What Tracy is most worried about now is that his self-assertion will cause Theresa, whose soul will be restored in the future, to blame him... Although they are both leaders of the Sarkaz and have such awareness, Tracy still hopes that his sister's other half will be the one she wants to choose.
But now it seems... he doesn't need to worry about this problem. Theresa has a huge interest in Chen Qi, and this is the best manifestation!
"Okay, you won't leave, Director Chen Qi?" At this time, Theresa continued to keep her eyes dull, but her tone was very gentle, and she said word by word:
"I need you, and the Sarkaz need you too. Please stay."
"...Sister Wang, Director Chen Qi is a free man. He can't stay here forever. We shouldn't hinder his progress."
However, before Chen Qi could speak, it was Tracy who spoke first, patiently persuading Theresa. At this moment, he no longer regarded Theresa as a body without a soul. He could feel that his sister was slowly returning.
"Sister Wang, the person who is bound by your side is not what you want, nor what the Sarkaz wants. There is still a chance to meet again in the future. Now, let go."
"..."
However, as Theresis finished speaking, Theresia really let go obediently, but everyone could see a hint of loss on Theresia's face at this moment.
At this moment, everyone's expressions became even more interesting. Tallulah's face turned dark, and Vina's mouth slightly widened. It was obvious that she also understood what was going on between her teacher and the Sarkaz princess.
The one who was overjoyed was undoubtedly Tracy, who now seemed to have a cold expression. It was almost by virtue of his natural tendency to have few expressions that Tracy managed to control his emotions and not show them outwardly.
The one who was in the most delicate mood at the moment was naturally Chen Qi... Because he was the only one in the audience who knew that the princess had been resurrected a long time ago, but he didn't know what the princess was going to do with this...
Fortunately, Tracy persuaded her to go back, otherwise, seeing her pitiful appearance with blood still on her hands, Chen Qi would have been so soft-hearted. He must have been in great psychological torment in order to uphold his male ethics!
However, facing the people with different expressions in the audience, Theresa looked calm on the surface, but in fact, her small action controlled the thoughts of everyone in the audience.
"In this case, Miss Tallulah will surely know my thoughts. And this time, I will be separated from Director Chen Qi for a long time. Miss Tallulah will have enough time to digest my thoughts subtly."
"Also, Brother Wang must have understood my idea. In this case, Brother Wang can confirm the next contact between me and Director Chen Qi..."
Theresa's mind was so active that a small action allowed her to control the next development. She only needed to wait quietly for the next meeting with Chen Qi...
Chapter 174: A long-lost enemy? The knights of war ambushed Chen Qi
"Before you all went to Colombia, I had already released the promotional advertisement for "To the Moon" in Colombia. Director Chen Qi, you said before that we will shoot in the painting, and time in the outside world will pass slower, right?"
On the land ship heading to Colombia, Kristen also told Chen Qi about the publicity she had done in Colombia and the preparations for the filming while Chen Qi was filming "Yes, Prime Minister".
"I have already arranged a place for everyone to rest at the Rhine Life headquarters, as well as a prepared filming location. I have also informed the Colombian government, and the president is willing to cooperate with your filming."
With the power behind Chen Qi now, the President of Colombia dared not disagree. The Rhine Life company alone was enough to make Colombia tremble, not to mention Chen Qi, a mobile strategic propaganda weapon.
Therefore, Chen Qi still had the green light for the filming of "Going to the Moon" this time, and he was naturally relieved about Kristen's arrangements.
Although this is the first time the two have worked together, Kristen is only doing it for Saria and has no reason to do anything against Chen Qi. The subject matter of "Going to the Moon" this time is at most an attitude of Kristen. She doesn't want to part ways with Saria so decisively.
"I hope Saria is still in Colombia and can still see news about this movie..." Christen murmured to himself with the last glimmer of hope, but Chen Qi didn't think much of it.
After all, Saria left because of differences in ideas with Kristen. Kristen was indifferent to everything outside the starry sky and became a complete scientific researcher. His attitude of indifference to life and humanity was unacceptable to Saria.
Although Saria supported her largely because of Kristen's talent and persistent pursuit of knowledge, these alone were not enough to keep Saria.
Of course, Chen Qi couldn't say these words, he had to let these two people who had everything in their hearts speak out. Chen Qi just focused on filming, and fulfilling the requirements was considered as his utmost kindness.
However, what surprised Chen Qi was that since they were driving to Columbia, he originally thought that Tallulah would be unhappy with him because of Theresa's previous behavior, but he never expected that Tallulah did not have much of a tantrum along the way, which made Chen Qi a little uncomfortable.
This feeling is like the calm before the storm... Chen Qi finally couldn't stand the psychological pressure and went to ask Tallulah about this matter. Unexpectedly, Tallulah didn't have any emotion at all.
"You underestimate my tolerance. I know that the princess is interested in you, but she is just a living dead, right? Do I have to be jealous of a living dead?"
Although Tallulah was a little angry at first, she changed her mind now. Is it worth it for her to bother with a person whose soul has not yet revived? The other party is probably acting according to instinct, so isn't it normal for him to be reluctant to part with the person who has been with him all this time?
Of course, the main reason why Tallulah was so generous was that they had all left Victoria and their next stop had been determined, which would definitely be back to Longmen. It was just that it would be difficult to go to Victoria to see the princess again.
Tallulah's generosity also made Chen Qi put his worries aside temporarily. However, at this time, the system's voice sounded in Chen Qi's mind again, but this time, the system's voice sounded much sharper.
[Alert, the small map shows that there are hostile forces ambushing within a ten-kilometer radius around the host. The enemy is strong. It is recommended that the host be prepared to respond. ]
Enemy? Hearing this long-lost name, Chen Qi remembered that he had not paid attention to the small map for a long time. He immediately called up the system. Soon, all the situations within a radius of ten kilometers fell into Chen Qi's eyes.
Soon, Chen Qi saw a row of very conspicuous red dots right in front of him, right in front of their land ship, with the words "Landmine" displayed on them.
Chen Qi also noticed that not far from this row of mines, there were fourteen large red dots surrounding a circle. Obviously, these were the enemies trying to ambush them, and what was displayed were [war knights wearing silver spears and Pegasus armor].
"War Knights? Aren't those the people from Casimir's side?" Chen Qi reacted immediately. He was not too surprised. After all, his work had a great impact on Casimir. Some time ago, Casimir had a credibility crisis and the expedition failed. It was only natural that some of them wanted to harm him.
However, what Chen Qi didn't understand was why the names of these enemies were so strange? If the monitoring would be disadvantageous to him, then the Silver Spear Pegasus could obviously be sent out, so why send the Conquest Knights?
"Even if the Silver Spear Pegasus have high moral standards and are unwilling to do this kind of dirty work, there is no need to make the war knights wear their armor, right?"
"Or are these people not sent by the Supervisory Commission?"
Chen Qi was not quite sure of the truth, he just instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he also knew that there was no way to avoid this group of knights who were ambushing them.
When facing neutral objects, Chen Qi can be polite; when facing allies, Chen Qi can be humble, but when dealing with clear enemies, it is useless to escape. The opponent will definitely try every means to kill you. Showing weakness at this time will only make the enemy think that you are afraid, and they will be more unscrupulous when bullying you in the future.
Unfortunately, however, from the day Chen Qi led the Integration Movement out of the snowfield, he promised everyone one thing - he would not allow anyone to manipulate them at will anymore.
"Everyone, it seems we have a guest. Someone is waiting for us not far away."
"Are there enemies ahead?"
Chen Qi's words immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the land ship, and Tallulah, who was familiar with Chen Qi's meaning, immediately understood that there was an enemy ahead.
Christen was also a little surprised. She did not receive any reports from the security guards wearing power armor. The power armor had their latest reconnaissance system, but no news of approaching enemies was sent. How did Chen Qi know in advance that there were enemies in the distance?
But Chen Qi nodded firmly, and then immediately said to Tallulah beside him:
"Tallulah, go contact Mr. Patriot and his shield guards and have them form a guard formation as soon as they get off the car. Anyone in the art troupe who doesn't have the confidence to fight a single guard should not get off the car."
"What a coincidence! What our art troupe lacks the least is the combat effectiveness of its internal guards." And Tallulah immediately drew out the long sword at her waist and entered the combat state after a long time. She immediately passed Chen Qi's instructions to others.
"Director Chen Qi? Although I don't know how you know there are enemies ahead... but it's best for us not to get entangled with them. It's better to use the speed of the land ship to rush into Columbia. Then they won't dare to chase us."
At this time, Christen saw that Chen Qi seemed to be planning to confront the opponent head-on, and she was a little worried - ever since Saria left, she has always felt insecure. Without Saria around, no matter how many power armors she had, she would not feel at ease.
"My 'Bohai' emergency defense system can provide powerful defense capabilities. If they want to intercept us, they will definitely lay mines, but I can guarantee that they cannot blow up our land ship."
"——It's not enough to just protect the land ship under our feet, Commander Christen." However, Chen Qi did not take Christen's suggestion seriously and immediately stated:
"I will face the enemy together with everyone in our art troupe, instead of abandoning them to escape. Besides, how do you know we can't defeat them?"
"Besides, we are facing Casimir's war knights this time. Their racial advantage is their ability to chase quickly. No matter how fast the land ship is, I'm afraid they will catch up with it."
"Fighting Knights? Director Chen Qi, how did you know..."
Chen Qi's words once again plunged Christen into confusion. It was already incredible that Chen Qi knew there was an enemy that she didn't know about. How come he now even knew who the enemy was?
Did Chen Qi have his own intelligence? Did he know in advance that he would be ambushed? Christen knew very little about the "behemoth", so she didn't think of this at the first time. She thought Chen Qi might have his own intelligence network.
And if Chen Qi knew the intelligence in advance and deliberately walked in the direction where the enemy was... did he intend to use this group of enemies as experimental subjects to show his own strength?
But... they were the War Knights. Christen knew the strength of the War Knights after all. They were the backbone of Casimir. Even for Saria... it would be very difficult to deal with two at a time, right?
Could it be that Director Chen Qi is confident that he can deal with the Knights of War? Could it be that the only one in their team who looks strong, the Patriot, is stronger than Saria?
……
"What? Already left?"
However, in Londinium, not long after Chen Qi and his party left, a group of people led by Zuo Le from Si Suitai, who had come all the way from Yan State, also arrived in Londinium. Naturally, they were received by the two grand dukes, but they had no time to stay as they had to convey the order of the Emperor of Yan State as soon as possible.
When Zuo Le heard from the two grand dukes that Chen Qi had left for Colombia, his face changed and he thought to himself that it was not good.
"I'm actually a step too slow. Now Casimir, Ursus, and Leitania have a subtle attitude towards Director Chen Qi... They are probably planning an attack on the way. If Director Chen Qi is in danger..."
"I appreciate the kindness of the two Grand Dukes, but I have urgent official duties to attend to and cannot neglect them."
Zuo Le paid attention to Chen Qi's safety at the first moment. Without stopping, he immediately went to chase Chen Qi with other people from Simuitai.
The actions of Yan State naturally fell into Tracy's eyes at this moment. Zuo Le came in a hurry, but left in a hurry, and his immature behavior of looking for Chen Qi also made Tracy smell something unusual.
"Someone in Yan Country is actually looking for Chen Qi? Although Director Chen Qi may be a Yan Country native, he should have no connection with the Yan Country's top brass."
"And their so-called urgent official business... What is Yan Country's attitude towards Director Chen Qi?"
"——Brother Wang, I think we should protect Director Chen Qi." At this moment, Theresa on the side spoke immediately, remaining calm to Theresis, but said anxiously in her heart:
"This is the time to show our attitude towards heroes and friends."
"You are right, sister." Tresis nodded, then immediately summoned the pardoner and ordered:
"Let the Blood Demon Lord and the five Pardoners follow the speed of the Yan Nation delegation to find Director Chen Qi and observe their attitude towards Director Chen Qi."
"…Although we don't want to provoke Yan Nation for the time being, if they really want to harm Director Chen Qi, tell Lord Blood Demon to make this group of envoys disappear without a trace, leaving no trace behind, and don't let anyone escape."
Chapter 175: Fighting Knight: We are just a piece of cake in your eyes, right?
The land boat sailed for a while until Chen Qi shouted to stop, and then it stopped some distance away from the ambush mines.
As the land ship docked, the Patriots, who had been ready for battle, quickly got off the vehicle with their well-equipped shield guards and formed a circle around the land ship, ready to guard against any enemies that might appear around them at any time.
The shield guards' equipment is different from when they first came out of the snowfield. Chen Qi has been in Londinium for such a long time, but he has not done nothing but filming. Chen Qi has taken the opportunity to update the equipment of all the combatants in the crew.
And this was a piece of cake for the Grand Duke of Londinium, so he didn't charge Chen Qi a penny. But now the fighting effectiveness of the shield guards is no longer what it used to be.
Not just the Patriots and Shield Guards, but also Froststar, Tallulah, Vina, Maenna, Nian and Xi, as well as Christen, all the members who had the strength to face at least one Undefeated Knight of the Conquest, all stepped off the land ship.
Of course, Vina and Christen are here to protect Chen Qi's safety. Vina's strength is still a little inferior to that of the Knights of War, and she can only maintain a stalemate. Christen's fighting ability is really unbearable to face, but she has technology to protect herself.
As for the several security guards wearing power armor that she brought with her, for Chen Qi, they were only a consolation as they were too slow to even act as meat shields.
"——As expected of the famous Director Chen Qi, he had already sensed the ambush before even touching the mine trap."
Chen Qi and his companions had just formed their battle formation when, unknowingly, knights in armor wearing silver spears and Pegasus horses slowly appeared around them from both sides.
There are fourteen knights in total, and in Casimir, the standard for a team of knights is seven people, and two teams of knights are enough to take on extremely severe tasks in a war. If they are silver-spear Pegasus, they can even serve as an indestructible vanguard.
"Silver Spear Pegasus!"
When these knights first appeared, the Patriots, who had clashed with the Silver Spear Pegasus more than once, immediately recognized their armor.
The vigilance and seriousness in the patriot's tone also made everyone in the art troupe more serious. Even the battle-hardened patriot was so fearful, so the other party was obviously a powerful enemy.
"Since everyone knows who we are, there is no need to introduce each other."
The leading knight turned his gaze towards Chen Qi. As soon as he finished speaking, the fourteen knights raised their weapons, ready to join the battle at any time.
"Director Chen Qi, there is nothing more to say at this point. We only have two outcomes now: you die, or we die."
"It's better not to think that we will show mercy. A true knight is not a commodity that stops at a certain point in the arena. Every time we fight, we are determined to die."
After that, the knights raised their weapons, and Chen Qi's side was ready to go to war at any time. Vina held the Breath of Kings, and Christen also activated her own weapon. A circle of transparent protective layer appeared around her body, protecting Chen Qi.
"...You are not Silver Spear Pegasus. The fighting spirit of a true Silver Spear Pegasus will never diminish no matter what the situation is."
Just when the battle was about to break out, Mauna slowly walked out of the team and stood in front of everyone. He looked at these knights wearing silver spears and Pegasus armor, frowned slightly, and said in a cold tone:
"You should all know me, the Knights of War. Why are you here? Did the Overseer ask you to come?"
"…Mr. Mauna, you have no right to ask us questions now. You, and the current Linguang family, are nothing but traitors to Casimir."
None of the knights who were exposed by Mainna answered Mainna's questions directly, and they didn't even have the confidence to call Mainna a traitor.
And Ma Enna also heard the helplessness in their voices, and her frown relaxed a little, saying lightly:
"As expected, you are not the Silver Spear Pegasus. Only the Supervisory Committee is qualified to command the Silver Spear Pegasus, and as long as the Silver Spear Pegasus are carrying out the tasks assigned by the Supervisory Committee, they will not choose to conceal their whereabouts. They firmly believe that what they do is for justice."
"And you are confused, standing here unwillingly... It seems that you are forced to become someone's puppet?"
"——There is no point in saying more!" The leading knight didn't want Mainna to continue talking anymore, and immediately forced himself to carry out the task assigned to them by the Chamber of Commerce.
It was just as Maenna said, they were no longer in control. The Commercial Union had too many handles on them, and even among the knights, many relied on the "help" of the Commercial Union to get through the difficulties.
The price they paid was that they had to perform all kinds of shameful tasks for the Chamber of Commerce at critical moments. This was extremely tormenting for the knights who still had chivalry and justice in their hearts, but they had no choice but to do so.
"We will carry out the orders of the Grand Knight and kill all traitors and those who threaten to make Casimir suffer the same fate as Victoria!"
"...You are falling into an abyss with no end in sight, knights."
Facing these knights in front of him, Mainna closed his eyes slightly in pain. He obviously understood who these knights were working for and who was controlling their wills behind the scenes.
Now, there is no room for maneuver, and the only thing I can do is to set them free.
"Mr. Manna, we need a live person so that we can get more useful information. Could you please show some mercy?"
At this moment, Chen Qi saw Mainna's inner struggle. Just one sentence made Mainna suddenly open her eyes. She couldn't help but look at Chen Qi with a look of relief and gratitude.
With Chen Qi's words, Mayenna could finally decide how strong he was and no longer had to suffer. Mayenna turned his gaze to these knights and said calmly:
"...I can handle three. Director Chen Qi, I'll leave the rest to you."
"Don't worry." Chen Qi also nodded to Maenna, and before Chen Qi could continue speaking, Tallulah and Shuangxing took the initiative to come out. After looking at each other, Tallulah took the initiative to speak:
