222: Chapter 7 Departure Preparation_3 222: Chapter 7 Departure Preparation_3 Gongsun Ce had a relaxed expression.
“Yan Qi taught me the method to unseal it, and now I can use it.
If you’re not at ease, you can teach me some sword techniques as a safety net.”
Orianna thought anxiously, you don’t have any talent for close combat.
She knew the young man’s mind was made up, and she also knew she couldn’t stop the resolutions of the tripartite talks.
Being in Morton, Orianna wasn’t even able to do something directly for this distant old friend.
All she could do was send a hurried communication, advising him to prepare early as a form of solace.
“Zero Island is very dangerous, Gongsun Ce.
The number of Impermanence Law Enforcers in Zero Island itself is relatively small, but the elites are no less formidable than the organizations of other countries.
The enemies you’ll face include the Ninja Army of Martial Arts Association, the non-human Concealed Gods, the Time Rain from research facilities, and you might even encounter…
Oh my god, no matter how I think about it…”
Orianna’s speech grew increasingly anxious, and her worries deepened, the formerly majestic Knight was gone in the blink of an eye, replaced by the girl Gongsun Ce was extremely familiar with: sentimental, naive and kind-hearted, full of concerns, and prone to tears at the drop of a hat.
Right now she was immersed in her own emotions, completely forgetting that Gongsun Ce, as a Superpower User, had no idea about any of the forces she mentioned, making the conversation quite the mismatch.
Gongsun Ce asked with a smile, “Are they comparable to Morton’s Knights?”
Orianna immediately returned to her professional demeanor.
She smiled modestly and shook her head, “The Knight Order isn’t suitable for comparison to the forces on Zero Island, my friend.”
The silver-haired young man snapped his fingers, “Mr.
Gongsun here has fought shoulder to shoulder with the Knights, what should I be afraid of?
Relax, Miss Orianna, I won’t lose my life there, I promise to live to see the return to the Capital of the Sky—I’m still waiting to attend your wedding with my big brother.”
The blonde Knight’s face flushed red in an instant.
She raised her voice, “You should not speak such impolite words to a single lady!
I, we haven’t formally defined our relationship yet!”
“Ah yes, yes, my bad.”
Orianna turned her head away in embarrassment and annoyance.
Three years had passed, and the guy was still nonchalant, not a bit serious.
But after hearing these words, she also felt subtly reassured.
She noticed that her old friend had indeed changed, not just in appearance, but in his heart as well.
“Alas, I know you’ll go.” Orianna sighed anxiously, “Someone will tell you everything you need to know later on, I’m too far from you all to really do much to help, so…”
Gongsun Ce interjected, “So you plan to give me some profound advice, due to some factors I should know and shouldn’t know, you won’t explain your advice to me, and for the same reasons I shouldn’t know and can’t know, this advice might work in subtle ways later on.
Now, please state your riddle.”
Orianna stared at him huffily, “Please be quiet, sir!”
The Superpower User obediently closed his mouth.
The Calamity Mage of Creation Realm began to speak in a low and light tone, like an old cartoon character cloaked in a robe, “Zero Island is enveloped in chaotic eddies, many events happen without reason, without premise, and do not conform to the logic of the real world.”
“There’s always misfortune coming at you head-on, and good luck may fall from the sky.
Careful thinking may not be effective, you will encounter inexplicable incidents, and usually their origins are obscure and unclear.
You’ll be puzzled, skeptical, but remember, an unequal trade is still a trade.”
“Spending 100 Gold Coins may only bring back a piece of candy.
But without spending, there won’t be any return.”
Orianna nodded slightly to indicate her message was delivered.
Gongsun Ce took note in his heart and said earnestly, “Thank you for your riddle.”
“I wish it weren’t so, makes me look like a Mage.” Orianna showed a smile to her friend, “Take care, Gongsun Ce.
Send my regards to Morton, and remember to write when you have time.”
“Thanks, Miss Orianna.
Could you please thank the Dawn Knight for me?” the young man ruffled his hair, “Don’t ask why.”
Orianna blinked, deciding not to delve into the details between the two.
Her face enlarged on the screen as she apparently tried to close the communication, but not very successfully.
“Oh, I remember it’s supposed to be this button.” She said with slight embarrassment, “By the way, how is Yuankai doing?
I heard from you that he’s gone a bit off track…
He doesn’t have a small belly now, does he?”
Gongsun Ce struggled to hold back laughter and vaguely answered, “About that, more or less.”
“Oh, the old Mage’s hat!
Please remind him to pay attention to his figure, or I’ll really be angry.”
Orianna’s image disappeared, as she finally managed to cut off the communication.
Gongsun Ce sat back on the sofa and mumbled mischievously, “Person’s gone!”
From behind the bedroom door came the sound of unlocking, and Yuankai walked out gingerly, plopping down next to his junior, almost tipping the silver-haired young man over.
“I almost died.”
When Orianna sees you now, you can remove the “almost.”
“Big brother, Orianna is very optimistic, thinking you just have a bit of a tummy.” The silver-haired young man said earnestly, “I suggest you speed up the weight loss program, or in a short while it will definitely be impossible to hide.”
Yuankai’s expression was one of immense suffering, “Can you please care about yourself first?”
“What do I have to worry about?
I’m on a business trip, as an imperial envoy.” The silver-haired young man stood up, striking a dramatic pose like an actor on stage, “Astutely observing the minutest detail~ Utterly impartial~ To investigate the truth thoroughly, to cleanse Zero Island of all corruption, to restore a bright and orderly world!”
Yuankai clapped repeatedly, “Great!
Responsible!
Truly a man of courage.
Enough idle chat, let’s get ready to depart.”
“Then of course…
wait, what?” Gongsun Ce had a sense of foreboding, “Hold on, when are we departing?”
“Tonight,” said the information broker with a smile.
“When tonight?”
The information broker smiled and repeated, “Tonight.”
“Damn it, big brother, a little support here.”
“My equipment is all too flashy; how can you use it for a secret mission?” Yuankai leaned back against the sofa, “I can help with remote support, go to the lab coat for mission supplies.”
