(I'm having a fever, we'll see how it goes tomorrow ~)
Tessa, on the other hand, seemed to have suffered some kind of blow in her heart. She immediately put on a serious face and looked at Xiao Ran. She even mentioned that Mithril wanted to take custody of Chidori.
"I'm afraid that's not possible." Xiao Ran didn't reject her with a strong tone. Instead, he said gently, "There's no need to say how important Chidori is. Even if she's under Mithril's protection, no one can hurt her. However, I will never allow Chidori to be out of my control. This is definitely not negotiable."
The conversation between the two of them completely ignored the opinion of the person involved, Qianniao. Or rather, in such a situation, it was impossible for Qianniao, the person involved, to have the chance to express her opinion, and no one would pay attention to her opinion.
Xiao Ran's tone was gentle, but the meaning revealed was unquestionable. There was no room for negotiation. Chidori could only be under the control of Burning Legion. There was no other possibility or choice.
Tessa heard Xiao Ran's words and gave up on arguing. To put it simply, Mithril didn't have the right to compete with Burning Legion. If Xiao Ran didn't say anything, Tessa really couldn't do anything. Although as a friend, Tessa really hoped that Chidori could be under Mithril's protection. At least that way, Chidori would be happier.
After being rejected, Tessa didn't continue to argue about this issue. She didn't want to make Xiao Ran feel bad for no reason and make Xiao Ran feel that she was being unreasonable. She decisively changed the topic.
"Can I know what you're going to do with Chidori next?"
"We can't solve Chidori's problem, so the only one who can deal with this crisis is herself. I believe Renard has already told you this, so all we can do is guide her. We'll use external methods to affect her mood and control Sophia's influence. We're not going to do anything."
"But I'm not going to let Chidori live without knowing anything. If Chidori is aware of Sophia's control over her, or is able to talk directly to her, then everything will be too late. It's best to let Chidori take the initiative to suppress Sophia. I'll also teach Chidori some things about the use of spirit power and soul power. At the same time, we also have the best way to suppress spirit power and soul power here."
"And next, in order to prevent Chidori from being unnecessarily stimulated, we'll try to bring her back to the stronghold. At the same time, we'll also bring Sosuke Sagara. For Chidori, Sosuke Sagara is the switch that can't be touched, so Sosuke Sagara must also be handed over to us for protection."
Tessa lowered her head in silence for a moment. Not long after, she raised her head again and said, "I agree to hand Sosuke Sagara over to you, but I also hope that Chidori Yao and Sosuke Sagara can receive the best care. At the same time, I hope to send Melissa and Kirrlutz to go with them."
Xiao Ran nodded in agreement. "Okay."
Tessa nodded gently. "Thank you."
Xiao Ran asked, "It seems that you still have something to do. With our relationship, there's no need to hide anything in front of me."
"Our relationship?" Tessa was stunned for a moment, then she lowered her head and grabbed her skirt tightly with both hands. Her face turned incomparably red, as if steam was about to rise from the top of her head.
"Hmm?" Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows and looked helplessly at Tessa who chose to shut up until Tessa came back to her senses.
Xiao Ran asked, "What's wrong?"
Tessa said nervously, "Those … those dimensional beasts seem to be perverted. The alliance army hopes that I can be the representative to discuss with us if they can transfer a perverted dimensional beast to us. After all, we have never captured a perverted dimensional beast. Of course, if possible, we can also give some compensation. Finally, I hope to share the information behind the dimensional passageway with you."
Xiao Ran curled his lips and smiled. "I don't think the alliance army has anything that I'm interested in. I have everything they have, and I have everything they don't have. Even if it's a deal, we have to at least come up with something that both sides are satisfied with. Besides, it's just a dimensional beast. It's not a big deal to hand it over to you. After all, if we want to capture it, we can definitely capture it as long as it appears. However, are you sure you can suppress the dimensional beast and study it?"
"Furthermore, the dimensional beast's body is filled with energy. We don't know how these dimensional beasts transmigrate. If the dimensional beast has the ability to jump and activates this ability at the same time, everything around it will probably be swept in after the dimensional passageway appears. Therefore, does the alliance army really have this ability? I'm talking about all aspects."
Tessa fell silent for a long time after hearing Xiao Ran's words. Xiao Ran did not disturb Tessa's silence. Instead, he waited for Tessa to wake up on her own.
Xiao Ran was not stingy with a captured dimensional beast. Xiao Ran's words were not bragging at all. Now, the perverted dimensional beast research in the fortress was under the joint protection of many parties to ensure the safety of the personnel. There were even Tiegaman guards to guard against any accidents.
The spatial shielding device definitely had to be turned on. Just this alone was something that the Earth's alliance army could not do. Sending a dimensional beast down was equivalent to direct murder. Although Xiao Ran ignored the entire alliance army from the bottom of his heart, he would not do such a thing to deliberately kill people.
Tessa felt very angry after being defeated by Xiao Ran once again. She pouted and turned her head away, ignoring Xiao Ran. Her cute appearance made Xiao Ran laugh.
Shaking his head, Xiao Ran said, "We are allies. At least, Mithril is our ally, and you are my friend. Don't worry. If there is any research or information, I will definitely pass a copy to Mithril. As for whether you want to share it or monopolize it, it's up to you."
Xiao Ran wanted to study dimensional beasts only for the mission. This thing itself had no value. If he really found any information, it did not matter if he handed it to Tessa. It could also let Tessa spread the information, allowing the entire Earth to have a better understanding of dimensional beasts. This way, there would be fewer sacrifices and less destruction in battle. This was beneficial to Xiao Ran's mission and would be more beneficial for the future.
Of course, if he really found something special, it was naturally impossible to hand over the information. Only a fool would do so.
However, Xiao Ran's words did calm Tessa down. The dissatisfaction in her heart instantly disappeared, and her angry look turned into an embarrassed look. This talent of changing faces was really special.
After that, Xiao Ran and Tessa did not talk about dimensional beasts anymore. The scope of their conversation was nonsense. Although Tessa sometimes did not know what she was talking about, she felt very happy watching Xiao Ran and Xiao Ran chat. Especially Xiao Ran's eyes that were not hidden in front of her. They were so deep that it was fascinating.
When it was almost noon, Renard appeared in Xiao Ran's villa again. After glancing at Xiao Ran, he pulled Tessa away, rudely interrupting the hot conversation between the two. However, when Tessa left, Xiao Ran heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He really could not find any more topics to talk about, and everything about Prometheus was even more impossible to reveal now. Therefore, he only changed his energy slightly and casually fabricated a story of two years.
Tessa listened to Xiao Ran's fake story with great interest. She lamented that Xiao Ran had experienced so much in the universe in two years. Although she still felt a little regretful that she could not learn more from Xiao Ran, Tessa felt satisfied when Renard pulled her away. Before leaving, she even waved at Xiao Ran with a smile.
Until evening, Tessa did not appear in front of Xiao Ran again. Instead, it was Sherry Dew who brought the Valkyrie, Chidori Yao, and two or three of her female friends back to the villa. After playing for a day, Chidori and her friends could be said to have no energy left. Sherry Dew, of course, had no problem at all. The Valkyrie who had undergone long-term training was also fine.
Sherry Dew did not say why she brought Chidori back, but Xiao Ran tacitly understood Sherry Dew's purpose. From the moment Chidori Yao entered the villa and sat down, Xiao Ran had been observing Chidori Yao's situation.
To Xiao Ran's surprise, he found that the special aura between Chidori Yao's eyebrows had dissipated a lot. It was almost negligible. Her mental exhaustion seemed to have been relieved a lot, as if a stone had been removed from her back. She became less lifeless and more energetic. All kinds of signs indicated that Chidori Yao's situation was much better than the day before. The fatigue on her face was really caused by the crazy exercise for too long.
After Xiao Ran looked at Chidori, he looked at Sherry Dew. Sherry Dew and Xiao Ran blinked their eyes and revealed what they wanted to say. "Yes, this happened because of us."
It was already known that a singer's singing could affect the mind and even the soul. However, he didn't know that the effect of her singing was so good for Chidori. Xiao Ran solved a lot of problems in an instant. Xiao Ran also knew what to do next.
Xiao Ran stood up and left to prepare dinner for the people who had been playing for almost the whole day. He didn't disturb them until Chidori and her friends were about to leave. Xiao Ran stood up and said, "Chidori, wait a moment. I have something to tell you."
Chidori was stunned for a moment. She didn't know why Xiao Ran asked her to stay, but she still trusted Xiao Ran. She nodded and asked her friends to leave first. Then, she returned to the living room and sat down. However, she was faced with a strange scene of a group of people surrounding her.
"This … What's going on?" Chidori took a deep breath and looked at the crowd seriously. Suddenly, her eyes widened. "Am I possessed by a spirit?! No wonder I've been feeling uncomfortable all this time. I don't know who has been nagging in my ear, but I can't hit him. He's been pressing on me all this time. After going out to sea today, I suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. "
"It's because of your singing, right? Sherry Dew. I remember now. When you sing, I feel very comfortable. I don't want to think about anything. I feel like my soul has been cleansed. Miss Sherry Dew, are you an exorcist who uses singing to exorcise ghosts?"
"What are you thinking about?" Sherry Dew looked at Chidori reproachfully and said, "There are no ghosts in this world."
"You can't say that." Xiao Ran chuckled and said deliberately, "If you appear in a form that ordinary people can't understand, it's no different from a ghost to them. For example, a pure spiritual body or a spiritual body. Ordinary people can't see it, but sensitive people can be affected."
Chidori blinked her eyes and was a little confused. "What are you talking about? There's really a ghost in me?"
"No, there's not." Xiao Ran shook his head and said, "I asked you to stay because I wanted to tell you about what happened to you recently. There is indeed something pestering you, but it's not a ghost. It's a very powerful spiritual body. This spiritual body is very special to you. It has been trying to influence you and eventually control you. It wants to take over your body to achieve its ulterior motive. To put it simply, the person who wants to control you is trying to borrow your power to destroy the world."
Chidori's face was full of disbelief. "Are you kidding me?"
"You don't believe me, but Sosuke Sagara and Captain Tessa of Mithril know this very well. You're a Whisperer, a very special existence among Whisperers. You're the first Whisperer in this world, and all Whisperers appeared because of you. Through you, they unconsciously receive information from another world and become a relay device to transmit this information to other Whisperers."
"As for the spiritual body that wants to control you, it's like another world to you, but you've had an even more tragic experience. She has been trying to destroy the world and then restart it, trying to change her fate. But she doesn't know that no matter how she resets the world, she can only turn back time to the moment you were born. It can't change her tragic fate."
"I'm a little dizzy." Chidori held her head and leaned against the sofa. Her eyes were a little confused, and only Xiao Ran's words were left in her mind.
