The next afternoon, at Gamma City Airport, Richie, Aurora, and Reloel put Ariel on the plane.

The livery of this aircraft is obviously different from that of the Red Union fighter, and the monkfish passenger plane with the words "Prell Airlines" printed on the fuselage comes from the Prell City Air Trading Company, which is a passenger transport enterprise run by the Prell City businessmen themselves, and is working hard to expand routes around the country.

That's right, the owner of this trading house is Sebadian.

"I'll try to stop the war, Sister Aurora!"

Before getting on the plane, Ariel still said her heart to Aurora, after all, she was a simple girl who was not yet eighteen years old.

"Go back to the Dukedom and recuperate, don't wade into this muddy water. ”

Aurora stroked her blonde hair and said lovingly, "It's not a responsibility you can afford. ”

Ariel puffed out her cheeks, holding back what she wanted to say.

Aurora, Richie and the others had their own thoughts, and they didn't pay attention to Ariel's condition for a while.

The airliner took off, followed by four sardines, escorting the airliner to Prell City. The Red Union has informed the Kingdom of Hadlang and Don through the Trade Winds Network that they will be there to greet Ariel.

Sending off this little trouble that Finn had brought back, Richie and Aurora returned to Beta City and held a solemn military meeting in the Pantheon conference room.

"We don't have specific information about the main fleet of the Empire, only a rough idea that they are hiding in the north. Judging from the situation of material mobilization within the empire in the past two days, it is very likely that it has been dispatched. ”

The round hook was guilty, the intelligence bureau's forces in the north were too weak to catch the specific movements of the main fleet of the empire.

Li Qi sighed: "Judging from Tina's report, Theresia has dredged the spatial passage from Valentine to Everincense, and is strengthening her strength to find the space to seal the remains of Kelasdra and Berron. ”

"Romulos is tight-lipped on this matter, and must have reached a close offensive and defensive alliance with Theresia, perhaps behind it is the tacit understanding between the goddess of order and the god of tyranny, and cannot find a way to divide them. ”

Gambit frowned: "These two sides must be going on at the same time, the purpose is to make it impossible for us to concentrate on coping." ”

Li Qi nodded solemnly, this is the source of the solemn atmosphere of the venue.

If you want to solve the matter on Erxiang's side, you have to mobilize him, Xiaohong, and all the high-level combat power.

But the Floating Fleet can't be taken lightly, with the lessons of the Battle of the Traveler's Wilderness, even if Theresia didn't expect that she still had hole cards, she would have some targeted arrangements.

What's more, Theresia must have hole cards that she didn't see on her side, such as the one that suddenly appeared in the Cimberner......

At the beginning of the Dawn War, Litchie led the armored cluster to fight the Northern Coalition forces north of Valentine, and was overshadowed by Simberner.

After the invasion of Valentine, clashes broke out between the two sides. At the time, Richie thought that Simberner had been killed by Mitch, but it didn't take long to learn that he had just killed his weird incarnation.

All legends can perform incarnation skills, and this Simbner is not trivial.

Unfortunately, after that, Simberner disappeared. Now that he is serving as Minister of Magic alongside Hathaway's uncle Gordon and Mosmut, who specializes in building floating ships, he must have a lot to rely on.

Therefore, against the floating fleet, if there are not a few high-level combat forces in charge, it will definitely be very dangerous.

As a result, there is a dilemma that there is a shortage of manpower to take care of both ends.

Next to her, Sunny Xiaohong tried to curl up to reduce her sense of presence, which was also related to her.

"Don't shrink ......"

Li Qi was a little amused and held her collar to sit upright: "No one blames you." ”

Xiaohong rubbed her nose and said, "Really, but I can't cross that threshold myself, if I had gotten out of Kelastro's body, not only would I not have seen this thing in front of me, maybe we would have solved Tresia's problem by controlling Kelastro's body?"

Li Qi persuaded her: "If you really do the kind of thing that the Fragrance People did, maybe we won't survive now, and we will be brushed up by Keira Theresia as a copy of the Evil." ”

Xiaohong thought for a while and nodded with relief: "That's right, that's the truth." And of course I won't let you do such a heavy thing. ”

Li Qi angrily knocked her on a violent shudder, what is a heavy taste? Why are you still involved with me!

I didn't say that Hathaway's grandfather, Menesus, did the kind of thing that the Goddess of Magic did!

"Believe, Linde! Believe, everybody!"

Catherine expressed her determination first: "I, go to Erxiang!"

The original plan was for her to lead the air force to face the main fleet of the empire, and with her in charge, she could at least offset the opponent's high-level combat power.

However, if Theresia completely solves the problem of Kelastro, the Emperor of Order will receive the full Throne of Order. Even if the main fleet is defeated, this result will only be a temporary setback for the Dawning Empire.

Of course, from a personal point of view, Catherine wants to stop her sister with her own hands.

Li Qi frowned: "On the side of the floating fleet, there must be a witch in charge." ”

Gambitt, Wilson, Round Hook, as well as Stan, Asuna, Finn and others who attended through the Internet spoke one after another, all refuting Rich's remarks.

"Cardinal, these are two wars!"

Gambit said: "Your Majesty Xiaohong, your highnesses, and the cardinal, you are fighting a war between gods, and the floating fleet is a war of mortals. ”

His expression was generous and awe-inspiring: "We only have a few people who can participate in the war of the gods, and we can't help too much. If the war on the mortal side still requires the intervention of Your Highnesses and the Cardinal, then our efforts on the path of Cosmopolitanism for so long will be a failure. ”

The corners of Li Qi's mouth twitched, you kid is really impressive, you can't slip away with a big hat!

"Oh, what's so bothering!"

Xiaohong was annoyed, slapped the table and said, "I'll do it alone!" Carry 1,800 tons of crystal titanium rods and kill them directly, and the gods will block and kill the gods and Buddhas!"

Li Qi squinted: "And then be trapped and staged Xiaohong is not miserable? The current fragrance is not the same fragrance as before, the corrupt black gas is so thick, and there are so many witches, just grab a few and arrange them into traps, you will definitely jump in happily!"

"In a blink of an eye, I can think of thirty ways to pit you, and then through your imbuing with crimson divine power, we will all be finished!

Xiao Hong was stunned, lying on the table and moaning weakly: "So, I can't go to ...... either"

She suddenly became energetic again: "Then I'll deal with the floating fleet!"

Aurora sighed: "Little Red, do you think you are an idler? Theresia will let you wipe out the main fleet she has worked so hard to manage with a wave of your hand? There must be a pit waiting for you over there!"

"And I don't believe that Theresia is arranged in these two ways, Epsilon side, maybe she is going to do something, is it really good that you don't sit there?"

That's right, Xiaohong can't go either, and must guard Epsillon.

Li Qi glanced at the conference room, looked at everyone's expressions one by one, and finally said decisively: "Then so be it, we will each do our part." ”

Among the witches, except for Vicky, who is acting like a demon, Fini, Aurora, Catherine, Retana, and Karin are all dispatched. Insi Misi and these silk witches are also included, and Eve can't escape, she is a fragrance person.

In addition to about 100 cardinal guards from the Cardinals' Office, he was accompanied by Sadar. He put on a very eye-catching performance last night, so even though Relore was reluctant, Litchie put Sardar on the list.

In addition, there is also the first commando team of the Legion Committee, commonly known as the "Hammer Commando", and the hell barbarians are not less, and the environment of Erxiang is suitable for them to play, but it is a pity that they can't make more purgatory enchantments for a while, otherwise the combat effectiveness will go to a higher level.

Coupled with the capable men and horses drawn by the Intelligence Bureau, this "Fragrance Mixed Commando" has a total of four or five hundred people, and I believe that even if it is tough with the men and horses on the side of Garromroth, the hand of order, it will not be inferior.

Dealing with the floating fleet, even with two squadrons of male sharks and one squadron of horned whales, Li Qi is still not at ease.

"The project to convert sardines is going well on the engineering department's side, and we can temporarily stop transporting the Bled migrants and bring the guards back. Together with the existing pilots, a total of four or five hundred aircraft can be used to threaten the Sardine fleet of the floating ship. ”

Linde, deputy commander of the air force, said: "If the sharks and horned whales do not stop the enemy, they can still rely on this force." ”

Stan followed: "The air defense works of Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Epsilon are progressing steadily, and even if the Mirhorns incident repeats itself, or even if it is several times more violent, our regional integration departments will have the confidence to ensure that the population will not be seriously harmed!"

Wilson said heroically: "That's right, even if everything is broken, so what!? The Red Union was built from scratch in the wilderness and jungle, and it can be rebuilt after it is broken!

Aurora's eyes flashed, and she nodded slowly: "Most of our people in the Red Federation are barefoot, but they are not afraid of wearing shoes on the side of the Dawning Empire. ”

Richie coughs, although this is indeed an advantage, but it always feels hurtful to say it......

"So, let's get ready for battle! I can't wait to get a dungeon to gain experience! It's not enough to have a level but no skills!"

Karin shouted, the sunflower on her head swaying slowly, making people seep into the panic.

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

At dusk, in the Valentine Castle, the nervous Ariel was led into the side hall by the attendants.

This is the place where the Emperor uses to meet his close ministers, and although there is nothing wrong with etiquette, Ariel still feels that something is wrong. When she used to come to Valentine, Theresia used to see her in her study.

That place talks more casually, unlike here, where a high platform rises in an empty hall. On the back of the throne on the high platform, a number of angel statues surround it, more like a sub-shrine.

It's okay, at least the atmosphere here is more suitable for getting down to business, rather than being beaten by Theresia in the study.

A moment later, hurried footsteps were heard, and Theresia appeared. White dress and golden crown, as before.

Whether it was her appearance, look, or attitude, Theresia looked normal, holding Ariel's hand affectionately and comforting her.

"You say...... Is there anything very important that you have to tell me face to face?"

Pulling Ariel onto the high platform, Theresia asked gently, "Let's just say it, you are my sister, I originally wanted you to come to Valentine to help me with government affairs." Your father is too old to cope. ”

Ariel saluted in trepidation, and then said timidly: "Yes, that's the case, Your Majesty......"

Theresia sat on the throne and listened quietly.

Ariel stuttered at first, but gradually became smoother. When she talked about the founding celebration of the Red Union and what she had seen and heard in various towns, her tone became cheerful and joyful, which made Theresia's brow furrow a little.

"You all go out ......"

Theresia waved off the guards and squires, looked at Ariel, and sighed deeply, "End the war, Ariel, do you know the origin of this war?"

Ariel's heart instantly fell from warm to cold, and she reluctantly smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I know that everyone has different beliefs, but can't everyone live their own lives? Even if some people have different beliefs, but they can live their own lives, it doesn't matter what." ”

Theresia shook her head: "Ariel, you can't understand this war without the corresponding experience. ”

"You don't even know why the war happened, where do you get the confidence that you can convince me that you can stop it?"

"This is not the most important thing, the core question is, if you don't believe in order and don't have enough devotion to me, thinking that relying on the connection of mortal blood, you can influence my decision?"

Theresia sank into the throne and looked at Ariel with her golden pupils, "I'm not surprised by what you've said today, knowing that when you were kidnapped to Richie, I knew that you would be bewitched by the Crimson Faith. ”

"It's also my fault, you're not just Hadran's regent princess, I have more expectations for you, I should have made you firm in your faith sooner. ”

Ariel took a step back in horror, she clearly sensed that the Theresia in front of her was very different from the previous Theresia.

Then she came to her senses, knelt down on her knees, bowed her head and called: "Your Majesty the Goddess......"

This is Kayla Theresia, the goddess of order...... Maybe it's Theresia, not the mortal Theresia, not her cousin!

The goddess Theresia said in a sarcastic tone, "Very well, at least you still have a minimum of respect for the gods, I thought you came back from there and saw the gods as puppets or something." ”

This made Ariel very puzzled, why did the goddess have such a tone?

"Ariel, I'll give you a chance as you are connected to my mortal body. ”

The goddess Theresia said: "Although I am one man and god, the affairs of the empire are becoming more and more onerous, I need a spokesperson who is pious enough, are you willing to be the saint of order?"

Ariel hesitated, "But I'm a disciple of His Majesty Sif Sif , is that good?"

Theresia said, "I decide all the priesthood of Sif with my word, and it is not his turn to beak a single believer." ”

Theresia's voice grew farther and farther away, not from the body on the throne, but it sounded louder and louder to Ariel, and even made her feel like she was in a dream.

Ariel dared to say no, and said in a loud voice: "If I can afford such a responsibility, please ask Your Majesty to take my life and soul, this is my glory!"

With a sonorous thud, Ariel was startled and looked up slightly to see Theresia draw her sword of loyalty and lean it against her shoulder.

She breathed a sigh of relief, it was like a king canonizing a nobleman and a nobleman canonizing a knight, and the goddess wanted to canonize herself as a saint with such a ceremony.

With apprehension, she waited for the sword to fall, but there was no movement for a long time.

Surprised to open his eyes and look again, he saw the sword body diffused with golden light and dust trembling in midair, and looking up again, Ariel almost exclaimed in surprise.

Theresia's eyes gleamed with gold, and her beautiful cheeks twitched, as if she was struggling with why.

"Ai ...... Ariel ......"

Theresia said in a low voice, eagerly, "Leave, leave...... Here......"

What happened to Theresia!?

Concern instantly overflowed Ariel's heart, and she rushed up and hugged Theresia: "Your Majesty...... What's wrong with you!?"

"Hurry ......"

The corners of Theresia's mouth twisted, and she struggled to spit out a word: "Get out!"

Armed with courage, Ariel exclaimed, "Tell me! What can I do!?"

Theresia's originally revealed gray pupils were obscured by golden light, and her expression disappeared in an instant, becoming indifferent and inhuman.

"Give everything to me, Ariel, and act as the mortal embodiment for me. ”

Theresia's voice grew distant and loud, and golden light shot out of her eyes, leaving her soul confused and confused before it could reach Ariel's eyes.

"No ——!"

Theresia exclaimed in surprise again, and the golden light shone on the mirror-smooth floor, and suddenly two traces of light and dust continued to disperse.

As if something exploded in the spirit world, Ariel's body went limp, and the world in her perception suddenly changed.

It was still the Imperial Palace, but it had become incomparably grand and magnificent, and the air was filled with golden light, burning her body like a continuous flame.

She didn't know that she was actually a spirit now, and she only felt that the burning was painful, but there was an endless surge of joy in her soul, as if she was cheering for the fate that was about to come. But the other part of the soul is in endless fear, as if in purgatory.

In a blur, she saw two figures facing each other, one towering, like a huge statue, and it was Theresia. Sword and shield, white dress and silver armor, divine beauty to the extreme, and solemn and indifferent to the extreme.

The other figure was just a white dress fluttering, and that was Theresia too. Although she is also extremely beautiful, the roundness of her cheeks makes her no longer divine, and her body is ......

The bulging abdomen made Ariel's consciousness suddenly condense, and for a moment resisted the infiltration of divine power, this is a ...... Pot-bellied Theresia!

Theresia's up there......

Ariel subconsciously prayed, what the hell is going on!?

The pot-bellied Theresia said angrily, "You can't betray me!

The idol Theresia said: "Although mortal love can make the heart of a mortal be fulfilled without leaving a hole that threatens the heart of the gods, but now your persistence is betraying me and betraying yourself." ”

"Theresia, if you don't give up that kind of love again, you will let all your past efforts come to naught!"

The mortal Theresia shook her head vigorously: "Certainly...... There must be a way to get the best of both worlds, not to hurt my daughter, not to hurt my sister!"

"The best way to dissolve Ariel's soul and make her the embodiment of order and let her take over the empire as the Holy Maiden of Order," said the idol Theresia, "As for my daughter, she has not yet condensed her soul, but is nothing but a mass of flesh. Only by getting rid of this lump of meat can I completely eliminate my worries. ”

Tears rolled down the cheeks of the mortal Theresia, and she murmured, "There must be a way, the best of both worlds." ”
