"I heard about your story." The queen on the throne called Lin Yuan to her side. "Child, there is no need to be too gentle with those sentinels."

Lin Yuan shifted his attention from the corner, "Too gentle to the sentinel?"

During these days, the Queen would often instruct her in combat techniques as a guide.

But Lin Yuan didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence. The Sentinels were his partners and friends on the battlefield. Wasn't it right to be gentle to friends?

"They are just some weak creatures. There is no need to expend too much energy on them."

The pale queen's voice was gentle, like an elder admonishing and instructing the younger generation.

She stood up and walked along the long corridor with Lin Yuan.

The two of them walked through the white stone pillars covered with murals as if they were taking a walk, and went straight to the dark corner, in front of the huge cage.

"It's actually a very easy thing to make them lie dormant."

Several sentries in the hall strode over, knelt on one knee in front of the queen, and pulled open the curtain draped in front of the iron cage.

In the damp and dark iron cage crouched a half-beast sentry.

His appearance is very strange.

Its back had half a torn blue butterfly wing spread out, its head and arms looked like an adult male, but below the abdomen was a bulging insect body that glowed like a firefly in the dark.

It looked like a half-human, half-beast creature, and it emitted low, painful sounds from its mouth. It was already on the verge of going berserk.

Lying in the dark cage, he had been tortured and looked horrible, with half of his broken glasses still hanging on his straight nose.

He was a very handsome sentry, and also very strong. Torture had not erased his sharpness. When the curtain was opened, he struggled to grab the railing, and his eyes in the dark looked through the cage with deep hatred.

The queen reached out and held Lin Yuan's hand.

Once upon a time, this hand gave Lin Yuan a warm and soft feeling.

Now, as if the disguise had been taken off, the palms were cold and damp, and the skin was sticky.

The queen held Lin Yuan's hand. Lin Yuan could clearly feel a cold force spreading across the hall like frost, heading straight towards the imprisoned sentry.

The angry sentry fell down immediately.

Lin Yuan caught a very strange emotion.

In that dark cage, it was like grass wet by rain and dew, with night cats scratching and butterflies clinging together.

The sentry had his sharp teeth and claws removed, and he lay paralyzed on the ground, turning into a pool of water and a ball of burning charcoal.

He tried to control himself at first, but soon he began to struggle without caring about his image.

Sweat soaked the ground, and my body was like a dried-up fish, lacking oxygen. I struggled to open my mouth, but no sound came out.

The lower half of the insect's abdomen glowed, flickering rhythmically in the darkness.

Although Lin Yuan had never seen it before, she still knew that this was the induction of the sentinel's binding fever.

This is a state that is induced only when the Sentinel and the Guide become soul mates and are closest to each other.

The queen simply tapped her fingers, and just like that in the hall, she made the powerful sentinel surrender.

It aroused his sexual fever and at the same time sapping his strength, leaving him powerless to resist. He could only lie on the ground, letting his sweat soak through his clothes, uttering tiny, low sounds of despair and pain.

Around the hall, several armed guards stood tall and straight with indifferent expressions.

They stared indifferently at their former colleagues and partners, lying on the ground struggling in pain.

The palace on the top of the tower has always been empty, with only the queen living here alone.

Now, perhaps to guard this prisoner, several armed sentinels were dispatched.

The sentries stood quietly, watching the person struggling in the cage, without even a trace of emotion on their cold faces.

Lin Yuan pulled his hand away.

The hand holding hers only felt cold before, but now it made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

The food in my stomach seemed to be churning, and I felt like vomiting.

"What's wrong? Are you not used to it?" The pale queen looked at her, her face covered by a white veil, and her features could not be seen.

Behind that thin layer of white gauze, there seemed to be countless pairs of staring eyes.

The cold eyes looked over from the distant void and stared straight at Lin Yuan.

It was as if there was a thousand-pound force pressing on Lin Yuan's shoulders, asking her to be gentler, lower her knees, and be taught and watch carefully this good show of humiliating others for fun.

Lin Yuan could feel that the Queen's attitude towards him had always been very strange.

She could not understand the Queen's ill will towards her, or that Her Majesty's love for her was even genuine.

But that kind of feeling of love always made Lin Yuan feel creepy and his back felt cold, as if it would happily eat him alive at the next moment.

Lin Yuan gritted his teeth and looked back at the cold emperor beside him.

The young Kraken saw a strange and huge creature in the vast sea of ​​​​spirituality.

It is in a very far away place, with a blurry appearance, many eyes, countless arms and all kinds of strange limbs, like a monster made up of countless lives mixed together.

Abnormally huge and weird, powerful mental fluctuations were like a solution that could corrode everything and pollute everything in the world, slowly coming across the water.

"You are still young and don't understand the fun of this."

The Queen sighed mildly and waved her hand good-naturedly, releasing the restraints.

The sentry in the iron cage collapsed from the painful sobbing, completely paralyzed in the damp and dark cage. His body twitched slightly, his eyes were scattered, and he shed tears and saliva uncontrollably, no longer with the sharp eyes filled with hatred just now.

"Child, the strong control the weak, this is the law of this world." The queen's voice was very soft, coming from the netherworld, subtly and silently corroding people's hearts.

"You are just still young. You will understand all this sooner or later."

Lin Yuan began to think about this sentence very seriously.

Today, she gradually realized that she held great power in her hands, and most of the guides and sentinels in this world might not be her match.

She should be able to get a lot and control a lot of people easily like Her Majesty the Queen.

Just move your fingers and you can invade forcefully, make the strong surrender, and control the joys and sorrows of others.

Able to be liked, feared and loved passionately by others at will.

Not very difficult, very tempting.

Many familiar faces flashed through Lin Yuan's mind: Xiaoniao, Rachel, Guo Suo, Xunhua, Nicole, Yunluo...

She thought about how she had gradually developed a spiritual connection with those lovely people.

How I slowly went from being a lonely freak to someone with so many friends.

Those processes are slow, difficult, not easy, and require you to put your heart into it.

Finally she thought of the fish.

That huge whale swimming in the deep sea, shaking its head and tail.

He tried carefully, slowly opening up that beautiful and mysterious underwater world to himself, and working hard to get closer to him little by little. After going through a lot and being together for a long time, the two of them could become so close and trusting.

The Queen's spiritual pollution was silent. But a light lit up on the surging sea, its clear light clearing away the thick fog.

Lin Yuan found his true self.

The lights came on in the darkness, and Lin Yuan's will became firm at that moment.

Everything around her was rotten, dirty, weird and strange, even as strong as huge waves, could no longer corrode or shake her, making her feel afraid.

Lin Yuan looked at the pale and cold queen in front of him, and at this moment he felt that she was not as powerful and invincible as he had imagined.

She could even sense the Queen sighing slightly in disappointment.

At this moment, there was a slight vibration from the White Tower.

It was like a violent explosion, and the strong impact shook the rock-solid white tower.

Even standing in the palace on top of the tower, one can feel the slight vibration caused by the explosion.

At that moment, everyone in the White Tower showed a look of confusion and surprise.

Being attacked, this has never happened before.

The White Tower is huge, solid, towering into the clouds, and shrouded in holy light. It is the symbol of the Empire and an unshakable thing in everyone's heart.

The White Tower is not only heavily guarded, but also staffed with elite Royal Guards, equipped with the most advanced security systems, and blessed by the Holy Light.

Since the appearance of the White Tower in human history, no one has ever invaded the White Tower, and no one has ever desecrated this holy place shrouded in holy light.

The queen, who was speaking softly, turned her head at that instant, and looked down with a gloomy gaze through the white veil covering her face.

Those cold eyes were like the frost in winter, seemingly able to penetrate through layers of space and look directly at the bottom of the white tower.

On the bottom floor of the White Tower, thick smoke from the explosion filled the air and piercing alarms rang out.

The two girls who caused the explosion walked through the fire with their heads down in the hot wind raised by the flames and gestured to each other.

"Retreat immediately."

They were agile and powerful sentinels, like two swallows flying over a cold pond, passing through the huge fireworks.

Before the guards could react, they had already escaped along the pre-planned route under the cover of smoke and explosions.

Rushing out of the white tower in the thick smoke, one step away was the bright sunny world outside the tower. One of the girls had already made a successful gesture to her companion.

The next moment, a cold consciousness came from the top of the tower like an avalanche, instantly capturing her.

The girl opened her mouth, took two steps with difficulty, and stood stiffly at the dividing line between light and shadow, motionless.

Upon seeing this, her companion immediately pulled out a syringe and stabbed it into his own neck without hesitation.

The next second, a strong fluorescent light belonging to a sentinel lit up in her eyes. She grabbed her companion who had lost the ability to move and ran away at an accelerated speed.

She ran as fast as lightning, without hesitation. With the help of drugs, she blocked all emotions. Even her powerful consciousness like a rolling snow could not catch her.

A supporting vehicle drove up in the distance, and the two sentries who had detonated explosives on the basement floor of the White Pagoda jumped into the vehicle and drove away far away outside the city of Kyoto.

"Detonation mission completed. Avenger?, be careful?." In the car, the fleeing sentry sent a text message to a hidden personal terminal.

The White Tower was shaking from top to bottom in the roar of the explosion.

Whether it was the Guidance Academy, Sentinel Barracks, Research Institute, Agricultural Base or the Imperial Officials Office at the top, everyone was inquiring in astonishment and asking each other what had happened.

The Royal Guards rushed past.

Finance Minister Victor stood up uneasily from his soft and luxurious chair.

"What's going on? Why is there such a vibration? What happened?" he asked in confusion.

He shouted a few times, and the sentries outside seemed to have all run away. No one answered.

His house was in the best location, quiet and independent, with ample space and luxurious furnishings, enough to highlight his distinguished status.

There were too many incense sticks lit in the room, and Victor suddenly felt weak and unsteady on his feet.

At this moment, a tall figure walked into the fragrant office against the light.

Victor squinted his eyes for a while and found that it was a sentry he knew.

A member of the Royal Guard, his name seems to be Ni Ji.

"It seems there was an attack by thugs. It's not a big deal. Commander Luther is already handling it."

The sentry said this and walked slowly in, closing the heavy door inlaid with gold and gems.

The sentry's voice was gentle and reassuring. He walked forward, revealing a handsome face in the swirling smoke.

The dim light cast a steep silhouette under his nose and brow, making his face look half in light and half in darkness, with a sharp and bright beauty.

Like a thin blade drawn from its sheath, bright and dazzling, is it something that these nobles who are addicted to wine, sex and fragrance will never possess.

Victor likes dazzling things, and he likes to dirty beautiful things even more, so he smiled and waved to the sentry to come over.

"Luther can handle it, you come... over here."

The sentry was very docile, just like all inferior people in front of him, and his smile was very nice.

The next moment, a white light flashed before my eyes.

Victor looked at his hands in disbelief.

The hand that had once controlled the life and death of countless people appeared in his sight, covered in blood.

The fat, jeweled hand fell to the ornate carpet, along with his head.

He opened his eyes wide, not understanding why he would have such a day. He was obviously a superior person, the most noble royal family.

Ni Ji kicked away the bloody head and moved away the heavy chair that was shining with golden light.

Under the ground where the chair was, there appeared a long and deep hole.

He shook off the bloodstains on the black knife and walked towards the slanted hole.

On top of the White Tower, the closest to the Imperial Palace, under the desk of an important official of the Empire, there is such a secret place. Who knows what is hidden there?

…

Inside the palace, Her Majesty the Queen, sitting high on the throne, withdrew her gaze, as if she had noticed something, and a rare sneer appeared on her thin red lips.

"Ah, it's really amazing. An ant actually crawled in."

She turned to Lin Yuan and said, "Looks like I have to go down there myself. Will you just stay here?"
