and remember what the President said before - we and the royal family are two separate institutions. The change of royalty has nothing to do with us. Clawson passed the order down, and at the same time thought to himself: Could it be that the president had foreseen this situation a long time ago?
In a luxurious palace in the palace, Portlem sat in the main hall, and next to him sat Emperor William, Empress Dowager Ante, and Nanyang Yigan.
"Grandpa, I don't understand, why don't you take the opportunity to uproot Lin Qian's forces? We have already occupied Azure City, how can we allow the existence of a second force in the city?"
"You're wrong," Portlem looked at his proud grandson with some disappointment, "we only occupy the palace. ”
"Could it be that there are any other forces in the Azure City besides the Imperial Palace that are worth paying attention to?"
"Of course there is," Potlem said with some earnest teaching, "the greatest power on this continent is not the royal family, nor the magic family, but all the idle magicians. Destroying the Magic Guild is tantamount to making enemies of all mages, which is more than worth the loss for us who are not firmly established. ”
Achill was silent, he was very clear about the situation in front of him, but seeing that the power cultivated by Lin Qian still existed, he was really unhappy in his heart.
Boolem noticed Archer's expression and said in a serious voice, "Hatred can affect your judgment, don't forget the lesson you received last time." ”
"Yes!" Archill was shocked, and it seemed that he couldn't hide anything from his grandfather.
"I'm tired, push me back to rest. You young people are energetic, and there are some things you can discuss and do. The old man glanced at Achill and William meaningfully, not knowing what to hesitate about.
"Grandpa, go slowly!" William suddenly shouted. The voice was not loud, but it was a little abrupt, and it instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Potlaim glanced back at William, who was at a loss, and the somewhat flustered girl beside him, smiled and didn't speak.
When everyone dispersed, the Empress Dowager Ante looked at William with some disgust, and said in her heart that she and his father were both smart people, how could they give birth to such a stupid son? Let him behave well in front of his grandfather, but he always has this kind of embarrassment, and if this continues, this throne will not be kept sooner or later. Looking at Achill again, a magical genius, a proper age, and having been with the old man for so long, it is hard to guarantee that the old man will not be biased.
"How are you learning magic from your uncle these days?"
"Hmm...... Very good...... Pretty good. Probably thinking that such an answer was too perfunctory, William added another comparison: "Better than my sister's teaching-"
"Shut up!" Ante just wanted to slap him, but he stopped thinking that he was now the emperor.
As soon as William's words were spoken, he knew that he was going to finish, and when he looked at the slap that was gradually approaching, he shrank his head in fright and raised his hand to block it, and waited for a long time without movement, and then he put down his hand and saw his mother's cannibalistic gaze.
"Are you still like an emperor like this?" Ante was heartbroken, "Do you know your current situation? Do you think that you can sit back and relax now that you are the emperor? Child, it's not that the mother forces you, but half of your body is bleeding the blood of your father, an outsider, and one day your grandfather is unhappy, and you will lose everything in the blink of an eye!"
"Yes, Queen Mother, the child will behave well in the future!" William had always been very well-behaved in front of his mother.
"Behave like this?"
"The child is wrong, and the child will definitely think about the consequences before acting. ”
Ante was silent for a long time and sighed: "Forget it." Anyway, you also shed half of the blood of Nanyang, even if you can't be the emperor, there will be no major harm to your life, I can't discipline you anymore, you go down. ”
William retreated abruptly, saying in his heart that he was indeed a failure as an emperor, but he couldn't blame himself. The people around him are either grandfathers or uncles, and the worst of all is their cousin, who can command? It's not as good as when he was regent before, except for his sister, everyone has to listen to him. I don't know what happened to my sister, will she really lead troops to fight me?
And Elena, who was tired of Lin Qian's house at this time, was enjoying a rare good time between the two.
"What about Patriarch Benjamin?" Lin Qian asked casually.
"Went to fight. Elena replied with a smile, and by the way, handed the peeled unknown fruit to Lin Qian.
"Fight? You mean he went to Freeman and Lambert?" Lin Qian took a bite of the fruit, and a lot of juice overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Well, and Andrey. Elena carefully took a handkerchief to help Lin Qian wipe off the water traces.
"That shouldn't be a problem, by the way, doesn't the other party still have a Calvin?"
"Yes, that's why I've sent someone to ask Patriarch Sam for help, and my uncle will also go to help in the war, and this time I'm going to destroy them in one fell swoop. ”
"I hope so!" Lin Qian didn't think that it would be so easy to unify the north, otherwise he wouldn't have mobilized the magicians of Azure City before.
Lin Qian's worries are not unreasonable, the family battle is not a simple combat power statistics, but has a kaleidoscopic number of factors, a few moves will miss the victory, and this time it is the initiative to attack, the strength of the other party is not clear, and it is inherently disadvantaged, if there are other factors, it is even more impossible to predict the result.
While they were talking, there was a sudden sound of magic breaking through the air and the screams of everyone outside the door, and Elena hurried to go out to check, but bumped into Sophia head-on. The little head flicked into Sophia's chest, nearly falling backwards.
"Princess!" Sophia grabbed her, "Are you alright?"
"It's okay, it's resilient. Elena looked unhappy, but she didn't lose her temper because of this, after all, her brother Lin was still watching from behind, so she laughed.
Sophia's face turned red, but now was not the time to be shy, so she hurriedly stabilized her emotions and said: "Princess, Lin Gongzi, Mugis - he is not dead yet, he has already been killed, let's run away!"
