Chapter Seventy-Six: Voluntary Participation

Macora turned to Xiao Chen again, he changed his face to be completely different from just now, his eyebrows and eyes were friendly, and he said with some anger: "Your Excellency Xiao Chen, Sancho from Montenegro is the one who can't get along with you, this guy has been staring at you since Montenegro, as if several of his subordinates have died in your camp." But it's not your fault, who told his people not to be cautious enough, and if I send someone to sneak into the Royal Magic Tower, it won't end well. So, at the time, I thought it would be a waste of time to track you down, but Yepes stood up for him and insisted that we keep an eye on you. We can only pretend to cooperate, but I myself have not been involved in anything against you!"

Xiao Chen looked at Marcola with some surprise, he really couldn't accept that the other party's painting style changed so quickly. Just now, he was still mighty and unyielding, but in the blink of an eye, he became a pug.

"I thought you'd be a hero when you went outside. I didn't expect your attitude...... It really makes me a little uncomfortable. Xiao Chen looked at Macora, trying to find some unnatural traces in his expression, but the latter's demeanor seemed sincere and sincere, if it weren't for the previous battle in the Dream Trial, Xiao Chen felt that he was like a new good friend.

"What kind of people I treat, what kind of attitude I naturally use. The previous things were all misunderstandings, and it turned out that I thought you were an enemy of the Nature Temple, so naturally I couldn't reveal anything to you. The warriors of the Shadow Regiment will never surrender to the enemy, and it is our nature to die rather than give in. Macora grinned, "But it's very different now, and now that we know that you and Lord Roland are together, of course we are our own people." ”

"Who and you are your own people. Do you know how disgusting you look?" Garno snorted.

Macora had a somewhat self-effacing demeanor: "Lord Garneau, Lord Roland, you and Your Excellency Xiao Chen are at least not my enemies, we have some misunderstandings at most." Naturally, I'm going to explain it to you. Don't think of me as a vacillating, capricious person. ”

Xiao Chen found that the other party's words could still be justified, and he admired the other party's eloquence a little, "Then you are willing to tell the information now?"

Macora replied, "It's up to Lord Garneau's promise." As long as you agree to my request just now, I will tell you whatever I have to say. ”

Garneau looked at Xiao Chen, as if he couldn't make up his mind.

Xiao Chen said: "I think this matter should be reported to Priest Roland." It's up to him to decide the fate of Macora. ”

Garneau nodded and said to Macora, "Then let's go." I hope you don't make any unsmart moves along the way. ”

"Of course, this is a big opportunity for me and I will cherish it. Macora said with a smile.

Early the next morning, Garneau secretly visited Xiao Chen again.

In the study, he sat opposite Xiao Chen, drinking a glass of Coke, he drank very slowly, very slowly, after he drank this thing once, he completely fell in love with the magical taste bubbling in his mouth. Hearing that it was a precious drink left by ancient magicians, and that there was only a little left in the world, he felt that he should taste it slowly.

"Macora has earned it. Garneau swallowed a small sip of Coke and said with a sigh of relief, "Needless to say, he's now our ally." ”

"This guy really takes his chances. ”

"But what did he do a long time ago? Lord Roland has been in the king for some time, and I have never seen him say anything, and after all, he was not forced by a knife. Mistress Rowland's words were, 'Let him help us for a while, why don't you use those who can use it for nothing?'" said Garneau.

"Priest Roland, are you reminding me of something?"

Garneau smiled, "I don't know anything else, I just know that adults value you very differently from others." Like those of us who like to draw circles of relationships between people, like the rings of a tree, Marcora is now standing at most on the bark side of the tree, and even if you are not in the center of the tree, you are not far from there. ”

"Then I would like to thank Priest Rowland for his attention. ”

"Hehe, alright, here's what Macora told us. Their Shadow Regiment suffered a big loss the last time they were there with you, and they were killed six people before and after. Now, in order to avoid losses, there are no one around to watch. However, the night after tomorrow, they are going to concentrate on a raid here, with the goal of arresting you back for interrogation, and if you can't catch you, you will arrest some others. ”

"These people actually attacked a magician's residence in the royal capital?" Xiao Chen knew that in the complex royal capital, the Shadow Troupe was far from covering the sky with one hand.

"Because you haven't been going out lately, they're going to have to come on their own. ”

"That's beyond the normal rules of the game, isn't it?"

"Hehe, if you had formed an alliance with Priest Roland earlier, there would have been no such thing. But now, you've done it more than once, and the Shadowbolts have killed so many people, and if they don't react, it's hard to even account internally. ”

"Can Priest Roland intercede now?"

"My lord guessed that you would ask this, and he asked me to answer you like this: First of all, the alliance between us should be known as little as possible, because it is not only about the little things that are up to now, but also about many big things to come. It is not worth it to put us in front of the people of the royal capital for such a thing. Secondly, it's not in the interest of the adults to stop now, and Macora doesn't deserve our hand in the Shadowbolts, so everything needs to be pushed forward as planned. There is a wise saying that says, 'The lion waits for the right moment before he can catch its prey.' ’”

"Priest Roland has to clean the courtyard so that he can move in with peace of mind, right?" Xiao Chen said.

Garno laughed, "I like this metaphor, but there is also a big internal divide between the bugs and the rats. Macora didn't want to get involved in this in the first place, because it would be a hassle to provoke the registered mages of the Magic Society. But Sancho is already at odds with you. His men died the most, and many of them were his cronies. This matter has also been followed by him since Montenegro, and if he can't get the following, then his future will be ruined.

So no matter what you have a problem, or even no problem at all, he will throw a big basin of dirty water on you, and even make up some sensational accusations on your head. For example, you are the remnant of the God of War Temple, for example, you are involved in the Temple of Wisdom, or you are actually the descendant of the Seven Towers. These crimes, which are completely out of tune and the most taboo in the temple, have always been directly killed without any evidence. Other forces are not very likely to interfere in the temple's case, after all, this is the bottom line of the temple. That way, they'll be able to resist the Magical Society's questioning and kill you. ”

"It's really out of tune. Xiao Chen nodded in agreement.

Garneau smiled and swallowed the last sip of Coke, "And what is your plan?"

"He's going to fight. Xiao Chen stood up with his hands on the table, he raised his hand and pointed around, "But I can't fight here anymore, I can treasure my own bottles and cans." ”
