Chapter 1739: Face to Face(1/2)
The little cat read the introduction on the wall several times before finally retracting his head and turning towards the bustling crowd over there.
The business atmosphere here is no worse than the shops outside. In other words, the business here seems to be better than the business outside.
The little white cat seemed to smell something for a moment, raised its nose and smelled, and soon its eyes were fixed on a small stall over there, which was selling some grilled sausages and the like.
.
"Want to eat again?"
The bard had a smile on his face, and his words were full of doting.
The little white cat seemed to want it at first, but then he realized that he seemed to be a little out of control. He shook his head quickly and continued: "Although I have imagined such a scene before, but now...she has really realized it.
I came up with this kind of idea. Forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore, what are you going to do now? Do you want to buy a ticket and get on the bus to have a look?”
The bard smiled again and shook his head slightly. His eyes looked around the rail car station again, watching so many people coming and going here, but the smile on his face gradually faded.
The kitten fell silent now, and it also understood that the bard was thinking about something. Something very important that might even affect the fate of the entire world.
However, this kind of thinking did not last long, because soon, some people wearing uniforms quietly gathered around him.
The bard seemed unaware of the surrounding situation and was still thinking.
But the people around him seemed very nervous, and the leader among them even took a deep breath and walked out and came to the bard.
"Hello."
The person who spoke was none other than Ji Lian.
After receiving the news from the intelligence department, he did not dare to delay for a moment and quickly summoned his most elite agents to Ariel Station and came to the bard.
Now, in addition to him and the ten agents around him, more than a hundred agents have been stationed in the entire rail station. With the maintenance and help of these agents, the crowd around him gradually dispersed, and the original
The station, which seemed very noisy, has gradually become quieter.
The bard's eyes slowly moved to Ji Lian, smiled, and said: "Now you are no longer dressed as adventurers, you are all dressed decently."
Ji Lian took a deep breath again and received such an answer, which meant that the person in front of him was indeed the person they expected.
At that moment, William pulled his collar slightly to make his clothes a little looser. At the same time, he slowly pressed his left arm that was covered by his sleeves, and said slowly: "If you want, we can
You can show your fighting side anytime and anywhere.”
Seeing Cream making combat moves, other agents around him also took action. Some held down their left hands like Cream, some reached into their arms to try to take out something, and some clenched their fists slightly.
The bard seemed to have heard some funny joke. He nodded again and said, "Why are you so nervous? It doesn't matter whether you are nervous or not. You know this. And..."
He turned around and saw that the station that seemed very lively just now had become quiet. He couldn't help but feel a little regretful and said: "I'm used to silence, so sometimes I still like the excitement. We don't have to make things worse."
Without going to all that trouble and letting people get on with their lives, I can just leave quietly and act like I was never here."
Ji Lian's face was full of distrust: "...are you willing to leave?"
Bard: "Of course I am willing, but I think your master is not willing to let me go like this. I think she has many things she wants to talk to me about."
William glanced at the bard, and the little white cat that had just emerged from his cloak was now gone. After a moment of silence, William continued: "According to my opinion, I am determined to
I object to your meeting with the president. It is really too dangerous."
After facing the bard's smile and being silent for a moment, Ji Lian could only sigh helplessly and continued: "But I also know that if you really want to meet, it will be difficult to stop you. So, I
Here’s a warning to you.”
"If you make any dangerous moves during the meeting, even if the entire Ocean City turns into a sea of fire, even if I am shattered into pieces, I will do my best to protect the president. At that time, you will face endless dangers
anger!"
There is no change in expression on the poet's face, and there is always that indifferent smile.
William has seen such a smile many times. As a former teammate, this bard always seemed to be so at ease at all times. His calmness did not seem to give people a sense of security in the past, but
Once he became an enemy, looking at such a smile, Ji Lian found that he could not help but feel ripples of fear in his heart.
It didn't take long for the flow of people at Ariel Station to begin to recover. The people in uniforms who had been deliberately guiding the crowd away just now disappeared in the blink of an eye.
A steady stream of people filled the station that was connected to the entire Mermaid Army Logistics and Transportation Center. As for the "weird" scene that just happened, I believe it won't be long before no one cares.
After all, for people nowadays, time is often money. Instead of caring about what happened here just now, you should be more concerned about whether you will be late, delay your work, or make less money.
Of course, people will not even care that a bard has already boarded an elemental car, and is heading towards the mayor's residence in Ocean City under the supervision of many "guards".

………………
Ariel took a deep breath and tried to act normal.
No, it should be said to be more dignified.
But looking in the mirror, she found that no matter how she wore formal clothes, put on a gorgeous skirt, or combed her hair neatly, she still looked like she lacked a little bit of majesty.
Especially when she understood that she was about to show her majesty in front of a demon king, this feeling became even worse.
"How about... Sister President, I will give you a sword! It will look more majestic with a sword on your waist."
Coco beside him muttered, and walked to the wall at the same time, pointing to the sword used for decoration on it.
Ariel looked at herself in the mirror, shook her head, and said, "What is he wearing?"
Coco held the sword in his hand, and after a slight pause, he said, "It's just an ordinary bard's clothes, a big cloak, a little dirty, and looks very inconspicuous."
Ariel gritted her teeth, tore off her thick skirt, took off her bustle, and said: "Since he behaves so casually, I would be a little discouraged if I dress too beautifully. Whatever! You can do it if you want.
Come on! I’ll still wear my normal clothes! Isn’t it the Demon King? It’s not like I haven’t talked to him before!”
Although Ariel tried hard to cheer herself up, when she said these words, her fists still clenched involuntarily and her whole body was shaking slightly.
Under the insistence of the marquis, Coco finally helped her change into her usual clothes. After Ariel put her hair up and put on the peaked cap again, she looked in and out in the mirror again.
After taking a look and confirming his image, he nodded with relief: "Okay, that's it."
After saying that, Ariel turned around and strode towards the door.
Leaving the room and heading to the conference room, Ariel was surrounded by more armed guards along the way.
The meeting with the Demon King is not a trivial matter. Ariel believes that during the time she was sorting out her clothes, many senior leaders of the mermaid army should have known the information. The upper levels of the entire ocean layer should now be in chaos.
A pot of porridge.
Ariel didn't know what the devil wanted to do when he appeared here, but Ariel believed that once the devil wanted to do something here, all life in this giant ocean city would immediately be devastated.
Therefore, don’t blame Ji Lian, who is in charge of the security, for mobilizing so many people and surrounding the entire mayor’s residence. Not even an ant can get in or out. At the same time, it’s not just Mermaid Song.
All the members have arrived now. Even some warriors and magician soldiers who are not guild members but are usually good at fighting are now here in a hurry, ready to participate in the encirclement and suppression of the Demon King.
……nervous?
When Ariel's eyes passed over a soldier holding a wand in one hand and an elemental gun in the other, she saw beads of sweat rolling down the young soldier's forehead.
As a magic person, this soldier must be able to feel the almost overwhelmingly powerful magic element emanating from the Demon King, right? Under such a huge gap, he has not immediately suffocated or gone crazy. All he can say is
The military quality of the Mermaid Army is not average.
But this doesn't allow people to get rid of the tension... It's not just the soldiers who are nervous, Ariel herself is also nervous. She is so nervous that she even wants to order a retreat immediately, then quickly turns around and jumps on an elemental car as fast as possible.
leave here!
After all, are these soldiers useful?
Are human weapons really useful when facing that demon king?
If it doesn't work, wouldn't it be better to evacuate all the soldiers? This can also prevent the demon king from causing a lot of damage when he becomes angry?
Arriving at the living room, Ariel's eyes naturally fell on Ji Lian, who was guarding the door with a livid face. If it weren't for the persistence of the leader of the intelligence organization, Ariel would have really wanted to destroy the entire mermaid army.
Evacuate, and then go to face the devil alone.
"President, if there is danger, please don't begrudge my life. Please use me as a shield. I have been mentally prepared for this for a long time."
Cream held the door handle and warned Ariel.
Ariel looked at this subordinate's face, and after a long silence, she finally nodded and agreed.
Pushing the door open, the atmosphere in the living room is clearly divided into two sides.
On one side, there were the members of Mermaid Song standing in full formation, standing in every corner of the room, all holding weapons in their hands.
Brad held a heavy elemental gun in his hand, which looked very powerful. His partner Buffy formed a tree shield to guard in front of Brad, only exposing a hole for Brad's
The muzzle of the gun extends.
The two swords at Dak's waist have been unsheathed, and the blades are even resting on his shoulders. As long as there is the slightest mistake, the berserker mode will probably be activated directly.
It's just that Sweet Cheese is not here now, but Ariel believes that the reason why the girl is not here is probably not because of fear, but because of what Dark has done to her.
The couple Suta and Bas are also standing on the other side of the room. The tower shield in Suta's hand and the paladin dress on her body are all the latest and strongest. She holds the sword of the paladin in her hand, ready to judge anytime and anywhere.
.
Her husband Bass stood silently beside her, the magic sword in his hand faintly flashing a black light.
After Margo saw Ariel, Coco and William walking in, she smiled at Ariel. However, the smile on her face was no longer as relaxed and comfortable as usual, but a little forced. As for her
