"I am just a referee, how can I have so much power!"

In the office of the director of the Lorma City Inquisition, Duck faced Isabella and Catherine with a helpless expression: "Hickstu is not my subordinate, does he need to report to me if he wants to send someone?"

Catherine said, "But he's good friends with you, right?

"Miss, you have to make one thing clear, he does this, similar to venture capital, there are huge benefits behind it. Because his radical faction is the weakest of all the Holy Sect factions, although he has gained a foothold in the North Sea Alliance, he may have to develop for ten or eight years to compete with several other major factions, and it will be too late to say anything at that time. After such a long time, it is difficult to say whether the North Sea Alliance will kick him away. He wanted to take a gamble. With or without me, he'll have this step. Of course, he did it wisely. ”

Catherine smiled, "Okay, okay, I didn't say you did something wrong, Lord Chief." In any case, it would be nice to have peace one day earlier. ”

"It's boring. ”

"Huh?"

"I can guess the script with my toes, everything goes well, and then the Holy Envoy himself comes over, and there is an assassination, and both sides tear their faces and then cut them, and then the conspirators hide to the side hehehe. Really, it's going to be busy for a while......" Duck lay lazily on his desk, burying his head in the crook of his arm, "Catherine, tell Vanessa and Georgina to keep an eye on the Vision, and tell the town hall to go through all the corners of the city!"

"Yes!"

Sending Catherine out the door, Duck continued to lie on the table: "Lala, come, hug." ”

Isabella was unhappy: "I didn't even have my hands outstretched, I didn't have sincerity." ”

Duck smiled, stretched out his arms, took the girl into his arms, and sat on his lap with her.

Isabella thought at first that he was going to be thin again, but who knew that Duck only put his forehead on her neck twice, and then gently hugged her waist, and pressed his face against her back, not moving.

"Dark, you've worked hard. ”

"I'm a little tired, I can't talk about it, but I kind of like it. First, it feels great to be trusted and respected by others, and secondly, I start to feel satisfied. ”

"What do you mean?"

"You know, when I faced George before, I was always a little lacking in confidence, this guy is like a fortune-divining stick, he is very accurate, and his alchemy is exquisite, I even thought that if human beings were really created by God, then God must have been in a good mood when he created him. ”

"And now?" said the girl with a smile, "I'll be mentally prepared, you can blow it at ease." ”

"What do you mean by blowing, really. In alchemy, each has its own merits, I am not as good as him in theory, and he is not as good as me in application. If I talk about the knowledge of the world, now I can say that I am not necessarily worse than him. ”

Isabella shook her shoulders slightly, and Duck sat up straight in agreement, allowing her to lean back comfortably.

"Dak, you're getting more confident. ”

Dark's gaze looked out the window at the blue sky: "I kind of feel George's mood back then - I know what the present is and what the future might be, and most people are just ants." Don't worry, I'm not him, I'm me. ”

"I know. Dark?"

"Huh?"

"It's almost over, isn't it?

"Yes, I promise you, Lala, it's almost over. God finally listened to me, first with the Reformation, then with the policy of secularization, then with the separation of church and state, and finally, let God dwell in the spiritual home of mankind and return the present world to mankind. ”

Isabella stretched out her arms, gently wrapped her arms around her lover's neck, and pecked him lightly on the lips: "Come on." I'll help you. ”

Duck tapped her on the shoulder, and Isabella stood up and asked, "What are you worried about now?"

"Urbino's next move. Playing with conspiracy, I'm not as good as him. Since we all foresaw that he would undermine the reconciliation between the radicals and the traditionalists, we certainly wouldn't just commit an assassination. Where is his advantage? pray, preach, incite, or ...... Technology?"

"The technical possibilities are relatively high. When Master Nicholas was under house arrest, he was in charge of the affairs and took the opportunity to steal a lot of Iron Fang's technology, I suspect it includes the Cruel Angel, and in Jagenk, he stole the Psychic Hive technology from Georgina. ”

Duck became serious: "You're right, with these two techniques in hand, there is a great possibility that he will take risks." Use these techniques to turn the tables on the battlefield and then boast everything to the will of God. ”

"Fortunately, I've heard George say that the cruel angel technology in Master Nicholas's hands is not complete, and the stolen Mind Hive technology is also a weakened imitation. ”

"Who can say for sure about alchemy, we have to take the initiative. Contact Petrarch and let the Black Holy Land take action, pay close attention to the recent flow of high-level alchemy materials, and inform Royce that the Rohr Chamber of Commerce will assist in investigating the flow of funds of the ascetic groups involved in the riots in various places, the intersection of the two must be related to his research and development institution, as long as the location is determined, we will surprise him!"

"Good idea, then he has no way back. What are we going to do now?"

"I will meet with Archbishop Whitemire, make every effort to reconcile the radicals and traditionalists as soon as possible, and then invite Hikstu to visit in my personal name; ”

"Leave it to me—what are you doing? Oh, no, this is the office!"

Duck smirked: "The business arrangements are almost over, how about some private matters? ”

Isabella was ashamed: "I hate it to death, I said it in the alley last time, and the result - don't, don't touch it, I hate ......"

Duck hippie smiley: "Last time was last time, this time it definitely won't-"

Before the words fell, Fernández pushed open the door and rushed in: "Director, urgent...... Uh......"

Isabella exclaimed, ashamed to plunge under the table.

The man's hand maintained the shape of a dragon's claw, and the old man's eyes were met, embarrassed to death.

The old man didn't know where to put his hands on: "Uh, that...... Urgent...... Belch...... situation!"

Duck coughed majestically, hid his hand, and said with a righteous and awe-inspiring face: "Well, well, what's the situation?"

"Discover a monster, a real monster, a monster that's a little special. ”

Duck suddenly came to his senses: "Where is the real monster?"

"The Tarquin Mountains, the Ostilus Forest. ”

"Right next to our city's plantation?"

"Yes. A farmer found it in an orchard, and then it fled. ”

"Witnesses, great, are you still alive?"

"Luckily alive, the monster shook him when he fled. ”

"What do you mean when you escape?"

According to the farmer, the monster was more than three meters tall, humanoid, and very muscular, like a moving rock golem, with deep footprints wherever it walked, and the shock wave from the ground when it fled knocked him down. ”

"Sounds tough, is there any other message?"

"The farmer shot him once with a musket, hitting, but didn't seem to do any damage. The monster unleashed healing on itself and fled through the wall. ”

"Healing is interesting, notify the arrest team, prepare it, and dispatch it!"
