Night, Deep Blue Metropolis, Skysea Group headquarters.
"Father, are you looking for me?"
Isabelle walked into the office, looked behind the table, and turned his back to his father.
"Isa, the thing you asked me to do has come to an end, but I need to confirm with you again, are you really ready to become Star Envoy?"
As the office chair slowly turned around, the 'Star Source Cube' in Dorian's hand immediately appeared in front of her.
Seeing this Rubik's Cube, Isabelle's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
But her excitement didn't last long.
After taking a few deep breaths, Isabelle said with firm eyes, "Yes."
Seeing her expression, Dorian understood that there were some words that he no longer needed to say.
Ever since, he put Star Source Cube in his hand on the table and seriously talked about some precautions with Isabelle.
"Okay, since you have already considered it, I respect your choice."
"You should also be able to tell that what is inside is the Elemental type Star Source that I bought specifically for you, named [Absolute Zero]."
"However, although Star Source is available, I am not prepared to let you absorb it immediately."
"Because only if you can pass Wolf's training and get his approval, will I give you this Star Source."
"At the same time, I will also send you to Steam Capital's best Star Envoy Academy after that, so that you can have the opportunity to use this as a springboard to completely enter the inner circle of Seven Great Floating Cities, Star Envoy."
"But what you must note is that once you become Star Envoy, the protections and privileges in Federation that were originally customized for ordinary people will no longer have anything to do with you."
"And as I slowly spread the group's business, the group, and even you in the group, will face unimaginable dangers."
"Even so, do you still want to become Star Envoy?"
If it had been placed not long ago, Isabelle would have rejected it without even thinking about it.
Because she knows exactly what it means to be Star Envoy.
I also understand very well what I have to bear after becoming Star Envoy.
But after experiencing that incident, she already had a definite answer in her heart.
"Don't worry, father, I won't let you down."
"Besides, even if I don't become Star Envoy, won't the things that should come come still come differently?"
"Therefore, instead of praying for the enemy's mercy, I might as well take the opportunity into my own hands."
"Really? It seems that you have indeed grown up after experiencing so much."
"Father, no one stays a child, do they?"
". too."
With that said, Dorian put the Star Source that was placed on the table back into the specially prepared safe.
After Isabelle took a deep look at Star Source, he left the office without looking back.
Because she knew very well that she could only pass the test of Coral Knight·Wolf as soon as possible.
Only then can she completely obtain the Star Source named [Absolute Zero].
Only then can we completely gain the power to protect ourselves in this dangerous world.
After all, she never wanted to experience that terrible feeling of leaving life and death to others again.
At the same time, Ember Base, in the cafeteria.
"Wow! Let me see, let me see, I know you must have brought me gifts!"
Just when Chen Kong, Chen Xing, and Caroline arrived at the canteen of the base.
A soft cheer suddenly sounded.
The next second, Jing Liuli was riding on her pillow with Xingxing printed all over it. Like a purple 'missile', it instantly launched from the corner of the cafeteria, and in a dangerous posture that was almost flying close to the ground, it quickly rushed towards the three people who had just entered the door.
Seeing this scene, the three of them immediately subconsciously took half a step back to avoid being hit by the purple missile, which would kill them on the spot.
Fortunately, this month has passed, and the Star Tool control of Jing Liuli has obviously reached a new level.
She first passed over the heads of the three of them with a gorgeous pull-up, and then circled around them.
With a little eye roll, he swooped down and stopped in front of the Caroline suitcase.
Then she didn't ask Caroline if he wanted to, she just blinked her big eyes and quietly touched the buckle of Caroline's suitcase with her little hands. It was very evil.
Fortunately, her little move did not succeed.
Because when someone stretched out her sinful little hand, he patted it lightly.
Snap!
"It hurts!"
Jing Liuli pouted and looked at Caroline with a dissatisfied look on his face, his eyes aggrieved.
"Caroline, you are too much."
In response, Caroline said unceremoniously, "Isn't it a little more extreme for guys who mess with other people's things?"
Hearing this, Jing Liuli puffed up his chest unconvinced, and the bear pattern on his pajamas immediately trembled.
"What? Didn't I do it openly in front of you? There was no need to move around."
Caroline held his forehead and sighed speechlessly.
Fortunately, Caroline has very rich experience in dealing with childish ghosts.
She didn't argue with Jing Liuli whether she was moving erratically, she squatted down and opened her suitcase on her own initiative, and took out a lovely blue Owl Blindfold.
"Here."
"Wow! It's actually the Deep Blue City limited edition!"
Jing Liuli took this Owl Blindfold, hugged the pillow and started flying around the canteen excitedly.
After a while, she put a blindfold on her head and stopped in front of Caroline and others and spun around a few times.
"Look, look! Do you think I look like Owl Knight on night patrol now?"
As he said that, Jing Liuli punched the air a few times with "ha, ha, ha" in a serious tone.
It's just that her soft fist doesn't have any lethality at all.
But her action was not useless.
Because Caroline, who has always been serious about his words, could not help but be amused by her cute behavior at this moment.
It should be said or not, even though we all grew up together in the base.
But no matter how much time passes, Jing Liuli can always maintain the original happiness, like a child who will never grow up.
However, before Jing Liuli could say anything else, Caroline's peripheral vision suddenly noticed that the long table that was once full of students now only had a few dinner plates left.
So she subconsciously said, "Speaking of which, the canteen is quite deserted right now."
Upon hearing this, Jing Liuli's cute fist-pumping movements stopped abruptly.
Then she hugged her baby pillow tightly and said in a voice that was almost too soft to hear, "Well, because Doctor said that children who fail Final Assessment can no longer stay in the base."
"So except for the twelve people who passed the assessment, the rest were sent out one after another by Doctor shortly after you left."
"Really?"
Hearing the words Final Assessment, Caroline suddenly felt like a world away.
Because during the month of Deep Blue Metropolis.
She has almost forgotten that she is Smart Machine and a member of Ember Organization.
But seeing Jing Liuli becoming depressed, Chen Xing, who had been 'bullying' her in the past, suddenly came over with a gift.
"Give"
"Wow!"
Jing Liuli looked at the Deep Blue Metropolis special snack gift bag in Chen Xing's hand, and his eyes immediately turned into the shape of Xingxing.
Faced with her expression, Chen Xing immediately turned his head and said coldly, "Ahem, don't get me wrong, I just bought this for you when I passed by the snack shop."
Having said that, Jing Liuli rolled his eyes and suddenly, without any preparation, Chen Xing kissed her on the cheek.
And this sudden attack immediately made Chen Xing jump up like an electric shock.
But before Chen Xing could get angry, Jing Liuli's cute little face with baby fat said happily, "Thank you, Xing, Liuli likes you the most!"
"..."
Like, like?!
Looking at Jing Liuli's glowing eyes, Chen Xing opened his mouth, and finally snorted arrogantly and turned his head elsewhere.
And if you take a closer look, you will find that Chen Xing's originally white ears are now a little visibly red, and she is obviously a little embarrassed by the praise.
In response, Jing Liuli's seemingly innocent big eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of cunning.
Hehe, Tiandao taught me a little trick on star shooting, it's so easy to use!
He said that this guy Chen Xing has a cold face and a warm heart.
If you go against her, she will definitely fight you to the death.
But if you follow her, you can coax her easily.
Jing Liuli didn't believe it before.
But looking at it now, what Tiandao said is so right!
And when he thought of Tiandao, Jing Liuli realized that Tiandao, who was inseparable from Caroline in the past, strangely did not go with Caroline today.
"Where is Caroline, Tiandao? Shouldn't he come back with you?"
Chen Kong, who had just put away his luggage, took over and explained to Jing Liuli, "Brother Tian Dao said that he had something to talk to Doctor. Let us come to the cafeteria to help him get food first. He will be here soon."
"That's it!"
Deep inside Ember Base, in the exclusive studio of Doctor.
"Doctor, have you really decided to do this?"
"You must know that once you fail, all you will do is make a wedding dress for others."
Doctor, who was checking the information, heard this, silently put down the tablet in his hand, and asked expressionlessly, "When did you find out?"
Tiandao was half lying on the sofa, with his hands flat on the back of the sofa and looking up at the ceiling above his head.
"That's when you send everyone else out and only the twelve of us are left."
"After all, if you send the twelve of us out, the old foxes outside will only wonder if you have any conspiracy, and will not really go all out to train those Starborn, because they are afraid that they will raise tigers and cause trouble."
"But if you give some away first under the pretext of exchanging benefits, then in the end you pretend that you and the base will perish together."
"Then even those old foxes will never think there is any problem here."
"After all. Ember and you are gone, what else do they have to worry about?"
Doctor was silent for a moment, then looked up at Tiandao who was sitting on the sofa. "Tell me, what are you going to do? I don't think you came here just to show off your intelligence to me."
After hearing this, Tiandao simply stopped pretending.
He put his hands on his knees and stood up vigorously.
Then he looked at Doctor behind the table, his blue eyes revealing unprecedented seriousness and determination.
"Leave the things you originally wanted to Sister Yun to me, and let me help you finish this last thing."
"No."
Without any hesitation, Doctor has always been almost obedient to Tiandao.
At this moment, he rejected Tiandao's proposal without hesitation.
Because he knows very well the position of Yun Meng in his plan.
It's also clear what the outcome will be for her.
So he will never allow Tiandao to replace her.
But just like Doctor has its own persistence and stubbornness.
Tiandao also has it.
"Doctor, you seem to have made a mistake."
"I am not begging you at this moment, but just informing you about this matter."
"..."
Looking at Tiandao who was smiling but with extremely domineering eyes.
Doctor said after a long silence, "Tiandao Siming, do you know what your words mean now?"
"Of course I know"
Tiandao took out the sunglasses from his arms and said nonchalantly, "Isn't it just that once I do this, I will probably not see the sun tomorrow, but what's the big deal?"
"Besides, who can't see tomorrow?"
After finishing his words, Tiandao put on his sunglasses, turned around and walked outside.
"It's agreed, leave the Sister Yun matter to me."
"Wait a minute."
Just when Tiandao was about to walk out of the door, Doctor called out to him.
"Tiandao, you still have two months to consider this matter. I hope you can think it through before making a decision."
In response, Tiandao waved his hand.
"Doctor, when did you think I suddenly decided to do this?"
"Besides, the word 'failure' has never been in my Tiandao Siming dictionary."
Having said that, Tiandao left Doctor's studio without looking back.
Looking at his back, Doctor sighed rarely.
"Heavenly Eye's Future Sight? Tiandao, you really chose a very bad future for yourself."
"But."
Doctor raised his head. At this moment, his Smart Machine face, which should have been known for its rationality, revealed a rare kind of emotional madness.
". If it were you, I have no reason to think you can do it."
"This has nothing to do with reason, but as you said, uniquely human intuition."
"Although it is indeed ridiculous, at this moment, I seem to have really caught the fleeting miraculous tail flame."
"So, Tiandao, if you want to do it, then do it."
"After all, miracles never come to the cold Smart Machine, they only come to emotional humans who also believe in miracles."
"And at this point, I'm far inferior to you."
