I Live Forever in Memory

Is it "don't regard yourself as the protagonist of the world", Li Lin has already realized this point, but he can't just sit idly by when he gets involved in some things.

"You can go in now." The guard who notified came out and said to Li Lin. The latter entered the mansion and was led to a living room. Crusch and her two important collaborators, Phils and Wei Elheim is there.

The room layout is very simple, unlike Priscilla's way of directly turning the entire first floor into her own bedroom.Crusch was neatly dressed at this time, sitting at one end of the sofa, looking at him with burning eyes.

"Tell me why you came to see me."

Crusch remembered Li Lin. At the king's election meeting, Li Lin, as a commoner, questioned Emilia in public, which made people care. Compared with other people's direct personal attacks, his is still It's not too bad.

"The white whale appeared in the Eastern Plains, and I hope to use your strength to fight against it."

"Moby Dick."

After Li Lin's words fell, Wilhelm, who was standing behind Ku Erxiu, repeated the words in a low voice, his expression became a little scary, and he could feel the murderous aura on his body quickly condensed, which played a certain role in everyone present. The sense of oppressiveness——the name "Sword Demon" is not for nothing.

"Yes." Ignoring the murderous intent, Li Lin continued: "It is an undeniable fact that the white whale appeared on the eastern plain."

"It's as if you've seen it with your own eyes, meow~" said Phils on the side, and Li Lin glanced at him, "I have indeed seen it with my own eyes."

"..."

Like Priscilla and Al, several of them were surprised by the fact that they "saw a beluga whale and came back alive", because most people who encounter a beluga whale have no chance of surviving.With the ultra-long attack range brought by that huge body, even a large business group can't get away from a few people.

"—Qing didn't lie."

Crusch made the following judgment, and the feedback given to her by her guardian was this result.However, she still had a lot of questions, not only her, Wilhelm also wanted to ask him a lot.However, it would be a bit presumptuous for him to open his mouth now.

"If I remember correctly, you are Priscilla's friend." Crusch said, "If that's the case, why did this matter come to me? If Priscilla is the only one who hunts down the white whale, she will definitely reap the rewards." With a lot of prestige, the merchants who have been threatened by the white whale will be grateful to her."

"Prestige is a good thing, but you have to live before you can enjoy it. Everyone knows the power of the white whale. Priscilla can't handle it by herself, and needs other help."

"So Qing found us, so why is Qing so sure that we will join? As Qing said, the power of the white whale has reached the level of 'horror'. No matter whether the crusade is successful or not, I am afraid that a large number of subordinates will be sacrificed. Can you give Is there a reason I have to participate?"

Li Lin smiled when he heard the words, and he looked at Wilhelm beside him, "This... is Mr. Wilhelm Trias, right?"

"...It's me." Seeing that Li Lin didn't call him "Asterea" like everyone else, he also had a little affection for this black-haired boy.After all, he had already decided to give up that name.

"Forgive me...the former sword master died in the battle against the white whale. I think Mr. Wilhelm, as the person who loves that lord the most in the world, must have never let go of his hatred over the years, otherwise You won't be so angry when you heard the word 'Moby Dick' just now..."

"..."

Wilhelm sighed when he heard the words, and bowed slightly, "I was rude just now." He straightened up, and said without evasion: "Day after day, I have never stopped my heart to avenge my beloved."

"Mr. Trias' words are my reasons." Li Lin looked at Crusch again, "I think, as a ruler, Lord Crusch will not ignore his subordinates' persistent wishes."

"..."

"And I also know some information about the white whale. It is the most important thing to be able to successfully hunt down the whale."

"I can confirm that you are not lying, but trusting intelligence and building alliances are two different things, and the huge dangers involved cannot be ignored. Can you tell me why you are so keen on hunting down white whales?"

"..."

This time it was Li Lin's turn to be silent, and he froze for a moment.

Yes, why do I... have to kill the white whale?Is it because it hit me and made me angry?No, even if I don't care about it... My first goal is still the Witch Cult, isn't it?Still unknowingly bound by the plot... The white whale is indeed a threat, but what does it have to do with me?if……

"What are you thinking, sir?" Crusch asked.

Li Lin stood up suddenly, "It's nothing, but that's all I have to say. I don't have a reason, if you don't want to participate, forget it, then there is nothing much to say."

"You are not allowed to be so rude to Master Crusch!" Felice said with narrowed eyes.

"Hehe...So sorry." Li Lin turned and left, and when he was walking through the door, Crusch stopped him.

"Please wait."

She stood up and walked in front of Li Lin who had stopped, and looked straight into his eyes: "Qing is right. We really don't need a reason to crusade against the white whale. Too many soldiers have already been killed by it. Why? It is their duty to take revenge..."

Chapter 045: Before the crusade

When he came out of Crusch's mansion, Li Lin looked up at the blue sky, his mood fluttering with the white clouds.

It has to be said that Crusch's words woke him up, and he didn't need to care about some unnecessary things.As for the white whale crusade this time... In his opinion, it is something that can be done or not.After all, the white whale is nothing, and the manipulator behind it is the troublesome existence.

Walking on the street, Li Lin thought it was no surprise that Crusch would agree to participate, because he didn't mention the Witch Cult to her.The white whale is the public enemy of all candidates, and the Witch Cult is also the same, but in the eyes of others, the incident happened in Mezas Territory, so it is more like Emilia's private matter.

As a candidate, if you can't handle the private affairs of the territory and ask other candidates for help, it will naturally cause contempt and assume that you have given up your candidacy.For this reason, Li Lin does not want to make decisions for Emilia, and he is not the kind of person who "makes decisions for you without your permission for your own good".Just like in the world of giants before, although he thought that Hystria should not be queen, he still asked for her own opinion, and if she was willing to do so, he would fully support her.And he didn't want her to be the queen without asking her opinion like other military cadres.

Going back to the matter of the white whale, too many soldiers were lost in its hands.Crusch's own supporters include a large number of military soldiers, plus an old sword demon who has been persistent for many years, it is impossible for her not to carry out a crusade.This is why Li Lin agreed to participate without giving any reason.Another point is that she is too confident in her own protection, and she is 100% sure that Li Lin is not lying-in fact, in Li Lin's view, any protection has flaws, and Crusch's protection can read the direction of emotional winds, but If you are a master liar, you won't have the slightest mood swings when you lie.These people have the same emotions when they tell a lie and when they tell the truth, so the judgment may not be so absolutely accurate.

In Li Lin's opinion, Priscilla and Crusch are not enough.He stopped in his tracks and arrived at his destination - the Astrea family.

Sure enough, it was safest to have the power of Sword Master Reinhardt. He asked the guards at the gate to report, but it turned out that the Sword Master was out and not in the capital.Li Lin asked where he went out, but the guards only knew that they were going to deal with the World of Warcraft incident, but they didn't know where they went.

Obviously came early but still not here...

Li Lin has a feeling of "imperial appointment". If the Juggernaut is here, many problems can be solved easily, but he just isn't there.In that case, only Anastasia was left.After all, it is useless to find Felut. The latter is a candidate in name, but in fact he has no rights at all, and he cannot mobilize any troops.This means that Reinhardt is a good young man. If he is a black-bellied man, then Felut is just a pawn in his hand.

It stands to reason that the core existence of this matter is Emilia, not to mention the white whale, but to say that the Witch Cult will attack her and Roswaal's mansion, she is undoubtedly the number one key person.However, Li Lin didn't want to tell her about this matter. With her character, if she knew that she might run back immediately, it would undoubtedly interfere with some things.

She said before that she was going back today, so in order not to interfere with her and Nayue Subaru, Li Lin immediately wrote a letter and sent it to the hotel where she was staying, saying that she was invited to talk the day after tomorrow—and drag her here for another two days .

In Anastasia's words, the merchant class she represents hates the white whale no less than the military. It is impossible to count how many large caravans have been attacked by it and lost everything.Therefore, after Li Lin approached her, she heard that both Priscilla and Crusch participated in this battle, and she did not hesitate to say that she would also participate.

Maybe she doesn't trust Li Lin very much, but Priscilla and Crusch are there to endorse, so she has no reason to doubt it.And her "Iron Fang" mercenary group is also quite strong, and most of its members are composed of demihumans.Captain Ricardo is also very powerful, and he can also create his own "resonance wave", a trick similar to air cannons, which is also very clever.

There was no passionate negotiation process, and the time of both parties was precious. Afterwards, Li Lin acted as an intermediary to initiate the three-party talks, discussing specific combat plans and assigning manpower.
