Bastian’s first words had already revealed a secret that Su Mu and Su Tong did not know.
But in fact, as soon as these words fell from Bastian's mouth, Su Mu and Su Tong instantly determined that this might indeed have happened.
It's even really... the reason why Lu Xi is so embarrassed!
However, Su Mu and Su Tong had not even had time to be surprised at this, but Bastion’s next sentence followed by a crazier inducing anxiety in the depths of human nature.
The existence of the Dark Bard, although it is indeed helping Su Mu's growth at present.
However, there is no doubt that their support does not come from justice, only from their own interests.
And in accordance with the joy and sorrow in the Desolate Abyss, the so-called dark bard is obviously not a good man, but only some kind of ancient violence.
"so… "
"So, of course I am also one of the so-called'chosen ones.' Or the reason why I dared to depart from my motherland and give up my generous aristocratic life is to have the dark bard behind as a boost and thrust."
Su Mu's question has not been issued yet, but Bastiao has already given a clear answer.
"But by now, you must have felt it yourself. The so-called dark bard is just a group of monsters hidden in the shadows of the mainland. As long as these monsters do not disappear for a day, no matter how beautiful we are on the mainland. After all, they are just pawns in their hands!"
Su Mu didn't have the slightest opinion on the conclusion given by Bastiao.
After all, as far as it seems, the so-called dark bard does have great ambitions.
Even if their ultimate goal is as they themselves said, it is just to secretly control the direction of the mainland, and there is nothing more shocking.
But even so, it still couldn't change the fact that Su Mu and several people would become pawns.
Not to mention, Su Mu is still slightly angry now, and accompanied by regretful discoveries... Lu Xi's hazy feelings for himself are actually a threat from the dark bard!
From the perspective of Su Mu's feelings, this is of course even more intolerable.
…
"How can we trust you? Or, more bluntly, how can we confirm that your words and actions are not the temptations instructed by the dark bard?"
"And... Your behavior was not noticed by the dark bard?"
Su Mu's rhetorical question actually faintly expressed his own attitude.
The only thing needed is that Bastion takes the lead to prove himself.
After hearing the words, Bastiao really showed a look of determination to win, and then gently fiddled with the tea presented by Su Mu himself, and analyzed clearly:
"First of all, I am different from you who are still in the growth stage. I have reached the end of the dark bard prepared for me. Therefore, the main power of the dark bard today is actually placed in the empire and federation."
"Secondly, it is precisely because I have ascended to a high position. After the power has been held in my own hands, of course I will try to block some of the dark bard's gaze."
"Finally, I went to the Empire with the mission this time. It was an action ordered by the dark bard. Not only did they not doubt my motives, they did not even force me to appease my dissatisfaction a few days ago. People go with them."
Having said this, Bastiao took a sip of the tea, and finally concluded:
"In other words, even if they are watching me secretly, they will never know the details of my actions. And guessing that you are also the chosen ones and meet you, even the dark minstrels have nothing to say. "
"As for how you said I was going to prove that this matter was not what they instructed, but it is a question that I also can't distinguish myself. At least on this point, you have to choose not to believe these two paths!"
…
Bastian’s answer clearly convinced Su Mu and others to a large extent.
After all, things like taking off the shackles on one's neck are indeed impossible without taking any risks.
"Then your plan?"
Seeing that Su Mu finally got to the point, the smile on the corner of Bastiao's mouth became more kind. At this time, he had already gently put down the teacup in his hand, and replied without hesitation:
"We must find a very strong force, and attract all the monsters in the dark, and then we can carry out a devastating blow to them. And the place where all this is carried out also needs another place beyond the world. , Can absolutely not be disturbed by any conventional forces."
"And a place with such a powerful force and so isolated from the world, in fact, just as you think, there is only one place like this... The abyss of the brain is to clear the battlefield of the dark bard!"
When Bastion downplayed it, he gave an answer that was absolutely unexpected.
But there was a feeling called "reasonable", and it quietly filled the air.
And now Bastiao adds again:
"First, although the dark bard's desire for the world is huge, they have already firmly controlled this point and cannot constitute an affair with them. Therefore, it is the abnormality that threatens the deep abyss of the brain to truly make the dark bard. The things that travellers love."
"Second, whether it is in the eyes of the three kingdoms or the dark bard. The invitation to explore jointly issued by the three academies cannot be cracked by anyone other than the dark bard. So darkness Bards will naturally think that the team of students exploring the abyss is not their opponent, and there is no need to worry about going deep into the abyss."
"The third and most important point is that I have actually succeeded in cracking the secret letter technology. As long as we successfully reach a joint agreement, you will be supported by the exploratory team, and I will follow us in ambush. Not only can they successfully destroy most of the dark bard's forces in the abyss, they can even excuse that this is the devouring of the abyss."
"As for the remnants of the dark bards who failed to enter the abyss, it is also feasible to continue to clean up after you return to the mainland, or to directly force them to disappear completely."
…
Bastion's obviously thought about everything a long time ago, and then took the initiative to visit.
And just as Bastion expected, Su Mu and the three of them had no reason to refute any questions he had already thought about.
And the previous discussion is only a general framework.
If Su Mufang and Bastiao reach this alliance, there will inevitably be more details in the future, which will be added to this exquisite framework little by little.
As long as the dark bards were really as Bastion said, they were successfully lured into the abyss of the brain.
Then all the forces hidden in the mainland by the dark bard will be completely isolated from the deeper ones. At that time... everything will really become what Bastian said.
"The last two questions."
After listening to Bastiao’s statement, Su Mu obviously could no longer speak more about the plan. Instead, he asked two other things separately:
"Who is the'chosen' of the empire, why didn't you invite him to participate in your plan? And what purpose did the dark bard let you go to the empire?"
These two questions from Su Mu's mouth obviously really asked the key.
And these two issues themselves are exactly what Su Mu really needs to understand right now.
After hearing the words, Bastiao's eyes turned to Su Mu's eyes have become particularly interesting. It seemed that he was impressed by Su Mu's dexterity, but also embarrassed how to state it.
Fortunately, after a moment of struggle, Bastion seemed to have chosen to tell the truth after all:
"As for the empire's'chosen one', I think Yang Zimu is 80% possible, and Qin Wudi is also 20% possible, but as for who it is, I can't confirm it, so I won't get in touch easily!"
"On the federation side, although I am not quite sure about the identity of the thirteen seats, I was only carrying out information fraud before. However, regarding you, Su Mu, who is so famous in the mainland, I can be 100% sure that you are'Heaven'. The elect'."
"As for the dark bard's reason for letting me come to the empire, it is nothing more than to drag the controversy into a more chaotic situation, so that their candidates can get more resources in the empire."
"Even in my opinion, the reason Su Mu and your fiancee were forced to return is not necessarily... there will be no dark bard's figure and means!" ()
