"Yes, it's you!"
Sissi suddenly looked at Celis next to her, only to see that Celis had the same shocked expression.
"Sister Ling...Sister Ling..."
"It's me, little Celis." Ling Ling smiled and raised her hand to greet Celis, then looked at Sissi, "Is there anything you want to know? Team Leader Sissi."
"me..."
Sissi couldn't ask a single question, but she remembered very clearly that the woman in the black dress was there throughout the entire tour of the tower ruins yesterday!
Who would have thought that the guardian of an intern would be the Sage himself...
Of course, Celis didn't expect this either, and her head was buzzing.
In fact, the main reason why she was shocked was not that Sister Ling was a sage, but because the sage was completely different from what she had imagined.
I thought that the wise man who had lived for three thousand years would be a very old woman, but I didn't expect that the sister Ling who grew up with me would be...
Until now, Celis finally figured out why Sister Ling's appearance had not changed for decades, why she had not aged, and why she could get the official media to accept her as an intern with just one sentence...
It turns out that Sister Ling is the Sage...
"Don't worry, take your time to think and ask. We have plenty of time." Ling Ling said softly. She looked at Celis who was at a loss beside her and said softly, "You don't have to be nervous, little Celis. I will always be your sister Ling."
"Yes, but..."
Celis, who was always slow to react, finally came to her senses and realized how shocking it was that Sister Ling was the Sage.
She was unable to speak for a long time.
“Actually, I didn’t mean to hide it from you.” Seeing Celis’s expression, Ling Ling touched her nose awkwardly. “It’s just because this matter is not really that important… Besides, knowing it in advance is not a good thing.”
"I..."
Celis opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but the words could not come out. In the end, she could only utter, "Sister Ling is really... amazing."
"Not bad." Ling Ling smiled and looked at Xixi who was already dumbfounded. "Team Leader Xixi, how is it?"
"If it were you... I really can't think of what to ask right now." Xixi said with a wry smile, "You were at the scene yesterday, why didn't you come out and clarify it directly?"
"Because it's unnecessary." Ling Ling said calmly, "And...think about it yourself, what would have happened if I had stood up at that time?"
Sissi was silent for a moment, then said, "I understand."
She is not stupid. People who can reach this position have a keen sense of information. With Lingling's slight guidance, Xixi quickly figured it out.
If Ling Ling had come forward at that time, I'm afraid what would have happened would not have been a clarification of the misunderstanding, but rather further evidence.
As long as Chen Sirui withstands the pressure and releases this news, it will only further confirm the existence of this "conspiracy."
The only way to solve this problem is to kill everyone present, but given Lingling's personality, this is impossible.
Besides...as Lingling said, there is no need to do this, she doesn't care about any of this.
"I'm really curious... Sage, what were you thinking at that time?" Xixi sighed and couldn't help but sigh, but then she realized the inappropriateness of this question and hurriedly wanted to remedy it.
But Ling Ling had already answered her, "I thought of an old friend."
"...what?"
Ling Ling looked at Celis deeply and said, "My old friend from thirty days and nights ago, that experimental record is actually real. It was written by my old friend, but it was just written under my name."
"You mean... there really is such a conspiracy?"
Xixi's eyes widened, and she suddenly realized that she seemed to have really unearthed an extremely incredible inside story.
"I can't really explain it. This probably wasn't her original intention, but she embarked on a path of no return... Perhaps this is the mistake that people always make when they look too far ahead and ignore what's at their feet."
The old friend Celis has some similarities with Qualcomm, the difference is that Qualcomm's mistake was stopped by Sister Cher, but she failed to stop Celis' mistake.
Obviously, Lingling was not willing to continue talking about this past event. Xixi felt that if she continued to ask, she should be able to find out the answer, but in the end she chose not to ask.
"I think I've gotten the answer I wanted." Sissi sighed, "So, that's why you said...it's both true and false."
"You heard it all." Ling Ling smiled slightly.
"Thank you for your answer, sage. I need some time to digest it, so I won't bother you any further." Xixi stood up and bowed deeply to Lingling.
Celis beside her also stood up in a daze and saluted Lingling, but when she looked up and saw Lingling's face, a strange feeling emerged in her heart.
After I go back, should I call you Sage or Sister Ling?
"If my few words can help you, that would be great." Ling Ling smiled, paused, and then raised the corners of her mouth with a hint of teasing, "But I'm afraid I'll have to bother you for a while."
"Ok?"
Xixi was startled, and then she heard a sudden noisy sound behind her.
Chapter 264 This time, it’s real
The riot in the Supreme Senate was not the whim of some fanatical believers, so they knew very well where the Sage was now.
After causing the chaos, the Flame Man headed straight for the only gravity elevator in the House that could lead to the top floor, with many fanatical believers following closely behind him.
The Supreme Senate is not a military-controlled area, so most of the city guards here are ordinary people with weapons. Because of the second disaster, humans' attitude towards people with special abilities is still somewhat subtle until today.
At least in this extremely important place, people with special abilities will not be allowed to enter or leave easily.
But the current situation allows the Fire Man to run rampant and no one can stop him.
It’s just that...the gravity elevator, which should have been heavily guarded, was deserted at this moment, and the open elevator door seemed to be welcoming them.
A few doubts flashed through the Flame Man's mind, but the tight time did not allow him to continue thinking.
After all, although the city guards are all ordinary people, the weapons they hold have the power to threaten the lives of people with special abilities, so the Fire Man did not dare to stay there for long.
After a little hesitation, the Fire Man went straight into the gravity elevator, and several fanatical believers also rushed in.
The elevator door slowly closed, leaving the belated city guards looking at the fire man's departure in annoyance.
"..."
After entering the elevator, the Fire Man breathed a sigh of relief and extinguished the flames covering his entire body. His originally crazy expression instantly calmed down.
The fanatical believers nearby still had distorted faces, only two petite figures seemed to have no expression.
The Fire Man glanced at the two girls, frowned slightly, and wondered how even minors were instigated to come in.
If they hadn't entered the elevator, the Fire Man wouldn't mind kicking them out to save their lives.
But now that we are here... we can only wait and see if the wise man is as kind as the rumors say.
However, the Fire Man knew very well that he was doomed to die.
To be precise, the Fire Man is here to die. His death will turn this farce into a real crisis, a crisis for the Sage.
Although I don't know what attitude this mysterious sage will have towards this matter, but... he probably won't let me go.
That's enough.
Unlike the dilapidated gravity elevator in the ruins of the No. 1 ground tower, the gravity elevator in the Supreme Senate obviously had good performance. After a while, the elevator reached the top floor.
The elevator door slowly opened, but a few fanatical believers nearby could no longer wait and rushed straight into it, causing the relatively sturdy elevator door to be dented by the impact.
The fire man's hands were burning with high temperature flames, and he easily pried open the elevator door. Then a crazy look appeared on his face again, and he led the fanatical believers to rush to the deepest part of the top floor, where the Sage was.
"...What's that sound?"
Sissi looked back, wondering what was going on, when suddenly there was a loud bang, the rustic wooden door of the room was blown open, and the fire man attacked the sage.
"It's...her!"
The fire man instantly locked his target on the woman in the black dress. A flash of surprise flashed through his mind at the sage's appearance, but without much hesitation, he attacked directly.
The scorching flames stirred up waves of flames, igniting the surrounding wood chips, and several fanatical believers rushed in, holding homemade weapons, rushing towards Celis and Sissi with bared fangs and claws.
They cannot recognize who the sage is or who to target. They will indiscriminately attack any target they see.
Celis staggered back a few steps in fear. Although Sissi knew that the person with special abilities in front of her could threaten her life, she still remained calm.
Because she believes in the wise man.
She was well-versed in history and knew very well how the wise man saved humanity during those long thirty days and nights.
It is a powerful force that surpasses all people with special abilities and all human weapons.
The explosive flame wave released by the fire man has already hit the position of Lingling. As long as it touches the flame wave, the unstable internal structure and extremely high temperature will instantly erupt, causing a violent explosion.
At the same time, several other fanatics had picked up their weapons and approached the position of Celis and Sissi, one of them even holding a homemade ray gun in his hand.
All this happened in a flash, but Lingling didn't get up from the chair and just watched calmly.
Her indifferent gaze fell into the eyes of the Flame Man. The Flame Man's heart trembled slightly for no reason, and the next moment, he fell to the ground.
"thump!"
A powerful pressure acted on the fire man's whole body. Every joint and muscle of his was suppressed by some force. He couldn't even bite through the poison in his teeth.
Moreover, the flame ignited by the power dissipated instantly at this moment, and the flames of the explosion were extinguished silently without even a spark.
The fanatical believers who were threatening Cecil and Sissi nearby were in a similar situation as the Fire Man. All of their weapons were directly destroyed by some powerful force. Even the ray guns that were ready to fire were forcibly annihilated, and the light beams could not reach more than a few meters away.
"What kind of power is this..."
The fire man moved his eyes with difficulty and looked at the still calm woman in the black dress, feeling an unspeakable fear in his heart.
His mission was to die in front of the sage, but now it seems that this seemingly simple task is difficult to accomplish.
From the time the door was broken until now, not even a breath of time had passed, and everything was over.
"Thank you very much, wise man..."
Xixi said tremblingly, this was the first time she felt the power of an offensive ability user at such a close distance, and it was also the first time she saw the Sage take action - or for the Sage, this was not a move at all.
At this moment, Sissi just wanted to leave this troubled place as soon as possible. She had thought that this interview would be quite difficult, but she didn't expect that the difficult part would be here...
But the wise man seemed to see through her inner thoughts. Before she took a step, the sound of the spirit bell rang out.
"Don't leave yet."
Xixi turned her head and found that the Sage's eyes were actually a little more serious, which was something she didn't see when the Fire Man broke in.
It seems... there are more dangerous enemies?
At this time, Sissi's calves could no longer stop shaking, and little Celis curled up in the corner, holding her head and shivering.
Ling Ling stared at the door closely. At this distance, she could sense that the aura that had been threatening her since yesterday was nearby, right between the top floors of this house.
Could it be that he is the mastermind behind this riot?
No...the person behind Chen Sirui should not be able to invite such a strong person, otherwise, he would not try to frame her in such a despicable way.
"Come out."
Lingling said softly, but she regretted it as soon as she said it.
She shouldn't be so anxious. Saying this would mean admitting failure, that she was unable to find out the other party's background.
But she didn't know why... Lingling's heart suddenly beat a few more beats, and she felt an inexplicable tension, a throbbing that she hadn't felt for several days and nights.
"...it's me."
A silver-white figure slowly walked out of the door, stood at the door holding the door frame, a pair of clear eyes met Lingling's gaze, and the familiar voice made her heart tremble.
Ling Ling opened her mouth, about to utter the long forgotten name, but she quickly calmed down again.
"... again?" Ling Ling took a deep breath, and when she opened her eyes again, she had regained her usual calmness. "I haven't seen this kind of trick for a long time. Come out, I don't want to see you."
Her voice was suppressing some kind of emotion, and even little Celis was surprised. Hiding behind, she saw that Sister Ling's clenched fists were bleeding and her body was shaking slightly.
In Celis's memory, Sister Ling has always been the epitome of gentleness, calmness, and composure. It is rare to see Sister Ling showing any special emotions, let alone such strong emotional fluctuations.
Who is this girl standing at the door?
Celis looked at Luo Xue at the door, and a hint of doubt flashed through her mind.
He looks younger than me. Could he be another orphan adopted by Sister Ling?
"..."
Luo Xue was silent for a while. She glanced at Su Yiyao who was standing behind her with a strange look on her face.
Ling'er doesn't want to see her, but wants to see Su Yiyao?
Do they know each other?
