Chapter 257 256 Silver-White Fear
Chapter 257 256.Silver White Fear
Lendl knelt on one knee, staring at the ground, sweat dripping down his face.
Through the red curtain, the sound of turning pages could be heard from time to time, and Rendel's heart would beat wildly at this time.
Like Lulutis, Rendell was also a member of Tanya's win-over plan. Coming from a poor family, he was naturally devoted to Tanya. Because of this, Rendell was extremely worried at this moment.
Collet and Lendl did a very bad job. They followed Sera, but lost the trace of Sera on the way. After that, Sera was nowhere to be found, wandering around Collet like headless flies. It wasn't until Tanya sent someone to notify him of his return that Rendell was shocked to discover that Sera had returned to the Theocracy.
Got fooled.
Rendell had been kneeling all morning. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Tanya not seeing him. After all, it was his fault.
Inside the curtain, Tanya slowly checked the information coming from various places. After Chihong poured tea for her, her eyes glanced outside the curtain from time to time.
The paper was put down, and Tanya took a sip of sweet tea to dispel the sleepiness that was coming up. She noticed Chihong's gaze and tapped her fingers on the table a few times, which made Chihong immediately turn her head.
"It's almost time. Tell him to work hard next time. It's up to you how to polish it up."
As Chi Hong walked out of the curtain, Lendl immediately raised his head. Because the movement was too large, his stiff body swayed. His body, which had been numb after kneeling for too long, was out of control and almost fell down.
Under the signal from his red eyes, Rendell stood up, supported the wall, and walked out step by step.
After staying away from Tanya's room, Red told Rendell the polished words.
"Your Highness, Princess, understands your failure. After all, it is Sera you want to follow. I know how terrible she is. It is only expected that you failed to complete the task. I made you kneel to show others. After all, failure is fail."
Rendel's lips trembled: "Your Highness..."
If it was well polished, it was obviously very effective. Lendel was so moved that he beat his chest and said that he was willing to die for Tanya. It is estimated that if he is asked to assassinate Tanya's brothers now, Lendel will nod without hesitation.
"Solved?"
When Red returned to the room, Tanya was standing in front of the huge map of Solon behind the desk.
"He was touched."
"Well, your polishing ability has always been very good, but it's a pity that outsiders think you are a cold person." After saying that, Tanya handed the secret report from the Theocracy's messenger to Chihong: "Take a look, and then tell me what you think."
His red eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze moved little by little on the secret report, with more and more confusion on his face.
According to inquiries from Theocratic Emissaries, Sera brought back several strangers when he returned to Theocratic State, and brought them directly to his home.
"Sela, she rarely brings people back to her mansion." Chihong said.
Tanya curled her hair with her fingers: "Yes, she is a person who looks peaceful to everyone, but in fact she has a sense of distance. She is the chosen one by God, but she cannot get along with most people in the Theocracy. , but not completely separated from them, just distant.”
"Like Lulu, she is a character who has no friends and is difficult for others to cooperate with. However, she is smarter than Lulu and harder to control."
Tanya picked up the secret report and read it again. The second half of the secret report described the characteristics of several people in detail.
An ordinary-looking human male.
A woman with horns who looked like an Argonian.
A charming vampire woman.
A white mist that changes shape at any time.
The emissary of the Theocracy who submitted the secret report has already questioned the other companions and has never known that Serra has had contact with these people before. It is certain that they are the people Serra knew in Kolai.
But this doesn't stand up to scrutiny. It's unlikely that Sera would bring someone she just met to her home.
Tanya handed another letter to Red.
"Sela bought a lot of materials in Kolai and shipped them to her home? Does she know how to refine medicine?"
Chihong's reaction was also Tanya's first reaction after seeing the news.
Sera does not know how to refine potions, and a large number of these materials point to the refining of potions. She is not purchasing them for the Theocracy, but using them herself...
What a strange thing.
Tanya, who couldn't figure out the reason, was about to put aside Sera's affairs and examine the rebellion information in the Civita area. A flash of lightning flashed across her mind. In the flash of lightning, an idea gradually amplified and occupied her thoughts.
"Lulutis..."
"Your Highness?"
"Lulutis!" Tanya's voice became firm.
"You mean Sera brought Lulutis back?"
"Yes, Lulutis has returned to Mera. She is now in the Theocracy, in Serra's home!" Tanya did not analyze, but followed her intuition and made a judgment.
Chi Hong murmured: "If Lulutis is really by Sera's side, does that mean she has defected to the Theocracy?"
Tanya grinned softly: "How is that possible? Don't you know Lulutis? She doesn't believe in gods in this world at all, and she has no interest in the mission of the Theocracy. Moreover, she is very stubborn and believes in nothing. There will be no turning back. It would be too difficult for such a person to change his mind about the Theocracy. "
Tanya walked to the balcony, put her hands on the guardrail, and looked in the direction of the Theocracy.
"Sela, you, like me, also want an obedient Lulu...I see, is this why you and I fell out?"
"However, Lulu is a very nostalgic person, and you know this, so you deliberately hid her from me... You are worried that Lulu will come back to me again, right?"
Thinking of this, Tanya stretched comfortably, and then turned to Chihong and told him: "My brother's birthday is the day after tomorrow. Did he send the invitation to Sera?"
Chihong checked the event memo and nodded: "It has been sent, and Sera also responded, saying that she will definitely visit on time."
"Very good, very good." Tanya smiled and clapped her hands, "I am looking forward to this meeting. What will she say to me."
"I can guarantee that Tanya will ask me about you when she goes to Solon this time."
Sera pinched her nose and walked in the basement, waving her hands from time to time, rolling up a breeze, accelerating the dissipation of the choking smell.
Lulu didn't answer at all, but lowered her head and continued to fiddle with the smoking potion.
Lu Yu and Sigrid had checked the ventilation holes in the basement several times, fearing that they might get blocked accidentally. He clearly remembered that they had heard a strange news in Yas, saying that a group of magicians who were doing experiments in the basement smoked themselves to death.
Except for the potion user, the fog demon, who danced in the fog, the rest of the people were skeptical about the potion that was constantly smoking. Even Xu Yu, who lacked common sense, knew that the smoke was not a friendly thing.
"Ahem... Lulu, why don't you come to my house to make it? It doesn't matter if it explodes. The Church is building very fast... Ahem!" Sera said.
Lulu raised her head and glanced at Sera, then continued to mix the potion.
Wrapped in light green mist, the potion made a "puff" sound from time to time, and burst into a short and bright light, dragging Lulu's figure into a twist... No matter from which angle you look at it, Lulu doesn't look like a good person.
"It's good here. If you refine it in your home, the people of the Church will more or less notice something."
Lulu didn't want to meet Tanya. After returning to the Mela Continent, the memories of walking here would come to her mind from time to time. When she responded, she would think of the bits and pieces of her time with Tanya in the past.
She didn't want to give Tanya any chance to explain. Now she already had Lu Yu, Sera, Sigrid, Benlong and the Mist Monster, and getting along with everyone made her more and more understand what friends are like.
The dazzling green light flashed in the container in front of Lulu.
Xu Yu immediately protected Lu Yu, Sera blocked Sigrid behind her, and even the Mist Monster quickly found a corner to hide.
When the light dissipated and the mist dissipated, everyone stretched their necks to look.
Lulu stood there, her pretty face flushed, her hand holding the glass cup trembled constantly, and her eyes were full of shame and anger.
"What's your reaction?"
"Listen to my explanation. This is the normal state of the body..."
"I won't listen. I won't listen. My accident rate is so low. Can't you just trust me..."
The green light rekindled, and Lulu, who was close to the table, immediately opened a magic shield for herself.
After discovering that this was just a normal reaction to the fusion of the potion, Lulu found that everyone was looking at her shield with strange eyes.
It was Sera who gave Lulu a way out. She took the initiative to break the awkwardness and said, "The Church has just received news that the squirrels have suffered two consecutive heavy blows in the Civita area. Two important food cities have been breached one after another. Then the battle between the squirrels and the Solon Vanguard also ended in defeat."
Lulu dealt with the medicine residue and asked Sigrid to take it away.
"The fighting power of the squirrel people in the Civita area has always been low, so this situation is not surprising... Is there any problem?"
"The 100 light cavalrymen who were chasing the remnants of the squirrel people were wiped out."
Lulu was stunned: "They underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, and then fell into an ambush?"
"I thought so at first, but according to the records of the battle on the scene, the opponent of these 100 light cavalrymen seemed to be only one person. This person was a magic warrior. He used ice magic and the squirrel spears he picked up to kill all the light cavalrymen. His method was clean and efficient. The light cavalrymen were cleared out before they realized the seriousness of the problem."
Lu Yu asked: "If it was you two, could you do it?"
Lulu thought for a moment and shook her head: "It depends on the combat experience and personal strength of this group of light cavalrymen."
"It's uneven. There are veterans and immature recruits in the team, but the overall combat power is around level four." Sera said.
"It's not easy for me, but I can do it." Lulu said, "So, this magic warrior is at least a seventh-level person?"
"The race is unknown, but his strength is indeed amazing. There is a very important information. When the cavalry later noticed something strange and rushed over, the magic residue on the scene was very amazing. The dying light cavalry told them that the man did not cast any spells at all, but just whispered the name of the magic and a powerful magic would explode on their bodies in an instant. And... when he appeared, the surroundings were extremely cold, and breathing would hurt."
"After the light cavalry died, Solon's troops indeed found frost-covered leaves and frozen plants nearby. The whole area was chilly."
Lulu's expression gradually became solemn.
"There is no casting action, all magic mobilization is formed instantly, and it is still in the form of words, but it is extremely powerful. The ice attribute magic with a huge range, everyone in the covered area can feel the bone-chilling cold... He also helped the squirrel people?" Lulu murmured, "When did such a magician appear in the Civita area?"
"I thought you knew something, so I came to ask you. Solon's commander was also shocked by this sudden appearance of magician. He was worried that if he continued to pursue, he would fight against high-level magicians, so he temporarily stopped the attack. Now some people think that he who covered the squirrel people's retreat was the mysterious warrior who killed the nobles and Solon's envoy in the Civita area."
The bell in the basement rang, and it was the stupid dragon who was guarding the door to inform them that someone was visiting.
Sera returned to the room and received the secret envoy sent by David, and the news brought by the secret envoy also shocked Sera.
"Has the news been confirmed?"
"It has been confirmed that Solon's magicians in the Civita area have begun to form a group and no longer act alone." The secret envoy said hurriedly.
After sending the emissary away, Sera hurried to the basement and informed Lulu of the emissary's information.
"You said that man killed three fifth-level magicians in an instant?"
"Each magician's heart was pierced by a spear, and the pierced position was covered with frost, and the three magicians died in a kneeling position. Witnesses said that this man was wearing a silver-white metal armor, with a burly figure, like a giant beast, and Solon's sturdy sergeants looked small compared to him."
To be fair, killing a fifth-level magician is really not a difficult task. Lulu and Sera want to attack the fifth-level, which is to choose the right magic and then play it according to their mood.
The key issue here is that this person deliberately put the body in a kneeling position, which is considered to be an admission that he is avenging the squirrel people... But who is he?
Lulu thought about all the strong men related to the squirrel people, and couldn't find a ruthless person who was willing to risk being implicated by Solon and confront the army.
"He is huge and strong. It's so obvious. Can't Solon's army catch up with him?"
"Disappeared in the mist, that's how they described it."
...
...
In the hazy mist, every blade of the silver-white armor was reflecting the light of magic. The spear hidden in the mist swept across, and Solon's scout was hit by a cannonball, flying backwards, and fell heavily on the tree, with blood constantly flowing out of his mouth.
The Solon scout, who knew that his life was coming to an end, stared with scarlet eyes, as if he wanted to know who his enemy was.
The biting cold wind suddenly rose, ruthlessly taking away his remaining vitality. At the last moment of his life, the spear pierced the scout's heart.
"Those who insult Solon must die!" The scout roared with all his strength.
The taller silver-white figure remained silent, then he gently broke the scout's legs, put him in a kneeling position of submission, and inserted the scout's sword into his mouth, twisting and stirring vigorously.
Listening to the sound of horses' hooves approaching, mist rose and enveloped his figure.
The Solon cavalry arrived at the scene, but there was no one, only dead bodies on the ground.
None of the thirteen scouts survived.
And this place is only two mountains away from the Solon Vanguard Camp.
