Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 490 The Product of Failure

"I have no problem," Gongsun Ce told himself, "I am all right. I have enough strength to face all difficult challenges."

Qin Qianbai glanced down: "A Ce, your legs are shaking."

Gongsun Ce slapped his thighs hard, his legs stabilized, and his hands began to tremble.He began to adjust his tie, straightened his hair in front of the mirror, and tried his best to move his tense face. After doing all this, he turned around and asked, "What do you think of me now?"

Rei Shigure covered his face with his hands and couldn't bear to stare: "Have you ever seen anyone sleeping in a suit?"

"I think it should be more formal..."

Gongsun Ce took out the suit he wore when he went out for dinner last time. He was dressed so well that he was only a slick of hair oil away from the elite in the workplace.Qi Luo stood on tiptoe and grabbed her boyfriend's face, and said in a gentle tone: "Gongsun Ce, take off your suit now, take a shower, put on your pajamas, and then go to sleep."

"But I..."

"Listen to me, that's right." Qi Luo's attitude is unquestionable, "It's 11:13 now, go to bed early!"

Gongsun Ce nodded again and again, leaning on the wall like sleepwalking and walked towards the bathroom.The girls all breathed a sigh of relief, Shi Yuling lay down on the sofa, pointed to the second floor and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

"It's Ah Ce who thinks too much." Qin Qianbai said.

Shi Yuling laughed when he heard it: "Hey, can you think more about this? Who wouldn't think wrong if this is changed?"

"Alandia is a straightforward person. I don't think she will mince words to give out erotic hints." Qin Qianbai said seriously, "When she says we sleep together, she really means we sleep together."

At this time, Gongsun Ce managed to get into the bathroom, and Qi Luo whispered, "Should we remind Gongsun Ce..."

Qin Qianbai said sympathetically: "Happy fantasies are always harmless, let the fool indulge in them a little longer."

·
Half an hour later, Gongsun Ce mustered up the courage to push open the door.He changed into summer short-sleeved pajamas, maybe he should have come in in his underwear, he didn't know.In this regard, no matter how far the practice of impermanence has been cultivated, it cannot provide a little help.

"You're here, Ce."

Elandia was waiting for him at the table. She was wearing the plain gray pajamas, the light fabric wrapped around her beautiful figure like a stream of water.She led Gongsun Ce to the bed, and the fair skin under the neckline made people imagine.He knew that the Knight of Dawn could feel it, but he couldn't control his thoughts. All kinds of fantasies from the past were mixed with absurd imagination and reality, so that Gongsun Ce couldn't tell whether he was in a dream or reality.

Elandia went to bed first, and she lifted the quilt halfway and waved to him.Gongsun Ce swallowed loudly, he subconsciously turned off the light, lay down beside the woman, and hugged her gently...

"Good night." Elandia leaned on his shoulder, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

"Good night————Hey, wait a minute!!!"

Gongsun Ce was deeply shocked. At this time, it was difficult for him to have any second emotion besides shock.But the dawn knight really fell asleep. She slept soundly in Gongsun Ce's arms, like a bird returning home after finding its nest.In Gongsun Ce's heart, thousands of troops and horses were galloping past. He subconsciously wanted to raise his voice to wake up the knights.

But at this time, he realized that he was also very tired, so tired that he didn't even have much desire.He rubbed the side of the knight's face in retaliation, and said in a low voice, "You bad woman has been teasing me since four years ago... sleep well."

He fell asleep.

·
Gongsun Ce seldom dreamed since he became psychic. To be on the safe side, he always chose to sleep without dreams.But it was rare for him to dream that night. In the dream, he was wearing black clothes and a cloak, dressed exactly the same as four years ago.He stood in front of an old residential building. The walls of the six-story old building were mottled. Not far to the south of the building was a railway track, and the train rattled as it passed by.

"I really admire you..."

Feeling helpless, Gongsun Ce walked up the green iron ladder on the outside of the residential building, and climbed up the old stairs step by step.He easily found the unit where Elandia lived in when she was a child. Only one of the gray windows was white.Gongsun Ce dug out some old props in his pocket, and opened the lock from the outside with a wire and a piece of paper.The moment he turned over and entered the room, he felt like a thief.

This room is exactly as described by Elandia back then. A small bookcase and a wooden bed are squeezed into the small space. On the desk are a few ugly hand-sewn dolls and several tomes. They were neatly stacked on the floor, and Gongsun Ce guessed that they were unfinished books that could not be put down.Elandia was sitting on the small bed, waving to him as usual.

"Ce, you're here."

"I should have thought that if you can enter the depths of my heart, I can also run into yours..." Gongsun Ce sighed, and at this time the last delusion in his heart disappeared, "I really admire you. Why on earth do you have to come here to talk about something so personal?"

"This is the safest place I can think of." Elandia patted the bed and motioned him to sit down, "I want to discuss the future battle plan with you."

"Hey, it's not fair! When you came to my room, you just looked around and I came to your room, but I can only be a staff officer?" Gongsun Ce protested loudly.

"You can read all the books here." Elandia didn't change her face.

Without saying a word, Gongsun Ce grabbed a thick book from the ground and flipped through a page. His eyes casually glanced at one of the lines: "On July 7, the weather was cloudy. Today Ce made a date invitation for the third time. I I thought he might be interested in me..."

Gongsun Ce closed the book with a bang, and said loudly, "Let's get down to business!"

Elandia smiled: "It is embarrassing for few people to read other people's diaries."

"In front of you, I will always be the stunned young man back then." Gongsun Ce sat down beside her, "What do you want to discuss?"

"The decisive battle with Situ Yi."

Gongsun Ce's expression suddenly became serious: "Say it."

"During my coma, I reviewed the whole story of the kingdom's collapse again and again. From this, I came up with a bad suspicion about Situ Yi's Chaos Theater." Alandia said, "I think that man's The World Creation Method can 'record' everything that happens on the stage."

"...Record?" Gongsun Ce repeated in disbelief, "Do you think he can control all the events on the board in real time?"

"If not, we can't explain why Situ Yi can predict the enemy's opportunity every time." Dawn Knight said, "His Chaos Theater relies on the 'prediction' of other people's actions to gradually control it, but if Situ Yi can't control the overall situation, How can he be sure that his prediction is successful? I can only get one answer: the Theater of Chaos is his stage and also his eyes and ears."

Gongsun Ce remembered when Situ Yi showed the "script" four years ago, and recalled the extremely detailed predictions line by line in the book.At that time, he was too emotional to think about it. Now that he thinks about it, that scene is truly bizarre: Where did Situ Yi get so much detailed information?If he doesn't even know where his opponent is and what he's doing, then his directing can't even begin!
Thinking about it now, I am afraid that part of the script is not "directing the play" but "recording".That man took the events that happened in reality as the beginning of the drama, and then began to gradually weave the drama...Situ Yi at that time may still need the help of Ke Liji, Grey, Yin Luzhu and others, but now he has broken through to create. The pinnacle of the world.Maybe even without the help of others, he can completely control the events on the stage...

Gongsun Ce frowned: "That's troublesome, his theater has no form and form, and we may all be in the play now. If he can record everything in reality, what kind of combat meeting do we have... Ah!" He suddenly realized. "That's why we're here!"

Elandia nodded: "This is not reality, there are only you and me here."

"Excellent. Do the whole plan or negotiate?"

"You and I are not enough to determine the overall situation. That is the task of the think tanks far away in Cangdu. I want to discuss with you the trump card that can be used at critical moments. I don't ask for clever calculations, but for surprise."

"I believe you have an idea."

"We've made a lot of preparations for this..."

Then, Elandia described to him in detail all the support that the officials have prepared for this decisive battle so far.That included Mo Yuankai's situation, a hole card that was far away in the capital, Yan Qi's seal of the third generation, and a preparatory plan related to the capital of the sky.

"...The only combat power that can go to the scene to participate in the battle in person should be everyone on the board. These support, which are set up just in case, may only delay the enemy's actions for a while, and will not have the effect of finalizing the decision."

"No, no, no, no matter how you look at it, this support is far from a delay!" Gongsun Ce was deeply shocked, "The third seal of Guangyan Qi is outrageous to the point of inexplicable, and the plan of the capital of the sky is simply nonsense We are so well prepared that we really need any strategy, so let’s go straight ahead!”

"forever--"

"Don't underestimate the preparations on the other side, I know." Gongsun Ce sighed, "What are you most worried about?"

"Situ Yi's drama." Elandia said, "Four years ago, he used to direct the drama to control our members. Now his power has become stronger, and he still has the legacy of the Netherlight Dragon in his hands. That'control 'The silk thread has to be guarded against."

"We have the martial arts of the young lady."

"Situ Yi will only play this card at the most critical time, and Miss Qin may not be able to make it to the scene at that time." Ailandia pointed out the problem, "To prevent us from getting into a desperate situation while directing the play, we need a card A card that can turn the tide."

Gongsun Ce had a guess: "You mean the Holy Grail?"

"I have a slightly risky plan..."

Ailandia talked about her plan for this weapon in detail, and Gongsun Ce gradually showed a pleasant smile on his face.

"It's a great plan," he said cheerfully. "It's too much for me, and I support it."

Alandia nodded: "We also need a surprise back-up, which must be an unprecedented method that even I and Situ Yi can't think of - I will leave this task to you, Ce."

"Your aura." Gongsun Ce said without thinking, "We can..."

"This was a trump card before the fierce battle in Sound Curtain City, but I'm afraid it won't work now, Ce." Alandia said seriously, "Situ Yi directly set a curse on your aura. I must maintain the current state. , otherwise when I pull away, Situ Yi will probably take this as an opportunity to directly control you."

"Oh shit."

Gongsun Ce swears, and then meditates silently. He reviews his preparations outside the United States one by one in his mind.kingdom?empire?brother?Other superpowers?These are all too obvious.Are there any elements that have been on the table for a long time, but even I have ignored them?Some inconspicuous things... That must be a sign that Situ Yi knows about but doesn't care about...

He thought about it.

"Hey, Elandia." Gongsun Ce scratched his head, "I came up with a bad idea. It's bad. It's a big treason. It's shameless. But I think it really doesn't follow the routine. You have to promise not to scold me first."

"I promise."

Gongsun Ce said his bad idea.

"Strategy!" Elandia's expression was surprisingly similar to Orianna's at this time.

Gongsun Ce raised his hands: "You promised."

"This is too much..." Dawn Knight slowly shook his head, "You always surprise me. I want to object, but I can't find a reason to refute."

"Then we adopt?" Gongsun Ce said seriously, "I promise that I will not disappoint everyone."

The Dawn Knight could see his determination, and she made up her mind.

"We take it," she said, "and that's it."

Gongsun Ce put his arms around her shoulders.They snuggled up against the yellowed wall of the old house.

"There is one last question." Gongsun Ce said, "How can we ensure that all these preparations will not be 'recorded' by Situ Yi's script after we wake up?"

"I have come up with a countermeasure." Alandia was confident. "If we ourselves don't know our plan, then it will be impossible for Situ Yi to make predictions."

Gongsun Ce suddenly realized.This is the method Situ Yi used four years ago, and now he just repays him in his own way.

They sealed the memory of tonight and placed it in each other's hearts.

·
The next day, early morning.

Gongsun Ce woke up very early that day. He opened his eyes drowsily and was doubly shocked by the female knight in his arms.He was confused for a while before he remembered what happened last night.A nasty prank led by Miss Knight.

"Elandia." Gongsun Ce looked gloomy, "You really really really went too far this time."

"Did you sleep well?" Elandia opened her eyes.

"It sucks." Gongsun Ce said.He reluctantly added: "Okay, I slept well. But Elandia, my endurance is limited. If it weren't for this situation, I would have taken the risk, do you understand?"

"I understand." Dawn Knight remained calm as usual.Seeing her appearance, Gongsun Ce couldn't get angry, so he hugged her tightly as revenge.

"Alandia, just wait for me. I will never give you a chance to escape after everything is over."

"And now, let's think about the matter at hand first." Dawn Knight blinked.Gongsun Ce vaguely remembered the agreement in the dream last night, what they should have placed in each other's hearts, and the one he kept seems to be related to...

"Holy Grail?"

"It's time to recast the Holy Grail."

Ten minutes later, Gongsun Ce returned to the Great Rift Valley of Ronggu City, dived into the silent fire, and took out his spoils.

The holy grail of filth, the creation weapon left by the red mage, is always used as fuel to supplement the nirvana because of its incompatibility with him.Gongsun Ce looked at the many bump marks on the rim of the cup, and several thoughts of repairing it came to mind.

(Look, I don’t lack any means of killing now, but the battery life is still a bit short. There is still some rainwater from the Blade Rain State on Shiyu Zero, and there are many holy objects at the church headquarters. I can rebuild it into the original The true holy grail in the world—contains the elixir that heals wounds. In battle this can bring the dead back to life.)
(This is a very feasible idea.) Dawn Knight said.Gongsun Ce is familiar with this tone, he sighed: (But still not perfect? ​​Come and talk about your ideas.)
(As a Kingdom man, I'm more familiar with Morton's Holy Grail legend.)
Holy Grail Quest, the story of the knights leaving the royal city to find the almighty Holy Grail for King Morton.Just like those old-fashioned fairy tales, knights often cannot get concrete "results", but they can often find good qualities such as friendship, love, and enlightenment in return.

Dawn Knight revealed: (I hope you can use friendship, honor, sincerity and other beautiful qualities as materials to restore the Holy Grail.)
(This is useless.) Gongsun Ce frowned, (The foundation of this thing is too dark, and Master Chi's greed has soaked it. It is already very difficult to turn this greed into a good medicine. It is too difficult to force the wishing machine. A conflict of minds could well destroy the Grail.)
(Large chance of failure.) Dawn Rider agrees, (But might as well give it a try.)
(Why? It's part of the plan?)
Gongsun Ce heard a complicated laugh without any surprise.He looked at the holy grail in his hand, and said to himself: "Miss Knight has high hopes for you."

While pondering the story of the Holy Grail of the Kingdom, he started a new job.With previous forging experience several times, there is no pressure in the restoration process this time.He looks at the Holy Grail from the perspective of memes, and carefully burns away pure negative thoughts such as poison and corrosion.The part about greed is like a mass of red gold. Gongsun Ce carefully guides the transformation of greed into the desire to realize the wish, turning the red gold into pure gold.

The rest of the process seemed simple. He used white matter to express all kinds of good intentions, and carefully filled the gap in the cup.The legend of the Holy Grail is running in the mind, seeking the wishing machine for the king, a long journey, going through untold hardships, beautiful qualities are the real treasures...

"!"

Gongsun Ce suddenly had a thought. (Don't think!) Can't think.He completely snuffed out that bit of inspiration and concentrated on his work until the roar of the pile driver announced that he was armed.

"Let me just say..." Gongsun Ce was quite frustrated.

The reshaped Holy Grail has no luster at this time. Its luxurious golden cup body looks like weathered brass. What is contained in the cup is no longer the tempting and fragrant blood wine, but transparent and clear water.It has not only lost its characteristics but also its power. The power of the Holy Grail is now greatly reduced.It can indeed make wishes come true, but the range of its ability to make wishes is quite small, at best a little stronger than Douglas's "Magic Wishing Lamp" back then.

This kind of armament is not precious, not to mention that it is everywhere. There are several similar holy objects in the church arsenal.

(...I was eager for quick success.) Dawn Knight said.

"Ailandia, you've been very nervous recently." Gongsun Ce scratched his head, "Don't think about it, let's do it first, let's see if we can reheat it again when we have a chance..."

"A Ce, I'm afraid you don't have that much time."

Qin Qianbai jumped to his side from nowhere and showed him the notification on his phone.

"The latest news from the Meteor City Observatory is that this year's meteor shower in the Bright Light State will be 14 to 17 days ahead of schedule. That is the day of each United Election." Qin Qianbai said, "The decisive battle is about to begin."
