The Dean Has Arrived

The magic lamp burst into orange light, and then it was scattered by the crystal cover outside, spreading a touch of warmth and light throughout the room.

The decoration of the room is very luxurious, valuable sculptures and paintings can be seen everywhere, and it looks particularly delicate under the orange light of the magic lamp, and the wide floor is covered with high-level beasts (subjugation level 13). ) the red carpet woven with hair clipped from his body, in addition to the old mahogany furniture, there is also a four-poster double velvet bed that doesn't matter even if you do somersaults on it.

However, such luxury is just an ordinary room in the Catherine Hotel.

Sharanlia was sitting on the big soft bed, carelessly playing with a small black dagger in her hand.

Although not long ago, she lived in a high-end suite with Cage, who was her subordinate in name, but after experiencing a period of wandering, she is already very satisfied with the current environment.

That Cage somehow left her alone and disappeared. In the girl's mind, that guy should have rushed back to the cliff of the West Continent.

After all, there are not many people in this city who can threaten Cage. If there is a real fight, the movement will definitely not make the whole city so peaceful. Nothing happened, which means that Cage has nothing to do with the city. It is right for people to conflict.

"He's a guy that even my sister is optimistic about, so you shouldn't have to worry about it."

The girl leaned back, her upper body fell into the quilt with a puff, her posture suddenly changed from sitting to lying down, and her blue hair was messily scattered on the bed, but she didn't care. Squinting his eyes, the whole person enjoyed the feeling of falling into the big soft bed.

Being able to live in this kind of place again and have delicious food to eat is all thanks to that uncle.

As soon as the image of Xi Wei appeared in Sharanlia's mind, a sweet smile couldn't help showing on her face.

Although it was a bit strange, and I always suffered a little because of his unconstrained ideas, but he should be a good person.

That's when she started to look forward to the afternoon's schedule. A voice similar to hers, but with a much lower pitch suddenly rang in her mind.

"Could it be that you have some feelings for that human being?"

Sharanlia frowned and looked at the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror beside the bed. The 'self' in the mirror is also looking at her, but what is surprising is that the pupils of Saranlia in the mirror are not almond-colored. It's weird golden vertical pupils like some kind of beast.

This feeling of being stared at by myself in the mirror is not good, but Saranlia seemed to have gotten used to it, and just responded indifferently: "What stupid things are you talking about as soon as you wake up, Jin."

"It's you who are stupid, my dear sister." The shadow in the mirror that Saranlia called 'Golden' giggled, which made Saranlia who didn't know why very upset, but she didn't When Sharanlia returned her words, the other party continued: "Humans are nothing more than food to us, even the lowest animals will not be in heat with their own food, my dear sister. Good to remember that."

"This has nothing to do with you!" Saranlia stared at herself in the mirror.

"No, of course it has something to do with me." Jin was not frightened by Saranlia at all, and still said with a smile: "Elder sister's task was assigned to the two of us, and now the dagger, one of the seven magic tools, has been obtained. Naturally, I can also get rid of the current bondage."

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Saranlia asked warily.

"Magical tools have their own unique effects. The effect of the dagger is to extract the soul from the body of the stabbed." Jin said slowly: "If you don't have any feelings for that human being, then just use this Kill him with the dagger, and create a makeshift container for your brother me."

"No, he is my benefactor!" Saranlia flatly rejected it.

"Is the reason why you deny this proposal really just because he is your benefactor?" An inexplicable look flashed in Jin's eyes, and he asked with an evil smile: "Or, you have already liked..."

"Shut up!"

I don't know if I was poked at a sore spot. Just because she didn't like Jin's words, Sharanlia's pupils suddenly turned blood red, and she looked at herself with golden pupils in the mirror, and the tense air instantly flooded this spacious room.

In the end, Jin in the mirror clicked his tongue, closed his eyes, and when the reflection opened his eyes again, everything had returned to its original state, and the reflection became a reflection again.

Sharanlia stared at the reflection and was silent for a long time. Finally, she sighed: "What an annoying guy."

Then the girl stood up, planning to put the dagger in her hand and hide it again.

Although compared to humans, she is still highly resistant to the erosive effects of magic equipment, but holding it for a long time will also have a bad impact on the body and mind. Just as she was putting the dagger back into the box, the girl's eyes stopped on a small box next to the drawer.

It contained a silver cross necklace. Although Sharanlia had a deep hatred for the cross because of her blood, but when faced with the cross-shaped necklace that Xi Wei gave her, she was reluctant to throw it away, so she had to put it there in the end.

At this time, when she saw the cross necklace, she couldn't help but think of the person who gave it to her...

——Golovito? Luo Lan Chamber of Commerce Reception Room——

"Ah-choo!" Xi Wei sneezed loudly, then sniffled, closed the book in his hand, and said in a low voice, "This is the third time today, is anyone cursing me? "

The book he was reading was titled "Changeable Ether? Shaping Volume". This book came from the Box of Akasha. Xi Wei used the free right to get this book once a week. After all, this time is better than this book. Neither are of much value.

"...Who would want to make his creaking hole fart?" At that time, Xi Wei looked at "The Art of Tricky", one of the candidates, let your creaking hole fart! ". I couldn't help being embarrassed, and finally chose the title of "Changeable Ether? Shaping Volume" which seemed the most normal.

Although "Changeable Ether? Shaping Volume" is not a magic book that can directly learn magic, there is indeed a magic hidden in it.

Second-ring arcane magic, etheric shaping.

Ether Shaping is not a very advanced magic. To put it simply, it is to manipulate the ether flow in the air to form various shapes. As long as it is well mastered, even beginner magicians can play ether shaping with two hands—it is only estimated They can't shape anything.

Because he was promoted to an intermediate magician. Now Xi Wei can learn the magic of the second ring just by reading it through - of course, it needs to be fully practiced and used to fully master it.

Based on this, Xi Wei also asked Franken to record all the second-level magic it knew after the experiment, and show it to him when he returned...

"Sorry for keeping you waiting." Just as Xi Wei was about to continue reading to deepen his understanding of ether shaping, Elena, who he had been waiting for, finally walked into the room.

It is different from the glamorous look of the past. Xi Wei always felt that the current Alina looked a bit exhausted, listless, with sleepiness written all over her face.

"What's the matter?" Xi Wei asked her strangely: "Did your chamber of commerce be so busy preparing for that competition?"

"Of course it's not just that." Elena sat on the chair, looking a little depressed: "The Celestial Sphere Competition and negotiating for you are also one of the reasons, but the most important thing is not this."

"What's that? Has your chamber of commerce received any other big orders?" Xi Wei asked curiously. He didn't realize until the question came out. It seemed that it was not a good question to ask, as it was suspected of spying on the privacy of other chambers of commerce.

Fortunately, Alina, who was depressed, didn't notice, she just shook her head and explained to Xi Wei: "It's a cult."

"What?" Xi Wei didn't react immediately because he heard the unexpected words. Subconsciously said: "Cult? ***** or Almighty God?"

"What are you talking about?" Elena asked casually, but seeing that Xi Wei didn't seem to intend to answer her, she continued: "Actually, strange religions have suddenly appeared in the Eastern Plains recently. They claim to be ' The Church of Necessary Evil'."

After listening to Alina's explanation, Xi Wei got a little understanding of this recently raised church.

Although the name doesn't rhyme at all. Neither the Holy See nor the Holy See sounded imposing, but the Church of Necessary Evil quickly attracted the attention of the King's Council.

The reason is simple, these sneaky guys in black cloaks are inciting common people and serfs to rebel everywhere.

Their teachings are not the same as the Holy See's greatness, greatness, justice, justice, fairness and openness, but they put forward the concept of the necessary evil of human nature.

In their view, everyone has greed, selfishness, irritability, possessiveness and other bad feelings in their hearts.

Compared with the infinite exaggeration of the beauty of human beings like the Holy See. They believe that only a person who has both good and bad aspects can be regarded as a complete person.

At the same time, they also used this as a slogan to try to incite the low-level people to rebel.

In the beginning, they only encouraged some remote areas to be oppressed, and even became serfs who had hoped to survive. Later, based on these scattered areas, the Church of Necessary Evil began to radiate in all directions.

"You planted with your own sweat and hard work, and you only received generous gifts from the Mother of the Earth. Why do you want to unconditionally give all of them to those nobles who have nothing to do and only know how to eat, drink and play all day long?"

"The same human race, why can some people sit high in the castle, enjoy the reverence of thousands of people, and live a rich and prosperous life by exploitation, while you have to work hard, but in winter, you still can only Are you shivering under the thin quilt?"

"Why do you have to endure hunger, cold and raging diseases when those fat nobles are busy lingering in the singing and dancing banquets, so that even your own children can only desperately struggle on the line of life? , will disappear from your dry and callused fingers if you are not careful?"

"Why……"

"Why……"

"Why……"

"Now is the time! For those nobles who oppress and bully us at will, the good side of human nature is no longer effective! We need necessary evil to punish them!"

For a long time, class conflicts have accumulated between commoners and nobles.

Not all of them though. But most of the nobles oppressed the commoners, and most of the commoners hated the nobles.

It's just that there are monsters and orcs as threats outside the human beings, and the king's council and army under the turmoil inside, plus the Qiyao Mage Association standing aside, all these contradictions have been backlogged and have not been able to break out.

What the Church of Necessary Evil has done this time is to add fuel to these conflicts that have been backlogged for generations. Let it all explode!

But it is a pity that this world is not the earth, and the rebellion of the civilians is doomed to fail. Before hot weapons or their equivalent. These ordinary people are far from the opponents of the nobles.

You must know that apart from the army, the number of magicians in the two camps is also very different. When the magicians who can be regarded as mobile war fortresses start to show their power, no matter how many people in the civilian camp are more than the noble camp. No matter how brave they are, it is useless, just like ants can kill elephants, but they can never threaten flying dragons. The level difference between the two is too great.

"But although the common people and the church can't cause too much trouble to the King's Council, it has made the checkpoints in many countries and cities much stricter. Not only us, many chambers of commerce have suffered heavy losses because of this. "

Alina sighed, and explained the root cause of her appearance: "Almost all the people from our chamber of commerce have gone out to clear the link, and I just came back from a nearby city."

"Well, it's okay. I don't mind waiting a little longer. Besides, to be honest, no one with a bit of knowledge will know the outcome of this matter." Xi Wei touched his chin, he always felt that the whole thing was revealed Strange smell: "People who can create something like the Church of Necessary Evil should not be ignorant... Then why didn't they secretly accumulate strength, but instead made this matter so big?"

The Qiyao Mage Association has an energy not inferior to the King's Council, except for those sent by the royal family to mix seniority. Most magicians are not interested in politics, so last week's Goddess of Truth did not report on this matter, and Xi Wei, who has been living in Sky Island, did not know about it until now.

However, judging from the increasing scale of this incident, maybe this week's Goddess of Truth will have relevant reports about the Church of Necessary Evil.

"Who knows, maybe the people behind it are just planning to bring the Church of Necessary Evil to the fore, and maybe through a series of events, it will have great advertising benefits." Alina shrugged her shoulders. Put forward your own views from the perspective of a businessman.

Xi Wei, on the other hand, thought of many more things.

After all, this time is too sensitive now. If the Church of Necessary Evil had no meaning in the first place, then its only role in being brought to the fore was to attract the attention of the King's Council.

After all, no matter which era, people's rebellion is extremely important. Once this kind of thing happens, there is no doubt that the King's Council will spend a lot of energy dealing with it.

This point can be confirmed from Elina's words - the checkpoints in many countries and cities have become stricter. This kind of behavior not only poses a huge threat to those criminals, but also causes some unacceptable losses to many traffickers and even some chambers of commerce. As a businessman, this kind of loss is unacceptable. While these losses and conflicts are caused, they will inevitably attract the attention of the King's Council again in a disguised form, and they will spend a lot of energy to solve them.

And once the attention of the king's council is attracted by these things, they will certainly not pay too much attention to the changes in other things.

Such as the night nobles.

Reminiscent of the abnormal behavior of the vampires some time ago, I am afraid that they will carry out more small actions under the eyes of the king's council during this period.

Maybe even the Church of Necessary Evil itself was secretly established by these vampires for the purpose of covering their own actions.

If this is the case, then the plans of those vampires may have reached such an important point that they had to make such a incident to cover themselves.

It's just that it's still impossible to judge what step the opponent's plan has reached based on this alone.

It seems that we can only continue to start with that stupid vampire. Xi Wei sighed, suppressing his sense of guilt for cheating such an ignorant girl to the bottom of his heart.

"By the way, you're here for the steel, right?" Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Alina asked Xi Wei.

Xi Wei immediately woke up from his stupor, and nodded, "Well, that's it. So have you changed?"

"Although the quantity is not as much as you requested, it is still quite a lot."

Alina rummaged for a while on her bunny girl outfit with no pockets visible, and took out a receipt-like note from somewhere and handed it to Xi Wei.

Xi Wei took the note, glanced at it for a while, stuffed it back into his pocket, and stood up.

Indeed, as Elina said, the quantity did not meet Xi Wei's requirement, but at that time Xi Wei was asking a lot of money, and the other party would naturally pay back the money, and it was impossible for the Roland Chamber of Commerce to do white work, Xi Wei did not He is not a person who is greedy for petty gain. After so many links, he can still get so much money just now. He already thinks it is very good.

"Since you're still busy, I won't disturb your work." After shaking hands with Elena, he planned to leave Golovito, return to the floating island first, and meet Sharan in the afternoon.

But at this time, Elina asked Xi Wei: "If you are fine, would you like to go to the Tiantian Stadium with me? I happen to have something to go there in the future. If I go now, I might run into something." Good thing."

Xi Wei thought about it for a while and felt that it would be good to visit the venue of the Skyball Competition, which has been so hotly hyped, before the steel products arrived, so he readily agreed. (To be continued..)
