"Senior, now you can tell me why you want to take action."
After leaving the cruise ship, Setsuna finally couldn't hold back and started asking. She stared at Ai Li uneasily with a bit of worry in her eyes - Setsuna still clearly remembered that her mission was to monitor the Fourth True Ancestor and eliminate her if she was found to have any dangerous behavior beyond the norm.
Ellie's act of directly killing the First True Ancestor's envoy tonight was already out of bounds.
In response to Setsuna's question, Ai Li raised her head, looked at the night in front of her, was silent for a moment, and then spoke.
"In this world, four countries have developed nuclear bombs, and in order to avoid accidents, they signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty."
"……?"
Although she didn't know what Ai Li wanted to say, Xue Cai still listened quietly.
"But all of a sudden, a fifth country develops a nuclear bomb, and unlike the other four, it has no treaty. In this situation, what do you think the other four countries will do?"
"I must be trying to get it to sign the treaty as well...ah."
"Yes, that's the truth."
Ai Li turned around and looked at Setsuna.
"If I'm guessing correctly, the man named Watla should be sent by the First True Ancestor to observe and monitor me. They don't know what kind of strength I, the Fourth True Ancestor, have, nor are they sure of my personality and course of action, so they sent someone here to see how I would treat him."
"If that's the case, then why did you do that, Senior?"
"That's why we do it."
Ai Li narrowed her eyes and stared at Xue Cai. The latter felt the coldness in Ai Li's eyes and instinctively held her breath.
"A weak country has no diplomacy, Setsuna. Remember, if you are weak, then everything you do is meaningless and worthless. Moreover, that man is almost riding on my nose. If I don't teach him a lesson, won't it make others think that I, the Fourth True Ancestor, am easy to bully? If you have great power but cannot control and use it, then in the end you are no different from trash. I am the Fourth True Ancestor, and Genshin Island is strictly speaking my territory. You saw the result..."
Ellie raised her hand and pointed at the cruise ship not far away.
"He sent us an invitation, but he still wants us to come in person? Setsuna, let me ask you, if an outsider comes to a country and wants to meet the king, will he send him an invitation to invite him to meet him? Why didn't he come to see me? Why did he want us to come to see him? The reason is very simple. We are looked down upon. Maybe the other party thinks that I am just a fourth true ancestor who has just awakened and knows nothing, so he wants to fool me. So you see, I gave him the answer he wanted."
"...I think I can understand what you mean, Senior..."
Facing Ai Li's answer, Xue Cai seemed a little hesitant. She could understand Ai Li's attitude, but she just couldn't accept it.
"But what if we take a wrong step and let the 'War King Domain' use this as an opportunity to declare war on Genkami Island?"
"The three True Ancestors are restraining each other, and no one dares to take the initiative. If the War King Domain dares to attack me, it must be prepared to be destroyed by me. Even if there is no way to destroy it, as long as the strength of the War King Domain can be weakened by half, it will be enough to cause the balance between the three parties to collapse. With the power I have shown so far, the War King Domain will not dare to really come to trouble me as long as it has a little bit of brains."
Ai Li's analysis hit the mark, leaving Xue Cai at a loss as to how to respond. Although she was a sword wizard of the Lion King Organization, she was only a 15-year-old girl after all. When faced with such political issues, it was not something she was good at.
"but……"
"Um?"
"nothing."
Facing Xue Cai's puzzled look, Ai Li shook her head.
It was too early to consider Genshin Island as her own sphere of influence, and it was not so easy. Now Ai Li had to start thinking about building her own sphere of influence. Fortunately, this was an artificial island, and although Ai Li could not use the various abilities from Fang Zheng, the knowledge and skills she had gained from various worlds were still there, so...
I wonder how much money the FBI in this world has available?
If that doesn't work, take it from the Federal Reserve.
Thinking of this, Ai Li made a decision happily.
"Oh my... I didn't expect it to be so tricky..."
Sitting on the observation tower at the top of the cruise ship, the blond man smiled bitterly as he looked at Airi and Setsuna who disappeared into the night. He reached out and pressed his waist. There was a fist-sized wound that was wriggling constantly, and golden lightning could be seen flashing from time to time.
"I thought it was just a kitten, but it turned out to be a lion?"
Wattela muttered and lowered his head, looking at the wound with a solemn expression. He could feel that the move that Ellie had just made was clearly aimed at his heart. If he hadn't atomized himself at the last moment to escape, he would probably have died by now.
As Ai Li expected, Wattela came here as an important official of the First True Ancestor, and his most important task was to observe the rumored Fourth True Ancestor, and testing her was of course one of the steps. But what Wattela didn't expect was that this girl who had just awakened to become the Fourth True Ancestor half a year ago was even stronger than himself in the use of her beast.
The two sides only fought for a moment just now, but Wattela had already discovered that the other party could completely control his own beast - although there was only one, it had reached a limit that most vampires could not reach.
Vampires and their beasts are two sides of the same coin. Vampires summon their beasts to fight, but their beasts also have their own will. Although a vampire as strong as Vatra can easily merge his beasts into a more powerful existence, he still needs to make his beasts visible in the end. After all, only the beasts themselves know how to fight, and only when the beasts are fully liberated can they fully exert their true power.
But Ellie didn't do that.
She did not free her beast, but completely turned it into her own property - this was no longer manipulation, but domination.
This is quite rare.
Familiar beasts are beings from another world, they come here only to respond to the call, and the more powerful the familiar beasts are, the stronger their self-awareness and the worse their tempers are. Of course, in most cases, they will also obey the orders of the vampires to fight, but obeying orders to fight and being dominated are two completely different things.
Not to mention that this girl was just a young girl with magical talent two years ago, and she awakened the fourth true ancestor's beast half a year ago - but in such a short time, she was able to control the power of the beast?
Why is this?
Wattela was puzzled. In order to make the beasts submit and be dominated, one must be more powerful than them. Although vampires can summon and control beasts, it is difficult to make them submit and be dominated. It is impossible that this girl is a monster stronger than the beasts in the other world.
In any case, this means things are getting more interesting.
Thinking of this, Watara narrowed his eyes and looked at the artificial island in front of him shrouded in night with a smile.
"Then let me pay homage to your power, Fourth True Ancestor."
After returning home, Ai Li asked the exhausted Setsuna to go and rest, while she returned to her room and opened the file bag in her hand - this was the information from Wattela that the girl named Kirasaka Sayaka had reluctantly given to her when they parted.
It seems that he is here for more than just causing trouble.
And in the file bag is a person's information.
"Christopher Galdesius?"
Looking at the information on the file, Ai Li frowned. According to the intelligence, he was a retired soldier from the War King Realm, a well-known terrorist in Europe, and a cadre of the "Black Death Emperor Faction"...
"Ah, no wonder this was forwarded to me."
Seeing this, Ellie suddenly realized that she also remembered that in the ruins incident two years ago, she had fought with the terrorists of the Black Death Emperor Faction, and the second-in-command of the Black Death Emperor Faction also died there. The information that Wattala provided her was that Galdshu and his subordinates had sneaked into the String God Island and tried to launch a terrorist attack here...
There really is a constant flow of bad karma between me and this nasty terrorist organization.
Forget it, let’s talk to Xiao Nayue and see if she is willing to help.
Thinking of this, Ai Li turned on her cell phone and dialed the number, but no one answered the call.
"Where has she gone now?"
Listening to the busy tone coming from the phone, Ai Li sighed helplessly. Although they were both magic attackers, she and Nangong Nayue were not the same. Ai Li knew very well that Nangong Nayue's main task was to guard the prison barrier of Xianshen Island. The prisoners were all dangerous elements from all over the world, and they were basically sentenced to life imprisonment. Nangong Nayue's real body had always been in the barrier, and the one that appeared in the outside world was just a clone she created with magic power.
In other words, for Nangong Nayue, "managing the prison" is her main job.
Well, come to think of it, Xiao Nayue also uses chains.
He is worthy of being the warden.
Never mind, it's just a small matter.
Since she couldn't find Na Yue, Ai Li shrugged her shoulders, turned off her phone, then opened the door and walked into the room.
"Welcome back, Master."
There, the blue-haired girl Astaruti, wearing a maid outfit, was standing respectfully at the entrance, speaking in her usual, machine-like tone. Ai Li walked forward with a smile and hugged the girl in front of her.
"I'm back, Astarutei, where's Nagisa?"
"Ms. Nagisa has gone to rest."
"Really... Well, I still have some work to do. Could you please make me a cup of coffee?"
"Understood, order accepted."
Although the tone did not change, one could hear that the emotions in the words were slightly elevated, and Ellie smiled and touched Astelliti's head, then returned to her room and turned on the computer.
"It's a little troublesome, but this is the only thing I have to do myself..."
That's right, the solution that Ai Li came up with was to build a space battleship of her own in the name of "building a new block". After all, air superiority is the strongest at any time. And because Fang Zheng has technological data from various worlds such as Halo, Mass Effect, and Star Wars, as long as he is given enough time, even building a star destroyer is not a problem at all.
Of course, Gundam is impossible, don't even think about it. Humanoid robots are such stupid things, Ai Li will never allow them to appear in this world.
"Then first of all, my company will propose a plan for the redevelopment of the artificial island and prepare funds... but it seems a little insufficient."
Looking at the design in front of her, Ellie pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"Anyway, let's get some from the FBI first."
