Embers Ad Infinitum - Chapter 441
  The highest arena, the security check area of ​​the noble box.
    Long Yuehong once again followed the disguised Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian as a servant and bodyguard.
    Seeing that the entrance was still some distance away, and there was no one around, he suddenly remembered a question and hurriedly said in a low voice:
    “Group leader, I think we have overlooked one thing.”
    “What?” Jiang Baimian stopped. Pretend to be there and scold the servant.
    Long Yuehong looked around again:
    “Our action plan is missing a very important part, that is, how to evacuate if it fails.
    “You don’t think it will be successful, do you? ”     As the saying goes,
    “
If you do n’t think about winning, you must first think about defeat.” Once things don’t go as expected, there must be corresponding measures. You can’t panic, can’t move blindly, and can’t be caught     with one’s hands.
    Jiang Baimian smiled:
“It must be facing someone. The awakened person who is good at illusion at the level of the’Spirit Corridor’ is surrounded by many nobles and their bodyguards. Do you think we can escape if we fail?
    “Even if Old Ge can enter the arena, he should be affected.”
    “Ah…” Long Yuehong’s face instantly turned pale.
    Shang Jianyao further added:
    “Unlike the previous dealings with the’higher unintentional ones’ and DiMarco, this time we are in the light, the most dangerous enemy is in the dark, and there is no other helper.”
    Long Yuehong’s thoughts were turned, facing Jiang Bai Mianqiang smiled and said:
    “Team leader, you must have already figured out a way, otherwise you won’t be so risky.”
    This has not yet reached the time to fight for life!
    Jiang Baimian nodded gently and said:
    “The method is very simple, as long as you are sure of failure, immediately raise your hands, hold the back of your head, and squat down.”
    “Eh?” Long Yuehong sketched the corresponding picture in her mind.
    The more he thought about it, the more he felt it seemed wrong.
    Shang Jianyao immediately smiled and said:
    “You can still shout out:
    “I surrender! I surrender! “
    …” Long Yuehong finally understood what kind of scene Jiang Baimian just described.
    He asked incredulously:
    “Group leader, are you kidding me?” “
    Jiang white cotton Stern shaking his head:
    ” No, this is the best solution after evaluate trade-offs.
    “Under the situation where the power and the enemy are very different, thinking about escape by mind, skill and experience is too dangerous, and the possibility of success is extremely low.
    “Actually, if it weren’t for this awakener of the’corridor of mind’ who is good at illusion, It’s not impossible to think about it, for example, destroying the building structure under the noble box in advance, such as taking hostages, etc., and so on, and now these can’t be used, because we have no way of distinguishing what is true and what is false. Did not do it, did not succeed in doing it.
    “Compared to resistance that is likely to cause death and injury, surrender may be the best way to save ourselves.”
    ” Yes , but doesn’t this mean that we have given up our life?” Long Yuehong still couldn’t understand.
    “No, no,” Shang Jianyao shook his head and said, “Going to prison is the beginning of the story. At that time, we will say that General Focas asked us to do it, and let people from other forces throw rats.”
    “General Focas .” It took eight lifetimes of bad luck to get to know you.” Jiang Baimian scolded with a smile.
    Seeing nobles passing by and entering the stands after security check, she no longer sells the gates, quickly explained:
    “Did we do anything in the city where the nobles killed them quickly? Except for those who are secretly inclined to’anti-intellectualism’, there shouldn’t be anyone who must let us die. When we are caught, we will quickly explain that we have been killed. The true’priest’ has a deep hatred with the’anti-intellectualism’. In this way, anyone who jumps out to target us is suspected of being a supporter of the’anti-intellectualism’.
    “This is one point, and the more important point is that we are’pangu creatures’. People, when the time comes, there is no need to conceal, just tell them directly, knowing nothing but talking, talking endlessly. After losing the value of intelligence, the company sent someone to make a negotiation. I think they must be happy to use us in exchange for something else.
    “There are a lot of similar things among the big forces. Usually, spies are caught, and the other party hasn’t made any major problems. They will tend to use them for transactions, such as returning to their own people who have been caught.”
    Long Yuehong was stunned. , I didn’t expect that there are such unspoken rules among the big forces.
    But when he thought about it, he thought it was normal.
    As a big power, it naturally has a relatively equal bargaining position.
    “But in this way, aren’t we betraying the company?” Long Yuehong thought of another question.
    Jiang Baimian laughed:
    “Others don’t know, and other big forces don’t understand some of the company’s affairs?
    “In the past few years, the company has not been arrested one or two people on field duties. Where is the entrance of the company? Wilderness. The Rangers and the small forces don’t know that the’First City’ and the’White Knights’ can still be concealed for decades?
    “As for the internal affairs, how many secrets do we know? No, right?
    “And in the investigation of the cause of the destruction of the old world, we have only reached the step of contacting the descendants of Aure, not as much as the’First City’ knows. “
    Long Yuehong probably understood what the group leader meant:
    The problems that he can confess do not harm the company.
    “Therefore, our biggest loss is the things we carry with us, such as the’Fate Orb’, the’Blind Ring’, Wu Meng’s recordings, and Xiao Chong’s boos, which are still acceptable.” Jiang Baimian made it. to sum up.
    “Yes, but…” Long Yuehong still feels that it is not so safe to catch with his hands. “Many of the nobles in the’First City’ believe in’Mandala’ secretly, and are members of the’Desire Most Holy’ sect. I, I
    I’m afraid they will do bad things.” “Then you made a profit?” Shang Jian Yao laughed.
    Then, he showed a solemn expression:
    “Not necessarily, the other party may not be a woman.”
    Long Yuehong shivered inexplicably.
    Jiang Baimian nodded:
    “This is also a situation that needs to be prevented.
    “On the one hand, if we are caught, we immediately declare that we have cooperated with General Focas and helped deal with anti-intellectual education. Flag; on the other hand, Xiaobai had a letter I left for her, explaining two things, one is to go back to the safe house if something is impossible to do, to send a telegram to the company, let them send a representative to negotiate the redemption, and the other is to pass For the remaining contact information, ask a veteran of the’First City’ for help. He has a deep friendship with someone in the company, and most of them dare not release others privately. However, we should still not shirk our safety during the detention period. After all, an excuse And there are many reasons. “
    Hearing this, Long Yuehong
    felt a little relieved. He sighed and said:
    “Group leader, why didn’t you say it earlier, you have to get some letters?” “
    Is this to watch the old world dramas too much?”
    Jiang Baimian smiled and said:
    “With Xiaobai’s temper, otherwise, is she willing to stay outside and be a backup?” “
    ” Too. “Long Yuehong stopped asking more questions, followed Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao to the security checkpoint and passed smoothly.
    …………
    In the noble box, a lot of people have already arrived, but it doesn’t include Ole’s grandson Marcus.
    Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao found their seats and sat down, observing the people around them.
    During this process, Shang Jianyao took out the portable recording device and played the song pretending to be bored.
    All he played were normal Red River songs, and the sound was not too loud, and belonged to the kind that people around could hear but wouldn’t be too noisy.
    This is to allow the owner of the “virtual world” to adapt to the presence of singing and become numb to it.
    In the sound of music, Shang Jian Yao sometimes chatted with Jiang Baimian, and sometimes nodded hello to the nearby nobles.
    After a while, five minutes before the start of the gladiatorial match, Marcus, with light blue eyes and a slightly horizontally developed face, took four bodyguards into the box and walked towards his own bay.
    Like last time, he always smiled and nodded to every nobleman he met, including Shang Jian Yao.
    After watching him sit down, Jiang Baimian estimated the distance and nodded to Shang Jianyao.
    What she meant was that at this distance, there should be no problem with the current volume.
    Shang Jianyao listened to the song for dozens of seconds, pretending that he was not too satisfied with the song, and started a replacement.
    Long Yuehong subconsciously held her breath, and her heartbeat speeded up slightly.
    Once I started to play the song with a small red boo, it really “opened the bow without turning back the arrow”!
    Soon, a cheerful song rang:
    “Dog barking
    , cat meowing
    , bird tweeting,
    “mouse squeaking…” (Note 1)
    The lyrics of nursery rhymes echoed with a bit of funny feeling. I noticed the boy’s boo in the background music.
    “Hush…
    “Hush…
    “Shhh…”
    Some nobles thought the lyrics were funny, and looked at Shang Jian Yao and the others, as if they wanted to ask what the title of the song was.
    Some of them came early, drank a lot of water, and were going to go to the bathroom before the official game, but they stood up.
    “But there is a voice.
    “No one knows
    “How do you call a fox…” In the
    singing, aristocrats walked to the bathroom.
