Chapter 662: Engaged to Audrey in advance

During the time when Crane had just used the "Founder" to fight Amon, he had finally recovered from Amon's whispering.

Fortunately, he often experienced the impact of whispering and became somewhat "resistant", otherwise he would probably have to hover on the edge of losing control for a while just now.

The "Founder" temporarily blocked Amon, giving Klein a chance to enter the hole of history, as long as he entered the hole of history, it would be difficult for even Amon himself to catch him.

But as soon as he stepped forward with one foot, a hand suddenly reached out from the hole in history and pushed Klein.

Crane took a step back in some surprise, and quickly reached into the void with his right hand to grab out, and as his right hand was withdrawn, a lady wearing a simple robe and bare feet appeared beside him, it was none other than Lady Arianna.

The lady's eyes were confused for a moment, then immediately brightened, and she briefly glanced at the situation around her, and waved her hand at Crane, who disappeared into the dark wilderness as if he had been erased.

At this time, the hand of the historical aperture came out of the illusion, and it was an Amon clone, and Amon's body had "stolen" part of the historical pores, which allowed the clone to appear in the historical pores for a short time.

Lady Arianna waved her hand at the doppelganger of Amon, and the ground under the doppelganger's feet suddenly collapsed, causing him to fall to the ground, and he would be very unlucky for the rest of the time, and even his combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced.

And Klein, who entered a state of secrecy, was about to enter the hole of history again, but suddenly appeared in the real world again.

It turned out that three more high-level clones of Amon arrived, and they "stole" towards the hidden space together, and finally succeeded in stealing Crane from the hidden world and returning to the real world.

Crane used the "Flame Jump" to escape, and at the same time reached into the void again and pulled out, but because he was constantly being stolen by Amon's clones, he "jumped" several times and failed to run far.

Thankfully, Miss Arianna had temporarily blocked the three Amon clones, otherwise Crane's thoughts would have been stolen from him again.

Klein pulled two or three times, and finally pulled the indifferent Mr. Azik out of the hole in history.

He asked the "Archon of Death" to stop Amon's doppelgangers, and Klein himself tried to enter the hole of history again.

At this time, the "founder" who was using the seal to fight with Amon pointed at Klein, and he "magnified" the "luck" in Crane.

This made several Amon clones fail to "steal" Klein's ideas, and Crane was very lucky to take advantage of this opportunity and successfully entered the hole in history.

Because of the "Founder's" support to Klein, he didn't have time to stop Amun's theft of the "Bracelet of Creation", and this time Amon was on guard, he just "stole" the seal.

And the target of the contamination of the aura of the "Disordered Country" on the seal was "wrong", and it did not appear on Amon's body, but on a monster in the dark.

Amon looked at the "Creation Bracelet" in his hand and said with a smile: "I'll just say it's familiar, this is the seal of the Solomon family, I'll return it to them for you." ”

Hobart was also prepared for such a situation, and he immediately used the abilities of "associating", "exploiting" and "tampering" one after another! The negative effects of the Rebirth Band immediately become significant.

First strengthened the association with the Genesis Bracelet, and then "exploited" its negative effects.

Amon was about to put away the bracelet when the space in front of him suddenly became illusory, and a quaint full-length mirror came out of the spirit world, and in the dark and unlit "God's Forsaken Land", this mirror actually showed a starry sky.

Amon furrowed his eyebrows, he didn't dare to look directly at the starry sky, and quickly waved his hand towards the mirror, which was temporarily facing elsewhere.

Immediately after, the space in front of Amon became illusory again, and out of it came a monster that looked like an elephant, this monster flicked its long nose, and in the blink of an eye, it had already entangled Amon.

The sudden appearance of these two monsters is due to one of the negative effects of the Genesis Bracelet, but the "Creator" "tampered" with the negative effect of summoning a monster every 6 hours to summon one every 6 seconds.

And the level of the summoned monsters is not low, at least dare to take the initiative to attack Amon.

Amun, who was entangled in his nose, immediately realized that the spirituality in his body was rapidly disappearing, and the size of the "elephant" that had sucked the spirituality was rapidly growing, and soon became as big as a small hill.

This made Amon a little surprised: "You, you are actually stealing my spirit?" ”

So He waved his hand at the "elephant" like a hill, and the spirit in the "elephant" instantly dried up, and it became as big as a small hill and as big as a normal elephant, and it was as thin as wood.

Amon had just broken free from the "elephant's" trunk, and felt that his life force was being absorbed by the bracelet, which was also the negative effect of the bracelet.

Under the "use" and "tampering" of the "founder", this negative effect has also become a means of attacking Amon.

Amon exploited the loophole in an attempt to divert the life-absorbing target, but he soon discovered that the Make-Bracelet was absorbing life in a wide range.

Especially after Klein entered the hole of history and Arianna also left, the absorption of life force has become very large, and the life force of his doppelgangers is also rapidly draining.

At the same time, in addition to Amun's body, the clones have undergone certain mutations.

Amon tried several times to hide the Genesis Bracelet or steal all the negative effects, but since the Creator was still the owner of the Genesis Bracelet, it was easy to "connect" it again.

And to start "exploiting" and "magnifying" its negative effects again, even Amon can't be wary of.

On the contrary, Amon's advantage is disappearing little by little.

Seeing that the space in front of him had become illusory again, and the third monster was about to be summoned, Amon simply threw away the bracelet: "Forget it, let's return it to Solomon's descendants." ”

The "Founder" behind the black visor breathed a sigh of relief, if Amon didn't give up the Genesis Bracelet, he would be ready to give up the seal.

As soon as the "Founder" stretched out his hand, the Genesis bracelet returned to his wrist again, and the image of the "Creator" disappeared.

Amon glanced at the chaotic battlefield and suddenly smiled, "'Fool' and 'Creator' are both interesting. ”

He looked cheerful, without the slightest frustration of planned failure.

……

Hobert returns to the "Land of Disorder" and puts down the extraordinary traits and seals first, and he "retracts" his arms under his armpits with a somewhat painful expression.

After recovering a little, Hobert began to carefully inspect the Genesis Bracelet and the Old Day Box, and sure enough, he found a hidden parasitic "Time Worm" in the Genesis Bracelet.

This "parasite" is very ingenious, making good use of the Creation Bracelet to help the "Time Worm" block the purification of the "Disordered Country", which is easy to ignore.

Hobert even seemed to see the bracelet and helped Amon open the sacrificial door and let Amon enter the "Land of Disorder".

However, Hobert also knew that this conjecture was almost untrue, because Amon did not need the "country of disorder", and everything in the "country of disorder" was a huge pollution to him.

But if Hobert wears the Genesis bracelet in the real world, he will definitely be parasitized by this "Time Worm", and then the Amon clones will definitely appear in the shortest possible time and take themselves away.

At the moment, Hobert used the power of the "State of Disorder" to pull out the "Time Worm", and after killing it, he planned not to use the Genesis Bracelet in the real world unless he needed the power of the bracelet very much in the future, so as not to have any other arrangements in it.

Immediately after Hobert thought back to the battle just now, he felt a little thrilling, if he hadn't destroyed Amon's plan as soon as he came up, and later Amon "stole" the Genesis Bracelet, then it would be difficult for the "founder" to stop Amon head-on.

Even if Hobert takes advantage of the extraordinary characteristics of the "State of Disorder" or the "Prince of Order", he still only has the empty shelf of the King of Angels.

Of course, this empty shelf also played a big role, if it was an ordinary angel, it would not be able to resist Amon's "theft" at all, with this empty shelf, Hobert at least did not have to worry about his ideas being stolen.

In addition, some of the abilities used by Hobert, such as "distortion", "tampering" and other abilities, have the level of Sequence 1, if it wasn't for Amun's hand to steal the Genesis bracelet, Hobert only had a few abilities that could attack him.

This battle gave Hobert a substantial understanding of the high-end combat power of this world, which made him firm in his belief: run away when you meet the king of angels before sequence 1, and run away when you encounter the true god before accommodating uniqueness!

Thinking of this, Hobert took a deep breath, fortunately, he was about to be promoted to Sequence 2.

When he becomes an angel, he has the ability to temporarily control the uniqueness of the path of the "Black Emperor", and his first task is to seize the uniqueness as soon as possible.

Coming out of the "land of disorder", Hobert looked outside, it was already dark, and he was somewhat tired from the battle just now, so he fell asleep on the bed, and waited until after eight o'clock in the morning to check out and leave.

The streets were still thick with fog, and the figures and carriages in the distance looked very hazy.

Hobert was about to find a corner to take advantage of the "trip" to leave, when suddenly the quiet of the street was broken by the voice of the newsboy: "Outside! Extra! The Republic of Intis declares war on the Kingdom of Rune! ”

Hobart smiled slightly: it's time to come.

He called the newsboy to stop, but no matter how much he searched, he couldn't find a copper penny in his wallet, so he simply gave the newsboy a 2 sΓΌle note: "Don't look for it." ”

The newsboy said happily: "Thank you, sir! ”

Hobert smiled slightly, took the newspaper and went to a no-man's corner, using the "travel" to return to the study of the Duke's Palace.

It was only when he arrived here that Hobert sat down at his desk, spread out the newspaper and began to read.

While reading the newspaper, Hobert estimated the current strength of the Kingdom of Rune on the Western Front, even if a large number of troops were transferred to the east before, the troops on the Western Front should still be able to temporarily maintain the western defense line, after all, the Kingdom of Rune has been operating on the Western Front for hundreds of years.

But after a month or two, it's hard to say, once the Central Plateau in Rune is lost, Intis can easily attack the undefended Tuckwell Plains.

At that time, the main grain producing area of the Kingdom of Rune will most likely fall in a short time.

While Hobart was pondering the current situation in the Northern Continent, Dophes pushed open the door and said, "Grand Duke, you have finally returned.

"Grand Duke Christine came to you yesterday afternoon, but unfortunately you weren't at the Duke's Court at that time."

Hobert was slightly stunned: "What is my father looking for me for?" ”

He got up and said, "Help me prepare the carriage, and I'll go to my father's mansion." ”

Although it is possible to use the ability to "distort" space, it is too sudden, and it would seem rude if it is not urgent.

Arriving at Christine's mansion, father and son meet in the living room.

As soon as she sat down, Christine got straight to the point: "I met with Earl Hall at a ball yesterday noon, and we talked alone for a while, and Earl Hall hopes that you and Audrey will be engaged this month. ”

Hobert was slightly stunned: "This is too fast, right?" ”

Generally speaking, it takes more than half a year for the aristocracy to embody the aristocracy's reserve from the announcement of the "love affair" to the engagement.

Some will even be separated by two or three years if they want to investigate further, and at this time, only about two or three months have passed since Hobart and Audrey "announced their relationship".

But soon, Hobart realized: "It seems that Count Hall got the news early yesterday morning that Intis was going to declare war on Rune. ”

Intis declared war on Rune, and it was only a matter of time before the Kingdom of Fenerport declared war on the Kingdom of Rune.

On the side of the Kingdom of Rune, because the king had just died violently, the morale of the soldiers and the people was low, and there was a high probability of defeat in the blows of the other three kingdoms.

So some nobles were already looking for a way out for themselves, and Count Hall obviously intended to complete the binding between Hobart and the Duchy of South Bairan as soon as possible.

In this way, even if Beckland is in danger, their family can still rely on Hobert and continue to live a noble life in the Southern Continent.

Hobert thought for a moment: "No problem, you can book the specific engagement date." ”

Christine smiled, "I'll go talk to Earl Hall in a moment, well, tomorrow night we'll have a ball to announce the specific date of engagement." ”

He paused and said, "Although the time is a little tight, I think the nobles should be able to understand. ”

Hober nodded, and then said, "Since there is a ball tomorrow, I will try to be promoted the day after tomorrow, and I will invite you to be there to avoid anyone making trouble." ”

Christine was a little surprised: "So soon, Ling, are you ready?" ”

As a good friend of Rex, he certainly knows what promotion to Sequence 2 means to Hobert.

Hobart smiled somewhat helplessly: "Get ready." ”

He knew that at this time, Eris must also be looking for an opportunity to be promoted as soon as possible, so as to find and snatch the uniqueness.

Christine took a deep breath and nodded, "I'll definitely be there then." ”

Leaving Christine, Hobart returns to his study and asks the courier to deliver a letter to his mother, Eply, telling her about his promotion.

More than twenty minutes after the letter was delivered, Epli arrived at the Duke's Mansion in Beckland, led by Alan, the butler of the South Colson Lord's Mansion.

She was very worried, and as soon as they met, she asked, "Son, are you really ready?" ”

Hobert invited Eply to sit down and closed the door to the study before talking to her about his plans.

After hearing this plan, Epli was a little surprised, and she sighed, "You have more resources than your father was able to mobilize back then. ”

The probability of success of this plan is indeed not small.

"Well," said Hobert somewhat embarrassedly at the end of the conversation, "Mother, I may be engaged again in the near future." ”

Epli glanced at her son and asked, "Which young lady did you deceive again?" ”

"Liar? What a scam? Hobart smiled helplessly: "Why do you say 'again'?" ”

……

Christine and Earl Hall are busy with the engagement ball, while Hobart prepares for promotion.

Christine and Epally were invited to be there to prevent the demigod-level enemies of the Tamara family from causing trouble.

He then asked for the help of two angels, Beverly and Raymond, to drive away Tamara and Pedi when the time came.

(Hobert doesn't know that Pedi has been killed by Eris.) οΌ‰

With the power to protect his promotion, Hobert sacrificed the "blasphemy card" of the "wrong" path to Mr. Fool.

In fact, the "founder" has just helped the "fool's favorite" Klein get out of danger, and for the sake of the principle of equal exchange, Hobert doesn't need to sacrifice anything, and the "fool" also needs to help him once to be fair.

But both Hobart and the "Fool" know that the "Fool" can only help Hobart if the "Fool" gets the "wrong" card.

So the two of them had a tacit understanding, one sacrificed, the other accepted, and neither mentioned that the "founder" had just helped Klein.

Hobert waited for a long time, and seeing that Klein did not refuse to help him, he knew that the experiment of the "Fool" was relatively smooth, and he would definitely be able to help him complete the "grafting" of the bloodline.

Only then did Hobert take out the seal that was against the "witch spirit" and prayed to the goddess of the night for the power of "secret".

As for the preparation for the promotion ceremony, Hobert also thinks that it is very solid.

The promotion ceremony of Sequence 2 is to cause a chaos involving all classes in a large city, and use the unique and unprecedented new order proposed by the promoter to quell the chaos, and drink the magic potion in the confusion and helplessness that this chaos brings to people, and in the unwillingness of people to accept the new order.

At first, he also planned to complete the corresponding ritual by setting off an electric revolution.

But the previous struggle with the gas industry made Hobart realize that there was no need to wait for the electric revolution to be completely over, and it had been fully achieved, and beyond the requirements of the ceremony.

The current Beckland gentlemen, from the aristocracy to the middle class to the poor, have fully embraced electric lighting, and the use of electric lighting throughout Beckland has become the mainstream.

The gas industry was ruthlessly harvested by Hobert, who was in such a hurry to sell gas stoves in order to disgust Duke Negan and other representatives of interest groups before the gas industry.

Their unwillingness and chagrin will definitely become the key to Hobert's promotion ceremony.

Everything is ready, and now it's all left to shape the body of Eris to attract Trenthorst.

Because he had already obtained a trace of spirituality belonging to Eris, Hobart planned to pray for strength from Mother Earth God on the day of his promotion, and report to him about his promotion that day.

If the Earth Mother God is interested, she may be able to watch the promotion process, and for Hobert, that gaze may become a guarantee for himself.

After making all the preparations, Hobert relaxed for a long time, adjusted his condition, and then went to the ball at Christine's mansion.

The ball was still the opening dance between Hobert and Audrey, not very high-profile, but handsome and beautiful enough two people dancing on the dance floor and talking intimately.

Audrey looked at Hobert: "You seem to have something on your mind." ”

Hobert was slightly stunned: "Is it so obvious?" ”

Audrey raised her chin slightly: "I'm a 'Dream Walker' now!" ”

Since becoming Sequence 5, Audrey's observation skills have increased, and she can detect some of Hobert's mental activity by capturing some of his expressions and body movements.

Hobert had no choice but to say, "Tomorrow I will face a test, and although I have done a lot of preparation, I am still a little worried. ”

Audrey was slightly stunned, and then said somewhat angrily: "What test?" You're only telling me now! ”

Hobert reached out and pinched the bridge of Audrey's delicate nose and smiled: "I didn't tell you before, first so as not to worry you, and secondly because it was a secret." ”

This intimate action of Hobert made many aristocratic gentlemen suddenly lose their temper, and they tried not to look in the direction of the stage.

In fact, Hobert didn't tell Audrey and Furth before, mainly because they couldn't help and would worry them.

Audrey was really guided by Hobert's words, thinking that there was something secret involved.

So instead of asking, she asked, "How can I help you?" ”

Hobert smiled, "I've got all the preparations. ”

Audrey bowed her head slowly, understanding what Hobart meant by that she couldn't help.

This made Audrey a little frustrated.

Although she didn't show it, Hobert probably guessed what she was thinking: "Actually, you've been helping me stabilize my state." ”

Audrey was slightly stunned: "Why didn't I notice it?" ”

Then she asked, "How did I help you stabilize your condition?" ”

"Love." Hobart smiled, "It's the love we have for each other, Audrey."

"I think after you become a demigod, this love will definitely help you stabilize your state."

Audrey was a little embarrassed: "I didn't expect the relationship between extraordinary people to have such an effect." ”

At this time, the music ended, the first dance was finished, and the two people saluted the guests, and the scene once again resounded with warm applause.

Christine duly announced that Hobert and Audrey would be engaged on November 28, which really sparked a discussion among the nobles, because the news was indeed a bit sudden.

But there are also extenuating circumstances, after all, this is a time of war.

Then Hobart and Audrey walked off the stage and chatted with the people who came to the ball, which was a necessary part of the ball, and before participating in the ball initiated by others, Hobart could still wander on the edge of the ball, and there was no need to socialize with other nobles.

Today is different, Hobert is one of the protagonists at the ball, and he doesn't want to socialize and has to socialize.

Unlike the previous ball where the romance was announced, the nobles barely lost their temper and came to Hobart to chat.

It took a while for Hobart to react, this group of nobles were talking to themselves about the civil war in the Duchy of South Bairan, and their idea was very obvious, they wanted to use this matter to fight Hobert!

So Hobert smiled and said, "It seems to me that the civil war will soon be over." ”
