However, the captain's brain was quite quick. He couldn't tell right from wrong for a moment, so he immediately changed the subject: "No matter what you say, in this war, you and I are enemies after all—"

"This is the nth time I have repeated what I said before... Oh, do you remember what I just said?"

Of course he remembered, because what Anser said was - they were not worthy of being Anser's enemies.

"My enemy has always been Ivora, and this is the nature of this war."

The regent looked down at them with a slightly condescending look, but they could not refute.

Because this is the truth. This war... is nothing more than a compromise between Hydra and Feasting Flame. It is another form of struggle that resulted from the boy in front of him not wanting to start a true destruction that could burn the empire to ashes.

Suddenly, the captain understood.

This war itself... is one of the greatest manifestations of Hydra's kindness.

"Besides, it's not you who make the decision - you just need to convey the message. I said that, didn't I?"

The captain, who had nothing to say, remained silent for a long time. Finally, he could only hesitantly ask, "Are you... going to let us go back?"

"What else? Let you all die here?" Anser tilted his head and asked, "Do you think your death here will mean anything to me?"

"Even if we are not your enemies...will you watch your Qi Shou get into a bitter battle?"

The experienced captain still maintained his final caution at this juncture and was unwilling to give Anser enough trust.

Perhaps it was experience, or perhaps it was intuition, but he always felt that if he did what Ansel said, he would pay a very painful price.

"Oh...you mean A'Luo? That's okay. I never worry about her."

Anser couldn't help laughing and said, "Falling into a tough battle... You are quite good at imagining."

This kind of confidence is the best answer. The captain knows that he should make a decision.

Originally, he and his companions had prepared themselves for certain death, but they never expected the situation to turn around so suddenly. First, the regent, who was above everyone else, came to see them in person, and then he proposed some incredible deal. What was even more ridiculous was... they seemed to have been persuaded.

No matter how you look at it, there is no reason to refuse.

The only enemy in Hydra's eyes was Feast Flame. This war whose highest combat power did not exceed level four was as boring as a child playing house in his eyes. He also believed that his Qi Shou could not fail, so he did not care at all about how the war would proceed, which also meant that Hydra did not care about their actions at all.

He just wanted an opportunity, an opportunity to quietly reach a deal with the revolutionary army without being discovered by Ivora, and their team was the best opportunity.

Regardless of whether the deal is beneficial to the revolutionary army or not, they are indeed just messengers. The decision is made by the big shots above. If they agree to it, not only can they save their lives, but they will also not have to bear any psychological burden.

"…Just, passing on a message?"

After a long time, the team leader asked cautiously: "Convey your intention to the legion commanders? Have you ever thought about how to contact them later? If you have a way to contact them... why do you need us as a bridge?"

"It's true that you can be cautious, but being more cautious would be a bit too much."

The solemn snake-headed cane tapped the ground again. Although nothing happened, the slightly dull sound still made the revolutionaries' hearts stop for a moment.

Just by speaking with a slightly cold tone, His Royal Highness the Regent, who had just behaved so gently, instantly made people feel extremely awed and even terrified.

"Do you think it's necessary for me to tell you all this? If you're really so reluctant... I can understand."

Anser rested his hands on his cane: "Then follow A Luo's idea and find her a torturer to play with you."

"..."

Five minutes later, the team leader rubbed his wrists and looked at the heavy shackles that had been untied on the ground, feeling extremely complicated.

They clearly came with the intention of dying, but they were arrested before they even reached Donggang. It would have been fine if they were arrested, but they were released the next moment and even became the other party's messenger.

He still hasn't figured out what's going on, he just feels that it's eerily logical.

"And this, don't forget to bring it with you."

As those leisurely words came, a strange alchemical device that the captain had never seen before, which looked like a bird, slowly landed in his hands.

"If you're worried that I might do something, it doesn't matter if you don't take it." Anser said, "If you insist on thinking that I'm so low-class, then I can't help it."

The team leader looked at this strange alchemical device for a long time, and then asked in a low voice: "You don't need any so-called sincerity, do you?"

"It's true that it's not necessary, but you...you must need something better to get by."

Anser gave an answer that surprised him again: "I released him like this, and he kept saying that he had reached a deal with Hydra, but he didn't get any actual results... But people will be suspicious of him. If he's unlucky, it won't be surprising if he's dealt with."

The team leader subconsciously turned his head and saw the boy's gentle and brilliant smile:

"So just think of it as a reward from me to those who are about to die."

"..."

Anther Hydra, Regent…

The captain who accepted the machine always felt as if he had some kind of throbbing at that moment, and thought with a complicated expression:

You really are an extremely dangerous guy...

"What did you see in total, Miss Saint?"

After letting the revolutionaries go, Ansher arrived outside a church in a flash.

"I didn't see much... because those people didn't produce any huge sin waves just now. I only heard some things."

As Xin said this, he followed Anser into the church, thinking that Mr. Devil would not come to the church again...

In fact, she no longer had much resistance to this kind of thing. After all, she had already gone to the extent of inciting the redeemed to destroy the church. It could only be said that Miss Saint's bottom line was falling into an increasingly unpredictable abyss.

"Information about the main force, the overall progress of the Revolutionary Army's march, and some relatively powerful extraordinary people... Don't you have any of these?"

"nothing."

Mr. Devil showed a slightly disappointed look: "Really? Miss Xin is really not good enough."

Xin tilted his head and responded very seriously: "The power God gave me cannot be abused casually, Mr. Devil, I am very powerful!"

"Hahahaha... I was just joking. That information is of no use to me anyway."

Anser laughed heartily. Xin's ears moved slightly when he heard this, but he still kept silent.

There was no one in the church at this time, neither the priest nor the nun was there, and there was always a strange atmosphere in the church.

"The questions I want to ask are not these, there is only one."

Anser found a random chair and sat down, half squinting his eyes and staring at the Ouroboros statue on the pulpit.

"Their commander, their superior, who sent them here, this matter... Miss Xin should have seen it clearly."

"Oh! I know that. I read it from Mr. Steel's heart."

As soon as there was an opportunity to take credit, Xin immediately became active: "That person is called... 'Lord Leng Zhu' by them."

"Cold loach..."

Ansel whispered to himself. He was not surprised by the true identity of this revolutionary army because he had known it for a long time.

This answer is not so much for himself as it is for the person who can help him find the answer.

As Anser expected, Xin Yi asked curiously, "Mr. Devil, Mr. Devil, why do you want to let them go? Do you really want to cooperate with the Revolutionary Army?"

"There are too many reasons. Although most of them have nothing to do with the Revolutionary Army itself, there are many good things and opportunities that can be used on this platform. I won't waste them. Forget it... I'll just tell you something you can understand right away."

The devil hummed a tune in the church, his tone brisk and confident: "Our Ms. Lian De should have handed over all the data about A Luo's defense system to the Revolutionary Army a long time ago. After so long, they should have been studying it and may have even found many ways to crack it."

"Then the question comes..."

Under Xin's thoughtful gaze, Anser said meaningfully:

"Why, those friends from the Revolutionary Army, who didn't even know what A'Luo's creation looked like, took it back as if it were a treasure. Did they really think they had something to show for it?"

Chapter 82: God's Power

In this church filled with a strange atmosphere, Anser and the Saint chatted for a long time. She floated behind Anser, lazily lying on the back of the chair, her face almost touching Anser's.

After that duel, Xin's enthusiasm increased a little. The Saint Lady, who used to get along with Anser very closely, now understood what distance was - but in the opposite way.

I don't want to stay away from Ansel because of the so-called sense of distance. On the contrary, I want to stay with Ansel even more, even though I know that men and women who are not close to each other should not be so close to each other.

"Mr. Devil..."

"Ok?"

Xin looked at the Ouroboros statue on the pulpit and whispered, "You are not angry about what I did."

Ming Furo went to find Xin at Anser's suggestion, trying to solve Lian De's problem. To some extent, it can even be said that Anser asked Xin to help Ming Furo.

But Xin did not tell Ming Fuluo the truth. Instead, he took this opportunity to threaten Lian De, who had nowhere to go.

Cheating on the woman who was most important to Anser was also against Anser's ideas. If it were anyone else, they would probably be dead by now. But Xin was still lying beside Anser. Not to mention punishment, Anser didn't even show any sign of being angry.

"Angry? Why should I be angry?"

Anser flipped through the church books taken down from the pulpit and said slowly, "Didn't I make my attitude clear from the beginning? I won't interfere too much in A'Luo's affairs. In fact, I have already done too much now."

"Not realizing you were going to lie...that's her problem."

The devil narrowed his eyes slightly, and the imperceptible emotional fluctuations in his tone were so vivid to Xin.

Mr. Devil... was a little disappointed? Because Miss Doll didn't realize that I had lied to her? So Mr. Devil suggested that Miss Doll come to me, in order to train Miss Doll?

This discovery made Xin a little unhappy. She knew that Ming Fuluo was the most important person to Anser, but... But now, shouldn't she be the more important person? Didn't the evil devil do so many bad things just to make her fall? How could she be distracted to look at others?

But this little thing was harmless, and the dark emotions in Miss Saint's heart quickly dissipated, but perhaps it was also because of something... darker.

Because Ming Fuluo disappointed Ansel - this made Xin happy.

"Don't think it's the victim's fault, Mr. Devil."

The saint held the back of the chair with both hands, resting her chin on the back of her hands. Her mature and beautiful face showed the expression of a well-behaved cat. She said in a gentle voice: "After all, Miss Doll doesn't know either, so why should I lie to her?"

"So you mean you want me to blame you?" Ansel turned his head slightly, and Xin was looking at his profile at this time, and the tips of their noses almost touched.

"Yes."

Xin said as if it was a matter of course: "If Mr. Devil wants to blame someone, of course he should blame me."

Her tone unconsciously rose slightly, and her holy blue eyes were filled with childish and morbid expectation and longing.

"After all, it was me who did this, and it has nothing to do with Miss Doll. Mr. Devil should be more concerned about... me."

"..."

Anser stared at the eyes that had been looking increasingly strange recently. After a long silence, he suddenly laughed, "Miss Saint, so even though you knew you were going to do something bad, you still chose to deceive A'Luo?"

"Bad things?" Xin tilted his head slightly downwards. "As long as it can redeem Mr. Devil, that kind of thing doesn't matter."

Whether it is evil or righteous... for Xin now, the so-called lies are not worth mentioning at all. On the road to redeeming Ansher, doing anything is normal.

"So you want to redeem me in this way?" Anser asked with some amusement, "By deceiving Luo?"

Xin shook his head: "If it was Mr. Devil, he would have known what I was going to do."

She stared at Anser's long eyelashes and suddenly smiled faintly: "So, Mr. Devil, you can't fool me like this."

The previous events made Xin realize that he was too arrogant. Even if he did not overestimate himself, he underestimated Anser and thought that there was something that Anser had not considered... This kind of thinking should not exist.

She should keep in mind that "Mr. Devil may have realized this" before making a choice and judgment.

If I keep this kind of thinking, I might create an information gap with Anser in unexpected places, and when to be honest and when to conceal it... is also something I have to consider.

Based on the image he had in Anser's eyes, he would reveal little bits of information that were insignificant but in line with his image, while hiding the truly important secrets...

This is what you taught me, Mr. Devil, I won’t let you down.

Definitely not... like Miss Doll.

"Besides, isn't it very unfair to Miss Doll that Mr. Devil does this?"

She said righteously, "If Miss Doll knew that you said this about her, if she knew that you suggested her to find me even though you knew I would lie to her, Miss Doll would be very sad."

"She won't be sad, and Miss Saint..."

Anser stared at the beautiful face so close to him, and advised very seriously: "You'd better not show this attitude or say similar words in front of Luo. I'm worried that she will not be able to help but hit you."

The tea aroma in this tea... Did Xin learn it by herself? What strange things did this saint use her talents for?

Mr. Devil discovered that Miss Saint’s talent in depravity was somewhat beyond his expectations - he had realized this a long time ago, but Xin’s "talent" was even more beyond his expectations.

Rather than being a holy and bright saint, it seems that being a scheming bad woman is more suitable for her.

Well... judging by what Xin did after she met Anser, she obviously can be called a bad woman.

However, the bad woman was not so completely bad now, or rather... she didn't know how to be completely bad, so she looked at Anser strangely: "Why? Am I not speaking for Miss Doll?"

"Do you really want to speak for her?" Ansher asked back.
