our family is gone

Chapter 301 Infighting
"Who!" The old woman seemed a little terrified. Why did the Roma send this kind of information internally?
But old hot is always old hot, and the old woman guessed who was spreading the news through the Roma news channel after thinking about it.

Amanda's teacher is the only one who has this ability and has a reason. As the head of a department, he naturally has some internal channels.

"What does she want!"

It's not a question, it's questioning her actions.

"The message was sent before the psychic network was paralyzed. According to the information at that time, the man's degree of danger was not high. She did this to introduce external forces to disrupt the local situation without directly touching it, so as to seek holy objects. It is very suitable for deployment.”

It's strange that the woman didn't add insult to injury, but defended her opponent, but sometimes speaking is not so simple, and the real important thing comes later.

"Now that the news in the empire area has been cut off, even if we arrange for people to notify it, it will take at least a month to fully cover it. I'm afraid it will be impossible for us to stop the spread of the news."

The woman first affirmed that the plan was right, but turned around and crucified the matter, indicating that the impact of this matter was irreversible.

"Oh, it's a big deal for me..." The old woman was a little helpless, and now the development of things was becoming more and more uncontrollable.

Originally, I had predicted that there was a high possibility of failure when I went there in person, but now the possibility of reaching a settlement may be even slimmer.

"Forget it~" the old woman waved her hand, "Go get ready."

"Do you need it over there..." The woman didn't forget her opponent, and reminded the elder when she saw that the elder didn't say anything more.

"She'll know about it, I don't need to say it."

"Yes." Seeing that the old woman didn't want to talk about it, the woman hurriedly withdrew and began to arrange travel.

At this time, only the old woman was left in the huge room. After a little hesitation, she took out her own divination equipment to divine the result of this trip.

This is their habit, and in some cases even forms a dependence.

But the result this time made her fall into panic, even if it was a sign of great evil, it didn't make her like this.

Because the results of the three divinations were different, everything seemed to be obscured by something.

When facing that man, the ability that Roma is proud of loses its effect, and he seems to be shrouded in a fog.

Also in the Omen Seeker's headquarters, another conversation using the newly restored psychic network was going on at the same time.

As the crone guessed, the elder who held a negative opinion at the elder meeting had found Amanda's teacher, the head of the Omen Seeker's secret department.

"What I used was not the direct channel of the Roma, but the secret channel within our department. Even if the news spreads, it may not be counted on us."

"But you forgot that Tamara and Amanda are both in his hands, can you guarantee that the channel for spreading the news will not be leaked?
Even if they can't guess, I'm afraid they will directly blame this matter on us, and we are also one of the few organizations that can transmit information on a large scale.

And the timing is such a coincidence, do you think it would be impossible for just this one person?Don't think too stupidly of your enemies. "

"is teacher."

"When you are working, you call it your job~"

"Yes, elder."

That's right, this elder was the woman's teacher, at least he used to be, but this relationship was severed after she became an elder.

Because according to the regulations, the moment you become an elder, you must abandon all mortal relationships and be responsible only for the Roma group.

But how could this kind of thing be broken at will, even if you don't admit it, it still has something to do with it, otherwise how could this elder appear here?
"I'm very disappointed in you..." The elder paused for a moment and said the key question.

"Although this matter is not directly related to you, the information you collected is completely useless anyway. On the contrary, it also led to a misjudgment that caused this incident. If you activate it without verifying the accuracy of the information, it must be responsible."

The woman was also a little speechless, she was at the headquarters, and the intelligence collector was Amanda, but it was her fault that she was caught.

The Elder was disappointed in her, and she was disappointed in Amanda, and in a way it was really the same.

"Don't think about the elder's seat, first find a way to keep your current position."

"Is there really no way?" The woman was a little reconciled. Ordinary members didn't know that the elder was about to retire, but those of them who had channels already knew.

There were only two or three who were eligible, but now she was pulled down directly.

"It's not impossible. Now the higher-ups are attaching great importance to this incident. If you can get the support of that man, you have a chance."

The woman frowned when she heard this. Now that her own people are still in his hands, and if she confronts the elders and directly destroys the psychic network, she is probably not going to negotiate, but to die.

Suddenly she thought of something again, and tentatively asked the elder.

"What did he say about the survival of the Roma?"

However, he never thought that the elder's expression would become solemn when he heard these words, and he would reprimand him coldly.

"It's not something you need to care about!"

"Yes." The woman immediately lowered her head. As humble as Amanda was in front of her, she was similar in front of the teacher.

But if the teacher didn't deny it, it meant that the situation really existed, but he didn't know what it was, which made the elders so nervous.

When the psychic ceremony was interrupted, the woman fell into deep thought. She understood that the key to everything was not Tamara, but the man who made the elders react in this way.

I have offended him by taking this step now, and I am afraid it is impossible to get support.

But what if the other side doesn’t get support either?
If the talks completely collapse and a war starts, then the weight of oneself as a secret department will naturally increase...

I have to say that this is a terrible idea, and I am afraid that the teacher will not support me.

This is the scary part of internal fighting. She doesn't consider how her actions will affect the entire group. She only cares that her opponent can't do any good, even if it hurts the group's interests.

…………

"She hasn't gone out at all for the past two days, and she's been messing around inside all day, but I can't see how long she can last." Tamara said that the smile on her face was uncontrollable, and she didn't hide her schadenfreude. .

On Lance's side, he was still checking the notes just now with his usual expression, and only asked after she finished speaking.

"Why do you think she didn't choose to leave here?"

When it comes to this, Tamara is a little more serious and thinks for a moment before explaining.

"First, she is not sure about the situation, her character will not act rashly, and it is safest to stay here until she gets more accurate information.

The second is that if the organization judges her to be a traitor, she knows that she can't escape without a sacred object or special means, so she might as well stay here, at least no one will attack her directly with the help of the rules.

The third is..."

As Tamara spoke, her expression became grim, and she added a possibility.

"The other thing is that she is planning to kill me these days and take away the holy object. At that time, whether it is returning to the organization or using the power of the holy object to avoid being traced is the best solution. If I stay here, she will not be able to Walk."

When Lance heard this, he didn't get the kind of understanding after the answer, but sighed.

"Oh~ why bother..."

After that, he got up and walked outside, Tamara was a little confused.

When she went out with her, she just watched Lance enter Amanda's compartment, and stopped for a while in hesitation, not knowing whether she should go in or not.

"What are you doing in here?"

Amanda showed resistance to the intruding Lance. Although she didn't dare to express it directly, it was hard to hide her disgust.

Lance looked at her haggard face, as well as her anxious and overdrawn spirit, her whole body was completely devastated, and she couldn't see the self-confidence and calmness at that time.

When Lance walked forward, this action seemed to touch her sensitive point, and she immediately became agitated,
"What are you doing! Don't come here! Come here again and I will..."

While talking, they began to find their own strange props in their hands.

But he was not afraid of Amanda's hidden tricks at all, and approached steadily with his steps, while saying something in his mouth.

"Do you think I ruined everything for you?"

It’s okay not to mention this, but Amanda’s spirit, which was already on the edge of the limit, collapsed immediately, and threw things towards him with a wave of her hand, yelling loudly.

"roll!"

Lance didn't dodge or dodge and let some debris fall on his body without being moved. He raised his hand and directly grabbed her wrist to control her.

"Enough! Is it really me who caused all this? Who broke into Hamlet? Who fought? And who designed to imprison me?"

Lance pinched her chin with one hand, raised her in front of her, raised her head and asked heavily, "Is it me who did all this?"

"You do it!" Amanda turned her head away, even if she didn't want to admit it anymore, but the facts cannot be denied.

Amanda, who had resisted fiercely just now, calmed down, but she looked more like a mess, because she knew that she could not cause harm to the man in front of her.

"Oh!" Lance laughed when he saw this, and let her go, "I have said many times, I don't like killing people, and I don't have to wait until today if I want to kill you. I came here today to ask you something."

"Are you planning to attack Tamara and snatch the sacred artifact in her hand?"

Amanda didn't speak, and rubbed her wrist with one hand. From this, she could tell that Lance planned to protect that bitch Tamara.

Originally, I relied on the organization to chase and kill the helpless fugitive Tamara, but I didn't expect that I became helpless now, and that guy Tamara actually got a backer.

This role reversal was a huge blow to Amanda.

Obviously I didn't do anything wrong, why did I become like this?

"If you don't kill me, why are you still looking for me?" Amanda looked at Lance with downcast eyes and looked a little sad. Coupled with that delicate face, I don't know how many men will give me a feeling of pity.

However, the way Lance looked at her was more about another matter. He knew that Tamara's guess was right, and that the two really knew each other.

"I don't fight in my life, and I'm easy to resolve." Now that the conversation has started, Lance doesn't hide his purpose, "I came here to find you for the same purpose at the beginning, I hope you two can put aside your conflicts and coexist peacefully. "

"Impossible!" Amanda didn't give in at all at this time, "You might as well kill..."

It's just that before she finished speaking, Lance's hand was already on Amanda's neck, and the smile on his face did not fade, and he said in a calm tone: "I love peace and have a kind attitude, but it doesn't mean I'm a soft persimmon. , it’s best to continue when I give you face, understand?”

Amanda still didn't speak, but from her tense body and terrified expression, it could be seen what she had experienced in the moment just now.

She clearly realized that just now he could break his own neck with a single force, and sometimes the fear of death is pure like this.

"Now that you have been given up by the organization, why bother obsessing over that meaningless task?" Lance pressed close to her ear, and the movement of his hand became gentle to stroke his neck, but it made Amanda's hair stand on his head. The discomfort made her swallow her saliva continuously, and her face began to flush.

"Understood~" Lance seemed to have noticed something teasing, but when he spoke, he intentionally or unintentionally blew hot air on his ears, which made Amanda tremble violently.

"Okay! I promise you to leave Tamara alone, but you must keep me safe." Amanda couldn't stand it any longer and took a step back to distance herself.

"Okay, I hope you can abide by the agreement. There are only three things, and my patience is limited."

Amanda looked at the man in front of her with an indescribably weird expression.

To be honest, since she is a search officer, she is naturally prepared to be tortured to extract a confession after being caught, or to be tortured in other ways.

But the problem is that Lance neither forced her to confess nor tortured her. Instead, he tolerated his behavior everywhere. This kind of softness made Amanda a little at a loss, and even gave up the bottom line step by step.

But there was still one thing she couldn't figure out no matter what, and finally she couldn't help but shouted out.

"Why didn't you kill me?" Amanda was puzzled, "Don't tell me you love peace, I'm not that idiot Tamara."

Amanda blocked Lance's perfunctory rhetoric in advance. To be honest, no one would believe this reason, but she still didn't forget to say a word to Tamara.

Lance didn't care much, and explained with a smile.

"Both you and Tamara are geniuses to a certain extent. Human geniuses can die on the road of fighting against evil, but they should not die in the ridiculous internal strife of human beings.

The enemy is too powerful. I must unite everyone to fight against the real enemy of mankind. I can't control other people, but I am doing my best to do this within the scope of my control.

This is my responsibility, the responsibility of a lord, the responsibility of a human being..."

Amanda froze in place when she heard this, thinking...
