Section 274 Journey 3
"Of course, it's definitely not the weak chickens that the little warlock encountered before. The master said. When they were in Kunlun Mountain before, they were attacked by the Stygian Warlocks. But the warlocks were actually very weak—that's what Amber said afterwards.
It should be said that as long as it is not targeted, for example, the last time the Moon Warlock solo raid took place, in a specific environment, and a specific enemy is targeted, then that level of enemy Amber will not lose.
“…… The one who can carry that kind of artifact must be a strong person, maybe even a peerless powerhouse—even by the standards of a warlock. The master replied. "So the little warlock is gone...... If she was intact, she might be fine, but not now. ”
Amber's declining power remains unresolved, though Amber doesn't talk about it anymore. Obviously, what she had feared didn't happen. Her body is very safe, and it can only be said that there is something else wrong with this matter, some kind of ...... Certainly not in her original estimates. Because she didn't mention it herself, even if Lu Wu felt that this matter was a little strange, she didn't continue to pursue it. But at least one thing is known, and that is that Amber's power, although restored somewhat through "Devouring", is far from comparable to her heyday.
"This time, I brought a little warlock, mainly just in case...... Of course, partner, there are still dangers, and we should be able to accept this level of danger. Don't worry, even if the little warlock is not strong, if he wants to run, he will definitely be able to run away. ”
Because it is a spirit body, amber naturally has some special advantages. For example, flying levitation and the like - it can be done with little or no mana. What's even better is that in terms of her mana recovery, her stamina is still close to infinite. So when the master said this, Lu Wu also believed it.
The master's plan is actually quite ...... Simple. In short, his plan can be understood as trying to find the target, and then hand over the information to the Radiant Moon Warlock, so that the Radiant Moon Warlock can complete the next tasks. The master seemed convinced that the Radiant Moon Warlock would be very actively involved in this. But I have to say that Lu Wu doesn't have as much confidence as a master. Because even now, the Radiant Moon Warlock doesn't seem to show up—there's no reason why they shouldn't inform him if they come to Earth.
After all, this is Earth, his homeland, his birthplace. Normally, I don't feel this way, but after experiencing the other world, a human understands the feelings for his hometown.
"What's going on on with Thomas's side?" Lu Wu already knew that Thomas had already arrived at his destination, and (with the fanaticism of a rhapsodic deeply poisoned patient) led a scientific research team to conduct research on all aspects. I guess it's been more than ten days.
Don't ask why a journalist can lead a team of professional researchers to conduct research, in this world, money has that power.
"The situation is still under control, and the people on earth know that the pollution is terrible, so there are no accidents over there. And that area is not a farmland, but a forest. ”
"What about the others? No clues?"
"Hey, partner, I've put all the energy I can on that side. It can only be said that the level of modernization in that place is not high...... If it were in the city, I would still be sure to find the suspicious ones, but in the middle of nowhere, even I can't do anything about it. After all, the Stygian Warlocks are not ignorant of this world. You see, I basically keep two or three phone calls a day with Thomas. ”
"That...... What will happen?"
"It should be fine. The master said. "And, partner, even if you think about the worst possible...... You also have to know that everything you can do has been done. If that doesn't work, there's really no way around it. ”
"I mean...... That exoskeleton armor!"
While a large part of that stuff is definitely made by humans on Earth, everyone knows that there is no such technology on Earth at the moment. Science and technology cannot appear in a vacuum, but develop step by step. Everyone could tell from the traces of the scene that the exoskeleton had jumped from the opposite side of the building - which meant that it had jumped sideways for nearly a hundred meters. Even if it's jumping from high to low, this distance is terrifying enough.
"Partner, what do you care about? Earth humans are not monolithic?" said the master in a playful tone. "Countries compete with each other, keep it secret – I'm not saying it's bad, there's always competition that can go faster. But even if the exoskeleton armor was completely placed in front of them, they would not think of the idea of 'alien' or 'exotic'. It is estimated that Chinese will think that the Americans did it, that the Americans will think that the Europeans did it, and that the Europeans will think that it was Chinese to do it...... In short, everyone has good reason to be suspicious of others, and these suspicions cannot be proven. Unless the above can sort out the elements that don't exist on Earth - we don't have to worry about this at all. Besides, even if it is proved that this kind of thing comes from another world, what can it be? It is impossible for the earthlings to search the entire human race on the earth! Even if the search is carried out, it will only be in vain. ”
The master's logic is very clear, even Lu Wu can't refute it.
"What about the rest?"
"Everything went well," the master said. "The steel plant was unable to deliver in a timely manner, and the military really expressed great concern...... I've managed to convince them that if you stay inside, then the steel plant will soon be shut down. It is impossible for them to remain indifferent to our new alloys. The conference is almost over, and when it's over, the foreign experts will know about your arrest and imprisonment at the right time...... Plus, your lawyer is working overtime. After the Chinese New Year, the three parties work together, in my understanding, it should be no problem for you to be innocent. ”
This is a means of getting out of prison arranged by the master - although normally speaking, Lu Wu cannot be said to be completely innocent of the charges he was charged. It can only be said that the law is too flexible, and if you say you are guilty, you will be guilty, and if you are not guilty, you will not be guilty.
"Lu Wu......" Someone shouted behind him, Lu Wu turned his head and saw Ren Jian running over, full of spring breeze. He was surrounded by several strangers, one of whom was a middle-aged foreigner, with blonde hair and a humble smile like Thomas. The other is the two girls brought by Amber.
Originally, Lu Wu thought that Amber would go to a training class or something, that is, simply learn and train, and master some basic skills such as singing, dancing, and acting. But what she didn't expect was that she actually met several girlfriends in it...... Hey, how do you say it's also a spirit body, is it okay to do this......? Well, he shouldn't underestimate a First Lawlock. To put it bluntly, amber was cultivated and educated for this purpose.
One of the two girls, Jiang Xiaoyun, at least looks immature and full of curiosity. But curiosity is only one aspect, on the other hand, when talking to people, even with a person like Ren Jian who has a smiling face and a profiteer's face, she will seem a little shy and uncomfortable. The other one is called Ye Nan, and this one is much more mature.
Although the contact time was still very short, Lu Wu saw that Ren Jian was obviously interested in Ye Nan. And the latter doesn't seem to be particularly exclusive. Speaking of which, I don't know why, Ren Jian basically has no female popularity. It stands to reason that as a local, it seems normal (and worry-free) to have a girlfriend at university. However, this is probably due to the fact that he once sold rotten fruit into fruit trays to the girls' dormitory building - and Lu Wu was an accomplice in this matter - so his reputation was completely stinky. I can only say that I got a little more free tickets this time, which can be regarded as a good opportunity.
Moreover, it is very coincidental that it is not only Amber and other three who choose to travel for the New Year in the training class. According to several people, one of the teachers of the training course, a male teacher who teaches photography and painting, Zhang Liqiang, was actually on this cruise ship - they actually met at the dock.
"This is Mr. Kruger," Ren Jian said. "One of the organizers of this tour," he added quietly. "It's Thomas's relative, I don't know if it's my uncle or my uncle, and he gave us the ticket. ”
I gave five or six tickets in one go, worth about 100,000 yuan, which I have to say is quite generous.
In the face of such a master, although Lu Wu has something on his mind, he can only put aside other things for the time being and have a good time with Kruger.
Of course, the host was also very polite, he said that the two sides have a very happy cooperation in foreign trade, and are willing to further deepen the development of relations. Finally, he said that please enjoy the trip, and in addition, there will be a small dance party for special guests in the evening, so please participate.
But then again, although he knew that he was a relative of Thomas and an inviter to give away tickets, and this person spoke politely and politely, but how to say it, Lu Wu always felt that this person's eyes were a little wrong. There always seems to be a bit of a condescending feeling of looking down on people. On another occasion, Lu Wu would probably think that this guy is a racist and discriminates against Chinese. This is completely different from Thomas. Thomas, that stupid foreigner, doesn't have the slightest hint of discrimination. In fact, he still blindly worships the ancient culture of the East - more exaggerated than ordinary Chinese.
A few people left, and Lu Wu was the only one around.
At this moment, he was standing at the top of the deck. There's a small swimming pool – not at this temperature, of course, and the rest seats are all empty. Even if you look around, you can only see a very limited number of figures.
He turned his head to look again at where the sunset had disappeared, only to see a figure walking towards him.
A woman in a long winter foot-length skirt, a black fur coat, and a large hat on her head. Because of the head bowed, the hat covers the face.
Lu Wu thought that the other party was also a tourist who came here to enjoy the sunset and dusk sea view, so he took the initiative to move his position and give up this top point. After all, he was already a little chilled after a gust of wind. But when the two sides passed by, the other party grabbed him. It was a very neat and direct action, so that Lu Wu couldn't even break free, but at the moment of struggle, he could also see the other party's face clearly.
"It's you!" he blurted out, but covered his mouth in time, looking nervously at the entrance and exit where Amber and the others had disappeared.
Fortunately, there was no reaction from there, and it was obvious that they had already turned far away, and even the warlock could not have heard this distance.
"Why, seeing me is like seeing a ghost?" asked Zhu Hua leisurely.
"If Amber ......"
"Rest assured, the Radiant Moon Warlock has gone far. And I don't have any magical remnants on me now, and even if she saw me, she wouldn't be able to tell who I was. Zhu Hua said confidently. "It's not like if I pull your hand and she'll kill someone, right?"
"By the way, how is it at the detention center?" Lu Wu calmed down and immediately thought of a more serious problem.
"Don't worry about that ......," Zhu Hua said confidently. "Don't underestimate the power of the Warlocks. I promise it's fine. Anyway, during the Chinese New Year, all the guards will selectively forget about you, and by the time they remember your existence, you'll be done. ”
"We're not...... Is it agreed?" Having said that, Lu Wuke didn't want to see Zhu Hua here at all.
"I'm not your subordinate, we just made a deal. Zhu Hua laughed. "I'll just do my job anyway, won't I? Do you want to ask for more? If so, I'll have to pay more!"
