“You’re a local.” “It’s not like I know everyone.” Cecil said: "She is a member of the Triple Alliance. What if she and Count Marseille collude to play tricks on you and take advantage of your absence to rape Don Rodick... Oh, why are you hitting me?" Gao Naiyi sighed: "Doctor, even if she is an enemy, there is no need to imagine that the enemy is going straight to the lower three roads. Besides, they are an elf species with many "advanced concepts", so how could they look down on Mr. Tang Rodick who has many backward concepts and reproductive isolation?" "You didn't deny the possibility that she was an enemy." "Mr. Tang Rodick chose to believe her. This poor man had lost too much. Her Highness Ingrid, who lent a helping hand, temporarily served as part of his spiritual support. We support No. 96, not Count Don Rodic, because we have no involvement in his past life... I have to take some risks, which is also the last price that Mr. Don Rodic paid for his trust. " "You need Count Don Rodick?" Cecil asked. "From a profit perspective, that's right."

"What if his last pillar of support collapses?" Corneille replied: "Then let him be number 96 and forget everything. Although he is not as good as Count Don Rodic, I will train him and make him a qualified fighter. Then, I will avenge the dead heroes, Shimana and Count Marseille. At least I will not let these two have an easy time. But don't expect me to fight an enemy I can't defeat." Cecil checked Don Rodic's condition and said to Corneille: "I have a very risky plan for memory. If I use a large dose of medicine, it can indeed restore his memory, but it will cause great damage to his body." "Can't we use Dias's method to heal his body?" asked Corneille. "You seem to have a misunderstanding: a man who changes his gender to a young girl doesn't really mean he has regained his youth, it's just the appearance... Strictly speaking, because of the existence of magic, she will be better than when she was a man. Isabella's ability to reproduce is due to the fact that she was able to accumulate an incredible amount of magical power in a short period of time, which made her body full of vitality... To be honest, I still don't understand how she did it. Not to mention Diaz, he is very young. You see, I prescribed him a reduced dose of medicine because I was worried that his body could not handle it. After all, magic has limited healing effects on the body. Once the body sustains excessive damage, everything is irreversible. Mr. Tang Luodike is almost fifty years old and has lost his extraordinary powers. Life in the Discipline Tower has greatly damaged his health. If he drinks a large dose of the drug, it will be hard to say how long he will live. " "I'll ask his opinion," said Corneille. "Are you really going to do this business at a loss? I didn't know you were such a loving person." "The situation has changed. The death knell of the king of the forest has caused my value to skyrocket. If I can chop off enough heads, it should be able to make up for the loss of Mr. Don Rodick." Corneille said: "Duke Dias...he participated in this matter out of sympathy. He yearns for justice and beauty, so I will try my best to make this matter have a just and beautiful ending. Moreover, he has recently had some radical thoughts, which are not good for him in the long run. Because he did not fight to get to this position by himself, but inherited the title of the previous generation, so he cannot act like this. Besides, Mr. Tang Rodick is a warrior whom I respect. Based on personal feelings, I don’t want him to think of himself as a woman. It feels weird and is also an injury to his male dignity. He is already in a miserable state, and if I cannot save him, at least I must prevent him from becoming even more miserable.” Corneille hesitated for a moment and said: "There is another way. I will kill Count Marseille and eliminate the troubles at the source."

"He is a congressman. If we kill him, the extraordinary people under Duke Berry will be dispatched. Moreover, the people of the Three States Alliance will also use this as an opportunity to cause trouble. Don't expect the witches of Waite to protect you. You have value, but the value you imagine is somewhat different from what they think it is. In short, think about Dias. If you kill Count Marseille, he will also be blamed because your character is not a murderer. There will definitely be people who say that he ordered you to do it. Do you think Isabella will cut you off at that time?" "…This is just the most extreme scenario. I'm still thinking about the details." Cecil shrugged. "Whatever you think. Okay, you go out first. She needs to change her clothes." Corneille nodded and went out. Polly's voice was heard outside the door, occasionally mixed with Corneille's answer, and the two voices gradually faded away. Don Rodick opened his eyes. "You heard the conversation just now. Yes, I woke you up early on purpose so that you could hear his true thoughts," said Cecil. "..." "I'll be the bad guy. If you die, Corneille and Dias will have a hard time. I know you all have consciences, so you will definitely make a conscientious choice." "I won't commit suicide," said Don Rodick. "Then, you should move around in female form as much as possible, learn magic, and use magic to heal yourself." "Can a man who turns into a woman also learn magic?" Cecil nodded. "Yes, actually, everyone in Waite can learn magic, but the witches deliberately monopolize knowledge and control the number of privileged classes. For example, men are not allowed to learn magic." "The Diaz you just mentioned..." "Ah, that's it. Now let's talk about your memory." "I don't want to be a woman," said Don Rodick. "Then the memory-restoring potion will kill you quickly, and that's an unacceptable loss for your rescuers." "You really care about them, Doc." Cecil's expression softened, and after a few seconds, her expression turned into surprise. "Where are you going?" the doctor asked. "I have a solution that will give you the best of both worlds." In the center of the forest, in a holiday estate built on the mountain, Don Rodick met Ingrid, who was working as a gardener, pruning flowers, plants and trees. Ingrid was a little surprised to see Tang Rodik appear as a woman: "It's hard to imagine that you, who cares most about male dignity, would show up like this... It seems that you are well prepared." "Yes." “I have good news for you. The family you helped in Hequese has arrived in Weite. Upon hearing that you were in trouble but not dead, they were all very happy to come and testify for you, and asked my messenger to convey that they would provide assistance as much as possible. "

"……Great." "Life is still beautiful, so are you sure you want to go to extremes?" Ingrid asked. "Yes, I cannot let my benefactors, who have given everything, witness my death. That would only bring sadness to them. I would leave them nothing." Tang Luodike's eyes were firm: "Your Highness, I beg you to use your divine weapon 'Snake Eye' on me, turn me back into a man and restore all my memories - even if I can never regain my male body and lose all my memories afterwards." Chapter 83 Cat Box On June 6, the intermittent rain in Merida finally stopped, and the students of the Comprehensive College had their crucial final exams. The exams for ordinary people only consisted of answering questions, but the exams for the witches included a practical component. For other residents, it is an opportunity for them to temporarily leave and go to the summer resorts in the east of Weite. Even for the people of Merida, the humidity and heat in Merida are unbearable. In the mansion, Shimanna waved a feather fan, looking extremely haggard. She not only lived in the fear that Corneille and Don Rodic would ruin her reputation, but also lived in the fear that her husband would deal with Corneille and Don Rodic and come back to embezzle her property. In the past, although Count Marseille had the advantage of being a superhuman, he did not dare to embezzle the assets of an ordinary person like her because he had no excuse to embezzle the property at that time. If he forcibly seized the property, he would not only have to pay a large inheritance tax, but also face a dilemma - No powerful family would marry their daughter to a man who had embezzled his wife's dowry. In addition, she divided her property among herself (the part deposited in the Central Bank of Hequese and the part used to purchase government bonds), her parents in the Bishui State, her foreign agents, and the Deep Dark Fantasy Accounting Firm in the Binhai State. Count Marseille could not take it all in one go, so he gave her enough room to maneuver. But now, her husband has an advantage over her: even if Corneille really helps Don Rodique win the resurrection match, Count Marseille can put all the blame on her, declare the marriage invalid, and return her to Don Rodique. While Don Rodick was venting his anger on her, he could sue her for fraud, or take advantage of her mistake to reasonably get a sum of assets and then marry the daughter of a wealthy and powerful family. Times have changed. Even if a woman has been divorced once, as long as she has not committed any major faults, people are happy to let their daughters become the wives of congressmen. Opposite Shimana, Count Marseille had a good appetite - if he was slower, Selena would have taken over the lunch. Vegetable salad, champagne sturgeon, grilled lamb sirloin, raw rose oysters, dessert with crushed ice, and 1230 vintage red wine provided by Chateau Margaux, this typical Hershey lunch made Selena look satisfied. "The Duke of Alva's legal deal with the Trial Domain does not only concern Dr. Cecil. They have submitted special charges to the domain and asked the two of you to come and explain. The Trial Domain will make a direct ruling." "Is this legal?!" Count Marseille was a little surprised. "The Holy Sword branch of the Judgment Domain deals with crimes committed by men, while the Pentacle branch deals with crimes committed using the black magic. They filed a lawsuit with the Judgment Domain on the grounds that Don Rodick was originally a man and was murdered and attacked using the black magic." "I don't use dark magic!" “However, the supernatural power used by Mr. La Marche is so unpopular that people can easily identify that it does not belong to the mainstream supernatural power system in the world. According to Waite's logic, before the box is opened, you cannot be sure whether the cat inside is dead or alive. At this time, whether the cat is still alive or dead is valid. Now, the power you use is a cat box problem. When its principles and settings are not revealed, then the Duke of Alva can claim that it is black magic. I think they will not forcefully prove that this is black magic, but will instead turn their attack around Don Rodick." "My blockade of Don Rodick is perfect. Even if they can break it, it will be after I leave Waite. By then, I have a hundred ways to prove my innocence." Count Marseille's expression gradually became serious: "Hey, isn't there any new evidence?" "It's possible, because Corneille left Merida and headed for Campeche, a border city west of Waite, to prepare to welcome the Federation."

"He still has help at this time... Damn it, it can't be that person!" Count Marseille stood up and paced around the room: "Where are the people from the Tripartite Alliance? Why didn't they share the information?" Selina said with some sarcasm: "Obviously, you are too wishful to think that they are deeply tied to your interests. But now it seems that their assistance to you is more like the 'Royal Killer' plan is threatened by Corneille. Now, when they think Corneille is no longer an obstacle, they will even use Corneille to suppress you. After all, you are a republican and you control the hot business of canal engineering. Perhaps they have something else to pursue?" Count Marseille thought about it. In addition to the possibility mentioned by Selina, the people of the Three States Alliance probably took a fancy to his ability to make a living and had proposed a deal with him in the "Justice" field before in the Merida Grand Court. However, handing over his unique skills would undoubtedly mean handing over his weaknesses to the Three Kingdoms Alliance. At that time, they would no longer treat him as an equal, but would treat him like a dog. Moreover, is Selina trustworthy? She has been trying to trick him into revealing her special abilities, which might help him break the curse, or make it easier for him to take Don Rodick for himself. This is the biggest weakness of Count Marseille. From making his fortune to recognizing his father as a son to becoming a member of parliament, all his glory was borrowed from others. He has a shallow foundation and does not have his own core team. When faced with a life-threatening situation, he could not find any confidants or friends he could absolutely trust, and he himself was not able to change the situation of the battle with his own strength. But now, he had to give it a try. He couldn't bet that Gao Naiyi's party would invite trash from the Federation who posed no threat to him. He said to Selena: "We are going to Campeche too." Selina nodded. "Can we find more people?" "At most three. Sister Helena and Doctor Cecil from the Duke of Alva's side have all the information about the guilty witches. If we send out too many people, it would be bad if they recognized us. Also, be careful of the assistance of the Longueville family." "I heard that the two groups broke off the talks?" asked Count Marseille. "Maybe it's a smokescreen." After Selina left, Count Marseille said to Shimana: "Well, we may have to share life and death now. I will go to Campeche to fight Corneille, and you will go to the Knights' Consulate in Merida to seek asylum. If things go well, we can leave Weite safely; if things go badly, we may have to hurry back to Hequese." Shimana nodded. Count Marseille canceled all his plans on the grounds of feeling unwell, and only brought three trusted subordinates with him to meet the three guilty witches brought by Selena outside the city. Although the Three States Alliance did not provide any combat support, it provided assistance to Count Marseille and his entourage in their journey, concealing the fact that they were no longer in Merida. Like Nebuchadnezzar Town, the "Chariot" and "Hermit" realms that share control of the border city of Campeche, and the "Star" realm, the king's direct territory located between Campeche and Merida, also have their own commercial interests to consider, so teleportation between the two cities is prohibited. The increase in transportation costs will increase the price of goods, but the witches who are qualified to make decisions either can benefit from it or have a good income and do not care about the rising prices at all. Because he was in a hurry to get to Campeche, Count Marseille drove almost day and night. When the three horses in the carriage died of exhaustion one after another, he tore up the collection of poems, disassembled it and reshaped it into paper horses, deviated from the main road, and continued to move forward in the wasteland. "It's a very convenient ability." Selina said.
