On the Seven Towers

The door of the interrogation room opened again, and Luo Ling walked out of it wearing smart work clothes. When Ji Yijun saw the smile on her face, he always felt that she looked like a cunning little fox. When Rowling walked past him, she patted his shoulder gently and said, "Learn more from now on."

Ji Yijun watched her pass by in shock, not knowing what she was referring to, but then he saw Rhodes walking out of the interrogation room, and he understood 70% to 80% of the time.

It was completely different from when he was being interrogated. This man's face lacked the indifferent and proud attitude, but instead contained a sense of relief. When he saw Ji Yijun staring at his face, he laughed lowly and said, "This is why I avoid magicians. They are always shrewd and aggressive, but they make it difficult for you to object."

"What? What did she ask you to do?" Ji Yijun asked.

"Heh." Rhodes stretched out a hand. Ji Yijun was stunned for a moment and held it with some doubts. Rhodes shook it so hard that he coughed several times: "From now on, we will be colleagues. I will work for Master Luo Ling, oh, no, this place. Those temple bugs who secretly stir up trouble, I will I'll help you dig them out one by one. After that, maybe..." He did not continue, but smiled slightly.

"Are you going to join us? I remember you had no intention of staying here a day ago. You still want to take advantage of us." Ji Yijun withdrew his hand and said.

"Ahem, Master Luo Ling is a very persuasive person." Rhodes spread his hands, turned around and walked out slowly.

Ji Yijun chased after him and asked, "Did she promise you benefits?"

Rhodes covered the bandage on his body with his hands, walked forward slowly, and said: "If a truth can be considered a good thing, then so be it. I hope she is right."

"What exactly did she say?" Ji Yijun asked.

Rhodes shook his head and said nothing, but asked: "Do you people really have no natural respect for God?"

"God? It's weird to believe in such an illusory thing." Ji Yijun answered naturally.

"It's not about faith, but... it's just like the followers of the God of War don't believe in the God of Harvest, but they will still maintain basic respect for him."

Ji Yijun stopped and looked at Rhodes with a scrutinizing gaze: "I don't like anyone riding on my head, let alone respecting me. No matter God, or someone who borrows the name of God, no one can be better than myself. noble."

"However, even if there is no god, there will be a king. Even if there is no king, I think Miss Luo is still up there taking care of you."

"As long as I am willing, I can replace her one day! But God or something is placed on an invisible seat high up, and no one can reach there. Naturally, I am unhappy."

Rhodes thought for a while with a calm expression and said: "In the past, I would have used my sword to argue with you. But now... maybe these words are what I should listen to."

After that, he waved to Ji Yijun and walked slowly out the door.

"What's wrong with this man? He's so nagging." Ji Yijun said to himself as he looked at the other person's leaving figure.

————————————————————————

Count Arias was sitting on a wooden chair. He was still wearing the formal attire he had worn at the banquet, but now he had lost all the grace he had at that time. He was hunched over, with his elbows on his knees, his hands clasped on his chin, like An old stone statue stared at Selinda lying on the bed without saying a word.

Pinto stood beside the count with a serious expression, wondering what he was thinking. And next to Selinda's bed, Master Banderas, holding a shimmering crystal in his hand, moved back and forth above Selinda.

Li Jia stood at the head of the bed, looking anxiously back and forth between the count and Selinda. Xiao Chen leaned against the wall and quietly observed the count's expression.

As for the rest, each holding a weapon, they were facing off against the count's guards on the outside.

With a bang, the crystal in Master Banderas's hand flashed suddenly, and then shattered into a piece of white powder. The powder scattered around Selinda, and some even floated on her face. Banderas waved his hand, and a breeze blew by, sweeping away the scattered dust. He raised his head and looked at the count, then shook his head and said: "Dear Pani, this matter is beyond my ability. I can't judge Selinda's current state. However, one thing is certain, her current state is not No, it won’t last long.”

"Can you guys from the Tower of Healers or the Tower of God Refining be able to do anything?" the count asked, his voice hoarse.

"No matter whether they have a way or not, they are far away in the capital. Even if we set out now, I doubt Selinda can hold on until then. Maybe..." Master Banderas glanced at Xiao Chen, "We should listen Please give this young man’s opinion.”

The earl straightened up, looked up at Xiao Chen, and asked: "Your Excellency Xiao Chen, are you really unable to give me a guarantee?"

"There is no guarantee. I have said that I have never dealt with such a thing. This is just a best-effort remedy. As for the result, it may only be left to luck."

The earl pursed his lips and spoke out his decision for a long time: "Then do it."

Xiao Chen looked at Selinda, then at the other end of the room, where the maid Nina was lying unattended on the bed, and said, "Then Li Jia will try to repair Selinda's consciousness, and I will try to repair Nina." The world of meditation.”

"What!" The Earl suddenly stood up and said with anger in his tone, "Your Excellency! You have more powerful power but you use it on that maid?"

"This is the plan provided by the Book Spirit of the Holy Scriptures. He thinks this configuration is the most appropriate."

"Is this revenge?"

"Your Excellency, from the time it happened to now, everything I have done is to better save people. Selinda made a mistake, but the mistake is to be corrected, not to take revenge. "You can trust my sincerity in this matter, otherwise, I can choose to do nothing." Xiao Chen said word by word, although his voice was not loud, but every word clearly expressed his attitude. After all, Selinda is a magician and has some understanding of spiritual power. Li Jia is also very close to her, which is very helpful for awakening consciousness, but Nina is not, so her situation requires strong spiritual creation ability. To you, you care about your daughter more than anyone else, but to me, they are both patients that I want to save, and I have to choose the best option.”

"Your Excellency, please believe in my ability. Apart from you, I am the person here who cares most about Selinda's safety. I will not make fun of her life." Li Jia also said.

The count glanced at the two of them and whispered a few words to Pinto. Pinto ran out the door, and soon he brought back a middle-aged knight. The knight was a little thin, and his face was full of panic. He hurried in. He first saluted the count, and then stared at Fucked Nina who was lying on the bed.

"What do you say, Holmes?" the count asked in a gentle tone.

The middle-aged knight named Holmes knelt down on one knee in front of the count and said in a panic: "My lord, Nina failed to stop Miss Selinda from reading that book. She...she is guilty."

He did not get up, but turned his head to Xiao Chen and said: "Mr. Magician, please try your best to save Miss Selinda first, and then if Nina can survive, please save her again. This is my request as Nina's father. "

Xiao Chen looked at the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground and said nothing, but his friends behind him broke out into soft discussions. Ye Zi came to Xiao Chen and said, "Senior, you can't listen to these people. This is simply a farce. What do you think?" She looked at the others.

Roger said with some embarrassment: "This man is a loyal knight. He has not broken his promise to defend the lord's family."

"Although I don't like this choice, it seems that the earl's daughter is more important?" Shi Hao said softly with an uncertain tone, "Besides, this is also their family matter. The doctor has to look at the opinions of the family when performing surgery, right? ”

"Why are you like this!" Ye Zi looked at Li Jia, but Li Jia averted his eyes and remained silent.

"Senior, you!" Ye Zi was about to have a fit, but was pulled back by Siro.

"What?" Ye Zi glared at Silla, thinking that this guy also wanted to speak for Selinda.

But she heard the middle-aged businessman whisper to her in a loud mosquito voice: "Don't worry. Mr. Xiao Chen will not be easily influenced by others."

Xiao Chen indeed turned a deaf ear to these comments. He reached out to pull Holmes. The middle-aged knight wanted to resist, but he didn't expect Xiao Chen to be very strong and dragged him up.

Xiao Chen let go of his hand. He wanted to kneel down, but he heard Xiao Chen say: "I don't like people kneeling down to beg me, especially when love and loyalty are used as bargaining chips. Stand still and listen to me!"

Xiao Chen's tone was not serious, but it sounded like thunder in Holmes's ears. Holmes took a step back, tripped over the foot of the bed, and sat down on Nina's bed.

"Look behind you. Think about what you want." Xiao Chen said.

"What are you doing? Are you using magic to teach my knight?" asked the count.

"I didn't use any magic. Each of us must face the torture of our own inner will. If we fail, that is the source of vulnerability." Xiao Chen said looking at Holmes, who only looked at Xiao Chen. In less than a second, I lost the courage to raise my head.

Xiao Chen no longer paid attention to him, but walked up to the count and asked: "Your Excellency, please tell me, what is the basis for the cooperation we discussed before? Is it coercion and pressure? Or is it trust and equality? "

"Is it related to this matter?"

"Not only is it relevant, but it is the most important step now."

The two looked at each other, and the room was silent, making everyone feel that the time had become very long.

"You people seem to be living in another world." The Earl turned his head and his eyes fell on Selinda again, "I don't know why you are always as unruly as a walking donkey in some branches. But... okay. Our cooperation is of course equal."

"Then I think we must ensure that we have enough say in our respective fields. Only by performing our own duties can we show our strengths."

"Hmph, can each perform his or her own duties to show his/her strengths?" The Earl sighed, raised his hand and nodded at Xiao Chen: "Please always remember what Selinda means to me!"

"I know it very well." Xiao Chen patted the book in his hand and said, "So we shouldn't waste time here."
