As the saying goes, don't be impressed for three days.

But Duanmu Huai, this is really impressive.

He remembered that Weber was a young man who was not yet 20 years old, and he had the face of a social animal at this time.........

"What did you let him do?"

Duanmu Huai looked at the man in front of him carefully, to be honest, no matter how he looked at it, it was completely different from the one in his memory.

"I remember this guy was a little guy at the beginning, and now he's so tall? Is this a hormone or a facelift? ”

"I don't have plastic surgery, Inquisitor........."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's ridicule, Weber also stood up and looked at him with a helpless expression.

"I am......... Hey, it's just that after so many years, it's become like this. ”

"Tut-tut, looking at your life these days, if you shave your hair and go out on the street to make it feel like you have just been released from prison, isn't it a good place for the monarch?"

"Hey..............."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Weber really sighed......... It was a really bad day, although it was said that with the support of the court, the Ermelo family did not owe money, and because of the support for other magicians everywhere, plus the classroom opened by Medea at the beginning, it brought a lot of contacts to the Ermelo family, and the strength of Leenys, Sakura and Fiore blossomed, which can be regarded as a considerable reliance on the Ermelo family.

But in the same way, good food can also attract flies, in fact, inside the clock tower, there are many people who covet the wealth and power of the Ermelo family, and in the past, these people could only shrink. But after the Inquisition left, the men began to sneak around and do things in secret, and the transfer of the Ermelo family from archaeology to modern magic was part of their temptation.

In addition, many families have also asked for marriage with Rhaenys, Sakura, and Fiore. After all, Sakura has a very rare imaginary attribute, and she is also a disciple of Medea. The great magician family naturally hopes to be able to add this bloodline to their own family. Fiore's ability to match a first-class instructor in séance and ergonomics has also made many families jealous.

If Duanmu Huai is here, it will be solved with a straight roll, but Weber ——— Ermelo II don't have the ability to do this, not to mention that it is not those middle and lower class families who are staring at Ermero, but the families who are also the twelve monarchs, then the problem is even greater.

So he had to deal with those old foxes, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows became more and more.

Not only that, but within the Ermelo faction, there has always been a force opposing him.

When the Inquisition came, Medea used to give public lectures, and because of this, there has always been a voice within the Ermelo sect that the magic of the gods is the most powerful. And when Ermelo II took over, he was thrown into the modern magic department, which made them think it was a shame.

Originally, magicians were a kind of existence that pursued the past, and because of Medea's existence, many people in the Ermelo family felt that this made the Ermelo family more noble. Although there is no practical benefit, at least it is said that it is a shame. It's like a knighthood bestowed by the queen, even if it's a viscount, isn't that also separated from the status of a commoner?

After being driven to the modern magic department, for this group, it was suddenly from a high nobleman to a lowly groom, so they vented their anger on Ermelo II, believing that his lack of effort led to this result.

Although it was said that with the support of Leenys and the consent of Duanmu Huai, it was impossible for them to remove Ermelo II from power, but giving him a little trouble was enough to make the pressure on this unlucky guy even heavier.

There is another point, that is, under the meaning of Duanmu Huai, the Ermelo family sponsored the research of many magicians, some of which have achieved results, and some of them have been directly played, and there is no way to come to Ermelo for help, and as a monarch, Ermelo II can only bite the bullet.

Although he is not strong in his own right, he is quite talented in this area, and after a few times, the clock tower also knows that Ermelo II is a person who is good at solving magic problems, so if there is any trouble, he will come to him.

Of course, this unlucky guy didn't want to go, but he didn't want to go, Duanmu Huai brought Medea and contributed to the clock tower, which determined the status of the monarch. Ermelo II does not have the strength of Duanmu Huai, and can only help by solving such a problem to improve the status of the Ermelo family.

Fortunately, there are Leenies, Sakura and Fiore, but they have also helped him a lot——— after all, in terms of combat effectiveness, he is really poor.

Take this Holy Grail War as an example, he originally wanted to participate, but because of some personal matters, he finally had to choose to give up.

And now that Duanmu Huai is back, Ermelo II can be regarded as relieved, so that the burden on his body ...............

"But it seems that since you are doing a good job, then keep trying."

However, Duanmu Huai's next sentence directly sent Ermelo II from the heaven that was about to be liberated to hell, and he stared at Duanmu Huai with wide eyes, just like an office worker who could go home to enjoy the holiday immediately after working overtime, and suddenly heard his boss say that the vacation was canceled.

Oh, and there's no overtime pay yet.

Purely unpaid overtime.

"Questions?"

Duanmu Huai glanced at Ermelo II, who was silent for a moment.

"Aren't you going to come back and succeed as monarch?"

"At the moment, I haven't done what I need to do, but I've brought the people of the Inquisition this time."

Duanmu Huai said as he looked at An and Gu Leiya and the others beside him.

"They will stay here for the time being, and Ann will make the next decision on my behalf, Ann, you know what I mean, the Ermelo family has joined the Inquisition, and you need to make sure who can participate."

"Understood, Mr. Knight, I'll leave that to me."

Ann nodded, looking at Lyenys and the others in front of her confidently, although she was going to face the monarch of the clock tower next, but for Ann, who was the princess of Manalia, it was just the rank of a nobleman. Of course, the reason why Duanmu Huai did this is because this timeline is getting closer and closer to the Chaldean timeline.

The current Chaldeans are out of the original timeline, so they have escaped the burning of human reason. This also means that Chaldea can also change in the future time, and it can even be said that what Duanmu Huai has to do next is to complete the construction work of Chaldea as soon as possible, recruit staff, and then let Olga Marie be the director————— as long as these conditions are met, then Chaldea will be like a hanging fish in the next moment, "colluding" with this past, and then form a new and complete timeline.

In other words, when the Chaldea will be able to return to the normal timeline depends entirely on when this past Chaldea is completed.

Once the Chaldea at this point in time is completed and Olga Marie serves as the director, then the timeline will immediately shift to ——— recruiting experimenters——— the Lingzi shuttle experiment begins——— the experiment explosion causes the Chaldea to be destroyed, and Duanmu Huai and the others go to the special point F——— and come back and are isolated from the world.

In this way, the cause and effect are all linked. If it's fast, it shouldn't take more than 1 year.

There's one more problem, though.

That's who is behind it.

Only by solving it will the future Chaldea be able to avoid the burning of human reason and the destruction of the world.

"Remember, the clock tower is just like that, those monarchs will not be your opponents, with the help of Gurea and Firin, the strength of the Ermeiro family in the clock tower is absolute, you can discuss the rest with Leenys, but as for the specific method, you must follow my requirements. Chaldean questions, you can go to Matthew to talk to........."

After all, Ann is a genius of magic, so Duanmu Huai explained to her before, requiring her to build the entire Chaldea exactly like the future, which is like building blocks, and every part must fit in order to be inserted and connected together. Once there is something wrong, then the past and the future cannot be connected.

"I understand, Mr. Knight, leave it to me."

"I'll leave it to you."

Faced with An's confident answer, Duanmu Huai only nodded, after all......... If you are good at magic and understand politics, and you can only understand the style of the Inquisition.

As for Duanmu locust......... After saying goodbye to Ann and the others, he reconnected with Dr. Roman through Matthew.

However, the situation of the last peculiar point was really unexpected by Duanmu Huai.

"You mean......... Future? ”

"That's right."

Dr. Roman looked very solemn and nodded vigorously.

"This time, the Chaldea detection peculiarity is not in the past, but in the future, and it is a future that is almost cut off from magic."

"What does it mean to be almost cut off from magic?"

"To put it simply, there seems to be no magic at all in that world, and for a long time, our Chaldean spirit transfer needs to obtain data through magic for location teleportation. But that future does not seem to have enough to provide for our spiritual sons......... To put it simply, we can't be transported to that future through the Reiko, which seems to be closer to the technologically advanced world from the current observations. ”

"So you mean ........."

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai frowned, and Roman also nodded.

"That's right, the other party is obviously aware of what we are doing, and for now, he seems to judge that magic alone cannot stop us, so he chooses the future——— the past is fixed, and the future is ambiguous, but judging from what the other party has done, it seems that he intends to influence the past by fixing one of the futures!"

"Tut-tut, this timeline is really messed up."

Duanmu Huai also shook his head helplessly, Doctor Roman's meaning was very clear, the other party found that the past could not win them, so he ran to the future, trying to fix and create a future where magic could not be used, once such a future is determined, then it is the biggest crisis.

"The transfer of the spirit child cannot be realized, that is to say, the future magician is equivalent to being abolished, right?"

“…………… Yes, we're sorry, but we can't find a way to get to that anomaly at this time. ”

"It's okay, let me figure it out."

Duanmu Huai thought for a moment, nodded, then closed his eyes, and soon connected to Audrey in the Inquisition through psychic communication.

"Audrey, are you there?"

"Yes, master, what do you command?"

Even if time and space are separated, the sense between the soul card and the holder will not be severed.

"Go find Lumielle."

Duanmu Huai silently gave an order to Audrey.

"I have something to ask her to help with."
