Xu Sili frowned slightly as he looked at the text on the light screen.
Eliminate or retain consciousness...
"What did Arnolden ask you to do?"
From the window, the voice of Si Sheng's interrogation continued.
Mary has been completely controlled by the skills. She will answer whatever he asks. At this moment, she said truthfully: "Lord Arnoldon said that the situation has changed, and plan B is adopted."
"Plan B? Tell me more."
Mary replied dumbly: "Plan B is to hijack the new emperor and let him hand over the authority of the Roland Empire, so that the Bayvat Empire can successfully take over Aixuexing."
At this moment, Si Sheng suddenly frowned slightly and looked up at Xu Sili.
Xu Sili, who was thinking about options, couldn't help but froze.
Facing the man's dark golden eyes, an innocent expression of "I'm very good" appeared on his face, but his heart was beating wildly.
Did this guy find something
Fortunately, Si Sheng only glanced at him, didn't seem to notice anything, then lowered his head again and looked at Mary who lost his eyes.
"What if he won't cooperate?" he continued.
Mary paused and said softly: "Kill him, then the Roland Empire will fall into chaos, and we will stir up the water in secret."
Xu Sili frowned.
It was because he thought it too simply.
Snow Roland's situation... is it so dangerous? So apart from Si Sheng, how many people wanted to kill him
"You are from Ai Xue Xing, why did you choose to betray?"
At this time, he heard Si Sheng ask.
At first glance, Mary looked like Ai Xue Xing's, after all, it seemed that the Bewaite people were all lizardmen.
Moreover, in Snow Roland's memory, he seemed to treat this maid sister well, and he did not treat or even abuse her in any way.
"Lord Arnolden promised me that after the completion of the matter, he will arrange me to the Flanders Interstellar Federation."
Mary said quietly.
"I will start a new life there. I don't have to worry about being recruited by the army every moment like I am now, and I may go to the front and lose my life at any time!"
Xu Sili was silent.
Mary is an elementalist, and it is estimated that it is a rare talent of the dark department. In the Roland Empire, most of the elementalists are stationed in the army to fight the interstellar beasts on the front line.
She was indeed in danger of being recruited, but Xu Sili knew that the original little emperor had no such thoughts.
"How many of you are there?"
Si Sheng was expressionless, and the interrogation was still going on.
"There are only two I know, they are waiting for me outside, and if I don't succeed, they will carry out other plans."
"Other plans?"
"Well, I didn't participate in those, but most likely it is to open the city gate and put the star beast in it..."
Mary's voice suddenly became excited, "So I must succeed! Even if I kill Your Majesty, I can't let them open the city gate!"
"That's too dangerous, a lot of people will die!"
Xu Sili: "..."
So other people's lives are lives, but not his
However, the original Sinuo Roland really wanted to abandon his people and surrender Ai Xuexing.
Without him crossing over, without him rejecting...
Well, then Sinuo Roland was also killed by Si Sheng, so the conspiracy of the Baywart Empire would not succeed.
I don't know if it was caused by violent mood swings, or if Si Sheng released the control, Mary's eyes suddenly began to regain clarity. She was a little dazed at first, and then widened her eyes in shock.
"what did you do to me?!"
She glared at Si Sheng and said with a face full of horror.
Obviously, she still retains the memory of when she was just controlled. The feeling is probably terrible, and she can't help but say everything the enemy wants to know, and it's creepy to think about.
Si Sheng's dark golden eyes also returned to their original state, with gray-blue eyes, calm and indifferent.
"last question."
He said, "Do you know what will happen to the remaining people after the Roland Empire is destroyed?"
Mary's face paled, her eyes twinkling, and she said nothing.
"Looks like you know."
Si Sheng tilted his head slightly and said indifferently, "Then there is nothing to say."
Without giving her any more time to defend herself, the light bullet sank into Mary's forehead. The woman's eyes widened in disbelief at first, and then her pupils dilated away.
She fell softly to the ground, dying.
Xu Sili opened his mouth with difficulty, but felt something stuck in his throat, making him speechless.
This is his first...
Seeing others die in front of you.
He could see the woman's unwilling expression when she was dying, see the thick blood flowing from her body, and the strong bloody smell, which was blown by the wind...
She did not disappear into a light spot, she was not a pile of cold data, but a real living person.
And now she is dead.
Si Sheng looked back and saw that the silver-haired boy had a pale face, and even his lips were trembling.
Is this afraid
What about the courage to offend him just now
Xu Sili felt a shadow covering him.
The tall man's figure blocked his vision, driving the terrifying blood red away from him, replacing it with a snow-white military uniform with gold threads.
Xu Sili pursed his lips and looked up at Si Sheng.
The man's light blond hair was blown slightly by the wind, and his gray-blue eyes were still so cold, but he was strangely less fearful.
Obviously this guy just killed someone in front of him.
Perhaps it was the light screen floating in the void that gave him confidence.
Xu Sili thought so.
At this moment, Si Sheng looked at him and twitched the corner of his mouth lightly.
That stern expression made Xu Sili suspect that in the next second, he would raise the laser gun to his forehead again.
However, what he feared did not happen.
Si Sheng lowered his eyes slightly, fell on his feet, and said in a low voice, "Keep it for now, and I'll pick it up when I'm done with those trash fish."
Xu Sili blinked.
The next second, Si Sheng raised his hand, Xu Sili only felt a flash in front of him, thinking what he was going to do, his heart skipped a beat.
However, after a closer look, he saw that the Radium 4000 was thrown over, and he took it subconsciously.
Xu Shi had just been shot a few times, and the barrel of the gun was a little hot, but it wouldn't burn anyone in his hand.
He raised his head in a daze, the man had already turned and walked towards the door, leaving him an indifferent back.
Walking to the door, he suddenly stopped and looked at him sideways.
"Don't die."
After he left a sentence without end, he lifted his foot and left the palace.
Xu Sili didn't return to his senses for a long time.
Um? What does this mean
He looked down at the laser gun in his hand. After firing a few shots, the value did not change much, only the durability decreased by 1, and the energy decreased by 5%.
So, Si Sheng left this gun... for self-defense
Xu Sili was very confused.
But at this moment, the guard outside the door suddenly rushed in, and he hurriedly clenched the laser gun tightly and defended in front of him.
He watched the guards warily.
They bowed respectfully and apprehensively to him, and without waiting for him to say anything, went to deal with Mary's body.
The sincere and frightened expression was probably frightened by Si Sheng. When he came back just now, this group of people didn't react so much.
Xu Sili pursed his lips, but did not relax. He was assassinated twice in a row, which made him a little startled.
In this unfamiliar world, the situation facing the new emperor, Snow Roland, was too dangerous for him, and his current strength was not enough to make him stand in an immortal place.
even…
Xu Sili recited the skill panel in his heart, and another light screen jumped out.
The only singing skill he has mastered - [Capture], is being cooled down, and the cooling time is still...
29 days, 23 hours and 55 minutes.
A full month.
Xu Sili's expression was slightly condensed, and he clenched the laser gun in his hand, and then closed the skill panel.
He was not surprised by the cooldown of this skill.
After all, it is really too powerful. It ignores the level gap and can easily turn others into its own puppet.
However, trouble came next, which meant that he didn't have any self-defense skills.
His eyes were fixed on the guards.
[Respect][Friendly][Friendly][Respect]…
The only thing that is fortunate is that he has a favorability system, which at least allows him to distinguish between enemy and friend at a glance, so that he will not be stabbed in the back.
only…
Snow Roland's relationship is indeed worrying.
As an emperor, even the guards around him can't be more than respected by all the members. It is no wonder that the public support rate is so low that there will be a level of rebellion almost immediately.
Xu Sili was helpless, but didn't do anything immediately.
Without strength, it is useless to say anything.
Soon, the guards took the dead Mary away and asked the maid to change the carpet.
Janice has arrived, directing the maids to clean up the mess.
During this period, she planned to approach Xu Sili, but when she saw that he was holding the gun alertly, she stopped and just increased her strength to urge the maids to act.
After a while, the bedroom was cleaned up, the air purification was turned on again, and then perfume was sprayed on, which completely eliminated the strong bloody smell.
When everyone left, and only Janice was left, Xu Sili relaxed a little.
Janice came to the bed and looked at him with red eyes full of love.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?"
Xu Sili was seen to be a little uncomfortable, especially with the suffix "Mom Fan" hanging on her head.
But anyway, he had some confidence in her.
"It's okay," he said calmly.
Janice blamed herself, shocked and angry at the thought of Mary's betrayal.
"Your Majesty, I was negligent this time. I will thoroughly investigate the maids in the palace and give Your Majesty an explanation!"
Xu Sili nodded, but he felt that Si Sheng was probably already doing it.
At this time, the head maid said again: "Then Your Majesty... Do you need Janice to stay with you tonight?"
It was said to be company, but in fact it was for protection, and I was worried that the young man would be too scared to sleep.
Xu Sili was somewhat moved.
In special times, it is impossible to take care that the other party is a stranger of the opposite sex.
He agreed with Janice to stay.
Then Janice poured him another cup of hot water.
Holding the glass, feeling the slightly cold palms gradually warming up, he glanced at the window again inadvertently, came back to his senses, and hurriedly moved away.
People are not killed by him, he does not need to be nervous or afraid.
It's just that everyone understands the truth. Whether it can be done is another matter. Xu Sili held the glass and drank all the hot water in it.
When he drank all the water, his ups and downs also calmed down.
Putting the glass on the bedside table, he finally made up his mind and pressed the option on the prompt screen.
[2. Retain consciousness, the puppet will maintain its original independent personality and self, be out of control, and have the right to disobey instructions, but cannot do anything to harm the master, including but not limited to direct action and instructing others]
What about eliminating Si Sheng's consciousness
With a powerful puppet, can he be guaranteed to live safely in this different world full of crises
He knows too little about the world.
Just like Mary who just attacked, without Si Sheng's words, could he rely on his own subjective judgment to discover her and instruct Si Sheng to kill her in time
Xu Sili did not have this confidence.
So he decided to take a gamble.
Let Si Sheng retain his self-awareness on the premise that he can't hurt him, and at least have the possibility of developing into an ally.
He needs this ally before he can protect himself.
As for the previous unhappiness...
Xu Sili's eyes flashed slightly.
Just remember first, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.
When he was thinking, the light curtain in front of him appeared line by line of small characters.
[Ding ~ puppet [Si Sheng] contract is successful]
[Under the choice of retaining consciousness, you will obtain the following abilities]
[1. The puppet cannot hurt you, and attacking you will cause backlash (the attack will be doubled and the critical strike rate will increase)]
[2. You will be able to use the skills mastered by the puppet, and the required magic value is doubled]
[3. You can summon the puppet at any time. After the puppet agrees, it will be teleported to you immediately]
