December Fifty-seventh Year of the Altienne Calendar Reins-Jixia King Capital

"How is the situation in the institute? Are those guys panicked? If they don't panic, there will be a problem with the plan."

"Everyone was scared. Although they didn't say it clearly, they still can see that they are all worried about what will happen to the institute after a month?"

Satisfied with Airing’s narrative, Lancelow nodded and said, “This is the best. Those guys have always been above the top, it’s time to teach them some lessons. Don’t let them suffer, they will always Be self-righteous and don't put others in the eyes."

To celebrate the success of the project, the two met for a dinner together in the middle of the night. Since the last time they robbed a ticket from Bai Dezhao Mansion, the financial situation of the two has greatly improved. They should be able to eat some expensive dishes. However, after the discussion, they still decided to go to the small noodle stall in the alley and squat. On the street, eating hot noodles.

"However, Mr. Da Lang is smarter than I thought! The success of the plan is all your credit." Ai Ling frowned, "But, that pseudo-king...Prince Lancelow, Isn’t Mr. Dalang his guard? If he gets injured because of this, isn’t it bad?"

Two days ago, the light cannon was hard-wired, and his arm was numb. Lancelow was really annoyed by this, but he couldn't say it clearly at this time. He just said vaguely: "Don't worry about this! That person is arrogant. I'm used to it. Even the guardian of me can't see it. It's a rare opportunity to let him be taught. Don't you hate him? I just want to vent your anger now!"

Listening to this explanation, Ai Ling nodded and took a sip of hot soup from the big bowl. Her eating method is not particularly subtle, but compared with the rude efficiency of Lancelow's big mouth and quick hands, she always feels that she is eating slowly.

According to the plan, the Taikoo Modao Research Institute is under pressure from both sides, and must find out the insider as soon as possible, or design a weapon that can be used to counteract it as soon as possible. Ai Ling has never had a chance to perform in the Academy, and no one knows her talent and strength at all. The investigation of the Academy has never thought of this aspect. In other words, it should be impossible to find a traitor.

When the situation is stuck, just find an opportunity for Ai Ling to stand out and solve this problem with her strength, you can build her performance and image in the institute, and become a leader in one fell swoop, so that the plan is also That's it.

The plan itself is said to be perfect, but there are still some problems with the detailed implementation, because neither Lancelow nor Ailing are the kind of careful figures who are good at planning and planning. In fact, just to go smoothly to the present, Lance Luo already felt that God blessed him.

If you discuss with your wife and use her wisdom, you should be safer. But somehow, Lancelow was very impulsive this time, wanting to try everything on his own...

"Mr. Da Lang."

"Huh?"

"Why do you have to be like this?" Looking down at the bowl, Ailing said, "I just want to do research in the research institute. I don't want to be a leader or be above anyone else. Why do I have to Do you want to be like this?"

Simple but difficult questions, Lancelow was at a loss for a while, and he thought about it for a long time before replying slowly.

"This question is not easy to answer! Girl, because being a man is such a trouble. It's like everyone wants peace, but in the end, peace is not something the weak can have." Lancelow said: " When you are in an environment that does not give you fairness at the beginning, no matter how you pay kindness and patience, others will only laugh at you. Unless you can show your strength and shock and admire them, then respect will be Appear between each other."

"But, it's so tiring like this! Why can't you get along with kindness? Isn't that more comfortable?"

"Because of life itself, from the very beginning, it doesn't give us too many choices. Like your background and my personality, we can only go on according to the law of the weak and the strong."

Taking a shot on Ai Ling's shoulder, Lancelot laughed and said, "But at least, we still have a chance to choose one of the two. Since others do not accept our peaceful coexistence, then we will dominate the world, **** go Ride on top of these guys!"

Infected by this arrogance and domineering, Ai Ling nodded blankly. However, Lancelow, who bears her trusted gaze, is still at a loss...

The two who made the plan were talking in secret, but at the same time, another secret talk was also taking place in Jixia City. Since the strongman with celestial power declared that the institute will be bloodbathed after January, how could the senior executives of the institute not make preparations and let this madman do whatever he wants?

In addition to preparing various weapons, they also need more direct force. Although the researchers have practiced the magic of the Bai family, most of them have no combat experience. Although their cultivation is not weak, they may not be able to be useful in fighting. For this reason, several leaders of the research institute have spent a lot of hard work, finally Contact the head of the house who has been absent for many days tonight to discuss the big plan.

Facing Bai Wuji, who was naked and lying on a leather chair, with a maid serving wine in the sky beside him, several elders reported on the current preparations and countermeasures of the Institute. Headed by the uncle Bai Junze, who is the head of the family, the three of them are elders of the generation of high heads of the family. They know the true strength of the Bai family on the island of West Corca, and hope that the head of the family can express their opinions and protect the interests of the Bai family.

"We have been tolerant before, but this Lancelow is really too much trouble this time, and he directly bullied us. If it were not for the tolerance of our Bai family, could he be so arrogant in Reins ? If you don’t teach him some lessons at this time, let him understand who is the real master of Reins, I am afraid he will be lawless in the future, and will never put us in the eyes of the Bai family again!"

"Yes, Patriarch, this farce has been long enough. The commotion of the Skywalker should end here. Now that the third lady has passed away, Reins doesn’t need the queen anymore. You formally come forward, put Reins under the rule of my white family, and put an end to the family’s three hundred years of waiting!"

With your words and my words, everyone put forward their opinions, hoping that the head of the house will make up his mind. During the whole process, Bai Wuji allowed these elders to speak, flirting with the beautiful maid next to him, ignorant of those reports.

Obviously disrespectful, everyone naturally feels humiliated and angry, but they don’t appear to be outside, and they still express their opinions respectfully.

They are too aware of the fact: no matter how absurd the personality or (lack) is, the Bai family has never been a mediocre person in the position of the head of the house. If anyone has doubts about this fact, it looks like a waste Being the owner of the house, with disdain, his life is as dangerous as a candle in the wind.

Because they understand this matter, they have been able to live a long life and become one of the few remaining elders of the previous generation of the Bai family

After talking for a long time, and when finally listening to the advice, Bai Wuji took action. He got up from the recliner, took a hot towel and applied his face, after which he clapped warmly.

"Heh...good idea! If my sister is dead, why let that cheap brother-in-law take advantage? Now kill him, and then use all the strengths of the Bai family to sweep Reins, and finally inherit the Venus ancestors Let the Bai family dominate the world in one fell swoop. In this way, I will be the greatest master in the history of the Bai family!"

While speaking, Bai Wuji burst into laughter, his voice seemed to be extremely open, and affected by the joyous atmosphere, the three white parents also laughed, but the more they laughed, the more they felt guilty, because they almost shed tears like this The frantic laughter came out of the laugh, completely inconsistent with Bai Wuji's usual image.

"To celebrate this great idea, let's have a toast!"

In the laughter, Bai Wuji picked up the wine bottle on the table, turned it upside down, and unceremoniously poured cold wine on the heads of the three elders.

Although the taste of the wine is fragrant and rich, in this case, I believe no one can taste it well. The cold wine liquid and the boiling anger in the heart became an extreme contrast. If it weren't for a trace of reason to try to restrain it, they all had the urge to take action to kill this ignorant junior.

Only at this time, a voice that was colder than the liquor froze their anger again.

"It's really a bunch of old and useless ugly things. They talk up and down and do things in a mess. Maybe I shouldn't persuade the eldest brother to keep you alive. Since when did the Bai family dare to question the decision to be the head of the house? ?"

Bai Wuji sat down in front of the trio, his expression on his face was not so cold as frosty, it was nothing. This is so, the oppressive aura he exudes at this moment is a hundred times stronger than every moment before. The long-lasting sense of fear reminded them of the absolute majesty of the last Bai family master, and the three of them remained silent, and were further overwhelmed psychologically.

"You keep talking about the Bai family, but what have you done for the Bai family? In the past 100 years, the Institute has neither made major technological breakthroughs nor cultivated master-class figures. The money I have earned is just Is it just to raise a bunch of **** who raise their noses and look at people and are out of touch with reality?"

"That, that's because..."

The three wanted to argue that, compared with the headquarters on the island of Corca, the Jixia branch has insufficient resources and technology, it is only natural that it will fall behind. It shouldn’t be their fault!

"Hey! Do you want to use the headquarters of Alcatraz as an excuse? But if you really have the ability, why can't you turn around and let the achievements of the branch surpass the headquarters? You seem to forget that the Bai family hates incompetent comrades , Better than a powerful enemy!"

The depth of Bai Wuji's martial arts has always been unknown to everyone, but no one has ever seen him show or practice martial arts, and it should not feel too high. In terms of strength, it should not be difficult for the three of you to join forces to kill him, but in this series of talks, a cold and Che sense of oppression slowly overwhelmed them, and they couldn't even say a word.

"Since I know that my cheap brother-in-law can run rampant in Reins because of my indulgence, why do you come to ask more? He wants to bloodbath the institute, I am not against it, because you have almost become stasis The blood should be cleaned up. If you want to survive, you can use your own strength to beat the enemy back in a month!"

Bai Wuji said coldly: "As for one thing, I'm very curious. When you encounter something like this, you don't try to deal with my cheap brother-in-law first, but come to me crying, shouldn't you... Think I’m not as scary as him, right?"

A powerful sentence that everyone couldn't answer at all. Compared to the arrogant stance they had come, they almost left with a stumbling and fleeing attitude, and Bai Wuji, who showed his attitude, looked at the back of the three elders and muttered to himself.

"Apart from Jiu Shugong who knows how to advance and retreat, there are really no elders left in the Bai family. Brother, maybe you are right. It is always troublesome to let the damned person stay!"

At the same time, he was rejected by the two camps of Daytime and Lancelot. The head of the Patriarch took on such a cold posture. The Taikoo Magic Way Research Institute can be said to be completely abandoned by those in power.

For a long time, no matter what happens outside, the Institute has always maintained a detached attitude and does not interfere with common affairs. Perhaps because of this, the researchers have developed a mentality of superiority, but now, a strong storm has finally blown into the research. Inside the courtyard, everything was swept wildly.

After the three elders informed all the senior staff of the master’s answer, the last hole card they could rely on was also lost. It felt like being sentenced to death directly. Researchers of the middle and lower classes, although they don't know these inside stories, saw the elders who were full of trust and inscrutable appearance, suddenly fell heads down, as if they had been hit hard, of course they were even more pessimistic about the future.

We are all stepping up the development of various weapons, hoping to come in handy. There are three goals for the effort: to find the traitor, to create a weapon that can destroy the orbital light cannon, and...the weapon that can kill the Prince Lancelow.

The three goals have not progressed for a while. Researchers are not detective talents, and the scope of investigation is limited to researchers. It’s okay if only the equipment is outflowing, but since the day trip party can master the technology that is better than the research institute, who would have thought that the culprit is only a trash girl in the research institute?

In particular, when continuous investigations failed to get results, the elders pointed out the suspect's origin directly at the headquarters of Alcatraz Island, and therefore gave up continuing investigations.

In the process of making the weapon to destroy the daylight, everyone knows that the orbital light cannon is now located in a virtual high altitude that is difficult to see with the naked eye and difficult for humans to reach. Even if you use the most powerful Chaos Fire Crossbow, to destroy it, you must have the technology to send the Chaos Fire Crossbow there, but...

"How can it be said that there is? That is the technology of long-range ballistics! If you can do this, you can directly attack Bailu Cave or Daxue Mountain with a chaotic fire crossbow!"

Every researcher knows the difficulty of this matter, and the more in-depth review, the more they are surprised by the extremely high technology of the think tank behind the day trip!

There is no need for a huge building tens of feet high, and no thrusters that fall off in sections. With a simple launch pad, an orbital light cannon can be accurately delivered to the target.

It is also a chaotic crossbow, but the other party has mastered the technology to automatically clean up radioactive energy with microorganisms. It is not only the design and assembly of the utensils, but the wide range of aspects involved is simply appalling.

If the other party is an organization or group, there is a great possibility that the other party far surpasses the Bai family in excavating the archaic relics, so it can have this all-round transcendence. If the other party is only one person, it is not To say that he is a genius is undoubtedly more like an Almighty God.

Now, the common question in the minds of researchers is: How many centuries is the other party’s technology ahead of the research institute?

Anxiety and loss have directly led to misjudgment. I have always believed that I am standing at the top of the Primordial Demon Path, and that I am the best human being. This elite self-confidence is suddenly shattered, and it is not so easy to calm down. Researchers We are now like walking into a bottomless maze, with no way out.

Fortunately, after the siege war that day, although the daytime attacks continued, at least there has been no celestial war. Asked Hante to send out the required military expenses, so that Tianxing had to use this part-time guard as the last weapon. On the other hand, because the rail cannon fired randomly, it affected Hante, which caused him to excuse his injuries and begged. In addition to a sum of medical expenses, I took the opportunity to increase the price of each attack.

Without the cooperation of the heavenly master, during the day, the army can only attack with the orbital light cannon. However, every quarter of an hour, the orbital light cannon will fire out of control, consuming the energy stored for a whole day. While it was out of control, the Jixia garrison with powerful enchantment guardianship and adequate defense facilities was able to minimize the damage; however, the entire army was exposed to the light cannon attack on one side during the day, and it fell to the big frieze.

In the end, in order to avoid distrust of the soldiers in the coach, the only way to go during the day was to suspend the attack.

Undoubtedly, he has a powerful weapon and a master of heaven, but how to use these two things together to maximize the effect on the battlefield, this matter has fully tested his talents.

In Jixia City, the residents laughed at themselves all day long. After living in Jixia City for so many years, they have seen a lot of ups and downs, but they have never been as exciting as this month. They are struck by lightning every day.

The light cannon that hits directly from a high place in the void seems to have thunder and lightning. If it weren’t for the propaganda of Jixia Academy to let the people know that this was a weapon used during the day trip, some people would mistakenly think it was a god. The downfall of the heavenly punishment caused unnecessary panic.

The battle continued to stalemate, and Lancelow also took the opportunity to pressure the Academy. The atmosphere on both sides was tense. As the month of January got closer and closer, Lancelow appeared extremely hot, even though the anger was more than 90%. It's acting, but the destructive power that appears to the outside is really extraordinary. Others can't guess his inner thoughts, and naturally they are deeply shocked.

"With a one-month deadline, you guys don't think I'm joking! If you can't give me an answer at that time, I will **** razing your rotten research institute to the ground!"

Following this sentence, Lancelow cut the gate of the institute into two. This move caused the relationship between Lancelow and the researcher to be almost completely broken, but no one dared to doubt his determination to retaliate bloodily against the research institute.

In this atmosphere, Lancelot greeted him in the first New Year after coming to Reins in Jixia City.

The atmosphere is not bad. Although the external situation is unstable, the common people can still have a safe and happy New Year. This has a considerable factor, thanks to the abundant supplies and grass in Jixia City. The reason for not letting the people feel the effects of the war.

However, due to the chaotic political situation in Reins, the Ivory White Pagoda failed to host many rituals as in previous years. This year's New Year activities were inevitably cancelled. The Ivory White Pagoda was even more deserted than ever before. .

"New year and new weather, it's worth a drink!"

Lancelow sat on the steps of the Ivory White Tower gate, watching the crowds and the lights lit by every household, smiling and drinking from a pot.

With the current shortage of funds and staff in Ivory White Tower, it is of course impossible to hold any grand celebrations. Xue has made a proposal, or should we find some jugglers to hold a small celebration banquet? This proposal was rejected by Lancelow. Because there is obviously no money, it will not be used for such extra expenses. If you want to hold a luxurious banquet, you will have a chance after you have the power of Reins. Xiaocao understood her husband's intentions, so she followed goodness and let all servants and guards go home on New Year's Eve. As a result, the ivory white pagoda became a cold and empty palace.

"Um...it feels weird, it seems to be back to when I first came to Reings..."

Lancelow said slowly, holding the hip flask. I still remember that when I first entered Jixia City, due to my bad image, all the servants in the ivory white pagoda rushed away. He had the title of prince, but he didn't even have half a waiter. It was the biggest joke of the careerist.

Now I feel the same. However, at that time, Nier and Gengoro were still by my side. By comparison, I felt much lonely at this moment.

On the Spring Festival, I would lie down on the steps of the palace and drink, watching the passers-by. I must be the first person in the history of the King of Reings. That feeling is not lonely, and there is a strong downfall. sense.

This feeling...very cold.

But this kind of cooling is not a bad thing, because it allows you to pull yourself out of the daily things that are too busy and let your head wake up. Think about what kind of thing you are? Think about what you have done these days? What should I do?

Senior brother Wang Wu likes to float high in the sky in the middle of the night, sleeping with a sea of ​​clouds and the moonlight. I don't know if it is to feel this coldness?

Thinking about these thoughts, Lancelow smiled slightly, then raised his throat and took another sip. At this time, the people who should have appeared have also appeared. Stepping on a completely silent step, Xiaocao appeared lightly, carrying a bamboo basket with food, and sitting beside her husband.

"Youxue ran out for a drink after taking the money. Now there are only two of us left in the white pagoda of ivory!" Still dressed in the usual suits, Xiaocao was behind in his work. Come here to celebrate the new year with my husband.

Although he has not officially become a king, it is definitely unprecedented for a king like Lancelow to sit at the gate of the palace drinking wine on New Year’s Eve. Instead, the two who should wear the crown of the king as the king and the former queen respectively Husband and wife would sit on the steps together like begging. If recorded in the annals of history, this is not only unimaginable, it is simply... Reins’ national shame!

In fact, because the two of them squatted on the steps were too shabby, some passers-by really didn't know the situation, and they inadvertently threw a copper coin or two when they passed by.

However, the couple didn't feel embarrassed by their situation, but went on a picnic on the street quite contentedly.

"(Is missing) this pot of plum wine? This is a treasure in the underground wine cellar!"

"Ah...then please help me pour a glass! Actually, it doesn't need to be so troublesome. My tongue is not so sensitive, and I can't tell the fineness of the good or the bad!"

The weather was extremely cold, snow was falling in the sky, and there was no luck to resist. White snow slowly covered the two of them. Lancelow and his wife made fun of each other and poured the plum wine into the glass, and the two divided them in half.

"The cup is for you. I can drink it like this..."

Holding her husband’s thick palms, tapping the plum wine with her index finger, Xiaocao sips Lancelot’s fingertips, licking the wine on her head, the affectionate movements, in each other’s eyes, are a burst of warmth that makes our hearts comfortable .

"Hey! Will ghosts get drunk too?"

"Um... as long as I want to get drunk..."

Quite ingenious answer, Xiaocao diverted his eyes, Lancelow followed her gaze and glanced at the corner of the street. It was a small noodle stall, and the honest-looking shop owner was putting freshly made dim sum into the steamer; the kind-looking proprietress was busy wrapping the hot noodles in oil paper and handing them to the customers They.

Both of them are quite old. The gray hair and eyebrows are now coated with another layer of snow white because of the flour; the work is not easy, due to fatigue and the heat of the steamer, sweat beads on their foreheads, but their faces are always smiling, showing In addition to their joy at the moment, even though the two are busy with work, they occasionally look at each other in their free time, always showing a kind smile.

Staring at the husband and old woman, Xiaocao smiled slightly. It was a very happy smile. In Lancelow's eyes, he could understand what his wife was thinking. He stretched out his hand and held it. Wife's hand.

"Hey! Don't be too envious of others! We can do this one day too!"

"I'm not envious! Aren't we already like this?" Leaning against her husband, Xiaocao smiled and said: "I, can be with you husband like this, doing all this mess I'm already satisfied with the stupid thing!"

When he said "a mess of stupid things", Xiaocao's tone was different. Lancelow's heart moved and looked at his wife, and when he met the smiley eyes, he knew that his wife already knew what she had done recently. Plan to draw.

"Why do you laugh like this? What do you know?"

"Although I am not quite sure what you want to do now, my husband, I can feel that you are working on some plans of your own." Xiaocao said: "You are not very interesting, we are two. Husband and wife, if you don’t tell me any plans, I’ll be very worried...Well, maybe you really hide a woman outside and want to marry in and be your second concubine, right? That’s too much! You yuan The wife is not yet cold!"

Lancelowton found it difficult to answer such a talk. In fact, every time he talks with his wife, he is always at a disadvantage and doesn't know how to stand firm.

"(Lack), I plan to..."

"You don't have to explain to me in particular! I believe in your choice, and I want to support your decision." Xiaocao smiled: "What's more, we are indeed encountering a bottleneck now. If your husband can break through it, The way, that's great!"

Xiao Cao is telling the truth. Since the outbreak of the Reins Civil War, whether Lancelow or the day trip, both sides have waited for a deadlock. In terms of strength, both sides have an overwhelming trump card. Daytime has an army of half a million, while Lancelot is relying on his own celestial master.

Surely looking at the situation of the battle, the 500,000 army and the elite group are quite powerful capital, but when the two factors are isolated and hostile to each other, there is no decisive winning factor.

The side that travels during the day always suffers from the lack of talents to hold the lineup, even if it succeeds in breaking through the grassland, if Lancelow insists not to abdicate, then victory will not make much sense. To put it more extremely, if Lancelow is forced into anxiousness, let him give up his promise to the palace elders and use the power of heaven to kill him. Although he may not be able to single out the 500,000 army, but at least kill the day trip. Not a problem.

Lancelow is limited to the dilemma that there are no resources except for the power of heaven. If there is no way to establish his own retainer group, even if he kills the day trip and repels the enemy, he is still sitting on an empty ivory white tower, and another opposition leader will soon unite the Reins. Rebellion, to no avail.

To break this stalemate, one is to let Tian Xing master more celestial masters, and after breaking through Jixia, completely overwhelm Lancelot with strength; second, Lancelot establishes his own power and defeats the day. After the trip, he can take over his power in an organized way.

Xiaocao has some plans for this situation. However, it is rare for her husband to take the initiative to take the initiative to do something, but he might as well postpone his work for a while and see what amazing plans he has. , It's not a good way!

"However, I am very happy: because at least you never thought about transferring me too..."

The meaning of Xiaocao's finger was naturally Lancelow's move to move Nier away deliberately before this battle. If Nier is still there, there are two celestial masters sitting under the grass. Even if Hante cooperates with the orbital light cannon attack, he can’t cause such a big threat. Furthermore, if Nier doesn’t improve the martial arts in the Jixia Academy. The students and aristocrats who took away, now maybe uncontrollable turmoil erupts.

In addition to these, Lancelot seems to have other plans. Xiaocao intends to watch the changes and see what his husband has.

"You are allowed to stay because the wife is responsible for worrying about her husband's affairs." Lancelow said: "As for my old girl's problem, leave it to other men to worry about it! By the way, Nier's How long will the team be in contact with Goro and others?"

"Um...probably ten days!"

"Um...Is the dead ghost of the research institute coming to ask for money again?"

In order to cope with Lancelow’s pressure, the Taikoo Magic Way Research Institute used a slippery excuse in the past two days: It is not a technical problem to create weapons that can match the Orbital Light Cannon. It just requires extremely large funds. Prince Slow was able to hand in the sixty thousand gold coins he had promised as soon as possible, and he believed that he would be able to produce counter weapons as scheduled.

A discerning person can see that this is just an excuse for procrastination, but if Lancelow can't pay, the responsibility is only with him.

"Yes, how should I answer them this time?"

"Tell them that I will hand over the money to them in eleven days, so don't let it go!"

Seeing her husband's confident smile, Xiaocao knew that he must have done something amazing again, but this time, apart from the other researchers, did he also include himself?
