Scepter of Thorns

Chapter 95 94. Rhododendron

Click, click.

He woke up to the sound of the clock ticking.

The dark blue hard cloak was draped over the armrest of the sofa. Keqi Puerda sat up straight, took off his military cap with a cross, and stared at it absent-mindedly.

Dreaming again.Messy tasks piled up in his mind, and his reason reminded him that it was time to return to the human world.

Anyway, let's leave the devil world first.He sighed, packed his things in a daze, and headed to the Holy See of the Human World.

The Holy See has become the general command of the war, and a group of light knights are about to be sent to the branch.The cloak cut off all his aura, and Ke Qie sneaked in silently.

Now, he is Purda the Reticent.

The door was knocked in a specific rhythm, Osa gently pulled the latch, and the hem of the cloak slipped into the room.She didn't ask where the other party was, but said bluntly, "I have read the undercover list you gave me last time, but I still want to ask one thing clearly."

[how? ] The silencer tilted his head, [Incorrect information? ]

"Camus, that's the purple-eyed person you've seen. Is there something wrong with him?" Osa asked seriously, staring at the notebook in the opponent's hand, not letting go of any tiny movements.

The Reticent's hands clenched in his sleeves.

[No. ]

"you sure?"

[I am sure. ]

I'm sorry, he said in his heart, I can't expose people from the demon world, because I am a baroness, and even more so, a demon.

Osa's eyebrows were smoothed, and she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.If he was usually silent, he would definitely be able to notice her strangeness, but at this moment, he himself was in a state of uneasiness.

"We have already caught an undercover agent, he is a human priest who has been controlled by the demons for many years." Osa said still a little uneasy, "but I don't think it's right, I think he is just a shield pushed by the demons, there must be someone... "

She suddenly fell silent, and the silent man gave her a puzzled look.

"I have to take a leave." Osa hurriedly changed the subject, "There are affairs to be dealt with in the army, so you are responsible for my shift during this time."

Did she know something? !

Ke Qie became alert instantly, this woman usually doesn't like to talk about things, she always likes to hide in her heart.If she wanted to go back to the barracks, she would definitely meet General Spade. Would they discuss something? !

Did she begin to doubt herself?

It's best not to be like this, or you'll be in big trouble... The silencer's heart trembled, [How long will it take? ] "It depends on the situation, I will notify you when the time comes."

[All right. ]

Three days later.

When Camus came to the classroom, he glanced at the next table and found that it was unbelievably clean.

"Where's Osa?"

"It seems that someone in her family is sick, and she just left a few days ago." Mike replied carelessly, "By the way, what have you been doing these days?"

"I have relatives who are coming to live near the Holy See, and I have arranged for them." Camus frowned slightly, and then gestured to the shadow.

A shadow fled away without a sound.

The Silent Man who was wandering around the outer edge of the Holy See paused, and then quickly walked in the opposite direction.His movements became faster and faster, as if he was being chased by something, and finally disappeared into a floating light.

Valentine, who followed closely behind, was leaning against the darkness, his slightly slanted military cap casting a shadow on his side face.He stared at his hands, the feeling of the hard cloth sliding past seemed to remain, but the pain was hotter than the bright sun above his head, burning hot on his heart.

He doesn't want to see him.

On the other side, Keqie lowered his head in frustration. He should have thought that Valentine would follow, and now he could not return to the Holy See at all.

He might as well go to the Duchess Party in the Heaven Realm to explore the wind, he thought.

Celu sorted out the new documents and prices, and then submitted the information to Feng Po.The other party praised, "You have finally started to change yourself."

"Before, I was too dull and didn't understand the kindness of my mother-in-law." She smiled, but this smile seemed to be cut by a knife, which made people feel uncomfortable. "One cannot be innocent for a lifetime."

She retreated obediently, but the toilet paper was slightly clenched, as if she was holding something.

If Feng Po looked carefully, she would find that something was missing from her desk.If she had been 30 years younger, she would have disposed of those disappearing papers long ago.

But she didn't.

So she didn't know that in the last ten days, a half-breed illusionist from the Senna family jumped into the well in his sleep.He had been plagued by sleepwalking, which seemed an accident, if the illusionist hadn't been eligible to inherit.In fact, if the heir of the pure blood line is too incompetent, then the offshoot is eligible to inherit the throne, and the original pure blood heir will be abolished and exiled.

Cellu pursed her lips.

The cuckoo will push other chicks out of the nest to monopolize the love and food given by the mother, and it seeks more opportunities for its own survival.So as long as those mixed-blood heirs die, she is the only choice, isn't it?

She walked out of the cold basement, and a mirror embedded in the corridor skipped her figure.Selu suddenly turned her head and took a look. The woman with short blond hair showed an evil smile in the mirror. Her eyes were faintly black, as if a layer of shadow had been cast over her.

Rhododendron, the cuckoo that occupies the magpie's nest.

She was momentarily confused, is the person in the mirror herself?Or a demon that occupied the body named Seru and was bred by her own hands?

"I am you, Seru." The man opened his lips, "We are the same person, I will bear the pain you have suffered, and the honor you have won will be the pride of both of us."

She nodded blankly, the well-hidden cowardice in her character protruding from the soil.The person in the mirror noticed it, and the black at the corners of his eyes smudged like ink.

"Now you have to take over the affairs of the Duchess of Heaven. You are the heir, Feng Po is just taking over for you temporarily. She... won't be in control for long, listen to my Seru, I won't Harm you."

"We are the same person." Selu tilted her head, and the emotion in her eyes suddenly subsided, and finally condensed into a deep coldness, "Except Feng Po, I have no relatives, no reason, no power and no power. But I have two Brothers and sisters, their role is to be admired and worshiped by others, as for me, as long as I remain timid and stupid, it will be fine."

She laughed silently, her face contorted by the smile.

"Looks like we have a long way to go," she said to herself. "Now, it's time for work."

The Baroness Party in the Heaven Realm is mainly concentrated in the dark. It is an anarchic organization, and all connection exits are controlled by the illusionist family.Selu walked in the empty space where the illusion spread, dealt with the fluctuations and traces of every exit, and at the same time closely monitored every move of the people in the space.

The exit of a space was pulled, and someone wanted to go in.

She stepped on the edge of layers of illusion, and the trace of another her in the illusion has become more and more obvious.The door was trembling, she pressed it lightly with her thumb, and the door of space obediently retreated to both sides. The person in the black and blue cloak was caught off guard and almost fell into the door.

"Welcome, the lady from the Demon Realm." She parted her red lips and giggled, "Is there anything you want to communicate with me?"

[My identity in the human world is in danger. Lieutenant Osa who is in my group may already have doubts about me. I hope the baroness in the heavenly world can help me, and I am very grateful. ]

"Lieutenant Osa?" Selu quickly flashed everything about this woman in her mind, "I see, I will deal with this matter as soon as possible within a week. In exchange, please tell the truth that you are in the witch world Lord's number and position."

[Doc4. ] The Reticent wrote, [Working under Countess Lilith, serving as a military doctor in the Legion, but stationed in the Demon Realm, and does not participate in the Human World War. ]

"Doctor... I know your branch. You were the main beneficiaries of the Countess' medical exchange back then."

[Yes.We very much hope that the two worlds of Heaven and Demon can live in peace, not only because of the morality of doctors, but also because of the complementary strengths of the Heavenly Clan and the Demon Clan.The power of the demons is too violent and needs another kind of gentle power to appease; while the power fluctuations of the celestials are too weak, and they need something to stimulate them to be most effective.We, the Lady of the Demon Realm, feel guilty about initiating a war of aggression against the human world, but I still hope that the Lady of the Celestial Realm can treat this matter fairly, because we are against war, so please don't be prejudiced against the Demon Race. ]

"We know this. The Countess can only become strong based on the trust of all walks of life, and we will definitely abide by it." Selu tentatively said, "However, the ruler of the Demon Realm is a war faction, and the Count Lilith, the leader of the Demon Realm, is the leader of the Countess. It must not be easy. I want to take the time to go there and discuss with Earl Lilith in person, can you do it?"

The Reticent thought for a moment.He thinks that Lilith also needs to talk to the other duchesses. If she stays put, once Caesar’s army wins, the revolution in the world will be much more difficult. opportunity.

[good. ] He finally replied, [Count Lilith has always wanted to see you too.But I believe you have also seen that I am wearing the latest breath-blocking clothes developed by the Countess, which will completely separate the wearer from the surrounding environment, and even make it impossible to speak.When my identity is confirmed by Lieutenant Osa, I will start to arrange this matter. ]

"Okay." Selu's eyes were clear, "It seems that Earl Lilith's situation is complicated, and even the people around her are closely monitored, so she has to pretend so carefully."

The Reticent didn't say much, he directly exited the space.

Selu packed some things and left the illusion.On the bright side, the Duchess merged with Spade, but that was only a small part of this huge organization. She hurried back to the military tower, and a Spade came to tell, "Miss Selu, Your Majesty the Heavenly King invites you to go tonight Seine Palace sit down for a while."

A card of spades trimmed with gold was handed to her.

This is a private order, Selu glanced at it, it means that the king of heaven did not meet a subject in a formal way, but met in private, and entered the palace through a side door.The gold-edged spades handed out during the war is more meaningful than usual. Could it be that the other party has doubts?

Edward Daulsas.She chewed on this person's name carefully. During the Spade Revolution, her older sister Celine gave him a lot of help, and then gave him part of the Countess—although she knew that the latter was just a cover.However, after Edward ascended the throne as the Queen of Heaven, he did not intervene in the affairs of the Countess, but let it develop, which can be regarded as a reward for Celine's sacrifice in the revolution.

Coincidentally, the matter of the silencer was also resolved together.She thought, the silent person was recommended by the queen of the demon world to the heaven as a communicator between the two worlds. In order to give him a legal identity, Feng Po reported some of his forged information. Lieutenant's group.This shows that the king of heaven may not have discovered his true identity, and it also proves that the main god is not omniscient and omnipotent.

That's good.
