"Master Priest, isn't this too hasty? I suggest that we refine this plan a little more. Three days is too short."
"This kind of thing cannot be delayed. If it is delayed any further, those guys who are always causing trouble but not being able to accomplish anything will be discouraged."
"Besides, my ability can only modify memories, not reality. If we delay for too long, some smart people will come to their senses."
"I understand, Master Priest." The jackal nodded respectfully and walked in front to lead the way to the next negotiation location.
As Anna walked, she asked Olivia, who had been silent from the beginning, "Have you learned anything from watching me modify the memories of so many people? You can try it on the next person."
She is teaching this girl who has similar abilities to her. If she teaches her, there will be two Diwait in her camp.
After hearing this, Olivia panicked and waved her hands repeatedly.
"No, Master Priest. Although my control over my abilities is still improving, it is far from your level. If I force myself to try, I'm afraid I'll burn his head off."
Seeing the other person's lack of confidence, Anna got angry. "Why are you panicking? I'm watching you. Just go ahead and try. You won't die."
"Yeah." Olivia lowered her head.
Seeing that she was still silently bearing the pressure as usual, Anna turned her attention to Roy and Li Lu.
"The final battle is about to begin. That's when you'll be needed to lead the way. You should all be familiar with the various IMF stations."
The IMF's shelters and laboratories are spread all over the world, and for the sake of safety and confidentiality, most of them are built in inaccessible places. Outsiders have no idea how many of these facilities there are.
Roy, who was holding his sleeping son, had a serious expression. "Li Lu and I are shadow agents in the IMF with an E- clearance. We don't know much about the specific locations of other IMF facilities."
"It's okay, just tell me what you know. Don't be too nervous. I know you're not lying." Anna walked over and gently lifted Tuba's chin with her finger.
"Hate it, stop it." Tuba muttered, burying his face deeper into his father's arms.
Anna cast her eyes towards Li Lu who was holding the child. "Don't look so bitter. I am still good to my subordinates. As long as the IMF is besieged by everyone, they probably won't have time to care about us in the future. When the time comes, you can go wherever you want. I won't stop you."
Li Lu looked at the child in her arms and said with a trembling voice: "Is it really necessary to go this far? Many people will die, and even the entire human society will be dragged into the quagmire of war."
"Why, do you suddenly feel guilty now? It's not too late for you two to try to stop me now."
Anna, with a smile on her lips, stretched out her right hand, lifted up two strands of Li Lu's hair, and gently tucked them behind her ears.
Li Lu tilted her head slightly to avoid Anna's snow-white slender fingers. This was all superficial. She knew what kind of monster was living inside Anna's human body.
She hugged her son tighter in her arms. "We will leave, completely away from the disputes, live in a place where no one can find us, and watch Tuba grow up quietly."
She has given up everything for her child, and now her child is the only thing she cares about.
"Retire? That's not bad either. A simple life is best."
Li Lu thought for a moment with a serious expression, then spoke again: "Is it true that you have seen my future child? How is he? Is the future Tuba doing well?"
Although the other party's words sounded like nonsense, but when she saw Anna really turned into a tentacle monster, she began to believe it.
Anna took out another white-filtered lady's cigarette and smoked it. "Not bad, your child has a lot of experience, you don't have to worry about him, he will definitely survive."
"You look very happy today?" A poker with these words written on it flew in front of Anna.
"Of course I'm happy. It feels really good to no longer be at the mercy of others." Anna took a deep breath with satisfaction. She hated the feeling of hiding, she really hated it.
"Are there many beings like us in Earthsea? Haven't they formed any society among them?"
Anna hooked the mask's shoulder and said cheerfully, "Don't worry, I'll introduce it to you slowly when we get down. That place is our real home. I'll protect you."
The mask turned around and looked at Anna's profile. "You are my companion. Wherever you go, I will go."
Anna looked at it and smiled softly, a rare smile that contained no other meaning.
If Anna has any friends on the entire earth, then the loyal Mask is only half of them.
It seems that Anna is surrounded by many people, but they all have their own calculations, only the masks are different.
"I've said before that I will repay you tenfold for all your efforts. I remember everything you've done." Anna patted the mask's shoulder lightly and then let go.
"In fact, after everything is over, I do need your help with something." This was the first time the mask made a condition.
"Okay, let me know when the time comes." Anna agreed immediately.
At this moment, Roy opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
Suddenly, an extremely panicked voice came from the headset he was wearing. It was the secret sentry on guard outside.
"God Futan, what on earth is that?! Be careful!! Something is passing by!!"
The moment Anna heard the sound, her body vibrated rapidly and she crawled under the floor.
Before she could finish evading, the unknown attack had already arrived. "Boom!!" A violent explosion sounded instantly and she was thrown heavily away.
Anna, who was lifted into the air, soon saw the enemy. They were a group of people wearing pure white streamlined armor, and some special blue projection equipment covered their faces.
When these people descended from the sky wrapped in white light, they looked like angels.
Soon Anna turned back into human form in a large area of ruins, and found herself surrounded. These guys were coming for her.
Under Anna's control, the green flames floated in the air like mines. She looked at these people vigilantly.
"Who are you? Shouldn't you explain your intentions before taking action?"
Anna was pretty sure she had never met these people before.
Faced with Anna's question, the other party didn't seem to want to explain anything and rushed over at an extremely fast speed.
