Chapter 378: An Unspeakable Invitation
When you look at things from different angles, your perception will change accordingly.
Ling Yi was deeply convinced of this.
Rome is also known as the 'City of Culture', and when viewed from above, it looks like the land is full of stars, and the streets are full of lights, and the streets dotted with shops and neon lights are like dragons.
"I suddenly want to go to China."
Ling Yi rubbed his chin and said something for no reason.
The big knight sitting next to him suddenly frowned and said:
"If you're going to start a war in China, that's not the best way to go. The Sect Master of the 'Marquis Vauban Sworn Enemy' will not sit idly by and be targeted by three god killers at the same time, are you serious? ”
Ling Yi sneered when he heard this: "Don't make a big fuss, Kusla. Gascoigne had already arrived, and he was probably looking for me at the [Female Wolf Headquarters] this time, but no one could have imagined that I had already flown away. Vauban wasn't that impulsive, and I asked Liliana to convey the message to him, 'I'm waiting for you in Japan,' and if he were a soldier, he would understand. As for the Master."
If Erica is the proud daughter of the sky who combines the essence of Milan, then the uncrowned king who is even higher than her, the Luo Hao sect leader who leads the spell world of the Celestial Empire, is a peerless beauty who embodies the essence of the ancient oriental culture.
But at the same time-
"I have to admit that whether it is martial arts or power, she is above me. My swordsmanship is at most eighty percent of Salbatore's, and Salbatore is the only one who can match hers. Although she and Vauban are neck and neck. But as far as I can see, she's much more difficult to deal with than Vauban is. Ling Yi said unhurriedly.
"In the eyes of my subordinates, how about trying to form an alliance with the Luo Hao Sect Master?" Kusra said tentatively.
"It's going to get me in trouble."
Ling Yi immediately refused.
He couldn't explain to Kusla the bond he had with Luo Hao a few years ago.
"Forget it. Then again, is it really good that you don't say goodbye? It was a reception banquet carefully planned by the [female wolf], and if the protagonist was not there, it was inevitable that they would not be dissatisfied. "Kusra is good for this, and there is no need to explain why, as long as it is not good for the sovereign, he will not take it into consideration.
"Don't worry about it, I'm just too lazy to waste time with them. I'm not a politician. There's no need to be vain. Of course, part of the reason was that he didn't want Gascoigne to succeed, and the reason why he came all the way to this inexplicable banquet was nothing more than to investigate my details. It's best to be able to talk face-to-face. For him, who is good at figuring out people's hearts. This type of investigation is more valuable than literal intelligence. Generally speaking, people who like to go off the rails are good at figuring out people's hearts and can't see the weaknesses of their enemies. And how to attack with all your might? The so-called sword goes sideways, in fact, it is gambling, betting that the enemy will not notice his weaknesses, and he didn't expect his attack to be so sharp, and before he could react, the sword was on his neck, and that's it. I myself am the one who is proficient in this way, and if I know it, how can I do what he wants? ”
Ling Yi suddenly paused, revealing a smile with a deep meaning.
"However, there is also a saying that the plan is calculated."
Hearing this, Kusla shook his head as if he had seen the black prince's angry appearance.
He still can't understand what kind of education this master has received since he was a child, even if he is a military family, it is impossible to have such professional tactical literacy.
*******************
Poseidon, the god of the sea, is her old enemy.
At least according to Greek legend, it should be like that.
However, it is not said that I hate the sea because of this. The sea and the earth are also deeply related to the essence of her seizure, the origin of life.
What she really hated was the sun.
The shining light, the throne of the glorious sky, is what makes the queen of the night truly unhappy.
No, it's just not fast. It's not unbearable.
The sun and the fire of life are indispensable elements in the chain between life and death.
It should also be the Queen's duty to accept this light.
- Not true.
The idea is inappropriate and different.
She's not yet 'Athena'. She has not yet regained her status as the goddess of the Trinity.
Barely left in her empty memory, the sigh of her mother, the shame of the queen, the wisdom of the old woman.
Coming soon
If you retrieve the ancient serpent Gorgon, you will become the real Athena yourself.
While enduring the sea breeze on the beach, she inquired about the whereabouts of the snake. Where is it? Where is it waiting for her? Westside? With that man in that far west?
She smiled slightly.
The Stone of Gorgon is not far away.
Still, the man who took the 'serpent', it was quite a long time ago that he met the godkiller. It's been hundreds of years, maybe thousands of years, since I finally met that guy.
Athena, the goddess of battle, made a sound of joy at the approaching enemy.
***************
At the same time, a strange scene is happening in the corner of the banquet.
With a handsome face, it lacks intimacy. But it's not that he's in a bad mood, he's like that, he looks like he's unreasonable, but full of reason and strong willpower.
Black hair and fair skin. The figure is tall and sturdy, which is very suitable for the title of noble son.
He seems to be particularly fond of black, wearing a bright and neat suit, black tie, black leather boots, and if he is adding gloves, he is a noble deacon.
Alexander. Gascoigne.
At the age of sixteen, he became a god-killer and has been in it for ten years.
The emperor who rules the dark side of the British Empire.
Of course, more people call him 'Alec, the Black Prince'. But only those who know him will call Alec to his face.
In a sense, Alec is very bad at dealing with this kind of person.
But today there are exceptions.
"What is this?"
Alec asked quietly, glancing at what was in the other's hand.
Recently. He and his subordinate Bing Nan came uninvited, although no one noticed their existence, but Bing Nan thought that 'it would be a bit rude if he was recognized, but I can't let you come forward, my words are the most appropriate' and left, probably as a servant of the king to announce the arrival of the black prince to the host, but it doesn't matter, no matter what happens next, he doesn't plan to stay for long, as for Dennis's words. You can find him anyway.
Really. Knights who can't fly are simply incompetent.
If you are a knight, you should hold the reins and control the plane.
Of course, that's not the point.
The point is after. Someone is the alien in front of him dressed in human clothes, not to mention finding him. Say something to give you.
Stuff? What could it be? No. Compared to this, who sent it is the key.
"Black Prince Alec, this is the clue you have been looking for for a long time."
His voice sounded very unmotivated.
"Who sent you? Ling Yi? ”
Alec looked the other man in the eye. It's a pity that all I saw was black and white eyes with no motivation and no fluctuations.
The other party is also dressed strangely.
However, this is because of his strange way of speaking and temperament.
Plain brown suit, slightly messy hair, short stubble on the chin.
It looks like a thirty-year-old, a forty-year-old, and a fifty-year-old.
On the whole, it is a very contradictory existence.
No, this person should not have been on this occasion.
But he showed up anyway, and no one noticed him except Alec.
It's like being deprived of a sense of existence.
For example, a drop of ink falls into clear water, but it remains in its original state, neither polluting the other water, nor disappearing.
Alec is well aware that this guy is not a human, but a monster with a human appearance.
He didn't know exactly what kind of monster it was.
This is not to belittle, to discredit, but to narrate the facts.
"Fortunately, you understood quickly, it really helped me a lot, and it was too troublesome to explain them one by one."
With a human appearance, 'he' still maintains his usual languid and slow pace.
"My words, me? It's the first time I've called myself like this, forget it, I'm Lefa Tirgate, just call Lefa. In short, I suddenly feel like I want to laugh when I serve the master for the time being, but forget it, I still have to rely on him to help me transfer a thing to you. ”
The way 'he' speaks is amazing.
But Alec was aware of one fact.
"Your master, do you know I'm coming?
Hearing this, 'he' seemed to want to laugh, but failed.
The corners of his mouth were cracked, and there was only a smile, but no smile.
It's so fake, it's so fake that it makes people shudder.
"Yes, yes, if you don't take it, I'll have a hard time. Of course, I also made a lot of preparations to prevent this from happening - so is what the master said. But it seems to me that Alec, the Black Prince, should be ready to deal with any difficulties when he hears the word 'Holy Grail', right? ”
"You mean, this thing has something to do with the Holy Grail?"
The other party's words are soft and weak, but they are like pervasive mud, slowly seeping into the hearts of others.
Alec resisted the feeling of uneasiness and said coldly.
"As you say."
He' said, holding the object in both hands and showing it to Alec.
It is a box with a delicate pattern on the surface, which is clearly the product of modern craftsmanship.
Is it a curse that triggers whenever you touch it?
Or open the spirit summoning trap that will reveal countless evil thoughts.
With all sorts of thoughts in mind, Alec took the box rather cautiously.
"Goodbye then."
I saw 'he' bow respectfully.
Then, the Black Prince disappeared from the banquet hall.
'He' kept bowing, and the corners of his mouth widened from an angle that was invisible to others, almost splitting to the base of his ear.
"-- Have a nice trip."
No one could hear the echo of Low Nan. (To be continued......)
