"Hello, long time no see, Ms. Motri. It's a surprise to see you here. ”

Looking at the smiling face not far away, Stephanie only felt that her body was cold, like a sheep overlooking a giant beast, and her whole body was stiff and completely unable to move.

This is by no means an illusion simply caused by fear, she can clearly feel that this man's spiritual will and life force are blended into a hard, huge, and high-level force that seems to be able to crush everything, like an invisible and massless giant hand that completely envelops her whole person and even her spirit, and she can be detected at any time The slightest abnormality of her movements, or she can be pinched to death at any time like a bug.

Even with an eleven-ring arcane scroll in her hand now, she didn't have the slightest power to resist.

The tremendous pressure was not only from this meat-faced man, but the other two Westerners who came in with him were no weaker than this man, and they were also staring at her with sparkling eyes. Stephanie was also familiar with both of them, and when she changed her form and lurked in the envoys of the Dry Empire, she also studied and deduced their powers. These are the three most powerful in the West, all monsters with powers far beyond ordinary archmages, and she has fallen into a desperate situation.

"Since everyone knows each other, then I don't need to introduce you. Three, sit down and try our Fernández's black tea. ”

The only one who seemed relaxed was the owner of the place, Phil, who seemed to be really like he had invited three ordinary guests, with a relaxed smile on his face, and with a wave of his hand, the teapot on the table floated up and poured out three cups of black tea.

However, the others didn't seem to hear it, and the Sword of Benevolence still looked at the female mage with a strange smile on his face, and walked over step by step unhurriedly and stretched out his hand. The female mage was completely white and trembling, like a frog under a snake's mouth.

"Please refrain from being rude here. Phil seemed to finally notice the discord and frowned slightly. "Ms. Stephanie is also my guest, and I invite the three of you here to have tea and talk peacefully as my guests, and to clear up some misunderstandings. ”

"Oh, I thought you had brought this woman to me. The Sword of Benevolence withdrew his hand and looked at Phil with a strange expression. It's just that with Phil's words, of course, he can't be stopped. However, Phil's voice was accompanied by a netted barrier of lightning between him and the female mage.

"But by your misunderstanding, are you listening to some kind of rhetoric from this woman? Do you know what this woman did? She had just killed a lady, our companion or her former friend, and the Arcane Academy's surveillance arcane had recorded everything clearly. ”

Although he turned his head, he didn't relax at all about the female mage's momentum, this power grid may be able to stop ordinary people, but it is nothing for the Sword of Benevolence, he just needs to confirm this man's attitude.

Phil still looked unhurried, and said lightly: "Broadly speaking, there must be misunderstandings. The so-called misunderstanding is the deviation between perception and facts. Not only did you have a misunderstanding, but so did Ms. Stephanie. She has misunderstood the path she has taken, and you have misunderstood her heart and the harm she can cause......"

The Sword of Benevolence sneered unceremoniously and interrupted Phil's words: "You should save these academic words full of philosophical and artistic beauty to the bed of that beauty named Julia or some other beauty, keep them dazzled, and unlock more poses for you to discuss." This woman is the killer we have been looking for, there is no doubt about it, and we are going to arrest her now. ”

"Oh? It turns out that this person is the true face of the previous Ms. Mo? She is still the real murderer who killed Mu Daoyou? I see that she is a little familiar, and it seems that she has fought with us in Osstar City......" Liu Xuanying couldn't understand Ou Luo's words, but there was Feng Yinqiu who explained softly on the side, and he also understood what was going on. "But this Mr. Phil called us here, and this is his mansion, so we should be polite, and we might as well hear what he has to say, shall we?"

Liu Daochang's words are wrong. The Sword of Benevolence smiled. He grinned wide, pulling at the flesh of his face, revealing a row of large teeth, but there was not the slightest smile in his eyes. "The so-called etiquette or something polite or something, is to take it out and play when everyone is similar, or when facing some trivial things that are not painful. This woman is a very important person, and behind her are those arcane maniacs who do everything they can, and who knows if there will be any weird arcane magic that will come out later, and it must be taken down first. ”

Feng Yinqiu also nodded: "What Brother Invincible said is true." Those arcane maniacs are extremely dangerous, and their methods are endless, and this is not the time to talk about etiquette. ”

Liu Xuanying's eyes flashed, and he stopped talking.

The Sword of Benevolence reached out to the female mage again, and the network of lightning flickered only slightly obstructed, piercing like a rag. From beginning to end, Stephanie didn't make the slightest movement, and couldn't even utter a word. Under the pressure of the fist intent of the Sword of Benevolence, her mental power is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary people, like a straw in a hurricane, and the only thing she can do is to try her best to keep herself from being torn apart.

Phil frowned and shook his head, then sighed deeply, and the room suddenly lit up.

As the reception room of Fernández's mansion, this room was originally very large and very well lit, but now the light here is dazzling. The light did not come in from the window, nor from the lighting crystals on the wall, but from dozens or hundreds of white lightning balls that suddenly appeared in the room.

Like sudden clouds and mist, and like jellyfish living in the air, these balls of dazzling white light just floated slowly in the surrounding air without making any sound, like a magic spectacle constructed by light and shadow, but everything that comes into contact with these solid lightning, whether it is the porcelain on the table full of tea, the coffee table carved from precious mahogany, and even the surrounding walls, the masonry on the ground, are all silently disintegrated and disappeared, just like these white balls of light are the real entities, and everything else is illusory。

"Hey, what do you mean? Are you looking for death? ”

The Sword of Benevolence looked at Phil again, his eyes much sharper than before. There were also white balls of lightning fluttering around him, but they dissipated like foam as soon as they touched him. He seemed to be a more real, purer being than these white lights. "As I said earlier, this woman is a very important enemy to all three of us, and she will never be given any more chance to resist or escape. What's the use of you making that gesture? You don't think you can beat the three of us alone, do you?"

"Of course not. If it were to be a head-to-head battle, I probably wouldn't be able to defeat any of you. Phil took a sip of tea and admitted it very indifferently and honestly. "I'm just showing my attitude. Miss Stephanie is my guest and my favorite person, and I will do everything in my power to protect him, even if it costs with my life. I'm serious. ”

Stephanie finally took a breath, and as the attention of the Sword of Benevolence was partially removed from her, the tremendous pressure that had completely shackled her from body to spirit was finally relieved a lot, and although she still didn't dare to act rashly, it was much better than the feeling that almost even her mind was suppressed and stiffened before.

Turning her head to look at Phil, the confusion and incomprehension on her face was not much less than that of the three of them in the Sword of Benevolence, and she couldn't understand what this man was doing. But at the moment she couldn't do anything, it didn't even make sense to speak, and the only thing she could count on now was this man.

"Oh?" the Sword of Benevolence snorted meaningfully. The glint in his eyes did not diminish, and he turned his head to look at Feng Yinqiu. "This kid is actually going to fight with us for this woman, do you think we should show him a little scared and comfort him?"

“...... Let's listen to what Mr. Phil wants to explain for this lady. After all, everyone was once a companion, and it was not good to really make trouble to meet each other. Feng Yinqiu thought about it, but still nodded and smiled. Pulled Liu Xuanying to the table and sat down.

Facing the white ball of light floating around here, Feng Yinqiu was actually a little embarrassed, these were all wind elements condensed to the extreme, it was not completely impossible for him to deal with, but he couldn't do it like the Sword of Benevolence, and it was not good to use the Five Elements Divine Light to sweep around. It's also good that Liu Xuanying is next to him. Although this True Martial Sect Dao Sect master had a limited theoretical understanding of the four elements, he also felt that this was the form of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi gathering and dispersing, he flicked his hand slightly, and a burst of starlight flickered between the wind elemental light clusters floating around him, and then those light clusters automatically avoided him and Feng Yinqiu as if they had consciousness.

This move seemed inconspicuous, but it made Phil, who had always been calm and indifferent, finally show a slightly stunned expression, but he didn't say anything, just looked at Liu Xuanying carefully.

Seeing Feng Yinqiu and Liu Xuanying sit down, the Sword of Benevolence also had to open his mouth to agree: "That's right." It doesn't matter if this kid is dead, but the contract of the dough mage is still with him, so let's hear what he has to say......

As the three of them sat down, the aura of aura that permeated the surroundings disappeared silently, leaving only traces of eroded potholes everywhere. Originally, the subordinates who were waiting outside did not make the slightest change, it seems that either Phil had already made arrangements, or he used the wind element to isolate all the news here.

"So, let's get to know each other again. The three cups of black tea floated back in front of the three of them, representing the meeting officially entering the next stage of friendship. Phil used a standard Arcane nobleman to introduce a friend, pointing at the pale-faced female mage. "This is Miss Stephanie de Oro Green, a top student from the Royal Arcane Academy, and a full member of the Arcane Revival Society. ”

"Of course we've known each other for a long time. The two of us owe our arcane arts thanks to her professor. The Sword of Benevolence sent a smile that could be considered hideous.

“... Well, Ms. Stephanie has done some excesses to you, even causing the death of one of your companions...... According to the understanding of ordinary people, it should be like that. But this is the mission of the Alpha Renaissance, not her own intention......"

"No, that's what I meant. My every move is from my heart. ”

Stephanie finally spoke her first words since this strange meeting, her face was still pale, and her voice was slightly shaky, showing that she was still under considerable pressure, but her tone was very firm, as if a believer was reading a vow: "You don't have to excuse and defend me, I know what I'm doing." Everything I do is for the sake of lofty goals and beliefs, and I have long been mentally prepared to bear all the consequences. ”

"Oh, listen, people don't appreciate your affection. The Sword of Benevolence gave Phil a strange look.

"Yes. I did kill Mu, she's my friend, I'm sad, but if I had to choose again, I'd still do it. That was my belief and choice. If you want to avenge her, I have no opinion, and I will not resist or run away. And I can tell you that neither Vice President Jefferson nor Vice President Griffin is monitoring me, they can't stop you, they won't stop you, and they won't even have time to take revenge on you in the future, because our most important plan has been completed, and we just need to wait quietly for the return of the Star Temple. After the return of the Star Temple, the Arcane Revival will rise again, and the arcane light will shine again on this land!"

With the excitement of rebounding back from the previous powerlessness and panic, as well as a little self-abandonment in her heart, Stephanie yelled impassionedly, and the feeling of being manipulated by people like a rag doll was slightly lightened, as if this was the only way to appear that she was a living and self-aware person.

It's a pity that the others don't seem to have a big reaction to her words. Liu Xuanying couldn't understand Ou Luo's words, and still tasted the cup of black tea with his eyes closed, while Feng Yinqiu frowned slightly, staring at the table in front of him that was deformed by the erosion of the wind element, as if he was thinking about some unknown mystery, only the Sword of Benevolence looked at her, but his eyes were almost full of contempt and disdain, just like looking at an ignorant child who was crying and sprinkling.

Phil was still as calm as ever, and said slowly: "The most important news has also been heard by both of you. Until that hall returns, the Arcane Revival Society, or at least Miss Stephanie, will never do anything harmful to you again. ”

The Sword of Benevolence immediately sneered: "So what? What she said is true? Even if it is true, it doesn't mean that we have to forgive her for letting her go, shouldn't she pay the price for what she has done?

"I just want to tell you that I'm going to shelter her. Phil replied very directly and calmly. "How about using the friendship of the Fernandez family and the contract with that mage in Incre as a bargaining chip, in exchange for at least Miss Stephanie's safety with me until the return of the Star Temple? ”

The Sword of Benevolence's eyebrows were raised upward, and the horizontal flesh on his face squeezed out a somewhat surprised expression, and he exchanged glances with Feng Yinqiu, who was also surprised, and then turned around and snorted coldly, "... Your tone of pure business is an insult to our fellow victim......"

But she didn't actually die, but her form of existence had changed, and even from the druid's point of view, it was a great thing. You should be able to understand it somewhat. Phil was unmoved, still in the same tone. "And I guess it's your favorite, isn't it? Inclave's mage's contract is very valuable from your point of view. ”

"He was once my loyal subordinate. The Sword of Benevolence finally smiled. "If these conditions can really be guaranteed, it is not unacceptable. ”

Phil continued: "On top of that, maybe we can work together on a deeper level, after all, we are a little weak against some entrenched enemies......

"Wait. Feng Yinqiu suddenly spoke. "I wonder what your attitude will be towards the revival of the Offa, and what do you think of the Star Temple that is about to return?"

"It's just the afterglow and rancid stench of the wind of the last era. Even if you can still feel the wind blowing, it will eventually dissipate. Phil smiled slightly. "If I can speed up this process, I will help you do what you can. ”

This meeting, which began as tense at the beginning, slowly became peaceful in the promise of an exchange of interests. After more than an hour, the three Western visitors departed as usual under the courtesy of the servants, as if they had really just come for afternoon tea.

Phil, who had finished this meeting, seemed to be more relaxed, as if he had relieved himself of some worries and burdens, with a faint smile on his face, and no intention of changing places, just sitting in the living room that had been eroded by the wind element and drinking black tea by himself.

Only Stephanie's face was ugly. There was no longer the pressure of the Sword of Benevolence, she was no longer pale and trance-like, but flushed with a kind of excited redness, she was standing opposite Phil at the moment, no longer had the kind of pretended steadiness and calmness, only with some hysterical and helpless anger.

"What the hell do you want to do? I'm not your puppet or puppet, I don't need you to arrange everything for me, I don't need you to shelter me! I don't appreciate everything you've done! If you think that the Arcane Revival will be just a relic of some era and want to stop the arcane brilliance, then you are my mortal enemy!"

Her roar didn't make the smile on Phil's face lightened a little, Phil was still holding the black tea, and said casually, "You just thought I was casually coaxing the three of them." ”

"What?" these words were like a slap in the face, blinding the female mage's emotions, and she froze for a moment. "Really, ...... you?"

"It doesn't really matter what the facts are. What matters is how you look at him. Phil said something that made Stephanie even more confused. "Anyway, you and I will have to work with those three Western friends in the future, so it is really necessary to strive for the current peace. ”

"What do you mean? Why should I work with you, with those three people?" Stephanie thought she was finally able to ask a more realistic question.

"Solidify the law of high-dimensional tearing positioning hub. Phil spat out an awkward arcane word. "Or rather, the news of the core fragment of the Morning Light Power is the goal of the Revival Society and your mission, right? Besides, I really don't understand what reason the vice president has to send you back and let you stay with me. ”

Stephanie froze. Indeed, the previous excitement almost made her forget about it.

“... Rest assured, this news is also my goal, at least very close to my goal. So we really have a lot of reasons to work together, after all, within the Fernández family, I am too high-profile to do some things myself. And in some extreme cases, you may need the help of those three friends. ”

Phil's words kept Stephanie in a stunned state. Her mind, which could easily handle the high-ring arcane formula, was also a little difficult to accept in the face of these sudden turns and logical transformations, but fortunately she finally returned to a very practical topic, and there was no need to discuss with this druid on the issue of nervous values, she vigorously digested the various possibilities guessed in this short period of time, reluctantly regained her previous calm and aristocratic temperament, and said with a smile: "Then you should have told me a long time ago, Mr. Phil." In that way, we can reach a tacit understanding earlier, and we don't have to waste time and energy by misunderstandings in those inexplicable places. ”

"Nope. Phil affirmatively said no, and went back to the same topic as before. "It's something I'd love to see for you the boundaries of your own feelings and endurance. The feelings that erupt at the limit are much more real and beautiful than any aristocratic demeanor. And I can sense that you're going to have more of these situations in the future, so I'm going to familiarize you with it now. ”
