Chapter Seventy-Seven: There Is No Other Way

The door of the interrogation room opened again, and Luo Ling, dressed in a smart work outfit, walked out of it. When Ji Yijun saw the smile on her face, he always felt that she was like a cunning little fox. As Rowling walked past him, she gently patted him on the shoulder and said, "Learn a little later." ”

Ji Yijun watched her walk by, not knowing what she was referring to, but then he saw Rod coming out of the interrogation room, and he understood in his heart.

Completely different from when he was interrogated, this man's face was less indifferent and mixed with pride, but with a hint of relief. Seeing Ji Yijun staring at his face, he let out a low laugh and said, "That's why I avoid magicians, they are always shrewd and extraordinary, aggressive but hard for you to object. ”

"What? what did she ask you to do?" asked Ji Yijun.

"Huh. Rhodes stretched out a hand, Ji Yijun was stunned for a moment, and shook it with some doubts. Rod shook it vigorously, so much so that he coughed several times: "In the future, we will be colleagues." I'm going to be at the service of Master Luo Ling, oh no, this place. I'll dig out the temple bugs that are secretly stirring up trouble for you one by one. After that, maybe ......" He didn't continue, but smiled slightly.

"You're going to join us? I remember you weren't planning to stay a day ago. You want to take advantage of us. Ji Yijun withdrew his hand and said.

"Ahem, Master Luo Ling is a very convincing person. Rod spread his hands, turned around and walked slowly outside.

Ji Yijun chased after him and asked, "She promised you benefits?"

Rod covered the bandages on his body with his hands, walked forward slowly, and said, "If a truth is also good, then it is. Hopefully she's right. ”

"What did she say?" Ji Yijun asked.

Rhodes shook his head and asked, "Do you people really don't have a natural respect for God?"

"God, that kind of ethereal thing, it's strange to believe it. Ji Yijun replied naturally.

"It's not about faith, it's about ...... For example, believers in the god of war do not believe in the god of harvest, but they still maintain basic respect for him. ”

Ji Yijun stopped and looked at Rhodes with scrutiny: "I don't like people riding on my head, let alone respect." God or those who speak in God's name. No one is more noble than myself. ”

"However, even if there is no god, there will be a king, and even if there is no king, I see that Miss Luo is also in charge of you. ”

"I can take her place one day if I want to! But God or something, I am not happy to be given an invisible seat so high that no one can reach it. ”

Rod pondered for a while and said, "If it were in the past, I would have used my sword to argue with you." But now...... Maybe these words are exactly what I should have heard. ”

With that, he waved his hand at Ji Yijun, and then walked slowly towards the door.

"What's wrong with this man, God is babbling. Ji Yijun looked at the other party's departing figure and muttered to himself.

——————————————————————

Count Arias sat on a wooden chair, still dressed in the dress of the banquet, but now he had lost all the grace of that time, he was bowed back, elbows to knees, hands clasped on his chin, like an old stone statue, staring at Selinda lying on the bed without saying a word.

Pinto stood beside the Count with a serious expression, not knowing what to think. And next to Selinda's bed, Master Banderas, holding a glowing hedron in his hand, moved back and forth above Selinda.

Li Jia stood at the head of the bed, her eyes anxiously going back and forth between the Count and Selinda. Xiao Chen leaned against the wall and quietly observed the earl's expression.

As for the rest, each with their own weapons, they faintly confronted the Earl's guards on the periphery.

With a bang, the hedron in Master Banderas's hand flashed violently, and then shattered into a white powder, which scattered around Selinda one after another, some of which even floated onto her face. Banderas waved his hand, and a gust of wind swept away the scattered dust. He looked up at the Earl, then shook his head and said, "Dear Pani, this matter is beyond my ability, and I can't judge Selinda's current state. However, one thing is certain, she is not in good shape right now, and it won't last long. ”

"Will there be a way for you in the Healer's Tower or the God's Refining Tower?" the Count asked, his voice hoarse.

"Whether they have a way or not, they are far away in the royal capital. Even now, I'm skeptical that Selinda will be able to make it to that point. Perhaps......" Master Banderas glanced at Xiao Chen, "we should listen to this young man's opinion. ”

The earl straightened up, looked up at Xiao Chen, and asked, "Your Excellency Xiao Chen, can't you really give me a guarantee?"

"There is no guarantee, I have already said that I have never dealt with anything like this. It's just a best-effort afterthought. As for the result, it may only be left to luck. ”

The Earl pursed his lips and spat out the decision for a long time: "Then do it." ”

Xiao Chen looked at Selinda, and then at the other end of the room, at the other end of the room, the maid Nina who was lying on the bed and ignored, and said, "Then Li Jia will try to repair Selinda's consciousness, and I will try to repair Nina's meditation world." ”

"What!" said the Earl Huo Ran as he stood up, and said with anger in his tone, "Your Excellency, you have more power and use it on that maid?"

This is the scheme offered by the spirit of the book of the Holy Scriptures. He thinks this configuration is the most appropriate. ”

"Is this revenge?"

"Your Excellency, from the beginning of the incident to the present, everything I have done has been for the sake of saving people better. Selinda made mistakes, but mistakes are meant to be corrected, not revenged. You can trust my sincerity in this matter, otherwise, I would have chosen to do nothing. Xiao Chen said word by word, although his voice was not loud, but obviously every word expressed his attitude: "Selinda is a magician after all, and she knows something about spiritual power. Li Jia is also a very close person to her, which is very helpful for awakening consciousness. Nina is not, so her situation requires a strong psychic creation ability. For you, you care about your daughter far more than anyone else. But for me, both of them are patients I want to save, and I have to choose the most appropriate solution. ”

"Your Excellency, please believe in my abilities, besides you, I am the one here who cares most about Selinda's safety. I'm not going to joke with her life either. Li Jia also said.

The Count glanced at the two of them and whispered a few words to Pinto. Pinto ran out of the door, and soon he brought back a middle-aged knight, who was a little emaciated and his face was full of panic, and he hurried in, first saluting the Count, and then his eyes were fixed on Nina lying on the bed.

"What do you say, Holmes?" asked the Count in a mild tone.

The middle-aged knight named Holmes knelt down on one knee in front of the Count and said in a bit of a panic, "My lord, Nina failed to stop Miss Selinda from reading that book, she ...... She was guilty. ”

He didn't get up, but turned his head to Xiao Chen and said, "Your Excellency Magician, please try your best to save Miss Selinda first, and then if Nina can survive, please save her again." This is my request as Nina's father. ”

Xiao Chen looked at the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground and didn't speak, but the partners behind him erupted into a soft discussion. Ye Zi leaned over to Xiao Chen's side and said, "Senior, you can't listen to these people. It's a farce. What do you say?" she looked at the others.

Roger spoke with some embarrassment, "This man is a loyal knight, and he has not broken his promise to defend the lord's family. ”

"Although I don't like this choice, it seems that the earl's daughter is more important?" Shi Hao said softly in an uncertain tone, "Moreover, speaking of which, this is also their family matter, and the doctor's operation depends on the family's opinion." ”

"Why are you like this!" Ye Zi looked at Li Jia, but Li Jia avoided his gaze and did not make a sound.

"Senior, you!" Ye Zi was about to have a seizure, but was pulled by Xi Luo.

"What are you doing?" Ye Zi glared at Ciro angrily, thinking that this guy was also going to speak for Selinda.

But I heard the middle-aged businessman whisper to her in a loud mosquito voice: "Don't worry. Lord Xiao Chen is not easily swayed by others. ”

Xiao Chen really turned a deaf ear to these discussions, he reached out to Lahoms, the middle-aged knight wanted to resist, but he didn't expect Xiao Chen's strength to be very strong, and he dragged him up.

Xiao Chen let go of his hand, he still wanted to kneel, but he heard Xiao Chen say: "I don't like people to kneel and beg me, especially to use love and loyalty as bargaining chips." Stand still and listen to me!"

Xiao Chen's tone was not heavy, but it sounded like thunder in Holmes's ears, Holmes took a step back, tripped over the foot of the bed, and sat on Nina's bed.

"Look behind you. Think about what you want. Xiao Chen said.

"What are you doing here, teaching my knights with magic?" asked the Count.

"I didn't use any magic, and each of us had to face the torture of our own inner will. If it fails, that's a source of vulnerability. Xiao Chen looked at Holmes and said, the latter only looked at Xiao Chen for less than a second before losing the courage to look up.

Xiao Chen didn't care about him anymore, but walked up to the earl and asked, "Your Excellency, please tell me, what is the basis of the cooperation we talked about before, is it persecution and pressure, or trust and equality?"

"Does it have anything to do with this?"

"Not only relevant, but also the most important step right now. ”

The two looked at each other, and the room was silent, making everyone feel that time had become very long.

"You people seem to be living in another world. The Count tilted his head, his gaze falling on Selinda again, "I don't know why you are always acting like an upside-down donkey on some of the branches. But...... All right. Our cooperation is of course reciprocal. ”

"Then I think we have to make sure that we have enough say in our respective fields. Only by performing their duties can they show their strengths. ”

"Hmph, can each perform his own duties and show his strengths?" the earl sighed, raised his hand and nodded at Xiao Chen, "Please always remember what Selinda means to me!"

"I'm well aware. Xiao Chen patted the book in his hand and said, "So we shouldn't waste time here." ”
