She raised her head and looked at Merlin opposite.
"Do you want to obtain the Holy Grail? What is your wish?"
This is really curious. Merlin plays a pivotal role in the legend of King Arthur. Without his assistance, Arthur would not have been able to defeat Morgan and become the only king of Britain.
"Haha...my wish can come true without the Holy Grail."
Merlin smiled faintly. A breeze blew through the courtyard, bringing the fragrance of many flowers.
"Oh? I'd like to hear about it."
Raising her eyebrows, the old queen continued to ask.
"Well, it's not a secret that can't be seen."
After scratching his cheek, Merlin looked away slightly embarrassed.
"Actually, I just want to see what kind of ending human beings will eventually reach."
"Because I like humans the most. The human world always has various possibilities, and human dreams are bigger than reality, full of fantasy and surprise."
"Seeing such a dream, even I can't evaluate how interesting your future will be."
"The above - observing humans is my wish."
He even looked a little shy as he spoke. It seemed that it would be embarrassing to speak out his wishes.
"You are also a dangerous character..."
Hearing this wish, the old queen was a little ashamed.
Although Merlin didn't say it outright, she could feel it from every word. This guy should often spy on other people's dreams. The so-called court magician was just a piece of cake.
Thinking back to the legend of King Arthur, Merlin was cursed because he played with many women through dreams. In the end, he could only be imprisoned on a high tower in Utopia and was forced to observe the world through a small window. She had to Evaluate Merlin's danger more carefully.
"Well...why is everyone saying this? I think there must be a misunderstanding."
"No...many people have actually said that. There must be a reason."
Just as the two of them were chatting with each other, a waiter came in from outside the courtyard.
After getting the old queen's signal, he quickly walked forward and said a few words.
"It seems that you have something serious to do, so I won't bother you any more."
From this distance, Merlin could naturally clearly hear what the waiter said.
Before the old queen could speak, he turned around and left, then was blown away by a gust of wind and disappeared directly into the courtyard.
"Call him in..."
Frowning, the old queen glanced at the direction Merlin left, and then gave instructions to the waiter.
Soon, a man in a suit walked in quickly.
"Chairman Snow, why are you so anxious to see me?"
Hiding the teacup that Merlin had used in her arms, the old queen spoke calmly.
It was best not to let too many people know about her private communication with Merlin. Keeping it secret was a compulsory course in life.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Mordred is going to the Black Gate. Is this true?"
Snow first saluted and said hello, and after going through some useless routine etiquette, he immediately got to the point.
"Yes, this information was sent to me after you analyzed it."
The old queen nodded and said disapprovingly.
Originally, Snow had absolute power in the Land Retrieval Section, but after the remnants of heroic spirits and other anomalous things were made public, many upper-level leaders noticed the importance and potential of the Land Retrieval Section.
Under their pressure, the National Territory Search Section expanded into the National Territory Search Committee. Although Snow still held the leadership position of chairman, he felt that he was in danger of being left out.
"Then what do you mean...?"
Snow asked cautiously. He was very ambitious, but that was all.
Against those big shots with strong capital and intricate connections, he would easily be crushed to death without a significant bargaining chip.
"Since she wants to go, let her go. We can't stop her anyway, can we?"
The old queen said softly, looking past Snow into the distance.
"So...I am willing to go with her!"
But Snow's next words shocked her body. She saw that Snow had straightened his back and looked over with firm eyes.
"We can't let her go to the Black Gate alone. We don't know what's going on there, and no one knows what kind of situation she will encounter."
"In this case, even heroic spirits need collaborators."
"And I, please, go with Mordred."
In this kind of thing that everyone avoids, Snow unexpectedly stepped forward uncharacteristically.
This is not like a smart person. Everyone can see how dangerous the Black Gate is. So many people never came out after entering.
They could accept sending some pawns to explore the road, but no one would be so stupid as to let them take risks themselves.
"Are you serious? Maybe humans can't survive in the Black Gate, and there may be no bones left after you leave."
The old queen raised her eyebrows and finally took a good look at the person in front of her.
"Da Ying needs everyone to fulfill their duties."
Snow didn't say anything more, but bowed and asked for orders.
The old queen almost believed this high-sounding statement, but as soon as she thought about it again, Snow's behavior was not incomprehensible.
He originally occupied the important position of chief of the National Land Search Section, but in just a few days the National Land Search Section was split, and he could only be reduced to a mascot. It is normal for people to be dissatisfied with such a gap.
There is only one way to change the status quo, and that is to make real achievements and completely stabilize his position.
This is a big gamble. Snow wants to use his life to gain the right to speak in the future.
74. The Black Gate strategy battle begins!
The next day, Enfield District, Black Gate Observation Restricted Area.
After the Chimera gushing incident some time ago, this neighborhood was completely blocked and no one was allowed to enter or exit.
Facts have proved that this is a wise move. Every evening, monsters appear underground in Enfield.
Although not as powerful as the Chimera, it is still a huge threat to ordinary people.
After careful observation, the agents of the Land Retrieval Committee discovered the existence of the Black Gate. It was a two-dimensional object attached to the sewer wall. It could not be affected by any means, but as long as a living creature took the initiative to touch the strange door, it could not be affected by any means. With the black door, they will be sucked into it instantly.
As for what will happen after entering, no one knows yet.
"Be prepared, everyone check the status of the equipment again to confirm whether there is any abnormality!"
Snow stood in front of a group of soldiers and gave serious orders.
The soldiers were also unambiguous. They quickly checked the equipment and supplies they carried. These things are all things that will be used to save their lives.
"Tch, that's really troublesome. There's no need for you to follow me. I don't know if I can protect you once we get in."
Not far away, Mordred was holding a basket of steamed buns in one hand, chewing them in his mouth and talking.
"Don't worry, Lord Mordred, we won't drag you back."
Snow walked quickly to her and saluted strictly before speaking.
“Because I don’t know how long it will take to conquer the Black Gate, carrying supplies is also an item that must be considered.”
"We brought a lot of high-calorie food, so you can move with confidence, right?"
Snow was one of the first people to come into contact with Mordred, and he still had some ideas on how to appease this irritable knight.
"Well, it's not like I don't understand the importance of food and grass."
Having said this, Mordred could only nod his head to express his agreement for them to fight with him.
"But it's really dangerous inside. Have you and them thought about it carefully? They might die tragically for no reason."
In fact, Mordred didn't know much about the Black Gate. She also knew that the Holy Grail was hidden in it, and there must be many monsters in it.
But how to obtain the Holy Grail, and how many monsters there are and how powerful they are are all unknown.
If you rush in recklessly under such circumstances, even a heroic spirit may really capsize.
"The soldiers and I have already realized that the existence of the Black Gate is too great a threat to Dayang. We cannot allow such an abnormal thing that keeps birthing monsters to be in the hinterland of the foggy city."
"If another creature as powerful as Chimera escapes from it, and there happens to be no heroic spirits in the Mist City, the casualties will be unimaginable."
Snow turned his head and looked towards the center of the street.
The area has been excavated, and a transparent explosion-proof glass pavilion covers the body of the black door, surrounded by temporary fire positions.
At this moment, a group of heavily armed soldiers were already standing at the door, waiting for an order before rushing to the front line.
"Da Ying, everyone needs to fulfill their duties."
Snow muttered to himself, as if trying to convince someone.
"Haha, don't worry."
Patting Snow on the shoulder, Mordred passed him and walked to the front.
"For the sake of you bringing me breakfast, I will try my best to protect you."
This man seems less annoying than before.
When he first met Snow, Mordred felt that this guy had no skills, and he didn't know who he was showing off his complacent look.
But now, Snow has matured a lot in just a few days. He must have experienced a lot of beatings from society.
"Then, thank you, Lord Mordred."
Smiling and nodding, Snow clenched his fists.
If you want to control your own destiny in this stormy era, it is impossible without taking some risks.
The National Territory Retrieval Section he had bet to establish in advance would be easily taken away, so no one could take away the reputation and achievements he had sacrificed his life for, right?
Sure enough, the best place to make achievements has always been a dangerous battlefield.
