Chapter 354 I’ve always been tight-lipped(1/5)
…
"Let me think about it..."
Matthew whispered to Hood.
Hood smiled and nodded:
"Of course, you can sit here for hours. They'll leave after midnight."
As he spoke, he kept silent and ate and drank in silence.
Matthew's eyes were shining, and he was quickly sorting out the context and cause and effect of this matter in his mind——
The first thing he thought about was.
Do you really have the right to decide this matter?
Putting aside the high-level acquiescence and potential tests.
Suppose now Matthew invites Hood to join him in stopping Alexander and others' expedition plan.
Can they do this?
The answer is obvious: they can't stop it.
As the former warden of Mount Blackos, Alexander is an out-and-out legendary. He may be a little inferior to Hera in terms of hard power, but he is definitely not something that two fifth-level mages, Matthew and Hood, can stop.
.
What's more, there are more than twenty experienced fifth-level mages behind him.
These law enforcement teams from Mount Blackso alone can cause Matthew and Hood a lot of trouble.
With the determination and attitude shown by Alexander and the Black Gold Army.
Matthew's attempt to stop them is tantamount to wishful thinking.
So if that's the case, what's the point of involving Matthew?
Matthew tried to think about the matter from a high-level perspective.
What is certain is that.
This matter should have been tacitly approved by all the great magicians or legendary mages, and even Hood's help in opening the portal was tacitly approved.
This shows to some extent.
The Seven Saints would not stop Alexander's expedition plan.
"This plan would have gone smoothly without me."
"The IOU that Suriel gave me just gave me an opportunity to get involved in this operation."
"If I had followed the line forcefully, there was a high probability that I would have directly found clues to Hood or Rapids."
"At that time, with the relationship between Hood and me, it will not be difficult to figure out the ins and outs of all this..."
Matthew's mind is very clear.
He found that after removing himself, the whole sequence of events continued as before.
In fact, even if Suriel gave Matthew an IOU.
Matthew also chose to give up because he found it too troublesome.
It was while following the clue of the Necronomicon that he accidentally got involved in the expedition team's plan again.
Matthew thought about it for a while.
The two clues, the Necronomicon and the missing stolen goods, are probably things that even the Seven Saints don't know about.
The Divine Mage may know everything in the general direction.
But there are definitely a lot of things that have slipped through the cracks in terms of details.
Therefore, the current situation is really a coincidence and fate.
But look at it from another perspective.
Matthew has balanced perception and is very sensitive to changes in the elements around him.
If a person can always pay attention to the detailed changes around him and the subtle clues behind them, then naturally, he will easily become entangled with the more powerful parts of his destiny.
This is both a random opportunity.
It is also an inevitable fate.
In other words.
Matthew's appearance or not actually does not affect the overall situation at all.
"But Hood was right."
"Since this happened to me, it's up to me to make the decision."
Matthew knew it very well.
The decision he made is not very important to the group of people in front of him, to the top leaders of the alliance, or even to the world!
On the contrary, it is very important to him.
"If I choose to report to the alliance, taking the case of Ronan and Qin Wuyue losing contact for no reason as an example, it is very likely that I will be treated coldly. Not only will I push myself into an embarrassing situation, but I will also inevitably be attacked by Alexander and the Black Gold Army.
Disgusted."
"On the other hand, if I can let them go, I will most likely gain the friendship of the expedition team, and even more... Haha."
A smile flashed in Matthew's eyes.
Perhaps this was Suriel's gift to him.
This team may be able to surprise many people in the star realm!
At this moment.
Matthew finally understood Rambo's previous attitude.
These people don't regard themselves as traitors to the alliance at all!
It's just that the official can't do it in person.
They just gave themselves the identity of traitors, and the alliance officials had to pretend to want them.
Only in this way.
Only then can they legitimately go to the star realm to commit crimes without affecting the alliance itself.
Although this move to draw a clear line does not convince everyone.
But at least it can save the alliance some trouble.
Matthew felt slightly moved in his heart.
Alexander's trip was similar to Margaret's one-on-one challenge to Purgatory.
the difference is.
The latter is obviously a member of the Alliance, and quite a few devils are still afraid of it.
And Alexander and others are traitors to the alliance that everyone calls for beating.
Matthew could imagine what kind of storm they would encounter after arriving in the star realm!
"Maybe I can do something about this."
Just think of this.
Matthew suddenly stood up.
He turned and walked towards the hall:
"Can I talk to them?"
Hood's voice came from behind:
"It's not impossible, but as I said before, most of them are performing silencing rituals."
"If you want to communicate with them, you must do so in a space that guarantees closure and privacy."
Matthew stood firm and looked back:
"Do not worry."
"Absolutely secret."
Saying that, he returned to the hall.
A pair of eyes focused on Matthew again.
Alexander stood up from the ground and looked at Matthew with a smile.
However, Matthew walked around him.
He randomly selected two mages, one fat and one thin, from the crowd, and then took out the woodland staff. After obtaining their permission, he took the two of them to the Moonglade.
