His body was shaken, and Ma Wei, who was looking at the horizon, asked without looking back: "Xiao Hei...what happened?"

"Last night, Maomao, who was responsible for monitoring the new experimental base, reported that a fight seemed to have broken out in the base."

Fat Orange, who was squatting on the table, said expressionlessly: "Xiao Hei, who was supposed to have regular contact last night, didn't show up, but this morning..."

"What happened this morning? I have something to say!"

"Some cats saw a cross erected outside the base, and Xiao Hei's body was nailed to it."

Clenching his palms tightly, Ma Wei asked in a deep voice: "Xiao Hei... is dead?"

"Are you angry?"

"Aren't you angry?"

"I'm fine." Fat Orange said calmly: "When Xiao Hei went out to perform an undercover mission, he was mentally prepared to be exposed, and your recent actions against the Doomsday Party have been too intensive, and you have not left any trace in the attack laboratory.

It's normal for Mr. Butler and others to be suspicious if he bets too many lives."

"Xiao Hei's death has something to do with me... Where are they now?"

"Early this morning, the new experimental base started the relocation operation. Mr. Butler wanted to run away, but the cats were watching, so they couldn't run away."

Ma Wei turned around, called Edward and Yunia directly, and prepared to leave for the outskirts of the city.

From beginning to end, he did not show too many emotional fluctuations and looked very indifferent. But only those who are familiar with him know that Ma Wei is deliberately suppressing his emotions. His emotions need to be vented, but not by yelling.

But the real...

eye for eye!

Activating the mud shadow magic, Ma Wei took Yunia and others out of the grocery store. After changing their appearance, they took the train to the town of Windsor.

When he heard the news of Xiao Hei's death, Levin was shocked and asked in disbelief: "Xiao Hei is dead? He is so smart, how could he die?"

"If I had gotten rid of Mr. Butler earlier, this situation would not have happened..." Ma Wei said coldly: "I have to bear more than half of the responsibility for Xiao Hei's death... Emma, ​​aren't you sad?

?”

Yunia, who was sitting next to her, lowered her head and ate snacks. She was not shaken by the news of Xiao Hei's death, as if she hadn't heard it.

This is a very strange phenomenon. Yunia and Xiao Hei have a very good relationship, so how come there is no fluctuation?

Not only that, Ma Wei was surprised to find that except for Yunia, Fat Orange didn't react much, and it didn't look like his brother had died at all.

The train left London and arrived in the small town of Windsor in less than half an hour. There were very few demon hunters here. So he found an alley with no one around. Ma Wei activated the Heart of the Jungle and arrived outside the new experimental base. There were already people here.

He left the building empty and was completely abandoned.

The base is just outside the town of Windsor, not far from Windsor Castle. The place is hidden and cannot be easily discovered. Even so, the cautious butler chose to move.

Just as Fat Orange said, there was a cross outside the half-built base. On the cross, a black cat corpse was nailed with long iron nails. All its limbs were broken, its head was deeply sunken, and its claws were all chopped off. It was unknown before it died.

What kind of torture I suffered...

Ma Wei stepped forward and gently stroked the hair of the corpse. A strong feeling of sadness arose in his heart. In his heart, Xiao Hei was not only a pet, but also a friend, even though Xiao Hei was of no use.

, is a spiritual comfort friend, but equally important.

"I will hold a grand funeral for you on this cold day..."

"Funeral? What funeral? Whose funeral?"

"of course..."

A familiar voice sounded in his ears. Ma Wei slowly turned around and found Xiao Hei squatting at his feet, staring at him curiously: "Master, please speak! Who are you going to hold a funeral for?"

"You...you're not dead?!" Levin was also dumbfounded, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground: "Are you a soul or an entity?!"

"Me?" Xiao Hei licked his paw: "Of course I'm not dead, meow! How could I die?"

"Then this corpse..."

"It's Xiaohei's meow!"

"?"

"Let me explain."

Seeing that Ma Wei and Levin could not understand the situation, Fat Orange said: "Since the goddess completed her first awakening, believers who are directly blessed by the goddess will gain more powerful power. Take Mao Mao as an example. In the past, Xiao Hei and I only

It can be regarded as a pet blessed by the gods, but as long as the goddess becomes a true god, we will awaken some innate power..."

"To put it simply, a cat blessed by the goddess transforms into a truly extraordinary creature, an extraordinary creature like Edward."

Ma Wei raised an eyebrow: "Xiao Hei's body is on the cross, but it is not dead. Could this be its clone?"

"No, the extraordinary power that cats have gained is multiple lives." Fat Orange said: "We can leave the 'fetus' needed for rebirth in a safe place. When the main body dies, it will be resurrected through the 'fetus', at a price

The tail is one inch shorter. When the tail is completely retracted into the body, it loses the ability to regenerate...it can be resurrected almost 9 times."

"That's right, meow..." Xiao Hei looked at himself swaying his tail and secretly felt sad: "My tail is one inch shorter, so I can only be resurrected 8 times, meow..."

Ignoring Xiao Hei who was playing tricks, Ma Wei looked at Fat Orange: "So you knew Xiao Hei was not dead?"

"I never said that Xiao Hei was dead." Fat Orange said calmly: "I just told you that something happened to Xiao Hei and his body was nailed to the cross, but he is indeed still alive."

“Isn’t it true that a body is dead when it is crucified?”

"Cats are not humans! You substituted a human perspective into a cat. Who can blame you?"

"Why don't you correct me?"

Fat Orange turned his head to one side, refusing to answer the question.

Obviously, it wanted to see Xiao Hei suddenly appear when Ma Wei was heartbroken.

"Emma, ​​do you also know? If you provide strength to Xiao Hei, if something happens to Xiao Hei, you will definitely sense it immediately."

Ma Wei looked at her daughter. Yunia also turned her head like Fat Orange and said with a guilty look on her face: "Dad, you didn't ask me..."

"Master, you won't be too worried about Xiao Hei!"

Xiao Hei's eyes lit up, and he meowed behind Ma Wei: "Master, if you are worried about Xiao Hei, you can just say it directly, Meow! There is no need to be shy, Meow! Isn't that right, Master!"

"Shut up."

Xiao Hei closed his mouth, but his tail was raised high, and he happily followed Ma Wei.

Although it was a transfer, it was too hasty and could only move personnel. Mr. Butler and others did not leave too far. Instead, they hid the experts in various fields at the academic summit in Windsor Castle, while he took the pointed hat dwarf with him.

After entering the city, I probably went to find James Morea to report the situation.

The defense of Windsor Castle has been entrusted to the witchers. There are three witcher teams stationed there for a long time. There are also church bishops and saints around. Every weekend, the number of witcher teams will increase to ten. Today happens to be the weekend.

day.

"The king is holding a family dinner." Fat Orange looked at the heavily guarded Windsor Castle not far away and said, "What should we do? Are we going to launch an attack?"

In order to enhance the relationship between his family, King Rhodes IV would hold a family banquet at Windsor Castle every weekend. Unless there were special circumstances, the three princes must be present. Since Arthur was transferred back to London, he also began to attend regular family banquets.

Originally, Ma Wei planned to avenge Xiao Hei, but now it is obviously not a good time. Every Sunday, a saint will follow the witcher to Windsor Castle to protect the safety of the royal family, and London is not far away.

It's equivalent to doing something under the noses of the three goddesses of destiny. What's the difference between it and seeking death?

If you want to take action, you can only wait until Rhodes IV and others are not in the castle. At that time, there are only three teams of demon hunters stationed inside the castle, and they can easily break through.

"My suggestion is not to take action today." Fat Orange said, "Because Arthur did not attend today's family dinner."

"He's not here?" Ma Wei asked confused: "Where has he gone?"

"The Knights of the Round Table have come to London. Today is the day of the meeting. The family dinner is just a burden to Arthur, so he found an excuse to shirk... If he attacks the castle today, even if he succeeds, Arthur will be punished.

Suspicious." Fat Orange admonished: "I understand your feelings, but Xiao Hei is fine, and there are cats watching around, Mr. Butler and the others can't escape."

"Yes, brother, Fat Orange is right. Compared with the experimental base, the most important thing at the moment is the general election. It is better not to cause unnecessary problems."

After listening to Fat Orange and Levin's persuasion, Mawei stared at the castle for a while and suddenly asked: "Yannick, what do you think?"

"I have no objection." Edward said calmly: "It's just a castle that can't be defeated head-on. We can also sneak in secretly. Mr. Butler's hiding of experts in the castle was a stupid move, because the castle is under the surveillance of the church. Once exposed, the king will be killed.

It's hard to tell, and someone must be responsible for it."

"The members of the Doomsday Party are not in the castle. Even if they are discovered by the church, it cannot prove anything." Levin said: "Rhodes IV can use the kingdom as a shield and say that he kept these experts for the development of the kingdom. There is no evidence.

The church won’t say much.”

"No evidence is needed, suspicion is enough."

"Rhodes IV is already dead, so he is not afraid of being suspected..."

Levin and Edward talked about their suggestions to each other, Ma Wei remained neutral, Edward preferred to take action today, while Levin and Fat Orange suggested retreat. This was the opinion of Yunia and Xiao Hei, which was particularly important.

"Emma, ​​Xiaohei, what do you think?"

"Well..." Yunia thought seriously: "Dad, I agree with Fat Orange and Uncle Felix's proposal."

"Why?"

"Because Xiao Hei is fine!" Yunia bent down to pick up Xiao Hei, kissed him and said, "If anything happens to Xiao Hei, we will definitely avenge him! But he is fine, then we must rationally consider the gains and losses.

Well, if we choose to invade Windsor Castle today, once discovered, a battle will inevitably break out. If something goes wrong, our existence may be exposed and the overall situation will be affected!"

"Master, I also agree with the goddess." Xiao Hei said: "The overall situation is still important! What's more, Mr. Butler is not here today, even if the laboratory is destroyed, it will be of no use!"
