Steel steam and flame

"Another absolute strongman has appeared in the Saint Dorag Empire?" As one of the highest armed forces in the Theocracy, Stant was very interested in this. There are too few such people in the three continents. There are many things that perhaps only they will know. To a certain extent, it is difficult for people like them to become enemies, and some things require people of the same level to cooperate and explore each other.

The bishop shook his head: "He didn't talk about this in detail. He just said that while dealing with the polar sea vortex, we should also be more prepared for the Saint Dorag Empire. We can't let it go anymore, otherwise everyone may end up... Suffering losses in unexpected places. It is necessary to invest more troops in the Far Sea Common Country. Recently, some new generations in the Theocracy will also introduce corresponding reward policies for them to encourage them to go to the Later Prime Minister Continent to train themselves. It can also be regarded as preliminary preparations for the war that will occur on that continent in the near future."

"But regarding the arrangement of the person who caused this turbulence in the polar sea, the Pope did not tell me in detail. He seemed to have other plans, and might leave it to the Vatican's headquarters staff to investigate and deal with it. I guessed the Pope's tone and mood at the time, and it should be It’s going to be a big move.”

"How long has the polar sea vortex dragged down the Theocracy? Even if the Pope can tolerate it, those people who can fly will not simply ignore it. They will definitely be under pressure from the Elders in the next moment. And when it comes to the Elders, we are the most It's better not to ask." Virginia interrupted at this time, and he looked at Stat, "But Stan, you can ask the Pope personally later. Neither we nor the bishop have the qualifications to know, but you do. You still know these things. It’s good, but it won’t do you any good if you’re excluded.”

Stan nodded, his expression becoming more thoughtful. After completing the surgical assimilation, he became an existence separated from human beings more than ten years ago. Compared with the Pope of the Holy See, he is about a hundred years younger in age. Many things deep in the Theocracy have not yet been taken over, and because the current Pope is still young, the delivery of power is also extremely slow. Coming to the Extreme Sea Whirlpool to permanently guard it may be the plan of the Elder Council to prevent friction between the two highest armed forces in the Theocracy.

There was nothing to lose, and there was great value in both Stant and the current Pope. But it was precisely because of Stant's appearance that a short-term balance was achieved within the Theocracy, and it was at that time that the voice of the Elders became louder.

Coupled with the newly discovered saints, their value has also dropped relatively a bit.

No matter where they are, people like them do not seem to receive corresponding treatment because of their special characteristics. Instead, because of their excessive power, they will become the primary threat in the minds of many people, especially in the eyes of a group of people in power.

"Foreign trade?" Macquarie sat at the table with a receiver in his hand. For a moment, he couldn't think clearly about the matter that his captain suddenly raised.

"It should be like this. I don't know much about this aspect, but as long as it is connected to the Theocracy on the Left Prime Minister's Continent, it will be fine. We need to change our identity to do these things. It would be better if we can expand it as soon as possible."

"But leader, you know that in this period, such a thing is not easy to do. All the major families are secretly pooling their resources to prepare for what may happen in the next few years. The former patriarch Tovi Luster led I have taken away a lot of things within the Qilaandi family, and if I want to expand immediately, it may not be so easy to do without finding an equal ally."

"Just go and handle it. Treat him as an order, a very important order. As for other matters, when I come back, they will naturally not dare to say anything. It has always been like this." There was an air in his tone, and Macquarie felt that he It sounded unusual.

"It's okay to look for allies. According to you, if they are willing to become allies with us during this period." The girl's voice continued, "In short, we need to have our own forces on the Theocratic side, and we must not Just be weak. As for the rest, you can decide on your own."

Macquarie thought for a while and then agreed.

"Commander, how long will it take for you to return from the Endless Sea? Listen to the narratives on the left and right, what happened there?"

"It's a good thing for me. Due to emergencies, I may return to the empire a little earlier. You should write down all the recent events in a small notebook, and I will deal with it with you when I return."

",,,," Macquarie was speechless for a moment. After a while, he nodded in agreement with a strange tone.

"I'll do that."

After disconnecting, he looked in the other direction of the Kiraandi family, where the two leaders of the Rose and the Knights of the Rose now lived. After thinking for a moment, he turned on the communicator again.

"It's rare for you to take the initiative to contact me." On the other side was Li Suman with a novel voice, "Do you still have this free time recently?"

"I heard from you who contacted me not long ago that the Holy Emperor intends to form an intermittent alliance with the leader?"

"I'm not sure, but the Holy Emperor has changed his mind. With the energy of an ordinary person, even I admire his brain and vision, but facing the surgeon, there is really no advantage. Just the few in the Holy Emperor's Hall In terms of the Holy Father’s attitude, I don’t think we have any conflict of interest.”

"Soon I will send you an agreement through a secret frequency. Please let the Holy Emperor see it. That is what the leader means. If it is acceptable, I think we are allies, old friends."

"I promise I won't let you down." Lisuman smiled softly, "Is your leader coming back?" Lisuman thought of this immediately. Magri's behavior at this time was a bit abnormal in her eyes. There must be additional reasons.

"No, you still need to wait for a while. But if you do the corresponding things, you will pay the corresponding price. I remember a few things. Maybe I will trouble you to help me add some in the near future."

"Then can you say thank you in advance?" Li Suman's laughter was exaggerated, and then it disappeared and turned into a chilly look. "After that, I will think about who and what happened to me recently. Not happy anymore.”

The fire was rekindled, and Cassia sat aside, sorting through the chaotic memories in her head.

After waking up from his dream, he immediately looked at the time. The passage of time is different. The time of more than ten days in the dream is only close to four days in reality. It was only the mental and physical energy that was consumed too much.

I don't know what happened to my body after I entered the dream state. But there is still a large amount of blood condensing on the place where he was lying, indicating that he will not be easy here. After waking up, my body was tired and my rapid breathing slowed down, but my heartbeat still kept at an abnormal speed.

What changes that red crystal brought to herself, Cassia can't say now. Just as far as the blood is concerned, whether the concentration has increased again remains to be checked later, but there have indeed been some changes. It is as viscous as liquid metal, like toxic mercury, and its color simply turns into dark red. It is not known whether it is toxic or not. Cassia remembers that her ability to resist biological poisons has always been strong.

"Is this where the name red mercury comes from?" Cassia remembered that there was a period in the first stage of the operation called the red mercury stage, when the blood began to gather more energy to supply the body's consumption of high-intensity activities. Now, it is the blood that has truly become this state. The increase in heartbeat is probably to provide the power that allows such viscous blood to flow in the blood vessels at a normal flow rate.

Additional changes occur in several senses, most notably hearing. In the past, after the rejection reaction and the giant whale method stimulated all the dragon tissues in the body to become active, invisible sounds could be felt from time to time. It seems to be a kind of tactile replacement. The sound can only be perceived through the ears or skin vibrations. Sometimes it will appear in the eyes in the form of ripples on the lake surface.

Now, this ability has become stronger. Just like after experiencing the penetrating irradiation of hazy white light, I can use my skin to "capture" the flow of subtle winds - the sound has also become an actual substance at this time.

In other words, the sounds have always existed, but Cassia can really see them now.
