"I'll come and play with you next time~" Vicky was about to leave Grande, and her farewell was to Annabelle. But she is a well-educated child~ and did not completely ignore Grande’s owner Zach, “I have a part-time job teaching Republican language in the South District, so I came to visit Grande in advance, and now it’s time for me to go to my students. "
"Then I wish you good luck with your teaching."
"Thanks."
After sending Vicki off, Zach returned to the recreation room and brought Benjamin's words to the Siren. Then, he made it clear that he didn't want to talk to Annabel anymore, so he went back to the office and wanted to call West ('Jian').
We need to ask about that inexplicable 'possession', because from what Sam said, it seems that there is one more kind of alien composition in Barton.
Just sat down in the office.
"Meow~"
Zach turned around, grabbed the white cat on the window sill and threw it downstairs, "Meow!!" and closed the window.
Start dialing.
"I don't remember you hating cats~" Annabelle stood at the door of the office.
"It's not a cat," Zach accidentally answered Annabelle. Tsk, that white cat already has the ability to disrupt Zach’s mood~~
"Oh~" Annabel didn't know whether she was happy that Zach finally responded to her, or she was really curious, "Then what is it?"
Zach held the receiver and pursed his lips, as if he would not continue to make mistakes.
Annabell was not discouraged, she walked behind Zach, opened the window that was closed by Zach without permission, and stretched her head to look down.
Annabel didn't see the white cat and raised her eyebrows, "It seems like it's really not an ordinary cat. I can't sense it~"
It was impossible for Zach to listen to the waiting tone of the receiver, and he became a little impatient.
Annabel retracted her body, closed the window properly, and walked around to the opposite side of Zach. She looked at Zach who was holding the receiver motionlessly. The twinkling eyes clearly showed that she was thinking about how to let Zach speak to her.
"I quite like Vicky~"
Zach didn't react.
"Your friend the human mayor, Antony's stepson, Caesar, seems to be a troublesome boy~"
Still not a topic that would attract Zach's attention, Zach continued to ignore Annabelle.
However, Zach's impatience level escalated because no one answered the phone yet.
"I think your guest, Lily, doesn't like me very much~" Annabel was about to use a trick, "What a pity, we look a little alike~ It would be great if we could be friends~"
With the waiting sound in his ears, Zach glanced at Annabell's face. The expression on her face couldn't be that of Annabel's, but her heart did feel a bit like "Hey."
Zach can look at him, which is already an encouragement to him. Annabell is not so anxious to use her final killer move, "When Curious Lutrecenbra was still alive, I would look at that face every day and think What~ haha." A very poor imitation of Lutresembula, "'Ah! Holy Lord! I wish I could judge this sinner four centuries ago!'"
Don't complain, you will also do things you are not good at in front of the people you like.
Zach glanced at Annabell again and frowned. "I'm not at home. Unless you expect my cat to answer the phone, please leave a message. But don't expect me to receive the message. My Cat has a habit of deleting messages on my answering machine, don’t argue with me about the possibility of that happening, you’ve been warned.”
Zach hung up the phone immediately.
Annabel seized the opportunity, "Another cat~" and then very cleverly... everyone can learn from it, "Do we like it, or do we hate it?"
Zach was struck by, "There's no 'us' here."
"Then I will follow you closely~ You hate it, I hate it~ You like it, I like it~ Just like I won't eat Roizmich~"
Zach pursed his lips, the focus in his eyes diverging. This is an ethereal state. Even the most gentlemanly person does not know how to deal with this love that is not what he wants.
And everyone needs to remember that Zach has been harassed by this 'love' for four centuries, and believe me, Zach has tried everything.
Zach's dilated pupils were getting bigger and bigger... Sam walked out, "Woman, how much do you know about the aliens in the Republic who are possessed by demons?"
This was the second time today that Sam suddenly acted independently without Zach's permission. Zach's eyes returned to focus instantly, "Sem."
"Sibella is right." Sam had no intention of accepting Zach's recall. It may be a bit ahead of its time, but it can be predicted that there will only be more and more cases where Sam makes independent decisions in the future. Maybe, just maybe, it's not such a good idea to share the souls of wizards with ghosts. At this moment, Seim still finished explaining the reasons for his unauthorized activities, "She is from the Republic, she is a vampire, she understands the Republic, better than everyone in the Federation. Regardless of whether she is Fan Zhuo, she is an important intelligence resource." Mu looked at Zach seriously, "And the... 'love' she has for you now should not be an obstacle for us to obtain information. It should be a bargaining chip that is more convenient for us to use!"
Why. Sam was right, but Sam was also wrong.
That's right, that's the truth. Look at Zach's behavior just now. When he discovered something he didn't understand about the Republic, he had no choice but to go to West, and the feedback he got was the result of a random message.
This fact, not a big one, is enough to illustrate one thing: how lacking the federal side is in obtaining republican intelligence.
We hope that those republican immortals will give information based on their mood and fate. Why not make good use of this countess who takes the initiative to stick to Zach's side
But Sam, this is where he went wrong. Zach didn't want Annabelle to come up...
Annabell is quite smart. After Sam said these words that were suspected of objectifying Fanzhuo and Annabell, she did not express any opinions and kept smiling quietly opposite Zach. It was completely up to you to decide. Looking at your gesture here with love...
Zach had a headache.
Sam wasted no time waiting for Zach to make a decision, and looked at Annabel again, "A republican monk in Barton is possessed. We don't know if he will have any impact on Barton or even the Federation. What do you know, say."
Annabel did not answer Sam, but kept her gaze on Zach, "What type of obsession? Are we talking about a temporary stagnation on the path of practice, or is the path of that monk's practice wrong?"
First of all, Annabell can say such words that neither Zach nor Sam can understand, which shows that Annabell does know the information about the demon.
Secondly, Annabelle used 'we' again.
Before Zach could remind Annabell again, 'There is no us here,' Sam was already anxious, "What's the difference?"
"The difference is that the former can be saved. In most cases, time can solve everything, because usually the reason why people who practice Republicanism linger on this world is love~" Annabel's eyes were locked on Zach, "And love~ is Temporary~unless under certain circumstances, it is artificially 'made' to become eternal..." The ellipsis means that Annabell deliberately slowed down her speaking speed and left a blank after the final sound.
If you don’t understand why Annabell did what she did, review Annabell’s story.
When Zach obviously no longer wanted to endure the weird atmosphere in the office and stood up to leave, Annabell continued in time, "As for the latter, there is no hope. When Republic Life chooses to practice, if you choose He took the wrong path..." Annabell no longer shot a speechless look at Zach with her own eyes, but was told to her with a hint of ridicule, "Then it is destined to become a demon and become rejected by the world. exist."
The office was quiet for a while, and Zach had no intention of speaking, so it was Sam who continued the conversation, "I don't understand what you are talking about. You need to be more specific." Sam hesitated and looked at Zam. Zak's face, but in the end he still made his own decision, "Maitreya, his practice is 'the perfection of life encounters'. Zak was telling him that the republican government does not owe him such a practitioner, and there is no need to sacrifice the development space of republican citizens. After going to satisfy the republican alien race’s pursuit of truth, he became possessed and disappeared in front of us.”
After hearing this, Annabell's eyes fell on Sam for the first time, unintentionally, "Huh?" The corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, "'The perfection of life's encounters'? Haha~" Annabell shook her head and looked back. Zach was very sure, "It's definitely the latter, the hopeless kind~" Then, his eyes returned to the love that left Zach speechless, "You don't need to care about this kind of person, even if you don't say anything, he will Sooner or later you will become possessed.”
Sam seems a little unhappy that Annabelle always ignores him, and Zach agrees with his self-assertion when he gets in front of Annabelle's sight. Sam: "Why are you so sure?"
"Because life can't be perfect~" Annabel's sight was blocked, so she simply drifted away without looking at anyone, and said to the air, "Choosing this path of cultivation is just like the people in the Federation who boringly believe in heaven. Like all good things, they are people's wild expectations, not the true appearance of the world." Annabell shrugged, "If you choose a path to practice that goes against the will of the world, you are doomed to fail. And becoming possessed is the punishment of the world~" Annabell suddenly said to Something got him interested. He turned sideways, bypassed Sam's obstruction, and looked at Zack, "Did you see that Maitreya was possessed? What did it look like? Purple thunder and lightning, or black fire?"
Zach felt really bad.
You can tell, Annabel's understanding of the Republic is absolutely solid! For Zach, Annabelle is now like a box containing countless treasures. Zach really didn’t want to touch the box, but the box kept beckoning to Zach, come and drive me~~
"Black fire." Sam moved, blocking Annabell's sight again.
"Evil~" Annabell put on a look of disgust, not because of Sam who was blocking her view, but because of her reaction to this topic. Her eyes drifted away again, "That's a bit troublesome. That Maitreya hasn't been eliminated from the world yet, which means he's still alive somewhere..." Annabell turned her gaze back and walked around Sam to look at Zach, "Next time you If you see him, stay away, I heard Zagel..." Annabell suddenly stopped, because she said 'Zager', this pause just started to make Zach pay attention, Annabell continued, "I heard Zagel talk about soul expansion. A Ban Lin's soul created a branch of the world in this world." When Annabell talked about Zagel for the second time, her tone no longer had anything special. , it seems that she still wants to hide her unique skill, "The black fire situation is a bit like this soul expansion."
Although Zach remained expressionless, he had already connected some key points in his heart.
What the devil is is no longer important. There is only one point in what Annabell said and she was rejected by the world. The Federation has something like Banlin, a necessary condition for soul expansion, a soul that is no longer allowed to exist in this world!
So even if Annabelle doesn't make the connection between Maitreya and Soul Expansion, Zack will.
Annabell continued, "For other creatures, it's okay. At most, it's just to bring others to the world of their own demons, a fake world created by the soul that violates the world (corresponding to the time loop world of soul expansion), and brainwash them. But for For us vampires, it is somewhat fatal, I believe you already understand. All we can do is wait until that Maitreya is completely burned away by the punishment of the world... "
Sam blocked Annabelle again, "It sounds very dangerous. How can we speed up his demise?"
Annabell also tried to divert her attention again and again, not wanting Sam to follow him everywhere.
Annabell looked at Sam, and Sam looked at Annabell. The two looked at each other... After half a minute, Annabell spoke, "You are going to be disappointed. The foreign races in the Republic are afraid of avoiding demons. Demons will Contagious. Because of their wrong expectations of the world, they are very brainwashed ~ So I suggest you be Zach's, 'affiliate'!" Must, aggravate the affiliation! "It's already a republican ghost life form, so it's best not to do stupid things."
Sam didn't mind being deliberately targeted by Annabel. It was the truth anyway, "I know this. I immediately realized that Maitreya became a demon because I overheard the Republic God 'Jian' talking about being a demon. The Republic God also had this idea." There is no way to grow things." Counterattack, "That's why I ask you, Fan Zhuo, tell me that your secret alliance has been in the Republic for so many years, and you don't have any means to protect yourself."
The meaning of this is obvious, since demons are a threat to vampires, and we also know that the alien races of the Republic are not restrained by vampires. The Secret Alliance really has no advantage in the Republic and can only rely on itself. What Seim is asking about is how the Secret Alliance can achieve success in the Republic on its own.
The Secret Alliance must have made some achievements. Sharing souls to demote Fan Zhuo and avoid angel attacks is one of these achievements, isn't it
Now please hand over more.
"How to protect yourself from the devil of the Republic?" Annabel looked at Seim, "I'm sorry." She lowered her head, not looking at anyone, "We don't have it." She looked up, "But Papa Midnight does, uh." Directly. He waved his hand and pushed Seme away forcibly so that his eyes could meet Zach's, "Strictly speaking, it's the God of the Republic next to Papa Midnight, Pucci has it. So, that Pucci went to Papa Midnight, To avoid being hunted by the other gods of the Republic, side with the Republican government.”
Zach curled his lips, tsk, it sounds like the gods on the Republican side are also a mess. If he continues to listen, Zach will have to get involved in matters that he has no voluntary contact with.
Then, stop.
"That's enough." Zach stood up, "I'm hungry."
