Chapter 733 Lanqi's Shadow World Plan
Four days later, Saturday.
"Today marks your eighth day in the capital city of Blildah, meow."
"After a busy and fulfilling day at work, you have your first day off."
Lanqi was sitting in the restaurant on the first floor of the mansion, already reading the newspaper, no longer trying to stop the Wing Chun Cat boss from broadcasting.
"Starting from Wednesday, your research in the Empire has been receiving more and more attention. Many military experts visit you every day, and there are more and more people monitoring you near your mansion. Even on the way home from Elliot Building, there are Imperial military cars following you."
"On Thursday, you contacted the intelligence personnel of the Person Kingdom through the Crane Central Daily News. After two days, you received a reply from Nigel this morning. He will help Tata prepare an identity for a woman in the Northwest Border Niksasen Territory. Don't worry."
"At the same time, because the news was passed to Nigel in advance, the Person intelligence personnel also began to release loopholes about the identity of the 62-year-old publisher Lovia under his instructions. The Imperial Operations Department soon obtained evidence that Lovia was a spy."
"You have made another contribution, which has won praise from Duke Dax and even made it to the newspaper. Although Nicholas the Red Falcon still doubts you, he has obviously restrained himself a lot and sent you a silk banner as promised."
When Boss Cat said this, he felt a little uncomfortable and looked at the wall.
[Loyalty and bravery come first, protect the country with iron and blood]
"Lanqi, meow, do you know what the students' expressions were when they saw Red Kestrel Nicola presenting you with a banner?"
Boss Cat turned and pulled Lanqi's newspaper apart, asking him to look at him.
"I'm not coming."
Lanqi put down some newspapers and answered while looking at the little black cat on the table.
He has become familiar with the school these days and often lets Cat Boss out.
Many people are convinced that Professor Landry has such a fifth-level elf cat contract beast.
"Being presented with this banner by the spy chief Nicholas Red Falcon can be regarded as an official recognition. Now the school is spreading the idea that patriotism should be emulated by Professor Landry. They say that you are daring, brave, and talented, and are a role model for our generation."
Said the cat boss.
Talia, who was making breakfast in the open kitchen on the other side of the restaurant, looked at Lanqi and the cat boss speechlessly.
Professor Landry has now become an authoritative expert in magical fission in the Kremer Empire. He is coming into contact with more and more important figures in the Empire. Next week, he will need to attend many meetings and talks in the Empire's academic circles.
She couldn't help but feel fortunate that Lanqi was now wearing Landry's skin, otherwise if he used his original skin, and the newspaper was seen by Hugh Bao, he would probably not be able to bear it.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
The ordered ingredients must have arrived.
"Lanqi, go get it."
Talia looked at the pot and shouted to Lanky.
"oh oh."
Lanqi stood up, put down the newspaper, opened the door of the mansion, asked the janitor to put several large boxes of food in the entrance hall, and closed the door after saying thank you.
Now his home is already filled with barriers set up by Talia herself to isolate sounds and prevent detection, so there is no problem with safety at all.
"Why did you buy so much?"
After a while, Talia also came to the entrance. She put her hands on her hips, looked at the boxes of food on the ground, and asked Lanqi.
"You kept saying that the food at St. Clement's Abbey is great, so I just bought some more. I think we should be able to finish it."
Lanqi answered honestly.
“…”
Talia thought about it and agreed.
When you return to Ikerit, you won’t be able to eat the specialty ingredients of Saint Cremona’s Monastery.
She took some of the ingredients to the kitchen counter, put on her apron again, and continued to make breakfast.
After a while, delicious dishes were served on the table.
"Tata, your cooking skills are getting better and better. Do you have any secrets?"
Boss Cat sat at the dining table and sniffed the delicious food in front of him in amazement.
"I have no idea."
Talia shook her head and sat across from Lanqi, "You can eat now. I'll read the newspaper later."
She instructed Lanqi.
Lanqi is a typical workaholic. Sometimes when he is immersed in work, he forgets to eat and sleep. With no one around to take care of him, even his meal times become irregular.
For example, every time Boss Cat finishes cooking, he will only call Lanqi once and then wait obediently by the side. He often waits until the food is cold before he starts eating, which is actually bad for the stomach.
"Oh, okay."
Lanqi obediently put the newspaper aside, picked up the fork and reached out to the equally over-sumptuous meal of the day.
"I don't think there's much work to do today?"
"It's a rare free day. They don't seem to want to bother me on Saturday, but next week it may not be the same. If it gets busy, we may not even have the weekend."
"Then let's go to the river near the monastery to bask in the sun this afternoon."
"Why?"
"Humans are not machines. Only machines don't need to rest. Humans need to rest. Even if you are busy, you still need to pay attention to rest."
The two people and the cat enjoyed breakfast in the restaurant on this floor, occasionally chatting about their future life in St. Clement's Monastery. Before they knew it, the plates were empty.
These days they have also been following the talks of the mysterious organization through [Ultra-Long-Distance Communication Program-7].
You can probably get to know some secrets of the empire, and even get to know the information about the related vampires.
"How long do you plan to keep diving?"
Talia also watched a lot with Ranchi.
The main source of intelligence is No. 3, and No. 3 either exchanges it for other intelligence or owes it first. Among them is intelligence related to the vampires. It seems that for this organization, the vampires hiding in the Kremer Empire are not a secret, and some of them are also investigating the vampires.
She increasingly felt that Lanqi made the right decision to join this organization.
"If you really need my help, I'll see if I can help."
Lanci replied, concentrating on eating.
…
After dinner, Talia cleaned up the kitchen and returned to the dining room, only to find Lanqi working again.
"The biggest challenge at the moment is to find the coordinates of Blood Moon City. There is a high probability that Duke Mi Gaiya is in Blood Moon City."
On Lanqi's dining table was a huge traffic map of the city of Brillda, covered with red annotations, which showed the probability of the existence of space interfaces in various locations based on his investigations over the past few days.
"Meow meow, is Blood Moon City dangerous?"
Boss Cat squatted aside and asked uneasily.
It only plays high-end games, but it also knows that it is not good enough.
"The siege of Blood Moon City may be the most dangerous place so far, except for the northern magic land of the Protoss Empire."
Lanqi held the water cup in one hand and took a sip, staring at the map intently and muttering to himself.
If you use the level conversion method.
The northern magic realm of the Protoss Empire is a dual-lord mode. In the first stage, you will fight the level 88 Asksan, and in the second stage, the level 88 Duke Morotian will also appear.
There are four lords in the siege of Blood Moon City, namely the seventh ancestor Marquis Helitier at level 88, the eighth ancestor Marquis Somerset at level 88, the ninth ancestor Marquis Bernhard at level 88, the third ancestor Duke Lachar at level 90, and there are also several earl-level vampires above level 70.
"Also, we don't have enough manpower right now. If we can't gather enough reinforcements before the right day, we can only try to sneak in and steal Duke Migaiya out, and then slowly fight the vampires in the empire."
Lanci added.
"What if we can find enough teammates?"
Talia asked.
She had not asked Lanqi in detail about the matters concerning Blood Moon City before.
In Blood Moon City, Lanqi's [Glorious Virtue] is likely to be weakened to a certain extent. It is a natural vampire environmental barrier. She is not sure what the light and darkness judgment will be like, and she cannot rely entirely on the little sun. In team battles, it can be easily destroyed by unknown range damage.
Blood Moon City is equivalent to a super ancient city defense strategic location dominated by the vampires, and the vampires have the home advantage.
[Glorious Virtue] As a summoned creature, its biggest weakness is that it can be attacked.
Fortunately, with the blessing of the black divine brilliance of [Original Slate-Seal], its multiplier has been strengthened, which makes people feel more at ease.
"Then it is possible to demolish it by force and put an end to the cause and effect of the vampires once and for all."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Since the Kingdom of Person, Lanqi no longer makes the best plans, but instead considers the worst case scenario.
"How much combat power do we need to have a chance to forcibly break through Blood Moon City?"
Talia knew that it was not easy to break through the city’s defense facilities, and that attacking Blood Moon City might be as difficult as breaking through the imperial capital of Brillda head-on, but all hope was based on the premise that Lanci had sufficient intelligence about Blood Moon City.
The dream given by the goddess of fate gave Lanqi a deep understanding of the map and mechanism of Blood Moon City.
Of course, it is also possible that tens of thousands of years ago, Lanclos of the Black Sun paid a huge price to attack the Blood Moon City. This part of knowledge was kept by the Goddess of Fate and given to Lanqi in another form along with the mission.
"The mechanism of Blood Moon City is that the three marquises will serve as the leaders of the protective barrier. They are unkillable, but every time they are defeated, the energy supply of Blood Moon City will be weakened slightly within a certain period of time. At that time, the core protective barrier in the Blood King's Palace will be temporarily freed from the immune state."
Lanqi pondered for a while, and explained to Talia and Boss Cat, "The core of Blood Moon City is located in the Blood King's Palace, and can be charged by the third ancestor, Lachar. If the core is damaged, it will slowly recover over time. Under normal circumstances, it will only be maintained at 100%. In the event of an extremely critical raid, Duke Lachar will recharge it to 120% at all costs to trigger the annihilation mode. If the core energy is weakened to 0%, then we win and can bring the vampires back to the ground and seal them. If the core reaches 120%, we are all finished."
"So at the beginning, someone needs to go into the Blood Palace to hold back the third ancestor, Lachar, and prevent him from charging. If no one holds him back, the team will explode immediately."
"Then the rest of the people need to be divided into four teams. The three stronger teams will clear out the elite vampire earls on the way while clearing out the three lord-level vampire marquises. The other team that can clear out soldiers quickly will block the gate of Blood Moon City to prevent the brainwashed imperial army from rushing in to support the vampires."
At this point, Lanqi has finished explaining what he believes to be the best general process for the siege of Blood Moon City.
"...Then if we can gather enough troops in Brillda to attack Blood Moon City, we can go ahead?"
Talia stared at the map, stroking the paper.
She was still eager to fight, especially with those vampires who almost caused Xiu Bao's family to be destroyed. She had long wanted to let them know what tit-for-tat meant.
"That's just a prerequisite. Even if it can be met, we have to act before the National Day at the end of next month, when all the military gods return to Brillda. Only on that day will we have the best chance."
Lanqi replied, shaking his head.
"Why... choose a day when the God of War is here? Won't we face more level eight enemies? That should be the most dangerous day."
Talia looked up at Lanqi and asked him puzzledly.
Some of the military gods have been brainwashed by the [Blood Control] of the third ancestor Duke Lachar. If Taliyah has to face a few more military gods, she cannot predict how difficult it will be.
"It is precisely because the God of War cannot move freely during the ceremony. We can ensure that no God of War will join the battle of Blood Moon City. We will have about two hours to raid Blood Moon City."
Lanci replied.
As the saying goes, fortune and honor are sought in danger, and that day was also a time when they would definitely not be disturbed by the God of War.
On other days, he could not guarantee whether any of the gods of war would suddenly return, or whether the gods of war who were already in the capital would join the battle.
"What you are worried about is that the First God of War Hecintos is on Duke Lachar's side. What if he comes to kill us and we are all wiped out?"
Talia asked him.
"right."
Lanqi felt that Loren's strength was already abnormal enough, which was completely the ceiling in his cognition. However, Loren might not be as strong as Geyate, the third military god, of the Sardonyx Throne.
It was difficult for him to imagine how powerful the Obsidian Throne, the Second God of War, which was known as a gap-level existence, was, and what level the Diamond Throne, which was even stronger than the Obsidian Throne, was.
"We have to find a way to find teammates. It would be a waste for us to go to Blood Moon City alone."
He and Tataja were sweating profusely when they played against the 84-level Pearlman.
Without considering their special attacks against demons, fighting against strong human beings would be even more difficult.
Although there is a special attack when fighting against vampires, it is unstable, and you need to ensure that [Glorious Virtue] can continue to stay on the field smoothly.
"It seems that you must fight against the third ancestor, Lachar. Apart from you, even if we can find other eighth-level allies, we won't be able to deal with that guy who can influence the mind."
Talia folded her arms and said in distress.
"So we need enough strong teammates to pass through Blood Moon City. If we can't pass through Blood Moon City, we can only try our luck and rescue Duke Migaiya."
Lanqi looked at the [Ultra-Long-Distance Communication Program-7] in his hand.
Now he has tried his best to climb up the empire, but it will take time for things to ferment and for him to wait for an opportunity to start taking power.
There may be members of this organization who are willing to solve the empire's disaster.
Judging from the level of Landry, the former owner of this sacred communication magic, if it is a scientific researcher or a high-ranking figure in the empire, his rank may only be level six, but he may also be a guy with considerable combat power.
No. 1 is even more unfathomable. He was able to develop the Pink Sacred Series' [Ultra-Long-Distance Communication Program], or at least was the provider of its principles.
"Anyway, let's go through the Shadow World first."
Talia patted his shoulder in comfort.
Lanqi must at least reach the seventh level, step into the realm of true transcendence, and undergo a qualitative change in physical and mental strength. Only then, in theory, will he have a chance to withstand Lachar.
Otherwise, even if Ranchi is immune to Lachar's mental magic, Lachar can kill Ranchi with her using ordinary magic attacks.
"Well, about a week later, mid-October, is the agreed time. I have asked Secretary Naira to apply for the Challenger privileges of the Shadow World for me."
As a professor at the Monastery of Saint Clement, it is normal for Lanqi to challenge the shadow world, and he can also get a corresponding vacation.
As long as the time in the Shadow World is not too long, we can catch up with the November Imperial Plan mentioned by Duke Dax.
"Will we be able to see Xiu Bao in the Shadow World in a week?"
Talia murmured, her expression softening.
When she thought of Hyperion, her heart was filled with throbbing. Talia felt empty after not seeing Hyperion for two months. She didn't know whether Hyperion was living well or not, whether she was hungry, throwing off the quilt, or unhappy every day.
"She must still be in your room, listening to music, feeding the fox, and reading the newspaper in her armchair."
Lanqi sat in his seat, smiled confidently and raised his hand.
Staying in Talia's room, Lanqi could already imagine what Hyperion would look like.
Just thinking about Hyperion being assimilated made Lanqi laugh.
Talia felt that Lanci deserved to die a little bit, but she was too lazy to argue with Lanci about it.
"It's a pity that Hyperion and I have to separate again after spending a shadow world together. I miss her."
She lowered her golden eyes and said regretfully.
Although she knew that it was inconvenient for her to live with Xu Bao since her soul was tied to Lanqi's, she still couldn't help but think about it.
