Arad's Sword

Chapter 638 The Ice Maiden
"The results of the fuel test are back?"

An icy and pleasant voice like a silver bell slowly rang out in the study room made of marble.

Looking down from the floor-to-ceiling windows of this exquisite study, one can see the lingering white clouds, the long winding river, and the vast and incomparably verdant land of the heaven.

And the place where this study room is located is surrounded by white clouds, filled with the fragrance of birds and flowers, like a fairyland on earth.

Here is the holy mountain of heaven, the highest place in the entire heaven.

It is also the commanding height of the entire Arad world.

And the owner of this silver bell-like voice is the "Witch of Mist" with black hair and snowy skin, Alice Otropos.

However, in the heavens, she now has a new title——

"The Maiden of Ice".

Today, she has not only reached the peak of level 79, but also has a pair of dreamy blue phantom wings behind her. From a distance, she looks like a fairy descending from the sky.

As the overall person in charge of the entire Mechanical God of War reconstruction plan, this beautiful woman who is already at the pinnacle of an alchemy master just took a thick stack of materials from her entourage.

This stack of information is exactly the report of the three judges on the fuel test results of the Silver Moon Association and the Tiangang Association.

"The old stubborn Mansfield seemed very angry. It seemed that he had encountered some problems during the test. However, when he was asked, he hesitated. It felt very strange."

On the side, Alice's personal attendant, the Archangel Freya, said while recalling.

"Oh?"

Alice frowned slightly, but she didn't say much, but first opened the information in her hand.

This material was written by Mansfield himself, supervised by two other judges, and finally completed with the cooperation of the three.

The reason why Alice did this was because the Celestials were so orderly compared to the "Falcon Group" she was in, and it could even be said that they were conservative to the point of eternity.

For the "Witch of Mist" who is used to creating and inventing, and today's "Saint of Ice", this is obviously an unacceptable thing.

And she herself is usually responsible for a large number of alchemy projects, so it is impossible to concentrate on taking care of every detail.

That's why Alice specially used such a "three-person co-writing" system. At the same time, the judges she selected each time basically had a bad relationship with each other.

In this way, the reports obtained are at least three different views—even if these three views are relatively conservative—after all, Alice can still get more information.

However, what Alice didn't know was that in the stack of documents in her hand, Mansfield, who had been offended by Midi, paid a high price and directly asked the other two judges to "completely Agree" with all of his views.

Therefore, this report can be regarded as Mansfield's speech.

And there is no doubt that under such circumstances, he would never give Midi any good comments. Mansfield, including the Silver Moon Guild, was described by Mansfield as a group of unscrupulous and vexatious characters.

Of course, considering the fact that Meddy and Alice met, Mansfield's description is not direct, but full of indirect and malicious hints.

The highest judge believed that even if Midi and Alice really had a relationship, this information would definitely discredit Midi completely and make him a very serious "Ice Maiden". , the image plummeted.

"If you want to blame, blame why you exposed your biggest hole card when you came up, Midi! It's just a mere feathered man who dares to say the name of the ice maiden, he deserves death!"

Imagining Alice's anger when she opened the file and saw Midi's name and what she did, Mansfield couldn't help showing a poisonous smile.

However, contrary to what Mansfield had expected, his well-written report, which was like a criminal indictment, was not carefully read by Alice at all.

When she turned to the first page and saw the name "Midi", Alice was stunned.

The next moment, the always expressionless Ice Maiden showed an excited and surprised expression, and then frantically flicked through the report.

The carefully tested data, the conclusions drawn from repeated comparisons, and even the description of the fuel characteristics of the Silver Moon Association and the Tiangang Association, etc., these things that would have been of great importance in the manufacturing process of the Mechanical God of War, now, Ai Liz chose to ignore all of them.

She only looks at one thing.

It is the content related to "Midi".

Of course, Alice hastily ignored Mansfield's various malicious splashes of dirty water.

Because of this "Saint of Ice", the black-haired young man with a sunny smile on his face is already full of thoughts at this moment.

"Midi Athlex, is it really you, you really came to the heaven, and then came to the holy mountain..."

Alice muttered to herself, with a bright light in her eyes.

Any angel who is lucky enough to see the expression of the ice maiden at this moment will undoubtedly be extremely shocked.

When did that "Holy Maiden of Ice", who was as cold as ice for thousands of years and never smiled, be able to smile so overwhelmingly?

And who is it that makes her show such a beautiful and unforgettable smile?
However, after looking through this information repeatedly for half a day, Alice was still not satisfied.

After all, to a large extent, this report can be regarded as black material used by Mansfield to slander Midi, so the words in it are mostly exaggerated and deliberately misinterpreted.

This makes it impossible for Alice to judge whether this "Midi" is the Midi Asrex she has been thinking about day and night.

Although the breath of "fetters of fate" in her chest has indeed increased a lot recently, after all, Alice will not take her own speculation as fact on this kind of matter.

She needs more details.

However, even if it is the "Saint of Ice", with Alice's current identity and status, she cannot directly summon Midi to the holy mountain.

Doing so would probably put Midi himself in an extremely disadvantageous position.

"Freya, go and call Mansfield to the laboratory, I have something to ask him."

After pondering for a while, Alice finally made a decision.

"Yes, my lord."

The archangel bowed slightly, and immediately nodded in response.

However, this careful female angel still felt a little strange in her heart, because she always felt that today's ice maiden seemed to be a little different from usual.

The emotion that was originally frozen so that no one could notice it, at this moment, became extremely obvious like a surging tide.

This is how it happened?
Freya thought strangely in her heart.

And at the moment when he was summoned by the "Ice Maiden", Mansfield naturally felt a burst of ecstasy.

Of course, he still doesn't think that his level can win Alice's favor. However, since Alice's call came down as soon as the report was handed in, it can at least show that his report played a very strong role. stimulating effect.

If it wasn't for this reason, how could the Ice Maiden, who has always been calm, want to ask Mansfield for his opinion in such a short period of time?

He suppressed his excitement, and hurriedly made a draft in his heart before rushing to the laboratory.

"My lord, you have come!"

As soon as he entered the laboratory, Mansfield was taken aback again.

In the past, the Ice Maiden was always late, and the summoned people had to wait at least 10 minutes.

But this time, Alice arrived early, and judging from the amount of black tea she drank, she didn't just arrive earlier, at least she had waited for a while.

It seems that this ice maiden really takes the fuel test report very seriously.

As the highest judge, at this moment, Mansfield is naturally full of energy, ready to answer any questions at any time.

However, following Alice's question, Mansfield was taken aback on the spot.

"Report the situation of the previous fuel test from beginning to end. Don't miss any details, because after that, I will find two other people to verify."

Alice said lightly in a voice so cold that it pierced her heart and lungs.

The whole test situation?

Mansfield was puzzled.

However, in front of the "Saint of Ice", he naturally didn't dare to question anything, and quickly explained the entire test process.

Of course, during this process, Mansfield was naturally extremely careful and cautious. Every description could be matched with the content of the report, so that there would be no conflict between the report and the narrative.

In other words, he poured dirty water on Meddy again.

But unfortunately, this bucket of dirty water is the same as the bucket in the previous report, and it can be said that it has no effect at all.

Because in fact, the only thing Alice cares about is whether the "Midi" of the Silver Moon Guild is the real Midi.

Of course, it is impossible for her to ask this kind of question directly, otherwise if someone with a heart finds out that she cares about Midi, it may be counterproductive.

Therefore, the only way for Alice is to ask Mansfield to repeat the whole process directly.

And after listening to the entire lengthy narrative, Alice finally came to a very definite conclusion——

Midi Asrex, here it really is.

"It's really you."

Thinking in her heart like this, "Saint of Ice" Alice involuntarily showed a smile.

This smile is so bright and touching that the cold laboratory suddenly glows with light at this moment, like a fairyland.

On the other hand, Freya and Mansfield were completely stunned.

Freya is better, at least, she already feels that Alice is in a good mood today, and even smiled.

As for Mansfield, he was overwhelmed on the spot and was so surprised that he couldn't even speak.

After a long time, Alice's voice like a silver bell finally pulled him back from his trance.

"Give them ten days."

Alice said so.

"Ten days?"

Mansfield repeated it in a murmur, and for a moment his mind still couldn't get it right.

"Let the Silver Moon Guild and the Tiangang Association get ready. After ten days, I will bring out the finished fuel. I will test it myself on the holy mountain."

Alice returned to her usual expression of repelling people thousands of miles away, except for those smart eyes that still shone with light.
