wizards start with occlumency

Chapter 231 Intermission
The silhouetted shadow of the behemoth appeared on the big screen.

Although I can't see the whole thing clearly and I don't know what it is, but just by looking at the outline, I know that this thing is not easy to mess with.

It is not comparable to the Level 3 Brood and the Level 5 Brood.

Even if the light of annihilation hits it, it may not even be qualified to scratch it.

Compared with it, the "Yuni" star battleship is like a larger ant in front of an elephant.

No need to step on it, just breathe in.

I'm afraid even the ants can't bear it.

Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, once this behemoth launches an attack, the "Yunni" and the micro-legions on it will encounter a life-or-death crisis.

This mission has progressed to the moment when the behemoth appears, and it can be declared over.

It is not considered a failure. After all, there is still a lot of evidence that proves that the micro-corps has actually investigated the Zerg ecological structure, abnormal changes and causes of mutations in the mission world.

It can even give a lot of evidence that embarrasses the institutions under the Supreme Council.

However, this mission was not a success.

Because they have to run away from the behemoth and save their lives before they can follow up.

How can a deserter have the dignity to claim success?

"Don't run!"

Shandora looked extremely solemn when she saw this scene. After thinking carefully, she said briefly.

After the words fell, she closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and leaned back, her whole body's energy and energy instantly sluggish.

She just wanted to practice herself, unify her thoughts and establish the same understanding with the friends she valued, and then try to assess and recruit a few new partners.

Why is it that just when the mission is progressing smoothly in the middle, it suddenly becomes full of twists and turns?

No wind, no wave.

There must be a reason, right?

So, what is the reason?

"You all go out for a while, I need to take care of some personal things."

Sandora opened her eyes, her tone was quite tired, and she was not as energetic as she was when she proposed three additional goals during the meeting.

Wait until Link, the round-faced young man, the wavy blond hair, and the crew-cut brother walk out of the cockpit.

Talling also thoughtfully closed the cabin door, opened the sound barrier, and checked whether there was monitoring and recording.

Shandora ordered: "Contact Ms. Lissandra."

"Yes."

Talling immediately sent a communication request to the first emergency contact.

"Oh, my lovely daughter, in her busy schedule, actually thought of me, a poor old mother who has no one to accompany her. I am so happy."

A face without a trace of pink or pink appeared on the big screen, but it was stunningly beautiful. Every smile could touch people's hearts.

It's just that the tone and manner of speaking are really exaggerated.

"Ms. Lysandra, please explain what happened to your daughter during her mission."

Shandora braced herself and asked seriously with a straight face.

"What happened? Did something happen? Oh, my God."

Lissandra's beautiful face suddenly showed panic and concern, "My lovely daughter is not injured, right? This is really... worrying to death."

Sandora rolled her eyes: "Can you please stop talking to me in this tone? Please, I am your daughter, not your shockingly handsome husband who fills your heart and eyes."

"Oh heh heh..."

Lissandra covered her mouth and smiled sweetly, "Is my lovely daughter jealous? Mua... give me a kiss, mommy loves you the most, baby."

"Be serious!"

Sandra slapped the armrest of the seat suddenly, "I'm talking to you about business."

"you say!"

Lysandra seemed to be taken aback and quickly put on a serious face.

"Are these things your fault?"

Shandora asked unceremoniously, "You just want me to suffer setbacks and make me realize that I can't accomplish anything by myself, right?"

After hearing this, Lysandra stopped teasing her daughter with a sneer at the corner of her mouth:
"It seems that my lovely daughter still doesn't understand what her mother means.

My mother’s original intention was to say that if you want to succeed without the resources and support of your family, you will experience too many twists and turns and too many ups and downs.

Grassroots rise is not that easy.

Perhaps the process may be magnificent, full of heroic colors, and exciting.

However, have you ever thought about how much hardship, how much pain, how much life and death there are? "

After a pause, Lysandra sarcastically said:
"Also, do you think that the powerful people in the big families at the college headquarters are all fools and can't see the so-called ratio of wise men in the past 50 years?
Do you think they are all brainless people who can develop their family to its current size?
Why do you think they let the younger members of the family just live and die without seeking advancement?

Think about the reasons carefully.

The world is not how you see it, it is what it is! "

Sandora's eyes dodge, and she subconsciously avoids these questions. Instead, she asks with a stern expression, "I'm just asking you, are you responsible for the accidents I encountered on this mission?"

"Even if it was me."

Lysandra nodded lightly, "But so what?"

"How can you do this!"

Sandora was filled with anger and rage.

"Why can't I do this? You are my daughter. You can be careless, naive and wanton, but I won't allow my mother's slap to wake you up and prevent you from rushing forward on a wrong path until you finally walk into the wrong path. Abyss?"

"You're going too far! You haven't considered my feelings at all!"

"The more outrageous things are yet to come, you haven't seen them yet."

"Humph!"

Shandora had a few words with her mother. Looking at the behemoth getting closer and closer, she had to suppress her anger and forcibly calm down. She said in a slightly unnatural tone: "Clean up all these accidents and so on. My mission is back on track."

"Ho ho ho..."

Lissandra burst out laughing, "My silly daughter, you really believe it. You think too highly of your mother. At most, I have some influence within the radiation range of the college, how can I affect the Zerg race?" ?”

"Then what's going on?"

Sandora asked in confusion.

"These?"

Lissandra smiled and said, "Of course these are traps deliberately set by the enemies of the academy. It's just that they didn't expect that you would ask for this mission, which attracted my attention. Otherwise, things would go according to their plan. If it continues to develop, the college will be in a lot of trouble."

"is it?"

Shandora knew that her mother would not deceive her about this kind of thing, so she asked, "What should we do next?"

Lissandra asked, "Except for the mission, have you finished what you wanted to do?"

Sandora thought about it seriously, frowned and said, "I'll just finish it."

"Then it's none of your business. Leave the rest to me. Just go back by yourself."

A hint of coldness flashed in Lissandra's eyes, "If you dare to bully my daughter, these bugs will never come back alive."

"Okay, try to be as ruthless as possible and help me vent my anger."

Although she was a little disappointed, Sandora still agreed.

After hanging up the video communication with her mother, she ordered Taling to invite several friends into the cockpit.

"Due to force majeure, the mission ends here and we are about to return."

Facing the looks of her four companions, Sandora said, "The specific reason involves confidentiality, so I cannot tell you."

"It's okay, we understand."

The wavy blonde was the first to speak out in support of Sandora.

The round-faced young man and Brother Pingtou followed closely behind.

Link just nodded to show that he understood.

If the relationship is not in place, there is no way for him to express support or comfort.

The "Yun Ni" once again entered the warp state.

This time, he entered the warp bubble very smoothly and returned to the rear camp at a speed exceeding the speed of light.

Come in a hurry, go in a hurry.

In less than 3 hours, a large amount of magic stones were burned, and the "Yunni" star battleship landed on the deserted planet where the rear camp was located.

During this period, after treatment, the four injured people, as well as Lanie, Tiffany, and Fried, woke up and recovered one after another.

A group of 12 people from the miniature army stepped off the star battleship intact.

"Each of you will rest and return tomorrow."

Shandora was so unmotivated that she didn't even finish the routine task summary and went back to her tent.

The remaining 11 people were stunned for a while and then went back.Walking into the tent assigned to him, Link sat cross-legged on the soft cushions, thinking back on this mission experience.

Anticlimactic?

It does count, after all, the ending is unclear and very hasty.

However, this mission was also an eye-opener for Link and was quite rewarding.

While he was deep in thought, footsteps came from outside the door curtain.

"Is it convenient to come in?"

Lanny asked outside the door curtain.

"Enter."

Link didn't refuse.

He is sitting here, instead of going inside to rest on the bed, he is just waiting for someone.

"What happened next? Why did the mission end so quickly?"

As soon as Lannie sat down, she spoke fluently and asked two questions one after another.

Link first described how the three of them were parasitized by parasites, as well as the process of several attacks and being attacked by the "Yun Ni", and then said: "I don't know the specific reasons for the end of the mission. I only know that and It’s related to Sorcerer Shandora.”

This is the truth, no deception.

Link really didn't know the details, he just had some guesses.

Guesses that are not supported by evidence will not be stated to avoid misleading others.

"is it?"

Lani was doubtful and did not ask further. Instead, she asked, "What are your plans in the future? Go back to the mainland, or stay and continue to follow the Sandora wizard?"

Link smiled and asked, "Is this something I can decide?"

"Of course!"

Lani nodded, very sure, "If Wizard Shandora really wants to recruit you, she will send you an invitation through the official channels of the academy. If you are satisfied with the benefits of the invitation and are willing to abide by the obligations of the invitation, then Sign the agreement. If you have other ideas, just don’t sign, it won’t make any difference.”

"You signed it?"

"Signed?"

"How does it feel?"

"It feels good. There are enough resources and time. I can be cultivated and gain knowledge."

"I have to think about it and won't agree rashly."

"You don't want to be restrained?"

"A bit."

At this point in the conversation, Lanny had already made clear Link's intentions.

In this way, she can go back to Shandora.

Lanny stood up and left a message before leaving: "In this case, maybe you won't receive the invitation."

"Ah."

Link watched Lanny turn around and said, "Thank Wizard Sandora for my kindness."

Lannie waved her hand, raised the curtain and left.

After going out, I happened to meet Tiffany.

The two nodded in greeting and passed each other.

"Am I bothering you?"

Tiffany asked as she touched the still warm soft cushion without sitting down.

"No."

Link shook his head and then asked, "Do you have a problem with me?"

"Ah."

Tiffany admitted frankly, and then said sincerely, "I want to thank you, thank you for your help in the mission, thank you for discovering the existence of the parasite in time, and thank you for your generosity."

"You're welcome, these are what I should do."

Link revealed his true thoughts.

Now that we are teammates, we must put aside our prejudices and cooperate seriously.

There is no need to make choices and delays in official matters just because of some grudges.

Tiffany smiled and said: "Most of the time, it is exactly what should be done that is the most difficult to do."

As she spoke, Tiffany's expression became serious, her tone was solemn, and she made a promise: "The Colonna family will not take any action to suppress or retaliate against you, and the same goes for Scotty Colonna."

This is reciprocating.

"Thank you."

Link responded calmly, not taking joy in it and not taking the promise seriously.

It's certainly a good thing to have one less family to target.

At least it can make the environment in which one grows up more favorable.

"Well, that's it."

After Tiffany finished talking about the business, she didn't plan to stay any longer, so she got up and left.

There was no friendship between her and Link. This time they were able to live in peace and even help each other because their interests came first.

Like Lanny, Tiffany left a message, or a reminder, before she left: "Be careful of Lucia."

When Link heard this, he immediately paid attention to it.

As both a pure-blooded family from the West Coast, the reputation of the Colonna family is much better than that of the Lionel family and the Lucia family.

One of the main reasons is that the Colonna family's position and style have always been very clear.

That is to take care of the development of yourself and your allies, but never easily suppress others and other strengths.

He will not deliberately target half-bloods, nor will he look down upon new bloods.

The line of Paro sages actually had a lot of contacts with the Colonna family.

As a Colonna, Tiffany issued such a reminder, it is impossible without a reason.

Clearly, there was something going on that Link didn't understand.

This matter must be taken seriously, and we must find a way to find out after we return.

Time flies by.

The next day, Shandora announced that the mini-legion was disbanded and everyone returned to their respective homes.

As expected, Link did not receive an invitation from Shandora.

Under the slightly strange gazes from behind him, Link walked steadily into the portal.

"Just let him go?"

One of the four wounded who had been lying naked in the nutrient solution in the transparent warehouse, a short-haired, petite and cute witch, asked Sandora.

"This is not his ambition. If you don't let him go, why force him to stay?"

Sandora replied in a faint tone.

"You can stay if you want. He is very capable and can help you."

The petite witch said casually, not taking it seriously.

"Forget it. I have to rethink some things. Before I think clearly, I won't do any more recruiting. At worst, I'll just recruit him next time. How dare he refuse?"

Shandora lost interest in chatting and went back to the tent.

Link walked out of the portal and returned to the wizarding world. Looking up at the bright sun, he felt an unreal feeling.

Peace and war, life and death.

Everything is so unreal.

Taking out the "Phantom Coupe", Link drove straight to the North District villa.

He missed the green tea he made.

When you return to the villa, you are greeted only by the smart butler.

Jasmine is still busy at Grand Pharmacy.

On the backyard lawn, Link held a cup of green tea and sipped it, enjoying the rare leisure.

"Back? How do you feel?"

After being reminded by housekeeper Hamid, Jasmine rushed back, hugged Link from behind, and asked softly.

Link thought carefully and said seriously:

"I'm so poor!"

　Thank you book friend for your reward, thank you!
