Chapter 496: The Holy See's Actions
The New Year has passed.
The image of Alicia's stunning black dress at the Buckle's dinner was photographed and appeared on the front pages of countless newspapers the next day, once again sparking a conversation about black and the power of darkness. If you let the newspaper people make things up and write things that are so fanciful and eye-catching, but have no real meaning, you will not be able to accomplish Alicia's original plan.
But now Lori has a system in her hands that is far more effective than newspapers.
In the holy city of Mitestan, the supreme god Geludran has been very irritable these days.
"Go shut it down!" Gerudran finally crushed the cup in his hand and roared loudly as the big screen in the plaza near the Holy See headquarters, where a statue of a god had been erected, was again a discussion of the dark forces.
Lihua, who was guarding beside him, glanced out of the window: "The square is full of people. β
The implication is that forcibly shutting it down now will cause dissatisfaction among the masses.
"Who cares about the feelings of those ants, do it right away!" Geludran grabbed the napkin in front of him and wiped it casually on his alcohol-stained hands, "It's better for me to destroy all these crystal screens on the entire continent." Damn, they have invented such an evil and crooked thing! We must not allow the reptiles on the ground to develop like this!"
The proportion of the inhabitants of the Western Continent, who are mainly humans, has received education far more than the Protoss imagined, and the major academies that have gathered students together to teach have contributed to this. After being removed from the aura of the mysterious savior on his body. In the eyes of the world, the Protoss has gone from being an inviolable and undesecrated existence that rules all things in heaven and earth to a powerful otherworldly race and a kind and friendly hardcore ally - this is a blow to Geludran, who is ready to use his faith to brainwash all the natives of the Western Continent into loyal slaves.
Although no one, including the original founder of the academy, Master Rez, expected this.
Originally, Geludran was upset by the affairs of the academy. Now that the little queen of the Birea Empire, whose army can threaten the Protoss, has come up with this propaganda system that is quick and convenient, and more importantly, has a very wide coverage, and blatantly contradicts the Protoss on it (because Alicia is defending the little sister who has dark powers), how can the Supreme God not feel mad?
Standing by the window, Lihua Song hesitated for a moment and reminded: "My lord, the people in the square are our believers. It would be better to force the screen off and explain it to them with a reason. β
"Why?" Jeludran suddenly remembered something, lowered his head and muttered for a long time, and finally reached out to the side and snapped his fingers, and then a tiger-backed bear waist with heavy armor made people wonder if the three pairs of wings behind him could support the Protoss warrior who flew into the sky, and his figure appeared from the void.
It was Diego, Jeludran's personal guard: "Your Majesty, did you call me?"
"Diego, how is the setup of the magic circle going?"
Diego slapped the steel plate on his chest and grinned, "Don't worry, Your Majesty." When the builders arranged by Ryan's kid heard that what they were going to build was a dimensional teleportation array leading to the divine realm, they were all fanatical like crazy people. Most of the magic arrays have now been set up. Only a small town called Kalenga remains, which is unfinished. However, it will be completed by early February at the latest. β
Jeludran suddenly showed a very satisfied expression, leaned himself back in the chair and asked leisurely, "So, except for Kalianga's, can the rest of the magic array be activated now?"
"Of course! But then Eden is not in a perfect state. Diego replied with a grin. "The most critical divine realm environment will not be able to be replicated in Eden, and our angelic legions will not receive any blessings. β...,
"It doesn't matter, those two warships can't pose a threat. Jeludran waved his hand indifferently, "Xiao Song, you go and get Ryan, I have something to say to him." Diego, don't worry about the magic array that Karen added, you go and recharge it now, Eden must be ready in three days!"
The two of them quickly left the room, leaving Jeludran alone in his chair and staring at the large crystal screen in the plaza outside the window with resentful eyes.
"I will never allow you lowly grasshoppers to use your cleverness to jump into the palm of your hand!"
ββββββββββββββββββI'm a dividing lineββββββββββββββββββ
January 4th. Alicia came to Kalenga according to her agreement with Long Jiaotian. Here,Little Lori will play an adventurous puzzle game with the sister of the "strongest man in history" and a soft girl who suffers from androphobia, and by the way, under the effect of someone's extremely tragic protagonist aura who specializes in causing all kinds of trouble, she exposes a shocking conspiracy, and then ushers in a variety of miscellaneous wars, boss battles, and does not forget to show off her clothes and kill to death, and finally finally wins, once again proving the truth that "only cute girls can save the world, and let all kinds of muscular men and little white faces hell with it".
But before she can do that, there is something else that Alicia has to deal with.
β...... Why did you come along!?" Little Lori jumped up with a frenzied face, and the silly hair on the top of her head swayed violently, looking like the meter pointer on a goblin machine that was about to explode, "Didn't I want you to stay in Buckle so I could pretend I was there!?"
Sophia opened the fan and covered her mouth and smiled elegantly: "Ahhhhhhh β
Angel next to her had a serious expression on her face: "Your Majesty, you don't think I'll let you run around again, do you?"
Ilya stretched out her index finger and scratched her face and lowered her head and said, "Well, I'm worried that you're not safe alone." β
Mao'er looked around curiously: "Woo, this is Vaqisi's hometown." β
It looks like he's not listening to others.
Seeing this, Alicia couldn't help but cover her forehead and sweat for a while and said, "OK." I understand. You're actually a bunch of troublemakers who are bored and like to have nothing to do. In that case, I won't stop you, anyway, it's just digging a tunnel, and there's no way there will be monsters. β
The group quickly left the train station, led by Elysia, who was familiar with the terrain of Kalenga. Twenty minutes later, he arrived at the door of Vacis's house.
The low brick houses were piled with thatch on top, and a little half-chopped firewood was scattered in front of the door. There are also several animal skins hanging under the eaves, which do not look rich, but they seem very peaceful and warm.
Alicia walked up to the wooden door and patted her gently, "Varcis, are you home?"
It wasn't Vaqis who opened the door. It's the brother of the soft girl that little Lori once met, Versa.γ The Orion boy couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the group of strangers outside the door, but he quickly recognized Alicia and was immediately petrified on the spot.
"What's the matter, brother, who's out there?" said Varges, curiously poking her head out from behind Versa. Wrapped in a very shabby apron, he seemed to be busy with something, "Ah, Alicia, and everyone. You're here so soon. Brother, don't be stunned, please come in and sit down. β
Vilsa let a few people into the house in a daze, and then finally came back to his senses and grabbed Vasis and desperately lowered his voice and yelled at her: "I know that you and Her Majesty are classmates, but why did she come to you on purpose!? And since you know that they are coming, you should have told me and your mother in advance! Now that you are so prepared, you let me entertain Your Majesty with something!?"
"Don't bother, Versa. Alicia took it upon herself to lead the group to sit down around the old wooden table. As he pulled the tea set from his bracelet, he said, "I have it with me." β
The boy whose name Elicia remembered was flattered for a while, but he was soon sent by his own sister as an errand messenger to find Long Jiaotian.
"This is the shovel you want. Alicia took out a specially exchanged sapper shovel and handed it to Vakis, "I promise that even the most advanced dwarven forge master will burst into tears when he sees it." Anyway, have you noticed anything unusual around the magic circle these days?"
"Nope. Vargeth shook her head in confusion, "I just faintly felt some strange and dangerous aura in the magic array. I've never felt this way before, so I don't know what that means. β
"But it's certainly not going to be a good thing. Sophia nodded her fan to her lips and muttered, "According to the Holy See, these magic arrays are the plane teleportation arrays of the Protoss. How could a mere teleportation array make people feel dangerous?"
Alicia raised her hand and thought about it for a long time, and then suddenly said something that stunned everyone: "Now, Vacis. Can you show me your final grade and the teacher's comments?"
β...... Now isn't the time to play the cram conference, is it?" Sophia said speechlessly, looking at little Lori.
Vakis didn't care, and quickly took out two forms from her bedroom and handed them to Alicia, smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not an unsightly achievement anyway." β
[Elemental Affinity: Fire B, Water A-, Wind B+, Earth C-, Light D, Dark E+; Mental Power Growth: B+; Spell Comprehension: B; Spell Mastery: A+; Actual Cast: A+; Rating: Level 2 Water Mage.] I see, the quality and comprehension are average, but the actual operation is excellent. Is this the so-called heaven rewarding hard work? Let's take a look at Tutor Chrissy's comments...... Uh, this, what is this!?]
Alicia had just a stunned look on her face. The door was pushed open by Long Jiaotian, who looked nervous. Everyone suddenly looked at her strangely, and little Lori had to put down the form in her hand.
Long Jiaotian strode to the table, took a cup of black tea, poured it down, and then exhaled hotly: "Alicia, it's not good! This morning I received a notice from the Holy See headquarters that they intend to declare you, Imrith, and all the groups and things that spread news and knowledge together heretical, and are ready to launch a crusade in the next few days! They instructed me to use Imrith's dark power to quietly spread rumors that the Harris family is controlled by demons in the town, hoping to disturb the people's hearts. I guess churches in other regions have received the same instructions. β
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Sophia slapped her hand on the table hard, and said indignantly: "This is definitely the most shameless slander I have ever seen! Even if it is to forcibly seize the power of my father and control the whole country, I will let the group of people in the Holy See not be able to eat and walk around!"
"Finally exposed your true nature and wanted to do it? Protoss. Alicia stretched out her hand and pressed it twice to calm everyone down, "Don't get excited, Sophia, it's only counterproductive for you to do this. Let the Holy See spray feces casually, the other party is just a bunch of clowns, and they can't afford to jump stupidly with them. It is clear that the purpose of the Protoss' arrival this time is not to contain the dark Ones as we hoped, but to turn us into their servants and slavesβotherwise there would be no need for them to target our educational institutions and propaganda facilities. Hawkers, I was so coincidental that I was once again pushed to the forefront by the situation. I can't hide if I want to. Senior Sister Anqi, it looks like I'm going to trouble you to go back first. β...,
Angel then asked eagerly, "What about you, are you still not going to go back to preside over the overall situation!?"
"Believe me, there's a very critical question here that I have to figure out personally. Alicia stood up and patted the young knight's arm and said, "And there is no way that the Holy See will really launch a so-called holy war against me." Let's not talk about how many circles the other party can instigate. I don't believe that without the support of the Protoss, they would have the audacity to face my army!"
Hearing this, Sophia pinched the bridge of her nose curiously and said, "Alicia, do you mean that the Protoss will not come forward directly?"
"At least not for the time being. Little Lori quickly cleaned up the tea set on the table and replied casually, "The Holy See here has just declared me a heretic, and the Protoss over there can't wait to send a large army to invade the Birea Empire, what do you think?"
β...... Are the Protoss looking for an excuse to start a war?" Sophia suddenly realized, and then couldn't help but raise her forehead with her hand, "But Alicia, are you sure you plan to fight against the entire Protoss? I mean, that, you know. β
[Are you worried that I, the titular goddess, will suddenly turn against the other party? This seems to be a good choice. γ
The fan in Sophia's hand flew to the door of Lori's head.
"I said don't just read minds. Alicia covered her forehead and blinked her big tear-filled eyes with a look of grievance, "Ann la, the kind of situation you are worried about is not possible." Senior Sister Anqi, after you go back, let the whole army enter a state of readiness and prepare for war. No matter what tricks the Protoss makes, we have a trump card in our hands that can deal with it easily, so we don't need to be afraid of those birdmen. Long Jiaotian, what about the tunnels you dug before? Take me there now. β
Could it be that there is really something strange about those magic arrays? Angel no longer insisted, and hurriedly walked out after saluting the little Lori. His resolute appearance was so startled that Versa couldn't help but hurriedly hide to the side.
"Varges, come too. "As the crowd got up and prepared to leave. Little Lori suddenly pointed at Varges and said, suddenly causing the girl to slide to the ground, "You must not be missing from this investigation." β
"What, can't you not go?" said the poor braided girl, curled up weakly and cautiously as she looked at Ilya and muttered as if he were going to pounce on himself if he were a little louder.
"It's useless to sell cute. What's more, what you sell is not standard at all. And as the only person who can sense the abnormality, do you want us to be blind if you don't go to the scene?" said Alicia, turning her head to look at Elijah. "In the name of the Queen of the Empire, I order you, Sao Nian, tie that girl with a rope and carry it on your shoulders and go with you!"
"What do you mean by carrying it away, you should actually be a human trafficker, right?" Sophia almost overturned the table in front of her, walked quickly to little Lori, pinched her face, and rubbed it vigorously, "Do you dare to be more undisciplined with your orders!?Like having Ilya push Vakiss down in front of all of us?"
Little Lori hurriedly broke free before her face was pinched red: "If I really say that, it won't cause an incident, but just let Ilya tie up Vakis, he will have a ninety percent chance of suddenly falling down in the middle of the road and triggering a knockdown event! Sophia, sometimes it's not good to be too straightforward." β
"Don't use the experience of playing Galgame in this kind of place, heyββ!" Sophia grabbed the fan she threw out before and swiped the little Lori's head fiercely, and looked at the soft girl next to her and said, "Varcis, don't be nervous, Alysia, she's just joking...... Didn't you, faint?"
Looking at the girl who was slumped on the chair and looking up to the sky and spitting out white foam and white souls, everyone was embarrassed for a while.
"I'm sorry I was at fault. Seeing this, Alicia hurriedly raised her hand in surrender and said, "Sister Mamei, please come out and carry Vacis on your back." She had to go to the scene. β
Mao'er carefully helped Ba Aami carry the unconscious Varkisi on her back, and wondered: "Wooh, why does Varkisi have to go? Does she have any special abilities?"
β...... Mao'er, you actually step on the key point occasionally. Little Lori stared at the inexplicable natural stupidity with an embarrassed face.
Ba Asami straightened up with Varkisi on her back and corrected: "Why 'step', it should be 'guess', right?"
"Do you think that the real natural nerds will 'guess' the key point of the incident? It is more in line with their attributes to inadvertently 'step' on it like a landmine?"
