Realizing that the gift Professor Wiseman was about to give to Joshua was a "memory recovery gift package", Ling immediately woke up and dragged him away from Joshua without any explanation.
As expected, we cannot take it lightly. History has long proven that losers often fall behind at critical moments.
"Huh? I thought you would be unhappy when you saw Joshua-kun and Estelle-kun having such a good atmosphere, so I wanted to help you. If his memory is restored, Joshua might return to the association and return to
I'm with you. I didn't expect your reaction to be so big." Professor Wiseman adjusted his collar, "It's obvious that the absolute hint has not been lifted on you, so why can you attack me?"
Wiseman probably thought that Ling was his subordinate, so he took her with him with confidence.
"Have you forgotten? Our agreement is to assist you until the completion of the gospel plan. As for teaching you your personal bad taste, this is not within the scope of the gospel plan." Ling said to him angrily.
"Haha, word play?"
"No, it's about thinking logically." Ling sighed, "There is no need to do anything more. I know you are very concerned about Joshua's affairs, but now that the plan has reached a critical stage, you should focus on the plan. Even if you
You are the Apostle of the Snake, so don’t deliberately annoy me and Levi.”
"Hehehehe, but even if I didn't interfere, his reaction today is quite interesting, isn't it? It's amazing that he can still detect the existence of our snakes when his cognition and memory are manipulated. He deserves to be the one who created it.
Works." Wiseman praised Joshua's insight.
"Don't take all the credit for yourself. I think this is more about his growth after becoming a guerrilla." Ling felt that Joshua may have become a more reliable man than the previous one.
"Haha, hahahaha..." Wiseman smiled and pushed open the door of the historical museum. He returned to the base with Ling.
After resting for four hours to allow herself to recover, Ling opened her eyes at five o'clock in the morning. After washing and leaving the historical archives, she came outside the capital and summoned Patil Madi with her thoughts.
Well, I entered the Shadow City Fortress for daily exercise.
After completing the three daily tasks, Ling came to Regnart's side. Through the gospel, she indirectly gave instructions to him, making him his sparring partner.
Through yesterday's data collection on Regnate, Ling has established a model of conceptual protection.
In a sense, the conceptual protection held by the holy beast is quite similar to the full attribute immunity of the angel sheep Bobo.
If a pure physical attack is used, it must have a huge and terrifying power to offset the conceptual protection. The same is true for attribute attacks.
But after she tried various methods, she finally found a way to bypass the conceptual protection and directly attack the ancient dragon's body, and that was to use the unique skill of the Underworld Sword mixed with karma.
In fact, she had confirmed that the Underworld Sword was effective when she was dealing with those longing bodies that were immune to both physical and demonic creatures in the different space of Cyanbi Tower, and it was probably not beyond her expectation that it would work on holy beasts.
The hellfire formed by injecting evil karma into fighting spirit can penetrate conceptual protection and cause a certain proportion of damage. But unfortunately, the efficiency of this attack is not very good.
As long as conceptual protection still exists, it can greatly reduce the power of attacks.
If the Underworld Sword can exert 100% of its power when attacking an object, then its power after being reduced by conceptual protection is only one point.
Although it can indeed cause damage to Regnart, it is only equivalent to the level of damage to a human being bitten by a mosquito. The holy beast itself has extremely high self-healing ability. With Ling's current efforts, it must continue
It would take more than ten hours of attacking to kill Regnart, and she might have exhausted her strength long before killing the ancient dragon.
She finally understood why she couldn't kill the shadow in another space when she was fighting alone. Only when Wiseman used the Thunder of Judgment blessed by external principles to cut off the opponent's protection could her sword be able to kill him.
It was simply because her attack power wasn't high enough that she blasted the opponent.
To sum up, the holy beast is really difficult to deal with. If she hadn't been able to use the Gospel and the power of the Ring of Radiance to temporarily suppress its thinking, she wouldn't even be able to discover how strong the opponent's body is.
It is not meaningless to be able to cause slight damage to Regnart. At least Ling collected a little dragon blood and dragon scales from its holy beast.
Ling analyzed the composition of dragon blood and found that it was indeed different from ordinary species. Its cell structure was greatly different from that of humans.
Once the dragon scales are separated from Regnart's body, they no longer have the blessing of conceptual protection. Although it is still a good material, the hardness test results show that it is not as good as the Samlian stone. For her,
It doesn't make much sense. Use it to forge a dragon scale sword or make a piece of dragon scale armor? It seems that there is no need for it. Even if it is made, it may not be any better than the S weapon produced by the black workshop.
As for using dragon blood to bathe to improve physical fitness? Of course it is nonsense and has no scientific reason. Why does Ling know this? It is because she has tried it herself.
After tossing with the ancient dragon for a while, and keeping specimens of all the dragon marrow, dragon spirit, dragon muscle and keel bones to be collected, Ling released Regnart to Lake Valyria, using the gospel to indirectly control it and put it into a deep sleep.
To carry out dormancy and self-regeneration. For the ancient dragon's body, which was more than 30 cubits long, a few pieces of flesh were dug out, which was an injury that could be fully recovered in just a few days.
Regnart will probably sleep until the Gospel plan is completed. After the plan is completed and the Ring of Glory is recovered, Gospel will no longer have the power to control Regnart. And at that time, the ancient dragon's resurrection is not something she can deal with.
It would be better to throw away this hot potato as soon as possible.
AM, 08:55.
After Ling returned to Grancel, she went to the Imperial Embassy to meet with Jost. From her, she learned that rf26, the frigate known as the Lynx by the Capua family, had been handed over to the empire.
As an employee of Linefort, Ling accepted the entrustment from the embassy and went to Grancel Airport to inspect the rf26.
"Look at this, they are well maintained. It is indeed the Liberel Kingdom's army, which is famous for its air force. They know how to maintain flying ships." Seeing the familiar and nostalgic ship, Jost immediately thought excitedly
Go in and take a look.
"It's not possible now. I heard from the embassy staff that you are going back to the Empire tomorrow, right? Until then, don't act rashly."
"Yeah, I know. I'll just take a look outside. I'll leave it to you to see what's going on inside, Ling."
Ling took out the activation key given to her by the embassy staff and opened the door of rf26. After turning on the shipboard guidance calculator, she immediately entered the secret key that only she, the developer, knew.
Soon, Ling confirmed from the voyage log that the hidden functions she configured for the ship had not been activated once. In fact, this is also easy to understand. The Capua Sky Pirates have not yet been defeated in aerial combat, and of course they have not.
opportunity to activate this emergency escape function.
"The inspection is completed, there is no problem."
After getting off the airship, Ling told the result to Jost, who was anxious and anxious. After hearing what she said, Jost breathed a sigh of relief.
AM, 10:10.
When Ling and Qiaost returned to the embassy in the imperial capital, they noticed that the atmosphere in the embassy seemed to be inexplicably tense.
She asked the soldier Campbell at the door. It seemed that the Albert Palace, which was used to search the headquarters of terrorists, had been attacked, but he did not know the specific details.
After Ling handed the activation key to Josté's eldest brother Doron, she heard a message from the staff saying that Olivier wanted to see him for something and asked her to go to Mulla's reception room.
Is the mysteriously missing person finally willing to show up? Ling came to Mulla's room without much thought. In the room, besides Olivier, she also saw a person who according to her considerations at this moment was absolutely unacceptable.
Someone who should be here.
Originally, according to her calculations, Estelle and Joshua could not win the martial arts competition and therefore would not be able to meet the queen. Of course, they would not be able to participate in the original plot of Sora no Kiseki. But she did not expect that some plots would be based on this.
A form appeared in front of her.
Ling was wondering if this was the end of the world line, but soon she felt that she was overthinking it.
"Colos Linxi? No, with this outfit, I should call you Princess Coladia. What's going on, Ogua?"
Ling glanced at Kross, then looked at the blond young man next to her.
"No wonder Mulla said that you were nowhere to be seen all day yesterday. Could it be that you stole the princess from the royal city of Grancel? It belongs to you."
"Rescuing a beautiful princess is a supreme honor for a gentleman... How is that possible? Well, in short, for such and such reasons, this beautiful lady is currently under secret protection at the Imperial Embassy."
Olivier winked at Ling.
"Haha, Xiaoling. We met again. Last month we met at Janis Wangli Academy. Sorry, I hid my identity from everyone at that time." The vine-haired girl spoke quite calmly, probably because she was dressed as a princess.
Because of the skirt, she is acting like a princess. No, she is a princess in the first place, so she doesn’t need to act like it at all.
"Actually, I was not in the Royal City of Grancel before, but was placed under house arrest in the Abel Palace by Colonel Richard of the Intelligence Department. In the name of targeting terrorist organizations, they sent soldiers from the Intelligence Department to be stationed there. In order to force the Queen to abdicate,
I'm a hostage."
After the door opened, a few more people walked in.
"This is Baron Blubrand from the empire. He used a trick to trick the special agents into thinking he was me. This is Miss Sherazade, a guerrilla from Lorente. This is Lucio.
Miss La, Miss Sherazade's sister, she used the fog to throw off the pursuers. And Mr. Olivier, they worked together to rescue me."
Clodia thought Ling didn't know these people, so she took the initiative to introduce them to them all.
Blubrand, Luciola, Sherazade and Olivier appear together.
Sherazade nodded to Ling, and Blubrand and Luciola also made the same gesture, pretending to be meeting for the first time.
Blubrand, with blue hair and golden eyes, looks a bit handsome without a mask. Unfortunately, Ling knows that this is not his real appearance, but one of his common disguises. He also has several similar hair styles that can be changed at any time.
As for Bulublan's true appearance, Ling has never seen it.
It turned out that Coladia was "stolen" by Bulublan, the flower protector. Why did they appear here in such harmony? Ling planned to wait until later to ask. But what Coladia said next made her confused.
Her brows twitched.
"Although it's a little hard to say, I still hope to get your help. I hope you can help me sneak into the royal city and attend the dinner tonight, okay?"
"Are you seeking medical attention because of your illness? Even if the embassy can protect your personal safety, have you considered the consequences if the empire directly intervenes in the kingdom's internal affairs?"
Ling's tone could not be said to be good. She knew that Clodia had to muster up a lot of courage to say this decision, but she still decided to pour cold water on her.
"The Guerrilla Association has a hard time acting because of its regulations not to interfere in the country's internal affairs, but I can participate in my personal capacity," Sherazade said.
"Miss Sherazade, thank you for your kindness. Xiaoling, listen to me. I just want to confront Colonel Richard once and confirm his true thoughts." Coladia said in a firm tone.
Extraneous problems! This is called extraneous problems, right?
"After all, why did you come to me?" Ling threw a vicious look at Olivier.
"Well, after all, it was you who analyzed this incident for me before. I don't think it's good to hide it from you, hahahaha..."
Come on, it turned out that it was because she accidentally said a few more words during the secret meeting on the lake boat the day before yesterday that made Olivier decide to participate in it?
"It's not just what Olivier means. It has something to do with me. I heard it from other people in the association. Miss Ling, you are also an insider, right?" Sherazade said to Ling.
Ling and Sherazade did not know each other before, but Sherazade obtained Ling's information through Ainan of the Guerrilla Association, and learned that she was a participant in Chase's "Square Table Conference."
"You are a trustworthy person, and you are very strong. At this critical moment, it is best to have a strong person like you to help." According to Joshua's report, Sherazade knew about Ling and a
Level guerrilla Jin and the imperial embassy attaché Mulla also have the strength of the master class, so Sherazade judged that she could become a powerful helper. But in fact, it was not until they met that she discovered that Ling was far more powerful than she expected.
She was even petite. If the information hadn't stated that she was seventeen years old, Sherazade would have thought she was a child of only twelve or thirteen years old.
All in all, Ling was involved by Olivier and Sherazade.
"It's actually not as difficult as everyone thinks. Please take a look at this."
Clodia took out an old map.
"There is such a good thing." Sherazade understood what was depicted on this map at a glance.
"This map is the internal structure of the underground waterways of the Royal Capital. It shows the hidden waterways leading to the underground waterways of the Royal Capital."
Seeing Olivier staring at the underground waterway map with interest, Ling was even more speechless. Didn't Clodia think about the consequences of letting the empire know such important military secrets? No, maybe she thought about it,
But maybe she has no choice. According to the current development of the situation, if the queen abdicates and Dunant becomes the new king, Clodia's situation will definitely be even worse than it is now.
"Because there are quite powerful monsters in the underground waterways, I would like to ask Miss Sherazade, Mr. Olivier, and Xiaoling to be my guards."
"I understand. Although there is no reward, I accepted this task. Snakes have their own ways, rats have their own ways. Sometimes you can't be bound by rules." Sherazade agreed.
"As for Miss Luciola and Mr. Bluebrand, if things don't go smoothly, it's up to you to implement them according to the original plan."
"For a royal family, Princess Clodia, you are really courageous." Olivier sighed.
Seeing Ling's puzzled expression, Clodia hesitated and then looked at Olivier. After the latter nodded to her, she finally explained.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoling. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with you. The so-called original plan was to liberate the royal city and rescue the Queen's grandmother. Miss Luciola and Mr. Bluebrand actually belong to a certain killer organization. Because
The Guerrilla Association cannot interfere in the internal affairs of the state power, and the Chasseur Regiment is prohibited from entering Libel. Now the only ones that can act are the killer organizations hidden in the dark. Assassinating political opponents is the worst of the worst. But now.
...Colonel Richard once said to me that the tide of time is turbulent and will not wait for immature people to grow up slowly. Therefore, I can no longer hesitate."
Make a request to the Body-Eating Snake to attack the Royal Castle of Grancel? If you can't convince Colonel Richard, ask them to use violence to rescue the Queen?
This development is completely wrong. Is this still the Kross she remembers? What kind of suffering did this girl suffer during the days of house arrest that caused her style of painting to change to what it is now?
"Isn't it interesting to be able to witness the birth of a king?" Olivier was very interested in this.
"Wait a minute, you said this was the original plan? Then that's not the plan now." Lingfa asked.
"Well, maybe I am still a little naive after all. So I want to talk to Colonel Richard again to see if we can find a path that we both agree on. If it doesn't work, then use it as a second option.
." Coladia said.
"I'll just accept your statement for now. Okay, I agree to join your team and go to Grancel City with you." After Ling thought about it for a while, she finally agreed.
The group of people agreed on the implementation of a specific plan, and then took action individually according to the task assignment.
By the way, everyone present did not know that Olivier also had the identity of the eldest prince of the empire, Olibat. And Blubrand and Luciola did not reveal to others the truth that Ling was also a member of the Body-Eating Snake.
Ling, the only one who knew the truth on both sides, chose to remain silent. Princess Clodia's sudden outburst disrupted her arrangements, and now she had to recalculate her plans.
