Chapter 2983: The Unrest in Udinese (Ⅱ)

Listening to Qiao'an relaying Saoirsa's plan, Inanna nodded helplessly: "This is also no way."
"It's a pity that Saoirsa miscalculated. She didn't expect that in order to fight for power, someone would even cooperate with the old enemy of the Beholder Clan to introduce the Heartbreaker into Udinese's civil war." Qiao'an said in a low tone.
"The heart-cracker who colluded with Erdis?!" Inanna's eyes widened in disbelief, "Who did such a frenzied thing?"
"The number one warlord in the city, Elmati, the nickname'The One Who Wants You', is really appropriate for her." Qiao An sneered indifferently.
When Mitra pretended to settle in Udinese, Qiao Ann had a conflict with Elmedy. After that, Elmedy held a grudge and spoke bad things about him secretly. Qiao Ann has been too lazy to talk to her.
Unexpectedly, Elmatti, driven by ambition, colluded with the Mind Demon to deal with his compatriots, which could be regarded as refreshing the lower moral limit of the beholder family.
What makes Joan even more unexpected is that Elmati's ally in Oedis is precisely his old friend "Spiritual Princess" Metatron.
A week ago, Metatron wrote a letter saying that he had found a collaborator to help her create the "Ball of Talking." Qiao An was curious about the origin of this person and how could he help Metatron?
After receiving Saoirsa’s letter today, I suddenly realized that the collaborator Metatron was talking about was Elmedi!
As the "Warlord's Eye", Elmatti is born with a supernatural ability called "Spiritual Domination", which is equivalent to a weakened version of "Mythical Domination", which can control up to 20 beholders, as if they were imposed on the opponent. A permanent "Monster Domination Technique" has been created.
Metatron was worrying about how to catch the four beholders alive. With the assistance of Elmatti, this problem was solved.
In order to realize his ambition to seize the throne of Udinese, Elmedy did not hesitate to betray his compatriots and used "spiritual dominance" to control the four beholder nobles under his command to break into the traps preset by the mind-grabbing demons and become Mehta. Captive of Tron.
At this time, Metatron has gathered thirty-two phobias, sixteen tentacle beholders, eight thousand beholders, plus the four beholders that Elmetti betrayed to her to create a "talking ball." All the materials were prepared, and an altar was set up on the territory of Elmati, and a sacrifice ceremony was held.
In the ceremony, Metatron killed all the sacrifices and combined the spirit and flesh of the sacrifices according to the method proposed by Dr. Saul before his death, and finally succeeded in creating the legendary weird "Ball of Talking".
…
"My father, what happened?" Inanna asked eagerly.
"The clever Almedy tried to use the'spiritual dominance' to dominate the'talking ball', driving this monster to serve as a tool for her to conquer Udinese."
"However, the'Ball of Whispering' not only has the blood of the beholder, it also has the blood of the Obiris demon originating from the tentacle beholder and the thousand-eyed monster. It is immune to all spiritual control spells. Elmati can't control this nature's extremely chaotic and crazy nature. The monster of, can only watch the'Ball of Whispering' slaughter and destroy wildly on his own territory, and it is considered retribution."
Qiao An recalled Saoirsa’s letter, and then said:
The babbling ball raged on Elmati’s territory for a while, and later chased the escaped subspecies beholder and slaves, and broke into the center of Udinese. The wanton destruction and frenzied killing on the road caused huge panic in the city."
"The subspecies beholders who escaped from the Elmatti territory ran to find Saoirsa for help. It was through these fugitives' narratives that Saoirsa learned of the ins and outs of Elmatti's collusion with the mind-separator to entrap her compatriots. Sound the alarm bell of the council and call for the warlords and nobles to enter the city as soon as possible and join forces to fight the babbling ball."
"The warlords and the nobles mostly only care about themselves, so they don't care about the life and death of their compatriots in the city." Inanna said bitterly.
Qiao An sighed and encouraged the adopted daughter in a way as tact as possible, and don't be too pessimistic about his compatriots.
"The warlords did not respond to Saoirsa's request for help. Fortunately, some nobles who had never intervened in the struggle for power were loyal to their prime ministers, such as Slaoja and Rashnu, and led his servants to rush into the city to support."
"It's a pity that in the face of the Elmedi party and its allies, as well as the crazy legendary weird "Speaking Ball", Saoirsa and the others are too weak, and they have paid heavy casualties and failed to repel. The powerful enemy was forced to retreat to the Rock Hall where the council is located, where Saoirsa sent me a letter of help."
"Oh! That's right! The council hall is a refuge in the city!" Inana clapped her hands excitedly. "The building was locked by a legend by His Majesty. The Prime Minister and the others are hiding in it. At least temporarily, it can be safe!"
"Yes, His Majesty Ishtar has left Udinese, but the mystery she left behind still protects her people." Qiao An said with emotion.
"I'm afraid that time will drag on for too long, and this last fortress will be broken by the enemy and the traitor..." Inana became more and more worried as she thought about it, and was too anxious to sit still. "Father, you can't delay any longer, let's go back to Uzbekistan. Dinos!"
Qiao An nodded with a wry smile, and finally got to this point.
He took out the remote viewing mirror from the storage bag and used it as a magic weapon to cast the legendary magic "Eye of the Sky", infused with 40 degrees of magic power, and the mirror surface appeared with shining light.
After a few seconds, the brilliance converged, and the mirror showed a scene that Joan and Inanna were both familiar with. It was Udineus, the "Magic Eye Nest City".
The streetscape in the city center is messy. Most of the originally organized buildings and sculptures have been severely damaged. The corpses of beholder servants such as tauren, dwarf, and kobold are lying on the street. Large and small spherical objects are still suspended in mid-air. Incomplete and bloody, they were all the corpses of beholders or subspecies of beholders, who had obviously suffered cruel torture before they died.
Qiao An locked the mirror perspective on the roof of the council hall in the center of the city, and the circle of spherical translucent shields wrapped around the building were just the force field barriers that opened the locks.
On the square opposite the council hall, a huge group of gray flesh hovered in the volley, and the whole body was still twitching violently. It was the legendary weirdness with the lineage of the beholder, the phobia and the demon of Obiris. ball".
Last fall, Qiao Ann had seen a model of the "Ball of Talking" in Dr. Saul's laboratory, which was roughly the same as the monster seen in the mirror at this moment.
However, the conceptual model of the astrological structure, after all, cannot compare to the visual impact brought to him by the living "ball of chattering".
