Become the Archbishop from Douluo

Chapter 257 The Endless Journey

After entering the elevator, the maid operated the control panel a few times, then Xu Mu'an felt a tremor, and then returned to calm.

After about a few seconds, the door of the elevator slowly opened.

Xu Mu'an followed the maid and glanced through the glass window beside the corridor. She had already reached the upper floor of the entire Tongtian Tower. The road she had walked before was so small, but she was even more amazed at the efficiency of the elevator. .

Walking up a floor along a wide staircase, she finally arrived at her destination.

Two women in some kind of special combat uniform stood guard in front of the door with their guns in hand. When they saw them approaching, they reached out and stopped them.

"Hello, distinguished guest, as the queen's personal bodyguard, I must conduct a security check on you. Please hand over all your belongings first. Don't worry, I will return them to you after the check."

"Okay." Xu Mu'an's heart tightened, but his face showed no abnormalities, and he happily handed over everything he had on him - two gold soul coins, a rolled up map, and a pocket watch.

"Is the shaft of this kind of thing made of iron now?" the guard said strangely, and then tried to pull it twice, and carefully checked if there was anything caught inside, but he didn't pull it out, and it seemed nothing. abnormal.

"...Yes, it might be more durable this way, after all, this map came across the ocean from another continent." Xu Mubai said.

The guard didn't comment on this, but motioned Xu Mubai to stand on the side platform: "Okay, please stand here."

Xu Mubai obediently stood up, and a wave of light appeared from her feet, scanning her whole body from bottom to top, but when the wave of light swept over her chest, it suddenly glowed red.

"Huh? Miss, do you have any dangerous items on your body?" The two guards said slightly vigilantly.

Xu Mu'an understood what they were talking about in an instant, so he made an excuse and said, "Oh, that's a wound I left when I was young. At that time, an iron piece was stabbed into my chest, and I couldn't take it out later. Just stay there, is this what you are talking about?"

"Miss, with all due respect"

One of the guards was about to say something, but the other interrupted her.

"With all due respect, your injury is really nothing to us. After meeting with His Majesty, I can find a doctor for you to help you erase this stubborn disease."

Saying that, the guard smiled and handed her things back, and opened the door for her again.

"You have passed the security inspection and can go in."

"Okay, thank you." Xu Muan breathed a sigh of relief, and after putting away his things, he went in with the map.

Seeing Xu Mu'an go in, the two guards closed the door, the guard who was hesitant to speak before couldn't help but said: "Sister, why did you let her in, this person is obvious and cannot be more obvious."

Another guard rubbed her head, and said angrily: "You are stupid, that is His Majesty's guest, how can we deal with it? Lady Nova is inside to accompany His Majesty, so we will inform her about this matter. There is no need for us to worry, is it possible that there are still people who can successfully assassinate in front of Lord Nova?"

".It seems to be the same."

"You are just too low in EQ~"

After entering the gate, Xu Mu'an had to walk a long corridor. There were many artworks in this corridor, many of which were treasures from the original palace. Several maids were cleaning and maintaining the place, but they didn't pay attention to her. These are the bionics that Blair mentioned earlier.

At the end of the corridor is a staircase, along the stairs all the way up, the whole field of vision is suddenly clear, and the transparent dome made of glass is in sight. At this height, it is like a city in the sky, bright The starry sky here is so clear, as if you can hold the whole galaxy in your hand when you stretch out your hand.

The furnishing of the whole house is very simple, and there is no division of rooms, several bookshelves, a desk, a fireplace, several sofas, a coffee table, a big bed, and some technological gadgets, in addition, the house There is also a garden outside. It seems that this residence is very warm and quiet, maybe the city in the sky where the legendary gods live is nothing more than that.

A girl in a nightgown was kneeling on the carpet in front of the fireplace, holding a photo frame in her hand, and gently wiping it, while behind her stood a young man who was unkempt and seemed to be mentally disturbed, At this time, he was dancing and publishing his long speech.

".So, we only need to go to that continent and occupy those six fixed landmarks. In addition to obtaining enough resources to supply a fleet, we can also locate the coordinates of that world there. If we can occupy that world, we will have An inexhaustible source of energy to carry us into a stage of development of unimaginable horror."

"Your Majesty, infinite energy, that is infinite energy. If we can control this resource point, then we can build a powerful galaxy empire! And, as long as we firmly control it, no one will be able to interfere or What a great enterprise it is to influence your will!"

".So, Stetmann, the idea is very good. Can it be realized now? Our imitation near-Earth cruiser will take at least ten years to complete. Now we can't send large troops across the sea of ​​death. Send it over." The girl's clear voice sounded like a silver bell, revealing a sense of helplessness.

"Sea of ​​Death? By the way, Your Majesty, the big fish in it are treasures, and the quality is quite good. If we can kill a few, maybe our construction process can be shortened to five to seven years?" Stetman said excitedly.

"...you go down first, I'll think about it later." The girl couldn't help holding her forehead, she felt a little headache, big fish?It seems to be as simple as fishing. Which of the creatures in it has not been inherited from ancient times, and the real strength of living is now demigods. It is so easy to hunt these demigods at home.

However, these beasts are not humane. If they can communicate, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing for the two sides to develop harmoniously and benefit each other?
Of course, if you have the first big boat, fishing is actually not difficult.

But the problem is that now fishing is to speed up shipbuilding, and shipbuilding requires fishing. There is no solution to this endless cycle.

"I obey~ Your Majesty." Stetman had already finished expressing his words, so he turned and left without further words.

When passing by Xu Muan, Stetman glanced at her, and then showed a weird smile, which made Xu Muan's hair stand on end, but the other party left without talking to her.

The girl didn't notice Xu Muan's arrival, but continued to wipe the photo frame in her hand, and Xu Muan didn't make a sound to disturb her meditation.

After a while, the girl stood up from the ground. At this moment, she noticed Xu Muan's existence, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Sister, when did you come up, why didn't you tell me?" Xu Binglan put the photo frame in her hand on the tea table, and then eagerly stepped forward to grab Xu Mu'an's hand.

"Your Majesty, I think you are busy, so I'm sorry to disturb you." Xu Mu'an was very embarrassed, and took a step back subconsciously.

Xu Binglan could see Xu Muan's estrangement. After all, it might be many years since they had seen each other, so it seemed quite normal.

"Come on, sit down, let's catch up on the old days."

Xu Binglan pulled Xu Muan to sit down in the middle of the sofa, and then went to prepare tea, but when he turned around, Xu Muan was sitting about three or four meters away.

In desperation, Xu Binglan didn't try to get involved, but said helplessly: "Sister, do you still worry about what happened to your sister back then?"

"No, I know, my sister's death has nothing to do with you and it's the Queen Mother's fault."

"So, is it because you are dissatisfied with my actions against those former heroes?"

".No, I know, you're right and you've been on the right track."

Xu Binglan stared at Xu Mu'an for a few seconds, examined it carefully, and finally sighed: "I'm sorry for what happened back then, you know, I was born with a handicapped person without legs, so many things happened back then I can't do it, for example, I don't have the ability to take your sisters with me when I escape from the palace."

"The queen mother, I know exactly what kind of person she is. Although she is my mother, she wished to eat me alive after I awakened my martial spirit. She seemed to think that I was embarrassing for her. Even if she is like this to my own daughter, what's more What's more, the two of you are concubines."

"Later I heard that you were dead, and I even set up a memorial tablet for you two sisters in the back garden to commemorate my few friends, but with the development of the empire and the expansion of the intelligence network, I also know You were arranged by Uncle San Huang to live in a remote town."

"I'm very happy and worried, but I learned that you are doing well now, so I didn't bother you. It's just that the current situation is not stable, and I'm worried about what will happen in the future, so you just came back for two days. I was in a hurry to call you over."

".I understand that the conservative faction of the soul master class is about to move now. I have already learned about it below."

Xu Binglan stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the bustling city below through the floor-to-ceiling windows: "This riot has little effect on me, but it also means that none of the old soul masters who were able to rely on in the past can be trusted. But this seems to be a good thing, as you can see, there is no need for privileged classes in my empire."

"Yes, I am very envious of this kind of life, but unfortunately, I can't enjoy the peaceful and prosperous world you built."

Xu Binglan turned around and looked at Xu Mu'an with a calm expression. The meaning of her words was actually very obvious.

Xu Mu'an put the map in his hand on the table: "This is the map of another continent you want, but the scroll inside has been transformed into a one-time instant soul guide, once fully unfolded , a burst of strong current will be released."

"If you are a soul master like me, you may not die directly, but for ordinary people like you who have modified limbs or do not have soul power, it will do great harm. A powerful electric current can directly flow into the heart, killing you instantly. kill you."

Xu Binglan didn't speak, but just glanced at the corner not far away.

"In addition, a miniature bomb was implanted in my body, but this is not very powerful. As long as the distance is three meters away, there will be no danger to life."

Xu Binglan looked at the distance between himself and her on the sofa just now, it was almost exactly three meters.

".He threatened me with my mother's family. My mother's family is not of high status, but they are all good and kind people. I don't want them to die for me, so I don't plan to go back alive, but I'm even less likely Kill you, so...if you still recognize me as a friend, make me look like an assassination attempt after I die."

Xu Binglan's face was as deep as water, and after staring at Xu Mubai for a few seconds, he suddenly laughed: "I'm afraid I can't promise you, because it's too difficult for me."

"why."

"Get a good night's sleep."

As Xu Binglan finished speaking, a woman with blond hair and wearing a special combat uniform appeared behind her out of thin air, and directly knocked her out with a knife.

Xu Binglan looked at Xu Mu'an who had passed out, and suddenly felt angry in his extremely calm heart.

"Nova, the situation is already like this, do you have any good solution?"

Nova didn't even think about it, and said directly: "Your Majesty, if there is revenge, I have nine plans here, which can kill him within 10 minutes, and if I want to kill his whole family, I also have five plans." Do it in 10 minutes."

As she said that, she took out a stack of cards and handed them to Xu Binglan. Various patterns were drawn on them, ranging from long-range headshots to close-range assassinations.

It was obvious that since Xu Mu'an first came here, she had already anticipated the outcome of this matter and started planning.

Of course, all plans basically only need three steps: sneak in stealthily, use designated methods to kill, and retreat.Even if we start now, we will definitely be able to finish within 10 minutes.

In addition to the conventional assassination methods, there are several more violent methods, such as air strikes or sending a siege tank to kill, which can be described as easy and freehand. As for the specific method of death, it depends on Xu Binglan's opinion. I like it.

Xu Binglan browsed these cards in his hand, looked at one of them, and said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, I remember that Uncle Sanhuang's manor seems to be on the outskirts of the city."

"Yes, so we can take some excessive actions. You just choose, and I will deal with it." Nova leaned against the wall, blowing bubble gum in her mouth, looking indifferent.

"That's it"

Xu Binglan took out one of these cards, threw it on the table, and showed a strange smile: "Then, it's time to remind those people, and tell them that I am not a saint."

Nova leaned out to take a look, and then laughed: "It's really a nostalgic way, it seems that this time I have to go there in person."

On the card that was thrown on the coffee table, a mushroom cloud pattern was drawn on it, shining brightly under the golden light.
