Do not confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 759: Lanqi's Review after Half a Year

A person who thinks all day long thinks nothing but thinking, so he begins to be detached from reality and lives in a world that only he can see.

He was wearing a neatly ironed purple suit, his smooth brown hair shone under the light, his emerald green eyes were like two bottomless lakes, naturally filled with compassion and thoughtfulness, able to see the entire universe in silence.

There he stood.

"It has been more than half a year since we last met at the Protoss Royal School of Magic."

Lanci, who looks like Rocky McCarthy, stands in a room on the second floor of the Brillda Opera House with a nostalgic look on his face.

After accepting the northern investigation commission from Miss Duchess Chloris in Helrom, Lanqi and Sigrid went to the northern border province of Protoss.

After experiencing a series of dangers, when they came back, Sido had disappeared, and Chloris was imprisoned for treason. It could be said that this was their most dangerous moment.

Even though he later buried Asksan in the Capitol with the help of three great demons, he was unable to find an opportunity to defeat Duke Morotian.

Fortunately, Associate Professor Xiduo left the military with key evidence, which finally forced Duke Morotian to reveal his true colors and helped them achieve a great victory.

"Why are you here? And aren't you the Son of Tyrant? So even your identity as Rocky McCarthy is fake?"

Toliado held the back of his head with both hands, staring at Rocky in confusion.
"I must be dreaming! My goddess of fate!"

Even if he suddenly saw those old antique friends who had been lost many years ago, he would not be as surprised as he is now.

Rocky McCarthy shouldn't be here!

The guy in front of me must be Rocky McCarthy.

One look at Rocky and he confirmed it was genuine.

"Why are you two chatting again?"

Abigail was a little confused by Toliado's reaction.
“Who is McCarthy?”

She looked at Toliado in shock, as if he had seen a ghost.

"I'll take you to the Protoss Empire on the southern coast of the Northern Continent. If you stop anyone on the street and ask who Rocky McCarthy is, he will immediately tell you who the next president is most popular among the people."

Toliado turned to look at her and replied.

"Ok?"

Abigail was confused and stared at Lanqi.

She was a little bit unbelievable.

You are such a big shot who is doing well in the Northern Continent, why did you come to the Southern Continent’s Krelian Empire to stir up trouble?
"You know I'm from the Tyrant branch?"

Lanci asked Toliado with narrowed eyes.

He believed that Sido's kindness to him at the Protoss Royal School of Magic was genuine. Even his little apprentice, Zestira, liked Associate Professor Sido very much. After all, it was commendable that Sido did not discriminate against the demons under the traditional concepts of the Protoss Empire.

It was for this reason that Lanci became interested in the associate professor of history at the Protoss Royal Academy of Magic and attended his class, which led to their meeting.

"Of course. I also know how much Sigrid is willing to make an exception and accept a Holy Son. It shows how much she favors you. You are simply a treasure to her. The Cardinal can clearly sense the Resurrectionists below the Bishop. Even if I was disguised as Associate Professor Xiduo at that time, I could sense the Resurrection Certificate on you, and the level might be very high."

Toliado admitted generously.

As a cardinal, Toliado quickly felt that Rocky had a certificate of resurrection during his contact with Rocky. Later, after seeing Rocky's contact with the Tyrant Branch at school and his past in the Southwest Province, Toliado confirmed Rocky's true identity -

He has an affair with the Catholic Church.

"Then I saw you and Sigrid lurking in the Silent Branch and I thought things were getting interesting, so I helped you to form an alliance with Miss Duchess Chloris and help you further your connections and power in the Empire. This might give you hope of fighting against the alliance between Asksan and Duke Morodian."

Toliado spread his hands and sighed.

But Rocky McCarthy's intensity was beyond his imagination.

Originally, Toliado thought that the turmoil in the Protoss Empire would continue for a very long time, and the Silent Branch would engage in a brutal competition with the Tyrant Branch.

Even if Loki and Sigrid's Tyrant branch wins, it will probably be a pyrrhic victory.

And he, Toliado, also didn't have the energy to go back to the Northern Continent to help them in the short term.

Unexpectedly, the Tyrant Branch ended the situation within a day.

From the northern continent came the good news that the cold winter of the Protoss Empire was gone and spring had arrived.

"So that's how it is. That's all thanks to you..."

Lanqi held his chin in thought and answered.

There were things he hadn't understood in the Protoss, but now he understood them all.

"Why did you come to the Southern Continent? Isn't the Northern Continent and Sigrid more attractive? I thought you were all married."

Toliado was also thinking that he had made a great connection in the Northern Continent, and that he could later pretend to be Associate Professor Xido and travel freely to the southern coast of the Northern Continent.

He never dreamed that Rocky McCarthy would come south.

And disguised himself as his apprentice Landry.

"It's a long story. I'm originally from the Southern Continent, and like you, I used a disguise to go to the Northern Continent."

Lan Qi shook his head.

"Ah? You're from the Southern Continent?"

Toliado really didn't see many normal people who chose to land in Lilom City when they went to the Northern Continent.

"Then why did you set out from that remote town of Lilom in the Southwestern Province? You act like a local, not a normal tourist from the south."

If there was any mistake, he would be arrested by the Protoss Empire, which was on the verge of war.

"Did you know there was a tsunami?"

After hearing what Toliado said, Lanci asked back.

If the Dimension Bishop had not provoked the Destruction Bishop and a fight had not broken out in the waters of the southern continent, triggering a magic storm, he would not have encountered the shipwreck, and would not have been displaced with Hyperion, embarking on a bumpy journey.

"I'm sorry, sorry. There was a crazy woman chasing me across half of the southern continent, and I couldn't do anything about it."

Toliado rubbed the back of his head and laughed.

"..."

Abigail watched in silence as Toliado chattered nonstop with the man pretending to be Landry.

Toliado looks casual and cheerful, but he is actually cold to most people from the bottom of his heart. There are not many people he can consider as friends and get along with.

Rocky McCarthy himself is from the South Continent?
Then how did he achieve such world-renowned achievements in the Northern Continent?

Abigail was puzzled.

But she was roughly sure that the other party was not an enemy. Even if he was disguised as Landry, he was still a partner that Toliado valued very much. She had nothing to say.

"Xiduo, let me tell you, we could have won that encounter on the northern border. If you were here, we would have been almost there."

Lanci caught Toliado and started to review the situation.

At that time, he really didn't think that there was a hidden fighting force around them.

"At that time, I was severely injured by Ivanos and fled to the Northern Continent to recover from my injuries. I wasn't even sure I could win against a seventh-level opponent."

Toliado understood what Lanci was thinking - if he, Toliado, was there, maybe they could defeat the dormant Asksan and Morotian on the northern border.

But the reality was that he was no match for Morodian as his injuries had not yet healed.

He could only hide from Morodian and play hide-and-seek with him.

"You are so badly injured?"

Lan Qi said in surprise.

Another Bishop-level 8th order damaged in battle.

Lanqi understood it all too well.

Sigrid was only at level 4 or 5 when she was beaten to the point of death at the northern border of Protoss.

"Yes, that woman has no sense of pain. Her self-harming fighting style of risking one's life for another is unbearable for anyone."

Toliado initially thought that it would be okay to provoke her.

It was too late when he realized the seriousness of the problem.

It was the first time in his life that he encountered such a terrifying explosive person.

"Luckily you're pretty good at running away."

Lanqi was thankful.

If Toliado had run slower, he would have ended up like Beelzebub in Parië.

"And think about why Morodian didn't target you for so long when you went to the northern border. It's because I attracted all his attention. He was determined to catch me, and I had a hard time escaping from the Protoss Empire." Toliado walked over and put his elbow on Lanqi's shoulder and added.

"So that's it..."

Lan Qi muttered to himself.

Looking back on the eve of the final battle of Protoss, the situation was still unclear at that time, and it was impossible to determine who was the enemy or the friend, and even Xiduo was suspicious.

"I told you why Duke Morodian came to visit me in the principal's office that rainy night and asked me about you."

Lanci looked at Toliado and said.

Judging from the results, he was right to believe Xi Duo.

However, it was not until today, several months later, that he understood from Xiduo the hidden cause and effect of the entire incident.

"Hahaha, he still remembers me?"

Toliado gloated and laughed with satisfaction.

"..."

Lanci didn't understand why Toliado was laughing the most about this.

"Alas, the northern and southern continents are all enemies. Life is really difficult."

Toliado felt that the world was not worth it and shook his head and sighed.

"Why don't you think about why you have so many enemies?!"

Abigail ran over, pulled a book from the bookshelf, and slapped Sido on the head.

Thinking about the time when she was alone in the Cretan Empire, living in fear and worrying every day about being visited by the Destroyer Bishop Ivanos, she wanted to skin Toliado alive.

"But Morodian is really bad, okay? If I want to seek refuge with the goddess of fate, getting rid of Morodian will definitely be a great deed."

Xiduo spoke to Abigail honestly and sincerely.

As he spoke, he began to laugh.

"You don't think it would be fun to make a conspirator like Morodian so arrogant and mad?"

Lanci felt that Toliado had no respect for the goddess at all.

She didn't look like she wanted merit at all like Hyperion did.

I just felt Toliado's pure joy.

"No, I really want to surrender to the Church of the Goddess of Destiny one day. Long live the Goddess of Destiny! Have you heard about my donation to Ikerita College? When I surrender to the Church of the Goddess of Destiny one day, everyone will think it is reasonable. They will find out that I was bribing the high priest Loren in the first place."

Toliado said to Lanci seriously.

"..."

Lanci didn't know what to say. He couldn't tell whether Toliado was a traitor or not.

"Let's not talk about whether Lorentzon agrees with your surrender. Isn't the Pope of your Resurrection Church going to deal with you?"

Sigrid had previously planned to usurp the throne of the Pope and had conspired with him in private. This Tollado directly shouted slogans, fearing that the Pope would kill him.

"We must surrender! Only surrender is the Cardinal's only way out! The goddess of fate will welcome me to heaven!"

Toliado confidently clenched his fist and said with a hint of smile,

"No matter how powerful the Pope is, what does it matter? Whether he can come out alive from the Ninth Order Doomsday Shadow World is another matter. Even if he can come out, it will be at least many years later. By that time, it will probably be the second season. The entire North and South Continents will have changed, and new Ninth Orders will be born. I won't be afraid of the Pope if I find a Ninth Order backer."

He was eager to try it just by talking about it.

Abigail's scalp was tingling and her teeth were chattering.

While Toliado was getting in trouble outside, she was trembling at home.

If she could reach the eighth level one day, the first bishop she would want to kill would be Toliado.

While they were chatting.

The air in the mansion suddenly became stagnant, and the scene near the sofa gradually became unstable.

"Oh? Why is there another person here?"

Toliado felt the fluctuation of space and discovered that there was a living being separated in another independent space in this room.

But probably he couldn't trap the other party.

The entire mansion was under Abigail's control, and it was because the other party took the initiative to fall into Abigail's trap that she was trapped for so long.

"Thanks to both of them for helping me with the performance. I really can't rely on you tonight, you useless piece of shit."

Abigail scolded Toliado.

"Oh? And it's a girl? She acted opposite you?"

Toliado suddenly became interested and asked Lanci.

"Yes, so what?"

Lanci replied suspiciously.

"What kind of fairy woman could make you abandon Sigrid and travel with her to the Krewe Empire?"

Toliado inquired curiously.

"Pfft? She's just an older, single, unemployed grey-haired girl with a bad temper and a gluttony. Besides being good at taking care of children, her cooking has become more and more delicious recently. It's hard to find any good points for her."

Lanqi couldn't help laughing.

He discovered that the communication of thoughts had been blocked by space, so he took this opportunity to speak boldly.

"Impossible, I don't believe it. She must be a fairy sister. It's rare for a girl to be able to act opposite you, McCarthy."

Toliado waved his hand.

"It's true that her performance as the Gray Girl was quite effective in the show. When I first saw them, I didn't expect them to be so funny."

Abigail said something.

As her own director, she was almost deceived by the Governor's elegance and the Gray Girl's coolness at the beginning.

"That's impossible. Gray Girl's character is not a funny girl. How could she act like this in my play? You two must be playing a prank."

Toliado was puzzled.

Although he hadn't seen what the opera was like tonight, he was very sure that the woman who could compete with the domineering Catholic Sigrid was definitely not a funny woman.

The heavy ancient books on the bookshelf moved without wind, the pages rustled, and even the scent of sandalwood in the air became strong and pungent at this moment, an almost invisible warning.

The dazzling blue-white light cut through the space like a sharp blade, tearing a hideous crack in the air.

The edge of the distorted space flashed with electric light and made crackling sounds. From this bizarre portal, Talia rushed out like an arrow from a bow. Her golden eyes were burning with raging fire, mixed with anger and worry.

Talia's movements were as fast as lightning. She landed lightly, and before her toes had even touched the ground, she had already flashed to Ranchi's side, protecting Ranchi firmly behind her like a lioness protecting her cubs.

Talia's gaze was as sharp as a knife, piercing straight at Abigail and Toliado, and the hostility in her eyes almost turned into a tangible sharp blade.

"Lanqi, are you okay?"

Talia asked quietly, her mind full of concern, but her eyes remained fixed on Abigail without blinking.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire banquet hall was tense and invisible sparks were heard in the air.

Talia, who was about to take action, shifted her gaze to the mysterious man who appeared next to Abigail. The terrifying general-level magic power made her tremble all over.

Facing such an opponent, there was no way she could protect Ranchi.

"Wait, we won't attack you."

Abigail raised her hand to signal Talia not to panic.

If an eighth-level strongman unilaterally attacks them in this place, it will be very bad. In the worst case, it may even destroy the barrier and attract the god of war.

She felt something was wrong when she noticed Toliado moving beside her.

however.

Before she could stop Toliado, Toliado raised his finger and pointed at her the moment he saw the girl with gray hair and golden eyes.

"Fuck, Talia!"

Toliado yelled.
