Chapter 105: A Conspiracy to Make the World More Lively
The Abyss Demon flapped its wings vigorously and forcefully passed through the clouds. His newly grown flesh wings were still a little sour and numb, which made him have to work a little harder to get used to it.
He had to let himself fly as high as he could, otherwise there would be a possibility of being discovered, after all, the City of Radiance was the capital of the strongest empire in the world, and there were still many great powers in between.
He flew more than ten kilometers away from the city, leaving behind a large area of jungle and rivers. Below was a deserted field, covered with weathered rocks that made it easy to conceal itself, and the demon began to cautiously lower his altitude.
A few yards above the ground, he retracted his wings and landed lightly on the ground. His body was shrouded in a curtain of light formed by magic. The huge, hideous figure slowly shrank and deformed until the shadow behind the light curtain turned into a human form.
The figure stepped out from behind the light curtain. It was an ordinary peasant's attire, thirty-four or five-year-old, plain in appearance and body shape, and it could be said that he would never be found again if he was thrown into the crowd. He suddenly smiled wickedly, and a deadly and dangerous charm suddenly bloomed on the faces of the featureless public.
The human man who had been transformed into the Abyss Demon Refining Demon bowed to a boulder and said with a smile, "Salute to you, Your Excellency. β
A man in a jet-black floor-sweeping robe covering his head and face stepped out from behind the boulder. The shadow behind the hood uttered a deep male voice, "You're late, Belkill. β
"That's because your junior is even more difficult than I imagined."
"He was a disciple of Aurucello, and the only genius I have ever seen in my life. In terms of the speed of progress, whether it is the current King of the Night Sky or the future Nord Empress, even the scheming little fox of the Royal Saint Springs generation, who especially likes to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, is far inferior. Haven't you already experienced that kind of genius? β
"Yes, it's an indescribable experience, and I am so excited!" The Abyss Demon smiled and shrugged his shoulders: "It's a pity for Resenia and Onia, I still like this mother and daughter...... However, witnessing the birth of a genius, they also deserved to die. β
"Yes, the birth of a genius is like the Dawn Knight ......," the black-robed man muttered to himself.
"That sword really reminded me of some terrifying past! But well...... Compared to the great and noble Knight of the Dawn, that child's personality is much more interesting."
"Character determines fate, and I don't want that cute kid to follow his old path, otherwise the world will be too boring." A female voice rang out from the ears of the two. The female voice is very special, a kind of holy voice that blends the charm of enchantment to the extreme and the holy voice of motherhood to the extreme, as if the whole barren field and stone forest are filled with a charming fragrance.
Both the demon and the man in black looked in the direction where the voice sounded. Where, the transparent air gradually became less transparent, and suddenly a mist rose. The mist dissolves into the shape of a human being, and the outlines of clothing and body change from blurry to distinct, and finally revealed.
It was also a man in a black robe, hiding his face behind the shadow of his hood, as if he was able to merge his entire figure with the darkness of the night. In all the novels and games, all the guys who are brewing a conspiracy may be showing people in this uninspired look, which is really uncreative.
"You've arrived, ma'am." The demon bowed to the new woman, looking respectful.
"It's been a long time! Belkier, it's been more than a thousand years, right? You really haven't changed at all. β
"It's one thousand two hundred and forty-five years, dear lady." Belkiel smiled slightly: "Just by hearing your voice, I know that your beauty is still unfading!" ββ¦,
"The torrent of time is not worth mentioning to me at all, and that's one of the reasons why the world makes me boring."
The first man in black seemed to be a little unapologetic about the lady, and he interjected the conversation between the two abruptly in a somewhat rude rhythm: "So far, the YiqiΔ plan has been going smoothly. In conclusion, thank you Madam and Your Excellency Belkir for your assistance. β
"Don't thank me, this is to make this world more lively!" The woman let out an elegant laugh, as if the air was drunk, and you can imagine how the black hood was overwhelmed.
"Well, since Belkiel is fine, I'm relieved. Please keep up the good work, I'll go first. The woman gave a smiling glance at a stone in the distance, but said nothing. Her figure was once again covered by the mist that appeared out of thin air, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
The demon saluted the woman's departure again, and then said to the man in black, "Are you really sure that that prop can achieve the Cheng dΓΉ we wanted?" β
"Isn't it the power that His Excellency Belkill has seen today?"
The demon was noncommittal and let out a businessman-like smirk: "It is indeed a very delicate prop, but it is not enough to impress me. Your Excellency, you should understand that a hopeless realist like me will not place an order until he has seen something greater. β
"You will see, Your Excellency Belkill. And it won't be long. The man in black said in an unwavering tone
Both the demon's human form and the man in black quickly left the scene. After a long while, a sneaky figure cautiously stepped out from behind the big rock.
"That woman, she must have found me, right? It's so far away...... Hey, when did the Society's stealth ability to operate stop working? Your Highness Olivier, what kind of monsters are you asking me to find! Add money! Gotta add money, bastard! β
"Ahh Far away in the City of Radiance, Olivier, who was pacing in the Great Sanctuary, suddenly let out a loud sneeze.
The handsome prince of Virginia took out his incense handkerchief, and even as he was wiping his nose, his movements were so graceful that the nun who led the way was flushed.
"Your Highness Olivier, are you alright?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Olivier took off his handkerchief, and immediately regained his glittering smile in the shape of a prince charming, rich and handsome, who could flash a dozen silk and two and a half dog eyes: "Maybe some beautiful and lonely lady is missing me." β
"There will be many people who miss you, and they must all be the kind of beautiful and gentle beauties." The little nun was a little apprehensive.
"So, may I ask this beautiful and gentle sister nun, have we arrived?"
"Hehe, you can really talk." The little nun paused and opened a side door in the hallway, "Please come in, Your Highness Olivier. β
"Thank you, beautiful girl." Olivier waved his hand gently, and a delicate two-colored rose suddenly appeared in his hand. He slipped the rose into the little nun's hand without saying a word, and then got through the side door.
The little nun's face was flushed with embarrassment, and the roses in her hands were either lost or not, and she was so anxious that she was at a loss.
Olivier, who had just finished flirting with the little nun, was obviously in a very good mood, he entered the room with a smile on his face, and when he saw Artoria and Lu Xi and the others sitting on the opposite side of the table, he was in a better mood, and waved to the two without knowing it: "Hey, my sweetest sister Artoria, and my brotherly best friend Lucy, how are you?" ββ¦,
Lu Xi and Artoria twisted their heads to the side in unison, and at the same time put on an expression that I didn't recognize him.
They were in a small room, about 20 square meters. In addition to Lu Xi and Artoria, there were two samurai in full armor, two priests in silver-white robes, and one Oakland Privy Council official wearing a magnificent regular dress and badge.
Olivier smiled and asked, "Honorable Excellencies, may I take them away?" β
"Of course, the basic questioning is over." The slightly older priest, wearing a bishop-level robe, smiled and said, "The Great Holy Church has officially intervened in this cult conspiracy incident, and perhaps in the future we will have other questions that need the cooperation of His Highness Artoria." So, we hope that in the coming week, please don't go out of the city, okay? β
"This is naturally a reasonable request. It is the duty of every child of the Holy Spirit to cooperate with the Great Sanctuary to destroy the demons, and the piety of the people of Virgia will definitely not lose to Oakland. Olivier smiled, "We won't be going anywhere until the Sun King's birthday celebration is completed." β
The Oakland Privy Council official couldn't help but snort coldly: "There is something else that must be reported." Since neither Her Highness nor His Excellency Berencaster could justify entering our royal hunting grounds, we will soon lodge a formal protest with the Virginia Empire and the Natya Federation. Please do it yourself! β
"That, that ......" Artoria looked up and wanted to say something, but her hand under the table was pulled hard by Lu Xi. She looked at Lu Xi's expressionless face and looked straight ahead, gritted her teeth, and finally hung her head down.
"Okay, you can go through the normal diplomatic process, and the diplomatic disputes that arise as a result will naturally have the appropriate people to deal with." Olivier shrugged and smiled, "So, can we leave now?" β
As if to ease some of the tension, the bishop smiled and said, "You have been free from the beginning, and you are only here to assist in the investigation!" In addition, Her Highness Artoria and Her Excellency Lu Xi thwarted the conspiracy of the Sulfur Fire Cult, exterminated a large number of demons, and protected the citizens of the Radiant City. We will soon send letters of thanks to the embassies of Virginia and the Commonwealth in recognition of your merits. β
"Thank you so much for your generosity." Lu Xi said with a smile, but he couldn't help but scold in his heart.
Just a thank you note? Do you think a "Great Chapel Good Height +1" will satisfy me? Brother has killed so many high-level demons, not to mention giving some equipment and cheats, at least he should give some bounty, right? Tsk, so stingy, no wonder so many people run away to believe in cults.
