However, Logos was not in front of Vina, the Crown Prince of Victoria, and was not talking about the scenario where Victoria would be torn apart. This made Vina slightly speechless, and she immediately joined the topic and said:
"Tracy will understand this, and now they must know that we are waiting to pick up Director Chen Qi and the others."
"That means that if we proceed with our rescue plan tomorrow, it will only be more difficult. We must be prepared to face a... fully armed and prepared Sarkaz army from Londinium."
"——Including two kings of the Royal Court." Logos said with a serious face. Although he also possessed the strength to rival the kings of the Royal Court, it was only at the level of self-protection.
He still has some confidence in fighting and delaying the Blood Demon Lord or one of the Scavenger Kings, but it is hard to say whether he can win, at least he will definitely be seriously injured.
But what if the two royal courts attack him together? Logos doesn't know how long he can hold out, can he hold out until everyone rescues Chen Qi? Besides, the others will have to face Manfred and Tracys, as well as some high-end combat power that they don't know about in their intelligence...
"...Dr. Kal'tsit's previous communication said that she will send Rhodes Island's elite team to pick us up tomorrow."
ACE looked at everyone and expressed his own opinion: "If it's fast, they will arrive tomorrow night. If Director Chen Qi has not been released before then, we will proceed according to the original plan after the support team arrives."
"There are many people from other forces around us... Obviously, they share the same goal as us." Scout, a sniper operator, investigated the surrounding situation while everyone was watching the show, and said lightly:
"There are several heavyweights... I think if a fight breaks out, we can make the final move and use their power to rescue Director Chen Qi during the chaos."
"——Then let's settle it this way. Everyone, do you have any objections?"
ACE nodded, and the land ship quickly determined their course of action. However, what they didn't know was that such a scene was also happening in two other places around Londinium.
"Everyone, remember, wait for any movement in the city tomorrow. As soon as there is a disturbance, we will take advantage of the chaos to sneak into Londinium." Abrana also gave the order to everyone in the Deep Pool:
"I will use my Originium skills to eliminate the Sarkaz soldiers on the walls of Londinium, and then use their corpses to attack all enemies with the city defense cannons. This way, we can take the initiative in the chaos."
"So, we can't move until there is unrest in the city because of other forces. We can't afford too many casualties, so we have to take advantage of the chaos. Do you understand?"
"Yes, leader!"
On the other hand, the five emperors’ sharp blades were also discussing countermeasures after watching the play, but they came to almost similar conclusions.
"With our strength, it is still a bit difficult to face the two royal courts of Kazdel, unless the five of us spread the demonic energy throughout Londinium and turn it into a dead city."
"Although this can achieve our goal, we will no longer exist - we are willing to sacrifice our lives for Ursus, but we should also complete the mission with the smallest possible loss. This is a plan of last resort."
"We have previously detected that forces from Rhodes Island and Deep Pond are lingering around. They will definitely get restless. Let's wait until they start attacking the city and then sneak in during the chaos."
The five internal guards discussed it and felt that sacrificing their lives for the country should not be in vain. After all, they could be used in the North in the future. If they were all wasted in Londinium, the loss to the Ursus Empire would be too great.
Therefore, after internal consultation, the three forces all came to the same conclusion - "wait". They would wait for someone to lose patience and attack the city first, and then they would rescue or kill Chen Qi with the least loss.
Thus, a strange balance was created. No one planned to be the first to rescue people. Perhaps this deadlock could only be broken when Rhodes Island's second team arrived for support...
……
"Director Chen Qi, does the ending of Yes, Prime Minister still leave any suspense? Do you plan to shoot a second season?"
At this moment in the city of Londinium, Tracys also asked the same question. He could certainly see that the potential of "Yes, Prime Minister" was more than that. Chen Qi's ending came to an abrupt end, so there must be something else hidden.
However, Chen Qi, who had been learning from Theresa about how to deal with Theresis this week, said without hiding anything:
"If you want to shoot... Of course there is still room for filming, Your Highness, the Regent, but I just have an idea right now, and it's not mature yet."
"I still need some time to think about it. Maybe in the future, I will ask you to shoot the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister", but I haven't thought of it yet."
"——You can stay in Londinium until you figure it out." And Tracys immediately expressed his thoughts, and at that moment he made his first real attempt to keep him:
"Londinium is large enough for the Sarkaz to shelter you and your crew, even until we return to Kazdel."
"——Your Highness, if a screenwriter only looks at the scenery of one place, he will not be able to write a good script."
Chen Qi also laughed dumbly, and immediately rejected Tracys without reservation, and explained:
"Also, it's easy to get bored when writing about the same subject over and over again, and the work you write will be just as boring as rehashing old stuff. I have to work hard to grasp this bit of inspiration. After shooting a few other works, maybe I'll be interested in coming back and working on a work in a field that I'm confident in."
"I think if I have the opportunity to film the second season of "Yes, Prime Minister" in the future, I will definitely look for His Royal Highness the Regent again."
"Why?" Tracys felt a little strange after hearing this, and asked calmly, "You can obviously let someone else play this role."
"——Of course it's because the audience always likes the original cast."
Chen Qi also explained with a smile. Tracys had never thought of this. He only heard Chen Qi continue to say:
"The audience likes familiar faces. I am also a director and need to take care of the audience's senses. Sometimes, the same play will never have the same flavor if a new group of actors are cast."
"Therefore, I will definitely ask you to shoot the series of "Yes, Prime Minister" again. After all, there is probably no other more perfect combination like you, Your Highness the Regent, in the world."
At this point, Chen Qi's implicit meaning was just one - I will have no inspiration as long as I am trapped in Londinium, so you should let us go quickly so that we can still cooperate well in the future.
Of course, Chen Qi did not forget to write a check to Tracy. After all, if Tracy still needs the power of the "Yes, Prime Minister" series in the future, he can only ask Chen Qi and others to shoot. In this way, Tracy will have to try his best to keep Chen Qi and others for future cooperation.
As for the rest... we can only wait and see tomorrow. Chen Qi looked at his abundant reputation points. A movie "Yes, Prime Minister" gave him nearly 700,000 reputation points now. Especially in the few days when all of Victoria and even all of Terra were paying attention to it, Chen Qi's reputation points were pouring in.
However, now, "Yes, Prime Minister" has been banned from broadcasting. Only the residents of Londinium can watch it. Although the high-level officials in other areas have a lot of reputation points, when it comes to making a movie, the benefits will only be high if more people watch it.
Therefore, Chen Qi is still a little dissatisfied with his current reputation value of nearly 700,000, but... when the necessary moment comes, he doesn't mind using all of this reputation value to increase his strength - at least it is better than the casualties of the art troupe.
But it’s not so necessary now... Although Chen Qi is a hamster party, he also knows when to make the best use of things. Now is not the time yet, but when the time really comes, Chen Qi will make up his mind.
On the other side, Tracy saw Chen Qi off. After watching him leave, the Pardoner appeared beside Tracy again and asked:
"General, have you made up your mind? Keep him, release him, or kill him?"
"...He is useful." Tracys thought for a moment, and finally insisted on his decision. He said lightly: "Not only can he not be killed, but he will also be needed by us in the future."
"But if he lives, he will inevitably be feared and spied on by other forces. We need a way to tie his fate to the fate of our Sarkaz."
"Also, we need to provide enough deterrence to prevent other countries from taking action... This deterrence cannot be the use of force. The Sarkaz are not ready for a full-scale war yet."
"——What's the situation around here?"
"There are five inner guards from Ursus, Deep Pool, and people from Rhodes Island." The Pardoner immediately replied, "The whole city is on alert, and they haven't made any moves yet."
"You really think highly of us. If they attack together, I'm afraid we will be stuck in a stalemate." Tracy smiled faintly when he heard this, but at this moment he was confident and knew what to do.
A way to bind the fate of Chen Qi and the Sarkaz... He has already thought of a way.
Chapter 63: An escort team consisting of half of the Sarkaz Legion?
"Everyone, are you ready? Tracy informed us that we will be taken away from Londinium soon. Everyone should move the equipment onto the land ship, put on the gear, and be ready to deal with any emergency."
It was not until the evening of the next day that Chen Qi received the news from Tracys that he would take everyone away from Londinium. Chen Qi hurried back to the crew and looked at the group of people who had already prepared to move. He immediately spoke:
"Tracy said that he would send people to escort us all the way out of the city until we leave the area of Londinium. If he doesn't go back on his word, then after we leave the area of Londinium, we will probably encounter various forces."
"Everyone from Rhodes Island will probably be there to meet us. Remember, once you leave Londinium, no matter what, you must run after the people from Rhodes Island as soon as possible. Don't give them a chance to catch up."
Although Tracy had already told Chen Qi how many people were waiting for them outside, Chen Qi, relying on his small map, actually already knew what kind of monsters were waiting for them outside yesterday.
Therefore, it was no wonder that Chen Qi was unusually nervous. Although he was confident in the fighting power of everyone in the art troupe, if Deep Pool and Ursus attacked at the same time, even with the help of Rhodes Island, it would be difficult for Chen Qi to guarantee that there would be no casualties in the art troupe.
After all, Tracy did say that he would let them go, but after leaving Londinium, the "blood contract" would be over. Chen Qi thought that as long as Tracy could ensure that they left the range of Londinium and would not turn around to chase them, it would be considered that the expected goal had been achieved.
As for the road ahead... we can only take it one step at a time. At least for now, Chen Qi will take everyone in the art troupe to Rhodes Island for a while, so that they can at least reach the next stop safely.
By the way, he can also give the "Ore Disease Cure" he got to Rhodes Island for research to see if there is a way to make it available to everyone in the art troupe. This is Chen Qi's ultimate goal of going to Rhodes Island.
"In short, this time we will follow the Sarkaz escort team. I will walk at the front of the team. If they come for me... I will stand at the front myself, and their spearheads will be directed at me instead of targeting others."
"When the time comes, my safety will depend entirely on you, Captain, Sister Tazi."
In this kind of conflict where the Internal Guards are the combat units, no one from the Art Troupe is qualified to join the battle except Patriot and Tallulah, not even Froststar.
In order to prevent the conflict from affecting other people as much as possible, Chen Qi chose to expose himself and let them come after him who had a system. This was better than letting other people in the art troupe suffer.
"My shield guards and I will protect everyone." The Patriot, who had put on more sophisticated equipment and suppressed his oripathy, answered hesitantly but firmly.
"I will protect you, for sure." Tallulah nodded. She changed into her military uniform again, looking heroic and answering with a firm face.
"You must protect your lover, my daughter. There are many more people targeting him than you think."
At this moment, in Tallulah's mind, Kosice's voice reappeared, and Kosice said with a hint of ridicule:
"As far as I know, after the last two episodes of Yes, Prime Minister were broadcast, Ursus also changed its tactics. Now they are not just coming with the intention of killing him, but have changed their priority to capturing him. If that doesn't achieve their goal, they will kill him."
"How did you know?!" Tallulah's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously asked in her mind, but Kosice just smiled and replied:
"I have my own way, foolish daughter. Although I have been unable to resist because of your lover, the fragments of me scattered across this land can still convey my message."
"And it's not just the five internal guards outside of Londinium... The organization called [Deep Pool] has gathered their elites and is waiting for you outside. As soon as you leave Londinium, they will definitely flock to you."
"Deep pool? What is that?" Tallulah felt that her brain was not enough. She had never heard of this information from Chen Qi, but why did Kosice know it so well?
"It's an organization similar to the former Integration Movement, but their leader is obviously more ambitious." Kosche briefly summarized the [Deep Pool] and smiled faintly: "It's nothing to be afraid of. The leader's level is not even as good as you, my daughter."
"But what I am more worried about is that the leader is also here to 'seduce' Chen Qi."
"Seduction?" Tallulah was slightly stunned, and Kosice immediately replied:
"That's right. With just you, Bodracasti, and the assistance of Rhodes Island, the five emperors' swords may not be able to take you down, but they will definitely inflict heavy damage on you."
"And when you are all exhausted, if [Deep Pool] attacks again, will you still have the strength to fight? At that time, what if the 'leader' who wants that kid uses the benefits he offers to lure that kid into submission?"
"——Chen Qi is not that kind of person!" Tallulah was also surprised when she heard this, and immediately retorted: "He won't do that!"
"He will, because he values you, my foolish daughter." However, Kosice also broke Tallulah's fantasy and said lightly: "For you, he will do everything."
"And if he really followed Shenchi, and you followed Rhodes Island... then, what happens next will be hard to say."
"Although I don't think highly of that leader's mind and tactics, when it comes to women...she is miles ahead of you, my foolish daughter."
"And in the worst case scenario, my daughter, have you ever thought about it? Once the Sarkaz send you out of Londinium and the Blood Pact is declared over, they can turn around and capture you again. Teresis's greed for your lover is no less than anyone else's."
"In order to keep Chen Qi, he will do many extraordinary things on the premise of completing the blood contract - Chen Qi is too useful. For this reason, I have no doubt that he can even give his own sister to your lover."
Of course, this is based on the premise that Tracys knows that his sister has been resurrected, and that he knows his sister, and that "Chen Qi is very useful to the future of the Sarkaz clan."
Kosice could see that the princess was actually doing what he said. She was also prepared. If Chen Qi really asked, Theresa would definitely agree for the sake of the continuation and integration of her race.
"So, what you have to do is to protect your lover. If you don't want him to be taken away by someone else and to be shared with several women in the future, you'd better do your best to protect him this time."
"…I don't need you to teach me how to do things, Kosice."
However, after hearing so much news, Tallulah became much calmer, and her eyes quickly became firm as she answered:
"I will protect the people I love, absolutely."
"Very well, keep up your resolve."
Koschei smiled slightly, and he did his utmost to remind his daughter. However, soon, when Koschei was about to say something to his daughter, he suddenly felt... a voice coming from afar.
This sound... Kosice frowned slightly, and alarm bells suddenly rang in his heart, feeling that something was wrong.
"…Are there troops approaching?"
"What?" Tallulah obviously hadn't reacted yet, but at this moment, she had already heard footsteps coming from afar.
Soon, everyone in the integrated art troupe saw a team of fully armed Sarkaz troops slowly approaching them not far away, and the leader was none other than the Regent - Tracys.
Soon, the Sarkaz Legion, relying on its numerical advantage, surrounded the entire art troupe from both sides. All of a sudden, everyone in the art troupe was on high alert, and the shield guards, led by the Patriot, raised their weapons at the first opportunity, looking ready to go.
Even Chen Qi was surprised by such a tense atmosphere. However, he did not see the hostility from the surrounding Sarkaz and the Tracys in front of him on the small map.
Their display was still the same "gray" neutral. With this thought in mind, Chen Qi immediately said to the people from the art troupe behind him:
"Everyone, don't be nervous! If His Royal Highness the Regent wanted to harm us, he could have done it a long time ago, definitely not now!"
As Chen Qi finished speaking, the Patriot and his shield guards slowly put down their weapons, as if they felt that what Chen Qi said made sense, or perhaps they trusted Chen Qi. In front of Chen Qi, Tracys, who was wearing armor again, walked up to Chen Qi with a normal expression and said lightly:
"You are worthy of being Director Chen Qi. He can make such a calm judgment. If I were surrounded by so many people at once, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stay so calm."
Tracy walked step by step to the front of Chen Qi, and beside him, the Blood Demon Lord and the Scavenger King were also standing behind him. If Tracy was specially prepared to kill Chen Qi with this lineup, then even if Chen Qi went to accompany his sister, he could brag about it for a long time.
"Director Chen Qi, according to our agreement, the escort team is already here. We will escort you and your crew out of Londinium now."
"...Guards?"
However, Chen Qi was slightly stunned for a moment, and subconsciously pointed around. But Tracys nodded slightly, and said in a calm but firm tone:
"Yes, these, including me, are the guards that escorted you out of Londinium."
You've brought out half of Londinium's fighting power, right? You call this a guard? I believe you're going to fight the Inner Guard + Deep Pool + Rhodes Island!
For a moment, even Chen Qi was frightened by Tracy's behavior this time. He began to be a little confused about what Tracy was thinking... Did he really want to use this team to fight Rhodes Island, Deep Pool and the Internal Guards outside the city?
If a fight breaks out... *Yan Nation's Essence*, should I ask Chen Huijie and the others to calm down and run as far as they can? If a fight breaks out, I'm afraid it will start the First Terra World War!
In the distance, at the palace, after Theresis took away most of the elite Sarkaz, leaving only some pardoners, and Manfred commanding the remaining half of the Sarkaz in the city to defend the city, Theresia, who was no longer monitored by her, also watched the scene from the height of the palace.
At this moment, Theresa's face also showed a faint smile, and she murmured to herself:
"That's what I said, Director Chen Qi. Now, the time is not far away for you to be protected by Brother Wang or even the Sarkaz race."
"You will become a friend of the Sarkaz. In the future... I will look forward to the day when we will rely on your power again to make the Sarkaz change and reintegrate into this world."
