Chapter 492 Scallop Series



Watching the bright purple light changing in the night sky above the dome, the veiled Efalina picked up the oyster, raised her neck and slurped it down, saying casually, "The Queen's New Clothes are ready."

"Ah?" Anfil was stunned and swallowed the shrimp in his mouth.

"It's a celebration firework that's set off every fifty years, but it's normal that you didn't know about it since you haven't been involved in it." Yilin said, "This is a joint project between Beldette, Salome, and Mercury. We jointly planned a fireworks feast for the Isu royal family. We started making it three years ago. The code name is "The Queen's New Clothes." Before the fireworks are officially launched, a location test is required. Now the bright purple halo in the night sky means that all units are ready."

"Once every fifty years? How many times has Beldette done this?"

"If I remember correctly, Beldette seems to have been the royal family's fireworks supplier since the second Queen Isu."

"Isn't that a traditional custom that has been passed down for seven hundred years?" Anfield thanked the chef and put the peeled crab claws into his mouth and ate them in one bite. "But why do fireworks have to be made three years in advance, and require the cooperation of the three of us?"

"I don't know the details. I'm not a worker." The blue-haired capitalist said, "You only need to know two things: first, this firework requires the user to be at least a Sanctuary magician; second, this firework must be visible to all Gospels."

Anfil blinked and said, "You mean, the fireworks are ready all over the country, and we'll set them off when the time comes?"

"No, there are only fifty fireworks, and they will only be activated in Nabisteen." Yilin said, "According to the product design, these fireworks are integrated with space materials from the distant space, such as the 'Unforgettable Wood', 'Blowing Water', and 'Sound Palace Pearls'. When the fifty fireworks resonate at close range, they can produce an effect that is almost a miracle of space, allowing the fireworks to spread to the sky of the whole gospel, and everyone can celebrate the birth of the new queen at the same time."

"That's why the user must be a Sanctuary magician. A magician who is not proficient in the space faction is not even qualified to set off fireworks."

Anfil put a spoonful of crab roe into his mouth and said in surprise while eating: "So now Nabistin has fifty Sanctuary magicians on standby, just to set off fireworks?!"

"What's so strange?" Yilin took a sip of Ruby Helala Fei. "The vast majority of the Holy Lands and all the legends of the Full Gospel are in Nabisteen. The Isu royal family was able to ask the Holy Land to set off fireworks for them hundreds of years ago, let alone now?"

"Was it so grand hundreds of years ago?" Anfeil was a little surprised: "In my impression, the Yisu royal family is not so fond of ostentation... Is there something special about this firework?"

"Except for the requirement that the basic pattern cannot be changed, we are free to do everything else." Yilin shrugged. "In addition, the royal family of Yisu will provide the materials, and we three companies only need to be responsible for processing. In addition, the requirements are low, the remuneration is high, and the royal family will provide technical support. When I saw this business plan, I thought the royal family of Yisu was doing charity."

"Because of the high quality, the fireworks effect is absolutely gorgeous and unforgettable." Yifalin winked at her sister: "See if you like it later. If you like it, we specially made a batch of spares when we made it. I will come over and find a few saints to help, and set it off at your wedding."

Anfil ate crab meat and tilted his head: "Wedding?"

"The weaving ceremony will end tonight. Will Annan be able to tie up Igula, Yashu and the others in the future?" Yifalin propped up his chin and said, "When Igula comes back to Mengfeila, Beldette will definitely hold a grand wedding for you!"

The 'Ghost-Unnoticed Veil' rewarded by "The List of Culprits" is indeed useful. Now Efaline is becoming more and more lifelike, Anfil thought.

In order to resist the domination of the ancestral bloodline, each generation of Beldette is divided into two people to inherit the family's power. One of them is the container of the spiritual sea of ​​all living beings. His self-consciousness is crushed by the thoughts of millions of people and gradually becomes a hollow stone with only an empty shell; the other's soul is also diluted by the pure spiritual energy. No matter how intense the emotions are, they cannot stir up waves in it, causing him to become a rational person without blood and tears.

The reason why Beldette was willing to pay such a huge price was not only to prolong his life, but also to rebel against his selfish and cruel ancestor - since the descendants of the Undead Angels are just resurrection machines, don't blame these gears for being cold-blooded and ruthless.

Now with the 'Ghost-Invisible Veil', Yilin no longer needs to commit suicide before the age of 40 to resist the increasingly intense call of her bloodline. More importantly, this veil perfectly protects her soul. Now even if she has to use her family's spiritual energy, her soul will not be diluted, and the emotions that have been suppressed deep in her soul will be revived again.

Before, Efaline would only urge Anfil to get pregnant and give birth to the genius child Rhea, but now she actually cares about the wedding - although she is just projecting her yearning for marriage onto her sister, for a rational person who only regarded relatives as reproductive tools not long ago, Anfil is already very pleased with Efaline's changes.

but……

"Why are you sure that Igulla will return to Monferra?" Anfil said with a smile, "Or, why would he come to Monferra? Monferra is not his home."

"But you will be his closest family in the future. You will marry him and you will have a daughter that even Ash will envy." Yifalin said, "Why is Beldette not his home?"

"That's what Fuxing feels, not what he feels. He won't accept such a future."

"I don't understand. Is it because he doesn't like you? Or does he have no feelings for you?"

Anfeil thought about it seriously and said, "He probably likes me."

"That's it, isn't it?"

"How can I tell you..." Anfil tilted his head: "Igula, he is a tsundere."

The chef placed a plate of iceberg fish fillets on their table. Yilin ate a piece and said, "So this is what the meat of a chopped fish dragon tastes like... And then, what's wrong with him being a tsundere?"

"It's hard for him to accept entering into an intimate relationship," Anfill said. "He's like a sensitive scallop man. When others get close to him, he will wrap himself up in indifference and malice. Only when no one is paying attention to him will he quietly open up his gaps, revealing his softness in a place where no one else can see, and feel the warmth of the surroundings."

"I'm not the first person he likes, nor will I be the last. Although he has witnessed my blossoming, he won't stop for me, because what he needs is not a family member he can rely on, but an equally powerful opponent."

Anfill said: "We may like each other, and our relationship is not over, but we will not have a future."

The blue-haired rich woman nodded thoughtfully: "I understand."

"I understand," Anfil blinked, "Since you have already given him all the other information about the ruling faction, don't bother him anymore in the future—"

"I will tie up Igula and feed him the "strengthening potion" produced by Fanmula. Then, after you give birth to Leia, he will be unable to escape. Then I will hold a wedding for you." Yifalin said, "It's hard for you to be a female knight."

Anfeil no longer knew whether his sister was thinking rationally or emotionally: "I mean, we are not suitable..."

"You are the one who is not suitable for him, not him for you." Yilin rolled her eyes. "Even the gospel cannot guarantee that it can make everyone happy. Now that you can see a future where at least you can be happy, why miss it? And how do you know if this is the best ending that Igula can achieve? If he misses you, maybe he will end up alone."

"But he won't--"

"It's obviously you who don't want to accept the future woven by the Gospel." Yilin said while eating the fish slices, "Because Rusty Crow cares more about the business than you, and because you are not satisfied with that future, so you just give up - why don't you try to fight for a better future? You said he needs an evenly matched opponent, so why don't you try to become that kind of character?"

Anfil looked at his sister in shock, his expression was as if he saw a fat latino discussing philosophy.

"Fuyin had already filleted the fish, put it on a plate, and handed it to you on an iceberg, but you thought it lacked flavor and chose to throw it away instead of seasoning it yourself?" Yilin said, "You said he was a scallop type, but you are actually the same type as him, right? It's just that Igula resists others with indifference, and you protect yourself with gentleness."

"In the final analysis, you all don't have the confidence to maintain an intimate relationship, and the gospel is just an excuse for you." The blue-haired rich woman clenched her fists: "So the gospel list is not for you to see, but for me to see. At this rate, I'm afraid that even if the world is destroyed, you won't even be able to create Leia. I have to forcibly pry open your scallops and season you well!"

Because of what Yilin said, she felt a little greedy. She turned around and said, "Give me a portion of steamed scallops!"

The two chefs nodded silently. At this moment, the sisters' hearty meal would naturally attract the attention of other people in the hall.

The guests who were qualified to attend this dinner would become the ruling class who ruled the world together with the Yisu royal family. Although the food at the dinner was rich and delicious, it was nothing compared to the fragrance of power.

The new queen, Azure Lane, future rankings, doomsday disaster... there are too many things to discuss. Now everyone is discussing how to prevent class slippage or make further progress. How can this blue-haired man still eat?!

And eat so much!

But Yifalin no longer cared - after the battle at Beldate Manor, she had offended almost 60% of the gospel forces, and the other 40% were extremely wary of her.

Even though everyone knew that Igula was the mastermind behind this, the information that "Beldate can completely control the Sanctuary" was enough to cause panic. Now all the staff who contacted Beldate were replaced by ordinary people, and a warning "No Monferrans allowed" was hung outside the Sanctuary magician's office.

Rather than saying they were ostracizing Eliflin, it would be better to say they were afraid of Eliflin. After all, the ruling faction of Belldette was really hard to guard against, and a casual polite "OK" might turn into a foreshadowing of "I volunteer to be Miss Eliflin's dog."

So, Efalene and Anfil hid in a corner to enjoy the food. Although this dinner was a buffet, some food had to be cooked to order, such as the seafood they were eating.

In addition to normal seafood, this place also provides virtual creature ingredients such as "fish-cutting dragon", "mud fish dragon", "fox lantern dragon", etc. Although these ingredients are no different from normal ingredients, it is very rare for virtual creatures to escape to reality. Even top nobles like Belldette find it difficult to purchase such ingredients, so Yifalin naturally cannot miss it.

As they were trying to deal with the fish-slaying dragon, two tall and plump elves suddenly sat down next to them.

"Is it tasty?"

"Not bad." Yilin raised her head and looked at Qinna: "Want some?"

"I dare not accept the kindness from Beldette." Qinna smiled and said, "I am here to discuss business with you."

"Talking about business?" Yifalin felt a little amused. "Famula doesn't need an amusement park to make its residents happy, and Mengfeila doesn't need mermaid houttuynia to improve work enthusiasm. The Six Emblems will not tolerate their people being dominated, and I will not tolerate the emergence of a united family in Mengfeila... What areas can we cooperate in? Jointly develop Igula and Ash?"

"The Six Emblems have no need for Igula for now," Qinna replied, "but we obviously have common interests, for example... an unimagined road that has been cut off for seven hundred years."

"Are you interested in welcoming a sunrise without a queen?"

As Eflin's expression remained unchanged, Anfel instantly understood the elven leader's subtext: "You want to deal with the princess? Why?"

"By Ash Hiss." Nona said.

Even An Nan could think of a killer move, so they naturally understood it immediately. Yifalin suddenly smiled and said, "Give him what he wants and give him what he needs. I've been taught by the family motto again... What do you want me to do?"

"Among all the guests present," Qinna stared at Yifalin, "how many people can you control?"

Anfil's face changed, but Falin remained calm and said, "Three-fifths, but I won't risk my life with you, and I won't reveal this trump card completely. At most, I will let them fish in troubled waters and disrupt the situation."

"That's enough." Qinna approached Yifalin and looked down at the young patriarch who was more powerful than her: "Happy cooperation."

“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”

In a few words, the two major forces of the Gospel reached an anti-Isu alliance. The reason for being so rash was not only because they did not need to pay much, it was almost the same as buying a lottery ticket, but also because they had long been tired of the constraints of the Isu royal family.

Qinna didn't feel it so obviously, but Yifalin deeply felt the complete control of the Isu royal family over the country - unlike the family system, Beldette's "Flower Shell System" has almost no threshold, and it is almost easy to expand. However, it has been confined to the surrounding areas of Mengfeila. It is obviously the national champion but can only play in the community competition. Anyone would feel frustrated.

There was an invisible hand in the gospel. When Beldette tried to reach out and touch something that he shouldn't touch, the invisible hand would push Beldette back. No matter how Afaleen expanded her loan business, she would not be able to adapt to the local climate once she left Monferra. Even the secret of "giving what he wants and giving what he needs" was completely ineffective.

It's not just Efalin. Her fathers, grandparents, and even many generations before them have all tried to break through the map of Monferra, but they were quickly pushed back into the cage. There was no administrative intervention, no financial sanctions, and no one even found fault, but no one cared.

The same is true for other families, Salome, Mercury, Six Emblems... These powerful forces that are well-known in their respective regions are ultimately unable to escape the cage created for them by the gospel.

Therefore, when Qinna asked Yifalin whether to do Yisu or not, Yifalin would have no second choice at all - rationally, Beldate must eliminate the obstacle of Yisu before he can move forward; emotionally, how could Yifalin not covet the supreme position of the Gospel Kingdom?

She is the 'caged bird king' Yilin who rules over millions of people in Mengfeila. Her deep desire for power has already permeated her girlish heart!

"Give them what they want and give them what they need" is not only the secret to dominating factions, but also the side effect of dominating factions! What desire is more exciting than power? What temptation is more depraved than dominating millions of people?

Those who have tasted the beauty of power are like wolves that have been hungry for a long time, and their stomachs can never be filled! Millions of people, tens of millions of people, and finally turning the whole world into their slaves, this is the deep-rooted professional ethics of every domination magician!

For Efaline, she felt trapped in the gospel, trapped in this country full of miracles, the gospel everywhere, and no adventure at all.

This is the happiness of the weak, but the sorrow of the strong.

Now that there is finally a chance to break this cage, how could Yifalin be unwilling to provide a little help?

In Ash and Kyna's plan, if they can bring Efaline in, the success rate of the plan will reach 50%!

After quickly communicating the plan through the Gospel, Anfil suddenly realized a problem: "Since Ash has come in, are the other people from Igula here too?"

Qinna smiled slightly: "What do you think of the cooking skills of these two chefs?"

The Beldette sisters were the only ones in the seafood area, so the two chefs naturally became the Beldette sisters' exclusive chefs. The one with slightly darker skin was responsible for knife work, slicing and cooking, while the other was responsible for plating and seasoning...

It was only then that Yifen realized something was wrong: she had no impression of the other chef at all!

Height, hair color, skin, age, eye color... all the features were blurry. Her attention was always fixed on the food he delivered, not a single bit on him. Naturally, she couldn't form a true image of him in her mind!

This is... the attention control of the dominant faction!

"Two guests."

As Anfield blushed, the blond chef delivered a plate of scallops to the table: "The scallops you ordered are here."
