Lord of War

Two hundred and thirty-two. Gulu is very poor

The sudden black swan castle earthquake incident, after an inexplicable start, also ended in an equally inexplicable situation.

However, few people noticed that there was a pothole suddenly in the whole castle. Of course, no one would take it seriously even if they found it. Many of the damages to the interior of the building cannot be repaired, because this kind of project is no longer a simple repair and maintenance, but can be regarded as renovation and reconstruction.

But the servants and guards in the castle were a little surprised by the situation brought about by the earthquake.

For example, in addition to the irreparable and major loss of the kitchen, another loss is the completely broken desk in the room of Sean, the owner of the Black Swan Castle. Many people are curious, why only the desk in Sean's room was damaged, while everything else remained intact?

In the end, everyone can only blame the poor quality of this desk.

Of course, there are still people who know the truth.

"So, this guy caused the earthquake in the entire castle?" Cecilia looked at the ball of light floating beside Sean in surprise, "Why does it look... a little depressed?"

It was night now, and the desk in Xiao En's room had just been replaced. It was temporarily taken from the old room, so this desk looked a bit worn out. However, looking at the situation, Sean didn't seem to mind this. He was reading a letter sent urgently from Void City. The seal on the wax was Asuna's seal, which indicated that it was a letter from Fortress Tonis. letter.

The letter was received by Cecilia, and it was precisely because of this that she came to Sean's room at this time, so naturally she met Gulu.

"Really?" Sean opened the letter. Hearing Cecilia say this, she raised her head in doubt and glanced at Gulu.

According to the "experiment" in the afternoon, Sean discovered that Gulu is indeed a creature, and it is obviously a creature with a high IQ. A full fork of the template, including Wisdom, Common Sense, Emotions, and more. So it's normal for Sean to clearly feel Gulu's emotions without looking, and even what Gulu wants to express. In fact, Gulu was really depressed at this time. But what Sean couldn't understand was why Cecilia could also feel it. Could it be that the magician's perception is really so sensitive, or is this some kind of bloodline ability unique to Cecilia?

In the blood of the Phoenix, there is indeed an ability to communicate with all monsters and creatures.

But when Sean raised his head and looked at Gulu. He finally understood why even Cecilia knew that Gollum was in the wrong mood.

Although Gulu floating in mid-air at this time looks the same as before, the light emitted is much dimmer than normal, and the surrounding space is obviously a little swaying, just like the face of a normal person The words "I'm so lost" were written on it. So unless he is blind, no one will think that Gulu is very happy when he sees Gulu's appearance.

"What's your attitude?" Sean raised his eyebrows and took out the letter casually.

"Gu... Lu..." Gulu replied weakly. It was an extremely sharp contrast with the energetic appearance in the afternoon.

"Hey, the light is too dark, brighten it up." Sean had already unfolded the letter,

Hear the feeble voice of Gollum. He glanced at Gollum again.

But obviously, Gulu was very dissatisfied with his master, and it began to shake up and down in mid-air—of course, it wasn't really shaking. Instead, it achieves the purpose of shaking by vibrating the space at a high frequency, at least it looks like this guy is shaking-and then makes a gurgling cry. When these voices heard Cecilia's ears, they were naturally noises with completely unknown meanings, but it was obviously not a good thing to see Gulu's attitude so intense.

"What is she talking about?" Cecilia couldn't resist her curiosity after all, and asked.

"It says it's not a lighting device." Sean looked a lot more pleasant when facing Cecilia, but when Sean turned his head to face Gulu again, his face became very impatient, "I see you are in the afternoon Haven’t played enough yet? Why don’t you fly a few more times to see?”

While saying this, Sean also raised his right hand.

Seeing Xiao En's movements, Gulu immediately stopped making those meaningless sounds, and stopped shaking, but desperately emitted a golden light.

At this moment, the brilliance erupting from Gulu's body was like a small sun. In Sean's room, he could even feel the rising high temperature. The room, which was already somewhat sealed because of the closed windows, instantly made Sean feel like he was in a sea of ​​flames. The moisture in the body is losing crazily.

"Are you trying to blind my eyes?" Sean growled a little angrily, "I told you to turn up the light, not to make you emit high temperature, are you trying to be against me? I think you want to To taste what it's like to be buried in a cesspit."

"Gollum! Gollum!"

"Hmph, if you don't want it, give me some self-awareness." Sean curled his lips, even if he looked up, he couldn't see Gulu who looked like a sun at the moment, the high temperature even made the ends of his hair a little burnt, he felt It was as if he was about to melt.

Perhaps the threat of being buried in a cesspit was very effective, Gulu let out a fatal whine, and then re-adjusted the brightness. This time, although the light he emitted was still very strong, it didn't have that dazzling feeling, and it no longer felt like being in a sea of ​​flames, but there was a bit more holy flavor in the light. This strange yet familiar feeling made Sean feel a little puzzled.

Familiar, that's because Sean can be sure that he has definitely experienced it himself, but he has never faced this feeling again after coming to this world, otherwise it is impossible for him not to remember it. And this point is also the reason for the unfamiliarity. Because he can't remember it, Sean thinks that he should have experienced this in the game, and the number of times should not be many, and there is no impressive situation. Otherwise, it will not be unfamiliar.

This illusion is only a momentary thing, and the impression is not deep, which means that this kind of thing is not important. Since even the system directly rated Gulu as an "unknown creature." Sean also thought that he didn't need to pursue the existence of Gulu. Anyway, this guy doesn't seem to be of high value at the moment, so Sean refocused his attention on Asia. This letter from Sina.

The content of the letter is not complicated. It just reminds Sean in a rather cryptic way that the envoys from the Millennium Covenant Empire and the royal family have arrived at Fort Tonis ahead of schedule. They will depart from Fort Tonis about a month later. Arrived in Void City two and a half months later. The letter also specifies. The Millennium Covenant Empire has already known about the verification of the ownership of the Pandaland initiated by the Hastings family of the Kingdom of Dabion. I hope to meet people from other churches, so from the essence of the matter, this operation of the Millennium Covenant Empire is probably a secret operation. Of course, it is not ruled out that the other party has the idea of ​​taking advantage of the fire.

The content of the letter is not long, so Sean read it quickly.

"What did the Marquis say?" Cecilia asked after seeing Xiao En put down the letter.

"People from the Millennium Covenant Empire will arrive in Void City in about two months." For Cecilia, Sean has nothing to hide, and before this incident, Asuna had already talked with Xiao when she visited secretly. En mentioned it, so at this time Sean said it very simply, "Their time was chosen well. It happened to be that we finished the matter of the territorial contract documents."

Hearing this, Cecilia frowned slightly: "They already know about this?"

"Never underestimate the intelligence gathering capabilities of an empire." Sean said in a deep voice, "Judging from Asuna's reminder, it is obvious that the Millennium Covenant Empire is suspected of taking advantage of the fire. It probably wants to take advantage of our loss of territory. I put pressure on you. Forcing me to hand you over, as a price, I can probably obtain an official title and a relatively fertile territory, and it is even possible to become a nobleman of the Millennium Covenant Empire."

Cecilia smiled: "It seems that I am quite valuable."

"Yeah, the standard Bai Fumei." Sean also smiled. "The Millennium Covenant Empire is very scheming, and came to us at the right time. If it wasn't because Asuna reminded me to get the territory contract document, maybe we are really desperate at this time."

Cecilia thought for a while and found that this was really the case.

The current situation in Panda Ling is indeed chaotic.

Because of the previous military mobilization, the Dayi Territory was in a semi-paralyzed state, while the Chirav Territory was closed by a military blockade from the very beginning because it was close to the canyon rift, and all roads were blocked. In a short period of time, it is equivalent to completely losing the possibility of development, and it will also be impossible to develop in the near future because it becomes the frontier of war.

In addition, there are two things that need to be dealt with urgently in the territory now.

The first thing is that Sean occupied the Great Rift Valley. This is one of the important business routes of the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance. With the current strength shown by Sean, it is absolutely impossible for them to let Sean occupy it. I don't have the time and energy to toss with Sean, but Enkos, the abyssal demon, is obviously impossible to be caught, so the wrangling between the major churches and chambers of commerce alliances will end sooner or later, and then naturally they will be able to free up their hands to deal with Sean. . So how to deal with the follow-up matters in the Great Rift Valley, this is what Sean must make a decision as soon as possible.

And the second thing, of course, is to compete with the Hastings family for the right to own the Panda Territory. Because of the intervention of those lunatics from the Peace Association, this matter is even more troublesome than the first matter-at least if Sean really occupies the Great Rift Valley and does not return it, the Chamber of Commerce Alliance can only proceed. Some secret operations are used to compete with Sean, and some kind of agreement will be reached in the end, but the Peace Association is a well-known lunatic across the continent. If they don't leave, then the Peace Society will dare to kill him directly, and even Asuna will definitely not be able to keep Sean.

According to Asuna's previous information, the members of the Peace Association will arrive in the Void City in about a month and a half. Once the assessment results are released, Sean will only have half a month to pack up and leave. And at this time. The people from the Millennium Covenant Empire arrived just in time, and the envoys of the United Kingdom of Ryan put pressure on Sean. As long as he is a normal person who has tasted the sweetness of the lords and nobles, he will never go back to being an unknown ordinary person. , so Sean will definitely hand over Cecilia under pressure and interests. If the people from the Millennium Covenant Empire were more ruthless, put pressure together with the people from the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, and at the same time sent troops from the Millennium Covenant area to the Great Rift Valley area, then Sean would really lose everything. It can even be said that this All the efforts of the past two years have been in vain.

certainly. All of this is based on the fact that the ownership of the Panda Territory does not belong to Xiao En.

It's just a pity that the people of the Millennium Covenant Empire don't know that the contract document of Panda Ling has fallen into Xiao En's hands, so this kind of pressure method is impossible to be effective at all. And, in a strict sense. Sean is not a normal person at all. Even if the territory of Panda Land is lost, Sean will not be able to hand over Cecilia. It's just an excuse to start a war with the Dabiang Kingdom.

However, all the current matters have been properly handled, and the pressure strategy of the Millennium Covenant Empire was impossible to succeed from the very beginning, so Xiao En didn't take it to heart at all. His only concern. That is, when the Millennium Covenant Empire finds that the conspiracy cannot succeed, they will switch to taking Cecilia away by force. If this happens, Sean really can't stop it.

then. After thinking about it carefully, Sean said: "Tomorrow you will go back to the Void City with me, and then you will stay there unless I allow it. Otherwise, you are not allowed to leave the Void City for half a step."

"Why?"

"The Void City is protected by Bess, and you are safe only there." Sean replied.

"Are you afraid that they will take me away with strong means?" Cecilia was also a little surprised.

"Besides don't underestimate the intelligence gathering capabilities of an empire. Don't underestimate their strength either." Sean said calmly, "Believe me, if the bloodline experiment is really reopened in the Millennium Covenant Empire, they will arrest you The idea of ​​going back must be extremely strong, and I will even pay all the price for it.... What I am worried about now is whether Bess can stop those people who have bad intentions, no... I will go to Hongye Town tomorrow to ask Andrew ask."

As long as Cecilia was involved, Sean would always feel flustered, not as calm and wise as before. Although this kind of behavior is indeed a bit funny, every time Cecilia sees Sean like this, she always feels very sweet, so she doesn't want to object, or Cecilia actually enjoys Sean very much. Such tenderness and attention.

"Hey, idiot, the light is dim again, are you being lazy." Sean suddenly raised his head and shouted at Gulu.

Gulu made a somewhat aggrieved sound. Under Xiao En's oppressive power, it had to readjust the level of light it radiated from itself. But in fact, it is not lazy at all, it just feels a little tired.

"Don't treat Gulu like this, I always feel so pitiful for him." Cecilia glanced at Gulu and said sympathetically.

"Gulu!" Gulu floating in mid-air let out a cry at the right time, sounding like he was agreeing with Cecilia's words.

"What else can this idiot do besides being a lighting appliance and a heater?" Sean curled his lips, a little disapprovingly, because after trying for a whole afternoon, Sean didn't find it at all besides being able to serve as lighting and heating. What other value does Gulu have? Even if it is used as a hidden weapon, it is very limited. At least it is obviously ineffective at night, and it will definitely not be effective against those strong men above the sanctuary.

"Gulu Gulu..."

As if arguing for himself, Gulu once again uttered a series of hurried sentences of unknown meaning. Whenever Gulu made such a quick sentence, even though it had a telepathic connection with Sean, Sean still couldn't hear what Gulu was saying. All he had to endure was the double bombardment of his ears and brain. So in this case, what Gulu got in return was a slap from Sean.

"Talk to me!" There was a flash of golden light, and Gulu, who was slapped away by Sean, was already embedded in the wall. This naturally caused another shock in the entire castle, but compared to In the afternoon, the vibration was obviously much weaker this time. It seemed that Gulu had begun to control his strength.

"Sean!" Cecilia's tone had a taste of blame, but she still quickly ran to the wall on the side, reaching out to take Gulu out.

"Don't!" Seeing Cecilia's actions, Sean let out a scream.

Gulu was born with a stance, which would affect the space around Gulu, making it not only able to float in mid-air, but even cause damage to anyone who came into contact with this dimensional stance. In the turbulence of the void. As we all know, the void turbulence is a kind of air flow with its own annihilation property. Anything that comes into contact with this air flow will be completely annihilated in an instant, and it is impossible to leave even a little residue.

The reason Sean was able to make contact with Gulu was because there was a stronger rule protecting him between Gulu and Sean.

But Cecilia didn't have the protection of this kind of rules. If she tried to make contact with Gulu, her entire right hand would be crushed and annihilated by the turbulence of the void in an instant.

However, something unexpected happened at this moment.

Cecilia's right hand did not annihilate directly as imagined, but grabbed Gulu through that layer of space, and watched Cecilia rub Gulu in her hand, her face With the sudden glow, Sean was also a little dazed.

"It's so soft!" Cecilia's performance was like a child who got a new toy, with an unspeakable surprise on her face, "It's softer than cotton candy..."

"This..." Sean blinked.

"Gulu Gulu!" Gulu made a sound similar to humming, and seemed a little complacent.

However, Xiao En could hear the meaning of his words clearly: "You mean, as long as you agree, people other than me can also contact you?"

"Gulu!"

"Hmph." Sean snorted coldly, but he obviously felt relieved.

Gulu was lazily lying in Cecilia's palm, but it ignored Sean, but if Gulu could show his expression, then Sean could see that Gulu was also showing a sense of relief at this time expression. Other people want to get in touch with Gulu, but it is not as simple and easy as Gulu told Sean just now. The moment Cecilia came into contact with Gulu, Gulu forcibly cut off the protection of his position, and then re-edited The adaptability of the stance didn't do Cecilia any harm.

As a creature with a high IQ, and it was reproduced with Sean as a template, Gulu certainly knew the importance of the woman in front of Sean to Sean. If it hurt the magician named Cecilia, Gulu believed that he would not be thrown into the cesspit by then.

PS: I encountered a particularly disgusting thing early in the morning, and almost had a fight with my uncle. To be honest, I always thought that the people around me shouldn't be so wonderful and weird. Now I can be sure that, except for my uncle, the people around me will not be so weird and wonderful. ...I am in a bad mood now, I am in a state of berserk, and I really can't calm down. I originally planned to write this chapter into a big chapter, so let's combine the two chapters into one and update it first. ...let me calm down first.
