Chapter 1: Breaking In

In January of the 568th year of the Altino calendar, Reins took the royal capital

Although it is vague in the annals of history, for the long-stalemate Reynes Civil War, the exit of Bai Qi, the first son of the Bai family, is really a major change.

Prior to this, Lancelot and Bai Xing's two camps were unable to break through this anxious predicament due to their lack of resources and strength. Lancelot's chief staff member Cang Yuecao once said that there are only two ways to break the current deadlock: Lancelot's camp has sufficient resources, and the daytime camp has more than two heavenly masters.

Although the situation is not in Lancelot's favor, such a change is not a good thing compared to letting the civil war drag on indefinitely, and therefore, Lancelot does not dare to carelessly prepare for the heavenly battle that will take place the next day.

However, the development of events disappointed both sides. The day after Bai Qi left the customs, there was no fierce battle that broke out as expected, although the Bai Xing side launched an attack, but it was only on the usual scale, and Han Te, who did not use the Ancient Demon Dao weapon and should be the main force of the attack, did not even see a human figure.

"Your Excellency, are you really sure that there will be a big battle today?

Lancelot, who had been staying at the head of the city to supervise the battle, could not answer the questions of the defending generals, and only looked at the daytime camp from afar.

Although there are still doubts about whether the other party is feintifying and secretly planning some kind of conspiracy, it seems that the enemy will not make any big moves today.

(Go! Sooner or later, why don't you show up?) )

Confused, Lancelot scratched his hair and let go of his grip on the hilt, but remained vigilant in his heart. Staring in the direction of the Bai Xing camp, although he couldn't feel the strong murderous aura and battle intent of the heavenly opponent, there was another sense of depression that the mountain rain was about to come, which accumulated in his chest, making him unhappy.

After confirming that there would be no major battles today, Lancelot left the city and secretly rushed to the Ancient Demon Research Institute to meet with Ailing. According to the agreement between the two of them last night, Ailing should go to the research institute today to carry out the action they have been preparing for a long time.

It's just that after entering the Jixia School Palace, Lancelot pricked up his ears to listen, but he didn't hear any special news, obviously Ailing didn't put his plan into action today. When Lancelot came to Eling's residence, he saw that the door was locked and no one was visible, and if it weren't for the note posted on the door, implying that the original action was delayed by a day, Lancelot would almost think that Eling was about to retreat and escape from Jixia.

As a result, when the day ended, Lancelot, who was full of stuffiness, came to Hotel Street alone and drank with a sullen headache. He shouldn't have had any reason to be angry, but all the expected things didn't happen, which gave him a sense of confusion.

(Isn't it a plot in the making...... )

Not good at strategy, Lancelot guessed the tactics that the enemy might use, but he couldn't get an answer, although he was not worried, but he still couldn't avoid a certain amount of psychological pressure.

Just when Lancelot was spending his time drinking, the two staff members belonging to his camp were using the water mirror technique to communicate across thousands of miles of distance.

"Hmm...... So it seems that nothing happened to you over there today?"

"It's conceivable that I'm going to do the same. It would be unwise to attack without figuring out the situation. Xiaocao said softly: "What's more, one blow, then decline, and three exhaustion, this is the right way to deal with my husband, and it is a good way to deal with my husband with this method." ”

Through the rippling water mirror, Xiaocao looked at the figure of his companion in the distance.

The disheveled clothes, disheveled sideburns, and embarrassed appearance look more like a beating than just a fight with someone, and a dark circle on the left eye socket is even more obvious evidence. Rao is like this, but Gengoro is smiling and shrugging his shoulders easily.

"Heh, it seems that your family is very difficult to serve!"

"Well...... Each other!" Gengoro said with a smile: "Miss Nier is busy practicing, and she has to find some opponents to cooperate, if I don't get out of the game, no one in the North Gate Tianguan can cooperate, and I can't let her practice every time, and there will be heavy casualties here! I am a person who is ready to spend my life with Miss Nier, as long as the Heavenly Demon Power does not fully explode, some fists and kicks can still withstand it......"

"I think you're underwhelmed. Xiaocao shook her head and smiled, and didn't say anything more. No matter how weird it sounds, since one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, it is the private matter of the two in-laws, and he only needs to be responsible for smiling.

"Gossip aside, has the whereabouts of that genius girl been found?"

"This ......" Xiaocao smiled: "Things are going a little unexpectedly, my husband's hands and feet, this time it's surprisingly fast!"

At the beginning, after Xiaocao informed Gengoro of the news that another Ancient Demon Dodge had joined the Bai Xing party, several possible candidates immediately appeared in the mind of this beautiful young man, and the one at the top of the list was the famous craftsman of the Demon Realm. Beethoven's daughter, the girl who was taught the knowledge of the ancient magic path by the Japanese sage Emperor Taiji, and walked in the world under the name of "Ailing".

Although it is said that the two sides have not met again since the separation of Alambat Mountain, since there is a clear object, as long as the person is still in the human realm, it is not difficult to find the intelligence network of the Qinglou Alliance. It took a little longer than expected, and the Qinglou Alliance finally found out Ailing's whereabouts, passed the information to Gengoro, and then transferred it from him to Xiaocao.

Knowing that there were such strange people in Jixia City, Xiaocao was really taken aback. Reading the report and learning about the scandal that happened in the research institute, she was angry. I have long known that the elders of the research institute attach great importance to the opinions of the door, and the racial differences are even more serious, but they are not skilled and can't rectify the research institute well, how could they have thought that such a thing would be made, and a rare good talent would be sent to the enemy in vain, fortunately, Bai Xing is a fool, if he is hostile to Zhou Gongjin, let this girl defect to Altino, this is an irreparable major loss.

However, the world is really unpredictable, this strange person who should be caught as soon as possible was discovered by Lancelot, and the two seem to have some plans.

Xiaocao couldn't help but wonder, no wonder the Qinglou envoy had such a strange expression when he sent the information. She then rushes to Eileen's residence and finds Eling having a secret conversation with Lancelot. Don't dare to startle the snake, she hid to the side, listened to the conversation between the two, with her supreme intelligence, figured out the ins and outs of the whole thing in a few words, and then, she appeared in front of Ailing who was going to the research institute to implement the plan in a different way......

"Oh, the boss is really capable! It looks like he's messing things up all the time, but as soon as he makes a move, he grasps the most critical talent. With a slight stunnedness, Gengoro never thought that Lancelot would have such good luck, and sighed: "But, are you doing this well?

seemed to be concerned, but Kokusa could hear the mockery, and knew that Gengoro had always been dissatisfied with her way of conniving and protecting her husband too much, and she didn't want to explain much about this.

"I really plan to succeed and fail, and take his decision-making as the main premise, and I only do the auxiliary work, so this time, I will also follow his plan, just make a little reinforcement to improve the feasibility of the plan. ”

Xiaocao said it implicitly, but how could Gengoro not expect that if Lancelot's plan was not likely to succeed, how could Xiaocao, who had always put her husband's wishes first, interfere?

"And...... My eldest brother is out of the country, and in order to prevent this war from prolonging and causing too many changes, I must end the war as soon as possible......"

Finally getting to the point, Gengoro looked upset and said, "Bai Dagongzi, can make the Bai family's crazy genius Bai Junhuang who has seen once in a thousand years also fear three points, that is really not to be underestimated!"

In the current Wind Continent, Bai Dagongzi is still just a small person with an unknown name, but all the masters who have read the high-secret files of the Qinglou Alliance have been famous for a long time because most of the information is carried by the word "unknown", and they want to see where he is sacred?

"In terms of strength, although the eldest brother has integrated the first three arts of the Bai family's six arts, he may not be better than her husband's Hongyi Knife when he fights in a tie, but it is just ......"

"It's just that the real threat of your eldest brother does not lie in the first three arts, but in his martial arts. Gengoro sighed:

"To this day, I still don't understand, how can anyone practice this weird kung fu? It seems that the boss is really in trouble this time. ”

"Now that the eldest brother is on the same front as Daytime, his actions and thoughts are not something I can guess out of thin air, the worst case scenario, this civil war will be completely out of my control, all I can do now is to try to end the civil war before then. ”

In the water mirror, Xiaocao's beautiful face was tinged with a layer of melancholy. One Lancelot alone is enough to make all the plans go wrong, and with the enemy having such a tricky character, Gengoro really can't answer what the end of this war is.

"That doesn't sound good, but how's the boss doing?"

"Not so good. Xiaocao shook his head and said: "He seems to be still confused, and the whole person looks very unenergetic, which makes people very worried!"

Worried about Lancelot's situation, Kokusa had previously discussed with Gengoro and came to a common conclusion: Lancelot was confused about his positioning.

Ever since leaving Kiglou, Lancelot has had doubts about his place in life. He had the intention of becoming a leader, because in terms of personality, Lancelot was born with a stubborn temper that hated obeying people, but when he was arched as a leader by his subordinates and became the head of a country, the hidden problems immediately surfaced.

In Lancelot's camp, Gengoro's mentality is somewhat negotiable, but he is generally obedient to Lancelot's orders, and the rest are like Xiaocao, Nier, and Kaede, not to mention, it is completely with Lancelot as the main body, which can be aggregated into an organization. It's just that, in the face of a group of relatives and friends, Lancelot can't help but wonder, why is he leading these people?

In terms of resourcefulness, he is far inferior to Kokusa and Gengoro, and when it comes to erudition, even that daytime walk is far superior to him. The only thing that he is good at is martial arts, but although he has a heavenly cultivation, he has not yet reached the point of excellence, compared with everyone, he is slightly better than Nier and Feng'er, but if he fights to the death, the victory or defeat is still unpredictable;

In comparison, Lancelot simply did not have a power base that stood firmly above the crowd. Seriously speaking, in the small group that belongs to him, he may only be qualified to lead the Shetters. At the same time, as a leader, what can you do for your subordinates?

What should he do? It was also a question of great thought, which deeply distressed him.

If Lancelot could be like snow, completely unconcerned about the meaning of his existence, and live as if no one else was around, then everything would be much easier, but he couldn't ignore these thoughts, and this was the reason for the trouble.

The birth of the Jacob Declaration is a representation of Lancelot's ambivalent feelings. The roar of the citizens in front of him was his struggle to break through the predicament by himself, and if everything went in that direction, although it would open up a difficult road to destruction, perhaps Lancelot would find a way that suited him.

However, the elders of the Reyns court faction took clever measures to trap Lancelot's wildness with gentle restraint.

When the problem can be solved without taking strong measures, Lancelot naturally does not want to go on a killing spree in his wife's kingdom, so he makes three agreements with the elders.

Using the rules of the game that he is not good at, Lancelot's mood is like being put on an invisible shackle, and as the war progresses, his heart is becoming more and more confused. In order to find out, Lancelot made a lot of efforts. He has never liked to think deeply, but the reason why he plunged headlong into the library and read desperately made people feel his eagerness to change his mood.

"The motivation is good, but the method is wrong. Gengoro shook his head and said: "Monkeys have monkey ways of thinking, and they reluctantly want to apply human models, and in the end, they will only draw tigers into dogs, and become something that is not like a four." ”

"Oh, that's so beautiful, then why did you keep trying to force the monkey to become a human a while ago?" The words pierced the other party's contradictions, looking at Gengoro's stammering appearance, Xiaocao smiled bitterly: "I think that this stage of confusion is the life course that my husband will go through sooner or later, and it may not be a good thing to be able to face it early, I just hope that he can understand it as soon as possible, otherwise it is very dangerous to face my eldest brother in this state." ”

“..................”

"Don't just talk about me, what's going on over there, is the five-color flag still working?"

"It's very useful, very obedient, I'm training that noble son, add a little more helpers, otherwise when the war starts, this person may not be enough!"

"Is there a war? Don't you think the Hua family's movements are a little strange, as if they ...... It's too slow. ”

"Hit by the unexpected blow of the fall of the North Gate Tianguan, the dispatch of the army will inevitably be affected, in this regard, a little late is not worth the surprise, according to estimates, if Hua Tianxi still wants to attack the North Gate Tianguan, at the latest within a month, the army will come here. ”

"What if after a month, the Hua family's army still hasn't appeared?"

"In that case...... Gengoro said slowly, "the two of us are really going to be worried." ”

In the case that few people know about it, the situation is going in the direction predicted by Kokusa and Gengoro, and the most direct impact is happening before the Ancient Demon Dao Research Institute.

Standing for a moment, the girl looked up at the building facilities of the research institute as she had done yesterday morning, and took a few deep breaths to calm her nervous mood.

(Calm down...... I want to calm down...... There is only one chance, and whether you can turn everything around depends on this time...... )

For today's performance, a whole day of special training has been carried out yesterday, and the kind-hearted Bai San Gongzi, in addition to providing many props, also taught himself how to overcome the secret of timidity. This is his last chance, and there is no other way out.

Compared with the last time I played in front of the daytime, this time the drama is more difficult and the time is longer, can I hold on?

(If you want to raise your chin high, you must not say "I'm sorry", "It's all my fault", "I don't know", these three sentences are absolutely forbidden...... Haven't you forgotten anything?)

The feet were tight, and it was the pet dog that followed him, as if he was impatient with the cowardice of his master, and made a urging.

"yes! I can't let you look down on me! Okay...... Cappuccino, let's go!"

Adjusting her breath again, the girl walked out of the bushes where she was hiding, stepped on swift steps, accompanied by her dog, and went straight to the research institute.

Due to the strong rejection of the two parties, the future of the institute is worrying, and the declaration of Lancelot a few days ago made the people regard the institute as an accomplice to the atrocities, and several things had a knock-on effect, and the reputation of the institute fell to an unprecedented low.

Lancelot's indifferent attitude needless to say, according to the announcement of the day, when he broke through the city, he would immediately go to the research institute to start a massacre; out of the research institute, the entire Jixia Academy Palace cast strange eyes on the graduate students, they should have been at the peak of Jixia academics, and if they fell to the bottom, the heavy psychological pressure made many researchers rush to the sick, and the consumption of various stomach medicines and headache medicines skyrocketed.

In some ways, they share the same problems as Lancelot: they have excellent professional talents, but they are generally inadequate, they are aware of the predicament they are in, but they don't know how to break through, and they can only find a way out of nowhere.

However, for many students of the Institute, today is really a memorable day, and the unpleasant dullness has been broken.

As the highest academic unit of the Ancient Demon Dao, it is really disgraceful for the research institute to use manpower to watch the door, so each entrance and exit of the research institute has a sophisticated electronic system to scan the identity of the person entering and exiting at any time, and once the check is wrong, countermeasures will be taken to capture, kill, or kill the suspicious elements on the spot.

All along, this system has worked effectively to provide security for the Institute, but today it seems a little special, the first to notice an intruder is not the security system responsible for monitoring the entrances and exits, but the handymen who sprinkle and sweep the outer courtyard of the Institute.

A group of gardeners, who were concentrating on mowing the grass, caught a glimpse of a slender figure at the gate, walking briskly, followed by a mechanical dog. They were slightly surprised that she wasn't wearing a researcher's white uniform, nor was she dressed as a normal handyman.

When passing through the door inspection device, the other party did not put his eyes close to the scanning hole like a normal graduate student passing through the door, and although he raised his hand, he did not put it on the fingerprint reader, but only waved it lightly in the air.

It was too far away to see what she had done, but as she passed through the gate, a strange metallic noise suddenly sounded, and the whole system seemed to lose power and was paralyzed in an instant.

"How...... How?"

Abnormal strange things, everyone was dumbfounded, and they didn't think about how to deal with it, the uninvited guest had already come to everyone, staring at the main building of the research institute. As the vigilance system came into operation, three heavy alloy guards quickly fell and sealed the gate.

"Tsk, nothing else, the door closes pretty fast......"

Noticing that there was something strange in her eyes staring at the alloy guard, a gardener who was watching kindly advised, "This is ...... Unless it's one of those heavenly monsters, it's impossible for a single person to open this door, and if it touches ......."

The exhortation turned into an exclamation, as a result of a glimpse of more than a dozen menacing mechs, which were specially added by the researchers in consideration of the possible armed conflict in the near future.

"Heavenly power, I don't have that brute force!" the other party replied succinctly, and at the same time squatted down and quickly operated on the back of the mechanical dog.

"Uncles, please stand back!"

After the operation, the mechanical dog opened its mouth, and a snow-white dazzling light lit up in its mouth......

"Wait a minute...... It's going to be a bit noisy. ”

"Attention, all units, the security system at the main entrance is paralyzed for unknown reasons, and it is suspected that suspicious elements have forcibly invaded ......"

Through the radio, the electronic voice warning quickly spread throughout the research institute, which immediately caused a commotion among the researchers, and everyone hurriedly put down their work and hurried to visit the situation. Usually practicing the Bai family's martial arts to learn fitness, there are many martial arts experts among the researchers, and the overall martial arts level is the first in the grass, at this time the machinery fails, and there is a garrison group composed of researchers, rushing to the outdoors to intercept the comers.

"What happened to the system at the front gate, why did it suddenly go down?"

"I don't know, I suspect that it was interfered with by strong electromagnetic waves, and the whole thing was lost. ”

"Rice bucket, has the main building's defense system been activated?"

"It's activated, the alloy gates are lowered, and the mechanics are dispatched to defend themselves. ”

"Armed mechs, if you're a first-class master, is that kind of toy useful?"

The security regiment rushed to the main entrance of the main building to exchange information with the control room of the operating system. Mechanical soldiers are products developed by the research institute, in the eyes of researchers, the value of tools is much higher than that of weapons, they are expensive, and they can be effective when fighting in the earthly realm, but in the face of first-class masters, or even heavenly powerhouses, these metal toys that can't keep up with the times can only be killed in seconds.

However, the alloy gate can still be trusted, unless it is the arrival of the heavenly master, otherwise in everyone's imagination, the three-layer thick gate forged with special alloy is impossible to destroy by manpower.

As a matter of common sense, everyone's reasoning is not wrong, but this day is a bad day when all common sense is subverted.

Rushed to the corridor, you can already see the main building gate, is about to rush, suddenly the eyes are bright, a wave of air flow heat fiercely hit, the loud bang, shaking the sky and the earth, in a hurry, everyone can not stand it, all to the upside down to fly, stumbling into a ball.

When he finally stood up straight, the front was bright, and the three-layer alloy gate and the main building gate had been destroyed by a blow, and the door had almost become a broken wall, with white smoke wafting away, and some mechanical stumps could be faintly seen, thinking that it was the group of mechanical soldiers who were destroyed by one blow.

"Investigate ...... What the hell is going on? Which side of the enemy is invading?"

"No...... It can't be a daytime army, is it?"

"If the idiot prince kills him, the probability is a little higher......"

The sudden shock, everyone was nervous, but also had a sense of peace of mind that "what should have come is finally here", and after exchanging a few words with each other, they rushed to the door together.

"Who dares to trespass on the Taiyan Academy?

Being able to break through and destroy the system at the door, everyone originally expected to see a murderous Heavenly Rank Master, or a heavily armed army, due to the melting marks of the destroyed gate, if the person who came was not the top master of the Eastern Family, he might be equipped with extremely sharp Ancient Demon Dao equipment. Who knows, the scene they glimpsed when they went out made them dumbfounded.

"Ah, are so many people coming out to greet you? It's really hard for everyone......"

It has nothing to do with the military, and it doesn't seem to be threatening, just a human girl standing outside the door...... No, although she is a little short in height, the overall proportions make it clear at a glance that she is already a girl, and she is a delicate girl who makes people shine.

With heavy black gloves on both hands, fiery red hair, combed into a long braid and hanging straight down the waist, a light dress of a light green sleeveless vest and light brown shorts, exposing the delicate curves of snow shoulders and pink legs, although it is not sexy and seductive, it can also give full play to the effect of suffocating everyone's breath.

Wearing sunglasses, her expression was a little difficult to distinguish, but when she put one hand on her waist, pursed her lips, raised her chin, and squinted at her, a sense of déjà vu oppression instantly shocked everyone's hearts. It's not annoying, and it's even a little warm, as if I've felt it a long time ago...... For a moment everyone forgot to investigate the rudeness of the comer, and just stared blankly until a few dog barks woke them up.

A mechanical dog circled around the girl's feet, the style was unremarkable, but the degree of agility and realistic behavior surprised the researchers, they had never seen such a spiritual mechanical product.

"If you're here to welcome me, get out of the way now, don't get in the way. The girl said lightly: "By the way, I am not happy to be welcomed by you incompetent wastes." ”

The good feeling when I first saw it, I was angered by this passage, and everyone was just about to have a seizure, and the girl had already walked quickly, it seemed that she was going to forcibly break through the blockade and enter the research institute.

"Girl, don't mess around, if you don't want to get hurt......"

When facing a human being, these researchers can hold a lot of kindness and courtesy, and seeing this little girl's delicate appearance, they also forget the damage she just caused, and subconsciously don't want to hurt her, so when she paced closer, the first one just reached out to push her away.

"Wang!"

The mechanical dog barked suddenly, and everyone was startled, followed by the person who stretched out his hand to let out a cry of pain, and somehow, he fell out. Only then did the crowd become alert and spread out to surround her.

"Hey guys, ...... the hell you"

The words could only be said here, so he grabbed the chest and asked for a point, and fell out. As far as martial arts cultivation is concerned, they can serve as the guards of the Taiyan Academy, they all have a considerable level, and they are more familiar with some superior Bai family magic skills, how do they know that the competition is not helpful at all, and they grabbed and pushed the girl, fell to the ground, and couldn't get up for a long time.

Although the recognition position is quite poor, the girl's technique is extremely ingenious, intentionally or unintentionally, she also plays a role in restraining the Bai family's martial arts, specifically attacking the flaws of everyone, coupled with the internal force that comes from the blow, it is surprisingly strong and strong, and as a result, no one can take her move, and she is all knocked to the ground in an instant.

It is not uncommon to have this result, that day in the Alembat Mountain, the girl had been the sage of the day Huang Taiji transmission of internal force, although not much, but also benefited a lot, and learned the mantra of the Great Day from there, practiced according to the law, quite progressive, although it can not be compared with the heavenly master, but it is also a rare internal force strong person in the earth, and then by Xiaocao to teach the tricks designed for restraining the Bai family martial arts, it is easy, and these guards will be staggered.

There was no injury, but the strong force invaded the meridians, and everyone couldn't get up, so they could only collapse to the ground. When the last opponent is defeated, the girl's lips open slightly, as if she wants to say something, but when she thinks of her role, she says the exact opposite of what she intended.

"It's really disappointing to me, not only is the Ancient Demon Dao a mess, but even the martial arts have been practiced to this virtue, no wonder the Taiyan Academy will be looked down upon, if I don't come in a hurry, you don't know how many ugly things will happen next...... Cappuccino, let's go. ”

The girl turned her head and stepped into the main building, followed by her dog, as if insulting, Cappuccino unceremoniously stepped over the crowd as he crossed the obstacles.
