Chapter 730: Lanqi Starts the Fiancée Matching Mode

On the top floor of the Imperial Special Operations Office, there is a circular floor-to-ceiling glass atrium office.

"Mr. Dax, I will never waver in my future work. I will unite closely around the Imperial Special Operations Division with you as the core. I will carry out the orders and prohibitions with unswerving determination."

Lanci assured.

"Neither arrogant nor impetuous, steady and steady."

Dax listened with interest and spoke highly of this young and promising magic engineer.

"It's really reassuring to talk about work with you. I have to say that you and my student Nicholas are very similar in this respect. You two should also become good friends."

Duke Dax praised happily.

The two discussed the development of the empire, Landry's research prospects, and personal aspirations.

Nicholas the Kestrel listened to the side, his expression became a little weird.

He didn't know whether Director Dax was praising people or hurting them.

He actually knew what many people in the empire called him. For example, Naila, the secretary to the principal of St. Creation's Monastery, the woman with prosthetic limbs and eyes, almost shouted the words "Eagle Dog" in front of him.

"Although some people in the empire currently have objections to your research results, I hope you will not be affected."

Dax looked at Lanqi meaningfully,

"Leave it to me to settle those noble nobles who are holding you back. As long as you can contribute to the empire, I will pave the way for you. I don't care about your political stance, your true thoughts, or your private life."

At this moment, his eyes seemed to be able to see many essences through phenomena.

But he won't always doubt Landry like Nicholas did.

A smart boss will pretend to be stupid. This is also a kind of trust in hiring people and not trusting people in doubt.

"I will do my best."

Lan Qi replied firmly.

He was right in guessing that there would be resistance within the empire.

In addition to some conservative people who are afraid of changes in the world, there must also be vampires who are afraid that humans will have sudden and uncontrollable power.

Duke Dax has always been a super radical. He will accomplish anything that is beneficial to the empire at all costs, which is why he can sit in this position.

The two of them almost finished talking.

When parting, Dax patted Ranchi on the shoulder and watched him leave accompanied by Nicholas the Kestrel.

Ranchi and Nicholas Kestrel walked side by side in the corridor on the top floor of the Imperial Special Operations Building, heading towards the elevator.

"Your mental state really makes me feel more and more like you are an agent, but not like one. Duke Dax invited you to have afternoon tea, and you were really full."

Nikolay the Kestrel lamented Lan Qi’s state of mind.

This kind of psychological quality is not like that of ordinary people. There is something wrong in being so calm and composed no matter who he meets.

But he seemed a bit greedy and ate all the snacks sent by the royal family.

"..."

Lan Qi could only laugh naively.

In fact, it was Thalia who saw the snacks and asked to have a taste.

Sensing Thalia's greedy look, Lan Qi really couldn't bear it, so he promised her to give her his body so that she could taste the special afternoon tea served by the royal family of the Kraiju Empire.

As a result, Talia used Lan Qi's body to finish a mouthful of snacks. Knowing the taste, she became even more greedy. The sound of her swallowing saliva echoed in Lan Qi's ears from time to time.

He finally relented and kept compromising to her again and again, letting her have another piece, until there was no more food left on the coffee table and she had eaten it all.

At this point, Thalia was finally satisfied.

Lan Qi now felt that he didn't need to eat lunch and his stomach was full. Thalia had already helped him eat.

"How great. You have improved your work efficiency and I have enjoyed the delicious food. Why don't you leave the eating to me as much as possible in the future and I will help you fill your stomach."

Thalia suggested in Lanci's mind.

"No, it's too weird. Every time you eat it with my body, there's still a little taste of food left in my mouth, like leftover food. Do you know this feeling? It's like chewing wine. …”

Lan Qi spoke to her speechlessly.

"Stop talking!"

Talia interrupted Lan Qi's words. She originally thought it was okay to eat Lan Qi's body, but when he said this, she almost blushed.

Only now did she realize how Lan Qi felt every time after chewing the food and giving control of her body back to Lan Qi!

Lan Qi and Nicholas the Kestrel took the helicopter to the first floor.

Go through the levels.

Once again, we returned to the bustling lobby of the main building of the Imperial Special Operations Department.

The clear blue sky outside is unobstructed.

Stepping out of the door, you will see the magnificent steps. The wide steps extend to the end of the square. Lan Qi slowly walked down the steps, followed closely by Nicholas the Kestrel.

"How about it, Professor Landry, our Imperial Special Operations Division."

Kestrel Nicholas returned the interview.

"I am very satisfied. I am deeply encouraged by Duke Dax's words. I will work harder to live up to his expectations."

Lanci replied.

"Then I'll ask my subordinates to take you back. I still have official duties to attend to, so I won't accompany Professor Landry back to school."

Nicholas the Kestrel nodded.

He would then send Landry back to St. Creation's Monastery, and then he would have to go back to the Imperial Special Operations Office.

"no problem."

Then, a brand new magical vehicle stopped in front of the two of them. Nicholas opened the door for Ranchi. Ranchi gave a slight greeting to Nicholas and got into the car.

The door closed, the magic vehicle started smoothly, and soon disappeared into the streets of the center of Blierda City, blending into the endless flow of traffic.

In the car, the countermeasures officer sitting in the front driver's seat did not dare to talk to the professor in the back seat without authorization.

For now, the other party is his superior.

Red Falcon Nicholas also warned him not to say anything to Professor Landry except polite words.

Lanqi sat in the back seat but didn't care, quietly looking out the window to kill time.

He had a lot of things to consider.

The fiancée was really a problem he had never expected.

Fortunately, there was no rush.

It didn't mean that Landry's beloved would come from the border immediately, but there was a period of preparation time.

First of all, the journey was long, and secondly, the engagement was not a joke. The fiancée's affairs in the northwest border territory of Nick Sassende had to be explained before she could come to the capital to settle down.

According to Duke Dax's explicit and implicit revelations and Lanqi's inference, the plan would be implemented as early as early November.

Therefore, it would be best if the fiancée could be in place by the end of this month. At the same time, Landry needs to show his upright faith in the empire in the near future, make more achievements, and get more recommendations. Then he will have a good chance of making up for his weak qualifications and being selected as the leader of this plan.

Unconsciously, the magic vehicle slowly stopped on the street opposite a building inside the Saint Cremon Monastery.

The driver sergeant got off the car first and went around to the other side to open the door for Landry.

Landry thanked the sergeant for his courtesy and stepped onto the cobblestone road of the monastery illuminated by the midday sun.

Although Nicholas did not follow him, his every move in the short term would probably be under the surveillance of this agent.

Only in the Saint Cremon Monastery would it be difficult for Red Falcon Nicholas and his men to see him.

In order not to reveal any flaws, Landry went straight to his office, the Spert Building in the east of the Saint Cremon Monastery.

This building is obviously much older, it was built decades ago, but the interior has been renovated several times and still looks comfortable. Today, the lower floors are used for small tutor courses, and starting from the seventh floor, it is more of an office area.

Lanqi went up to the eighth floor with ease and came to his office.

The green campus scenery outside the window is in full view, and a comfortable breeze blows in from time to time.

"No matter where you are, you must work hard."

Lanqi only relaxed his eyes a little, sat down at the desk, and began to deal with the piles of letters and handouts.

In this quietness, Lanqi soon immersed himself in the busy teaching and research work.

In the afternoon, several professors visited one after another and had in-depth discussions with Lanqi on academic issues.

Several professors from the School of Magic Engineering have already made appointments with Lanqi. They are all experts in a certain field. If the plan mentioned by Duke Dax comes true, professors from the School of Magic Engineering of Saint Cremorne Abbey and even other departments are likely to be selected as members.

They sat around on the sofa, regardless of age, and from time to time moved between their seats and the small whiteboard in the office to discuss the feasibility of the theory.

Until the sunset, the sky gradually turned red, and the professors ended the brainstorming session with reluctance, and Lanqi sent them away one by one.

After saying goodbye to the professors, Lanqi sorted out the documents, locked the door of the office, and walked out of the Spert Building.

Taking a deep breath of the fragrant autumn air, he seemed to relax.

Lanqi walked aimlessly to an open-air coffee shop in the outer area of ​​St. Clement's Abbey, sat down outside the store, and asked for a cup of mint tea.

The afterglow of the setting sun, the maple trees in the distance, and the wooden table in front of Lanqi reflected similar colors.

The evening breeze was mixed with the fragrance of soil and the clearness of the stream. In the distance, St. Clement's Abbey was covered with colorful trees, and the colorful scenery of autumn was in full view.

Lanqi leaned back in his chair, sipped mint tea, and took out his work log again, like a professor who was aimlessly enjoying his leisure time but couldn't put down his research.

The dusk was getting darker.

There were only a few customers in the coffee shop, most of whom were faculty members of the monastery, who came to take a short break and enjoy a moment of peace.

Dinner time was approaching, and many people had already dispersed, leaving only a few guests walking in the garden or whispering.

Just when Lanqi seemed to be immersed in his own thoughts, a woman in a black dress quietly came to the table behind him and sat down.

She had a good figure, and her black hair was scattered behind her shoulders, shining softly in the sunset.

The arrival of the woman did not seem to alarm Lanqi, he still sat there quietly, staring at the work log in his hand.

And at this moment, the surroundings seemed to be silent.

Whether it was the sound of the autumn wind, the sound of the stream, or the slight crisp knocking sound of the coffee shop, they all disappeared in Lanqi's ears.

The invisible small soundproof barrier quietly unfolded, blocking all the noisy sounds around, leaving only Lanqi and the woman behind him.

Lanqi did nothing, the soundproof barrier was triggered by the magic device carried by the other party.

"You are finally here."

Lanqi did not move his mouth, he had already worn the mind-voicing ring made by Professor Bo Laao for the Great Love Poet.

He picked up the glass and took a sip, seemingly not surprised by the arrival of the woman in the black dress.

"I thought you would be more cautious, Professor Landry Wasington."

The woman in the black dress said coldly.

"This position is quite safe. Isn't it also true that you are willing to show up?"

Lanqi didn't look back at the other person, but the voice was familiar to him.

It was Unity, the female spy of the Allied Forces that he met on the Brillda train that day.

That day she wore a white porcelain mask. Even if she didn't wear a mask today, her appearance must have been disguised.

"..."

Unity, who was in a black dress, didn't speak for the time being.

She picked up the coffee cup by herself.

The other party obviously guessed that she was looking for him, so he deliberately waited for her here. This feeling that everything was expected made her particularly uncomfortable.

She really wanted to find this guy as soon as possible, because according to the intelligence of her colleagues, this guy disguised as a professor had revealed something extremely incredible in the Empire.

Confirming that the other party had been to the Empire Special Operations Department today made Unity determine that this guy was the Empire's hawk dog, the number one hawk dog among hawk dogs.

Even if he had some exchanges with the Allies for unknown purposes, his evil nature was beyond doubt.

While she was thinking.

"When you go to check out later, pay attention to the coffee cups sold in the store. I will hide an invisible video crystal in it. You can find it by sensing the magic power at close range, and buy it together with the coffee cup."

Lanqi suddenly spoke, allowing Unity behind him to hear his words.

"... What's inside?"

Unity remained calm, but her voice was tinged with suspicion.

She didn't need to use magic props. As a well-trained agent, she was good at ventriloquism.

"What you want is the result of my research."

Lanqi told her bluntly.

"Why do you want to give these to me?"

Unity couldn't figure it out for a while.

When she was still thinking about how to make a deal with this man, the other party had already proposed to take the initiative to give her what she wanted?

She was uneasy about completing the task too easily.

"Because this power cannot be owned by the empire alone."

Lanqi answered briefly.

It was difficult for him to explain the concept of "balance of terror" in a few words.

Often people will understand only when the world really changes.

"Then I'll take it."

Unity didn't hesitate much. She walked around the cafe first, found the coffee cup that Landry mentioned, and bought it to prevent other customers from buying it at the time of the conversation.

Indeed.

If there were no allies as competitors, the Empire would not realize the urgency and pay more attention to Landry.

This guy's ambition is really terrible. For his own status and power, he is willing to take the initiative to sell out the Empire.

Unity paid the bill very naturally. When she was about to leave, she heard Landry's voice again.

"Do me a favor."

Lanqi's words made Unity sit back in the seat behind Lanqi again.

"What?"

Unity asked with her back to him with a grim expression.

Professor Landry's research is still in its infancy. If she wants to successfully obtain research-related information, she needs to cooperate with him for a long time. If the other party needs it, she must also put forward the bargaining chips accordingly.

"I need a fiancée, who must be the leader of Niksasende on the Northwest Frontier. It would be best if there is a smart Allied spy who can play this role well. If you are worried, I only want the identity and not the person."

Lanqi said.

"..."

This immediately made Unity silent for ten seconds.

She was analyzing whether this man really had a mission requirement or was simply lustful.

This kind of imperial bureaucratic aura made her more and more disgusted.

After all, according to the other party's strong strength, it would be difficult to guarantee the safety of Allied colleagues if they really lived in the same house.

The black-dressed woman tapped the table with her fingers, as if she was still considering.

Lanqi did not look back at her. At this time, they were strangers who had no communication no matter who saw them.

The sun sank half a point further.

Finally.

"I can't guarantee whether it will succeed, and even if there is an identity, I still need the other party's consent, but I will try my best to help you find a suitable identity, and you must also maintain the identity of Landry and continue to cooperate with me."

Unity said in a deep voice, and then she stood up and left.

In principle, she would never cooperate with people from the Imperial Special Operations Department.

But compared to the cruel frontline, intelligence is also a battlefield that carries the lives of countless people, and she has to make some trade-offs.

One piece of information, one hour, may determine the fate of a division.

Now the situation on the front line makes her sleepless every day, and even the nightmare is that her hometown is engulfed by war, which makes her wake up in cold sweat.

Even a careless dream talk may expose her identity and kill colleagues on the entire line.

She doesn't know when she will die, whether she will die without a body, she is only afraid that her death is worthless.

The intelligence in the mind of the ambitious man behind her is irreplaceable. Collecting his information from other channels is also risky, or even higher. It is not certain how complete it can be obtained after several channels. Seeking intelligence directly from him is undoubtedly a dream option.

After a long time.

On the outdoor seat of the open-air cafe.

"... I seem to have been misunderstood a little bit."

Lanqi felt relieved when he felt that the Allied spies had gone far away, and thought bitterly.

With Unity's reply, he had achieved his goal.

Now he was no longer bothered by his suspicion of Unity.

If everyone thinks he is an imperial lackey, it is a recognition of his acting skills.

If he can fool even his own people, then fooling the enemy is no problem.

He bears all the misunderstandings and carries them.

"Is it possible that you are misunderstood, and a large part of it is your own responsibility."

Talia felt that Unity was not to blame.

If she were Unity, she would find it hard to believe that Lanqi was on the side of the Allies. He acted too professionally.

"Impossible, there must be a loneliness behind the glory. Dean Loren survived like this."

Lanqi denied it immediately.

"Do you want to ask Loren? Why was he questioned at the beginning?"

Talia almost laughed out of anger.

She now had to admit that Loren was really an honest and loyal person. What kind of saint could be so gentle to Lanqi all the time.

"I really asked him when I came out of the Dark Eclipse Demon Realm of the Seventh-Level Shadow World. He just smiled and didn't say anything. This shows that he thinks the same as I do."

Lanqi answered confidently.

"..."

Talia choked.

It seems that Loren really has no objection.

"Call it and go home."

Lanqi put away the work log and pushed the chair back under the iron table.

The comrades on Person's side obviously do not have as large a scale of intelligence as the Allied spies represented by the Kingdom of Canberra. It will take time to contact Person's spies. For this matter of finding a fiancée, Unity should be asked first.

As long as the Allies can get an identity, whether it is a direct person or he asks Talia to change her clothes, it will be smooth sailing.

Although this old Deng may not be able to play the fiancée of the same age as him, full of flaws is equal to no flaws. It is not easy to be questioned if he plays Talia's own foodie characteristics.

"......?"

Talia felt that Lanqi was getting more and more presumptuous.

"Traitor, I may not be willing to be your fiancée."

She muttered in her heart.
