Our family is in decline

Amanda rushed here immediately after hearing Tamara's arrival. Before coming in, she was a little worried that such an intrusion would offend Lance, but after seeing the lord's greeting, she couldn't help but feel joy in her heart, and her face He couldn't help but smile and walked over.

Amanda's sudden intrusion reflected a very important thing for Tamara. You must know that she could not see the lord before, but now she can come in directly without being disgusted. This is enough to show that they are The relationship between them has changed a lot since he left.

Tamara's face became more and more ugly, and she looked at Amanda with a straight face as she walked in, but Amanda was not afraid of this look at all. Not to mention the pressure, it made her raise her chest, raise her head, and move her arms. Her long legs could not be covered by her coat, and her face was full of pride.

"You must have heard about the pirates. Our ship is escorted, but there are no other merchant ships. No wonder there is something wrong with the cargo volume recently. Some people don't want to spend this winter safely."

Lance didn't pay attention to the overt and covert fight between the two of them, but really talked about business, and Amanda went along with it.

"Those pirates must have boarded the ship from Totnes. Who doesn't know that the goods the pirates robbed came from Totnes? It must have something to do with them.

Once Hamlet's ship is hijacked by pirates, and those people are captured as slaves or forced to become pirates, Hamlet's reputation will be ruined if the news spreads, and no one will dare to come. "

"It seems they have already taken action, but they are still so secretive." Lance smiled calmly and turned to Amanda, "Tell me who is behind Totnis."

Why did Amanda come at the right time? Because as a consultant, she had to help Lance answer some questions.

“Actually, according to what we know, Totnes was not as prosperous as it is now, nor was it as prosperous as Old Hamlet, but it was still a wealthy place.

The local lord is a special duke in the empire, one of the few great nobles in the empire. The special thing is that he is a duchess.

But Totnes also suffered an accident that year, but it did not lead to the destruction of the entire city, but was limited to problems at the top. "

As soon as the word "but" came out, Lance knew that things were getting complicated, and Amanda told what she knew without much hesitation.

Probably Totnes was not that bad back then. Although it was not as good as Hamlet, it was still a wealthy territory in the empire. The duchess's method of managing the territory was a very traditional aristocratic one.

Then something happened. No one knew exactly what happened. Anyway, by the time everyone came to their senses, there was a big change in the top management of Totnes, and the duchess became a different person.

"No one knows how this woman became the lord of Totnes. Anyway, some of the subordinates who were originally loyal to the duchess changed their families, and even those who disagreed disappeared.

Then the woman pushed some people to manage, while she hid behind. Unlike Hamlet's decline, Totnes rose rapidly after the woman took power, and it became what it is today. "

Lance was also a little surprised when he heard it. After estimating the time, he couldn't help but sigh, "What a trick. The emperor cooperated with outsiders and used Totnes to destroy Hamlet with one move. Now he directly solved the two major territories."

Just as he said that, the mocking look on his face became a little bit more, and he joked: "But that idiot may not have thought that without Hamlet, there would be Totnes. If his own strength is not good, no matter how many tricks he uses, it is just a joke. Just making wedding clothes for others."

The emperor probably thought very simply. Totnes was not his own anyway, so he gave it to him. As long as he could kill Hamlet, he could swallow the prosperity.

But who would have thought that the ancestor was also a ruthless person, directly sacrificing the entire city, turning Hamlet into a dead place, and cutting off the trade route.

Coupled with the pressure from the mountain barbarians heading south, the emperor was unable to obtain Hamlet's resources or trade routes, and was even forced to appoint a count to stabilize the border.

On the contrary, Totnes took over the benefits of Hamlet and developed rapidly. The emperor had no choice but to watch, and he was really a clown.

The conversation between the two did not avoid Tamara at all, but for some reason, she felt that Lance was talking about her. After all, she was the one who attracted Hamlet to Amanda.

Now that the dove is occupying the magpie's nest, she has become a consultant, and she is like a stranger.

It's me, obviously I came first, and so did the consultant...

"Is there really no such thing as that woman?" Lance was still quite curious. He had been to Totnes himself, and he was a talent to be able to create such a place.

"That person is not shown outside. I only know that she is a woman. No one has seen her take action, but she should be a transcendent and very strong."

"Does the church not care?" Lance asked casually, but the next second he realized it and couldn't help but joke, "Then it seems that the guy who captured Totnes is indeed very strong."

“No one knows that woman’s real name, but her title is [Scarlet Rose], and she is also an old monster who has lived for who knows how many years.

I had heard a few rumors circulating in Totnes that the city was recruiting virgins to be maids, but those who were selected were always those who went in and never came out. I'm afraid they weren't good people either. "

Finally, Tamara found an opportunity to insert the topic. When Amanda left, she was not even a master. Although she had access to a lot of information because she was a direct descendant, some of it was not something she could know. Sera might know it, but she would not reveal it.

Although Tamara returned to the organization later, her performance proved her talent, so she naturally received more resources. When she came, she also got more secrets from her teacher, mainly because they were afraid that she would mess around in Totnes and offend people she shouldn't offend.

Lance asked Tamara to watch him and Amanda interact here, which was originally a stress test. Now it seems that she has indeed been recognized by the organization, otherwise she would not know this news.

And the news revealed is also a bit interesting. It is unknown what the owner behind Totnes plans to occupy this place.

"Interesting~ Then play with her." Lance looked quite playful, and turned to signal Amanda, "Go and help me see how the interrogation of those pirates is going, and then order them to hang them on the dock for three days and then put them in the sanatorium, so that everyone knows the pirates' plan."

"Yes." Amanda knew that this was to get rid of her, but she left without much hesitation, because she had already won.

When she passed by Tamara before leaving, her smile was full of provocation. If Lance hadn't been here, I'm afraid the two of them would have picked up weapons and fought directly.

"You came to Hamlet because of your problems, right?"

Lance didn't pretend, and directly revealed the problem that Tamara was facing now. Although that breath was hidden well, it couldn't escape his perception. After all, the breath from the ancient gods made a deep impression on him.

Tamara, who had been suppressing her anger, didn't care about these things at all when she heard this. Her heart tightened and she turned back to meet Lance's calm eyes.

The two holy objects suppressed her, and even the teacher didn't notice it. He thought it was unstable just after the breakthrough, but he saw through it at a glance.

"Is it strange? I also saw your talent at that time, I understand you."

Lance really can't just leave it alone, because the last person who received [revelation] was the ancestor. She can't see anything now, but who knows if she will be further eroded and turned into the next "ancestor"?

For example, what about sacrificing the Roma people, twisting all those elders into bosses, similar to witches, necromancers, and pig gods.

The ancestor set up an ascension sect and believed in ascension, so she can also set up a star belief, set up a cult like the universe sect, and recruit some aliens to unlock the seal of the ancient gods and enter the universe.

No wonder the elders in the Roma organization simply banned Tamara from contacting these things after realizing that her talent was polluted, and even wanted to seal her talent. Now it seems that they made the right decision.

Even if Tamara stole the holy relics and escaped later, she had no resources and was being hunted down, and she couldn't do anything. If she hadn't intervened at the beginning, Tamara would have been killed by Amanda long ago. How could she go back and become the champion so quickly?

As expected, it is a long-standing supernatural organization, and there is still some reason for doing things.

But now that it has come to this, Lance can only speak.

"Tell me, what happened to you, maybe I can help you."

Tamara hesitated for a while, but could only complain.

At the beginning, she was suddenly sent to the observatory by the teacher, and then she lost contact. Later, when she broke out and heard that Hamlet was in trouble, she wanted to rush over, but halfway through, she heard that the vision disappeared again, so the teacher gave her a new task to investigate the business of the empire, but she was trapped in Totnes by Sera. She accidentally found out that Hamlet's ship was targeted by pirates, so she took action and returned here by the way.

"Even I know that Sera must also know that the pirates have targeted Hamlet, but she didn't say it, or waited until she was hurt before saying it, in order to show her ability. This is not what a friend should do."

"Hamlet and the Roma are just business dealings. There is no such thing as friends or not. I naturally remember the news Sera gave me. It's not surprising that she didn't tell me and waited for the news to increase the price. After all, you are selling intelligence."

Lance could feel that she was defending herself, and even didn't forget to provoke Sera, but these were not important. What he needed to know was where the power came from.

"We are talking about that power. How did you get infected?" Lance didn't forget to warn her, "Tell the truth honestly. This is related to you. If you think I can't help you, then go back."

"It should be related to the blood moon incident that Hamlet raised at the beginning." Tamara spoke the key point as soon as she opened her mouth, and Lance looked as if it was true when he heard it.

The blood moon is the projection of the power of the ancestor in reality. If we compare the divinity of the saints of the church with that of the ancestor, the ancestor is indeed more divine than a demigod to some extent, but he is stuck in a body that cannot accommodate so much divinity.

Then his power must be more affected by the void cracks in the observatory, which is already in the Observatory. The power has lost the constraints of reality and has been pushed into the championship, but it has also been contaminated by this power.

Lance asked for more details in detail, and Tamara also explained in detail, not daring to mess around with her own problems.

"I have a general understanding of the situation. I can help you give up that power, but are you willing to give up that power?"

As soon as these words came out, Tamara immediately understood what it meant. This meant that her strength had fallen. Only after mastering that kind of power could she understand what a champion was. However, the vague problem also made her feel uneasy and she immediately fell into a dilemma.

"It was you who warned me that extraordinary power was dangerous. You pointed at those who broke into Rat Street and tried to become extraordinary people and mocked them for being overconfident and daring to do anything, but few of them really succeeded.

With your talent, you can be promoted to champion even if you give up this power. It is only a matter of time to become a legend. Now you are greedy for this. Do you want to go further in the future?"

I understand!

Tamara finally understood something. Her character was also somewhat decisive. Otherwise, she would not have dared to steal the treasure and escape.

"Then come on."

But at this time, Lance smiled strangely and said, "But you also know the strangeness of extraordinary power. What if I am also contaminated? The risk is very high, so why should I help you?"

Just now he said that he would help, but now he suddenly said this. She thought carefully and realized that Lance did not agree directly just now, but used some empty words.

This made Tamara dumbfounded, and she subconsciously asked.

"Aren't we friends?"

"Friends never need to be spoken, but in the heart." Lance replied calmly, not disturbed by her words.

Lance would not talk nonsense if a true friend like Bigby got into trouble, but it's hard to say for you Tamara. Since you are good at calculating, I will settle this account with you and see how you react.

"What do you want?"

Tamara had a cold face, a little more disgust in her eyes, and her voice changed a little, as if she was suppressing the anger in her heart, and the relationship back then was burned out by this fire.

Lance just looked at her like this, silent for a few seconds but shook his head, and said with emotion:

"I knew that there was a sad thick barrier between us."

After that, Lance raised his hand and waved, and the strange power in Tamara's body was instantly removed. He killed the ancestor, how could that wisp of residual breath block his blessing?

Tamara was still angry and dissatisfied, but when she heard this and didn't understand it, the strange power in her body quickly dissipated.

"Friends don't do this, go away."

Lance waved his hand and didn't say anything more.

Before she could feel it carefully, she was brought back to reality by a sentence. She looked at Lance holding the book and stood there in a daze...
