The Awakening of Cannon Fodder

He Yu and Jiang Jiang once discussed the purpose of Angela or the person behind her.

If He Yu and Jiang Jiang hadn't appeared, then the development of this matter would follow the original track: Catherine, who didn't meet He Yu, might die directly in the Blood Moon Forest, and the story after the absence.And Angela, the "protagonist", will continue to circle among the many favored children of heaven, triggering a war that sweeps across the entire continent.

War means chaos, but it also means death.

And death has some inexplicable connection with Jiang Jiang's original priesthood of death.

Let’s assume that there is indeed such a conspiracy, and this conspiracy is also related to Jiang Jiang.In this context, launching a war will cause the loss of hundreds of millions of people, and such a high frequency of mass deaths during this period of time is likely to cause some changes.

Jiang Jiang speculated that the purpose of the person behind it was likely to seize the priesthood of the god of death.

The god of death controls the death of all people, so it is naturally feared by the gods.But if there is a chance, I can be a god of death, or several people can share the godhood of death to strengthen their own strength. I believe that every god will not refuse.

Although this is just the guess of the two, based on Jiang Jiang's understanding of the world and the gods, the possibility is very high.

But now, Catherine appeared and attracted Angela's attention, which was obviously beyond everyone's expectations.He Yu also saw an opportunity to temporarily postpone the war: Angela's suitors, as the pride of heaven in various countries, have strong combat power and the aspirations of the people. It is under their guidance that the war will be in full swing.

But now, because of their departure, there are more minor frictions between countries, and large-scale battles have not yet begun.

Catherine's original plan was to develop unobtrusively on the border, and wait until her strength reached a certain level before she began to intervene in the war.But now, she has gained everyone's attention ahead of time, and the path of low-key development is no longer feasible.

If these people can be kept in the Principality of Morris, for Catherine, it is actually equivalent to gaining time for development.

Of course, He Yu didn't explain the previous part to her.There is no need to let Catherine know about matters related to the gods, because that is not an area she can set foot in. If she knows too much, she will be negatively affected.

But the latter explanation also convinced Catherine.Her goal was originally to hope that the mainland would not continue to be chaotic, but she could achieve this effect by enduring people she didn't like very much. Even if she was reluctant in her heart, Catherine would not refuse.

Although in her opinion, with Angela around, this battle might be inevitable.But before that, it is also important to find time for yourself to develop.

Of course, the most important thing is that Angela has told her that she will stay, and Catherine feels that she cannot change her mind.Originally, because of Angela's excessive attention and enthusiasm for her, those suitors were already very dissatisfied with Catherine. If Angela stayed alone in the Principality of Morris, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Maybe the Principality of Morris will soon be passively caught in the flames of war.

After accepting this matter, Catherine left in a depressed mood.She faintly noticed that He Yu seemed to hope that she could use Angela to achieve her goal.It's not that it's bad, but Catherine couldn't change her mentality to accept it for a while.

After she left, Jiang Jiang, who had been silent all this time, said, "You want her to test Angela?"

"Yeah." He Yu blinked at her, "This Angela...is very interesting."

"Oh? Are you more interesting than me?"

"...No, I think you are more interesting." He Yu picked up the flagon and poured a glass of wine for Jiang Jiang. The wine was poured into the glass and kept tumbling, a delicate flower bloomed on the surface.

This is the famous Adele wine, which is said to have been specially brewed by a magician to please his lover. It is the most popular drink at noble parties and the best choice for young men and women to express their feelings.

Under He Yu's control, that flower was not the same as ordinary wine, it looked more like the one that Jiang Jiang was attached to when she was reborn from Nirvana.The petals are like lotus, layered on top of each other, and arranged in an orderly manner, stretching out from the mouth of the cup, very beautiful.

Satisfied with her desire to survive, Jiang Jiang took a sip from her wine glass and said, "What are you going to do?"

"I have a bold idea." He Yu looked at her.

There was a little smile in Jiang Jiang's eyes, and he turned the wine glass and said, "Do what you want, and say what you need me to do. No matter what, I will always stand by your side."

……

Catherine decided to reveal in private that Angela did not intend to leave, so that others would try to stay without her having to worry about it.

This is the Duke's Mansion after all, she only needs to order, and someone will naturally do these things.So before the dinner was over, these special guests knew the news and began to look for Angela anxiously.

The strange thing is that Angela seems to have disappeared suddenly, and no one at the dinner party saw her.

Although many of her suitors are rivals in love, they are all by her side after all. After a long time, they have become familiar with each other. In order to increase their chances of winning, they have also divided into several small groups.Now that Angela couldn't be found, they got together to discuss and decided to postpone their departure.

After dealing with the local nobles of the Principality of Morris, and getting at least the apparent support of everyone, Catherine breathed a sigh of relief and planned to find a lounge to sit for a while.

But just as she walked into the corridor, a door next to it suddenly opened, and a hand stretched out from inside, grabbed Catherine's hand with lightning speed, and dragged her in.

The fighting instinct of the middle-level fighter's body failed to react in this process!

With a bang, the door closed again.

There were no candles in the lounge, and it was dark. Catherine could only see a vague figure standing in front of her, but she couldn't identify the other party's identity.The warm hand was still on her forearm, and Catherine finally reacted one step later, following the opponent's movements and forcing her over, turned over and pressed the person against the door.

The strange thing is that the person who could drag her in so quickly before did not resist at all, and was obediently restrained by her.

It wasn't until he was pressed against the door that the other party said, "Why are you so rude?"

It's Angela!

Catherine almost restrained the other party in a hugging posture. At this moment, she couldn't help but froze slightly, and her face was burning hot.She let go of her hand, but she didn't back away immediately, but asked in a low voice, "Why did you pull me in?"

No wonder there was no trace of her outside, it turned out that she was hiding in the lounge.

This room can be locked from the inside, so as not to be disturbed, and no one will come here to find someone.

"Are you going to cross the river and tear down the bridge so soon?" Angela leaned against the door panel, not caring about the posture of the two of them at the moment, "You just used me to keep those annoying people in Morris."

"How do you know?" Catherine was startled, still a little guilty.

"I know everything about you." Angela leaned closer, almost whispering into Catherine's ear.

Catherine's face became hot for no reason, she subconsciously backed away a little, and argued, "Even if I don't tell you, they know you want to stay, and they won't leave."

"You are you, and they are them." Angela said bitterly, "You should know that if they stay, they will pester me, and I won't be able to spend more time with you."

Catherine shuddered, and couldn't help rubbing the goosebumps on her arms. The middle-level fighter's body, which was invulnerable to cold and heat, felt a burst of coolness.She immediately came to her senses, stepped back quickly, and distanced herself from Angela, "Why are you playing with me like this?"

Saying this, she felt a real pain and disgust, "My brother, sister and fiance have become your suitors, so you are not satisfied?"

"That was not my intention, Catherine." Angela looked at her and said seriously.

After a long time in the dark, vision will gradually recover.Catherine originally planned to fight back, but for some reason, when she met Angela's eyes, she suddenly felt that Angela was not lying.But with Angela's attitude towards her, Catherine did not believe that she was not deliberately seducing.

If it weren't for He Yu, I would have become like everyone else, blindly taking her as the leader, only seeing her goodness in my eyes, without any suspicion at all.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help frowning, "Then what is your original intention?"

"I just want to be your friend." Angela said innocently.

Catherine was agitated again, she didn't believe Angela's nonsense, but... she looked at Angela, suddenly smiled and nodded, "Okay."

be friends?then do it.

Although Catherine didn't know why Angela wanted to get close to her for no reason, she obviously had other purposes.And he was actually using Angela?Since they also have other purposes, it is just right to use each other.

This reaction was obviously beyond Angela's expectation, but she quickly restrained her surprise, smiled and took Catherine's hand, "Since we are already good friends, then I will give you a present."

"What?" Catherine couldn't keep up with her rhythm.

Angela put her finger on her lips, "shh", and winked at Catherine, "Temporary secret, you will find out tomorrow."

The gift that Angela prepared was far beyond Catherine's expectations, so much so that when she received it the next day, she couldn't believe it: Ever since the door of the Duke's Mansion opened in the morning, people have been coming and applying to become the subordinates of the Duke's Mansion. official.And these people are all fighters and magicians with extraordinary power. There are more than a dozen people in total, including two high-level fighters and one high-level magician.

The addition of these people almost immediately doubled the strength of the Duke's Mansion.

Catherine simply didn't know how to react, what exactly was Angela trying to do?
