Chapter 1758 EP1760. The Ancient One and the Mages (Part 1)

"Yes, I have successfully advanced." Looking at the emotional mages in front of him, Gu nodded lightly with a smile on his face, and gave a calm but affirmative response.

Occasionally, he will make jokes, and when he is in a particularly good mood, he will even pretend to be a fool. In Gu Yi's character, there is also a relatively detached side.

However, she has never been a person who likes to show off her own strength or other aspects.

Take this moment for example.

The reason why she gave a positive response was not because she was so excited and wanted to show off to the mages. On a shallow level, she was just telling the truth, but on a deeper level, she actually wanted to dispel the uneasiness in the hearts of the mages and cheer them up.

Yes, Gu Yi is also very aware of what his resignation means to Kama Taj, and he has already predicted how disturbed the mages will be after hearing the news conveyed by Shi Xiaolei. After all, it is an old fritter that has lived for hundreds of years, so it is still possible to see through this bit of human sophistication.

"Then what..." After waiting for a while, Shi Xiaolei came forward to greet Gu Yi when he found a gap: "Master, let's talk, I plan to go out for a while, so I won't disturb you here."

"Yeah." Knowing what Shi Xiaolei had in mind, Gu Yi nodded and pointed in a direction: "Go there, about 700 kilometers away, there is a valley nearly 30 kilometers long, and there are many people gathered in it. Fewer undead creatures."

"Really? Thank you." After thanking him with a smile, Shi Xiaolei soared into the air and flew out in the direction pointed by Gu Yi.

The number of mages brought here by Shi Xiaolei was nearly a hundred.

Although they all respected Gu Yi, it was basically impossible to refuse her invitation, but from Gu Yi's standpoint, it was impossible to keep them all and let them stay by his side to help. After all, the Earth side also needs manpower. If a large number of people are deployed at one time, the defense force on the Earth side will definitely be weakened.

If other evil gods or alien forces take advantage of it...

After working to protect the earth all his life, Gu Yi had already formed an obsession in his heart. From her standpoint, of course she will not ignore the safety of the earth and keep a large number of mages by her side.

At most, there are more than a dozen people.

Most of the remaining people will still ask Shi Xiaolei to bring them back to Earth.

Combined with the fact that Ancient One can't open the portal to the earth casually now, every time she teleports across dimensions, she needs to consume a lot of magic power...

Shi Xiaolei, who is equivalent to a bus driver, has to stay for a while. When Gu Yi finished communicating with the mages and it was time for the mages to go back to Earth, he had to help send them off again.

However, staying for a while does not mean that Shi Xiaolei will always be by Gu Yi's side.

Firstly, to avoid suspicion.

The communication between Ancient One and the mages is regarded as Kama Taj's internal affairs.

Although they have already formed an ally, Shi Xiaolei is not a member of Karma Taj in the final analysis. With his status, it is not suitable for him to stay at the scene all the time and listen to the conversation between Gu Yi and the mages.

Secondly, I don't have that patience either.

In Shi Xiaolei's view, the promotion of Gu Yi to the dimension lord will definitely have a great impact on the mages. The dialogue between them will definitely not end in a short while.

Maybe an hour or two, maybe longer. For Shi Xiaolei, that kind of meeting-like occasion is really not what he likes. Therefore, instead of staying to observe Gu Yi's meeting with the mages, he prefers to go outside and take advantage of this time to practice leveling for himself.

All in all, after getting Gu Yi's advice, Shi Xiaolei headed towards the valley hundreds of miles away without looking back, and single-mindedly cleaned up the remaining servants left by Ximachimo, and devoted himself to his great cause of leveling.

Look at Gu Yi again.

After finishing the initial greetings, Gu Yi led the mages through a forest and arrived at the temporary residence that had just been half built.

Yes, after Shi Xiaolei left with his family, Gu Yi took the twins and the recovered Valkyries away from the dilapidated ruins left by Simachimo's self-destructed lair, and chose another place with better scenery , as his foothold in this territory.

After all, she is not a native demon, and when she chooses a residence for herself, the conditions are naturally different from Simachimo.

Take the simplest example.

Simachimo, who is good at necromancy, prefers to stay in the dark shadows and prefers a damp and cold environment. Gu Yi, who was born as a human, was just the opposite. He liked a more transparent and bright environment, and he preferred places that were relatively dry and free of any miasma.

Just like what you see here.

"The conditions are a bit poor, I hope you don't mind." Came to an open space that had just been cleaned up, Gu Yi smiled apologetically at the mages, and sat down cross-legged on a flat stone.

Apart from the one under Gu Yi, there were many stones of the same size and shape scattered on the ground.

These are all building materials that Gu Yi used magic to repair, and they will be used to build the facility in front of him in the future. But for now, it's a good choice to act as a futon temporarily.

Seeing Gu Yi's actions, the mages followed suit, mobilizing magic to move the scattered stones on the ground to her opposite, forming a semicircular array, and sat down.

"Tea or something~lightnovelpub.net~ Don't count on it, everyone, after all, I just took over this territory a few days ago." Looking at the mages who sat down together, Gu Yi shrugged with a smile: "After a while Time, wait for me to tidy up here, and entertain everyone again. Ladies and gentlemen, you won't mind, right?"

Some shook their heads with a smile, while others said 'it's okay'. The mages expressed no objection one after another, and each of them had a relaxed expression.

The atmosphere was good, and the timing was about the same. Gu Yi nodded with a smile, then put on a more serious expression, and began to say to the crowd: "Since everyone has no objections, let's start. Um... I think you will There should be a lot of people who feel very sudden and don’t understand why I made such a sudden choice. While everyone is here, I will tell you my thoughts first.”

Hearing Gu Yi's words, everyone concentrated and their expressions became serious.

"Probably more than seventy years ago, that is, at the time of World War II, I had already noticed a glimmer of ambiguity. In the years to come, there will be more chaos and intrusions again and again Earth. Although most of them are not beyond my ability, there are also nearly one-tenth of the dangers, which I cannot easily solve."

"So, since then, I've had an idea..."
