272. Chapter 272: Run After Stabbing

"Want to run?"

"Yun Ni," cockpit.

Sandra looked at the movements of the Flame and Metal Trading Company fleet, snorted coldly, and was about to order an increase in pursuit intensity.

"Abnormal movement of the side fleet! Abnormal movement of the side fleet!"

The Tower Spirit's reminder came abruptly.

Sandra turned her head to look.

The White Tower Alliance fleet no longer watched the show, posing a posture of obliquely inserting and side-attacking the "Yun Ni," and the intention to cover the retreat of the Flame and Metal Trading Company fleet was very obvious.

"Damn!"

Disregarding her image, she cursed, gave up the idea of pursuit, and said unwillingly, "Stop the pursuit, recall Lin Ke and Gerald."

"Understood."

The Tower Spirit immediately adjusted the heading and speed of the "Yun Ni," gradually disengaged from the battle, and at the same time issued a recall order to the water-drop warship.

"Just let it go like this?"

Feeling that he hadn't been of much use, Gerald asked unwillingly after receiving the recall order from the "Yun Ni."

"Can only let it go like this!"

Lin Ke gave an unpleasant realistic answer.

No matter how strong the "Yun Ni" is, it is fighting alone.

It is not strong enough to completely crush the opponent, so it can only stop here and let the opponent retreat.

After the two fleets of the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance were completely far away, Lin Ke and Gerald drove the water-drop warship back to the "Yun Ni."

And the "Yun Ni" had already adjusted its direction at this time, continuing to sail towards the task world.

Sandra had already reported to the Supreme Council, no matter what accident happened, this trip back to the 3rd-level Zerg World had to be accounted for.

Since the "Yun Ni" was not damaged and the micro-legion had no casualties, Sandra chose to continue to complete the task.

"Your performance just now was fierce."

In the small cabin, Lin Ke and Gerald walked out of the water-drop warship, and Sandra, who was waiting on the side, immediately gave praise.

"Average, only helped to take down a supply ship, didn't perform well."

This sentence was really not Lin Ke deliberately being humble or Versailles; it was indeed his true thoughts.

Hearing this, Sandra's mood suddenly became complicated.

2nd-level wizard, you are only a 2nd-level wizard, and you just promoted not long ago, and you did something that ordinary 3rd-level wizards can't do.

What else do you want to do?

Fight against a Sage?

If you say it like this, it will make me, a senior 2nd-level wizard, look like a piece of trash.

This complaint was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't spit it out even if she wanted to.

Sandra had to pretend she didn't hear this sentence from Lin Ke and forcibly changed the subject: "Let's go, go back to the cockpit for a meeting and make a post-war summary."

"Okay."

Lin Ke nodded in agreement.

The three of them walked out of the small cabin one after another and returned to the cockpit.

"Meeting, post-war summary."

Sandra immediately forgot the little unpleasantness just now, took out the style of a legion commander, and performed the duties of a legion commander.

The 11 members of the micro-legion, including Lin Ke, were very cooperative and did not treat this as child's play.

Just when the post-war summary was being conducted here, the two fleets of the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance also had infighting.

Wizard Wina looked at the expressionless face of "Scholar" Silvano on the screen, and her anger came up, scolding: "Is this how your White Tower Alliance acts as an ally?"

"Scholar" Silvano put the bulky book in his hand aside and stared straight at Wizard Wina's eyes through the camera.

Confirming that the other party was still immersed in the previous defeat and hadn't reacted yet, how weird it was that the two fleets didn't go to the agreed coordinates to gather with the main force this time, but suddenly turned to intercept and kill the "Yun Ni."

Sighing, shaking his head, "Scholar" Silvano said gloomily:

"Wina, if you don't want to become a brainless person, control your desires.

I know most of the meditation methods of your Flame and Metal Trading Company, although they have side effects and are easy to amplify various negative emotions, there are also ways to suppress or even eliminate them.

If you continue to let yourself go like this, you will really be hopeless."

"What do you mean?"

Seeing "Scholar" Silvano speak so seriously, Wizard Wina forcibly suppressed her anger and asked coldly.

"What do I mean?"

"Scholar" Silvano sneered and asked back, "Think carefully, why did you come to intercept and kill Sandra and her 'Yun Ni'?"

"Why? Of course it's..."

Wizard Wina opened her mouth, her tone was natural, but she stopped abruptly halfway through.

"Of course it's what?"

"Scholar" Silvano asked with a smile.

Wizard Wina's lips moved, her face flushed, and she couldn't speak.

She originally wanted to say, of course it was the company's arrangement.

However, thinking back carefully, the company had no such arrangement at all.

No matter how she was tricked, but now, still knowing nothing, confused, it was a bit shameful for a wizard!

A moment later, Wizard Wina pressed down her shame and anger and asked suspiciously: "Why did such a thing happen? Who did it?"

"Scholar" Silvano didn't answer, just stretched out his index finger and pointed upwards.

Wizard Wina understood immediately, and then fell into silence.

Then, violent emotions arose in her heart, and she really wanted to burn someone to vent her anger.

Thinking of "Scholar" Silvano's advice just now, she forcibly suppressed the thought and operated the heart-clearing witchcraft secretly passed down by the Flame and Metal Trading Company.

After a period of time, she got rid of the violent state, and her eyes returned to clarity.

Wizard Wina leaned back and said weakly: "Let it be, go wherever you want, I'm going back to the mainland."

"Heh heh..."

Seeing this, "Scholar" Silvano let out a string of inexplicable laughter and actively disconnected the communication.

Taking out a fountain pen from somewhere, Silvano wrote on the bulky book:

Wina, can already control ( ) through verbal induction of thought changes!

Putting away the fountain pen and closing the book, Silvano recalled Lin Ke's heroic posture of changing the battle situation with his own strength just now, and a thick desire arose in his heart.

"Really want to make you into a specimen!"

In the void, in an immeasurable place.

Dean Forrest and Lady Lisandra watched the whole battle, which was not long and not very intense.

Both of them had different thoughts, but neither revealed them.

"Let's go, go meet Mike Filuo and Maximilian Medros again."

Dean Forrest made a suggestion, and his figure disappeared immediately.

Lady Lisandra's gaze penetrated the void and the defensive shield and hull of the "Yun Ni," looked at Sandra, who was presiding over the post-war summary meeting in an orderly manner, and sighed: "Time really flies."

At the beginning, such a small group, now has become an adult.

Has her own opinions, has her own pursuits, and is also trying to take on her own responsibilities.

"Cognitive witchcraft is not omnipotent."

Third brother Forrest's previous warning echoed in her ears.

"Cognitive witchcraft is not omnipotent."

Lady Lisandra murmured, and made a decision in her heart.

Then she took a step out and came to Dean Forrest, who was blocking the two Sage-level legions.

The distance between Sixth-level Sage Maximilian Medros of the Flame and Metal Trading Company and Sage Mike Filuo of the White Tower Alliance was a little further than last time.

Dean Forrest caught a glimpse of his second sister out of the corner of his eye, nodded slightly, and then said to the two people opposite: "How about we call this game a draw?"

"How do you count a draw?" Mike Filuo didn't care about the face of the so-called ally this time, and asked before Maximilian Medros.

The bet they made when they signed the contract earlier did not include the result of a draw.

Forrest replied: "Our Riverside Academy takes a step back, sends the captured White Tower Alliance wizards back to you, and promises not to actively attack you anymore, how about that?"

"What conspiracy are you plotting again?"

Hearing this, Mike Filuo's first reaction was to ask back, and then sneered, "Did you already send back the captives of the Flame and Metal Trading Company, and promised some benefits?"

He was meticulous and quite quick-witted, and immediately guessed the truth of the matter.

Found the reason why the Flame and Metal Trading Company committed the act of betrayal in fact.

"Yes."

Without Forrest answering, Maximilian directly admitted and said, "I opposed it, but it was useless, and in the end, I could only act on orders."

"Heh!"

Mike Filuo sneered, "What does this have to do with me? This has nothing to do with me!"

"Harmony, harmony. You two don't quarrel, listen to me."

Forrest persuaded, and then said seriously, "I have some words I want to say to you two frankly, and I also ask you two to take my words back, discuss them, and see if my words make sense."

Pausing, under the gaze of Mike Filuo and Maximilian, Forrest spoke solemnly:

"As everyone knows, our Riverside Academy has always been the fastest-developing force among the major wizard forces in the Michelle District.

From the three or five people when it was founded, to now, it has jumped to the first major force under the Michelle Great Sage Tower in the Michelle District.

Even, after a while, it can challenge the status of the Michelle Great Sage Tower.

There must be a reason for being able to do these things."

Seeing that the interest of Mike Filuo and Maximilian was aroused, Forrest didn't sell it and said directly:

"The reason is very simple, our Riverside Academy never follows the jurisdiction of the Michelle Great Sage Tower!

We have always treated what they say as farting!

Think carefully, so many wizard organizations that follow the jurisdiction of the Michelle Great Sage Tower, including you, have you achieved any good development?

Except for allocating resources from the Supreme Council, how many benefits has the Michelle Great Sage Tower given?

Not to say none, that's too exaggerated; but very few, this is a fact."

These words directly silenced Mike Filuo and Maximilian.

Good guy, eliminating disputes and making the three parties no longer attack each other is no longer enough to satisfy Dean Forrest's ambition.

He actually wants to continue to unify the front, pulling the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the White Tower Alliance from favoring the Michelle Great Sage Tower to favoring the Riverside Academy.

What is this called?

This is called making friends as many as possible and making enemies as few as possible.

After confirming that Iris Clark is the special "Outsider" in the prophecy, and the Supreme Council promised to issue high-level resources as soon as possible to satisfy the promotion needs of Sosi Great Sage.

The secret cooperation between Riverside Academy and Mesopotada University: Riverside Academy makes a move to attract the attention of major wizard forces in the Michelle District, covering the promotion of the 8th-level Great Sage of Mesopotada, in exchange for a 7th-level Great Sage promotion resource and a 6th-level Sage promotion resource.

There is no need to continue.

However, since Rivuo Great Sage signaled to continue promoting cooperation, then continue to promote it.

Guiding according to the situation and acting according to the trend is the basic operation of a manager.

Dean Forrest adjusted the methods and goals accordingly.

From blindly causing trouble to causing trouble on the surface, while secretly dividing and winning over.

Until finally forming a loose alliance centered on Riverside Academy, opposing the Michelle Great Sage Tower.

So far, the progress is gratifying.

Mesopotada University goes without saying, a staunch ally;

Shadow City, a nest of cold-blooded snake people, has long been dissatisfied with the Michelle Great Sage Tower;

The Flame and Metal Trading Company seems to have been moved;

Only the White Tower Alliance has not yet tested its attitude.

Right now, this is Forrest's further test of the Flame and Metal Trading Company and the preliminary test of the White Tower Alliance.

Mike Filuo actually knows that Forrest is sophistry.

There are many reasons why Riverside Academy can continue to flourish, and it is definitely not as simple as not following the jurisdiction of the Michelle Great Sage Tower.

However, Mike has to admit that Forrest's words still make some sense.

The Michelle Great Sage Tower is indeed a bit too stingy.

Gritting his teeth, Mike said: "I am only a vice-chairman of the White Tower Alliance, I cannot express my position rashly, I can only relay your intentions to the Council."

The system and structure of the White Tower Alliance are very special.

Initially, it was a loose alliance organization formed by thirteen wizard organizations, one large, five medium, and seven small, holding together for warmth.

Subsequently, it continued to develop, and the connection between the wizard organizations became closer and closer, until finally inseparable, and simply merged into one.

The management of the White Tower Alliance has three levels, which are the top Ruling Council, the middle Council, and the bottom Executive Committee.

6th-level Sage Mike Filuo is exactly one of the three vice-chairmen of the Council.

Maximilian also expressed his position at this time: "I will tell the president."

Dean Forrest had a bright smile on his face: "Good, I look forward to your good news."

"Hmm."

Mike Filuo responded nonchalantly and turned to disappear.

Maximilian followed closely behind.

The things that should be said have been said, why not leave?

"Let's go back too."

Forrest greeted and disappeared.

Lady Lisandra turned her head to look at the direction of the "Yun Ni" and left this place.

"Yun Ni," cockpit.

The post-war summary meeting has been declared over.

The Tower Spirit formed a document of everyone's speeches and discussions in the micro-legion and sent it to everyone's smart brain.

After the meeting, the members of the micro-legion performed their duties and controlled the "Yun Ni" to continue sailing towards the task world.

Sitting in the operating position, Lin Ke paid attention to various parameters while recalling the previous two attacks.

First attack, "Slash of Heaven."

Although it was a self-created composite spell forcibly blended, there was a problem of incompatibility between witchcrafts from the beginning.

However, Lin Ke's expectations for it were very high.

Therefore, it became the first choice of witchcraft for attacking the supply ship earlier.

It's just that the attack result did not meet Lin Ke's expectations.

Second attack, magic-modified version of "Disintegration Technique," simple and pure.

Originally, Lin Ke's expectations for it were not high, even could be said to be very low.

As a result, the power exerted by the magic-modified version of the "Disintegration Technique" was actually much higher than the carefully designed "Slash of Heaven"!

Directly poked through the defensive shield of the flagship-class warship that had flaws.

There must be a reason for this difference.

In fact, Lin Ke had long discovered this reason: too many blended witchcrafts, incompatible, and even canceled each other out!

It's just that there was no chance to experiment with "Slash of Heaven" before, so it didn't attract attention.

Now that there was actual combat and comparison, Lin Ke thought about learning from it and making improvements and optimizations.

The magic-modified version of the "Disintegration Technique" still has room for improvement.

Lin Ke felt that it was completely possible to try to mobilize the "Sun," which was mainly transformed by the favor of the Wizard World Will in the celestial structure of the "Great Universe Meditation Method," to charge the colorful pentagram on the forehead and the ring on the chest of the battle armor.

Maybe it could have miraculous effects.

As for "Slash of Heaven," it needs to do subtraction, or redesign the framework.

Cannot forcibly blend too many witchcrafts into it anymore.

Less is more!
