Chapter 31 Xi’s Meeting
In the gorgeous hall, tables and chairs are arranged in a circle. Some seats are already occupied by people. A middle-aged man with long curly white hair is looking at the table in front of him with his hands on his shoulders. , his eyes were half-closed, seemingly clear, but when he passed by, he could hear the other person's rhythmic snoring.
Behind his seat, a star painted white was emitting a light light. The man's curly hair jumped automatically without wind, and from time to time, it stretched out its tentacles to flip the documents on the desktop. Occasionally, he would light the table as if he was deep in thought. One guest after another slowly appeared on the stage, a sudden wind came, with an elusive whisper. The next second, a lady was already sitting on the chair, the moonlight behind her shone; there was a sound of falling like water. When he stood up, a ball of liquid fell onto the chair, outlining a vague human shape.
"I'm a little late." The member of the Goblum family arrived. The weather was hot, but he still wore a high collar and breathable fabric to cover his neck. The man first saw Representative Qiu Di who was taking a nap in his seat. He had just I went over to say hello and suddenly frowned, realizing that things were not simple.
The other person seemed to be awake, but in fact he had been asleep for a while. Looking at the man sleeping with half-open eyes, Weiss was speechless for a long time. He admired his ability in his heart. The meeting was about to start, but there were still some empty seats. Weiss looked around and saw several familiar faces: Star Pillar 1 and 3; Moon Pillar 5 and 11, plus himself , there were already four pillars present. His eyes suddenly froze, and a dragon roar sounded in his ears. However, a seat in front of him was lit up, and the moon pillar logo appeared. Weiss took a closer look. But it was not Yuezhu himself, but his messenger.
"Trea, the messenger of Moon Pillar 7, pays my respects to you all."
The man with crystal-like fine scales on his arms and neck stood up, bowed to the people present, and then sat on the seat. He smiled broadly. Gentle, but with a pair of vertical pupils that are slightly ferocious: "My lord is unable to attend the banquet, so he has given me permission to come to participate in this meeting. I will be his representative. If you need anything, please feel free to give me instructions."
"Yuezhu has already This is not the first time that his messenger has replaced him." The lady slowly opened the fan in her hand and covered the lower half of her face: "What's the matter with him that makes him miss the banquet again and again?"
The parliament has not yet . At the beginning, everyone started chatting. Even though they were all sitting here, the relationship between the pillars was actually a bit complicated. Their positions brought them together, but everyone had a very weird temper. After hearing her words , Treya was still smiling, and then he stood up slowly in front of everyone, then took out a letter, tore it open, and read it in public:
[After sleeping for three hundred years, I finally I dreamed about my destined partner and decided to pursue my love, so I will not attend any subsequent banquets. If you have any objections, you can continue to have them.
My messenger will come to replace me. If anything happens, you can go to him directly. I'm glad that I don't have to see the expression on your face now. I believe it will be very exciting.
Moon Pillar 7: Offered by Odgari. 】
Yuezhu 7 cannot come to the banquet today.
Because he is going to pursue his love...
love...
The fan in the lady's hand was clattering, and she felt that her IQ was being rubbed on the ground. The water-like phantom next to her chuckled, Qiu Di He raised his face and laughed. Weiss next to him didn't know when he woke up: "The reason made up by Mr. Yuezhu 7 is indeed very..." He paused: "It's original."
However, Treya said It was the truth. When he recalled that when he went to meet Yuezhu and saw the empty lair and the letter left by him, the expression on Treya's face was also very wonderful. He took off the glasses he put on at some point and sat down again.
"All silver dragons have such tempers." Weiss tried to smooth things over. After all, they all knew what kind of character Yuezhu 7 was. The dragons were so bad. They were always arrogant, greedy and violent. Their personalities were twisted and arbitrary, and they could do whatever they thought of. Whatever you do, whatever you want to do, you will choose to satisfy yourself first, without considering anything else.
Silver dragons can be considered good-tempered, but they are so lethargic that they will sleep for hundreds of years, and then go to find their destined partner. After finding a partner, they continue to go back to sleep, and are not interested in anything in the outside world. Moon Pillar 7 was promoted as a card because he was the only one in this generation who was suitable.
Thinking of this, Weiss leaned on the backrest, thinking that the Dragon Clan had been avoiding the storm as bystanders for several epochs, so that their traces in the tower are still very secretive. However, such a silver dragon just... From the beginning, he firmly chose to stand on Xi's side...
He was a little lost, and then he remembered: "Where is Mr. Xi?"
Suddenly, an ethereal voice came from his ears, which made everyone present stunned. For a moment, they all turned around and looked at the main seat in the center of the banquet. On a seat slightly larger than the surrounding seats, a man with white hair and a perfect face sat there, holding a hand. With his quill, he was writing without raising his head. His long, slightly curly hair flowed down his shoulders to his lower abdomen. The rings on his gloves reflected dots of extremely dangerous light. Even just sitting there, it seemed like A behemoth, towering over those around him.
Weiss held his breath. Xi seemed to be sitting there from the beginning, but none of them noticed his presence. The people in front of him were concentrating on doing their own things. Xi sat there, with the seat behind him A dazzling sun was reflected, and a pure gold scepter named Tyrant was placed beside his right foot. The terrifying pollutant just stayed there quietly, as if it was really just an ordinary decoration.
Weiss' eyes flashed from the scepter, and everyone's expressions were almost synchronized at that moment. The next second, Xi wrote the last word, put down the pen, and gently touched the table with his fingers. Knocked.
Weiss' eyes tore away from the scepter, and he took a deep breath: "Master Xi, have you been here all this time?"
"The meeting begins," Xi's voice sounded strange, not good or bad, more like A song, a melody: "You all arrived on time."
His pure white eyes turned around everyone, smiling lightly, but a sense of oppression still came from his body, his His eyes suddenly fell on Weiss and said to him: "Have you counted how many people are here?"
The others raised their faces and looked at him. There were not many expressions on their faces, but this situation had already caused Weiss' The smile faltered.
"Your brother contacted the Life Factory some time ago and promised that they would provide a new production line for the Life Factory." Xi was still smiling, looking as gentle as a god: "I'm curious how much you contributed to it. , After all, you are a member of the Goblon Council."
He knocked on the table, and the documents just spread out and flew in front of everyone. Even Weiss had an extra copy in front of her. The lady on the side used a fan. Clicking on it, the above information flowed into her mind: the riots caused by the sharp increase in the amount of pollutants in various areas, as well as the charter document about violent suppression written by Xi, and a portrait at the bottom, Trey Ya picked up the portrait and found the name circled on it: Star Pillar 12, Feishi.
"You... need us to do something?" Qiu Di raised his hair and stroked his chin thoughtfully. This document revealed too many meanings, so much so that they could even gain so much benefit from this, so that Qiu Di was a little suspicious of Xi's intentions, while Xi looked at them and whispered: "Life Factory The resulting accident caused chaos in the tower, so we went to suppress it."
He folded his hands and continued: "But unfortunately, some of the tower pillars were killed on the way to suppress it." He said. Flipping through the documents: "Well, he will die in three days. Remember to pick a good time."
Everyone was silent, Weiss flipped through the documents in his hand, and after a moment, he raised his face to look at Xi, and said first: "I just need to visit Lady Feishi in three days, and I have something to say to her. "
Yeah." Xi nodded: "I believe you are not involved in the Life Factory."
"For now." He tilted his head, the smile on his face was very pure and beautiful. Qiu Di silently put away the document, and the others did not express any opinions. When they chose to go to the banquet, everyone already knew what they should do, but if they refused, the next one would be Who will be the portrait that appears?
Weiss suddenly panicked, but Xi's straightforwardness made people feel more at ease.
"Are you going to encircle and suppress the pillars?" The lady covered her face and laughed: "Oh, it's so scary. Maybe as soon as I leave the banquet, I will be so scared that I will go to the divine residence to have an audience."
"To have an audience with the man who killed your daughter . "?" A flowing voice came: "I heard that your daughter was only seven years old when she died. I'm sorry, I just suddenly remembered this."
"Shut up,"
the lady closed her fan. Revealing a face full of scars, she covered her face again. Xi sat there and looked at her quietly before looking away. No matter how noisy a few people were, he would not interfere. The man just sat there and waited until After they finished arguing, Xicai continued: "I said I will fulfill your wish. After you kill the pillar, you can deal with the origin you get."
Qiu Di raised his face and looked at him with half-narrowed eyes. But
he looked very sharp: "Even if it's a moon pillar?"
Wu Di looked at Weiss, and the man spread his hands helplessly: "You are also going to chat with Feishi in three days?"
"We will be very busy in three days." The lady smiled: "Don't worry, I won't interfere. Yours."
"I hope everyone can live in harmony," Xi said lightly. His eyes were on Qiu Di, which made the middle-aged man have to give up some of his thoughts. He noticed that there was still something on Xi's desk. A portrait, and he couldn't help but start to think about which pillar it would be. Qiu Di even noticed that it seemed to be a figure with black hair. Strange, is there anyone with black hair among the pillars?
"What are you looking at?"
A strong sense of oppression came. Qiu Di's hair stood on end due to stress, like straight spaghetti. Xi suddenly raised his face and looked at him. Qiu Di had never seen it before. He has never experienced this feeling. He once secretly compared the gap between the pillars and speculated on Xi's strength. However, now he realized how ridiculous his previous thoughts were. Xi gave him a more terrifying feeling than when he went to the Divine Residence. Terrifying It felt like he could crush him to death right now, and he didn't even have room to fight back.
Xi stretched out his hand and slowly put away the painting, as if putting away a taboo that only he could see. He finally moved his eyes away from Qiu Di. The middle-aged man's hair suddenly straightened up and then shriveled completely, like a head of rotten wool carrying a wilted head.
"I...sorry." Qiu Di coughed softly, Xi's eyes barely blinked, and there was always a faint smile on his face: "Okay, I hope that when I see you next time, you have suppressed the surrounding areas. The riot."
He raised his hand, and the wine bottle beside him flew up, pouring a glass of wine for everyone: "Enjoy the wine, this is a fine wine left over from the last era."
After he finished speaking, the whole crowd was stunned. The person has disappeared from everyone's sight. Only a few pillars were left, looking at each other in confusion. Garifin raised her fingers and dipped her hands directly into the wine glass. Her body was slowly infected by the color of the wine, and her eyes also curled up: Good wine...
"It's a pity that Fei Shi will not be here again ." I can’t drink anymore, I’m really happy just thinking about it.” She chuckled and flowed away like water.
"Wes." Qiu Di suddenly called out to stop Wes who was about to leave: "Is your brother really united with the Life Factory?"
"His character has been like this since he was a child," Wes said, "I sometimes also I don't know what he is thinking."
Qiu Di looked him up and down. After a moment, the lady's figure disappeared, and he was about to leave. The man stood up, but at the end he said: "You should make this decision. I must have been thinking about it for a long time."
Weiss didn't answer. He sighed. When he passed by the mirror, he looked at his own figure and seemed to see a face that was similar but different from his. The man scratched his head and suddenly realized something very serious:
he seemed to... didn't know Fei Shi at all?
Shu Mo walked slowly in the laboratory, followed by Kevin who was chasing him closely.
"Why, why do you want to reject me, Shu Mo!" Kevin walked around him, his green hair floating up. Shu Mo glanced at him and thought it might be better if you dye your hair now. There's enough time.
Isn't it obvious whether you should trust a pollutant of unknown origin or trust your new colleagues?
Shu Mo looked at Kevin who seemed to be broken, and slowly opened his mouth and smiled: "I'm sorry."
The man said with regret: "I can't go to the banquet because my old injury has recurred and I need to recuperate. "
The man who had already thought of ten thousand reasons to persuade Shu Mo fell silent after hearing this.
He looked at Shu Mo's right leg, then at the man's pale face, and fell silent.
