Chapter 575 Irony
Gilan noticed the kind gaze of the head of state and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
The way Caesar looked at him, although it also contained deep relief, was different from the way he used to treat his subordinates...
It was more like a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law!
Fortunately, the head of state only glanced at him, then withdrew his gaze and got down to business:
"Although Owena's army has lost its immortality, it has to fire the arrow on the string. They have put almost all their troops on this last move. It will be impossible to retreat now."
"In the next period of time, , a large-scale war will break out. Under our massive counterattack, the Federation will struggle to the death."
As he spoke, Caesar looked deeply and sighed.
“It’s just that the battlefield has been forced to move from the northern and eastern borders to the empire. Several states and dozens of districts will be implicated in the war... All that can be done is to try to move the people and people in these areas The property is being transferred urgently.”
“Gilan,” the red curly-haired young man called out suddenly with his hands behind his back.
Ji Lan lowered his eyes and bowed slightly.
"Lord Caesar, please speak."
"There is one more thing that you need to solve."
The head of state said softly.
“Previously, the three major old god secret sects, the ‘Heavenly Evil Cult’, the ‘Golden Branch of Dawn’ and the ‘Crescent Moon Society’, were driven out of the country after you became chairman of the committee, and have been wreaking havoc in various countries abroad. . Seeing the Owena army breaking through our defense line, they took the opportunity to reach out again, and their traces were discovered again in Kawo Prefecture, Sedeng Prefecture and Luoye Prefecture..."
"These mad believers of the old gods never stop, and they persist like maggots in the tarsal bones. They are especially rampant during times of war."
"I need you to clean them out of the imperial lands, so as not to Influence is not the last one Decisive battle."
Gilan nodded and agreed:
"Yes, Lord Caesar."
"This period is very critical, and you need to work harder. ”
Caesar laughed.
“That’s where the responsibility lies.” Jilan stroked her chest and saluted.
…
…
After saying goodbye to the head of state, Gilan took Torina away from the Sifang Palace, got into the silver car, and drove directly to the Triumph Mansion .
Originally, Gilan was worried that Torina would be bored by the process of handling these official duties, but unexpectedly, the girl was very interested in it all the way, and quietly asked him in the car what official duties he had to handle on weekdays, and how he handled them.
There is nothing to hide, so Jilan simply answered casually while driving.
"...It doesn't sound simple."
Tolina sat in the passenger seat, tilting her head and saying with a smile.
Her eyes showed admiration.
"Compared to you, I, Si Chen, seem to be incompetent. In the past time, I just lived in seclusion in the Black Castle and didn't understand the world at all."
"This is different, Tori. Na."
Gilan shook his head and comforted:
"You are a symbol of the law and part of the operation of this world. Although you have not intervened too much in the world, every ordinary person should be grateful for your efforts... If you hadn't silently absorbed and purified the miasma in the world, people would have gotten sick, gone crazy, and died."
< br>"Suffering has not diminished or disappeared, it is just that you bear it for them where they cannot see it."
"So, compared to me, the Chairman of the Imperial Council, you are greater and more qualified, worthy of being the 'Mother of the World' in this world."
Hearing this, Torina was slightly surprised.
Her eyes narrowed with a smile, she looked tenderly at the young man holding the steering wheel and driving the vehicle, and whispered:
"Am I really that great?"
" Of course.”
Ji Lan was smiling, but her expression was serious.
The girl lowered her head slightly.
“I’m really happy when you say that.”
Tolina murmured in a trance.
"In the past, no matter how well I did, no one praised me... Perhaps in the eyes of other superiors in the land of gods, and even mortals in the world, this is how the 'Mother of the Holy Mother' should be."
"But no one has thought that you were once a human being, and you were a person who was given a mission at birth."
Gilan stopped the car, turned to look at the girl, and said softly.
"This kind of mission is too heavy, and it was imposed on your shoulders without your permission...Thank you for your hard work, Torina."
"..."
< br>The girl looked at him blankly, then silently moved over, hugged Jilan's arm tightly, and rested her little head on his shoulder.
Torina closed her eyes and let out a long breath.
"It's so warm." She whispered. "Let me lean in for a while, okay?"
Jilan hummed and said no more.
There was only silence in the car and the beating of their hearts.
After a while.
"Are we here yet?"
Tolina slowly opened her eyes and asked softly.
Outside the car window is a spacious cement field, with a high-rise building standing in front of it. People are coming and going around, all dressed in formal clothes, many of them men and women in uniform.
Farther away are high walls and sentry posts in the shape of a zigzag.
"We've been here a long time ago." Jilan nodded.
"Then let's go down."
Tolina sat up straight and smiled.
Gilan agreed and took her out of the car.
The two walked through the first-floor lobby of the Triumph Building, took the elevator up, and went straight to the Investigation Committee Hall on the 70th floor.
After entering the chairman's office, Gillan called Maiev and asked her to notify Alevia, Aurora, Weiner and Franco to come over for a meeting.
Soon.
Many people gathered in the office.
When the three ladies, Aleviya, Aurora and even Maiev, saw the black-haired girl in a white dress standing next to Gilan, they were all stunned.
Soon, Aleviya narrowed her eyes.
She first signaled Aurora next to her with her eyes, and then stared at Torina closely with a scrutinizing gaze.
The girl standing next to Gilan gave her a great sense of threat. This kind of threat is not only in terms of strength, but also in another aspect...
In terms of appearance alone, Torina is not stunning, but her temperament is extremely outstanding, very quiet, dignified, and has a kind of Unspeakably holy.
A black hair is braided and tied up, with two strands of hair falling in front of the forehead, which is quite retro and elegant. The white skirt on her body and the white silk on her legs give her a hint of playfulness that only a girl can have.
What’s more important is that the girl clung to Jilan’s side, and the latter did not refuse... This detail clearly shows that the relationship between the two is unusual.
Aleviya took a deep breath, feeling intensely uncomfortable inside. But for some reason, when I saw the pure smile and kind eyes from the other party, I couldn't feel the slightest bit of disgust.
This frustrated her.
Aurora on the side looked downcast, feeling very disappointed.
As a woman, her intuition told her that the girl in front of her might have a very close relationship with Mr. Gillan. Her heart seemed to have lost a piece, it was empty, and she couldn't help but wander away.
Gilan noticed the expressions of Alivia and Aurora. He just sighed secretly and said with a normal expression:
"I just went to the Sifang Palace, and the head of state personally An order was issued stating that the three old god secret sects have resurrected in the empire and need to be eradicated urgently to avoid affecting the situation of the Buao War."
"Mr. Franco, the four of you will convene a meeting for me to mobilize the heads of each group to formulate and implement a detailed eradication plan based on the latest information about the three old god esoteric sects... If you encounter any difficult difficulties, please inform us in time. I, I will take action personally.”
“Okay, Chairman.”
Franco was as calm as ever and nodded solemnly.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Lan chatted with everyone for a while, and then announced the disbandment.
But Alivia and Aurora did not leave, and still stayed in the office. The other people saw this and hurriedly left without saying anything.
Before leaving, Weiner, who had already grown short hair, seemed hesitant to speak, and was dragged out by Franco.
Click.
The door is closed.
The office was quiet.
"Mr. Gillan, who is this?"
Aurora forced a smile, but still asked politely.
Before Gillan could introduce himself, the girl beside him smiled and said:
“I am his wife, Torina Gerald.”
< br>"Wife..." Aurora was stunned on the spot.
Even Aleviya's expression changed slightly and her eyes were full of disbelief.
"When did Mr. Gillan get married..."
Aurora asked hesitantly.
Tolina still smiled and shook her head.
“We are not having a wedding.”
"I see..."
Aurora lowered her head and her voice became smaller and smaller.
At this time, Aleviya clenched her fists, took a deep breath, glared at Gilan and said:
“You have a wife, why didn’t you tell us!”
It seemed like a question, but her tone was quite aggrieved.
"Thankfully, I thought..."
Jilan opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to explain. Torina seemed to see his embarrassment, smiled and said to Alavia:
"This is the plan for sir to bring me here to see you this time. Miss Alavia, Aurora Miss, if you are angry about this, please vent to me. After all, it was me who took away your beloved."
Hearing this, both Aleviya and Aurora were startled. .
But soon, Aurora blushed, and Alavia suddenly felt weak and unable to speak... Looking at Torina's eyes that did not contain any malice, and the holiness exuding from her body The temperament, for some reason, made her sigh in despair.
"Sorry."
At this time, Gilan said softly.
Aurora shook her head. She looked at Gillan, then at Tolina beside her, and smiled:
"Why should Mr. Gillan apologize? You and Tori Miss Na is a perfect match, congratulations to you..."
"The blessing is so hypocritical, I can't say it."
Alevia tilted her head and said calmly.
After a few seconds, she lowered her voice again and muttered:
"Anyway, we haven't officially gotten married yet, I still have a chance..."
"Huh? "Aurora on the side heard it clearly, and immediately turned her head to look, with a surprised look on her face.
Aurora was stunned for a few seconds when she saw Alivia blinking at her.
She is still the Miss Seagull who refuses to admit defeat...
Aurora thought to herself.
However, at this moment, Aurora, for some reason, was ignited by Alivia's inner emotions.
In the past, Aurora had such a kind and gentle personality. Even when faced with her own feelings, she did not dare to reveal them boldly.
Now that Mr. Gillan has a wife, she originally wanted to leave the show sadly, but Miss Aleviya's persistence made her want to muster up courage.
"I...I won't give up either."
Aurora raised her head and said seriously.
Seeing this, Gilan and Torina looked at each other.
…
…
"It can be seen that those two girls like you very much."
On the lawn of an island, Gilan lay there, letting the lush greenery engulf him. Torina lay lazily on his chest and whispered.
Jilan sighed:
“Just friends.”
“Don’t lovers all come from friends?”
Torina tilted her head and smiled.
"We were friends at the beginning."
"..."
Gilan was not sure whether Torina was jealous, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
At this time, the girl thought to herself again:
"Actually, you can accept them."
"Huh?!"
"I don't have any extravagant expectations. I just hope that you can always leave a place for me in your heart." .”
Tolina smiled.
Jilan was stunned for a while and said in a dumbfounded voice:
"But why are you taking off my clothes?"
Tolina did not answer, but smiled and stretched out her index finger to make gestures on Gilan's left chest.
The deep, pitch-black mark of a missing circle cross emerged, deepening again as her index finger slid.
"Of course it is to deepen the imprint..."
Tolina whispered.
Ji Lan was speechless for a moment.
Tolina talks nicely, but her actions always show her attitude.
"Don't think too much, Torina... My heart is small, just big enough to pretend to be one person."
Gilan closed his eyes and let Torina in his presence He said lazily as he continued to carve marks on his body.
Hearing this, Torina suddenly stopped moving.
When Jilan opened his eyes again, he saw the girl sitting up and staring at him with red eyes.
Then, he pursed his lips and smiled.
"Well, then I will live in your heart forever."
Tolina fell into his arms.
Soon, the two of them rolled on the lawn.
It is a great pleasure to use the sky as a quilt and the earth as a bed.
…
…
I don’t know how long has passed.
The sky is already dark.
Gilan and Torina stood on the edge of the island, overlooking the scarlet ocean and waves below.
“This is where the remains of the ‘Goddess of Love’ Alice manifested in the material world after her death?”
The girl asked curiously.
"Yeah." Jilan nodded. "This island is just a small part of it. You can't see the whole thing even if you dive into the bottom of the sea."
He turned to look at the girl and said softly:
"For the next period of time, I need to stay here and go to the 'Nightmare Monument' on the corrupted remains of the sea every day."
"It doesn't matter, I will stay here with you."
To Lena shook her head.
She spread her hands, and an unknown petal flew into her palm, and was gently caught.
“The scenery here is very good and unique. I have never seen it before and I will never get tired of it.”
"That's good."
Gilan smiled.
He took a deep breath, jumped down from the edge of the island, and went straight into the seabed with a splash.
One of the key conditions for the "Leap Ceremony" mentioned by "Sleep Master" is to expel the "Dream of the Lost Asparagus" of the "God of Love", which is the miasma that pervades the world.
Gilan had already guessed this.
That is to clear away all the "nightmare monuments" in the blood sea!
And this also happens to allow him to accumulate a large number of mysterious points to enhance his strength.
‘Soon I will be able to qualitatively change my strength again, and by then, I will reach an unprecedented new height...’
In the dark seabed, Gilan’s eyes are shining.
