Longmen Memoirs

"It's just a joke." Chen Mo smiled.

Mud Yan pursed his lips slightly.

"But your face looked very strange when you came back. I feel... you seem to have been thinking about this matter and the differences with Ms. Kelsey." Mu Yan thought about it and asked hesitantly.

"No, I am thinking about other things." Chen Mo said: "For example, how to deal with this group of mercenaries cleanly, and the issue of the agreement with the southern lords and clans. They are trying to please both sides. This is not good for us. It's not a good thing, but once this war breaks out, they actually want to stay out of it and wait for a price."

"This is a common problem among all lords... Sir." Mudyan said: "And, as far as I know, with the long war and civil strife in Kazdare, many people do not have hope for its end. They just want to occupy the position during the war. A good position to get enough benefits for yourself.”

"You are right. The parliament formed by His Highness is too loose. Ideals and status alone cannot make those lords and nobles willing to risk everything for this war." Chen Mo said: "Furthermore, many people are very interested in special Resis is quite interested in that, but His Highness...sometimes he is too gentle. You know, some dogs, you just don't give them enough bones."

"Your metaphor..." Ni Yan hesitated.

"Very appropriate?" Chen Mo asked.

Miss Sakaz hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Chen Mo turned around and put his hand on the map.

Kalsi does not agree with my plan to move His Highness to the land speeder. She thinks it is too risky, but I know that everyone is watching the movements of the Tower of Babel now.

The Tower of Babel must properly demonstrate its resolve.

Theresa's moderate policies and tactics have disappointed many people in the past.

How can one attract the prying eyes of a group of jackals without enough chips? Perhaps this metaphor is not appropriate.

Hedley is a very useful mercenary, and his reputation is big enough. I think maybe the Pardoners will find him if Garson died too suddenly.

He had no other choice. He had to choose between me and Tracys.

This person always has some far-fetched thoughts in his mind. He is a mercenary, but he always thinks about things that have nothing to do with mercenaries. Maybe he does have some abilities in other aspects, but he obviously has not done a good job as a mercenary. Duty.

Oh, also, I did have some differences with Kelsey, but not like Mudrock thought.

Our disagreement was just that...he felt like I was becoming less and less of a human being.

"You have to find a goal that allows you to align yourself and don't forget who you are."

Occasionally I heard Kelu Xier complaining that she had this appearance many years ago.

Many years ago...maybe longer than I thought.

This is Kelsey's bedroom. There is nothing in her bedroom that a woman should see in her room, cosmetics, beautiful clothes, pink decorations... nothing.

As simple and simple as she is, with no extra powder, her face that may not be liked by many people may not need any cosmetics.

Her skin is very good and her legs are very white. She can be regarded as an outstanding beauty, provided that... she really regards herself as a woman rather than a medical tool.

This is undoubtedly what she did. Except for Chen Die's medical report and computer, there is nothing extra in her room.

Chen Mo even doubted whether there were several pieces of the same style of clothes in the wardrobe. She was someone who could do such a thing, and she didn't care what others thought of her.

Who did she care about?

At least no one can see it now. Her life is boring and monotonous, but it does not make her boring. Maybe she is just getting used to it. The long time has left no trace on her body.

"I never forgot who I was."

"But I can feel that your emotions are shifting... I need to observe you for a period of time to ensure that your physiological and conscious state will not affect the subsequent experimental process."

The transparent test tube was being filled with red blood mixed with a wisp of golden blood. Kelsey stood behind Chen Mo. Her hand was steady, but she could still feel a slight sting when the sharp needle came away from her neck.

Chen Mo watched the doctor enter the password and put the test tube into the refrigeration device.

"Compared to this, have you found the method you mentioned before?"

"The whereabouts of the Pardoners are very mysterious... Most of them stand under the command of Tresis. Although they publicly stated that they will not participate in the political struggle of any party, this is not the case. They are also human beings and will have their own problems. choose."

"so……"

"I am trying to contact a Pardoner I know. Her name is Shining. She is one of the few members of the Pardoner organization who still remains neutral and adheres to the ancient traditions of the Pardoners."

"That means there is no news." Chen Mo looked at the doctor's back. The latter came back to his senses and stared in Chen Mo's direction with his light green eyes.

"Are you blaming me?" She was slightly unhappy.

"Just a reminder." Chen Mo said. Kelsey's white coat reflected a dark shadow in the dim light. Chen Mo stood up from his seat: "Your job and responsibilities, Kelsey, I don't think we are here now." When we talk about the time of the universe, the stars, the earth’s circle and the satellite network, you have to understand that once this matter does not come to an end, everything we have done will be in vain. The hopes of people everywhere in Kazdaele will collapse with them."

Kelly didn't answer.

"You have to do it, doctor!"

"I'll try!"

"Not only do you try your best, I mean, you must! You must, no matter what the cost, Theresia must not die!" Chen Mo lowered his voice every word. "What's your answer?"

"I'm not sure, even if I told you now that I could do it, the reality is, I'm not sure it would be effective."

"No!" Chen Mo shook his head. He walked to the doctor. The doctor looked at his approaching figure and knew that he was standing dozens of centimeters away from him, lowering his head and looking into his eyes.

"Kelsey, you have to do it! Instead of trying your best, try your best."

He said that the doctor could even see the indifference and decisive indifference in his eyes. It no longer looked like a person's gaze. There was a golden light flickering in his black pupils, and the light was a bit like... a flame. .

Doctors aren't sure.

But the person in front of me is undoubtedly getting further and further away.

"You need to control your emotions, Chen Mo." Kelsey opened her lips lightly and reminded: "There is something wrong with your current situation."

"I'm very good."

"It's just that you think so. In fact, your will is being affected. You didn't realize it. Keep yourself, Chen Mo." She said, "It is affecting you more and more deeply."

Chen Mo was stunned.

After several seconds, he let go【&

"I'm sorry, Kelsey." Chen Mo took two steps back: "Maybe you are right."

Kelsey's beautiful face still showed no change in expression.

"To what extent?"

"I am not sure."

"You didn't tell me what happened to you at Longmen."

"It's nothing." Chen Mo said, "I just made a deal with an old guy and did him some favors in exchange for some things."

"No, it's more than that." Kelsey shook her head. "There is something more important..."

"Well..." Chen Mo was quiet for two seconds.

He probably understood something.

Perhaps it was just that he gave up the anchor point he had originally chosen for himself.

"You are lost now. Your emotions, your feelings, and your will are gradually being affected. You need to position yourself and remind you who you are at all times."

"I remember."

"I hope you don't just remember." Kelsey's face showed a rare determination.

"I will try." Chen Mo said: "But before that, I will step down from the responsibility of protecting His Highness. The safety of the Tower of Babel and His Highness will be temporarily handed over to Askaron. This was originally her job. I will go take care of some other business, and the Doctor and I have a plan before the Tower of Babel and that ship of yours decide to arrive in Kazdaele.”

Chapter 7 Net

W called out Ines's name loudly, but there was no response from the latter.

The sudden explosion and impact caused heavy casualties to the entire team. The magicians had no time to build defenses. The night was deep and dark, and it was difficult to see where the attackers came from. There were shouts everywhere.

In the chaos, W, who was still ringing in the ears, saw the figure of Ines slowly falling in the firelight.

Ines slowly opened her eyes and covered her aching head. The pain in her head made her thoughts not as fast and clear as before.

"What's the situation now."

In the light of dawn, she saw W sitting next to her, hiding behind a huge rock.

"It's nothing, but in case you fell down and lost your memory, I can remind you." W's face didn't look good. She didn't dare to light a fire out of caution. It was the coldest time before dawn, so she had to wrap up tightly. He took off his cloak and said: "We were ambushed an hour ago. The enemy was very fast. The magician had no time to construct the spell Co.. The team was broken up. There were only two of us nearby."

Ines was silent for a moment.

The situation was worse than she expected.

"Where's the communications?" she asked.

"I was disturbed. I don't know what the means are. The other party is very professional, more professional than any previous prey." W replied: "The good news is that the other party did not go towards the escort target. It seems that they just found a little information based on the wind. , I actually don’t know anything about it.”

Her words were somewhat frivolous.

The two fell into silence at the same time, looking at each other.

"...keep moving and find a way to meet up with the others."

"Oh, I thought you would at least doubt me." W chuckled and asked, "I will keep you as live bait."

"Who do you think will survive if I fight you now?"

"Of course -" W was about to answer without thinking, but stopped mid-sentence.

Because the way Ines looked at her seemed to have already confirmed the answer.

"Tsk, you really have a bad character. You confirmed my injury at a glance?"

"Oh...it turns out you are in so much pain."

Ines seemed to realize it later.

"I thought you could even disguise your mood swings, so I worried for a moment, but it seems to be unnecessary."

w was startled for a moment.

"...The first thing you do when you wake up is to use your magic to observe your teammates? You are really full of trust, captain." She said sarcastically.

"It's just a habit." Ines said calmly.

"Ah, I see. The first lesson when you open your eyes is to be wary of your surroundings. You are really a coward." W said, as if he was deliberately breaking the pot after being discovered through his disguise: "Tsk, it hurts..."

Ines didn't pay attention to the sharpness in W's words. This guy always spoke with an unpleasant tone. At this point, they were actually evenly matched.

"You said live bait, right? It's a good suggestion." Ines said: "It would be stupid to take a mercenary with an unstable fighting position. Just stay, and I will help you notify the surrounding people." enemy's."

"You'd better get along with them happily, and don't die too ugly." Ines stood up and looked at W sitting on the ground: "See you later, W, oh maybe we will never see each other again. One last thing, I I never trusted you at all."

"Hey, you...!"

W's words stopped on her lips, and a Sakaz mercenary appeared in front of her, who was looking at her hiding behind the rock.

"Found the target, one person, confirm the other party's code name, w."

He relayed this information into the communicator.

w tightened his grip on the gun at hand.

"So fast?" She was a little surprised: "No, you have been following us...?"

"With the skills of you people, letting one or two people go is nothing to be afraid of." The other party said, W seemed to finally understand the meaning of what Ines just said, so she had actually discovered it a long time ago and said it on purpose. of.

"Humph." The other party snorted coldly, watching W getting up from the ground precariously leaning on the rock behind him: "I wanted to monitor you until I found our team, but I didn't expect that I would abandon my companions and give the team's information Tell me everything and you can die quickly."

"This is really troublesome... I'm actually happy to be honest, but I really don't know anything."

"You are seriously injured, and we don't have much time. A hasty torture may lead to death, which is not good for us." The other party threatened.

"Then you go after that woman, she knows more than me."

"...She used you as bait, don't you hate her?" The other party said, "It would be much more enjoyable to cooperate with us."

"Where's the bait?" w repeated the other party's words softly: "Have you... ever used industrial origin stone fragments to lure origin stone insects?"

The other party was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand the meaning of w's incomprehensible words.

"...what are you trying to say?"

"It's just a folk remedy of Kazdare's. We often encounter a lot of trouble because of the Origin Stone Worms, don't we?" w explained to himself: "Wild Origin Stone Worms have very low intelligence, and it is said that they will react to the Origin Stone... …But regardless of whether it’s true or false, do you know what will happen to those bugs that are lured here?”

"Don't be pretentious..." W's words aroused the other party's vigilance. He looked around and found nothing unusual.
