It's pitiful, but there are so many pitiful people on this earth.
If you cannot actively save yourself in difficult situations, no matter how much help others give you, it will be useless and they will not be able to help you all the time.
Gertrude struggled throughout her life, and even planned to fight against the remnants of the Witch-King in the end.
But now she realized that her struggle was useless and wanted to cling to someone else's power instead.
And the kneeling posture was completely caused by the evil influence of some people.
Although there is no evidence, Chen Xiu has decided to blame the accident on Miss Arturo.
Although given Gertrude's little remaining dignity and integrity, it is not impossible for her to make up her mind to do such a shameless thing.
Chen Xiu could only be thankful that he was wearing a vest and a mask when he appeared this time.
"Unfortunately, my true self is not here."
"Even the Ruins of Time doesn't have a fixed location on this land."
Chen Xiu looked down at Gertrude calmly, watching her wolf tail, which had been raised high, gradually droop down, and she looked extremely lost.
Gertrude didn't think that the other party was deceiving her. She felt that with Chen Xiu's identity, there was no need for him to consider her feelings at all.
She was just going all out to give it a try, and she didn't think she would be 100% successful. In fact, failure was normal.
Lord Cyclopes had given her some face, and if she continued to pester him, she would only become annoying.
"Stand up."
Chen Xiu picked up the windbreaker and put it on Gertrude.
"I won't help you solve the crisis directly, I will just show you a way forward."
"You should be familiar with the situation in the city. The people Count Reina is looking for are in the room across from you right now."
Gertrude tugged at her windbreaker and listened quietly to Chen Xiu's words.
"There's also a Cyclops there. He's my junior. If you work with him, you'll be able to completely shake off the shadow of the past."
As Chen Xiu spoke, he placed some information about the space shock defense array on the table.
"Miss Gertrude, may you be reborn."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xiu's figure was shaken and disappeared like a dream bubble.
Outside the window, flying feathers streaked across the night sky, the stagnant pendulum swung with meticulous precision, and the sticky air suddenly began to flow again.
After receiving the signal, Mostima removed Gertrude from her ability range and restored her to normal.
Gertrude only felt a flash before her eyes, and the surroundings suddenly became bright and smooth.
If she hadn't felt cold, she would have thought it was just a dream.
Without bothering to put on her windbreaker, Gertrude grabbed the spell information on the table and quickly read through it.
Before coming here, the remnants of the Witch King had inferred that the remains on Reina Territory's main spell tower might be space-related spells, and now it turns out to be true!
Gertrude was completely relieved.
As long as I have this thing, I will be able to complete my mission this time.
However, since the remnants of the Witch King have forced him once, there will definitely be a second, third, or even more times.
Gertrude shuddered at the thought of her own dark, miserable and hopeless future.
Therefore, we must find a way to escape as soon as possible!
In this case, the most useful method is to fake death in an accident.
Gertrude looked at the information in her hand and a plan suddenly emerged in her mind, but she couldn't do it alone.
In that case, it’s time to follow Master Cyclopes’ instructions and visit the room across the way.
Unexpectedly, the wanted criminal that Count Reina was determined to catch at the cost of martial law was hiding in the mansion.
But isn't that Arturo's room? Are they in the same group?
Come to think of it, Arturo was indeed hesitant about his commission at first, but then he suddenly agreed.
Moreover, she took the initiative to choose the room she wanted to stay in. Now it seems that she did so in order to meet up with someone.
Gertrude thought as she put her usual clothes on her curvy body.
Of course, there are also the descendants of Lord Cyclopes, and these are the people he needs to pay the most attention to and get close to.
The reason why Lord Cyclopes came to see her, apart from the Witch King's reasons, must be for his own descendants.
At present, it seems that although the two parties have different goals, there are indeed areas for cooperation in the process.
Before leaving the room, Gertrude glanced at the silent communicator on the table.
In the end, I still carried it with me.
Before completely getting rid of the remnants of the Witch King, we still have to be cautious.
At the same time, Arturo was pinned down by Chen Xiu again, but this time he was pinned against the wall.
The slender female body was pressed against the cold wall, one arm was tied behind her back, and the innocent-looking Sakota girl's eyes were full of grievance.
"Tell the truth! Was it you who did this just now?"
"Didn't I do everything you said? By the way, was the future just now real, or did you make it up?"
"Of course it's true." Chen Xiu said unhappily, "I've never met Gertrude before. How could I fool her with something I made up? Also, don't change the subject!"
Although the prophetic ability was not used, how can it not be considered a prophecy after seeing the relevant plot?
Of course, he only provided a rough framework, and the specific details were guided and completed by Arturo.
So, the future that Gertrude sees is not as detailed as the one that Arturo experiences.
Chen Xiu pressed Arturo's butt hard, causing her to grimace in pain.
Mastema looked at these two noisy clowns and sighed softly.
It seems that it won’t be boring anymore in the future, it may even be noisy.
"I really didn't guide Miss Gertrude's final behavior!"
Arturo cried out in injustice and kicked Chen Xiu's leg backwards with weak movements.
"Huh? When did I say that the problem lies here?" Chen Xiu instantly caught the flaw revealed by Arturo.
Arturo paused in his struggle and resistance, feeling the pressing gazes from behind him, and instantly broke out in a sweat.
"Well, after all, that behavior was really outrageous! Even I was shocked..."
The Sakta girl argued stubbornly, but Chen Xiu didn't want to listen to her nonsense anymore.
Just as the slap was about to fall, there was a knock on the door.
Chen Xiu had no choice but to give up and write down the account first.
Although he already knew that the visitor was Gertrude, he still had to perform the whole act.
While Arturo was opening the door, Chen Xiu and Mostima went to the inner room of the guest room and sat down.
Soon, Arturo led Gertrude in.
Chen Xiu spoke first.
"Miss Gertrude, right? I already knew you were coming."
Gertrude looked at Chen Xiu carefully and inexplicably felt that he was similar to Lord Cyclopes in some ways.
But I didn’t think much about it. Since he was a younger generation, it was normal to have a blood relationship.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Gertrude."
"Under the guidance of Lord Cyclopes, I have come to seek cooperation with you all."
Looking at Gertrude's serious expression, Arturo glanced at Chen Xiu with a playful smile.
The self-introduction session ended quickly and everyone quickly entered into the formal action discussion session.
Chen Xiu smiled and said, "Arturo, come over and sit down and talk with me."
Arturo shook his head decisively: "It's okay, I like standing."
Chen Xiu didn't make things difficult for her, otherwise he would have pressed her down on the chair and pressed her hard.
Gertrude placed the spell information on the table and said straight to the point, "I want to blow up the main spell tower in Reina Territory!"
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"You speak first." Chen Xiu gestured.
Although it is different from my original plan, it doesn’t prevent me from listening to it first.
"I'm quite knowledgeable in energy induction and deflection. With some information, I can figure out which part of the spell is still hanging on the main tower. With a few adjustments, I can use spatial vibrations to instantly demolish the entire tower."
"Of course, in the end, it's up to you to activate this remaining spell."
"And I will use this disaster to fake my own death and escape!"
Gertrude told him all about her plans without reservation.
Compared with Chen Xiu's method of minimizing the impact, this approach is much simpler and more brutal.
As long as the main magic tower is demolished, the city defense of Reina County will be completely paralyzed and they will be able to leave.
Chen Xiu thought about it and felt that he could combine his plan with Gertrude's.
Let the remnants of the Witch King launch the attack and let them take the blame.
The other three all expressed their agreement, and the plan was passed unanimously!
"So, where can we find the remnants of the Witch King? Or have you found anything yet?"
Gertrude asked the same question as Mostima had asked her, and received the same answer.
"What!? Rune and Bert are both remnants of the Witch King? Rune is even the Voice of the Queen!?"
Poor Miss Gertrude was once again broken down, and in a rage she tore apart her aristocratic elegance.
For her, the butler and the chief guard were the people she trusted the most.
But he didn't expect that they were the ones who had been threatening him all along!
"Leave it to me! I'll make sure they get to the tower when the time comes!"
Gertrude clenched her fists, her wolf eyes burning with cold anger, as if she was ready to devour anyone.
She had been through too much tonight and was obviously not in a very good mental state.
Arturo gently plucked the strings, trying to calm her down.
But he was interrupted by a sudden rustling sound.
Gertrude sneered, took out the communicator, and decisively pressed the answer button.

"Gertrude Strollo, you have delayed too long."
A slow, stern, old voice came from the communicator, carrying with it the oppressive feeling of a superior coming to call for punishment.
"The deadline is approaching, and we still haven't obtained the remnants of the Reina Territory's main magic tower. Do you think that by killing your loved ones and taking the position of head of the family, you can escape the will of His Majesty the Witch King?"
"Sir, please calm down! I've been trying to get closer to Count Reina, but he doesn't seem to appreciate it."
Gertrude clutched the communicator with an expressionless face, and calmly squeezed out a broken trembling sound from her throat.
"Please...please give me some more time! I will definitely get what you want!"
It has to be said that Gertrude is indeed gifted in acting.
If I hadn't been looking at her like this, who would have thought that her expression and voice would be so disjointed at this moment.
The old butler had no idea that his identity had been exposed, and the relationship between the prey and the hunter had been reversed.
He heard the same fear and timidity in the countess's voice and didn't notice anything wrong.
