A teleportation array flashed by, and Niya appeared again in the desert
Really, wherever you go, you can encounter power disputes
Before Niya arrived on this continent, she was already caught up in the vortex of power. He is the heir of the group, and his younger brother really wants to replace this position. However, Qing'er also knows that his brother likes traveling rather than sitting in the office reviewing documents, and considering brotherhood, he has not taken any extreme measures.
Ah! I almost forgot! Tail! Tail
Just after sighing for two seconds, I remembered that I still had a task to complete, so I immediately put aside these irrelevant things and started doing my own task.
But is it really not related at all
Really, which one of you is the target? Even if you are involved in a power dispute, let me understand why! "Xie Yun complained loudly after Niya left.
After a moment of silence, finally someone spoke up, "It shouldn't be me. My father is a count, and besides me having inheritance rights, there is only one younger brother in my family who is seven years younger than me. He probably doesn't understand the inheritance of power. And my father should be considered a nobleman in the palace, without any fiefdoms, so there's nothing to argue about
The speaker is Chater.
It seems that we have really hidden something deep here, "Xie Yun sighed." And you guys? Don't hide anything, let's all talk about it together. Anyway, I'm just a commoner and haven't offended anyone. Even if I receive commissions to stay by Ellie's side often, I won't be treated like this
Speaking of which, she turned to look at Ellie and said, "As for Ellie, she... um... used to live in a deep mountain and study with her teacher. After coming out, she went to Blue Moon Academy and probably doesn't have any enemies
Encountering this incident, Xie Yun's calm mind from his previous days as a mercenary began to take effect again.
Because he was not particularly clear about Ellie's background, Xie Yun directly fabricated an identity for Ellie, and the fiefdom was also similar.
I am a civilian
Me too
The speakers this time are the fire mage and the archer.
Xie Yun turned his gaze to the remaining two people.
One of them touched his neck and then said, "My father is just a baron with a small city as his fiefdom. However, I have two older brothers and it's not up to me to compete for power
You're the only one left. "Everyone else's gaze was focused on the swordsman who hadn't spoken yet. This swordsman is called Hou Mu.
After a period of silence, Hou Mu finally spoke up, "Perhaps it's really me. My father is a duke, and he has a considerable fiefdom. Recently, my father has been suffering from a strange illness, and even hiring a priest has not been able to cure him. According to the priest's diagnosis, if he doesn't receive effective treatment, he can only live until the end of the year at most. I came to this school not only to avoid power disputes, but also to find a way to treat that disease, but I haven't found it yet. My father has three sons, and I am the second. To be honest, I don't want to inherit, it's too tiring. So I have been supporting my brother Hou Lei. This one shows its face first But my younger brother has too much ambition and always wants to sit in that position. So far, my brother and I have been assassinated at least ten times
It seems... "Xie Yun's words were interrupted before he could finish.
A white light flashed and an extra piece of paper appeared on the ground. There were only two lines of words hastily written on the paper
I forgot to tell you that the Ice Eternal Seal I just released was enhanced by reducing the sealing time, which means if you can't leave the island before the sun sets, you'll be in trouble~"At the bottom of the paper, a small round face was drawn sticking out its tongue.
A gentle breeze blew by, and it floated like a leaf. After circling around in front of everyone, it drifted into the distance
Everyone continued to look up and saw that the distance between the sun and the horizon was not much left, and there were still fifteen minutes left to hold on. Xie Yun reacted the fastest, immediately carrying Ellie on his back and running. The others also pulled their legs and ran, without carrying anything on their backs, but their speed exceeded Xie Yun's.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that Niya's time was calculated based on where she was, and now it's at most three o'clock in the afternoon
On the ship, after Xie Yun placed Ellie in the lounge, everyone continued the unfinished topic.
When you were assassinated before, no evidence was found
Yes. But what does this prove? "Hou Mu pointed to the wreckage of the scroll on the table, which was quickly collected by Chat before fleeing.
Yeah... but he can play assassination, can't you play counter assassination? "Xie Yun's smile looked a bit... creepy
Hou Mu shrank his head and said, "Isn't this too good
What's wrong? There are too many nobles who do this. If you want to live safely, you really have to do it. Otherwise, you might die at home someday. "Chater helped Xie Yun answer this question.
After patting Hou Mu on the back and comforting him, Xie Yun continued, "In a sense, we should be on the same side. After experiencing such a strange situation, I can still survive. Your brother must think we are your confidants, at least the few of us who do not have titles are very likely to be, so we are also likely to be assassinated. So, I can help you. When we go back, take us to meet your brother and discuss countermeasures. I don't want to fall asleep forever because there is a sword between us
After hearing Xie Yun's analysis, people around him also nodded in agreement with his ideas.
Rest first, today is really tiring, "Xie Yun waved to the others and walked towards his own lounge. The others also walked towards their rooms mechanically, and today's excitement was too great for them. The confrontation of the curse was not something they could see every day, let alone the excellent sound and light effects this time
Just as they had eaten something and were lying in bed, the room suddenly lit up.
Strange, did I turn off the lights clearly? "Xie Yun patted his head for fear." I'm not going to suffer from amnesia, am I
I raised my hand and touched the switch of the magic lamp next to me. The light is turned off
Realizing something was wrong, Xie Yun immediately rushed onto the deck and found that many people had already gathered here.
Did you encounter a mermaid? It seems like I can try soaking a mermaid back... "Xie Yun muttered to himself, and the brightness around him had doubled.
Hmm? Isn't that right? Is this... a light element? What's going on
