Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 599: An opportunity to break the ice with Forsi

Wednesday morning, 3 Burningham Road, Hillstown.

Hobert got off the luxury carriage and looked at the small villa in front of him.

This is Dr. Allen's home, and there is a newly born "Snake of Destiny" inside.

Hobert stepped forward and entered the courtyard gate.

There were also some pedestrians on the surrounding streets, but they didn't seem to notice the luxury carriage on the roadside, nor did they notice Earl Hobert, who was very famous in Backlund at this time.

This is the benefit of being promoted to Sequence 3. As long as Hobert doesn't want to be noticed by the people around him, his "distortion" ability can spontaneously affect the thinking of people within five kilometers, so that they will not pay attention to Hobert.

They can still see Hobert, but they will think that he is an ordinary young man, and will not think of the founder of "Earl's Light".

As soon as he entered the courtyard, the servant immediately came up and asked Hobert's purpose.

After learning that this was Dr. Allen's friend, the servant entertained and asked the maid on the side to call Dr. Allen out.

After Allen saw Hobert's face, he seemed to have seen it somewhere, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen it: "Who are you?"

Hobert smiled and said: "I am your old friend. I passed by here to talk to you."

As he spoke, he "distorted" Dr. Allen's feelings, making Dr. Allen feel that the person in front of him was indeed his old friend, but he just couldn't remember his name.

The two chatted in the living room for a while. Hobert took a sip of the black tea brought by the servant, but he did not see the newly born child of the Allen family. He was not easy to ask. If he asked, it would easily make the "destiny" Snake" thought he was exposed.

In fact, the Snake of Destiny asked to see Hobert, which somewhat surprised him, but he thought it was reasonable: maybe his extraordinary ability made him realize that this meeting was related to the resurrection of a true god.

At any time, the resurrection of a true god is a major event in the extraordinary world!

After chatting for a while, Hobert stood up and left.

Allen enthusiastically walked to the door of the courtyard. When he saw Hobert's carriage driving away, he still sighed: "This guy hasn't been a guest at home for a long time. Last time..."

The last time he was a guest, he forgot when it was.

Then he seemed a little lost: Who did I receive just now?

This is the difference between "distortion" and "deception". If the target is "deceived", he will never notice that something is wrong.

But "distortion" is different. The effect can only last for a period of time, but it is difficult for the target to recall Hobert's appearance or specific information. He can sense something is wrong, but he doesn't know what is wrong.

……

Hobert took a carriage back to the Earl's Mansion. As soon as he entered the study, he received a letter from Klein's messenger.

Opening the letter, the content of the letter was roughly that Hobert's fate now seemed to be closely linked to something of very high status, and there was no way to change it.

Hobert scratched his head: The so-called "very high-status thing" may refer to the "country of disorder".

Then he lamented: It would be a bit difficult to deal with even the "Snake of Destiny".

At this moment, a picture suddenly appeared in Hobert's mind. It was a picture of a young man wearing a robe of a servant of the Church of the Mother Earth, praying.

Without even looking at his face, Hobert knew that this was the vampire Emlyn White. Perhaps he had just finished wiping the seats at Harvest Church and was preparing to go home.

"Dear Mr. Fool!" Sure enough, it was the voice of "Moon" Emlyn. He said: "Please tell the 'Emperor' that there is an earl in our vampire family who wants to talk to the 'Emperor' at eight o'clock tonight at the Moon Lake Hotel. Let’s talk about cooperation.”

Hobert smiled: It seems that the vampires are not very interested in forming an alliance, but they will not refuse to cooperate with the forces of the "founder" to fight against the "Rose School of Thought."

The fact that the other party can send a count to participate in the talks this time also shows that they attach greater importance to the power of the "founder".

"The Fool who does not belong to this era..." Hobert prayed: "Dear Mr. Fool, please help me tell the 'Moon' that I will arrive on time."

After the prayer, Hobert was just about to find his way to solve Trunsoest's problem when he felt something spiritual and looked at a piece of paper on the desk in front of him.

A series of blood-red words suddenly appeared on the piece of paper, as if written in blood: Is it suitable to talk alone now?

Hobert was stunned for a moment before he realized that this was Miss Sharon's question, so he said: "Suitable."

A piece of glass on the window was opened like a door, and Miss Sharon, who looked a little unreal, floated out from inside.

Hobert stood up and smiled: "I hope you brought good news."

Sharon looked at Hobert expressionlessly before saying, "That's good news. We have decided to join the war and will dispatch three demigods."

She seemed to notice that Hobert was different from the day before yesterday, but she couldn't tell exactly what the difference was.

Hobert smiled: "This is indeed good news!"

After the two discussed the details of how to get to the South Colson area, Sharon took her leave.

Hobert sighed helplessly, his thoughts just now were interrupted, so he took out the map again and decided to first solve the extraordinary war problem that might break out at any time.

In the evening, Hobert, wearing a mask, came to the "Moon Lake Hotel". Emlyn, the contact person for this meeting, was already waiting at the door of the hotel.

After seeing Hobert's mask, he raised his chin and smiled: "We have already met once, do we still need to wear a mask?"

Emlyn knew Hobert and the "Emperor", but he didn't know that the "Emperor" was Hobert. He only knew that they were both favored by the "Creator".

Holbert deliberately hoarse his voice and said coldly: "Who said we have met?"

Emlyn was slightly startled. He was about to smell it with his nose out of habit, but then he remembered that what he smelled last time was a strong perfume. He didn't know the real smell of the "Emperor" during the last transaction, so he couldn't tell the difference. Is the person in front of me the "Emperor"?

Seeing Emlyn's embarrassed look, Hobert raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said in a normal voice: "You're just kidding, let's go."

"Please come this way." Emlyn breathed a sigh of relief. If the "Emperor" came this time, it would be difficult to explain to the Earl of the Blood Tribe.

Emlyn took Hobert to an elegantly decorated conference room, where the Earl and two viscounts of the Blood Tribe were already waiting.

The last time Hobert made a deal with the vampires, he had seen the two viscounts, Ernes, who wore glasses and looked like a professor, and Alvin, who looked younger and had a fashionable hairstyle.

This was the first time I met the earl. She was a very beautiful woman. Although she was not as charming as the witch, she was almost as beautiful as the witch.

Her short black hair was meticulously styled, and she did not wear a long skirt, but a women's suit that tended to be neutral in appearance. She looked very much like a successful woman!

Emlyn introduced: "This is the respected Count Rosalind."

Hobert greeted the other party politely: "Hello, Earl."

"Hello." Rosalind smiled and shook Hobert's hand.

After the two parties took their seats, Ernes talked to Hobert for a few words about the weather in Backlund, and then Hobert brought the conversation to the main topic: "We are going to launch an extraordinary war, and I have been ordered to invite the vampires to participate in the war."

Rosalind said at this time: "Please give me a reason for the vampires to join the war."

Hobert thought to himself: I have a very good relationship with the Church of the Mother Earth. Is this a good reason?

However, I can only think about such "reasons" in my mind: "1 piece of 'Crimson Scholar', 2 pieces of 'Potion Professor', 2 pieces of extraordinary characteristics of 'Vampire'."

Emlyn wanted to ask: Could this "Crimson Scholar"'s extraordinary characteristics be the same one he agreed to trade with me?

But in order to avoid revealing too many secrets, this question cannot be asked for the time being.

Rosalind thought for a moment before asking: "We can dispatch two viscounts..."

"No, you have to dispatch at least one count, that is, a demigod." Hobert smiled and said: "What I just said is just a nominal reward. You know, in today's world, extraordinary wars don't happen every day. can be encountered.

"If we win, I think you will be able to harvest a lot of loot."

Hobert's purpose is to use this war to cooperate more closely with the vampires. If the other party can send out a demigod, he will basically achieve his goal.

Count Rosalind showed a beautiful smile: "What if the war fails?"

"Then you can get at least five extraordinary characteristics." Hobert smiled: "Everything in this world has risks, and your risks are already very small."

Rosalind did not make any comment on Hobert's words, but asked again: "You have been talking about extraordinary war, which means that our identity will be completely exposed to the enemy, right?"

Hobert smiled and said: "The difference between war and battle is that a victorious extraordinary war can defeat an Extraordinary organization or Extraordinary family.

"If they can win, they will hide from the vampires in the future. If they fail, we will be the first to be liquidated. You have enough time to hide yourself."

Rosalind asked again: "With whom is the war?"

"The Witch Cult."

Rosalind took a deep breath: "Are you crazy?"

Hobert didn't say anything, just looked at the vampire earl.

Rosalind immediately realized that the favored person of the "creator" in front of her already had a good chance of winning this war.

Then she was very surprised: Is the "creator" so powerful? Can we start a war with the Witch Sect?

Ernes and Ivan also looked at each other. They knew very well that among all the secret organizations, the Witch Sect was definitely one of the stronger ones.

Emlyn also did not expect that the enemy would be the Witch Sect. This was the craziest idea he had heard recently.

Rosalind was silent before saying: "The risk is too great, I need to go back and think about it."

This was what Hobert had expected. He stood up and said, "No problem. Once you have the results, you can ask Emlyn to tell me."

Then he reminded: "Well, it's best to hurry up, our main force has already begun to assemble."

To be precise, three families, including Balk, have completed their assembly in the South Colson area.

……

Thursday morning, Longtail Island.

Forsi and Xio rode together to inspect the territory where the eastern mountains meet the plains.

In the nearby area, Angus's subordinates have had several extraordinary conflicts with the Mountain God Church, but both sides have been relatively restrained and there have been no casualties.

This is more like the two sides are declaring their own strength. Hobert once talked to Angus about this battle. Hobert thought that it would not be possible to fight for a while.

For now, the initiative to initiate the battle lies with Hobert. Whenever he wants to regain control of the eastern mountainous area, the battle will break out. The Church of the Mountain God has already felt the toughness shown by Angus. With their strength, they will hardly take the initiative to attack.

It would be great if they could take the initiative, as there would be no need to go into the mountains to search for their traces.

In addition to Forsi and Xio, there were more than a dozen Extraordinaries from the Special Operations Department such as Angus, as well as more than a dozen officials at all levels and many servants.

The main purpose of this inspection was actually to invite Forsi to examine the plan to build a dam on each of the two small rivers on Longwei Island.

Although there is no distinction between summer and winter on Longtail Island, there is a rainy season.

Once the rainy season comes, rivers surge and can easily flood farmland and villages on the plains.

Xio looked up at the sky, which seemed to be about to rain again, and said to his good friend beside him: "Didn't you drive him away? And you helped him patrol the territory?"

She had learned to ride horses when she was young, and her riding skills were quite good, but her saddle had to be the smallest model, otherwise her feet would not be able to reach the matching stirrups.

Forsi had just started riding a horse recently. She carefully pulled the reins: "This island also belongs to me. Of course I have to manage it well."

Xio shook her head. In her impression, Forsi was not a person who liked to run around.

At this time, a few raindrops hit everyone. Xio skillfully put on the raincoat and pulled the brim of the raincoat.

She was about to help Forsi put on the raincoat, but found that the raindrops seemed to avoid Forsi, and not a single drop fell on her.

Xio asked in surprise: "How did you do it?"

She didn't remember that the "astrologer" had such abilities.

Forsi smiled and said, "Secret."

Just by releasing the seal of the "Teleporting Stone Statue", the raindrops will fall to a certain range and then split automatically.

Xio guessed that this might be the sealed item given to her by Hobert, and planned to ask again later when they were alone.

"Disperse!" Angus at the front suddenly shouted!

Xio saw that the heavy rain in front became very strange. The raindrops suddenly turned into small ice cubes. They no longer fell down, but some went left, some right, and some upward, as if they were returning to the sky. .

It was like a rain, or a whirlwind of ice water!

Although she didn't know what the situation was, Xio knew that there must be danger. She took the reins from Forsi's hand, pulled her horse and quickly left the team.

As expected, the "Ice Water Whirlwind" came towards this direction quickly, and everyone evaded it.

Angus immediately noticed something was wrong and shouted a reminder while chasing: "Madam! Be careful!"

The "Ice Water Whirlwind" is actually chasing Forsi and Xio!

Angus shouted: "No 'twisting' here!"

Angus has noticed that the rainwater from the "ice water whirlwind" is flying down in all directions because of a powerful "twisting" force.

But his "ban" had no effect at all!

Forsi, who sensed the danger, immediately injected his spirituality into the "Traveler's Gate".

But something strange happened. Although the space in front of the two people became illusory, the illusion was like clothes twisted together with force, which looked very dangerous.

Forsi and Xio did not dare to enter the obviously "distorted" spiritual world and continued to run forward.

Seeing the "icy water whirlwind" getting closer and closer, Forsi quickly prayed to the "creator": "The creator in the shadow of order..."

……

At this time, Hobert, who was in Backlund, had just been notified by Cattleya the Hermit. At midnight tonight, Bernadette, the Queen of Mysteries, asked Hobert to meet on the highest mountain on the east coast of Full Moon Lake.

Hobert once took Bernadette to the peak, where you could have a panoramic view of the entire Full Moon Lake.

Later, tourists often saw a beautiful lady with special-looking clothing sitting alone on the top of that mountain. Some even said that she was the elf of that mountain.

Hobo guessed that it should be Bernadette.

As long as he contacted Bernadette again, Hobert would be contacted by all the foreign aids he could think of.

At this time, Hobert heard the call of prayer coming from the "Land of Disorder".

By Sequence 3, Hobert could already hear clearly who was praying in the "Land of Disorder".

Hearing Forsi's urgent voice, Hobert immediately entered the "Land of Disorder", his spirituality spread to the stars representing Forsi, and saw her running wildly with Xio on horseback.

And behind them, there is a twisted space chasing them.

Hobert immediately took action, projecting power to Longtail Island through Forsi's stars.

……

On Longtail Island.

Forsi and Xio, as well as Angus and others who were chasing after them, all felt a surge of power coming.

The "icy water whirlwind" suddenly stopped, and then small ice cubes formed by the rain fell to the ground.

wow~

The surrounding raindrops fell to the ground normally, as if nothing had happened just now.

Angus, who was catching up behind him, let out a long sigh: "Praise the founder!"

If his wife was hurt in front of him, he would probably ruin his future.

Forsi also whispered: "Praise the creator!"

Xio glanced at Forsi with some surprise. She had recently noticed that her friend had changed a lot in the past six months.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that she didn't know Forsi anymore.

……

In "The State of Disorder".

Hobert was about to use his "real vision" to check his surroundings to see where the huge twisting force came from.

But suddenly he thought, isn't this a good opportunity to "break the ice" with Forsi!

It was too late to check, so Hobert immediately returned to the real world and used "travel" to go to Longtail Island.

In the spirit world, Hobert realized that he had to "put on makeup".

So when Hobert appeared on Longtail Island, he wore his hat backwards and a shirt. The cufflinks on his shirt were wrong, and the shoe on his left foot had gone somewhere.

After coming out of the spirit world, Hobert asked eagerly: "Forsi, where are you injured? Quickly let me see!"

Under the awning that was set up, Forsi had just drank a glass of wine to calm down his shock and was waiting for the servant to boil hot water.

After she saw Hobert's appearance, her face was still expressionless, but her eyes were somewhat touched.

Seeing Hobert like this, Xio was stunned for a moment before asking: "Hobert, where are your shoes?"

Hobert thanked Xio in his heart for the assist, and then he looked down and said, "Yes, where are my shoes?"

He smiled sheepishly: "I just heard that Forsi was attacked by an unknown force. I was anxious for a moment. I might have lost him somewhere."

Angus, who was sheltering from the rain with Forsi in an awning, bowed slightly to Hobert, and then immediately left the awning.

He realized that it was better not to listen to these conversations.

Xio smiled and shook his head: "You are such a big person, you can still lose your shoes."

Then she sent another amazing assist: "You're wearing your hat backwards too."

Only then did Hobert touch it: "Sorry."

After turning his hat over, Hobert came to Forsi with an eager look on his face: "Let me see if there are any injuries?"

As he spoke, he held Forsi's hand and looked around her.

Forsi wanted to throw away Hobert's hand, but seeing Hobert's eagerness, he couldn't bear it, so he didn't do so: "It's okay, I'm okay!"

Hobert breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he started talking to himself, it was a good start.

He checked and saw that Forsi was indeed not injured, so he said to her seriously: "Don't do such dangerous things in the future."

Forsi was stunned for a moment by these words, and then he thought that it was just an ordinary inspection! Why is it dangerous?

Before she could say anything, Hobert said again: "What did I tell you before? The mountainous area is still very dangerous! What are you doing here in the mountainous area?

"Do you know how worried I was just now? Why is such a big person so uneasy?"

Forsi felt a little guilty: "I... I just inspected the river bank, and it happened that this section of the river bank is at the foot of the mountain."

"Go back quickly, it's raining so hard and you're still patrolling!" Hobert said, "Take Xio back with you, I'll continue the patrol!"

Forsi hesitated for a moment and then said: "Okay, the main thing is to see where to start building the dike on the Leite River."

"I know, I know." Hobert waved his hand impatiently and said, "Go back and rest!"

Forsi used "travel" to take Xio back to the Governor's Mansion. Forsi, who appeared in the office, was still a little confused and felt that something was wrong just now.

Xio took off her raincoat and tried to hang it on the clothes hanger, but after trying it twice, she couldn't reach the clothes hook on the clothes hanger. She simply threw it up and it just happened to be hung on the clothes hook.

"Hobert seems to care about you very much!" Xio said, "I've known him for so long, and this is the first time I've seen him look so embarrassed."

Forsi's mood is very complicated now: "Of course I know this!"

How could she not feel Hobert's love for her? In the past few days, she would always think of everything she had with Hobert, which made her not hate Hobert at all.
