"No problem, you can make your own arrangements." Arnold looked up and down at Douglas with a smile, without concealing his expression, as if he had just reacquainted himself with this chemist who was hundreds of years younger than him.
At this time, Priscilla walked over like a tulip, swaying, and said to Douglas with a smile on his lips: "You, um, how do you put it? The angle and way of thinking about the problem are very surprising. Indeed, there are
Phenomenons permeate our lives, making us accustomed to them just like our own hands and eyes, forgetting to ask why this happens."
"More than five hundred years later, I feel the shock again when I first came into contact with magic."
Douglas could only smile and nod at this enthusiastic lady's praise: "The exploration of magic and the world will never end."
"Okay, let's not delay." Priscilla didn't hesitate and looked at the others with a bright smile. "The most important thing right now is to assassinate Alfonso. You all should follow the plan after you go back."
Plan? The corner of Fernando's mouth twitched. These old guys had already made a plan when they communicated in private?
The fat and bloated Nelson looked at Douglas with his ruby eyes and snorted: "Are all the magicians in Antiphore studying this kind of problem? No wonder they were conquered by the Church of Truth..."
Douglas did not argue with him. He clearly remembered that this man was a remnant of Arthur's empire, and he was best at blood fusion and physical transformation.
"Sometimes, I often wonder what the power of shadows is and where it comes from..." Amaunata said in an erratic voice. Then she disappeared into the shadows in the room.
Kangers looked at Arnold and said in his usual sinister and hoarse voice: "Old fox, I will do what you say, but if something goes wrong with your plan, huh..."
After watching the leaders of each organization leave one by one, Arnold picked his nose in an awkward manner: "Dealing with these guys is much more tiring than fighting them."
"Without a foundation of trust, we can only do it step by step." Douglas smiled and didn't mind this.
"This operation is the first step towards trust. Thank you to the 'Dark Blue Demon'. Regardless of whether he really wanted to kill Alfonso or not, at least he gave us a chance to jointly act. After this first time, think again.
It will be much easier if you organize it for the second or third time." Arnold returned to his smiling and amiable old man appearance.
Fernando said angrily: "But it must succeed! If it fails, it will be difficult to have a second cooperation. Unless one party is close to destruction. Old man, what is the plan you have drawn up?"
There were only Arnold and Douglas here, so he called out the old man smoothly.
Arnold did not scold Fernando for his impoliteness, and said with a smile: "It's very simple. I have said it before, the 'Tower of Destroyer' is responsible for leading Alfonso out, and other organizations cover and cooperate with us. The church will definitely not think of us.
Already united."
"How to draw it out? Aren't you afraid that the church will suspect a trap? Aren't you afraid of attracting the 'Heart of Time'? He has been arresting magicians recently." Fernando expressed dissatisfaction with this plan, even if the church did not know that so many magic organizations had secretly united.
, can be lured a little bluntly, and it is easy to see that there is a trap, and then it is likely to encounter a thunderous strike.
Arnold looked at Fernando with a smile on his face: "You are just a seven-ring magician. This kind of battle is useless. What do you care about the specific plan?"
"I, I will become a master soon!" Fernando, who was despised, said angrily as Arnold expected.
"Haha." Arnold laughed twice, "It's good to be young, but you also need to join this operation. No one can control thunderstorms better than you. Don't worry, the temptation will never let Ah
Fang Suo saw something was wrong."
Fernando glared at the president angrily, feeling as if he had been teased: "Then how exactly can you induce Alfonso to leave Rentat? If I didn't feel sure, I wouldn't take part in the action!"
"Hey, I'm just waiting for you to say this, then you won't participate. I was always afraid that you would be reckless and want to join." Arnold smiled treacherously, and then sped up his speech before Fernando roared, "Okay, I
Just kidding, the specific inducement plan can only be made after investigating Alfonso's character, hobbies, work style, and choice habits. But the core will not change, which is that the 'Tower of Destroyer' will report to the Inquisition through the traitors hidden within.
Tell the truth."
"The traitor hidden inside? Do they know the traitor?" Fernando asked in shock. At the same time, he secretly cursed in his heart that such an old man could still smile so treacherously. What a born old fox!
Arnold smiled and shook his head: "Fernando, you are too young and too naive. Although the major organizations dare not say that they have grasped all the hidden traitors, they have at least grasped some of them and placed them in a position that will not cause too much damage.
Lost their position, and now it's their time to 'play' for the organization."
He added: "Sometimes, traitors are more valuable to us."
Douglas kept smiling while listening, vaguely feeling strange that Mr. President didn't seem to need to explain in such detail. Is this how he usually communicated with Fernando?
Fernando thought for a while, and roughly understood what Arnold meant, and cursed in his heart again, old fox!
"Actually, after Sharp 'entrusted' this mission, the two of them have automatically joined the operation, and there is no need to sign up again." Arnold chuckled, "By the way, Douglas, I am very curious about your question.
Are you interested in chatting?"
"Very happy." Douglas replied without hesitation.
As the three of them returned to the Land of Thousand Lakes, they exchanged the questions raised by Douglas and each expressed their own unverified opinions.
When he entered the ruins at the bottom of the lake and emerged, Arnold's smile had disappeared, and he frowned, with a thoughtful look on his face: "Weird, your ideas are very strange, wrong, wrong..."
While muttering to himself, he did not forget to send Roland to meet several vice-presidents to come over for discussion.
When Rigg, Ramon and Veronica came in, Arnold had already returned to normal. He recounted the gathering of major organizations with a smile, and finally said: "In this operation, we are responsible for the two most important ones.
If this link is successful, we will be able to lead other cooperation in the future. Among them, the second link is the actual hands-on, with Douglas and I in charge, and Fernando, Kangers, Nelson, Amenata and others covering and cooperating. This is
It’s been decided. No doubt.”
He talked about the second step first, and then looked at Rigg: "The first step is to lure Ktonia away and eliminate the possibility of him following him secretly."
Fernando suddenly realized that before, he was worried that when he lured out Alfonso, he would also lure out the "Heart of Time". After all, no one could be sure that he was only interested in the magicians of the union. The old fox was so thoughtful!
"If we act alone, the conspiracy will definitely be seen through two consecutive deceptions. Therefore, there must be cooperation from other organizations. Similarly, if the time between the two deceptions is too short, it will definitely be seen through. Rigg, I
I need you to go south tomorrow and lead Ketonia in a circle for a week. You are the vice president and deserve his attention."
Arnold looked at Rigg, his expression became very serious and solemn, "I know, this is very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be killed by Ketonia. There are only nine ring masters, and you are the only one who is good at escaping and hiding.
Only then can you be competent, and you must also pay attention to the way you expose your whereabouts, so as not to make Ctonia suspicious and make him think that he has been hunting you, just like he used to hunt other magicians and high-level magicians."
The danger of this task made Fernando a little scared, and he suspected that Rigg would refuse, but the gloomy and deep Rigg said very calmly: "No problem, this is my responsibility."
Douglas didn't know Rigg well, so he didn't think it was a big deal, but Fernando's eyes widened. This old guy usually fights for power and is mean and vicious, but at critical moments, he is still very aware and reliable!
At this moment, he felt that Rigg's aquiline nose didn't seem so ugly.
Arnold lost his seriousness, smiled and sighed: "We can only move forward in danger, Rigg, how about we change? I will lead Ketonia in a circle, and you and Douglas will join forces to kill Alfonso?"
I am the president, so I should take on the most dangerous aspects."
Rige showed a smile: "Forget it, your link is more dangerous. If something happens, it will be difficult for you to escape. But for me, at least everything is under my control."
"Then it's decided." Arnold turned to look at Fernando, "Fernando, you still have a mission, go back to Rentat and collect Alfonso's information, including but not limited to hobbies, personality, work style, choices
tendencies, interpersonal relationships.”
In the past, they had never thought about assassinating Alfonso, so they only collected information such as magic and combat cases that Alfonso was good at. This was obviously not enough for assassination.
"Isn't a few days too tight?" Fernando asked doubtfully. Vice President Rigg was about to go south and would start taking action in a few days. He would only have five days at most to collect intelligence.
Arnold smiled and said: "You only need to collect some side information to confirm the main information. For specific information, please directly ask the 'Dark Blue Demon'."
"Ah?" Fernando was stunned again.
"He is the person who entrusted the task, and he knows Alfonso very well. Who else can we turn to if we don't ask him for this kind of thing?" Arnold said with a half-smile.
"But, but..." Fernando was filled with worry. At this time, Douglas interrupted: "Go ahead, no problem."
He seemed to understand the hidden meaning of the president? Fernando glanced at Douglas and then at President Arnold, but why didn’t he understand?
Suddenly, he felt that he looked a little stupid in front of these two people...
Before leaving, Douglas found Fernando and took out several black-covered books and notebooks: "It's rare to meet a child who is so interested in mathematics and science. I have some materials and experiences from my past studies. Please give them to Sharp and ask him to pass them on.
For Hathaway, there's nothing magical in it."
Fernando nodded: "Well, I also have to give her some books on mathematics and physics." (To be continued...)
