Chapter 491 Strategic Balance

After a heart-to-heart talk with Andrew, Fitch was convinced that the impact of his return was controllable, so he immediately sent a messenger - not the kind who could die on the road - to report the good news to his family.
Fitch first received a reply from his father, and then used teleportation spell to take Andrew and Silver Dragon (and egg) to the south. When everyone saw his long-lost family return safely, they cried and laughed, and were so excited that they couldn't help themselves. Alisa turned into a human form, and in almost everyone's eyes he was a beautiful, dignified, gentle and proud young woman, especially Shanny kept praising her mother for being beautiful. Only Fitch could see through the transformation and illusion, and the dragon's appearance under the human face was clearly visible. But in order to agree with Shanny, he pretended not to see it. As Andrew's parents, they quickly accepted this "woman he met when he disappeared and lost his memory" and fully carried forward the glorious tradition of "my family is not a loss."
Feige and Andrew only stayed there for a whole day, and then used teleportation spell to travel a long distance to the Lighthouse. Carroll and Delmond are here, and Andrew's own home is here.
I originally wanted to receive Carroll's letter again, but Feiqi didn't expect that he would not reply. This time the messenger was not dead on the road. He complained about Carroll's irresponsibility in his heart for a million times. Although he didn't want to come, he still had to come for peace of mind.
"The lighthouse leader is still the same, and in comparison, Tawugang City can no longer be recognized." Andrew asked Fitch not to teleport directly into the castle, but to walk in from the outside of the city, so that he could look at the suburbs and inside the city along the way.
"Tawugang City has been attacked by blood-colored meteors so many times. Every time, many places have been knocked down and rebuilt, so of course the changes will be even greater." Feiqi forcedly explained: "You haven't been beaten here, but you still maintain the original scenery and characteristics. Isn't this good?"
"The key is that there is no progress, people are still the same as before." Andrew now has a hairy face. If he wears a hat, it will be difficult for acquaintances to recognize him. Moreover, in order to satisfy his hobby of visiting his territory, Fitch used illusion to change the observations of people around him about their appearance, so no one will recognize any of them along the way.
"You have time to change here."
Andrew thought a lot, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult to see Carroll. After coming to the castle and reporting his identity, all of them were turned away and almost threw them into the cell as a liar. Andrew was rarely angry, and Feiqi comforted him and said, "This shows that Carroll is very vigilant and has great protection for Delmond."
Even though he said this, he still released the magic snake Coktal to determine the location of Carroll and Delmond, and then teleported it directly. At present, only Feiqi can use teleportation technology to such a perfection, so this is also considered a self-certification of identity. Carroll was watching Delmond stumble in the garden and chopped the straw target with a wooden sword. He was startled by the sudden teleportation, but she instantly hid the fright.
"You tried to avoid me in vain, but I can understand; why did you try to avoid Andrew? Do you think I would find a fake Andrew to deceive you? Are you deceiving yourself or do you really look down on my intelligence and methods? I really want to..."
Before Feiqi finished speaking, Andrew had already held Carol in his arms and used familiar breath, movements and kisses to make her realize the reality. Well, Silver Dragon Alisa is still next to her. In order to prevent her from freezing all the place with one breath, Feiqi snapped her fingers and forced her attention to turn around.
"What are you doing? How beautiful this is!" Yinlong was very dissatisfied and complained to Feiqi: "I am not very familiar with human bodies and am just about to observe and learn more!"
"Then you see, but don't be fascinated. Andrew just came back, you have to pay attention to his safety."
"No need to say it." Alisa stared at Feige: "Are you still going to stay here for a meal?"
OK, this is Andrew's house, and there may be something that is not suitable for Feiqi to watch next, such as the direct confrontation between her mother-in-law and her sister-in-law. Feiqi thought of that scene and had a cold war, and then grabbed Shani's hand and ran away with teleportation.
Andrew returned to the Lighthouse Corps, the messenger would never return empty-handed again, right?
So Shanny added another activity: to write letters to Alisa in the unskilled Dragon Word. She only cared about her relationship with her mother and things related to the Dragon Egg, and did not care about the uproar caused by Andrew's return among the old nobles.
There are many old nobles who don’t like the present empire. After all, there is still a certain difference between recognizing reality and accepting reality. The time to smooth out this difference has not passed long enough. Various news is flying all over the sky, and the intelligence minister Mathers is so busy that only Feiqi sits firmly on the Diaoyutai and has to comfort his ministers in turn.
"There is no need to do this. Even if they are allowed to connect, what can they do? Andrew will not rebel against me, and the nobles of the United Kingdom of Hoya died in the battle between the coalition and me. There are only a few people who are qualified to speak out to the United Kingdom. They are all very smart and no one wants to be the first to be the first. This will cool down quickly."
As expected, things were as Fitch thought. The rumors and noise quickly subsided, and the relationship between the Lighthouse Leader who was re-controlled by Andrew and the Empire was significantly improved. A large number of speculative mice smelled the smell of a shipwreck and left the territory one after another, and were caught by Mathers who opened the net of arrest. Most of the people were quickly released after some education. Several guys who had been sowed by Carroll were sent back to the Lighthouse Leader by Fitch and handed over to Andrew.
Feiqi didn't care about how Andrew dealt with them. He left most mundane things to concentrate on dealing with the second world. During his absence, the Deep Demon Yaka had successfully completed the "second impact" and seized the second of the four divine crystal storages as a whole.
Defending this storage warehouse is a group of very strange mutant monsters, with unpredictable special abilities, and cannot be inferred from common sense. Those with wings cannot fly, while those without eyes can emit petrified gazes. All kinds of unconventional things will make any attacker anxious, but they do not include the devil.
During the long bloody battle, the devil's experience in fighting with the demons was very sufficient, and was engraved in the memory and abilities of devils of different classes from hell. Although demons also have clear types, the nature of chaos always makes them mutate, so unexpected abilities and threats will appear from time to time.
The attack was organized with extreme discipline and order, and they advanced layer by layer, striding and steadily, without any damage, but seeking merit... Under Yaka's command, the devils slowly but effectively flattened the entire warehouse and killed all the non-devil creatures inside. Most of the devil's losses occurred when the battle was about to end. The mutant creatures in desperate situation forced the divine crystals, and then burst out powerful forces in a short time, making it difficult for the Deep Demon to fight. The Deep Demon hired by Yaka very "skillfully" died two of them in the battle with divine mutant creatures, and the remaining one was also seriously injured. Under the close attention of Yaka, they could not live until they returned to the devil fortress on the Floating Continent with rewards.
The few surviving devils were promoted, using the power in the divine crystal. Through the promotion, these devils were already inseparable from Feich's territory and became his subordinates. After tasting the sweetness, even if Feich did not urge them, they would try to reproduce this success and obtain the next advancement under the bewitching of greed.
The success of the devils will definitely make war, balance the two knights and other powerful men in the second world feel a real threat, and they will not be able to sit down again. Feiqi expects that the devil fortress floating on the continent will encounter an attack, and Yaka also has the same view, so she has been trying to strengthen the defense here. The stronger devil, more demonic light killing cannons, and a stronger and tighter line of defense. Soon, the devil fortress has been built into a powerful fortress that will be efficient even in bloody battles. If a demon like a wave cannot rush, then the soldiers of the second world trapped by distance can only appear like a river at best, and they cannot rush.
Fitch gave the fortress to Yaka with confidence. He did not interfere, but set up some magic circles outside the Devil Fortress, which seemed very busy. From the bottom of his heart, he was not optimistic about Yaka's defense plan, because opposite her was a knight called "War", who had divine power and occupied the home court, and used war means to fight against the "War Knights", and was naturally at a disadvantage.
What would the divine power of war look like? If you think about it, you will probably understand it. The divine power of greed is devouring. This ability comes from the deepest part of its soul and is a kind of self-expression. The divine power of war knights cannot escape from things related to war. Perhaps it is to make the warriors on one side stronger, perhaps create soldiers out of thin air, or perhaps directly control war.
Feiqi made full imagination of the ability of the War Knight. He felt that the most likely and most dangerous situation was "manipulating the war", that is, the modification result, but perhaps different from the modification result characteristic of the infinite zero-point rune. Feiqi's personality is to get rid of others' control, make decisions on himself, and thus complete the work and achieve the result he wants. Therefore, the infinite zero-point rune will eventually fall on "producing the result."
War Knights may be different. Judging from the description of Silver Dragon Elisa, the main characteristic of War Knights is that they like war, and war is a process, and the ending war can only be called peace or confrontation. Therefore, Fitch has reason to suspect that the War Knights' ability is to maintain the state of war, which forces both sides to continue fighting and unable to escape.
This is not necessarily true, but it is not without precedent. Isn’t the bloody battle considered an eternal state without ending for a long time? Although it is a truce, the demon’s hatred of the demon against the devil has not been eliminated. The cause and driving force of the bloody battle is still there, and it is just that Asmotils has gained a temporary advantage with his strong magical ability.
Feiqi found himself having a similar problem to Asmotils: how to end the war. "Let the devil end the war" seems completely uncorrectable, but think about it carefully, why can't the devil do this?
The ending of war must not be a means of war. Negotiation may be one of them, but Feiqi does not think that he has anything to talk about with the war knights. Even if the war is out of normalcy, Feiqi will not accept it. This is contrary to his personal emotions and even contrary to his plan to save the Yongli Continent. The war must be defeated, otherwise the Second World and Yongli Continent will always be under the threat of war. This is not only literally, but also the question of who takes the initiative. If Feiqi wants to make the work of saving the world reach "infinite zero point", he must eliminate all interference, especially war.
He has been thinking about how to end the war for a long time. Fortunately, the war he faced was only in the second world, focusing on the Apple nuclear planet and the floating continent, which was much less difficult than Asmotils. With Alisa's intelligence, Feiqi quickly decided what to do. On the contrary, he made a magic circle outside the Devil Fortress, but he secretly arranged the real ending method in the Silver Dragon Cave.
He also found the soul fossil. As the Silver Dragon said, it was installed on the skull of a Cyclops and disguised as the teeth of the Cyclops. In order to avoid alerting the War Knights, Feiqi did not move it, and directly arranged powerful illusions around it, pretending that the Silver Dragon was still in the cave. Since Andrew's return caused a stir in the Yongli Continent, the War Knights knew it sooner or later, Feiqi knew very well that the Silver Dragon's affairs would not be hidden for long, and the final showdown with the War Knights was imminent.
But he didn't expect that Balance would come to him first.
Balance is a blue humanoid floating in the air. Its body is hairless, emitting shimmer, and has no gender characteristics. Its facial features seem to be painted, and it does not look real. It seems to be just to express the basic functions of the organs, so it can only be represented by "it". There is a few strokes of balance symbols at the center of its eyebrows, like a black tattoo, all composed of straight lines and triangles, without any round strokes. It slowly flies from the main planet of the Apple nuclear power to the Devil Fortress, and as soon as it comes, it asks to talk to "Fei Saint Hall". The attacks and spells of ordinary devils penetrate through its body, as if it does not exist. Jaka really wants to try whether the god-like power of the Deep Demon and the Hell Contract can hurt it, and Fei stops this attempt.
"This is a projection, its true body is in another dimension, and it has no point in attacking it. It uses it to be unable to launch an attack, thus causing all attacks on it to fail. So don't be nervous, it's just here to talk about it."
Feiqi stood in front of the blue balance with the appearance of the contract demon. It bowed slightly, and confirmed that the devil in front of him was Feiqi without explanation or explanation. "It's a little late to see you now, but it's a little earlier than what might happen." As soon as the balance opens, it makes the other devils confused. However, Feiqi understood that this "late" means that the balance intervenes a little late; and "early" is the order of Fitch fighting first and then dealing with the balance.
"To this day, at least between the Devil Fortress and the Apple Nuclear Planet, there is no secret. With attention, the conspiracy has no room for display, and the rest is a head-on process." Feiqi made a call and floated up. The two left the fortress and came outside to avoid the devil's open area. "Although I think it's not very likely, I still have to ask: Are you here to surrender or cooperate?"
"Neither. I am not here to persuade surrender or fight." Jingfang said: "I have always attached great importance to the balance between destruction and rebirth, but I always feel that this process is the crushing of the Creator God, and there is no way to balance. Even the struggle of thunder is not enough to restore the whole thing to balance. Until you appear, I feel relieved, but at the same time, with a feeling of knowing that the balance must be maintained, I see that the truth that balance must be maintained is verified again. Therefore, I have reason to act and add another weight to this balance."
