People are on the Ark, assisting Oma Zi-O

"Small tower?"

Perhaps Chen Huijie's mouth was really blessed today, and whoever he called out would come. Just as Tallulah's name fell to the ground, the crisp voice appeared on the other side of the corridor.

The white-haired Draco caught the Grand Tutor's attention. As one of the three children implicated in one of the most serious cases in the court in the past few decades, the Grand Tutor naturally knew all the information about Tallulah.

Moreover, Draco has caused quite a stir in the political arena of Ursus during this period. Some time ago, Dayan also received the news about the big news initiated by Ursus about Grand Duke Victoria interfering in the internal affairs of Ukraine.

Zhenlong didn't say much about Draco, who could be considered his niece. He just went to bed very late that night. He used the pretext of appreciating the winter moon to get the tutor and the old Qilin to drink a lot of wine, and was almost late for the morning court the next day.

But speaking of it, the three children involved back then seem to have quite deep connections with the Rhodes Island pharmaceutical company, whether it's Tallulah, Chen Huijie, or that...

If we had not investigated the rich background of this pharmaceutical company, we would probably wonder whether this pharmaceutical company has the intention of subverting the Great Yan Kingdom.

To be honest, the current True Dragon also has no offspring. If something unexpected happens and Wei Yanwu is unwilling to return to Baizao to take over, Tallulah and Chen Huijie will be the first-line heirs.

After all, he is the princess's child and is the heir of the true dragon's bloodline. By then, I'm afraid the entire Dayan will be in turmoil again.

Oh, why did I think of this place again? It's true that after years of bouncing around in officialdom, everything I see is inevitably connected to this place. It's an occupational disease, an occupational disease.

Chen Huijie looked in the direction where Tallulah was coming from, but it turned out that there was more than just Tallulah coming.

Fang Zhou and Amiya stood on either side of Tallulah, one on the left and one on the right, like protectors.

So that's someone from Rhodes Island?

The old Taoist priest looked at the two of them carefully, and first looked at Amiya. She could keenly feel that an extremely terrifying power was growing in the little rabbit's body. If this power was allowed to fully grow or awaken, the old Taoist priest didn't know what the situation would be like, but he probably wouldn't be able to deal with it.

Then he looked at Fang Zhou, and the old Taoist priest's deeply furrowed brows showed his attitude.

abyss.

This was the old Taoist priest’s first feeling.

Looking directly at the Ark was like looking into a bottomless abyss. Especially when she met its eyes, she could feel some dark thoughts that usually did not appear in her heart seemed to be stirring. It was like...

Like a demon.

This terrifying thought made the old Taoist priest feel a little absurd. How could those guys appear here? Wait, could it be that Rhodes Island has mastered the technology to manufacture internal guards in Ursus? But this man in front of him...

There were no protective suits or life-support devices, and they didn't look like the kind of people who transformed themselves into demons. Could it be that Rhodes Island's research on demons had surpassed Ursus?

Thoughts like these that had no clear purpose made many people focus their attention on Fang Zhou and Amiya. When the three of them came to Chen Huijie, they greeted Wei Yanwu, Wen Yue, the Grand Tutor, and the Old Taoist Priest before looking at Chen Huijie.

"Doctor, and Amiya, I didn't expect you to come too."

Chen Huijie was in a happy mood. Although she did not like to make the farewell so grand and have so many people see her off, when she left a place, there were so many people willing to see her off, which meant that she was quite popular in that place, which was naturally a happy thing.

"Officer Chen is leaving Longmen, so naturally we have to come and see you off. Rhodes Island has received a lot of care from Officer Chen over the past two months. This is a small gift from the Doctor and I, so you must accept it."

Amiya also specially prepared a gift for Chen Huijie. In the small paper bag were some cute little cakes and a bunny doll. Judging from the packaging of the cakes, they should have been made by Amiya herself.

"Those little cakes were originally made for me by Amiya. After I heard you were leaving, Amiya didn't have time to make new ones, so I could only bring these to you. I didn't get to eat them, so remember to write me a review after you finish eating them."

"Doctor!"

Amiya tugged at Fang Zhou's sleeve a little embarrassedly, but this joke made the slightly stagnant atmosphere at the scene relax a little. Then Fang Zhou took out a bracelet, and the three blood-red rubies on it attracted the attention of the old Taoist priest.

"This bracelet is a token of my appreciation. Please accept it. Remember to carry it with you. Oh, it's nothing special, but I polished these three gemstones myself and added some special ingredients to them. It can provide you with unexpected help in critical moments."

As if noticing that the second half of the sentence was a little ambiguous, Fang Zhou explained it, and this made the old Taoist priest even more curious about the three rubies. Even the Grand Tutor and Wei Yanwu were attracted to it.

"Thank you, I will keep it well."

"Master Taifu, a convoy has been detected approaching from the west. The signal coming from the opposite side is from Ursus."

"Ursus?"

The Taifu stroked his beard. He didn't know why an Ursus convoy appeared near Longmen at this time.

"It's Count Rostov's convoy."

Wei Yanwu glanced at the Taifu and answered him.

"Count Rostov? The recently appointed mayor of Chernobyl?"

When saying this, the Grand Tutor glanced at Tallulah intentionally or unintentionally, causing the latter to smile a little embarrassedly. After all, she had made an indelible contribution to Count Rostov becoming the new mayor of Chernobog.

"Yes, about a month ago, Count Rostov sent me a letter asking him to take his family to Longmen for sightseeing. Chernobog used to be a city adjacent to Longmen, and even after the relocation, it is still located to the north of Longmen. The diplomatic relations between the two countries are relatively sensitive.

The relationship between the previous mayor of Chernobyl, Baron Boris, and Longmen has always been a wait-and-see, neutral one. After he stepped down and the new mayor took office, I also intended to bring the two cities closer. It also coincided with the weakening of the military aristocracy within Ursus. Now is a good time to stabilize the turbulent relationship between the two countries and make steady progress.

Perhaps because he was facing his former teacher, Wei Yanwu's answer was quite detailed and regular. The Taifu nodded when he heard it, agreeing with his idea.

The turmoil caused by the Battle of the Four Emperors has not yet completely dissipated across the entire Terra continent, and the aftermath of the destruction of Gaul still echoes on this land.

At this time, if we can establish friendly relations with Ursus, which has cooled down a little, and strengthen cooperation between the two countries, it will be very beneficial to the future of Da Yan.

And it was during this conversation that the Ursus convoy successfully passed the inspection and entered the gate.

As they just stepped into this mobile city and passed by everyone, an excited figure could no longer control himself. He leaned out of the car window, looked in the direction of the Ark and shouted loudly.

"Ark! Ark! I'm here!"

"???"

Suddenly, question marks appeared in the heads of everyone present except Fang Zhou and Amiya.

Chapter 318: Girls Don’t Stay Home When They Grow Up

"ark!"

The white bear with red and blue heterochromatic eyes waved his arms and looked at Fang Zhou standing there happily.

Seeing Natalia's excited smile, Fang Zhou also smiled and waved his hand as a response to her.

"Natalia, I've already told you that you are my daughter. You must at least maintain the dignity of a noble when facing others."

Natalia's self-willed behavior obviously caused dissatisfaction from her father in the car, but the white bear girl obviously didn't care. She just continued to stare at Fang Zhou standing there with a dazed look.

"Ugh."

Girls can't be kept at home when they grow up. She is so young and has been seduced by a man from another place and has become like this. Vadim doesn't dare to imagine what she will become if she grows up a little more.

"Oh, that's all. Look at the way you look. If your daughter is happy, just let her go."

Lady Galina is not only a countess, but also the wife of the mayor of Chernobog, an important industrial city in southern Ursus. Because her family has been doing well recently, she has become more relaxed with Natalia.

She herself is not a pedantic aristocratic parent. If her daughter has someone she likes, then she should let her pursue him. A girl's youth is only a few years long. If she has any regrets during this period, it will be a scar for her whole life.

"Go away, you just gossip around and don't care. Look at that Fang Zhou, does he look like a decent man? He's surrounded by beautiful women, he doesn't look like a good man."

"Father!"

Obviously, Vadim's words drew Natalia's angry glare. Ever since her father became the mayor of Chernobyl and gained more power and got over the initial tension, Natalia could clearly feel that the atmosphere in her family had become visibly relaxed. Some of the rules and regulations that were previously set against her had disappeared, and her father and mother also looked a lot kinder.

This also made the atmosphere between Natalia and her parents more relaxed, and scenes like this became visibly more abundant during this period.

"You, you talk as if there weren't enough girls around you when you were young. If I hadn't acted decisively and taken you down directly, do you think I would be Natalia's mother now? Or would Natalia be this old?"

Oh, it seems like I heard some stories about my father and mother’s youth.

The white bear girl pricked up her ears. Although her eyes were still on the man outside, she also used part of her mind to listen to the conversation between her parents.

"You, why are you saying this? You're bringing up old grudges when you can't win an argument, right?"

"I'm too lazy to care about you."

Seeing that someone was getting anxious, Galina stopped talking about the past and just asked the driver in front to park nearby.

When the vehicle stopped, Count Rostov and his family got out. Natalia ran quickly towards the Ark, but the more she ran, the slower her pace became, because she clearly noticed that the atmosphere over there had become much more serious. And could that dragon ancestor be Mr. Wei Yanwu, the governor of Longmen?

And those, are they soldiers from Yan Country?

Vadim, who was far away, also obviously noticed that the atmosphere was not right. He immediately quickened his pace with his wife, came to Natalia's side, and took her to visit Wei Yanwu and others.

"Governor Wei, I've heard so much about you. Haha, I was thinking of visiting you at the Governor's Mansion, but I didn't expect to see you right after entering the Dragon Gate. What a coincidence. This must be Madam Wen Yue, right? Hello. And everyone else..."

However, when he got closer and saw the situation clearly, Vadim began to feel a sense of sympathy.

He is a border earl. Although he does not have much military power, as an important industrial city close to the Yanwu border, Vadim has made a special note of some of the top figures in the Great Yan court.

The dragon leading this group of people seems to be the current Grand Tutor of Dayan.

Taifu, he is one of the three ministers of Dayan, a first-rank official, and a figure in the core power of Dayan. How could he appear in Longmen at this time?

Could it be that he had missed something important during this period? Had the situation at Longmen changed again?

"Haha, Count Rostov, don't worry about it. This is my country's Grand Tutor. Since you are here only to handle some temporary official business and pick up a few people."

How many people do you want to pick up?

Vadim unconsciously looked at Fang Zhou who was present.

That shouldn't be the case, right? When he sent a letter to Longmen, he also sent one to Rhodes Island, saying he would be visiting during this time. If they were leaving Longmen, they should at least let him and the others know first. Furthermore, when they were near Longmen, they had also sent a text message to Rhodes Island, saying they would board the mobile city at Longmen. They had replied that they would handle the reception, so it didn't look like they were leaving.

"Count Rostov has misunderstood. The Grand Tutor is not here for Rhodes Island. We are here not only to welcome you, your wife, and your daughter, but also to see off a friend. The person the Grand Tutor is taking away is also a friend of Rhodes Island."

Fang Zhou knew that Vadim had misunderstood something, so he explained, and Amiya next to him naturally nodded in agreement.

Natalia, who was standing by, was a little lost in thought as she watched Fang Zhou talking to her father, but then her eyes were drawn to Tallulah and Amiya who were standing beside him.

That Carters girl... is the current CEO of Rhodes Island. Normally, she should be Ark's superior, but judging by the way they interact, it seems Ark is the Carters girl's superior. And that Vayvan is Tallulah, right?

Previously, in the Chernobyl incident, like Sonya, Natalia and Tallulah had met once, but the other party only paid a little attention to her because of her identity at that time, and there was no other intersection between the two.

but……

Seeing Tallulah glance at Fang Zhou from time to time, Natalia's eyes flashed with hostility.

Girls' sixth sense is very accurate. This woman is a competitor.

"Ok?"

Tallulah looked at Natalia with some confusion.

This child is the daughter of Count Rostov. It seems that she has seen this child during the Chernobyl incident. She used her as a hostage at that time. Uh, she seemed to be looking at herself with a hostile look just now. Could it be because of what happened before?

It's understandable. Oh no, this won't affect the relationship between Canaan and Count Rostov, right? New Chernobyl isn't that far from Canaan, considering the distance between cities.

Galina saw the subtle atmosphere between Tallulah and Natalia and couldn't help feeling helpless.

My daughter is still a little impatient. How can she be like this when she just met someone? She should at least sit down and talk with the other party to understand the other party's situation. Otherwise, what if there is a misunderstanding in the end? She must learn from her mother's lesson.

Because all preparations had been completed before the Rostov family arrived, nothing more was said afterwards. The tutor simply nodded to Vadim, Count of Ursus, and after a few polite greetings, he waved his hand to indicate that it was time to leave.

After saying goodbye to Fang Zhou and the others, Chen Huijie, Nian Paopao, Xi Paopao and the others followed the Taifu and Chongyue on their journey to Baizao, the capital of the Great Yan Kingdom.

Watching the group go away, Ark, Amiya, and even Kal'tsit, who was currently in Rhodes Island, all knew that after this battle, irreversible changes would probably occur in the Great Flame Land.

Not to mention anything else, just the twelve scattered alien year beast control dials can change a lot of things. Let's see how much role Chen Huijie can play in this. If everything goes well, Da Yan may no longer have to worry about the troubles of the year in the future development.

However, if the time bomb under the emperor's throne is gone, the royal family of Dayan will probably really become brothers and sisters, entering the true cycle of the emperor's family.

But that is not what Fang Ark and Amiya should worry about. What they should deal with now is the affairs of the Rostov family.

"Count Rostov, nice to meet you."

Wei Yanwu showed enough respect to the Count of Ursus in front of him. Now that the conservatives in Ursus have risen, this is a huge opportunity for both Ursus and Dayan, an opportunity to make the relationship between the two countries move towards a stable and friendly path. The Count of Ursus, who is visiting Longmen for the first time under the current circumstances, is a beginning.

"Nice to meet you, Governor Wei."

Meetings between important figures were always tedious and filled with meaningless small talk, but this connecting plot was not really the place for such conversation. Wei Yanwu also intended to invite Vadim to the Governor's Mansion to speak, but compared to following her father to visit those upper-class places, Natalia really preferred to follow Ark to Rhodes Island.

Vadim looked at his daughter and then at Fang Zhou and others standing there, pinched his upturned mustache and pondered for a moment.

"My apologies, Governor Wei. Normally, on this first visit to Longmen, I should have gone to your residence to discuss the matter. However, I've already informed everyone in Rhodes Island of this itinerary and promised them to pick us up here for sightseeing. After all, that was a promise made in advance. Governor Wei, you're a generous person and shouldn't mind our slightly different itinerary arrangements."

Upon hearing this, Wei Yanwu's expression froze. Being suspicious by nature, he had already regarded Duke Rostov's move as a show of force. Was he trying to take the initiative in the subsequent negotiations on the relationship and exchanges between the two cities?

Wei Yanwu, who has been dealing with politics all his life, instinctively thought so. You can't say that Count Rostov doesn't have such thoughts, but in fact, the Count's main thought now is still about his daughter.

"Haha, that's natural. Since you've all come to Longmen, you can naturally plan your own journey there. Da Yan is a tolerant country, and Longmen is naturally a tolerant city. We won't even tolerate a tourist planning their own journey."

Wei Yanwu said cheerfully, the smile on his face making people feel as comfortable as a spring breeze, but the shrewdness that flashed in his eyes from time to time made people feel a little disconnected.

"It's really kind of you to say that. By the way, since we've just arrived in your precious place, we can't come empty-handed. As a guest, this small gift is our family's token of appreciation for you and Longmen."

Neither Natalia nor Tallulah paid much attention to the subsequent pleasantries. In the end, the two bigwigs ended their conversations, both overt and covert, and then got on their respective vehicles to return.

But before leaving, Mrs. Wen Yue glanced at Tallulah and seemed to want to call her, but after thinking about it, she took back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

The Count of Ursus is still here. Although I don't know whether Ursus already knows about the relationship between Tallulah and my family, I should be cautious in my words and actions now that nothing has been made clear, so as not to affect Tallulah's career.

In this way, Wei Yanwu and his party returned to the Governor's Mansion, while Fang Zhou and others took the Rostov family to Rhodes Island.

Currently, Rhodes Island is no longer docked in the hangar of Longmen. As it has recently finalized its plan to leave, Rhodes Island is now located outside Longmen and maintains a basic connection with the city.
