Mi Lai, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by two black nuns who came from the morning light. The long-term vigilance of intelligence work made her quickly realize that something big had happened.
Wearing only her inner lining, she picked up the clothes on the side and asked, "What happened?"
"Something seems to have happened to Tanya's mansion. Not long ago, a large number of mages were suddenly mobilized from the magician academy on the west side of Wupu City, and then a strict blockade was implemented in the mansion area."
The chaotic situation in Mera Continent has made Mi Lai work at a high intensity every day recently. She was so exhausted that she could barely fall asleep and was suddenly woken up today. Her brain was still a little groggy, but when she heard the news, her whole body was agitated and she suddenly felt sleepy.
dissipate.
Milai asked: "How big is the blocked area?"
"They have used the double insurance of the magic circle and the magic messenger. Any prying eyes may be discovered. You can be sure that... something big has happened."
It wasn't until this happened that Mi Lai realized that the room was completely dark. She casually triggered the sensors of the wall lamp and table lamp. The soft light hit her tense face, and her embarrassment appeared and disappeared.
With this level of defense suddenly being used, Milai concluded that this was an attack on Tanya, but he didn't know what the outcome would be.
"If Tanya dies, it will have a big impact on the adults' plans."
With his hands clenched into fists and placed against his forehead, Milai thought for a long time. Finally, he sighed and comforted the two nuns who also knew the seriousness of the matter: "There will be news at dawn. We can only wait now."
After a sleepless night, Mi Lai waited until dawn and was about to go out to investigate for himself, when there was a sudden knock on the door.
Wearing dark blue and light gray silk gowns, several Wupu Academy mages signaled to the two nuns, walked slowly into the hall, and gave a slight salute to Mi Lai who was walking towards them.
"Ms. Corinna, we were sent here by the consul. According to the entry and exit registration, you went to Her Majesty Tanya's residence yesterday. Can you tell me where you were between dusk and early morning last night?"
Milai put on a standard business smile: "Of course I'm staying at home."
"Never went out?"
"Never."
The mage in charge of the record closed the note after asking for no results.
The leading mage had a close relationship with Mi Lai. After letting her companions leave the mansion first, she approached Mi Lai and said softly: "Her Majesty Tanya was attacked last night."
Mi Lai frowned and asked quickly: "Your Majesty, she..."
"Don't worry, it's nothing serious, but except for a few magicians, most of the others in the mansion... I arrived as soon as possible. The scene at that time was extremely miserable, and there was an unpleasant smell in every corner of the mansion.
There was a putrid smell, waiters and guards fell to the ground in a mess, the corpses were swollen and swollen, their faces were blue and black, their skin was ulcerated and pus-filled, and many people's eyeballs even melted and fell off... It was simply shocking."
Unlike the violent attack that Milai had guessed, what Tanya suffered was a more dangerous poisoning.
Since Tanya herself has always been in the habit of drinking freshly squeezed juice, she drank fresh juice that had been prepared in advance, and that day she happened to be having a banquet with her close magicians who were eating together.
Since it was a private banquet, and in order to liven up the atmosphere, Tanya stipulated that she would only eat the prey she had hunted in the morning, and even the chef was a personal maid, so everyone who participated in the banquet that day was safe.
As for the rest of the people, they were not so lucky. There were even three sixth-level magicians on the death list this time, and they happened to have just been promoted and were about to be received and rewarded by Tanya herself.
Mi Lai's thoughts were racing, and she figured out everything in a flash. After bidding her acquaintance farewell respectfully, she closed the door tightly and opened the soundproofing circle.
"Lord Milai, do you know who did it?"
"You don't have to think about it. The school must have taken action personally, and it's the Potion School." Milai said.
"Since he plans to poison, Tanya's eating habits must be something the poisoner needs to master. This person can quietly deliver deadly poison to the entire mansion, and he will definitely also prepare for emergencies.
Good plan, even if he can't interfere with Tanya's banquet menu, there are other ways to complete the poisoning."
"But Tanya wasn't poisoned, was she?"
"So there must have been other emergencies at the banquet, which ultimately led to the failure of this person's plan." Milai chuckled and pointed to his head: "Think more and learn to think."
"Just imagine, a person who plans the entire poisoning process to avoid mistakes must have participated in the entire banquet and was active in the mansion that night. Why should someone like me who didn't go there be investigated? It's not meaningless
?"
"The reason for this random investigation is that there is a high probability that Tanya already knows who is attacking her. She is just trying to pretend to be stupid. She is still thinking about how to respond to further attacks from the school.
"
Milai doesn't have much contempt for Tanya's performance. For hundreds of thousands of years, there have been very few people who have faced the school directly. Tanya, who has not suffered serious losses since raising the flag, has underestimated the background of this monster and is now a little panicked.
It is completely understandable that she will wake up later and realize that she has no way out and can only hold on to the end.
"Everything is starting to accelerate. The Black Corpse Society's catalyst is far more powerful than imagined. The continent of Mera is already boiling."
One day later, Tanya delivered an hour-long speech to all the residents of Green Shade. In this speech, which was mixed with indignation and anger, she pointed the poisoning incident in the mansion to "The Flood of Life" and expressed that she
I am 100% certain that it was this school of potion that killed eighty-one innocent lives.
Since the end of the last magic wave, no one has expressed dissatisfaction with the school so directly in hundreds of years. In her speech, Tanya compared the school to the last Melias, which is contrary to the cruel method of suppressing all thoughts.
People who do not hesitate to use despicable means such as assassination to maintain their rule and authority.
A huge boulder fell on the ripples of the lake, and water splashed into the sky. For the first time, everyone on the shore watching the development of the situation felt "cool".
Unlike the Black Corpse Society, which is a disruptor of order, Tanya has a very positive image in the entire Mela, and her character is extremely popular. The school's remarks against the Black Corpse Society do not apply to Tanya.
The Theocracy, Sligo, and even Codezon, who was having internal conflicts, stood silently in the audience, and the leaders of each country smelled the subtle atmosphere that permeated the entire Mera.
After the magic wave started, the undercurrents surging everywhere are quietly converging, pointing directly at the important link that has become inertia in the Mera order.
[The Flood of Life] The chief potion master issued an angrily announcement, angrily accusing Tanya of making things up out of thin air and framing her.
The magicians who came to Sligo saw the furious red face of the potion master. During the course of his story, he banged the table several times and scolded Tanya for her insidious methods, turning the purge of the faction into an external conflict, and swore to the origin of magic to prove it.
clean.
Several schools of thought are also supporting [The Flood of Life] at this moment, believing that everything is Tanya's performance, and the so-called school persecution is a tragic drama she staged to save the situation after she was at a disadvantage in the Solonian Civil War.
However, just when the various schools of thought were talking to each other and seemed to be drowning Tanya with words, another assassination happened.
Tania was assassinated in full public view when she was out. The caster manipulated the potted plants placed on both sides of the street, releasing a large amount of toxic dust.
…
…
After listening to Mi Lai's report, Lulu immediately concluded: "The first time was true, and the second time was definitely directed and acted by her. Even the school probably picked one to criticize at random. Anyway, she was not targeting a single organization, but the entire
, Tanya can do such a thing."
"There were reports of casualties among Tanya's personal guards at the scene, and there was more than one person. Isn't this price a bit high..." Lu Yu didn't react this time.
"Not all of the dead soldiers raised by Tanya are strong men with amazing fighting power and are willing to die at any time. There are also some very special ones. The meaning of their existence is 'death'." Lulu said, "These people are originally from poor backgrounds.
They are already grateful to have been cultivated by Tanya to around the third level, and they have young and old at home who need to be taken care of, so they have been controlled by her for a long time. The original purpose of their existence is to frame and discredit Tanya's other brothers, and trigger a struggle among the heirs.
Fishing for profit."
"After all, dead people can't speak, and sometimes they are much more useful than living people." Lulu recalled, "Tanya has trained no less than a hundred such people, and her dear friend is even on the list of people she plans to assassinate.
Brother Zeniel.”
Lulu had seen the truest side of Tanya and knew that this person also had a side that would do whatever it took to achieve her goals. She was very brainwashed by following her at the time, and she never felt anything was wrong until she threw herself into Lu Yu and Sera.
Embracing and recalling the past, fear and cold gradually followed.
She was sincerely glad that she met Lu Yu and Sera.
"In any case, she is carrying the flag and taking a step forward. After today, I am afraid that the doubts about the various university factions will not be so easy to suppress. Although I don't want to say this, without the interference of the Black Corpse Society, everything will not be so smooth.
."
Serra reminded: "It seems like this is a game of stretching rubber bands. Once the pressure on the school is too great and eventually breaks, they will inevitably show their most brutal side and suppress everything at all costs... We should make some preparations in advance.
."
"You mean to help Tanya again?" Lu Yu curled his lips disdainfully, "I will not give her any more templates. Originally, we planned to let Tanya and Zenil fight with the school, causing Quan Meila
In the crusade against the school, it is best for Mela that they both lose. In the new glorious era, it can last longer with fewer conspirators."
Sera clicked her tongue: "Why is there no tacit understanding at this time? I mean necromancy magic."
"Once the school starts violent suppression, it will definitely hurt the magicians standing on the wall. These people feel the danger in the chaotic situation and will most likely look for shelter. Do you think the Necromancy School will benefit? They are now
But for those who claim to be able to 'give ordinary people the power they dream of', it is said that some people in Solon and even the Theocracy abandoned their faith and joined it."
Lu Yu whistled: "Guess which direction I am controlling my body to fly in now?"
"I haven't used the [Shadow Kingdom] template exchanged by the red-haired woman yet. Since Sarah is hiding and doesn't dare to fight, I will clean up her followers first."
"I have a question." Sera and Lulu heard this and said in unison.
"Uh, you ask."
"Why are they all pioneers? You look so frustrated as a summoning pioneer." Sera said.
"I think so too. Sarah's necromancy magic has improved much faster than you... Lu Yu, you know, I really like... like you. I don't mean anything else by saying this. It's just that
I'm just curious, I really have no other meaning, so don't worry." Lulu coughed and pretended to shield herself as if nothing had happened, "I just wanted to ask... is it possible... there are differences among the pioneers as well.
"
Sierra interrupted: "Don't be so tactful, be direct."
