Chapter 694: Conflict of Authority

Seeing this, Debra Sank put down the last worry in her heart, smiled lightly at Li Rui and nodded, took out a bottle of potion and poured it into Carol Noah's mouth.

Although it didn't hit the target at all, after burning her life for so long, she would probably have to lie in bed for more than half a year, and she might even hurt her origin.

If a potion can be given to her as soon as possible, her recovery time can be saved at least in half, and she should not suffer any hidden injuries.

Carol Noah swallowed the potion obediently, looked into the beautiful dark gray eyes, and murmured in a low voice: "Thank you, Lady Debra."

"You, you really need to change your impulsive personality. Fortunately, Lord Vladimir is strong and broad-minded, otherwise you would have caused a big disaster this time! Why don't you apologize to Lord Vladimir quickly?"

Debra Sank shook her head helplessly and scolded sternly.

Knowing that she was admonishing Carol Noah and putting a high hat on herself, Li Rui curled his lips noncommittally and walked out of the huge pit.

"Yes...I'm sorry..."

A frustrated and crying voice came from behind. Li Rui waved his hands without looking back, too lazy to tease such an idiot any more.

"Please wait a moment, Your Excellency Vladimir."

Seeing him leaving, Debra Sank quickly stopped him.

"Is something wrong?"

"I would like to ask if you are targeting the [God of Pain and Torment] - Menechka?"

His eyes moved slightly, knowing that these forces had seen clues from his actions, Li Rui no longer tried to hide it, and nodded cheerfully.

"That's right."

"Can I take the liberty to ask why?"

Debra Sank asked tentatively.

Um?

Li Rui rolled his eyes and said with a half-serious smile: "A companion in the association had a "little" conflict with Menechka. I was entrusted by him to cut off Menechka's extension to the earth. The tentacles of the plane.”

[Immortal True Dragon] Li Rui robbed the original divinity of Meneheka. It was indeed a "little" conflict!

It is true that I, Vladimir, was entrusted by him to do things!

I didn't lie a word!

"Entrusted by others?"

Debra Sank looked ugly and was speechless for a long time.

"Well, so there is no conflict of interest between us. You don't need to pay too much attention to me. Just treat me as if I don't exist."

The gloomy young man smiled slightly, touched his chest and saluted.

By the time Debra Sank reacted, he had collapsed into a white light and disappeared.

"I was entrusted by him..."

Debra Sank stood there blankly, chewing on Li Rui's words when he left, her heart growing colder.

"Lady Debra, who...is he?"

Carol Noah struggled to crawl out of the pit, clutching his aching chest, and moved to Debra's side.

"You don't need to understand, just stay away next time you see him."

Debra Sank let out a breath and looked at the place where Li Rui disappeared, with solemn and distant eyes.

………………

"It turns out that he was entrusted by someone..."

In the [Magic Council] branch, the old man in black robe sat on a large and simple high-backed chair, deep in thought.

"Teacher, I suspect that his so-called companion is a god!"

Debra Sank sat opposite the old man in black robe and said seriously.

"Why such speculation?"

"What he was talking about was [conflict]! Not [friction]! Mortal beings are not qualified to have [conflict] with evil gods. Only gods from adjacent realms competing for authority would use such words."

Debra Sank paused, considered it, and continued.

"It is impossible for a high-level transcendent like Vladimir not to know the subtle ambiguity here. Moreover, it can make him determined to become an enemy of an evil god and intervene in disputes that have nothing to do with him. Except for another god , I really can’t think of anyone else who would let him take such a huge risk!”

After hearing the student's analysis, the old man in black robe nodded approvingly.

"Indeed, what you said makes sense, but everything is based on the premise that Vladimir did not lie."

"His emotional aura did not fluctuate at that time, and the possibility of lying was very small."

"His secret technique can completely annihilate even psychic fluctuations. It is too easy to cover up one's own emotions."

Debra Sank fell silent, feeling that what the teacher said did make sense.

"Of course, whether he lied or not, we can be sure of one thing."

The old man in black robe waved a slender magic wand with excitement on his face.

"There are people in the [Secret Banquet Association] who are at the same level as him, or even stronger. They may contain a new world that we have never discovered before!"

"Furthermore, judging from this guy's current actions, his behavior is low-key and restrained. He is not a chaotic and evil extraordinary person. For the time being, we can regard the [Secret Banquet Association] as a neutral or even friendly force."

"Find them, try to contact and guide them, and drag the [Secret Banquet Association] from behind the scenes to the front. In these troubled times that have never happened in thousands of years, we need to unite all the forces that can be united!"

The old but bright eyes of the black-robed old man were full of excitement and curiosity, like a child who discovered a new toy.

"By the way, Debra, after these few close encounters, what kind of existence do you think Vladimir is?"

After hearing the teacher's question, Debra Sank was silent for a moment, and her brows gradually tightened.

"He... is a very strange and contradictory existence."

"He was born with an elegant and noble temperament, but there was always an indescribable childishness in his heart."

"Childish?"

The old man in black robe blinked in surprise. He didn't expect Debra to comment like this.

"Well, he acts on impulse, his intuition is greater than his reason. Sometimes he is very stingy, but once he talks about it, he behaves gracefully. I thought that Carol Noah had offended his dignity this time, and he had to pay a huge price to save her, but he just let her go..."

Debra Sank held her chin with a dazed look.

"I feel that his personality is not as gloomy as his appearance. Instead, he is quite sunny and his mind and temperament are far beyond ordinary people..."

Listening to the student's mumbling, the old man in black robe narrowed his eyes, and his clear eyes were like the moon covered by dark clouds, hazy and mysterious.

………………

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this flight..."

As the broadcast sounded, the door of the plane opened, and a handsome white-haired boy took the lead to step onto the bridge and walked into the airport.

After passing the customs smoothly, the boy walked out of the airport, got on a taxi, and drove towards the city.

Looking out the window at the completely different style of European architecture, Li Rui was lost in thought.

I didn't expect that guy to come here. Did he not dare to step into the [Shenzhou Boundary] of [China]?

Or was it that their target was not me from the beginning?
