The previous battle did not last long, but the movement during the period still woke up some people, and Caiden was among them.
Her tent was not far from Ilea's tent, but when she got dressed and walked out, the battle was over, and Kaiden noticed that there were many more guards patrolling nearby.
She also saw the guard captain not far away, so she walked over and asked, "Sir Thomas, what happened?"
Thomas had already taken off his armor from his upper body, and the attendants on the side were applying wine from his injuries caused by his injuries.
Hearing this, the guard captain turned his head and nodded to Kaiden, "It's not a big deal. We just found an assassin. I fought with him, and then we were both injured and he ran away."
"Is it the woman named Selena from before?"
Thomas noticed Caiden's eyes falling on his sunken breastplate, shook his head and said, "No, it's someone else."
"Then he must be very powerful, just like a bear, otherwise he wouldn't be able to turn your armor into this. Are you sure he has escaped and won't come back again?" Kaiden asked.
"Yes, he was also injured, and my sword also hit him." Thomas said, "He shouldn't come back in a short time, and I will increase the number of patrols in the future."
"That's good, we will soon take over Lionheart Castle. At this time, the safety of Her Majesty the Queen is of utmost importance." Kaiden said.
"Thank you for reminding me," the guard captain said.
Kaiden looked around again and saw nothing worth paying attention to, so he turned back to his tent.
But to be on the safe side, she planned to ask Ruby to ask some more guards who were patrolling tonight tomorrow.
The little maid is now deeply infatuated with her and obeys her every word.
Even if Kaiden asked her to assassinate Ilea, she probably wouldn't refuse.
On the other side, Li Yu and Cornelia found an empty tent nearby, and Li Yu told the priestess everything he saw in the white building.
Then he said, "The 'battery' in Laboratory 2 is the key to everything. Without the 'battery', the Ark cannot set sail, and the most critical thing is that the Third Age has also lost the ability to kill believers in other planes.
"
"Headless giant corpse..." Cornelia pondered for a moment, and then said, "I rely on a bone to collect and store faith."
"Bones, whose bones?"
"I don't know who the owner of that bone is, and that bone doesn't look like it belongs to a human or any animal. Listening to what you said, I have a guess. Maybe it was left by the ancient gods in the past.
It's part of their body.
Li Yu nodded, "This is a reasonable guess. Do you know how to destroy them?"
"I have never tried this before... I have been treating the bone with great care since I got it, but I can study it. I hid it in a secret place in Xinlu. I will do it tonight.
go back."
When Cornelia said this, she hesitated to speak.
"Why, do you have any more questions?"
"You should know that even if I find a way to destroy that bone, that method may not be applicable to that giant headless corpse."
"I know we need a little luck to save this continent."
"Also, you said that the white building is heavily guarded."
"Yes, but I will find a way to sneak in," Li Yu said. "Now I have gained the trust of the board of directors."
"And the most important point," Cornelia finally said the words buried in her heart.
"If you succeed, you will probably never return to this continent.
"According to what you said, you need to use the company's special transmission equipment every time you come. Without the headless giant corpse that stores faith, those devices may no longer be able to operate."
After the priestess finished speaking, she noticed that Li Yu's expression was still calm, "Have you thought of this possibility for a long time?"
"Once I destroy that headless giant corpse, even if those teleportation devices can still be used, the Third Age will no longer give me the right to use them." Li Yu said.
"And I don't plan to come back again. I have been living on a planet called Earth and I don't belong here."
Cornelia's heart was shocked, "Then...does the child know?"
Li Yu shook his head, "Help me hide it from her. Ilea is not good at disguising. If I tell her the truth, Kaiden, who has been following her, will easily notice her abnormality."
"Is there no other way?" The priestess still refused to give up.
Although the two were enemies not long ago, after seeing Li Yu's memories, Cornelia only had respect and admiration for the man in front of her.
"My world is about to be destroyed." Li Yu said calmly, "Someone told me that I need to take responsibility and preserve the fire for my civilization.
"I think what he said makes sense. I have left the spark of fire, and it is here."
"During this period, I brought in the souls of many scientists and experts, plus the ordinary people I brought here one after another.
"Although their number is not large, less than two hundred people, it is enough to preserve most of the technology and knowledge of the other plane.
"As for the rest of the people, there are so many politicians and good entrepreneurs out there who are undoubtedly very, very important people, so I think it's better for them to stay where they are needed.
"A wise man recently taught me a great truth. He said that for the survival of civilization, we can sacrifice the remaining eight billion people if necessary.
"Then I discovered that it doesn't seem like 20 million people are needed to continue civilization. Two hundred people are enough.
"So, killing the remaining 20 million people is not as difficult as I thought."
Li Yu paused and his tone became gentler, "And I have left the most precious thing behind."
"What?" Cornelia asked.
"Double holiday, I hope everyone on this continent can have a double holiday in the future. I wrote it on the first page and made it bold to ensure that everyone can see it and will not forget it."
“Rest should not be deprived, it is the birthright of everyone, just like breathing, it should be protected, and my church exists for this.
"Thank you, Prophet, I will definitely do my best to protect what you left behind." Cornelia said solemnly.
"Okay, we've finished talking about the business." Li Yu said, "If you don't have anything else to do, I'm going to go find Ilea. She probably hasn't fallen asleep yet and is still waiting for me."
Well, this chapter is a bit slow to write. There is only one update tonight. I wish everyone a good weekend in the future.
This chapter has been completed!
