The clothes of men and women are extraordinarily luxurious, but the style is very different from now, and even the hair accessories are completely different. From the back, the black hair and figure have the same points as Li Qi and Xiaohong, but for no reason, Theresia feels like this.

This is Li Qi and Xiaohong......

She flapped her wings and flew over, trying to get a better look in front of the man and woman.

A strange scene happened, and every time she got closer, the image of the man and woman receded a little. Every time I turn an angle, the image also deflects, and what falls into my eyes is always the same back, as if it were just a flat picture.

Kayla said, "It's ...... Root Illusion, when the Heavenly Mountain shattered, these two people should have been standing right here, their power embedding their images of that moment into the root of the space debris, but it was incomplete. ”

Theresia understood: "That is, looking at the roots of the space to see more?"

"Yes, wait......"

Before Kayla could stop it, golden light spilled out of Theresia's body, instantly blazing, and the entire space was like a bright sun.

"Bad ......"

Theresia whispered in frustration, the golden light retracted, and the image of the man and woman had turned into smoke and dissipated.

She sighed helplessly: "My strength is too strong, and I directly erased the impurities in the roots." ”

Kayla reassured, "It's okay, they're just leaving a little illusion and they can't find any more useful information in the roots." ”

"I don't know why you think it's Richie Prell and Lady Crimson, judging by the costumes, the man is supposed to be some magical emperor of the First Age, and the woman is his queen. ”

Theresia was stunned: "Magic Emperor, didn't the part above the second floor of Heavenly Mountain disappear in the Dark Ages? You just said that this illusion was left here when Heavenly Mountain shattered, this doesn't make sense. ”

Kayla's tone was also confused: "The Root Illusion can only be formed like this, and as for the situation in Heavenly Mountain, Kem did tell me so. ”

Theresia didn't speak, she closed her eyes, and once again a golden glow overflowed from her body, this time much gentler.

After a moment, she opened her eyes and shook her head, "The root cause is too badly mutilated to confirm how long ago this piece of space debris formed. ”

That's when she answered Kayla's question: "It's not the hair color and figure that make me think it's Li Qi and Xiaohong, but a kind of ...... Breath, an aura that is incompatible with reality and seems to come out of thin air, is very similar to Li Qi and Xiaohong. ”

She suddenly realized, "Kayla, you said that the Magic Emperor is very likely to be a traveling mage?"

Theresia's face cooled a little bit, so that her words were as gloomy as a cold wind: "So, so is Richie...... Brigade Mage?"

With a complex brilliance in her eyes, she muttered to herself, completing this judgment little by little: "His achievements in magic guidance technology almost jumped out of thin air. Although Mentor Medi said that it was not the same way as the magic emperor's magic channeling technique, it was still incompatible with Finn's tradition. ”

"The idea of the magic guide technique comes from Xiaohong's belief in great love, which completely did not exist in the world of Fein in the past, and simply fell out of thin air. ”

She nodded affirmatively: "Li Qi and Xiaohong are both traveling mages......"

As she spoke, her hand unconsciously rested on her lower abdomen, and her face became very bad. But now she is a doppelganger of the gods, and there is naturally flat and untraced.

Kayla sighed, "If they really are Brigade Mages, it doesn't make sense that we wouldn't have found out before. ”

The curtain of the past passed through Theresia's heart, the chance encounter with Richie when she was a child, the meeting in Conrad City, Richie sat on the Death Throne, killed the old god of Benuin, and the Sea Cliff fishing village for one night......

Little by little, the clouds dissipated, and with it the coldness on Theresia's face.

That's right, Richie's soul is definitely of this world, and he is not a traveling mage.

Even Xiaohong, who met in the outer plane several times, and even met in the main body, did not sense the breath of another world.

But a little haze still remained, why did the magic emperor and empress give her the illusion that it was Li Qi and Xiaohong?

In short, the origin of Li Qi and Xiaohong, I never thought much about it in the past, and now it has become a huge doubt.

The origin is a mystery, and their beliefs and schemes are even more worthy of vigilance.

"As long as the Kingdom of the God of Order ascends to the Heavenly Mountain, and the light of Order shines on Finn, no matter what the origin or scheme, it will not matter. ”

Theresia said, "Kayla, drag this fragment with me to the entrance of the gap in space, just as a trestle for the Kingdom of Order." ”

Kelasdra hesitated again: "Don't you find out, since you have found something unusual here, it is better to be careful." ”

Theresia pondered for a moment and sighed, "Well, I'll send an angel to investigate. However, the angels are not like me to open up a path directly, and I can only rely on space debris to advance, and the progress will be much slower. ”

"Let's build a land of gods like Epsilon on the first layer of Heavenly Mountain," Kayla persuaded her, "The absorption of the Chaos Angels will also force the Goddess of Commerce and the Void Dragon God to give in, and things will have to come one by one." ”

Theresia smiled bitterly: "There is also the matter of Exo Xiang, your body has not been taken back yet." ”

Kayla smiled faintly: "I may not be able to wait for that time, when the time comes, you can deal with it properly, don't let the residual strength in the body toss me up and make a fool of me." ”

Theresia said seriously: "I will, I will let you rest in peace, otherwise I will not be able to sit on the throne of the god of order with peace of mind." ”

Consciousness returned, and the mortal Theresia opened her eyes, sat up from the chaise longue, and looked out the window.

Her castle towers over the edge of a winding canyon with stone walls jutting out from trestle bridges. At the end of the trestle, scaffolding encloses a series of slender hulls that are beginning to see the outline, and at a glance there are at least thirty or forty of them, which is actually a floating fleet under construction.

Countless humming and vibrating magic planes flew in formation in the air, and the batches were boundless, each batch was hundreds. The fields on the other side of the canyon were filled with smoke and dust, and if you looked closely, you could see a large number of magic chariots speeding around.

This is the Duchy of Norton, and the Empire relies on the National Floating Ship Workshop and the Amosmu Secret Workshop to build the main floating fleet. And the Principality of Norton's Float Ship Workshop was organized to build cheaper mass-produced float ships in large quantities.

The empire needs a war that solves the problem forever, and for this it needs a strong army. In this day and age, there is no more powerful force than the floating fleet.

Theresia nodded in satisfaction, and then turned her gaze to the wall of the room, where a huge mirage screen hung with news from all over Finn.

A huge and strange steel figure appeared on the screen, with an unusually light and swift pace relative to the body, stepping six sets of mechanical legs made of countless legs in parallel, and smoothly advancing through the field.

The announcer's tone was yin and yang: "The rebellion in the southern territory of Koster, which was assigned to the Crimson Church, has not stopped, and the Koster people are still holding on to the largest city, Red Eagle City. Crimson Church Pope Richie Prell inaugurated his massive and unwieldy mobile fortress today, demonstrating to the Kist that he would not hesitate to wipe out the entire Red Eagle City. ”

Mordwin's sense of smell in the Propaganda Department was very sensitive, and after the three parties divided Them, he realized that the empress's attitude towards Li Qi and Fei Gong had changed. Although the empire has not officially broken with the Fei Gong, it has begun to "expose" the "true face" of the Fei Gong openly and covertly, and subtly scandalize the image of Li Qi's gang in the eyes of the imperial people.

"This is what you said yourself, public opinion is also a battlefield, and now you should also appreciate the taste of self-reaping the consequences. ”

Theresia said secretly, shaking her head pityingly.

Your Mobile Fortress may be large, but it can only crawl on the ground.

It's like your goddess Red opens up the situation through the Hell Plane Army, but still has to make a fuss in the inner plane.

She muttered in a low voice, "The commanding heights of this world are not your pair of unknown ...... Dogs can be touched by men and women. ”

As soon as the words fell, the communication ring on her hand vibrated slightly, and Theresia listened to it, revealing a stunned and strange expression.

Richie looking for her?

..................

In the Book of Trade Winds communication room in Beta City, Litch was in a trance when he saw the image of Treretia.

Her body was firmly engraved in his heart, every inch of skin, every line was extremely familiar, he had measured it with his own hands on the night he had spent in the fishing village of Benuin Sea Cliffs.

At this time, Theresia was a little unfamiliar, of course, she was still beautiful, even more beautiful than the Theresia engraved in her heart. Can...... How to put it, it's like time has gone back to her.

Theresia smiled and said, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Without waiting for Li Qi to answer, she said again: "Actually, I'm the same, and now I think you're a little strange." ”

Li Qi's heart jumped, is this a foreshadowing for the deterioration of the relationship between the two sides?

He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry that I'm too busy to talk to you often, maybe it's because of this that there will be some misunderstandings between us." ”

Theresia nodded, "I really hope it was just a misunderstanding." ”

It seems that she still cares a lot about the affairs of the Red Covenant Organization and the Hell Plane Army, Li Qi thought so, and quickly turned to the topic: "I heard that Your Majesty has organized an alliance of gods in Heaven Mountain, and it is a good thing to solve the status of the Chaos Angels." ”

"You also know that our Ficks advocate the emancipation of slaves, and we are very happy if the Angels of Chaos can be freed. We can't do such a thing, and Finn's order can only be created by His Majesty. ”

Finn's back wave pushes the front wave, the front wave dies on the beach, you goddess and empress should take care of this front wave, and exit after the creation.

Of course I won't let you die, I'm always ready to reach out and rescue you.

In order to let Theresia listen to the latter words, Li Qi tried hard to support her, but his heart was broken.

"Your reaction proves that I'm doing the right thing," Theresia's polite, perfunctory smile didn't change, "but I'm sure you're not here to say a few flattering words." ”

"Richie, if you have anything to say, do we still need to go around in circles, or rather, in meaningless circles?"

Theresia's tone was a little strange, and Li Qi could only understand that the Empress was particularly unhappy with the Red Covenant Organization and the Hell Plane Army, and as for other possibilities, such as not being happy with him for a long time, he automatically classified it into the column of self-inflicted affection and ignored it.

He was no longer secretive, and said directly: "We also heard that His Majesty intends to move the Order Divine Kingdom to Heavenly Mountain?"

Theresia's eyes flickered, but she didn't deny it: "Yes, I talked to many gods about this, what's wrong?

Li Qi didn't dare to stab to the end at once, but tactfully persuaded her: "The whereabouts of the part above the second layer of Heavenly Mountain are unknown, which means that Heavenly Mountain has encountered very terrible things, and Your Majesty should not be so reckless until you find out the details, right?"

"Your Majesty, I know that because of the Epsilon matter, it would make people feel that the motives are not pure, but Xiaohong and I have never denied that you represent the goodness and order of this era in the world of Fein. If something happens to you, the world will inevitably fall into a great crisis, and I hope you can be cautious about this matter, at least find out before making a decision. ”

Theresia chuckled, "Thank you so much for your concern, but...... It sounds like you're pretty sure of the dangers on the top of Paradise Mountain, so why don't you just say it?

"This ......"

Li Qi secretly gasped, remembering that Gorazk had said that he would prefer that Theresia would intervene in the bloody battle, could it be that he had already informed Theresia of the same news through some channel?

But if so, what is Theresia's strange tone for?

"That's ......"

Li Qi's heart was crossed, and although he had a faint bad feeling, he still told the news of Gorazk.

"Purgatory has a bottom, and the fragments above the second layer of Heavenly Mountain have been found?"

Contrary to Richie's expectations, Theresia's eyes widened and she looked extremely surprised.

"This is what Gorazk told me, you should know his words, always with ulterior motives, without credibility", Li Qi defended himself: "I also sent someone to verify, and I didn't dare to say it rashly until I confirmed it, after all, the matter is too unimaginable." ”

Theresia pondered for a long time, looked at him, and sighed in a low voice, "Honestly, your words are even less credible than Gorazk." ”

Li Qi was speechless, why did you blame me again?

"If there is really a path to purgatory from the top of the Heavenly Mountain, then it is even more necessary for me to move the kingdom of God there. ”

Theresia's tone turned high: "Purgatory and the abyss collide, and the bloody battle begins, that is just a matter of the inner plane, and I really can't interfere too much." But if the inner plane is connected to the outer plane, I can't ignore it. ”

"If you don't move the kingdom of God over and turn yourself into a barrier, when the era change intensifies again, the inner plane erupts, polluting the entire Heavenly Mountain, and the world of Fein will be finished. ”

"That's right", Li Qi no longer maintained a hypocritical and respectful posture, and directly scolded her: "Can you move to the Kingdom of God without figuring out the specific situation, what if you can't protect yourself? You are indeed a representative of goodness and order, but the change of epochs is the turmoil of the whole world, and you can't reverse such a force!"

Seeing Theresia's eyebrows raised, Li Qi knew that she was going to get angry, and quickly turned to an emotional offensive: "From the perspective of the gods, you are now the backbone of the whole world, and if something happens to you, none of us can bear your burden." From a mortal point of view, neither Catherine nor I want to see anything happen to you. ”

Unfortunately, Catherine was addicted to flying and didn't want to waste time chatting with her sister.

Theresia's expression was confused for a moment, then her gaze sharpened.

"Now that you know that there is danger, make it clear," she said coldly, "You don't need Gorazk to tell you what happened on the Heavenly Mountain." ”

Huh?

Li Qi was stunned, how do I know what happened in Heavenly Mountain?

"Look, how many secrets do you still have that you won't tell me?"

Theresia smiled, and at this time smiled a little sadly: "When I completely opened my mortal heart, and my body, to you, you are still wearing a thick disguise, which is too unfair. ”

Richie's heart sank, he didn't know why Theresia had changed like this, but he knew that the distance between the two was rapidly lengthening, even on a personal level.

I want to tell you everything, but your side as a god will turn my confession into a declaration of war, and we will immediately become mortal enemies!

"From the beginning, you had ulterior motives for me, right......"

"From the very beginning, you knew that I would follow this path, and eventually I would become one with God and one until I sat on the throne of order. You are using me on the one hand, and you are secretly accumulating power against me, and you have not forgotten to seduce my mortal heart. ”

"The matter of Conrad City, you are actually taking pity on me......"

"You have taken in the orphans of Conrad City, and have been teaching them not to forget the disaster, and to remember that I killed their relatives. ”

"You knew I was going to win, so try to be on my side.

"You know how to provoke me with Catherine, and by eroding my mortal heart with love, you make me ignore how much of a threat you and your goddess are to this world. ”

"You're still transforming those fallen Conrad souls in purgatory, they're the weapons that will come against me in the future, aren't they?"

As she spoke, her tone became more and more indignant: "You have succeeded! You have succeeded in putting your goddess among the gods, and you have succeeded in gaining a firm foothold in the main plane! You have also succeeded in dragging me down and making me ......."

She glared at Li Qi: "Now you are here again to stop me from making the right choice, and you are trying to impress me with mortal emotions, you are really shameless Li Qi!"

"No, it's you who are shameless! It's all at the behest of your goddess, who looks stupid on the face, but she's terrifyingly shrewd!"

was angrily scolded by Theresia, and Li Qi was dumbfounded. Fortunately, at this time, Xiaohong was reliving his social animal career in a doppelganger state, and there was no way to perceive his mind in real time, otherwise that guy would definitely run wild.

Honestly, these words made him feel unusually weak, and Theresia finally came to her senses, but how did she find out?

But after thinking about it again, Li Qi was extremely aggrieved.

Indeed, along the way, you have always used the Lord. But along the way, as long as there is an opportunity, they are trying to hold you, but you think you are absolutely right, and you can't pull it at all!

If they really want to use you wholeheartedly, why should they be excluded from the core power circle of the Dawning Empire by you? Why bother to show your banner to Xiaohong from the beginning and make you realize that the basic positions of the two sides are very different?

As for saying that private emotions are also exploited, Li Qi can't bear it even more.

"Theresia, don't be so irresponsible......"

Li Qi said sadly: "I didn't come to tease you first, it was you who first got me on the throne of death...... Ahem, it's yours...... Sacrifice makes me unable to extricate myself, you are the first to provoke me!"

"Now that you're going to be the goddess of order, you think it's a stain to continue to mingle with me, a mortal, so you want to kick me away and accuse me of seducing you?

"You are a goddess, you are an empress, but it does not mean that you can say white as black and deer as horses!"

Theresia stared blankly at Richie, as if she couldn't believe that the words were coming from his mouth, and it took a while for her to react.

Yubai's cheeks turned red rapidly, and she was a little flustered at first: "You, why are you so ...... Vulgar ......"

Then she barely calmed down, raised her chin and said proudly: "I can make the white turn black, I can make the deer turn into a horse, of course what I said is right, does this still need to be questioned?"

Damn, forget she's going to play this trick!

She said indignantly: "You still have the face to say that it is fair, that kind of thing is borne by women, what grievances do you men have?"

Li Qi also shouted angrily: "Say it as if I forced you every time!"

"I ......"

Theresia was so angry that her delicate body trembled: "I'm willing to be cheap!"

Li Qi sneered: "That's right, you don't want to be a person now, so you regard everything you do with me as a cheap thing." ”

Theresia's cheeks flushed: "I don't want to be a human being, I'm going to make ......."

She took her mouth, slowed down, and said hatefully: "In short, you have been deceiving me, do you dare to deny this?"

Li Qi thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "Whether it is in faith or private feelings, I have not deceived you. Theresia, don't you know what I'm looking for with Xiaohong, and you should feel it very clearly what I mean for you. ”

"I don't believe ——!"

Theresia said a little uncontrollably: "Unless you explain everything clearly in front of me!"

Li Qi was stunned for a moment, and Theresia sneered: "Look, you really don't dare." Or do you have to ask your goddess first, just like what happened to us before, and you got her permission first?"

Now is a very, very important juncture, and if you can't step out of this step, you may decide the future. Not only her own future, but also the future of Theresia and even the future of the whole world.

At that moment, such a strong premonition rose in Li Qi's heart.

"Where are you?"

Litchie made a decision in an instant: "I'll bring Catherine with ......"

Theresia said angrily, as if she had a fight, "Castle of Dawn in the Duchy of Norton!"

"You wait!"

"I'll wait for you!"
