A few days later, in Zion, in a secret room in the Sky City.
Most people already knew about the current situation in the Red Moon Temple, and the whole society was talking about it for a while.
All topics basically revolve around the Red Moon Temple and the Black Tide.
The black tide has not ended.
But the black tide only appeared in the Red Moon Temple.
Will other city-states relax their defenses against the next Black Tide
Of course not. Not only next time, but also in the next few years or even decades, Zion will probably not give up the Black Tide armed defense.
The world is not that beautiful. If we let down our defenses, a black tide would be a calamity.
The other two city-states had similar ideas.
So in fact, there was almost no change in the operation of the other three city-states, only some changes occurred in the Red Moon Temple.
"Relax the immigration policy? Open up the first-level forbidden arts? Popularize the teaching of sorcerers?"
Ai Li flipped through the small notebook that Li Wen brought over, looking surprised.
"What is the Red Moon Temple going to do?"
Also in the room were Li Wen and Xu Le. Their meeting was not as exciting as last time. They were both calmer. Li Wen spoke first:
"This time, the black tide caused obvious damage to the Red Moon Temple. The Red Moon Temple must have felt the pressure, so it relaxed its policies."
Then, both of them turned their eyes to Xu Le.
Xu Le did not keep the secret. He had the channels on Chi Xiao's side, so he knew the current situation of the Red Moon Temple best.
“Although Uncle Li’s words are a bit vague, generally speaking, there is no problem.
The reason why the Red Moon Temple opened up the immigration policy is very simple, that is, the concern about the future military population.
This time the black tide was extraordinary and everyone could feel it, especially the Red Moon Temple, which was hit the hardest.
In addition to their powerful strength and the support of Red Moon, they are likely to know a lot of information that we cannot know.
For example, the threat from the Son of Gu Yinduo, or the next Black Tide.
It is precisely because of these reasons that the Red Moon Temple finally chose to open."
After hearing Xu Le's detailed explanation, Ai Li nodded to show that he understood.
"You asked the minister to get this information. Is it related to our next action?"
"Yes, next, I need Uncle Li's help."
"Tell me, what's the favor?"
Although Li Wen knew that he would most likely agree to Xu Le's request, he still had to ask for safety reasons.
This guy Xu Le is doing more and more outrageous things.
"In fact, Uncle Li has already guessed that I want to immigrate to the Red Moon Temple as a resident of Zion."
"Understood."
Li Wen was brief and to the point, and agreed to Xu Le's request calmly.
Helping Xu Le immigrate is not a big deal for him given his ability. The key issue is what identity Xu Le should use for immigration.
"As for your identity, what identity do you plan to use to infiltrate?"
Li Wen knew very well that although Xu Le's action was an open and aboveboard immigration, in fact, it was still an infiltration.
The barrier technology of the Red Moon Temple is too powerful. The only people who are truly unaffected by the barrier are those who immigrate there.
This has always been the policy of the Red Moon Temple. They absorb high-level forces from other cities to strengthen themselves.
If it is a normal day, it will take 1 year for inspection after immigration, and only a temporary ID card will be given. Only after meeting the inspection requirements after 1 year will the status of a resident of the Red Moon Temple be granted.
Although the Red Moon Temple claims that they are not afraid of spies, because they are the strongest, even if spies come, they will be assimilated.
But a one-year probation period is still necessary.
One year of exposure and exposure is enough to change a person's mind.
This is a very unfavorable policy, but it just so happens that because of this black tide, the Red Moon Temple completely relaxed its immigration requirements.
They all knew very well that if the next black tide attacked only the Red Moon Temple, people from other cities would most likely never come again.
Whether or not a black tide is coming is very important. At least for most people, it is a choice that can be made with their feet.
There is a black tide, which is the remnant of the old era.
Without the Kuroshio, there is hope for a new world.
People are so simple and unpretentious.
Therefore, the relaxed immigration policy also gave Xu Le the perfect space for transfer.
"When do you plan to leave?" Li Wen asked.
"Tomorrow." Xu Le answered truthfully.
"Are you in such a hurry?"
"Yes, many things have not become simpler as my strength grows, but have become more and more complicated."
"Those who are capable should work harder?"
“No, it’s still not strong enough. Although you will have more choices in the process of becoming stronger, these choices will eventually converge and become no different from when you were weak.
It needs to be stronger.”
"I understand. Have a good rest. You should be able to take the airship to the Red Moon Temple by this time tomorrow."
"Thank you, Uncle Li. You've worked hard."
"Get lost."
"Uncle Li is not sensible anymore."
Li Wen glanced at him and Ai Li, and finally just sighed... Alas.
After spending a wonderful night together, Ai Li asked:
"You're alone, be careful."
"Of course. The environment of the Red Moon Temple is special. We should be more careful."
…
Reliable Li Wen is still reliable.
After spending a warm night with Ai Li, around morning time, Xu Le had already boarded the airship bound for the Red Moon Temple.
Standing on the deck of the airship, Xu Le was flipping through a booklet in his hand.
Xu Le, graduated from Zion University of Science and Technology, 28 years old, a die-hard bootlicker, licked but couldn't get what he wanted, got angry and turned to immigrate...
Looking at this introduction, Xu Le's mouth twitched.
"If you want to lick a dog, then lick it. Why do you have to add the word 'die'..."
In addition to a brief introduction to his identity, there is also a photo on it, which looks about 70-80% similar to Xu Le.
However, the photo shows him with a mustache, which makes him look a lot older and a little funny.
Xu Le touched his lips...
Well, there is a mustache too, which I put on this morning.
"It's a bit unrefined, but for the sake of achieving the goal, I'll keep it this way."
Tightening his collar and standing firm amid the vibration of the airship docking, Xu Le followed the crowd towards the security check of the Red Moon Temple.
Unlike the security checks in other cities, the security checks in the Red Moon Temple are conducted by warlocks.
The speed is very fast, in fact, it is just a glance by some warlocks with special abilities.
The female sorceress in charge of security quickly scanned everyone. When she scanned Xu Le, she couldn't help but let out a soft "ah".
Other security personnel immediately came over and asked:
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this person?"
"No problem, it's just that this person's lust is very strong, pink... hehehe."
"… "
The banter between warlocks is sometimes so boring.
Xu Le walked out of the security room with excitement on his face, but unfortunately his excitement was just fake.
He knew someone was scanning him, but he didn't care much. He had done his best to disguise himself.
If he was discovered again under such circumstances, he would really be helpless.
"Okay, Mr. Xu Le, go to the neighborhood committee near where you are staying within a week to apply for an accommodation certificate. Don't forget."
"OK, thanks."
"May the red moon protect you."
Seeing the Red Moon Warlock saluting him, Xu Le quickly returned the salute:
"May the red moon fool you."
…
After walking out of the airship platform, Xu Le went straight into the depths of the city.
The Red Moon Temple, this legendary place.
Apart from the actual temple area, there are no tall buildings in the outer city areas.
The architectural style here is a bit like a mix of ancient China, ancient Greece, and Gothic styles. They all have a sense of age, but the materials look very new.
I don't know where they learned this architectural style.
In addition to the unique style, various sorcerer's bookstores can be seen everywhere here, most of which are private book exchanges, collections, or rubbings for sale.
There are also various materials, alchemy, and puppeteer's stuff.
In short, the rumors from the outside world are not wrong at all. This is indeed a city exclusive to warlocks, and it can even be said to be a transition city for warlocks.
Such a place is the ocean that breeds warlocks.
"What an amazing place..." Xu Le couldn't help but sigh.
When Xu Le was sighing, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"I didn't expect you to sneak into the Red Moon Temple in this way. You are really direct."
The person who spoke was Chi Xiao. Although her injuries had not fully healed, they no longer affected her normal life and actions.
Xu Le was so upset that he didn't even notice Chi Xiao approaching. He really shouldn't have done that.
"This is a relatively conventional method. In the past, other cities sent spies to the Red Moon Temple and they probably used this method as well."
"In the past, it was like throwing meat buns at a dog. Basically, there is no going back."
What Chi Xiao said about not being able to go back actually has two meanings.
The people who were sent here, after feeling the power and atmosphere of the Red Moon Temple, joined the Red Moon Temple, and naturally there was no way they could go back.
The second is not joining, then... there is no going back.
But Xu Le is not too worried about these problems now:
"You didn't join either?"
"Me? Do you think I'm the same as those people?"
"I'm different, too."
"That's true."
Chi Xiao nodded. In a sense, Xu Le had now become a more special person than her.
The growth in strength is also extremely amazing.
This exaggerated speed of strength growth was so incredible that even Chi Xiao himself found it unbelievable.
If I can really continue to grow like this, it will not be impossible to catch up with her or even surpass her.
"The Red Moon Temple has an open policy at the moment. In order to gain more manpower, they will not be too strict with outsiders now."
Hearing Chi Xiao's words, Xu Le immediately asked:
"Logically speaking, the number of warlocks who died in the Red Moon Temple this time is less than 100. Although it is a lot, for the Red Moon Temple itself... it should be okay, right
Why are you in such a hurry to recruit people? Do you have any further news?"
"There is no new news. The main hall is now completely closed, and the several sub-hall areas are also thinking about their own things. There is almost no real information about the Black Tide incident.
But I have some speculations on my part.”
"Tell me about it."
“The Red Moon Temple already has the support of the Red Moon, and there are many top-level sorcerers who are good at divination in the camp.
So they may have predicted something, such as the next Kuroshio tide, and so on, which is why they have such a relaxed recruitment policy. "
Xu Le nodded again, Chi Xiao's inference made sense.
However, his goal is to balance the war between Hongyue and Gu Yinduo. He hopes that Hongyue will not die too quickly.
If Red Moon dies too quickly and the Red Moon Temple is destroyed, humanity will inevitably fall into catastrophe.
Xu Le’s idea is that if a being could be born among humans who could compete with a single Son of Gu Yinduo.
That way you'll have a certain degree of self-protection.
Only by letting the sons of Gu Yinduo fall into chaos can humans have a chance to survive in the narrow gap.
so…
What you need to do after arriving at the Red Moon Temple is to smooth things over.
The Sons of Gu Yinduo seem to be a little too powerful now. If possible, try to disrupt their action strategy.
Just deal with it like we did with the puppet last time.
“Before taking action, I need to find a reasonable place to stay to avoid arousing suspicion from the city’s defense.
Then we'll think about a plan of action. Do you have any suggestions for my accommodation?"
"Just live in my house." Chi Xiao said calmly.
"This... isn't it a bit embarrassing?" Xu Le was a little shy.
Chi Xiao glanced at him:
"Are you still embarrassed? Don't you know everything about your territory?"
"Well, actually I'm nearsighted, and I can't see many things clearly from a distance."
"Why do you have to explain so much? Are you going or not?"
"Won't it arouse suspicion from the people of the Red Moon Temple?" In fact, this is what Xu Le is confused about.
"No, ever since the last time the Night Fury came, all the nails on my side have disappeared. I don't know what happened."
"I see."
…
With a direction in mind, Xu Le decided to follow Chi Xiao to her house to make some arrangements, which would also be a good opportunity to arrange a room for Ding Ke.
Now Ding Ke is kept by Xu Le in the world of the Ice Soul-Eating Tree.
But it doesn't like that place very much.
Compared to that kind of place, Ding Ke prefers a soft bed, a blanket, and a variety of salty and sweet foods.
It's not a normal cat.
Ding bell! ~
After walking along with Chi Xiao for a while, Xu Le suddenly stopped.
Chi Xiao was about to ask Xu Le what was going on when her expression suddenly became serious.
"Did you hear that, too? The bell?"
Xu Le not only heard the sound of the bell, he also felt the other party's presence...
Night Fury!
Brother, brother, why haven't you left yet
Do you regard the Red Moon Temple as a tourist attraction
Chi Xiao's expression was a little nervous, her steps were slightly apart, and she looked like she was in a fighting stance.
But she soon gave up, as if she felt that it was futile for her to take a fighting stance.
After all... this is not a projection.
At the end of the road, the little girl in white led her black sheep towards Xu Le and Chi Xiao, and stopped not far away from them.
Pointing at Xu Le:
"Xu Le, come, I'll treat you to a meal."
"Uh, okay."
