Chapter 316 Dreams

Lord Ivan is an old nobleman of the Immortal City. He is now 80 years old. As the older generation who assisted the first emperor, although he no longer holds any position, he still has a great prestige in all nobles and even the entire Immortal City.

In recent months, it is not a secret that foreign forces have appeared on the snow field. Lord Ivan often talks about these news with people he knows. Everyone feels that he is a little restless and often talks about "there is no peace on the snow field."

Some people regard this as the wisdom of the older generation, while others think that he loses courage when he is old and believes that no matter how strong the foreign power is, it cannot defeat the giant cannon on the city wall.

That night, Duke Ivan drank a glass of one-eyed bear galls as usual, and under the servant's service, he prepared to rest, but suddenly felt a strange feeling, as if someone was secretly spying on him.

This feeling made him unable to help but stand up from the bed, scanned around, and even walked to the window and looked out, but found nothing.

He shook his head and laughed secretly that he had become suspicious at some point.

I returned to the bed and lay down again, and just entered my dream as soon as I was next to the pillow.

In the hazy fog, he saw a figure, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt. Finally, he remembered who this was, and tears instantly spread across his cheeks.

"His Majesty!"

He bent down with trembling and hadn't felt so light in decades.

His Majesty he mentioned was not the Emperor Simon III, who was now undermined by the Parliament, but his grandfather, the first emperor Simon I of the Immortal City.

"Ivan, my friend, we haven't seen each other for many years."

The emperor seemed to be laughing, but he couldn't see it in his dream.

"Your Majesty, forty-five years."

Not only the sound, Lord Ivan was shaking his beard. For some reason, he had already realized that he was dreaming, but he was unable to wake up for a long time.

Simon I's voice was very gentle. He only became as cold as steel when facing monsters.

"I don't have much time, I can only tell a long story. Recently, a conspiracy is brewing in the Immortal City, which is related to peace in the city and even the entire snowfield."

Lord Ivan straightened his waist, and his eyes burst out with a majestic aura that had not appeared for many years. He was once the pillar of the Immortal City. The minister who followed Simon I to establish the regime was not an ordinary person.

"What are you referring to?" His attitude was very respectful.

Simon I's face became deeper and his tone gradually became ethereal.

"I can't say it myself, I just hope that at crucial moments, you can make the right choice."

After saying that, his figure began to gradually dissipate.

"No, Your Majesty, please wait, I don't understand, what should I do?"

"You are old, but not confused. Use your wisdom when you were young to think about it."

The dream shattered.

Lord Ivan opened his eyes suddenly, his forehead was filled with sweat. He did not move, staring at the ceiling for a long time, thinking slowly in his heart when he thought of the sudden change of recent situation.

What is the right choice?

There was no one on the street late at night, lacking light, and even the road was not clear.

At this time, a figure suddenly appeared in the corner of the alley.

"hiss--"

Xu Ling gasped for several breaths of cold air, looked at the notes in his hand, and burned them to ashes.

It is not possible to implant illusions in other people's consciousness. Today's dream simulation has been conducted through a series of investigations and jointly discussed by everyone in the group, and presented it in a scene that is most in line with Lord Ivan's way of thinking. Only in this way can his thinking be successfully guided.

The clip that seems to be only a few minutes is actually constructed by dozens of people, and Xu Ling is only responsible for presenting it.

Because there are many details and dialogues in the illusion and he is required to control it very accurately, the consumption of mental power and energy is very large.

"You have to take credit when you go back."

Xu Ling thought about it while walking towards the hotel. On the way, he encountered a police officer who was patrolling the night. He slipped into the wind and walked past the two of them.

The patrolman who was only concerned about stumble and chatting did not realize that they had just passed by an outsider's member of the mission.

When he returned to the hotel, Zhu Talan directly stopped him and asked, "How is it?"

Xu Ling nodded: "No problem, his reaction is consistent with the three preset plan, which is a relatively perfect situation."

"That's good. Thank you for your hard work these days. How many are you here?"

"The eighth one is almost done."

"Well, our people have reconnaissance. Sergei has not been idle recently. He goes around to visit the nobles who are in power. He always brings a good candidate with a powerful God and has no chance to get close to eavesdropping."

Unfortunately, Zhu Talan couldn't stealth the martial arts. Otherwise, he would have eavesdropped on it. No matter who is in this city, no matter how powerful it is, it would be impossible for him to discover him.

"Um."

Xu Ling nodded, "It's a pity that those selected divine candidates who hold important positions are not weak. I can't control them with illusion, otherwise things will go much smoother."

Zhu Talan patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, we are here with our strong strength. We are just making complete preparations when the information is not complete. If it really doesn't work, he may not be able to catch it even if the table is overturned."

Xu Ling nodded and said in a simple and unpretentious manner: "I hope the organization can remember my credit. It would be even better if I had more special approvals."

"Don't worry, you're indispensable."

Zhu Talan directly retracted his hand that was pressing on his shoulder and said with disgust.

However, he could not deny that taking Xu Ling with him this time was a very correct choice. He had a lot of advanced combat power in order to ensure combat power, but most of them were good at head-on combat. The auxiliary ability like stealth was not strong, not even illusions that were not even in martial arts books.

Xu Ling's existence saved the mission a lot of effort. It was a very critical responsibility to contact Simon III and subtly influence the people in the city, and it was all over his head. If things really developed as speculated, this would be a great contribution.

While Sergei and Xu Ling took turns to visit those tasks that had a certain influence in the Immortal City, negotiations between the delegation and the Parliament were also underway.

But as time goes by, both sides gradually discovered that during negotiations, no one seemed to care about the conditions and results. Although no one would give in to the bottom line issue, after all, once it was admitted, it would inevitably be deemed to be demoted in the future, and not many people would care about most of the disposable terms.

A few days later, the group was discussing countermeasures in the room. In fact, due to the special situation and potential enemies, everyone gathered in Zhu Talan's room almost at any time except when they were eating, sleeping, and going out to perform missions. There were too many things to discuss and discuss.

"There are 12 powerful nobles who may be loyal to the royal family. They have influenced 7 people with illusions. The remaining few are either high-level gods or have powerful guards around them, so I can't get close to them."

Xu Ling reported for the last time that if he had "visited" all the asterisks on the list.

"There are enough of these people who hold important positions in Immortal City. If our analysis plays a role in the necessary moments, the possibility of the plan being successful will be much higher."

Chu Xiaojun thought he was blaming himself for not affecting all his goals.

Xu Ling nodded: "Then remember, sir, you will have to approve my military merits when I declare it."

The stern Chu Xiaojun could not have expected that he would just say it and find a testimony. He couldn't help but feel speechless.

At this time, the door of the room was suddenly knocked.

"Hello, General, Lord Sergei has prepared a banquet and sincerely invites you to attend. This is an invitation."

Zhu Talan sent him away and took a look at the invitation.

"Snow Wolf Mansion, 23 Warri Street?"

He immediately remembered where that place was.
