Old Clerus? I'm a little familiar with it. Who is that?

The crow's first reaction was a confusion in his mind.

Do I know this person?

Looking at Rose calmly in front of the mysterious bartender, Rose still had the indifferent expression, without any reaction. Well, I can see that she also felt very strange and didn't know...

Ah, I remembered it.

The crow pushed his glasses, and his signature smile appeared on his face. He looked at the mysterious bartender and nodded, looking at everyone tacitly.

Of course I am familiar with it. I am a member of the Thirteen Holy Family, the lord of the Marquis, the master of the Gear City, and the Marquis of the Clers of the Clers.

That is, the consignee of this trip had to deliver the Heart of Elements to his hands before he could take action during this period.

But...he's going to die?

It's human beings who die, but it's not a problem for Kreus to die. The problem is, what does this have to do with me?

The crow looked as usual, looking at the mysterious bartender like a confident person.

Why did he tell me such news that has nothing to do with me? And he even acted like he suffered a big loss?

No, it’s not that he is showing off. It can be seen that he really feels that he has suffered a great loss and thinks that this news is very important to me. Well, he represents the Dark Union and is sincerely showing kindness to me.

The crow squinted his eyes and his brain was running wildly. Within a few seconds, the big and small things that had been in half a month flashed back quickly in his mind.

However, nothing was found.

No, no, the bartender's attitude is not the key, the key is...what is Mi Xin doing, why should she stop it?

The crow slowly turned his gaze to Mi Xin. Mi Xin didn't say a word, her face was gloomy and gloomy.

So, do you also think that Clers is going to die and I have something to do with me? It’s not just you, but the two people around you who come from Clers, have taken it for granted, as if your reaction is normal.

Withdrew his gaze, the crow drooped his head and pondered for a moment, frowned and whispered: "Boss Mi, I think we need to talk."

"It's really necessary." Mi Xin glared at the mysterious bartender angrily, as if he wanted to remember his appearance forever, but the bartender didn't care at all. He fiddled with the bartender equipment on his own, and did not even raise his head, and did not contact Mi Xin's gaze at all. After glaring at him for a few seconds, Mi Xin nodded gently, "Very good, thank you very much."

"Guest, you are too polite."

"Come here, it's time to have a good talk." Mi Xin bit her lips and hesitated for a while, waved her hand and called the crows and the other two to her side, took out a ring and put it on her fingers and turned it around for a few times. A slight ray of light shot out from the ring, turning into a light curtain, covering the few people inside.

"This is a sound insulation barrier improved by local technology. It has a very good effect. Even the first-level energy controller can hide the hearing." Mi Xin covered her mouth and her palm blocked the opening and closing of her lips. "So you can rest assured that as long as you are guarding against someone reading the lips, you don't have to worry about someone eavesdropping on the content of our conversation."

"What the hell is going on?" Although he also imitated Mi Xin's movements to cover his lips and lowered his voice, the crow's attention was always focused on Mi Xin's face, not letting go of a change in his expression, "Kelles..."

"Keres is indeed going to die, and that bartender is not lying about this." Mi Xin's face was no longer a smile, and she was rarely serious and solemn. "For more than ten years, he has been seriously ill and has really been unable to hold on. In the last few years, the main research direction of his and his research team is the subjects related to his illness."

"The elemental heart of this transaction is actually very important to his experiment and is considered the last chance to try. If it succeeds, his life span will last for three or four years. If it fails, he will not be able to hold on for even three months. However, he himself is also ready. Even if he fails, he has the opportunity to study the energy of other worlds in depth and try to integrate cross-world technology. It is also a dying honor."

"That woman with almost no emotional intelligence and only data in her eyes, do you think she is just an ordinary researcher?" Mi Xin pointed to the woman outside the sound insulation barrier. Adelin did not pay attention to the communication here, and still stared at her screen, occasionally typing on the keyboard. "That's too underestimated her. She is one of the three senior researchers of the Klees family and the general leader of biotechnology classification. She has been fully responsible for the treatment research of Klees over the years. It is enough to allow Klees to entrust all the tasks related to her life to her, which is enough to prove her status in Klees' psychology."

"Maryan is not that important, but she is the most trusted servant of Old Clers. The third maid of the Klers family, and the external arrangements for the family's private affairs are all coordinated. There are not many things that can make her come forward in person. If it weren't for the Elemental Heart to be related to Old Clers' life, she wouldn't have run to Kaiton City to wait for us early."

"As for the others, fortunately, the bartender who had first revealed their identity one by one, I can distinguish the purpose of each person, such as the two Steam Mage Barons, they are..."

"Come for you?" The crow subconsciously followed Mi Xin's thoughts.

"It can be said that at least most of the reason is for me. The two families of Eston and Clers have had a hundred years of alliance. Now I move to Clers with such important goods. The Clers even Marian and Adeline have been dispatched. How could the Estons, as their closest allies, sit still and watch?"

"Where is the secret force of the Eun Kleus family?"

"Scattered in various channels, I set up a suspicion array." Mi Xin sighed and whispered, "The Kreus family not only has allies, but also countless enemies in the dark. One old Kreus who can only live for three months is much cute compared to the one who can live for several years, so of course they want to stop me from sending the Heart of the Element. So the Kreus sent a large number of people to all the ways to enter the Gear City to disperse the enemy's attention in other directions."

"It turns out they are the real enemies." The crow squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment, and said thoughtfully, "The pressure from the church is not that great."

"No, when making plans, the church is the most important enemy. Although the church and family tend to cooperate, they would rather see one of the thirteen families fall into a battle for power. As long as there is a flaw in front of them, they will definitely be the first to jump up and snatch the heart of the element. They can also study the energy of other worlds, and it can also lead to the death of old Clers early and make the Klers family mess. After the Klers family is in chaos, the church may be able to replace the Klers family and become the new partner of the Tower of Elements. Oh, their calculations are also very smart. Of course, there are many factions in the church, and some people, such as Cardinal Belmond, tend to cooperate sincerely with the family, but I don't know the factions in the church belong, so I can only regard the entire church as an enemy."

"Well..." The crow's face was as deep as water and nodded slightly. Mi Xin's words were very sincere and reasonable, but for some reason, he always felt that there was something wrong.

However, Mi Xin did not give him time to think too much, and soon continued: "So, your actions in the Steam Capital are really beyond my expectations. I must admit that you have underestimated your abilities before. Duke Nicholas will stand on the side of the Clers family, and I am mentally prepared for this. After all, he and Old Clers have no conflict of interest, and they also hope to see the two sides cooperate smoothly. But I never thought that you would let Cardinal Belmond, who has an unknown position, also make it clear that you would even be willing to come forward in person to mediate with the church. This is an unexpected surprise. With his support, it can save more than half of the trouble. At least the opposition voices from the church can generally be blocked."

"General...so that Baron Chalinger is responsible for the less common opposition voices from the Iron Church?"

"No, with Cardinal Belmond personally, not many people on the church side dare to take action. There is no need to send people to take charge. The remaining main obstacle is the hostile family from the family side. These enemies are indeed very difficult to deal with. After separating a group of suspect soldiers, they were originally planning to forcibly break through the remaining enemies, but you made a temporary decision and cooperated with the church to use the special way of the Orient Express, which is probably completely disrupting the enemy's arrangements. It is too late for them to get on the bus and cause trouble, so they can only watch us leave."

"Well, I understand." The crow felt that he seemed to have found the root of the incongruity. "However, why didn't you tell me this information before? If I had told me before, it could be arranged more cleverly, without even a risk. There is no need to be as nervous as now. There are two forces with unknown intentions to peek around."

"Don't underestimate the penetration ability of other camps. There is no secret that will not be revealed. If our side goes too smoothly, will the suspicious soldiers from other ways not have any effect, but the suspicious soldiers will play the greatest role. At the last moment, we will see the map here and board the Eastern Express and leave, the enemies will realize that they have been fooled. Our side is real. In this way, the suspicious soldiers will be safe and our side is safe. The most important thing is that there is no need to engage in unnecessary battles, leaving enough room for the future."

"Is it...is this?" There is a very convincing reason. Even Rose's expression was relieved. Obviously, she had accepted this explanation. However, Raven was still a little confused, but he did not reveal it, but just asked lightly, "So, the part they both have not been transferred by the suspect soldiers?"

"No, I have already said just now that the two mage barons of the Eston family are supported by Duke Eston. Marquis Clers' special troops have no extra staff. Even Marian and Adeline have taken action personally. For the safety of their son-in-law, Duke Eston must send elite troops to protect the safety of the Elemental Heart."

"Yeah? Is this necessary?" said the crow, meaningfully, "Why do I think it's the opposite? He has the least need to send elite troops?"

"Hehe, if Old Clers had no descendants, Duke Eston would have been the first to attack me, but unfortunately, the old guy had three sons, two of whom were not the Marquis' bloodline, but left by Old Clers' ex-wife. In this case, whoever helped Old Clers get the Heart of Elements is most likely to be called the heir of the Earl's leader, and whoever makes trouble for him will definitely be clear. For the future of his grandson, Duke Eston could only spare no effort to help, haha."

"And you are the help of another prince?"

"No, I can guarantee that neither I have anything to do with them. I am just a means of transportation." Mi Xin shook her wrist in secret and said, "So you can rest assured that the two Barons are almost unlikely to attack me, but will protect my safety with all your heart."

"Well..." The crow nodded slightly and turned his eyes to Cha Linjie in a white suit, "Then this one..."

"Ha, I know you've been wondering why he appeared in the car. You're probably doubting his position. Actually, I've been doubting it. It wasn't until just when you and the two strong men solved the problem privately, that I had a chat with Baron Swin. Our suspicion makes sense. He did come with a mission, but the target is not us, but the two Holy Family Steam Mages."

"ha?"

"First two important figures of the Kreus family suddenly appeared, and then two secret troops of the Holy family came out in full swing. Two spy leaders of one family were also personally on the Orient Express. In addition, I, the focus figure, if you are the cardinal of the Religious Inquisition, can you watch from a distance in the church with peace of mind?"

The crow shook his head hard, of course he couldn't do it.

"So Cha Linjie is here. Although I don't know his specific task, it is very likely that he is just monitoring his own movements to prevent Swin and the others from having other intentions." Mi Xin explained patiently, "Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought only two professional subordinates, and the rest are ordinary entourages."

"Well, I understand." The crow's eyebrows suddenly stretched out and he said with a smile, "I finally found something wrong. Boss Mi, your thinking almost made you go astray."

"whispering sound."

"Tsk tsk, I suddenly understood. I don't care about what you said at all." The crow leaned forward, stared at Mi Xin's eyes, and asked word by word, "I just want to know why that guy told me this kind of news."

"How could I know?" Mi Xin tilted her head and blinked mysteriously. "Maybe he thinks that the crow should be interested in death. After all, you are a crow that symbolizes death and misfortune."

"I am a symbol of love and peace..." The crow's voice stopped abruptly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he was stunned for a long time before he said hatefully, "Hey, damn it, I'm fooled."
