Chapter 1293 The Witch's Words
On one side of the mountainside, in the pavilion.
The witch closed the folding fan in her hand, patted her palm lightly from time to time, and looked up and down at He Ming with her phoenix eyes.
"Although I expected you to make some big moves, I never thought you would bring back a world destroyer."
"World Destroyer. This is the title of the Invincible East. He is also the target that the fortress must guard against. Right?"
He Ming recalled the scene of the garrison troops on high alert just now and asked.
"Yes. From a common sense point of view, it is true. The World Destroyer is the mortal enemy of the Star Sea and the Fortress. Once discovered, there will be a life-and-death battle until one of them is destroyed."
The witch acknowledged He Ming's speculation, but left a glimmer of possibility.
"However, there is something subtle about Dongfang Bubai's existence. And this subtlety happens to be related to you and the princess of the Morning Wind elves, Didlina Morning Wind."
The witch held the folding fan, pointed at He Ming, and continued.
"You once received help from Domon Kashu on the Guiana Plateau. You also accepted his commission and established contact with Domon Kashu in World β63101, and then provided him with help."
"And the Morningwind Elf Princess followed you into World 63101 because of the Sky Knight Anduin. After participating in and witnessing everything, she brought back the seeds left by the Sky Knight Anduin. I believe that when you see the Elf Princess again, she may be able to remove the three words "reserve" and become a true Sky Knight."
"A real Sky Knight?"
He Ming couldn't help but think of the emblem that appeared on Didelina's forehead after Anduin burned the sapling of the World Tree.
When the witch saw He Ming thinking, she chuckled a few times.
"Haha. Do you think you are the only one who has received the inheritance? The Sky Knight inheritance of the Morning Wind Elves is particularly special. It is not passed down through hand-in-hand or word of mouth as humans imagine. Instead, it is passed down through a mark similar to the World Tree, which engraves the combat skills and experience of the previous generation of Sky Knights into the bodies of suitable people, allowing them to gradually interpret the mark with their own souls in the following years, and finally receive the complete inheritance."
"So, the newly born Sky Knights are not that powerful. The truly powerful Sky Knights are those who have accepted the title of Sky Knight for the first hundred years. At this time, the Sky Knights have already tended to be perfect and are capable of taking on any difficult tasks."
As the witch spoke, a smile flashed in her eyes.
"Of course. This is a widely held belief in the Star Sea. After receiving the inheritance, some talented Sky Knight reserve officers can successfully complete the transformation and become true Sky Knights in just a few decades or even ten years."
"Do you think Deedlina has the talent?"
He Ming asked back.
The witch smiled mysteriously but said nothing more.
After all, sometimes speaking too clearly can make the future rather boring.
A witch wouldn't do that, or it would lose some of the fun.
"Okay. That's enough about the elves. Now, it's time to talk about you."
"I?"
"Yes. From now on, I'm afraid you won't be able to wander around the mission world leisurely. After all, such a great god has come to your home. This is the first time in countless years that the fortress has welcomed a world destroyer who is able to have friendly conversations and consciously wants to destroy the abyss. Velos will not miss this opportunity to learn about the abyss and the ghost faces that caused the world to be destroyed through Dongfang Bubai."
"Snap!" The witch opened the folding fan and smiled slightly.
"Of course. The so-called understanding does not mean slicing and research. It is to understand through dialogue, within the limits of Dongfang Bubai's own will. There is a lot of discussion about this in the core network of the fortress."
"It seems that someone doesn't want to see the World Destroyer appear in the Fortress."
He Ming understood what the witch meant, and he also knew that being able to exchange intelligence with Dongfang Bubai in a friendly way such as dialogue should be the best result that the Wanshiwu, the Castle Legion and even the various forces of Velos could strive for.
"That's inevitable. In the core network of the fortress, there are many representatives from races whose home planets were destroyed by the abyss. Although they cannot interfere with the operation and production of the fortress, they have a lot of say in foreign affairs."
The witch cast her gaze towards the figure standing in front of the newly erected tombstone not far away and thought for a moment.
"It is the most correct choice at present to include Dongfang Bubai, the world destroyer who intends to destroy the Abyss and the Ghost Faces, into the fortress's combat force list. Those racial representatives must also understand this, but their positions and the support behind them do not allow them to agree to this."
"trouble."
After hearing this, He Ming slowly uttered a word, causing the witch to laugh out loud and shake her body.
"Hahaha! You are right. That group of people are just a bunch of troublemakers. Every time they are mentioned, it makes people feel annoyed. Well! Let Velos handle these things. Just let you know. There is no need to care about it, and there is no need to get involved."
"By the way, I won't get any new missions next?"
He Ming brought the topic back.
"Well, you can say that. But there will still be missions. However, they will be missions directly targeting the Ghost Faces, rather than the previous missions that require entering the mission world. You must be mentally prepared! Haha, of course. According to your current strength and family background, you will definitely be able to fight against those hiding guys from the Ghost Faces."
The witch looked at He Ming with a smile, making He Ming feel as if he was seen through.
"time?"
He Ming asked.
"Well. That's hard to say. After all, whether or not we can capture the whereabouts of the Ghost Faces depends on how much key intelligence this World Destroyer you brought back can provide. So, before that, you should have some spare time to deal with the finishing touches left over from the previous mission worlds."
As he was speaking, a refreshing fragrance wafted towards him, and He Ming felt a folding fan tapping gently on his shoulder.
"I'm reminding you. Although I don't know the exact time yet, I hope you can seize the opportunity brought by this free time and finish the finishing work you left behind as soon as possible, and integrate resources as quickly as possible... Well, there's no need to say more about the rest."
After saying this, the witch opened her folding fan again, waved it gently, walked slowly out of the pavilion, and met with the maid Lian who came to greet her.
He Ming frowned slightly, turned around and found that the maid Lian was saluting him with the highest etiquette of a warrior.
After the ceremony, the maid Lian whispered a few words to the witch, and after getting the witch's permission, she strode towards the figure standing in front of the tombstone.
Seeing this, He Ming raised his eyes and looked at the leaves swaying slightly in the breeze.
"The rain is coming!"
