Returning to his room, Snow tore open the beautifully sealed envelope and took out the letter paper inside——
"Dear Mr. [Crown]:"
"During my mission in Backlund, I attracted the attention of the pale saint Katarina, and some conflicts occurred. Thanks to the clone you left behind, I was able to escape unscathed, but I can feel,
The other party has already targeted me."
"I must admit that my own strength is not enough to deal with her. If possible, I hope to get your help."
"[Beautiful] Yours sincerely."
…
"Tsk, tsk, Triss is dishonest!" Snow shook the letter in his hand and turned it into a handful of fly ash, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. He knew very well that Triss's appearance would arouse Catalina's anger.
Although he was paying attention, he still sent Triss out because he was sure that Catalina wouldn't do anything.
Because Triss herself is not important, what is important is the original witch's ring, and that ring had already been recovered by the witch sect during the Backlund Great Smog.
Now that the Witch Sect has a cooperative relationship with Qiao San, after meeting Triss, Catalina will definitely attack her immediately, but as long as she gets through this hurdle, Catalina will know that Triss is now Snow
His subordinates will naturally not act rashly - at least not until the cooperation with Qiao San is over.
After all, it is not a secret among high-end circles that Snow singles out the incarnation of the Eternal Sun God. Catalina, a Sequence Three who is famous for her stubbornness, has to consider the consequences if she wants to touch Triss.
Now Triss will write this letter, which is to give Katarina some eye drops. Well, maybe it will also give her a sense of progress.
"My popularity in Backlund is enough to attract Catalina's attention." This is probably how it feels.
Shaking his head slightly, Snow did not rush to reply. In fact, he was very satisfied with Triss's "sense of crisis". After all, with Catalina chasing after her, Triss would stare at the position of the demigod more and more anxiously.
After all, Adelina and her male-female struggle are just Snow's provocation in the final analysis. Faced with the choice of potion, if both of them can resist choosing, then this conflict will naturally be resolved.
.
But when one party desperately wants to be promoted, this involution cycle will really start to turn.
…
In the Backlund Bridge area and in a gloomy alley.
Xio, who was wearing flat shoes, looked around cautiously, wondering if there was something wrong with the witch lady.
"Not bad, I am getting more and more experienced."
As a deep male voice sounded, a figure walked out of the darkness around the corner. Looking at this man wearing a gold mask who looked taller and taller than usual, Xio couldn't help but feel a bit of resentment in his heart.
"Why did you contact me urgently?" Xio asked proactively, and was ready to pray to Mr. Fool at any time, but the man in the golden mask showed no hostility and just said calmly:
"Frankly, I didn't expect you to find such a channel."
"I don't know what you're talking about." Xio frowned, her back tensed slightly, and she was suddenly glad that she was wearing flat shoes that were more suitable for escaping today.
"No need to doubt, I know your background very well." The golden masked man took a deep breath and shook his head slightly:
"Actually, you don't need to seek the truth. I know that this is the motivation for you to persist in the tasks related to Viscount Stepford, but my personal suggestion is to let go of this matter. With your current sequence and ability, it is enough for you to
My mother and brother can live a good life, don't worry, no one will come to trouble you. And if you want to persist, I can't guarantee what will happen."
Xio, who could hear some sincerity in the other party's words, felt that it was difficult to control her emotions, and immediately blurted out:
"Who are you anyway?"
"I'm just an ordinary mid-level Extraordinary." The man in the gold mask smiled, "You may not know that the position of Chief of Palace Guards has the corresponding authority of MI9, which is equivalent to the deputy director responsible for the royal family.
When your father was still alive, I was his subordinate and received help from him in all aspects. After his death, I was excluded from the core of power of MI9 because I made no mistakes and did not know any secrets. Ha,
You see, I can only be responsible for you peripheral intelligence personnel."
Having said this, the man in the golden mask sighed:
"Your father has helped me too much, so after I recognized you, I deliberately made you a subordinate intelligence officer to provide you with some help within the scope of my authority. However, I have my own family and
In my own life, I cannot do anything too dangerous or take too high risks for you."
"I originally planned to help you get a copy of the judge's potion formula, and then tell you these words to advise you not to accumulate merit and seek promotion, but I didn't expect that you actually approached that gentleman."
Xiu was a little dazed for a moment, her lips moved slightly and said:
"My father, what kind of person is he?"
When the man in the golden mask heard this question, his tone was a bit sad: "He is a truly heroic, noble, and notarized nobleman, but he is not that perfect. He is impulsive, eager, and irritable..."
"Thank you." Listening to the other party's description, Xio took a deep breath and finally uttered just one word. The man in the golden mask looked at her and understood that he might not be able to persuade her, so he said helplessly:
"Forget it, I will help you get the judge's formula. As for the rest, I don't know and I don't want to know, but I want to remind you that the gentleman's identity is very dangerous. Joining his command may be far more difficult than you think.
It’s even more dangerous…”
After saying that, the man in the golden mask just waved his hand, indicating that Xio could leave.
When Xio's back gradually disappeared, a voice suddenly floated out from the darkness:
"Why wasn't she asked about Viscount Stratford?"
The man in the golden mask paused slightly, and after a brief silence, he answered: "Because it's meaningless."
Having said this, without waiting for the voice to speak again, he continued:
"You should have read the information about that gentleman. Now that Xio has joined that man's service, it is beyond the scope of what you and I can explore. What's more, you should know His Majesty the King's attitude towards that gentleman better than I do.
, we are all just little people, in this kind of factional struggle, we can just do our own thing, or do you want to participate in it on a deeper level? "
"Hmph..." The misty voice was obviously a little angry at his subordinate's unkind words, but he didn't say much.
The situation today is so chaotic. After MI9, which was originally balanced, joined a new foreign faction, although there was no clear reshuffle, the rights in all aspects have changed. Now it wants to dig a hole for that person.
There are many people, but they are afraid of the other party's strength. Everyone is looking for a suitable opportunity, but obviously, the man in the golden mask does not intend to become cannon fodder to lead this opportunity to appear.
