Dio looked at the latest information in his hand, his mood was very complicated, to be honest, this information was indeed good news - the strange complex disappeared overnight, and it disappeared completely, there were no ruins left, only the earth that had been strangely polluted and turned black and gray, and the corpses left by the previous battle, and no other traces.

After expelling the mercenaries, the Church army somehow went to war with the monsters that were originally inviolable, and the escaped mercenaries escaped, and after hours of fighting, the monsters were defeated and the mysterious complex disappeared.

This information was sent along with the information that the whereabouts of the ice hunt were unknown.,It seems that the spies who mixed in with the mercenaries were also dispersed because of this sudden situation.,This information doesn't mention the matter of the ice hunt.,But the details of the disappearance of those buildings.。

I didn't dare to detail what I saw! The buildings began to twist and collapse inwards rapidly, turning into a small black ball with fire and loud noise, and after a few seconds, the spheres exploded and expanded into a green ball of light with evil intentions, like fireworks celebrated by Orientals during the holidays! The burst ball of light quickly vanished, but I could hear the wails of death! ’

This agent was more literary than the previous one, and his description was so vivid that Dior almost thought he was reading a novel, but he knew it wasn't a novel, and he knew that his secret agent was a bunch of sane people, and they must have been terrified.

Without those strange functional buildings that can train corpses, the church has lost its wife and broken its soldiers, these are all good news, and the escaped mercenaries will soon be able to walk these things out and let the church's credibility be hit, which is also very good news, and the best news is that they can stop the war warm-up, because this crisis has passed without danger.

Dio hated the church, but he did not resent the monks who were busy healing the sick and saving people, those who tied up noble careers with dirty politics were the ones he really hated, and Dio always thought that 'a monk who does not take up a sword is a good monk.' ’

As a lord, Dio was happy to see these sanctimonious people who mixed in with the noble people suffer, but he didn't look happy at all now, because of this incident, the spies he sent sacrificed a dozen at once, which made Dio very sad.

It doesn't matter how many enemies you die, but it is difficult for Dio to accept the loss of his own side, even if it is the loss that must be paid.

When he and his sister were children, they had an accident and had to blend in with civilians fleeing the fighting, raided by bandits, slave traps, starvation, epidemics, and ...... He saw all kinds of deaths with his own eyes, and then he remembered them in his heart.

"Ice Hunting...... You've left me in a big problem. I should tell Knock Knock that you're dead? ”

Bringing the paper close to the flame again, Dior groaned a little bitterly as he looked at the blackened and distorted papers, he hated the situation.

"Hah! What am I talking to myself? Dead people can't hear the complaints of the living! Dio stood up and slapped his face, he had been thinking about countermeasures since he received the anomaly information yesterday, and he didn't have time to eat dinner.

Well, wash your face, make yourself look more energetic, and save Merly from worrying about it, that little girl has too many things on her mind. ’

After tidying up his appearance, Dio came to the dining room, where the servants had already laid out the food, the potato cakes in front of the lord, the roasted pudding and vegetable soup for the eldest lady and the young lady Dongdong, and the large plate of mushrooms...... Everybody knows whose it is.

As is the case with the Hearn family, Bru Hearn should also be present at the breakfast table, but after receiving urgent information yesterday, the Bologna trade manager rushed headlong into the port administration and has not returned until now.

Uncle Blue must have received the information, too. It's really hard for him...... It's annoying, and I have no appetite at all. As Dior mechanically stuffed food into his mouth, he suddenly heard a very squirming sound, a sound that he was very familiar with.

"Brother...... Brother...... Good morning. ”

"Melly...... Early? Burst!!!! ”

Dio looked up to greet his sister, only to see what he saw that made him squirt hash browns.

Melly ...... His loveliest sister, who was now standing in front of him in a small maid's outfit, blushing like a ripe apple, noticed her brother's surprised gaze, and Melly immediately became nervous, and she hid behind Dongdong in a little panic, and pushed the little one forward little by little as a cover.

'This...... Melly in a maid outfit...... What a system! What a system! This...... It's just awesome, isn't there! ’

"Ahem! Melly ...... What are you doing? Why dress like this? ”

Dior tried to put on a serious expression.

"Brother...... I...... I don't want to go to school anymore. ”

Melly thought that Dio was going to murder her, but she suddenly became frightened and stammered when she spoke.

"Melly, you don't want to go to school anymore? Well! It's also good...... College is not something that kids your age can go to. ”

Dio nodded.

In fact, he himself also objected to his sister running to school, because she was too young and easy to be deceived or even hurt, but he was not good at interfering directly, and Dio was afraid that he would accidentally hurt his sister, so it has been delayed until now.

"But...... What does it have to do with you not going to school and you dress like this? ”

As he spoke, Dior's expression became serious again, the Hearn family has never considered themselves noble, because the ancestor of this family was a border soldier who had made great achievements and a court maid who was rewarded to this soldier, and before the rise of Bologna, the Hearn family was a group of very capable and vulgar hillbillies in the eyes of the other lords.

But no matter how much he doesn't pay attention, Dior won't let his sister really practice who she is a maid for, even if it is the royal family of the Gothic Dynasty!

"Brother...... I...... No...... Knock knock! Come on! ”

Dior's gloomy expression made Melly's head a little funny, so she pushed Dong Dong directly to attract her brother's energy.

"Dior! Melly wants to work part-time! Go to Sister Xuexue's dim sum shop! ”

Dio didn't have much deterrent effect on Dongdong, so the little guy just said it.

"Nonsense! It's nonsense! Melly! How did you come up with the idea of going to work? You're the young lady of the Hearn family! ”

Dio slapped the table.

"But...... You clearly allowed me to ...... Going to college? ”

Melly poked her head out from behind the knock bunker and fired a shot.

"A university is a university! A part-time job is a part-time job! The university is full of moral cultivators, and if you work outside, someone will bully you! It's easy for a kid like you to be bullied! ”

With a domineering wave of his hand, Dior called for an artillery attack on Melly's position.

"But...... The big sister of that dim sum shop...... Nice people. ”

Melly poked her head out of the knock bunker again and fired a shot.

"That young lady is indeed a good person, but she is just the owner of a dim sum shop, what if a guy with a higher status than her bullies you?"

After preparing for the artillery fire, Dio began to fire at Melly's position with his machine gun.

"Don't worry! Knock Knock will protect Melly! ”

The gun-and-gun bunker swears to live and die with Melly...... It didn't work.

"My brother is the most powerful person in Bologna, right? I have my brother to protect me! ”

Melly ran out of ammunition behind the bunker, but the girl stubbornly loaded her bayonet.

"Why do you have to go to work? That's not what a lady should do! ”

Dio also had a bayonet on his hand, but he still had a trench gun pinned to his waist!

"Because...... Because I didn't have a friend like Dongdong in college! ”

The girl leaned out of cover and fired a random shot...... As a result, her brother was shot.

Melly doesn't have friends of the same age, which reminds Dior of herself...... His men respected him, his subjects loved him, his enemies feared him, the other lords admired him, and the foreign merchants admired him, but Theodoric had no friends.

And the man who could have been his friend not so long ago......

"Okay. If that's your choice...... Melly, take care of yourself. Melly froze for a moment, then happily threw herself into Dio's arms.

"Thank you, brother!"
