Chapter 626: Surprising Attack
At this moment, the elf also noticed the gaze cast by Avis and the half-smile on his face, and his body suddenly stiffened slightly.
The next moment, he tried to act as if nothing had happened and said a few words to the girl in front of him.
Then, under Avis's gaze, the girl looked at him curiously, and then walked over directly with the last dragonborn, pinched the hem of her skirt with both hands, bent her knees slightly, and saluted him gracefully.
"Hello, young sir, Paola Black Feather sends you greetings—"
"Your Highness, the Princess of the Black Feather Kingdom? Hello, I'm Anvis, Anvis Olivendi."
Avis also saluted, feeling a little surprised.
The Last Dragonborn was able to influence her actions, which meant that the other party was most likely not someone who sneaked in disguised as a servant, but was brought in by her.
"So it's you. I've heard people around me mention your name. You are the most outstanding descendant of Grand Duke Karlas!"
Princess Paola blinked her big green eyes, revealing the innocent expression unique to young girls, and spoke the compliments in a very natural tone.
"Unfortunately, my father's most outstanding offspring is not me, but my sister. Many people know that her talent is much better than mine."
But Anvis shook his head and refused to accept the title.
"Oh, well, since you can reject my compliment without hesitation, I guess you have a good relationship with her."
Seeing this, Paola maintained a sweet smile and tried to change her words.
"Indeed, but she was taken away by the evil organization [Door in the Eyes] of the Federation and her whereabouts are still unknown."
Avis had a strange look on his face. Although Fiona had been rescued, the news was currently only circulated among the ninth-level people of the two major families, and the outside world was still in a state of rumors.
"You are really straightforward...haha."
The smile was a little stiff. The little princess tried hard to resist the urge to roll her eyes and tried her best to maintain her composure.
"Well, Your Highness, what do you want to talk to me about?"
However, after teasing her a little, Anvis stopped teasing her.
The princess's strength was only at level five, and her guard was only at the peak level of level seven. It was only because of the last dragon descendant that he was able to divert some of his attention.
"No, nothing. I just heard from my followers that they saw you, so I wanted to come and meet you to satisfy my little curiosity about you."
As she spoke, Princess Paola couldn't help but secretly glare at the last dragonborn who made her feel a little embarrassed.
Looking at the prompt [Paola's Character Favorability -5] that popped up on the panel, the elf was in tears.
"Then Paola will not disturb Your Excellency from watching the meeting."
Finally, she bowed slightly to Avis and prepared to leave with the last dragonborn.
"Please wait a moment, Your Highness Paola, can I ask about the origin of this follower of yours? He seems to be familiar to me."
But at this moment, Avis suddenly spoke to keep her.
"You mean Sifri? He is... I met him during one of my outings. He was captured by a group of bandits, and I asked my guards to save him. Then, in order to repay me for saving his life, he voluntarily followed me."
"I see. I must have recognized the wrong elf. Sorry."
After listening to Paola's description, Avis looked at the last dragonborn with a strange look, which made the elf's eyelids twitch.
My goodness, in other stories, the hero saves the beauty, but in your story, it's the other way around? Deliberately emphasizing the word "mistaken elf", Avis stopped trying to keep them, and watched Paola and the last dragonborn walk away.
But when he was about to continue watching the meeting, his heart suddenly jumped. He turned back suddenly, his eyes focused again on the girl's back.
Something is about to happen to her that will have a huge impact on her destiny, and this thing is somehow related to him!
Seeing the two people walking away, seemingly planning to temporarily leave the viewing area and head to the rest area, Avis' eyes flickered slightly, and then he immediately decided to quietly follow them to see.
But at this moment, a sentence coming from the meeting hall attracted his attention again.
"Well, next, we should discuss how to deal with the Circle of Truth. The existence of this special organization is a threat to all of us."
This voice came from Federal Parliament Speaker Loran XV. As he mentioned this topic, others immediately responded widely.
As a "civilian resistance organization", the Circle of Truth not only has a mysterious leader who is at the ninth level, but also has the terrifying power to forcibly kill the Speaker of the Federal Parliament and expel Maelim in a very short time.
Most importantly, prophecy is almost completely ineffective against this organization. No one knows the identity of its core members, which makes them like poisonous snakes lurking in the dark, and no one knows when they will reveal their deadly fangs.
Almost everyone present was in danger for this Sword of Damocles-like organization. If they could kill even the Speaker, wouldn't they be in even greater danger?
Now, when the Speaker of the Federal Parliament brought it up, they all immediately supported the vigorous implementation of the eradication operation, and Avis's face changed slightly after hearing this.
However, when he came to his senses and found that Princess Paola had disappeared outside the viewing area, he hurriedly left his clone here to continue watching the meeting, while he quickly chased after her.
But when he chased out of the viewing area, he found that Princess Paola and the last dragon were gone.
A bit wary of this abnormal situation, Avis followed his vague feeling and walked towards a door on the side of the waiting area.
It was not an exit, but an area similar to a utility room, where some spare furniture and other items would be piled up, waiting to be replaced in case the furnishings outside were damaged.
But when Avis's hand just touched the gold-plated door handle, a sharp crisis warning came like an electric shock, stimulating every nerve in his body like a cold steel knife.
Avis's movements suddenly stopped, and a thin layer of cold sweat instantly seeped out of his forehead.
Can't open it, can't open it, can't open it! Absolutely can't open it!
His spiritual sense was warning him frantically, as if some kind of great terror was waiting for him behind the door. Under this stimulation, the old secret book on his waist also instinctively emitted a faint dark green fluorescence, as if it sensed some kind of threat.
How could this happen? Where are Paola and the Last Dragonborn? Slowly releasing his grip on the goal handle, Avis slowly backed away until the sense of crisis subsided again.
Without any hesitation, Avis took out a black crystal ball. It was used for daily communication with the last dragonborn, but it could also be used to directly locate the specific position of another crystal ball.
With one hand on the crystal ball, Avis cast a tracing spell. A white glowing line appeared in Avis's sight, one end connected to the crystal ball, and the other end extended straight to the door in the distance.
What the hell are they doing in there?
Seeing this result, Avis was puzzled, but he couldn't help but create another clone and planned to take the risk to go in and take a look.
Before the clone went into exploration, Avis himself quickly returned to the viewing area and stayed with the leaders of the three empires.
This place is now considered the place with the highest security level in the entire continent. If something goes wrong here, there is nothing he can do.
But before Avis had time to send his clone in to explore, a sudden change occurred.
A huge explosion of magical power erupted behind the door, completely annihilating the waiting area and Avis's clone. The terrifying fluctuations of the power of rules alarmed everyone in the venue.
The next moment, the magical image in the waiting area that had turned into ruins was quickly projected into the conference hall by the spellcaster in charge of security.
In the midst of a pile of charred rubble, a huge figure in tattered yellow robe was floating in the air. The incomparably powerful and strange force was even able to directly affect everyone present through the video image.
