Three hundred and fifty-three I'm Qili, Richie's personal assistant
"The world is round, not flat! This is especially important for women!"
Crimson God, Little Red Riding Hood gave a new order to Youzan: "I'll just say why the car has always had problems, because it only runs on a plane!"
"I don't drive a race car anymore, I drive a Gundam! Yes, turn the shape of Kiri into a Gundam to make it more comfortable to drive. Not...... That place is flattened, and the size is not allowed to be emphasized!"
Yuzan began to change the interface like a stacked block, and Little Red Riding Hood slapped again: "Little boys, move! Fill our rice tank as much as possible! Li Qi went back to the Storm Islands to settle accounts with the magician, we have to be ready for fire support!"
Autumn incense and thrush responded with crisp sounds, waving their white wings and dancing. In the primary divine power pool under Huabiao, strands of divine power with different colors of light fell into their hands, weaving into bundles of silver-white divine power, converging into the divine fire at the top of Huabiao.
"Dare to touch the old lady's thoughts, those demigods, and that Menesus are really tired!
Little Red Riding Hood hugged her arms, a cold light burst out in her eyes, and the heart of a mortal was sublimated into a heart of revenge at this moment, burning brightly.
..................
On the outer reefs of the Storm Isles, several magic towers are connected to form fortress-like structures, extending into the misty area behind the reef.
This is the entrance to the Storm Isles, where the sub-plane mask opens up a permanent spatial passage, allowing the Storm Isles to have a stable but relatively isolated connection with the main plane.
On the dock outside the magic tower, the ground lit up with blue light, weaving into a cumbersome magic circle, the space swayed, and dozens of figures suddenly appeared.
The men stayed for a long time to make sure they were back on the main plane, some shouting with joy and some with tears in their eyes.
The people thanked a tall samurai wearing a round helmet and a heavy cloak, and the samurai said in a clear voice, "I don't need your thanks......
"I know that many of your families are biased towards Ika, and perhaps some have been involved in plots against me, for you have relied on Ika's trade for thousands of years, which is your lifeblood. ”
"By now you should understand that the hurricane of world change has blown into the Storm Isles, and even the legalized sub-dimensional mask can't stop it. What happened at the celebration was a contest at a higher level, and the little interests you held were not worth mentioning in such a contest!"
The forty or fifty people on the scene were the lucky ones among the hundreds of guests, who were not thrown into the Chaotic Void when the membrane failed, and then escaped the disaster caused by Qili's battle with Peiluo. When Kiri gathered her men and prepared to teleport, these people also appeared, begging for their lives.
These people are basically representatives of various families, and among them there is a legend called Mosmut. In that environment, even if it is a legend, it cannot resist the power of the world of the outer plane, and without the help of Qili, it is impossible to return to the main plane at all.
Chilly consulted Francis, and after confirming that it wouldn't take much effort to teleport the men back together, she agreed.
Humanitarianism is one side of the story, but more important is political considerations.
Kiri continued, "I don't need your thanks, I don't want to ask for anything in return, I just want you to be a little more sober and neutral in the coming storm. If you had the least of sense, you would have made such a choice. ”
"You are still holding this so-called lifeline, and you are as unwise as trying to prop up a house in a storm. The house is blown away by the storm, that is an irresistible force, and if a person wants to fly with the house, it is stupid to die. If you lose your house, aren't people still there? ”
These words made the magicians present nod their heads, and this reason is very easy to understand.
Although it is unclear why Menesus brazenly took action to kill the Duke of Prell and Perrot and them, the original situation has changed.
These people present were either the patriarchs of the middle families or the core dignitaries of the big families, and they all knew the link of the membrane plane fragments. This is definitely not an accident, but a deliberate trap. It was Menesus who presided over the membrane, and only he could do such a thing, and the murderer must be him.
It's just that he can deal with Perro and them, but he still thinks about it, but he didn't expect Menesus to be killed together with Duke Prell.
Then in the Chaotic Void, the demigods fought on a higher level, and the demigods came down to help Duke Prell, and everyone saw the vision.
What does this mean? It means that Menesus and the Duke of Prell are engaged in a life-and-death battle at a higher level.
When Duke Prell first arrived, he stood with Menesus, Ted and other families to deal with the Fragrance family. Now that the Duke of Prell and Menesus are hostile to each other, the Incense Sect has become a trembling little character caught in the middle.
Now that the Duke of Prell is back in the Storm Isles, he looks like a teacher and a guilty questioner. The fragrance faction still has to stick to its previous position, both sides are scared, how hard are their brains?
The Duke of Prell's suggestion is also very practical, not asking them to support him, only asking for neutrality, which is exactly what many people intend.
"Your Excellency, the Artur Law of Magic you brought is just the beginning, isn't it?
"This means that you will harm the interests of all the families of the Storm Islands, and Menesus will take action against you, which is also in the overall interest of the Storm Islands," said the legendary Mosmut. ”
"You are here on behalf of Queen Theresia, and this must be the official attitude of the Alliance of Order. In other words, the original intention of the Alliance of Order was to stir up a revolutionary storm in the Storm Islands......"
He sighed, "By the way, you have made such a statement in the High Council before, thinking that the revolution in the Storm Islands has not yet succeeded. We thought you were talking nonsense, but we didn't expect that. ”
The others were stunned at the same time......
"The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard", that's right!
The atmosphere on the dock suddenly cooled down, and even Qili's heart was beating.
It was true that she didn't know why Menesus wanted to solve her, but this was the most plausible explanation for Little Red Riding Hood's beliefs.
The direction of magic technology represented by Artur's magic array law will greatly damage the interests of the magician family, and Menesus represents the collective interests of the upper echelons of magicians, and uses physical annihilation to stifle this trend of change, which is a possibility that "Operation Storm" has considered.
What does Mosmut mean by revealing this background?
The legendary magician snorted coldly, and then said, "However, Menesus wants to kill Pero with us, and such an overall interest obviously does not count us in it. ”
There was obvious hatred on his face: "We actually know the situation on Erxiang's side, and even the business federation is about to collapse, but it can be delayed for a day." Since our families are destined to decline, why don't we let all families return to the starting point and welcome the new era together?"
Suffer from inequality......
Don't think about it if I'm uncomfortable......
I'm going to fall overboard, so I'm going to rip you out of the water too......
Sure enough, no matter what world it is in, the nature of mortals will not change.
Mosmut bowed to Qili: "My family is willing to remain neutral, even ...... If the Duke needs anything, we will also seriously consider it and provide necessary assistance. ”
This turn of events was really surprising, and then the representatives of the family echoed it, making Qi Li secretly glad that it was indeed the right choice to bring them all back.
Most of them left in a hurry after expressing their attitude, and a few people stayed behind, actually to show their loyalty. In the eyes of these people, as long as they can block Menesus, there is no difference between standing with Ika and standing with the Alliance of Order.
They reported some information as a petition, and when they heard the name Gretta, they were surprised.
That Kota must be helping Grita with her errands, and she also wants to get the power of the Mildern family. Sure enough, it was the same as Zold's description: "Her ambition is as deep as her people, and her scheming is as ruthless as Morning Star." ”
"It's not convenient to tell you the exact plan, but you can consult with Zold, and he will tell you what to do, yes, Zold-Mildern," said Kirly. ”
Leave this power to Zold, after all, he knows these families better.
After dealing with them, Kiri summoned Poppy and Finn again: "You guys are here to recuperate first, and by the way, take care of the bodies of your comrades, according to the plan, Captain Elon should be there tomorrow at the latest......"
This return trip brought back not only forty or fifty living people, but also the remains of three comrades-in-arms. This is also another martyrdom of a member of the Fei Communist Party after the conflict with Prince Belino on the Plateau of the Fallen Gods.
"We cannot leave the ...... cardinal"
"The cardinal can't go back alone......"
Poppy and Finn are resolute, they are indeed seriously injured, and the remains of their comrades need to be cared for, but more importantly, the safety of the cardinal, which is their duty.
Though...... They all had some suspicions that the person in front of them was not the real cardinal, but the incarnation of the goddess.
His voice became softer, and his body under the cloak was different from Richie's. What's even more obvious is that the round and big helmet, no matter how you look at it, is deliberately covering your face!
Relly said, "I'm not going to meet up with Finney right away......"
As soon as he teleported back, he received a message from Insi, which was obviously done by Insi's explosion. The witches must have sensed that he was back, and asked Insi to inform him of something.
It's just an indescribable, very vague idea, which can only vaguely say "we are safe", but it can also deduce unfinished meanings such as "don't rush" and "do according to plan".
Her heart was hanging high, and she decided to go to Silver City alone to make some preparations, and then meet up with Finnie and the others tomorrow.
It's definitely not because you can't turn back into Richie until the middle of the night!
"It's an order!"
Qi Li's words and tone dispelled the suspicions of the two fortresses, and it was indeed a term that only cardinals would have.
Just as he was about to go, the ring on his finger vibrated and glowed slightly blue.
Hathaway's Newsletter!?
Damn, this is exposed......
Qi Li was so annoyed that she forgot to take off her ring.
In the previous battle with Perro, because the impact of power was too strong, his spatial ring, Bilible Boy, and Zold's communication ring were all destroyed. Fortunately, the lesson of the Temple of Grace has long been learned, the space ring does not contain any valuables, and the recording chip in the Bilibili Boy is also good, and the loss is not big.
At the time, I didn't pay attention to whether Hathaway's communication ring was good, but I didn't expect it to go wrong.
Now that Menesus has made a move, Hathaway must have also sided with the Mentor, and now the two sides are enemies.
Thinking back to the previous showdown over Silver City and the moment when I shook hands with Hathaway, I was thinking that I hoped it would not be the last handshake, and the flag was erected at that time.
Qili turned to the corner of the dock, but it was still connected, so let's hear what she had to say.
I don't know if it's too long, or if I'm really too worried, in short, words full of emotions erupt from the ring, and the speed of speech is so fast that it loses the familiar elegance and reserve.
"Richie, you're back!, great! I'm scared to death!"
"Don't worry, your saintess and subordinates are all fine, on my territory, even if it is my mentor, don't think about taking them away!"
"We need to talk in person, right now!"
Huh——!
Strange was stunned, this was too unexpected.
Hathaway and Menesus weren't in the same group? Sounds like they're falling out?
"Richie, speak, do you suspect that I am? I'm afraid this is a trap, and I'm actually trying to arrest you?"
Thanks for the reminder, it is possible!
"But you didn't lose the ring, doesn't it mean you still want to trust me?"
I'm ashamed, but in fact, this series of changes came too suddenly, and there were too many things, so I forgot to throw them away.
"I hear you're panting, you're hesitating......"
I'm scolding myself for being stupid!
"Well, I'll show you my sincerity, I, Hathaway Ted, am actually the Holy Maiden of the Night Lady......"
Qi Li coughed, she should have thought of it a long time ago!
When they first met her at Tangus's ball, Little Red Riding Hood said that she, like Theresia, had the physique of a saint.
How is it possible to hide a saint in the Storm Isles, the home of magicians? unless there is a covert and powerful organization.
When Shadow City knew that the Night Lady had a deep connection with the Storm Islands, he should have thought about it.
By the time Francis said that the Storm Islands might be a testing ground for the Night Lady, and that the High Council had had a Night's Watch for thousands of years, these clues were connected, but unfortunately he didn't have time to think about it at the time.
"What I said to you at last year's ball, I meant it. What I seek is the freedom of mortals, and this is the mission entrusted to me by the Night Lady. ”
Hathaway's tone was unusually solemn, and Cherry sensed her sincerity: "I don't know what the mission entrusted to you by Lady Crimson is, but I believe that we at least have a common starting point when it comes to mortal freedom. ”
That's right, that's how you were judged in the first place. Even the end is the same, but the road is different.
Hathaway's voice became muffled: "Richie, it's your turn......"
Qili opened her mouth to speak, but suddenly realized her current state, and suddenly had a headache.
If you talk face-to-face, you can also use a helmet to disguise the change in voice, but now it's just a voice exchange, and the voice is a little different, Hathaway can hear it, don't forget that she is a legend.
Ignore it for now?
Originally still having a headache and missing Hathaway, she could only rely on Zolde and Shadow City, how to play the game of chess in the Storm Islands. Now that Hathaway is still on her side, she can't refuse the hand of trust she stretched out.
It's time to sacrifice something......
Chillie dissipated her helmet and took a deep breath, relaxing her whole body, making sure her voice and tone were natural.
Then she said in a crisp and pleasant voice, "Hello, I'm Qili, Richie's...... Personal assistant, I will tell him exactly what you just said. ”
On the other side of the ring, Hathaway didn't know whether she was too shocked or embarrassed, and she was silent for a while.
Then she seemed to be trying to endure some emotion, and said in a stiff tone, "So, Qili, where is he?"
"He ......"
After thinking about the original plan, Qili made a decision: "If you want to see him in a hurry, go to ...... in the early hours of the morning"
