Overturned Tower

The godfather looked at him in surprise.

This timid and cowardly capitulator... was actually the first to realize what the godfather's true purpose was?

The plan he thought of was even more careful and perfect than the barber's own idea!

He did realize that this was an attack on the mercenary group.

To be precise, this kills two birds with one stone.

At the same time attacking the authority of the godfather and alienating people from mercenaries.Very simple and clumsy divorce plan... That's why the godfather can't kill them, but to unite a part and ask them to attack a "representative" in public.

It doesn't matter if that person is innocent or not—as long as they do so, they have already shown their attitude and thrown the blame out.

The idea of ​​the godfather is actually very simple.

Since the opponent wanted to kill two birds with one stone, if he hit the mercenary's authority, at least half of his goal would be accomplished.

In chess, this is called "the general draws the rook".

——Since that person stood up to be his enemy, he had to let that person's plan come to nothing.

Chapter 30 Dead Bones

In fact, this is a technique learned by the godfather.

Ignore the wishes of others and let the other party achieve their goals no matter what they choose...

——This is a skill he just learned from Grandma Lan not long ago.

Just by being asked a question jokingly by Grandma Lan, he acquired this skill.

If there is any talent that Russell can be proud of in front of his outstanding colleagues... it is his excellent learning ability.

Not from books.It's about extracting a certain quality from someone else.

He can penetrate into the essence of a person and finely judge the components of the other person's emotions and will.

Just like before, he was able to realize that... when he was using spells with all his strength, his emotions were gradually infiltrated by the dream world.

He can be very sure that these young mages in the lower city will definitely not realize that there is a problem here.

Russell was able to react immediately because he was very aware of his "quantity of emotions".

What kind of emotions will you experience when you encounter something? Russell's perception of his emotions can be as fine as a millisecond.That's why he realized that "the level of his anger is wrong" the moment the "foreign body" flowed into him.

But ordinary mages probably don't have this kind of talent.

Strictly speaking, those mercenaries are also the experimental products of the godfather.

He learned that "game" from Tovatus; the means of deterring those mercenaries, he learned it the first day he saw strangulation and his lover - the lover's hand was burned by him, that is, he learned it from strangulation. Skills learned.

Now, this is the technique learned from Grandma Lan:

No matter how these mercenaries choose—under the threat of death, they acquiesce in the choice of Hunting Bow; or they are dissatisfied with Hunting Bow and stand up to deny his authority.

Their answers are bound by the godfather to "yes" or "no".

But whether they are or not, they have actually answered another question by default.

That is, do you want to trouble the godfather from the bottom of your heart?

Or, is there really such a "behind the scenes"?Among them, are there really people who have direct contact with the "behind the scenes" instead of all the staff being instigated and used?

When they make a choice, they are tantamount to answering the question by default.

——There is indeed a mastermind behind the scenes, and they are not familiar with each other.

The most familiar ones have already been voted out by them, and the rest are of course unfamiliar; even if they might be familiar at first, they will not be familiar again after today.

Even if the other party has the cheek to contact them, even if the other party is magnanimous and chooses to let the past go, there is still a grudge in the hearts of both parties.

Although the purpose of the other party is to attack the prestige and authority of the godfather, and to alienate the relationship between the mercenaries and the organization.

Then the godfather will naturally use the same method to fight back against him.

He wants to alienate the relationship between the opponent and the mercenary, the relationship between the opponent and the organization, and also attack the reputation and authority of the opponent.

... As for what Bigge said about "protecting the reputation of the mercenaries", it was not the godfather's priority.

After all, the godfather is actually not familiar with these mercenaries.

Not to mention that they are like a family, at least it can be said that they are meeting for the first time.

It can only be said that objectively sweeping out the conspirators who plotted against the mercenaries is naturally tantamount to protecting the mercenaries.

There is also a windfall that belongs to yes.

"So, there's really only one problem now."

The godfather said softly: "How could the veil of ignorance know that I will follow you here today?"

If Bigg hadn't been there, they'd have had no excuse to find fault; and if it wasn't today, at the gates of the Veil of Ignorance...the Godfather couldn't be humiliated "in public," the plot would have been meaningless.

Hearing this, Bigger froze immediately.

He quickly explained: "It's not me, godfather..."

"Of course I know it's not you."

The godfather interrupted him directly.

Because Bigger is actually the last person who wants to come to the Veil of Ignorance.

According to his idea, he actually wanted to find Grandma Lan to buy a floating car service and take them back to the entrance of the compass area.

In this way, you can reach the base of eternal reincarnation with the fastest speed.And try not to contact other mercenaries.

He actually knew how wicked he had done.

And Godfather chose to come here, in fact, he just dropped by...

The location where the angels attacked tonight must be the place of eternal reincarnation... After all, it is impossible for them to cross the site of eternal reincarnation to attack the veil of ignorance.

He came here to ask Torvatus something.

It can only be said that it is an unexpected joy to find such a group of soft persimmons to pinch, establish a reputation, and destroy other people's conspiracy by the way.

——Compared with Russell's body, the biggest problem with the barber's body is that the "Agility" points are not enough.

Russell can cut bullets within ten meters, and can climb tall buildings without relying on any prosthetic body or equipment. His soft and light body allows him to crawl on ceilings and chandeliers in ambush for assassination, and his keen hearing can make him the first Time to capture the sneak attack in the blind corner of the field of vision.

But not the barber.

Now he is the magician's plus point, and it is still a little bit useful in this kind of empty street where he is allowed to mobilize his emotions to accumulate energy...

If someone finds him unhappy, give him a cold shot... It's a trivial matter that the "barber" vest can't be used for a month.

As a result, under this wonderful situation and almost coincidental conspiracy, he perfectly achieved his goal of standing up.

If it was Russell, he might be happy that things were going smoothly.

— but the barber is more suspicious.

This sense of contradiction made him unconsciously vigilant.

And the person who seemed to be related to this incident also appeared in front of Russell on his own initiative at this time:

"What—magnificent terror!"

Tovatus's childish voice full of joy sounded high-pitched: "What a beautiful fear!"

The godfather stopped and looked at the elf boy in a short dress.

He raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you pretending now?"

What he meant was, how dare you appear in front of people?

This is the first time those mercenaries have seen the leader of the Veil of Ignorance...

Seeing this elf boy appear, they were panicked, confused, hated, and timid...

But looking at the familiar attitude of the godfather and the other party, and the highly prosthetic transformation guard behind Tovatus, they vaguely realized something.

"Ah, stop pretending."

Torvatus said happily: "If the news I get here is good, the situation in the upper city will soon change...Walking and chatting?"

The godfather understood and broke away from the mercenary group.

He told his timid lover, "Take care of them."

"Yes, Godfather..."

The lover whose one arm is still a prosthetic hand replied respectfully and fearfully.

And the godfather followed Tovatus to another hidden alley.

"There is someone who is eager to meet you. She gave me a lot of useful information in exchange, and she hopes I can introduce you."

Tovatus said casually: "Because I think it is very interesting, so I can't wait."

This is not the headquarters of the Veil of Ignorance, but outside... This means that this person is not in the same group as the Veil of Ignorance.

The other party may even be a little afraid of the methods of the Veil of Ignorance, so they dare not enter the other party's base.

But Tovatus is not such an easy talker.

... Who could it be?

After seeing the other person's face clearly, the godfather stopped suddenly.

It's not so much stopping...it's more like freezing.

Because of the woman who appeared in front of the godfather.

It was the one who sent the posthumous letter to Qunqing, who he thought had died last night——

Blue Robin's ex-girlfriend.

Morgan.

Chapter 31 Dialogue Across Time

At this moment, the barber tried his best to control his expression... so that he didn't look out of control.

The surging mood belonging to the simulated personality "Blue Robin" is like a beach at high tide at this moment.

The forts, footprints, and crawling crabs that were originally left on the sand were all submerged and washed by the high tide sea water at this moment.

—that is the tide of joy.

Reunion, return.

As for the anger of being deceived and wasting emotions, just like the light footprints on the sand, it was washed away in an instant.

But what followed immediately was panic.

Because at this moment, on the face of "Barber", there is only light makeup, which makes his outline look slightly different.

At most, when he got angry before, the anger burned the headband that tied his hair, causing his long hair in a ponytail to hang behind his shoulders... making his aura more mature and gloomy at the moment.It looked like he was going to summon the Electronic Terminator Dragon.

This may be able to hide the truth from people like Tovatus who are not familiar with "Blue Robin".

With Morgan's familiarity with blue songbirds, she must be able to recognize her identity.

...But if this is the case, wouldn't he have revealed his identity in front of Torvatus?

And he was really worried about Morgan's situation.

He would go to Hei Li and Grandma Lan to ask about these things precisely because he wanted to get involved.Now that Morgan himself appeared in front of him, how could he turn his head away at this moment and turn a blind eye?

But at this moment, the barber suddenly noticed...the unusually clear tiredness on Morgan's face, which even made her look a little dazed.

That's not physical fatigue.

but mental exhaustion.

…like when you wake up on a Monday morning.

And when she saw herself, she didn't have such stirring emotions as "suddenly", "moved", "confused", and "shocked" in her eyes.

It's like just completing a repetitive job.

Like it wasn't the first time she'd seen "The Barber."
