Blue Sword

Camp outside town.

"So, my sister has gone into the mutation?" Ludwig sighed.

"My guard knights took her to the inner camp, and then she disappeared." The Duke of Carinthia said, "Including the guarding knights, patrolling guards, and everyone else, no one was seen."

"Okay." Ludwig was a little frustrated. Of course he understood the subtext of the Duke of Carinthia.

Your sister is probably already a person with extraordinary abilities.

This is actually not a big deal. Many noble children will try to take some magic potions - but that is only after they get married and have children and are able to keep their secrets.

It is foolish to become a super before marriage, because you don't know whether the person you marry and his family are reliable. Not only is there the risk of the Holy See identifying extraordinary people as heretics, there is also the problem of the extraordinary person’s own reduced fertility.

For nobles, an heir who can inherit their title and family property is very important, and extermination is a major flaw that is almost unacceptable. If Eleanor became a superhuman...

Then her subsequent marriage partner will give her father a huge headache.

Ludwig looked at the town in the distance and breathed out a worried breath.

Inside the town.

Eleanor stabbed out the dragon spear again, lifted the manticore-like monster into the air, and smashed it down. Then she shot through the clouds three times, and finally sent the iron-cutting strike flying out.

She has become quite proficient in the Canglong Liantu, but the leader is not here, so naturally he cannot teach her the subsequent ultimate move.

The members of the Free Wind Mercenary Group had left half an hour ago. To be precise, it was Matthews who took the initiative to lead people to the other side, and after fighting the monsters there, he never came back.

This is obviously something quite wrong.

Taking into account the previous mutation and distortion of space, the purpose of forcing the two mercenary groups together was to induce the two teams to kill each other.

So, is it because the mutation has achieved its purpose that this space distortion has been lifted?

For example, the previous large-scale zombie attack was used to quietly replace some members of the two mercenary groups at the most chaotic time on the battlefield.

These impostors lying in ambush will deal a fatal blow to the unsuspecting team at the critical moment.

When Sheila told her guess, the girls all broke out in a cold sweat. Even Cang Qing Sword's side has been replaced by three people, and there are two more impostors. There is no reason for Free Wind's side to be able to escape intact.

Maybe that "Matthews" is already an impostor.

But no matter what, since the two sides have separated from each other, the girls of Cang Qing Sword naturally have no reason to worry about each other. Now, they can only choose to find a nearby building to guard, and wait for the mysteriously separated Aske and others to come back to find them.

After killing the last monster, Eleanor put away her spear and returned to the church building behind her.

This is the church located in the central square of the town. In the preaching hall, the girls were sitting on the carpet, comforting the distraught Paige - she had asked to go out to find Aske countless times, but thanks to Sheila and Mia, she held her tight.

"Secret code?" Sheila asked, standing on the porch.

Eleanor took out the paper ball from her pocket and checked it with Sheila. There was no problem.

"It's over!" Paige's scream sounded again, "Medea and Nora must have escaped! Maybe they have kissed!"

What else can girls say? They could only comfort Peggy who was trapped in delusion and could not extricate herself against her will, and said one after another:

"No, no, Nora is a shy and introverted girl, she won't run away."

"What about Medea? She's not introverted at all!" Peggy exclaimed.

"Oh, how could Medea escape with Nora watching?" Mia comforted her carelessly.

"Yeah, yeah." Sheila nodded and said in agreement, "If one of them is alone with Aske, there might be a possibility of sneaking away. But if two people are present at the same time, they will definitely restrain each other and prevent the other from succeeding..."

"Anyway, Peggy, just stay with us with peace of mind and don't always think about going out, okay? Otherwise, when Aske and the others come back, we will have to look for you then."

"Why wasn't I transferred together?" Paige burst into tears - she was really crying, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

The girls looked away unnaturally. First it was Nora, then Paige, and then Medea. Leader, couldn't you confirm the relationship earlier? You've been causing us all this stupid trouble all day long!

"The leader is a scumbag." Mi'er, who was sitting in the corner, put her chin in her hands and said suddenly.

"You can't blame Aske." Mia waved her hand and said in a tone as if she had experienced it, "Isn't this the nature of men? It's rare to meet multiple people you like, and you will always fantasize about having a harem, right? ?Of course I won’t rush to accept anyone’s confession.”

The girls all felt ashamed. Mia was such a brat, who had instilled in her all these messy harem concepts?

"It must be Medea." Eleanor sighed at the edge of the hall.

"Otherwise, who else?" Silla rolled her eyes.

"This guy..." Eleanor smiled bitterly, "I've never known exactly what she had in mind."

"I always feel like she's planning something bad..."

"Medea is a transcendent with a conspiracy sequence." Sheila said, "The influence of the magic potion of the conspiracy sequence would have prompted the transcendent to change in a dark and calculating direction."

"However, she deliberately asked Mia to mention 'harem' just to prevent the 'harem' from happening - she was reminding us."

"Remind us?" Eleanor frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Do you like the leader?" Silla asked casually.

"Ah? Hey, how is it possible..." Eleanor was a little embarrassed, "I mean, I know Nora likes him."

"Don't you understand this?" Sheila leaned against the wall and crossed her arms and said, "Human, once you are in the gray area between black and white, you may change in any direction at any time. The so-called ambiguous state is knowing but not knowing. To put it bluntly, it’s a similar logic.”

"Therefore, as long as you have not fallen in love with the leader and are in the ambiguous zone of 'like' and 'dislike', I will remind you to confirm your status, so that you will most likely choose 'dislike'. Confirm yourself With such thoughts in mind, it will be difficult to jump to the 'like' side later."

"Is it so complicated?" Eleanor thought, "This is what is called the unpredictable nature of the human heart."

"Ha, after all, it seems you haven't answered my question yet." Sheila stared at her with big bright eyes, "Do you like the leader?"

"To be precise, I don't know." Eleanor was silent for a while and said, "I...have never thought about this issue."

"So, if you like the leader, how will you face Nora?" Sheila continued to ask.

"I should quit." Eleanor did not hesitate this time, "I will not fight with Nora, let alone destroy our friendship because of this."

"It means you don't like the leader." Sheila nodded and said, "True love must be selfish, and it cannot be easily given up because of friendship..."

"... Just like family affection is to power." She laughed at herself in her heart.

"What about you?" Eleanor laughed, "What do you think of the leader?"

"I admire him a lot." Sheila said frankly, "He is strong, gentle and kind to me. I feel safe being around him."

"Is admiration...a kind of ambiguous state?" Eleanor asked with a frown.

"That's right." Sheila said lightly, "At least I can't say now that I don't like the leader. However, who can say clearly what will happen in the future?"

I’ll add another update tomorrow, don’t ask why.
