The final negotiation with the followers of lies had been planned by Jenkins long ago. Although it seems a long time ago, it seems that this day has really come in an instant.
If it goes well, everything before the decisive battle will be arranged on this day. If it doesn't go well, Jenkins will probably use the power of the priesthood on a large scale.
When he woke up in Alexia's bedroom early in the morning, he was still thinking about what he would think about himself 24 hours later. The sleeveless hand gently touched the head of the bed to find the pocket watch, but only found the fluffy cat.
"Meow~"
The sleepy-eyed chocolate yelled impatiently, then stretched out a small paw from its head, and pushed the women's pocket watch to Jenkins. Jenkins glanced at it, and it was still early.
Perhaps Chocolate's cry was too loud, and Alexia, who was still sleeping, also woke up. She tilted her head to glance at Jenkins, then brushed her hair from the side of her face with her arm.
"You're not going to say I've crushed your hair, are you? I definitely haven't."
"I want to say, I thought you would go back last night, don't you need to prepare in advance this morning?"
The lady who just woke up has a charming sense of laziness in her words.
"There's nothing to prepare."
Thinking that it was still early, he shrunk back into the quilt a little bit, hugged Alexia and kissed her together, of course Alexia responded enthusiastically. But then the door was pushed open, and a very energetic Dolores' voice came from the door:
"Teacher, I got a message, oh, sorry..."
Jenkins heard the hasty closing of the door.
"Did she never knock?"
"This floor is the bedroom of Dolores and the other princesses. Only the maid will appear, and I usually get up and read a book at this time. I will tell her next time."
The two sat up from the bed after saying this, and saw Dolores standing in front of the closed door blushing a little.
"You also expected that she would close the door inside?"
Jenkins turned to ask again.
"No, I thought Dolores would run away blushing, and after confirming that you left, she would come back blushing and ask me something that a lady should not ask."
Dolores pretended not to hear anything, and looked down at the red carpet on the ground coyly. On the one hand, this is because of the irregularly scattered clothes on the red carpet. She has never seen the picture of women's nightdresses and men's shirts lying together; It is the state of not wearing clothes.
"Oh, Dolores, may I ask you to go out for a while?"
Seeing that Her Royal Highness was still standing there, Alexia asked in a helpless voice.
"Oh, you guys are going to... ok, I'll be in an hour..."
"No, we just want to change clothes, and you can come in five to ten minutes later. And if it's really what you imagined, you probably won't be able to come until breakfast."
Dolores quickly calculated in her mind how long the teacher said, as if she was a student who had finished her homework seriously.
Jenkins pulled up the quilt nervously, and was immediately ridiculed by Alexia as a "ridiculous man with posturing". In the end, Dolores was not allowed to leave until she had finished speaking.
Her Royal Highness brought new information about the North Kingdom. At about two o'clock in the morning, the scholars in the tower reported the new results of their research on the "Rebel Ritual". The report is very long, and in a simple summary, it is completely affirmed. The tower must have nine floors, and each of them corresponds 100% to the qualifications of a savior.
The information on the deceitful world provided by believers in lies has played a very important role. Scholars have used the deceitful world as a new way of thinking to conduct research. While obtaining the research results of "nine deceitful worlds interconnected" with Miss Magic and others, they also believe that Although the dungeons are connected to each other, there is still only one entrance and exit in the same dungeon, which cannot be changed.
That is to say, even though the nine deceptions together constitute a larger deception, each deception is at most connected to two different deceptions. And once entering the metal black tower, there is actually only one way forward, which is to break through the nine deceitful realms.
This is a bit like a challenge to climb a tower, and the affirmation of this information is actually extremely valuable to Jenkins. The Paradox does restrict the use of abilities, even the ability of the savior, but the Paradise does not restrict numbered items.
Especially the gifts, Jenkins can resonate with all the gifts, which is the biggest reliance on his confidence to fight back even if he has to face the challenge of climbing the tower.
No, it is the second largest, and the greatest reliance is that drop of divinity.
Compared with the progress of the scholars, Miss Brioniance's divination ceremony did not go so smoothly. After Jenkins quietly left the mansion where Salhi II stayed, he took advantage of the hazy night before going to the tower, but the ceremony was still going on, and Miss Audrey was still standing outside the square, just like Jenkins last night She didn't change position at all after leaving.
After a night of hard work, only a small piece of prophecy has been obtained so far:
"When the dream wakes up, when the bell rings."
Miss Audrey told Jenkins that the ceremony was not over yet, and that it had reached a critical point. Miss Brionyance will certainly not be able to attend the negotiations in a few hours, but she will be there.
She repeatedly reminded Jenkins not to be late, and repeatedly told him to carefully examine every word he wanted to say.
There is no problem at all. After resting in Alexia last night, Jenkins has carefully read every word of those documents in the astral world, knowing the bottom line and the highest demand of the church. During the negotiation, he knew all the details about his opponent and himself, and he couldn't figure out how to lose in this situation.
Since it was still early, Jenkins went home next. It was already daylight when we got home, but all the ladies in the family had already sat down at the dining table and were ready to start eating breakfast.
"Didn't you have a good time last night?"
Hathaway did not forget to tease.
Jenkins grabbed the newspaper and sniffed, but did not comment on this sentence:
"I plan to take a family portrait with the whole family after today's events are over. If there is enough time, it will be in the afternoon, and if it is too late, it will be tomorrow, which is Saturday. Just wear ordinary dresses. The church has already contacted the photographer, and we will shoot in the church .”
"Who will be in the family portrait?"
Britney asked.
"The night we went to dinner at Privet Drive, the night Jessica came to the house, all the girls there. And yes, including the chocolate, which is an important part of our family. Oh, Julia, please don't Wear a maid's attire, formal attire."
He stroked his cat, and the cat showed a satisfied expression.
"I will wear the dress-style maid outfit that I use when I accompany Her Royal Highness to a banquet."
The maid said stubbornly.
"So, Sigrid is also in the family who took the photo?"
Hathaway picked up the teacup and asked, Jenkins blinked:
"Yes."
"Knew he would."
Blaney half-complained and told Julia that they had already guessed that Jenkins would be like this.
Today's weather was not good. When returning home, Jenkins realized that the wind was a bit strong. These winds did not take away the dense fog over the city, but brought a large rain cloud.
While the family was having dinner, raindrops were already beating on the windows. Chocolat stood on the dining table with his small ears and looked at the window, as if he suddenly became interested in rain.
"It doesn't seem to be the sound of rain."
Hathaway moved her ears to remind her that as a follower of the God of Music, her sense of hearing is much better than that of Jenkins in a mortal state, even though there is a level gap between the two.
Jenkins turned his head when he heard this, and saw a small girl with wings as thin as a cicada's wing, probably smaller than a chocolate, knocking on the glass outside the window.
She has long black hair that reaches down to her waist, fair skin and delicate face, and she is wearing a light blue dress. Even with a leaf on his head, his clothes were soaked. Fortunately, the roll of paper on the back is still dry, at least for now.
Holding the stalk of the leaf with his right hand, he pushed the leaf above his head, clenched his small fist with his left hand and tried to slap on the window, opening and closing his mouth to speak, but unfortunately his voice was completely covered by the sound of rain. Seeing that Jenkins had noticed her, there was a surprised expression on his face, and he gestured with his left hand, not knowing what he wanted to express. But when he saw the cat standing up on the dining table, he immediately backed away, probably because he was frightened by the cat.
"Ha, it's the goblin in the book! (Chapter 1240)"
Jenkins has encountered many goblins so far, most of them are beautiful and full of malice, and a few of them are neutral but particularly unpleasant.
But this one is a friend of Jenkins. She was originally a soul born in the [Book of Heart], and under the guidance of Jenkins, she realized who she was, and gained freedom as a heterogeneous [Book Fairy].
It was also this goblin who gave Jenkins a hint, making Jenkins clearly aware for the first time that his ultimate enemy was the Difference Engine. At first, he thought that the goblin would follow him from now on, but the other party said that he would swear allegiance to Jenkins after everything was over.
Chocolate tilted his head and stared at the leprechaun outside the window, and Jenkins immediately understood what the cat was thinking. Although it is timid, it especially likes to bully those creatures that are smaller than it and look docile, such as rabbits and squirrels.
In other words, Jenkins believes that his cat's bullying character is very obvious.
I patted Chocolate on the head, reminding it that this is not food, so don't hold wrong thoughts. Then he got up and went to the window and pushed it open, allowing the little goblin to fly into the room with its little wings.
