——With the character of that pillar god, no matter where they go next, the army will probably catch up with them.
After all, as Shylock, he had to flee with Princess Isabel.
Since the necessary task is to escort Isabel, it means that they will definitely encounter danger. It may even be the greatest danger.
But with Grand Judge Shafiya following them, how can they encounter danger? If Aiwass also follows, he may take the guardian elf with him... If a lineup of this size will be in danger,
The consultant could only think of one possibility.
That means the two prime ministers took action. Or there will be multiple fifth-level extraordinary beings arriving with the army.
Otherwise it would be unreasonable.
It is precisely because of this that he wanted to kill Isabel in the first place. In this way, he was freed from the shackles of his role as "Sherlock" and did not have to fulfill his responsibilities, nor did he have to take risks with Isabel.
What if I killed Isabel and stayed there?
He also has a mission called "The Day of Destruction is Coming" that requires him to stay on the Glass Island until the last day.
It's just the chaos of the change of throne of Avalon. This kind of thing can definitely be calmed down in two or three days. So the "Day of Destruction" that this mission refers to should refer to another thing.
For example...the complete destruction of the Glass Island.
Explain that something will definitely happen on the last day, so that everyone who stays on the Glass Island will encounter disaster.
And the consultant believes that other promoted candidates should also have this task.
The consultant also has another task, which is to assist the Great Guardian in commanding the Griffin Legion to complete the beheading operation.
Not to mention that he doesn't know the Griffin Legion at all - after all, the consultant is not a mage of the pure wisdom path, and has never commanded a war. He has no confidence in his command ability, and he doesn't know whether it will bring the risk of exposure, nor
Knowing whether it would make the situation worse... so he decided not to touch it.
Both tasks are worth 500 points.
This shows that in the view of the Lord of Scale Feathers, the dangers brought by performing this mission are basically the same - keeping all the secrets and escaping safely from Drost's imprisonment and torture is only 200%.
But now it is obvious... If Isabel has this character, then the plan to assassinate her can be rejected directly.
She might even find out his identity the moment he has thoughts of murder.
The extraordinary intuition of the path of beauty is like this. It is difficult to deal with and unreasonable.
The consultant sighed silently.
...I never expected that as a senior member of the Star Antimony people, I would one day be chased by the Star Antimony people's army during the promotion ceremony.
After his body, which had become exhausted and weak after being tortured by Minister Drost, was healed by Aiwass, his energy was replenished and his brain was finally able to function normally.
Then the counselor took a deep breath and activated the power of the path of wisdom.
As blue flames ignited under his pupils, his brain felt cool, and his thoughts instantly became clear. The consultant entered a "super-intelligent" state and began to think quickly about strategies and sort out action plans.
——Although there are many tasks in this promotion ceremony, there are actually only three ways.
Evacuate with Isabel, stay on the glass island, and escape to the countryside.
The dangers they will encounter respectively mean "facing multiple fifth-level extraordinary beings"; "waiting for Star Antimony's army under the threat of the Balrog that may explode at any time"; "facing Star Antimony in an isolated and helpless state"
"Army". There is no doubt that the third one is relatively the safest and the most difficult to gain points.
As for whether to kill Isabel, it is actually just to gain the initiative to end the promotion ceremony. But if the number of survivors is less than six, the initiative can also be transferred.
In this way, you only need to kill one more promoted person!
Now, if only two out of nine promoted people are eliminated, killing one more person will ensure that all the remaining promoted people can complete their promotion as long as they survive to the end.
So how can we ensure survival?
——There is only one answer, that is to help Isabel complete the Shadow of Avalon ritual.
If the Ritual of Avalon could be triggered when there was only one person left in Du Lac...then there are only two possibilities: it can already be activated, and it can be activated by killing Prince John.
What he pretended to be dazed and heard before was not only about the secrets of Avalon and Isabel.
It is also the key clue to this promotion ceremony!
Information obtained through a method similar to "suspended death" and lurking. This is exactly the way the Lord of Scale Feather prefers to unfold the plot, and it is extremely consistent with the behavioral logic of adapting to the path.
Of course, you must also avoid the possibility of point deductions.
If completing the Shadow of Avalon ritual is part of a certain Ascendant's mission... then as a ritual, it is most likely a mission beyond the path. And it must be the last mission, which is the most difficult mission.
Because just getting this mission clue is already extremely difficult.
...Fortunately, I considered that there were enough demonologists in Xing Antimony, and the three paths that I rejected did not include the path of transcendence.
Then besides finding his two students and giving them this important information first...
There are three more things to do in total.
First, find "Olive", the promoted person who transcends the path, complete cooperation with him, and complete the Shadow of Avalon ritual within three days; second, convince Isabel to give them the Shadow of Avalon ritual, after all, it is his
With the overheard information, I couldn't go directly to her to ask for specific details; thirdly, if no one had died by then, I would try to find a way to kill another promoted person.
——Olive is a suitable object.
Using the excuse of "silencing him", he encouraged Isabel to kill him. With Isabel's deep character and cruel methods, she would probably agree... This would easily complete the borrowed knife killing.
The dark blue flames under the consultant's pupils gradually dissipated.
He had a headache and rubbed his head, feeling that his brain became heavy.
...What is going on with this body?
He had only activated his super-intelligent state for a short while, and he felt like he had a headache that was about to explode... He usually activated it normally.
Isn't Sherlock's body too weak?
I haven't heard that he has any incurable disease...
He could only close his eyes, lie down again and rest for a while.
After only sleeping for a short while, he was woken up again by the sound outside.
The consultant quietly stood up and walked to the door, quietly listening to the sounds outside.
He soon realized that a person who absolutely should not have appeared at this time appeared——
"...Nobel, the court alchemist?"
The consultant murmured, eyes widening in disbelief.
——Albert Lorey, is that you?
His most proud student, a genius whose talent in necromancy makes half the tutors in the ziggurat jealous... but he obviously lacks sufficient life experience.
You, a court alchemist, went to Moriarty Manor to find the princess.
Don’t you think you’re a bit of an idiot for saying this?
The princess is none of your business!
Nobel is a star antimony man!
You, a Star Antimony man, escaped safely from the burning palace of silver and tin when the queen was suspected of being assassinated by a Star Antimony man, and then you are looking for the escaped Princess Isabel...
...The only good thing is that because this move is too stupid, he should not be exposed.
But there is a possibility of being imprisoned - and being imprisoned means that he cannot continue to complete his mission. And if he is tortured, it will be even more dangerous... The authoritarian path has the ability to make people tell the truth, and it is easy
Being tortured to reveal the truth about himself as a promoted person.
Then something is going to happen.
It really gets me into trouble if I can't stand it for a while...
The consultant felt a little numb in the back of his mind.
...No, we still have to find a way to save him.
With this thought in mind, "Sherlock" cleared his throat and pushed the door open.
On the other side, Bishop Mathers also pulled Aiwass aside.
His expression was also obviously a little shocked.
"...Why is Her Royal Highness really here with you?"
"What does it mean to be 'really' here with me?"
Aiwass raised his eyebrows and lowered his voice and asked: "What happened? Tell me in detail."
Bishop Mathers looked ugly: "Maybe something happened, Aiwass... will remember to lock up Master Nobel later.
"He told me what happened at the Palace of Silver and Tin. The first part was the same as what I knew, but there was a problem in the last part.
"The two princesses are obviously exactly the same, so why is he so sure that the one rescued by Ms. Shafia is the real princess? Moreover, he also tried to find the escaped princess... I felt that something must be wrong. So he took the Carter family's children with him
, tricked him into coming to you, and the result..."
