"You want to go down there yourself? That's too dangerous!"
In the operations meeting room, Aarons explained his ideas to the female members present.
Since Zhuying and Yalu couldn't leave the pilot room at the same time, Yalu, who usually didn't care about other things, was not present - but the reactions of others were already intense enough.
"I haven't been out on the ground for a while, so I'll take this opportunity to go for a walk. When I'm away, Claire will take over the command of the ship."
"Master, are you totally not going to discuss safety issues with us?"
"An Yi is still on standby down there, and I'll take two more people down with me, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
Aarons' arrangement was actually quite reasonable, and even Xia Ye couldn't find any reason to refute it.
Even if there is a problem, the White Bird special forces can quickly land on the ground to provide support. With two people protecting him, Aarons can also avoid being killed without warning.
So after being angry for a while, Xia Ye nodded and agreed to this plan.
"Who do you plan to take with you? Everyone is free now, you can choose anyone."
"Then let's go with Teacher Jiangyue and Qianyun this time. I just need them to help me with something."
Aarons made his choice without hesitation, and it was obvious that he had already made up his mind, so the others had no complaints - but the two people who were chosen were a bit surprising.
Jiang Yue, who has been busy developing new weapons recently, never expected that Aarons would choose her, and Mo Qianyun, who had always remained calm, was also a little surprised.
"Marquis, what are your plans?"
"It's just some small matters. Let's talk about it downstairs. If there are no other questions, we can adjourn the meeting. I still need to get some clothes."
People who can use fighting spirit or magic can use these powers to keep their body temperature constant, so they don't need to worry too much about the performance of their clothes.
But Aarons doesn't have this ability, he can only use more primitive methods to protect himself.
"Then my Lord, I will accompany you to choose the things you will need."
"Thank you for your help. Teacher Jiangyue, if you are ready, please go downstairs and wait for us."
Aarons didn't know what Mo Qianyun had learned before, but he clearly felt that this female swordsman who was once deeply trapped in self-doubt has now completely transformed into a dignified knight.
Of course, this is definitely a good thing.
……
"So now can you tell me the reason, Marquis? Why did you bring us two down here?"
Aarons and his two companions quietly landed on the ground in a stealth landing craft specially used by the special forces.
Although it wasn't snowing, the snow on the ground was already quite thick. When I stepped on it, I felt a little off balance, but Aarons didn't care too much.
"Teacher Jiangyue and Duke Oufei knew each other before, so they should be able to talk to each other at a critical moment. And Qianyun doesn't have to be my bodyguard anymore recently, so I want to talk to her alone about the future."
"You...are you not going to let me continue to follow you?!"
"No, that's not what I meant. Um... Let's go into the city first, find a place to stay, and then we can talk about it in detail."
The three people, dressed rather simply, like traveling merchants and guards, walked slowly into the main city of the Dukedom of Ophir.
This snowy city was seldom visited by travelers, so the guards merely asked Aarons and his two strangers a few perfunctory questions and then let them go casually.
"It's really warm, is this also the effect of geothermal heat?"
The temperature in the city is obviously much higher than outside. The pipes faintly visible in the gaps between the floor tiles are constantly spewing hot air out - even if it is freezing outside, there is almost no coldness in the city.
The power contained in the earth veins is so amazing.
"Most of the cities in the Dukedom of Ophir are built on the main stream of the earth, so they have enough heat to maintain a normal temperature... Most people in the empire don't even know about this."
Even though information dissemination technology is very advanced, many people still only believe in their own stereotypes and personal opinions - Aarons has experienced this in his previous life.
"That looks like a tavern. Let's go sit there for a while."
Although Aarons doesn't drink much, it doesn't mean he can't drink.
After ordering a glass of cheap muddy wine, Aarons found a place to sit down. Jiang Yue and Mo Qianyun, who deliberately covered their faces with simple headscarves, did not attract the attention of others.
Only then did they finally have the chance to talk about the previous topic.
"Actually, I've never found a suitable opportunity to ask, Qianyun, what are your thoughts on the future?"
"What do you think?"
"That's right. From now on, I may stay in the safe sky for a long time, and the opportunities for me to need protection will become less and less. So you may not have the opportunity to protect me like you do now."
Aarons came out this time not just on a whim, but was actually looking for an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the thoughts of the people around him.
Her previous wrong choices almost caused Mo Qianyun to fall into an abyss of madness from which there was no escape, and the seed of madness might still be hidden in her heart.
In this case, you have to do what you can.
"Let me make it clear first. I'm not planning to abandon you, but I hope you can tell me what you think first, and then we can make a decision together."
"Marquis, you are bullying me. Qianyun has always put all her thoughts on you. If you want her to move to another place now, it's no different from abandoning her, right?"
"No, Master... I actually have some ideas."
Jiang Yue didn't expect her apprentice to say such a thing. She was about to continue teasing him, but she was stunned.
Mo Qianyun stared at Aarons' face seriously. The light reflected from his clear and deep eyes even made Aarons feel a little guilty.
...Shouldn't I say such things?
"I am not a very smart person, and I don't know what I can do to help you besides fighting. But I also know that you don't need a knife that can't think."
"No, I didn't say that..."
"The most important thing I learned from Teacher Yayin some time ago is observation and thinking. And I have also observed you thoroughly these days and know that you no longer need the same guards as before."
Neither Aarons nor Jiang Yue had expected that Mo Qianyun's mind had grown so much.
Although everyone has always regarded her as Aarons' personal bodyguard or maid, she actually has her own will and ideas.
"So, please listen to my thoughts first."
