But no fighting talent means no fighting talent. Even though Elena has worked very hard, her control of magic power has not improved much.

Eileen still couldn't control the super-effective Witch Charm talent.

Even using some fairy magic treasures or magic props to cover up, it can only eliminate the influence of this charm ability on ordinary people.

Those glamorous nun secretaries whose bodies have already been completely privatized by He Dan still feel weak when they see Elena.

However, the last federal government died, fled, and those who surrendered couldn't be trusted. Those glamorous nuns are now the absolute main force of Eileen's subordinates.

If they can't work well, the entire new federal government may be paralyzed.

Temporarily avoiding Elena can certainly avoid this situation, but she is the president of the Federation, and she must often appear in the presidential palace to reassure the people, like He Dan, it is impossible.

In the end, Xue Ni found a way to solve this problem. She tailored a special projection device for Elena.

The projection generated by this device looks indistinguishable from the real body, and it can be used as a stand-in.

Not only that, this projection is also linked to Elena and an AI at the same time, which can be manipulated by Elena using magic power from a distance, or handed over to the AI ​​to enter automatic mode.

With this device, Elena was completely freed from the busy work of the president at once.

In fact, she doesn't like power and politics either. It's just the general trend that she will become the president.

Compared to sitting in the office as a stamping machine, Elena still prefers to read alone, or to be in love with He Dan.

So they seem to have returned to the days when they first came to the Federation, eating, drinking and having fun everywhere every day, living as happy as a honeymoon.

. . . . .

In the blink of an eye, another half a year flew by.

In the past six months, relying on the leadership of the Winchester family and the efforts of the new federal government, the new policy of compulsory nationalization of important industries has been basically implemented.

Although there are still many problems and hidden dangers, in general, the elites and ordinary people are quite satisfied.

Coupled with the non-stop material support from the Alliance and the Empire, the Federation finally regained its vitality after the catastrophe, getting better day by day.

During this period, He Dan went back to the Kingdom of Light to visit Lucy Phil several times, but found that she had hardly changed, as if she had become eternal in the seal of a powerful magic spell.

It's just that He Dan knows in his heart that this kind of eternity is very fragile. If there is no cure, Lucy Phil will probably lose his soul the moment he breaks away from the seal.

Just when He Dan was anxious about why the Cypher hadn't been found yet, Sha Duo finally sent back the news.

It's just that the news isn't very good.

"What? Found the suspected wreckage of the Cypher?"

He Dan's complexion suddenly became very ugly:

"You wait, I'll go there in person right away."

As the most powerful and mysterious ultimate weapon of the Federation, the Cypher rarely shows up.

Sha Duo has no way to determine the identity of the Cypher, and of course He Dan can't either.

Now that Vivienne has traveled around the world and still hasn't returned, He Dan can only find another person who is more familiar with the Cypher, that is, Lucy Phil's biological mother-Xue Ni.

When it came to her daughter's safety, Xue Ni certainly would not hesitate in the slightest, she immediately put down all the work in her hands and followed He Dan to join Sha Duo.

This is a small city on the coast of the South Atlantic Ocean. The products are not rich, and there are no famous scenic spots. The economic situation has not been very good.

But the poor economy also has the advantages of poor economy, that is, the prices in this small town are very cheap, and the pace of life is very leisurely, which is very suitable for retirement.

The place where Sha Duo found the suspected wreckage of the Cypher was on an uninhabited beach less than [-] kilometers away from the small town.

"...This is indeed the Cypher."

As the former leader of the federal chaebol, Cypher has no secrets from Xue Ni.

It took her less than half a minute to make a judgment:

"Even without a weapon system, the energy shield and repulsive force field of the Cypher are very powerful. Even a top expert can't break through without a multi-person siege.

And a battle involving many top experts will inevitably be huge, and it is impossible to end it quietly like this.

So they probably had internal strife, and the Cypher was destroyed from the inside... I still have to go in to see how it is. "

After Xue Ni finished speaking, she jumped into the ruins of the Cypher to search. He Dan, who was worried that she would be in danger, hurriedly pulled Sha Duo to follow.

But this search obviously can't be completed in a short time, and Xue Ni, who has entered the state of concentrating on work, hates being disturbed.

After taking the initiative to talk to her several times but being disgusted, He Dan could only take the initiative to distance herself with a wry smile, and asked Sha Duo how she found the Cypher.

"It's a report from a local resident."

Mentioning this, Sha Duo also showed a puzzled expression on his face:

"Evidently the local military radar and abnormal energy monitoring equipment did not find anything, but the police station received calls from many residents, saying that there was a huge fire and explosion in the direction of the coast.

At first, the police station even took it as a prank. Fortunately, one of my subordinates happened to be investigating nearby, and he notified me when he felt suspicious.

Instinctively, I would rather make a mistake than let it go, so I rushed here myself soon... But I didn't find anything at the beginning. "

Chapter 629 Discovery in the wreckage

"Didn't find anything?"

He Dan raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, then reached out and pointed around:

"It's obvious that such a large piece of wreckage...was it hidden in some way? But don't you holy knights have a special magic technique to see through the falsehood? Are you careless?"

"How is it possible! Paying attention to distinguishing illusions during the search is a compulsory course for us holy knights!"

Sha Duo retorted first, then gritted her teeth unwillingly:

"I really didn't care... I was targeted."

"against?"

He Dan narrowed his eyes:

"what do you mean……"

"it is this!"

Sha Duo puffed up her face angrily, and took out a few things to show He Dan while talking.

Those are a few small flags, the flagpoles are about half a meter high, the flags are triangular in shape, and different cyan inscriptions of immortal arts are painted on the flags.

"this thing……"

He Dan held the small flag in his hand and glanced at it:

"Could it be the one from the Millennium Blood War?"

"Yes, that's the thing."

Sha Duo nodded:

"The phantom formation flag developed by Daqin cultivators for our holy knights, the phantom formation under this phantom formation flag can easily hide from us."

"It really is this..."

He Dan pondered for a moment:

"But I remember that this kind of phantom flag requires a very rare material, and the output is very low. I am afraid that there are not many sets in the whole of Daqin. After the war, all of them were taken back by the imperial government... Who on earth would still Have this thing?"

"Then I don't know."

Sha Duo spread her hands and continued to tell her experience:

"After I came to the coast for the first time and found nothing, I did not leave in a hurry, but went to visit the local residents who called the police station one by one.

After using the special interrogation skills of the Divine Knights on those residents, I can conclude that none of them are lying.

Whether it was a collective hallucination or something else, they did at some point see an explosion and flames in the direction of the beach.

So I came here again, but I made some other preparations before I came... Relying on a few pieces of forbidden metal borrowed from RoboCop, I finally cracked this phantom formation. "

"So that's how it is..."

He Dan played with the Magic Array flag thoughtfully.

The Magic Formation Banner is not the kind of magic weapon that anyone can use. Without a certain level of immortality, it is completely useless even if you hold it in your hand.

Based on this alone, it can be concluded that the one who set up the phantom formation must be the immortal cultivator.

But not all immortal cultivators are Daqin people. As a country where [-]% of the population is descended from immigrants, there are not a few immortal cultivators with Daqin blood in the federation, and there are even immortal cultivating families like the Liu family.

Coupled with the fact that the opponent actually uses targeted props such as the Phantom Array Flag, it shows that the opponent knows very well that the Holy Knight is chasing the whereabouts of the Cypher, and they came prepared.

There were not a few immortal cultivators who defected from Daqin to the Federation, and this phantom flag was probably brought with them when they defected...

Well, that should be about it.

He Dan felt that his analysis should be correct, and nine out of ten this incident was done secretly by the local cultivators of the Federation.

It's just that their motives are hard to guess... Is it because they are eyeing the value of the Cypher and want to find out?Or is it simply an enmity with the chaebols on the Cypher?

However, when He Dan was thinking about how to investigate those federal cultivators after returning home, Xue Ni's discovery slapped her hard in the face.

"Come here! See what I found!"

When searching for a wreckage similar to a banquet hall, Xue Ni suddenly waved to He Dan and Sha Duo, signaling them to go and have a look.

He Dan's second daughter quickly leaned over, only to find Xue Ni squatting in front of a dead body.

It was a very strange corpse. It had completely lost moisture like a mummy, but the cloth fragments on its body looked brand new.

Apparently, it wasn't really a mummy, but became like this after death.

The cause of death of the corpse was also obvious. It was pierced through the heart by a wooden stick that looked like a branch. It should have died in great pain, because its expression was particularly ferocious.

"I know him."

Xue Ni stared at the corpse and sighed with a complex expression:

"He is the elder of the Lockheed family, a very powerful vampire prince, and the leader of the entire federation.

When I was young, he wanted to suck my blood because he was eyeing my talent... My parents paid a lot to keep me.

It is precisely because of this that I became very obsessed with developing weapons... I never thought that this guy would die like this in the end. "

"You said he was a vampire?"

He Dan frowned all of a sudden:

"But wouldn't a vampire turn into ashes directly after death? Even if he is a prince, it shouldn't be an exception, right?"

"Normally, that's true, but this old fellow is no ordinary vampire prince."

Xue Ni smiled and shook her head:

"Not only has his own strength reached the peak of the Vampire Prince, but he has also used a lot of black magic and biotechnology to transform himself.

It is said that he has overcome the weaknesses of most vampires since a long time ago, and even the existence of the sun and holy water can't hurt him at all.

That's why he died from this..."

As Xue Ni said, she pointed to the wooden stick that pierced the corpse:

"If I'm not mistaken, this thing should be a branch of Sanhuamu.

Sanhuamu is an ancient spiritual tree in our federal continent. It has a strong effect of destroying evil, and it almost seals the throat of ordinary vampires.

But it is precisely because of this that during the period when the vampires dominated the federal continent, the San Huamu was completely exterminated by them, and it has long since become extinct.

Naturally, there is no need to overcome the threat that has disappeared, and the old guy who wanted to come to Lockheed didn't take Sanhuamu into account when transforming his body. "

"In the end, did he die because of being pierced by Sheng Huamu?"

He Dan nodded, but was even more puzzled:

"That is to say, the attacker not only knew the weakness of the Great Elder Lockheed, but also made the already extinct San Huamu appear again? This is a bit powerful..."

"No, that person is even more powerful than this."

Unexpectedly, Xue Ni shook her head again with a complicated expression:

"The matter of this old thing is not a secret in our circle, as long as you are interested, you can still find out.

It is also not difficult to make the extinct Sacred Tree reappear...An archdruid who has seen the Sacred Tree or a similar plant-type ability user can do it.

The ones that really make me wonder... are these. "

"This is……?"
