Chapter 657: Lanqi Examiner Sets Off

The living room of Lanqi dormitory.

On this rainy afternoon, the world seems to be covered by a layer of light blue gauze.

The sound of rain outside was like a gentle lullaby, tapping on the windows and dripping from the eaves, the white noise clear and peaceful.

Talia was leaning back on the sofa, all the troubles of the world had nothing to do with her.

Her eyes fell on the newspaper in her hand, and she was concentrating on reading today's stories and news from the Hutton Times.

Suddenly, the sound of a door opening was heard in the corridor, and then Lanqi came out carrying a suitcase.

Talia glanced briefly at Lanci.

Her figure was particularly elegant under the light, with her long, smooth grey hair draped over her shoulders, giving her a sense of homely calmness.

"I'm ready, we can leave later."

Lanqi put the box at the entrance and sat down on the other side of the sofa.

"I'm ready for this."

Talia said in a flat voice.

Her luggage was minimal and had been packed before coming to Lanqi's house.

Although Lanqi said that she could use the workshop where the Great Love Poet originally lived, she thought that she would only stay at Lanqi's house for a few days, and most of the time she could just turn back into a magic card to reduce power consumption, so there was no need to clear out a room specifically for her.

After all, she wouldn't really stay at Lanqi's house.

"Any news?"

Lanqi asked, looking at the cover of the newspaper.

"It seems that the Dimension Bishop and the Destruction Bishop are fighting again."

Talia read what she was looking at.

Hearing this, Lanqi sat next to her with a little concern and read the contents of the newspaper.

"Toliado finally won a fight?"

Lanci said in surprise.

Although the newspaper did not clearly state the outcome, the Kingdom Federation's alarm had already begun searching for the Bishop of Destruction.

The first time was because the Dimension Bishop offered a reward for the Son of Destruction, which angered the Bishop of Destruction and he hunted him down, and he was beaten half to death.

The second time was when the Dimension Bishop fled, until he was chased to the sea by the Destruction Bishop, and was forced to fight again.

Later, the Dimension Bishop disappeared in the southern continent for more than half a year, and only reappeared after recovering from his injuries.

This should be the third time that the Dimension Bishop and the Destruction Bishop have fought in recent years.

"According to the expert analysis in the newspaper, it seems that this time the elite members of the Destruction Branch all disappeared, and the Bishop of Destruction lost his intelligence network. At the critical moment, he was plotted against by other bishops, and then surrounded by the Kingdom of Alolan and the Church of the Goddess of Destiny. Finally, he was intercepted by the Bishop of Dimension in a seriously injured state."

Talia flipped through the newspaper and read.

She had no favorable opinion of either bishop.

If they had not fought with all their might at sea and caused a magic storm, Lanci and Hyperion would not have been shipwrecked.

Cat Boss: “…”

"This guy, Bishop Dimension, really has no moral principles."

Lanci commented.

Although Dimension Bishop Toliado is a man of his word and gives money as he says, this guy is indeed a weird bishop who doesn't fight head-on.

"You're not much better than him, meow."

Boss Cat complained.

And why did Bishop Ivanos of Destruction become isolated and helpless? This all starts with Lanqi.

If this woman knew what Lanqi had done one day, the cat boss couldn't imagine how furious she would be.

"But how could the Bishop of Destruction be so terrifying? He was ambushed, surrounded, and then intercepted by the Bishop of Dimension, yet he still managed to survive."

Talia felt that if it were her, she would not be able to escape even if she was given several lives.

But she could probably understand how powerful the bishop level was.

If she met the Cardinal, she would run away without saying a word.

Last time, she found herself fighting with the alchemical beast of the rotten bishop Farmer, and her scalp was tingling. If the bishop's real body came, she would really not be able to escape if she hesitated for a moment.

"Before I went to the Northern Continent, Dean Loren emphasized to me that as long as I appeared in the Cardinal's field of vision, the Cardinal would be able to completely control me in just a moment. Only an Eighth Order could defeat an Eighth Order, and to fight against the Cardinal, you would need multiple Eighth Orders. I didn't quite understand it at the time, but I really understood it later."

Lanqi said with relief.

"You know nothing, meow!"

Boss Cat thought that Loren meant to warn Lanci to stay away from the Cardinal, rather than teach him how to defeat the Cardinal.

"Laosang is really strong. If you ask him to align his cassettes and fight in full state, who can withstand his final state-locking sealing technique?"

Lanqi and Boss Cat started arguing with each other.

Excluding strange bishops like the Dimension Bishop, a normal bishop is conservatively estimated to have a combat power of more than three towers.

If possible, Lanqi really doesn't want to play against the bishop again.

"Um?"

Talia frowned. Although she didn't know who "Laosang" was, she had never heard of the unit "Tower".

But she could vaguely understand Lanqi's meaning.

Murderous intent began to rise in the humid air of the summer rainy season.

Lanqi suddenly seemed to realize something, stopped talking abruptly, picked up the cat boss, and sat up quietly.

Talia shook out the newspaper and continued reading.

The living room was quiet for a long time, with only the clear sound of raindrops outside the window.

"By the way, Tata, my platinum-level identity is not public. Apart from a few insiders like Dean Loren and Professor Bolaio, only the branch president of the Card Creators Association and a few great nobles in the Senate of the Kingdom of Person know about it."

Lanqi seemed to remember something and said to Talia beside him, "So this time our itinerary is arranged a little differently from other platinum examiners. Although we are still staying in a high-standard hotel, it is not booked for us in the official name of the Southern Continent Card Creators Association."

Ever since Ranchi obtained the platinum level status, it has been kept secret, and even Kallen of the Alolan Kingdom has never discovered it.

Taking into account the recent uncertain situation in the southern continent and Person's concern for Lanqi's safety, it was decided not to reveal Lanqi's identity during this exam.

Let him wear a mask and supervise the exam as a "mysterious platinum-level card maker".

Unless necessary, the Person Kingdom will not disclose his personal information.

Only after Lanqi is safely sent back to the Kingdom of Hutton will the information of the new platinum-level card maker be announced according to normal procedures.

"So strictly speaking, you are indeed traveling, meow?"

The cat boss asked.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"On the surface, that's the case. That's why Professor Bolaio wants us to keep a low profile on this trip, so as to avoid being dragged into the chaos that may be brewing in the Person Kingdom."

Lanci admitted.

"I see. I have always been very low-key. It is someone who tends to cause trouble."

Upon hearing this, Talia sneered.

Lanqi was about to refute, but saw that the cat boss was looking straight at him.

Just as it leaves no doubt as to who the “someone” Tata is referring to is.

In the end, Lanqi swallowed his words back.

"A little worried about Hyperion."

Talia put down the newspaper and muttered to herself while looking at the rain and fog outside the window.

Especially as the weather is getting cooler.

Sometimes when she woke up in the middle of the night in winter, she would find that Hyperion had lifted the quilt or crawled out of it, and she would have to cover Hyperion with the quilt again.

"It's okay. Shinora is with Hyperion every day now. Hyperion and a teacher named Artemis have also come to Ikerite."

Ever since Hyperion and Sinora went to the Duke's Mansion last time, they seem to be obsessed with cracking the secret room of the Duke's Mansion. It is said that there is a treasure house of the Duke that even Hyperion has never seen what is hidden inside. Their goal is to open it.

Lanqi is now a little worried about Duke Migaia.

If there is no treasure inside, the Duke might be paralyzed when he returns.

“Artis…”

Talia muttered to herself.

She hadn't heard the name for a long time.

Earlier, Hyperion came back from the Northern Continent. She said that she was taken care of by many ice and snow witches. It turned out that Artmis had also come to the Kingdom of Hutton.

"Yes, Hyperion thinks it would be nice if Artemis were her mother, so Hyperion can be well taken care of when you are not around."

Lanqi said on the side.

“…”

Talia suddenly became sad.

It was the first time that Lanqi saw Talia like this.

"But Hyperion thinks that you are still her favorite. Even Kaliela can't compare to you."

He added.

"Really?"

Talia looked up at him.

"certainly."

Lanqi's helpless smile seemed to be saying, I can't fool you.

"I'll trust you for once."

The two chatted for a long time just to kill time.

"Let's go, and get to the station a little early."

Until Lanqi looked at the clock on the wall and stood up.

Although the tacit understanding between him and Talia was still a mess, and it seemed that it would be a long way to go to turn [Kaliera's Shadow Weaving Record] into a magic card, all he needed to know now was -

Their new journey to Bosen has begun.
