In the living room of Lin You's home, Lin You blinked his eyes and looked at the young woman sitting in front of him. Writing "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info next to her is Phil, who is also puzzled.

and Meryl, who sat with her legs crossed, a blonde woman wearing a white medical robe and a female doctor. Holding a cup of hot green tea in his hand. As soon as she heard Lin You's narration, she immediately rushed over.

The young blonde girl sat across from the three, also holding a cup of green tea in her hand, taking small sips.

"I'm a mercenary hired by Silansals to protect you, and you can call me Morninglight." The woman said calmly, "In addition, I am a top electronic security monitoring expert, and I will be responsible for your security in the future." ”

"Where is Uncle Xilan now?" Lin You asked.

"It's not convenient for him to tell you now. However, compared to his strength, Lin You, you should be more worried about yourself. Chenguang said calmly.

"Do you have any way to prove it? It is impossible for us to believe whatever you say. Meryl said coldly. Xilan is a person I know, he will never let you run over without giving you any proof. Provided if you are really hired by him. ”

"Yes." Chenguang nodded, "I'm actually a disciple of Silansals. In other words, according to your Huaguo tradition, I was actually raised by him, and he was my adoptive father. But it wasn't just my adoptive father who raised me, he introduced me to the world of mercenaries. You should be able to find this information easily. ”

"I see." Meryl's face softened slightly, "I'll just say, how could that guy from Xilan be so generous and pay someone to come over." ”

"As you know, that guy when I was a free laborer." Chenguang shrugged helplessly. "Since it was his request, and I happened to want to take a long vacation for myself, I took it." Chenguang took a small red bead from his trouser pocket and gently tossed it to Meryl.

Meryl took it in her hand accurately. Looked.

"It is indeed his stuff. Even this is given to you, and only those closest to you have this possibility. ”

"That's for sure." Chenguang smiled.

"So, you should know the general situation of us, right?" Meryl continued.

"It's clear." Chenguang nodded.

"The energy scepter, in fact, there are only two groups of people in the world who are really interested in it, one is the Holy See, why the Holy See is interested in this, no one knows, but the intensity of investment in this aspect does not seem to be strong. On the other side are some university scholars on the magic side. They have a strong research interest in the Energy Scepter.

Therefore, if there is demand and there is a market, then there will be profits. Some small and medium-sized families, or wandering mercenaries, are naturally interested in your energy scepter. It's not so much that they're for the legendary power of the ethereal inheritance, but rather for the expensive price they offer for the Holy See and the magic side. ”

"What about you?" Meryl asked. Eyes glued to the morning light.

"Me? Are you kidding? Chenguang rolled his eyes and said, "I don't believe in the so-called inheritance power of the Energy Scepter at all, as for the magic side and the Holy See, the people on the magic side once almost paralyzed my father's lower body. Don't you know the relationship between the Holy See and my father? ”

"Xilan and the Holy See really don't deal with each other." Phil suddenly spoke. "Morning light, long time no see."

"Hello Aunt Phil." Chenguang nodded in response.

"Auntie" Lin You had a black line on her face.

In the afternoon in the small town of Minori on the Amalfi coast in Italy, in an open-air garden by the sea.

Under the cyan lawn and the white circular sunshade are several white chairs scattered around. A small circular flower bed is placed in the middle of the lawn, and the small white and red flowers look very bright in the sunlight.

There was a faint sense of wetness and a hint of freshness in the sea breeze.

From here, when you look at the sea facing you, it's a blue that seems to be connected to the sky. It occupies most of the field of vision.

A gray-haired and somewhat balding old man sat on a chair under a parasol, bare-chested, wearing only a pair of colorful beach pants. Wearing black sunglasses, the most conspicuous thing is the layers of folds squeezed out of the old man's stomach. and a silver cross necklace around his neck.

"Every year at this time, I come here." The old man's voice was a little broken, but the Italian he spoke was quite clear. "The Minori wind, this time of year, is so drowsy."

Under the parasol, on a chair with a back on one side, an old man with the same bare upper body and the same beach pants dress slowly emerged, but the only difference was that the old man's hair was very thick, although it was also white.

"How many years. You still haven't changed at all. The old man's voice was so serious that it made people feel that he must be a very strict person.

"Because there is no need to change." The bald old man patted the fat on his belly. "Five years to go, and that's my time."

"I have ten years left, a little later than you." The serious old man said. "After living so long, it's time to be content."

"I don't think so." The balding old man takes off his sunglasses. "I'm going to have to struggle a bit. Such a beautiful world, how can you be willing to leave like this. ”

"So you're ready to do it?"

"yes. Only the Energy Scepter can give me a little hope now. The bald old man held the cross necklace on his chest, "Lord, forgive me for my greed. ”

In the center of the bright cathedral, on both sides of the wide aisles, were densely packed with people, mostly priests and nuns in religious robes, among them young faces, middle-aged people, and wrinkled old people. But no matter what age they are, everyone has a solemn expression on their faces.

On the pulpit, a black-robed priest was reciting aloud fragments from the Bible.

"Be vigilant, stand firm in the faith, be firm in your will, be strong. Do everything you do with the love of your heart."

After he finished reciting a sentence, the people below him had to repeat it.

Half an hour later. After the chanting, everyone stood up and left. whispered to each other, sporadically walking in groups.

The black-robed priest on the pulpit also packed up his Bible, patted his robe, and prepared to leave through the side door next to the church.

"Father Adodhi! Please wait a moment. ”

A young voice stopped the black-robed priest.

At this time, there were only a few people left in the whole church, and they were all chatting as they walked out of the church.

A blonde man in a silver-white knight's armor stood in the middle of the aisle and shouted loudly.

The priest squinted at the knight.

"It's Alexander. What's the matter? ”

The knight bowed slightly.

"I'm sorry to stop you. I just wanted to ask you about Tesla's will. ”

"Lord Tesla?" Father Adodi was visibly stunned. "Alexander, you shouldn't have asked me this question. Aren't you Judges directly under Lord Tesla? ”

"As it may seem, in reality, the structure of our Order is no longer as rigorous as it once was. Over the course of the year, we have only been able to see Tesla-sama very few times. The knight said respectfully.

"And what about your regimental commander? What about Gaode? You can also go and ask him. Adodi said calmly.

"I'd like to get more comprehensive information from you if I could." Alexander smiled and quietly handed something over in his hand.

The priest took it without moving, weighed it, and his eyes suddenly showed a slight satisfaction.

"Since you strongly requested, then I will also give you a clear answer." The priest's face became more gentle.

Ten minutes later.

The knight left the church with a satisfied smile.

On the lawn in the Sword Codex space, Lin Fei slowly practiced basic swordsmanship.

Yuan Yicheng stood to the side, carrying a silver long sword behind his back. Quietly watched Lin Fei practice swordsmanship.

"Morning light?" Lin Fei turned around, the tip of his sword slanted. "Who is it?"

"It should be an undercover agent for the Nicholas family." Yuan Yicheng said in a deep voice, "After I completed the task, my people followed this person for a while and heard her talking on the phone with the people of the Nicholas family. ”

"You're pretty fast." Lin Fei's sword body was flat, and he said softly.

"I just got a small mercenary group, and I quickly did a few tasks, and it was easy to become the leader." Yuan Yicheng said lightly, "This kind of system itself is respected by strength. ”

"It's the strength of adults, it's been increasing too fast recently."

"Normal." Lin Fei put his sword away and stood upright. Finish the cultivation of basic swordsmanship. "Recently, I have occasionally come to an understanding, which is a bit of progress."

"Congratulations, sir." Yuan Yicheng congratulated.

"I'm going to send someone over soon, a dream eater named Ding Ning, you can help a little."

"Okay."

"She'll be blending into Lin You's circle as an enchantment master. As for that morning light, leave her alone. ”

"Behind these two men is us and the Nicholas family. Add to that the others that the Energy Scepter has brought in, and it's interesting. Yuan Yicheng said with interest.

Lin Fei did not answer. Calmly retracted the Black Sword into its scabbard.

Inside a noisy bar at night in San Francisco, USA.

The cacophony of music rock 'n' roll shook the entire bar to a roar. The crazy human body writhed and throbbed. Colored dots of light flickered rapidly, speeding past each of them.

In a corner of the bar.

A handsome man in a silver suit sat on a shiny black leather sofa. His eyes were slightly burgundy, as elegant as wine. The long black hair was tied up in a bunch and left behind the head.

Next to the sofa were two men in black suits guarding them. Strong body with bulging pockets around the waist.

Opposite the man stood an old man with snow-white hair, an old man with a cane and a white mustache.

"Avis, our people shouldn't be involved in the vortex between the Holy See and the magical side. Now is not the time! We in the Nicholas family are not ready to face the wrath of both. I want you to reconsider. ”

"Uncle Jack, I'm glad you were able to visit your nephew."

"But." He stood up, his red eyes shining. "The Chenguang Project is my first complete plan after I took office, and it is my will to carry it out."

"So what?" The old man said in a deep voice.

"How? Hahahaha," Ives burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" The old man's face changed slightly.

Avis stopped smiling abruptly.

"I, Nicholas Ives, carry out the will of the Great Ancestors!" He whispered close to the old man's ear. "My will is the direction of the family!"

He patted the old man on the shoulder. "Don't go astray."

"That's what I should have said." The old man snorted coldly, turned around, and watched as Ives led the man across the dance floor and disappeared into the exit of the bar.
