Seeing Leah raising her hand and staring at him with a murderous gaze, the consultant suddenly glanced at the grapes beside him, and for a moment he felt blessed.

"I have one last question," he said quickly, "am I the only one you want to kill?"

Leah did not answer, but the silence itself was the answer.

...Sure enough, there is nothing wrong with Putao.

Did he trigger some fatal condition...

The consultant's mind was full of thoughts for a moment. Although he didn't know what he had done to make her have to kill him...but in the end he decisively gave up the hope of living.

——He had seen the power of this phantom with his own eyes before, and he knew that if the other party wanted to kill him, he would have absolutely no hope of survival.

If his true form was here, there might be a chance to escape.

However, Shylock is only a third-level mage, and he doesn't even have a weapon at hand. Facing such a demigod with divinity, it can be said that there is no hope of victory.

In this case, there is no point in struggling anymore, and it may also affect the grapes.

In an instant, the consultant had already made such a plan.

"Listen!"

As he moved sideways in a direction away from "Mycroft", he shouted in a fast voice: "Don't be an enemy of Aiwass, he is the recipient of the Twin Mirror -"

He tried his best to convey the final information to Putao in words that did not reveal the identities of their promoted persons.

After saying this most critical sentence, the consultant breathed a sigh of relief.

If he dies this time, I don’t know if he will die in reality. But even if he is lucky enough to survive, he will probably lose all his memories.

The reason why the consultant is so desperate is not because the consultant is too loyal to Valentine VII. He doesn't care about Star Antimony that much.

Extraordinaries on the Dusk Path are all like this. There are very few things that they can care about from the bottom of their hearts.

——But equally, he hates "meaningless death" even more.

Because that means nothingness, the burying of value, and forgetfulness.

And dusk is the way of inscription and eternity.

If you must die, then dying during the promotion ceremony is the best choice. Not because of meaningless hatred, not because of political struggles, not because of assassination or frame-up... but because of seeking the truth.

, die for the desire to rise higher.

That is the most meaningful thing. When you die, you will not leave a chain of hatred behind.

Especially in the full moon ceremony, there is no one worthy of hatred; even in the new moon ceremony, it is a fair competition under the witness of the Pillar God.

The only one who can be blamed is that he is not strong enough and cautious enough... What he will leave behind before his death will only be the information and secrets passed on to others.

...The only regret is that I did not die during the ceremony at dusk when I entered the fifth and sixth stages of the road.

That is the "last promotion ceremony" that only exists in legends. Anyone who passes it can be called the strongest person in the material world.

The mortality rate of that ceremony was extremely high, and even if one survived, he might not be able to succeed in promotion. In the history of nearly a thousand years, there were only a few successful people. There were not many people who could reach the peak of the fifth level. He himself

The power of the fifth energy level has not yet been developed to its limit.

...It would be great if I could witness that wonder, the consultant thought to himself.

Compete with the strongest people in the world. If you succeed, you will become the strongest in the world. Even if you fail, it will mean a glorious death - you will become the fuel of miracles, and your existence will be engraved in this way.

.

There have been so many people at the fifth energy level for thousands of years, and not many people can remember their names. But if they can become nourishment for the sixth energy level, I am afraid that future generations will remember their names...

...However, his death is not meaningless.

He has handed over the most important information to Putao.

Putao is a very smart girl, and she is also the counselor's favorite student. Otherwise, he would not have made a special trip to stay with her just for Putao's promotion.

I hope she can analyze what she really wants to express from this sentence and wake up to her intentions.

——Aiwass can use the blessing of twin mirrors to copy the other party's path and ability!

The consultant stared at Pu Tao closely, as if hoping that she could understand his thoughts.

While saying those words, his feet continued to move, trying to stay away from Grape, lest the Flame Butterfly's attack to kill him would affect her - and the words he left behind were only taken from the surface.

It was a show of goodwill to Aiwass, and the Flame Butterfly had no reason to kill "Mycroft".

Just as the consultant finished his last words, he had already taken three horizontal steps.

Before the fourth step was taken, a stream of scorching flames roared out!

"Sherlock"'s body was completely engulfed in flames in an instant.

On the other side, before this.

The stranger woke up leisurely to the sound of fierce fighting.

He covered his forehead with a complicated expression.

...Today, he finally knew why one of his missions included "not to be brought back to Star Antimony".

It turns out that as long as you do nothing, you will be taken away by the Star Antimony people...

And indeed.

After all, he was born into the Star Antimony noble family, and Stranger was very familiar with the behavior of the Star Antimony Kingdom.

If this world line is established, given the Star Antimony people's desire for R&D talents, they will definitely snatch the Nobel master back. For the Star Antimony people, robbing talents is far more important than robbing resources and treasures.

A country that can accommodate children of the moon, necromancers, demonologists, witches, alchemists, wizards, priests, astrologers, hunters, and assassins at the same time is a country that welcomes all comers.

They even have a small number of local extraordinary people who follow the path of authority and the path of beauty... As long as they are talented, Xing Antimony will definitely want them.

Regardless of whether your heart is here or not, as long as you are here first. As long as the money, resources, status and respect are given, you have to work.

To take a step back, even if you really don't cooperate - does that mean that if you are killed, your soul can be extracted to become a ghost scholar? At least it is better than staying in other countries and inventing things for them.

Because Xing Antimony has always regarded himself as the "successor of the Herasl Empire", and the empire was known for its inclusiveness and tolerance of all paths. Based on this tradition, Xing Antimony cannot face it openly.

Extraordinaries of any path express resistance.

Since you want everything, let’s get something good. It’s better to give the same resources to talents than to waste.

——When he was a teenager, Moke was proud of Xing Antimony’s strong inclusiveness of “talent-only theory”.

Regardless of the path, as long as you can become a strong man or a well-known scholar, you can gain people's respect and trust. You can gain wealth and status, and be recognized by society.

To the young stranger, his talent was something he was proud of.

He doesn't think there is anything wrong with things like necromancy. In this world, as long as a person dies, his soul will return to the dream world... If left alone, the body will become undead. It would be better to say that a funeral is performed by a priest.

Then the sleeping corpse is "unnatural".

In this case, studying corpses is no different from studying monsters. People will turn into undead after death, just like flies lay eggs in carrion - studying undead is like studying these flies.

He became a powerful transcendent and a smart scholar at a young age. When he was a teenager, he gathered with those fourth-level or even fifth-level transcendents to chat and eat... He looked like

He is always very humble and gentle, that's because he has always been in contact with the top powerhouses in this country, and any one of them is much stronger than him.

In this environment, he has no pride at all.

And at the same time, he was also extremely eager... eager to reach that position.

To be able to truly communicate with their peers, rely on your own inventions and talents - rather than get to know them because of your own origins and talents.

One's origin is not something one can choose; and one's talents are not fully realized. How many things do you have that belong to you?

In this situation, the stranger is desperate for recognition.

If we talk about his advantage, it is that he is young enough. He has been exposed to a lot of new things, and his vision is different from that of the old strong men and scholars. Based on this cognitive difference, he can come up with some "ideas".

But if you just give people ideas to study, then all they can get is a thank you.

——You have to complete a complete research independently.

The stranger thought.

So when he heard that "the War Department was worried about the fact that the gargoyle troops would be incapacitated when entering the bishop's sanctuary," he immediately became interested.

In one of his previous experiments, he created unconscious flesh and blood due to an accidental mistake. These flesh and blood can only be used as flesh and blood skins for splicing corpses, and are not of much value... But if they are used as gargoyles,

What about skinning?

——As a result, before graduating from Moke University, the papers he published were published in the highest-level academic journals, and even attracted the attention of several generals.

He immediately became interested.

Although the initial request has been completed, Gargoyle, as an aerial scout, has the ability to sneak into the sanctuary without being immediately paralyzed...but can he do better?

The flesh and blood skin is easily broken and may fall off during high-speed flight. Then put on a metal shell for fixation and protection.

But in this case, the dexterous gargoyle will become bulky. It will lose its significance as a silent scout, but as a close combat unit, it really lacks attack power.

——Then why not just throw explosives.

In the past, gargoyles could not do this because the explosives would change the gargoyle's center of gravity, making their flight unstable and difficult to throw to the designated area. Now, after the weight of the gargoyle has increased significantly, it can actually be thrown.

It worked.
To be continued...
