In the Commander's Room of Faith — Ever since the last battle meeting inexplicably turned into a field trip, I was determined not to hold any kind of meeting anywhere other than the Commander's Room.
Not only did Araya return with a Ghost Maid, he also brought terrible news.
"I'm sorry, Master …" Anveena stood in front of me timidly, her head almost drooping to the ground. The light around her body flickered as though there was an unstable voltage. "I didn't look after the house …"
"It's not your fault …" I could only helplessly pat the head of this dispirited Ghost who had failed in her plan to become the world's number one maid. Then, I looked at the sky speechlessly. "You can't imagine the leaps and bounds of the human mind …"
Who would have thought that Ding Ling would actually barge in like that, and coincidentally bump into the little Ghost who was immersed in the joy of cleaning and didn't pay attention to her surroundings? Even worse, Araya just had to arrive at such a coincidental time …
"Birds of a feather flock together …" I looked meaningfully in Lin Xue's direction. However, for the first time ever, she didn't follow up with a Rising Dragon Break followed by a Strengthened Double Kick. Instead, she still maintained a preoccupied look and didn't react to my provocation at all.
"Alright, alright." Seeing her like this, I lost interest in teasing her and could only comfort her. "Isn't it just letting your little brother and close friend know your secret? When Shallow Shallow and Big Sister were dragged into this, I was much more open-minded than you … "
"Go away, I'm so annoyed!" Lin Xue raised her head and rolled her eyes at me. "I still have to think about how to face the two of them when I return! Such a big secret … "
I could only nod in understanding. Even though I said it casually, I had been conflicted for a long time when Shallow Shallow and Big Sister were suddenly dragged into this …
As for whether Lin Feng and Ding Ling would be able to keep this a secret after knowing about it, I was willing to believe them. Firstly, this secret was related to the people closest to them, so they wouldn't be stupid enough to reveal it. Secondly, I also believed in their characters. Furthermore, as members of the Ability Group, if they didn't even have the ability to keep this secret … that would be too laughable.
More importantly, they were Lin Xue's family and friends after all, and I had a good relationship with them. Special people had special treatment. If two street thugs found out about this, I wouldn't mind throwing them into the Shadow City's biochemical factory.
As for whether or not I should use this chance to pull Lin Feng and Ding Ling into our circle, yep, this wasn't a bad idea. Two Innate Espers were already rare talents, and with the addition of the Schilling Nest's crystal radiation, they would definitely become two powerful God-tier individuals. However, this was something to be considered in the future, at least for the time being, I didn't have such plans. Even though I believed in their characters, and with their relationship with Lin Xue, I treated them as my own people, but …
Alright, I'll be frank, it's too troublesome … Lin Xue, who dismantled and dismantled my base every day and insisted on bickering with me for fun, had already left a serious psychological shadow in me. I didn't dare to imagine how arrogant Lin Xue would become if she suddenly gained two more helpers.
That was why, using this chance to drag Lin Feng and Ding Ling down was a good idea, but that would have to be considered in the future. For the time being, I would let the two of them continue to be onlookers on Earth who knew the truth.
Lin Xue, who was looking down in distress, suddenly felt a chill all over her body. She looked around in surprise and couldn't help wondering, "What's going on?" Why do I suddenly feel that some unscrupulous fellow is plotting against me?
Well, plotting against Lin Feng and Ding Ling should be the same as plotting against Lin Xue … What a powerful prophet …
We had already told Jaina about the Super Allied Forces (after Lin Banxian's naming, the Allied Forces were now called the Salvation Army). Jaina's reaction to our grand plan to unite all the races in the world was beyond our expectations. Originally, I thought that even if Jaina could accept it, she would definitely be skeptical. After all, the World of Azeroth had its own unique characteristics. There were many races in this world and they had deep grudges against each other. It was to the extent that even in the face of the end of the world, they would not rest until one of them was dead. Even though this situation seemed stupid, it wasn't incomprehensible. The hatred that had accumulated for thousands of years was quite shocking. Even the shadow of the Burning Legion would find it difficult to make these hateful races put down their prejudices and peacefully unite together …
However, Jaina expressed 100% trust in our somewhat fantastical plan. Of course, she also said that if this plan was brought up by anyone else, she would definitely treat it as a joke. To her, it was already a miracle that the humans and the Beastmen could form an alliance. Now, even the Nagas, Murlocs, and even the Bear Monsters had become the target of this alliance. How could this not be a joke? However, since this plan was brought up by the 'Salvation Army', the meaning was completely different. This was a message from God to the mortal world. From Jaina's point of view, this was an easy plan without any doubt …
To put it in a more appropriate way, it would be: When God raises his arm, the mortals rise up in revolt …
Even though this metaphor was filled with thick Lin Xue's style of awkwardness, it had to be said that it was simply too appropriate …
However, even though Jaina was full of confidence in our plan, as a native of Azeroth, some inherent beliefs still affected her. For example, the rejection of the undead.
Since the alliance included the Forgotten Ones, it was necessary for us to introduce Anveena and Jaina to each other. Thus, Alaya and I brought the little specter who was still unwilling to meet outsiders to the Mage Tower. When Jaina saw the crow perched on my shoulder transform into a specter girl in a distorted white light, the shock and vigilance that flashed across her face didn't escape our eyes.
Compared to the instinctive vigilance of Jaina, someone's reaction was even more extreme. Old Mage Viktor, who was standing beside Jaina, almost subconsciously launched an attack. He raised his hand and an ice arrow that emitted an intense chill flew towards Anveena's direction. On the other side, the chief Holy Knight of the island, Anthony, instantly unsheathed his sword and charged towards the little specter who was still in a daze with the power of Holy Light.
As the Salvation Army's plan to ally with more or less had some sensitivities, we had only mentioned it to Jaina. That was why the two of them didn't know that the undead could also become allies. As a result, the moment Anveena appeared before them, such a disharmonious situation occurred.
At this moment, I finally understood the extent of the opposition between the living and the undead in the ravaged World of Azeroth.
However, I didn't make a move. It wasn't because I couldn't react in time, but because I knew that Anveena wouldn't be injured.
Under Jaina's panicked shouts, two attacks arrived one after the other!
The powerful ice arrow released by the archmage had the advantage of speed and struck Anveena's body first. The little specter obviously didn't have much combat experience and only reacted after being struck. However, elemental magic didn't have much of an effect on the little specter. The Angel Feather itself possessed a perverted resistance to various types of energy. In addition to the addition of the power of Holy Light, an ice arrow that was made entirely out of magic was no stronger than a toy water gun when it struck the little specter's body. Thus, without a doubt, this ice arrow transformed into elemental energy that scattered in all directions. Then, the uncle knight's attack finally arrived. Of course, it was at this moment that the slow-witted specter maid finally reacted.
With a shocked expression, the uncle knight smashed into a nearly solid shield of Holy Light. Then, his mouth twisted and his eyes slanted as he slid to the ground, forming a rather comical "big" character.
"Holy … Holy Light?!"
The old mage Viktor stuttered.
Anveena finally reacted. With a whoosh, she burrowed under Alaya's large wings. Then, without hesitation, she stretched out her arms and pulled the wings that were almost completely condensed from Divine Energy over and wrapped herself tightly around them.
The uncle knight, who was just about to get up, immediately let out a "Ga!" and lay back down again.
