Overturned Tower

The Relief Society is more worthy of his devotion than the Church; the words of the Ultramarines are more worthy of his obedience than the Twelve Saints.

And his behavior of questioning the director of Amirus for the sake of outsiders is undoubtedly an act of "betrayal" within Mechanical Angel.Most people cannot understand this heavy price, but this has indeed touched the bottom line of the angels—it is a more radical move than rebelling against the church, and it is basically equivalent to denying the sanctity of the Pope.

It can even be said that when he did not submit the meeting application through the church channel, he went directly to Director Amirus...

It can be considered that ignorance has betrayed the angels - such actions are no different from intending to assassinate the Pope.

The pain in his heart was beyond A Zhan's comprehension.

The reason why he didn't wait for the Paradise Bird and didn't notify the horn, and just did this kind of thing alone... On the one hand, it was to avoid fighting with these two people; betray.No matter which side they are on, it makes ignorance unacceptable.

——It is enough that I am the only one who bears the guilt.

From this perspective, perhaps I have already joined the Tower of Babel.

Now that the crime I bear is equivalent to assassinating the Pope... Then, if the result on Russell's side is bad, should I really take advantage of the situation and assassinate Amirus?

Late at night.

Wuming, who swam silently to the door of Director Amirus's house like a pitch-black snake, fell into his final thoughts.

And just as he stretched out his hand, intending to knock on the door.

Suddenly, a warm hand touched his shoulder behind him.

Wuming was startled suddenly, because he didn't notice the approach of the other party at all—looking back, he found that it was a tall and plump woman with a beauty like the sun.

The woman showed a cheerful and friendly smile, and asked carelessly, "What are you doing here, Wuming?"

"...Secretary Sai Lun."

Wuming immediately recognized the identity of the other party - the identity is only lower than the Pope's permanent clerk, the highest authority within the Cyber ​​Church.

The moment he intended to assassinate Director Amirus, he appeared behind him.

What this means is self-evident.

Sure enough, my actions and intentions have been completely exposed.Sure enough, Ah Zhan is being monitored by the board of directors at all times...

When Wuming bowed his head and saluted, he felt the bitterness at the corner of his mouth and the fear deep in his heart.

but……

As the business gradually emerged, another decision in his heart became clearer.

"I'm here... to ask Director Amyrus something important."

Ignorant and neither humble nor overbearing replied.

"As it happens, so am I."

Chairman Sai Lun nodded cheerfully: "Then let's go together."

After all, she directly opened the door of Amirus' room without knocking, and walked in first.

Wuming was silent for a while, then slowly but firmly swam in.

Chapter 11 The Return of Kübler

Although Chairman Sai Lun directly pushed the door in, Amirus didn't seem to be surprised by this.

This thin old man was only wearing thin white clothes at the moment.Only at this time did Wuming finally see that Amirus's hunchbacked body under the white clothes was filled with streamlined muscles.

"Oh, you two..."

The old man greeted him slowly: "What can you do?"

Amyrus was short in stature, and seemed to reach only Saren's chest.

But Sai Lun just smiled cheerfully: "I can't come to you if I have nothing to do?"

Amirus first welcomed the two to the tea room, brewed a cup of green tea for each of them, sighed, and sat across from each other like a real old man.

"You are not such an idler."

The old man had a gentle attitude: "Why don't you just tell us, if you have something to tell us."

"It's not a big deal."

Sai Lun said nonchalantly: "Even if [Kubler] is coming back, the others are similar."

Hearing this—or rather, hearing this name, Amirus finally felt a little moved.

The old man's always squinting eyes suddenly opened, Wuming finally saw the old man's clear eyes like a child.

He stared at Sai Lun in astonishment, and even froze the hand that was stretched out to the teacup.

Kübler...

Wuming on the side didn't know who could have shocked the name elf so much, but he still secretly remembered the name.

"……what."

After being silent for a long time, Amirus let out a meaningless sigh: "Is it because of the incident with Miss Dailan?"

Sai Lun nodded: "There is a part of the reason. But it is mainly because of the influence of 'Russell' his father..."

Wuming was startled when he heard Sai Lun mention Russell's name.

He wanted to be silent, to reduce his sense of existence.But for some reason, at this moment, the two elves looked at him at the same time.

After a brief silence, Amirus spoke first.

"Mr. Wuming, you came to visit me late at night... Is there something important?"

Wuming's heart tightened.

He knew that these words were actually tantamount to chasing someone away—that is, if you have something to say, you should say it quickly, and then you should leave as soon as you finish.

But what he wanted to ask was not suitable for Chairman Sai Lun to hear.

Originally, he wanted to wait for Chairman Sai Lun to leave before consulting Director Amirus alone.

Originally, he wanted to know whether Russell was not dead and had quietly returned.But the supreme ruler of Happy Island is here, just asking this topic may harm Russell.

Maybe Russell himself had cheated the Tianen Group by feigning death, but because he asked such a question, it happened that the Big Seven raised their vigilance and stepped up their search efforts.But if at this time, it's inappropriate for him not to say anything... then Sai Lun will also be vigilant.

After all, Sai Lun is also the clerk of the Cyber ​​Church.There is nothing that Amirus must know, but she cannot know—whether it is Happy Island, Mechanical Angel or the Church.

Wuming kept his face sullen and said nothing, cold sweat slowly streaming down from his temples.

"Hehehe..."

Sai Lun couldn't help laughing out loud.

The plump, tall beauty, at this time, let out a laugh that didn't match her beautiful appearance, like wiping dishes.

"Look how scared you are..."

Sai Lun replied with a smile: "You want to ask Russell. Don't worry, he is indeed fine."

"..."

Hearing this, Wuming didn't dare to move, not even to blink.

"Or, do you want to ask the emperor something?"

Sai Lun seemed to be able to read minds, and accurately guessed the thoughts of ignorance, and gave the answer readily: "If you want to ask whether the emperor's spiritual power is related to Amirus - the answer is correct."

"Strictly speaking, the emperor has not awakened his spiritual power."

Amirus on the side corrected: "He just tried a new version of the technology. Can the key chip of the psychic weapon be implanted into the brain, can it directly replace the outer shell of the psychic weapon and exert the sealed psychic power better?" Strong performance. Because it is made of the corpse of the 'demon' and inspired by the 'God's Falling Device', I named this technology 'Holy Spirit Center'."

……what's the situation?

How is this going?

The ignorant mind is in turmoil.

Why does it seem that the attitude of these name elves and Russell is not bad?They even cooperated with the emperor, allowing him to try out the latest technology... However, they did launch a sniper attack on Dai Lan, and Happy Island will indeed fall into chaos...

If it is said that the positions of these name-bearing elves are also opposed to each other... that's not right, Sai Lun is the chairman of the Tianen Group and the second in command of the Cyber ​​Church.

Under what circumstances did she need to let outsiders like Russell and the emperor do something to completely destroy her situation?

...I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out at all.

But Saron and Amirus have already answered his question - even if he hasn't asked this question directly, he has no reason to stay here.

Before going out, he turned his head a little unwillingly.

Before he could open his mouth, Sai Lun replied half a step ahead as if predicting the future: "I am not in a cooperative relationship with Russell, but Amyrus is. He is on the side of your relief society."

"you……"

"This is not mind reading in the traditional sense, and I won't predict the future. It's just that I can simply guess what you want to say."

"This……"

"This ability is not limited to you, and has nothing to do with mechanical angels. It's just that before you try to say anything, before you intend to do anything, you leave a mark in the sea of ​​group subconscious, and all I read is that mark .”

"I……"

"Russell may not be back for a while, at least not in public. He has other missions - vital."

Whenever Wuming wanted to speak, Sai Lun gave the answer half a step ahead.

Wuming kept a straight face and moved his mouth, as if he was chewing air.His snake tail was shaking uneasily, and the tip of the tail patted the ground anxiously.

This time Wuming didn't even think about how he should respond, Sai Lun said leisurely: "Just do what you want, and I won't help you.

"Mankind must unite by its own will, look up to the sky by its own dignity, and break the shackles by its own determination and perseverance, in order to be respected—and to be worthy of the future."

The tall elf with long platinum wavy hair like a cloak and a statue-like deep and beautiful appearance said something with some incomprehensible meaning.

But ignorance will never regard it as empty words, but after carefully writing down every word, he slowly nodded.

He respectfully wanted to bend down and bow his head to salute the two.

Sai Lun just stretched out a finger.

As the light flashed, Wuming felt that all the minor ailments all over his body had disappeared, as if his life span had been extended a lot—but his waist could not be bent down for some reason.

"Just respect," she said with a gentle motherly smile on her face, like a holy statue erected in Tian'en Park, "no need to be humble."

"……Yes."

Wuming was silent for a while, and answered again.

He finally left Amirus' house this time.

Before he had gone far, he looked back in amazement and confusion.

original……

Secretary Saron, is he such a warm person?

The two elves watched him go away.

Amirus asked, "Why didn't you tell him that you are Russell?"

"Because this is an assessment."

"Sai Lun" sighed deeply: "Or it can also be said to be a trial."

Chapter 12 Blowing Up the Mother Tree System

— Kübler.

This name belongs to the giant dragon who ruled the Happy Island in name—and also Sai Lun's comrade-in-arms.

What He rules is the Happy Island, not the "Tianen Group".The power possessed by the seven giants is only the power granted by the dragon.

Being able to give means being able to take back.

The giant dragon does have such confidence... The energy supply, network, and computing of the entire Happy Island all come from Kübler's "Dragon Heart"—or in scientific terms, it is called the "Intelligent Core".

From this perspective, there is no such thing as a "return" for the dragon.Because they never really left.

Those eternally running factories in the lower city are His blood vessels; the network spreading in the upper city is His trembling nerves.

It was not long ago that Russell found out that the dragon had been watching him...or in other words, the "elvish language" used by the elves to communicate with the dragon was not the only way for the dragon to obtain external information.When the giant dragon named "Maria" was completely killed by the sheath, the remaining six had already fully awakened.

But also beyond Russell's expectations... Kübler's temper was better than he had imagined.
