Chapter Seventy-Eight: Andrew
St. Paul's Cathedral, London, England
The white-domed church is bathed in golden sunlight. On the side is a green lawn that is trimmed into pieces of tofu. The gray cement floor with a row of small yellow flowers planted around the edge adds a softness to this serious place.
On the front of the church, a handsome man with dazzling blond hair, dressed in a white suit, quietly raised his head slightly, looking at the statue of Queen Anne above the church.
In the early morning, there are very few visitors to the church, but everyone who passes by him will unconsciously glance at this man.
The long and neat golden hair, which is dazzling and wavy, is draped over the shoulders, like a silk thread drawn by gold, pure and natural. Perfect and delicate facial features, the most perfect face in the mind of any woman, a straight figure, as if all the adjectives of perfection were set up for him.
"Like St. Paul, I used to turn a deaf ear to the Lord's instructions." The man whispered.
"You're still the same as before, Uncle Auston." A short-haired blond man walked up to him and lightly lit a cigarette, although his appearance was equally handsome, it was still less dazzling and perfect than Auston's.
"if, I remember the last time I saw you was thirteen years ago." The man named Auston said lightly.
"If you can, please don't call me if, I'm instantaneous, not an abbreviation." Instantaneous took a soft puff of his cigarette, but couldn't help coughing. "If it wasn't for the last resort, I wouldn't want to come to you, my brother Fire Snake is dead, if I also die, I hope you can break your oath and avenge us."
"Revenge is burning hatred, isn't it good to give up hatred and live peacefully?" Alston closed his eyes slightly and lightly drew a cross in front of him.
Instantaneous Yan was silent for a while, put on his cigarette, and said no more.
"Every morning, I come here and listen quietly. It's been a habit for more than a decade. Auston looked down at the watch on his wrist.
"Is that what Ellie is hoping for?" Instant Yan said lightly.
Auston didn't answer, just turned around calmly, and a silver-white stretched Lincoln stopped in front of him.
He didn't say a word until he got in the car. It's as if Instant Flame is completely unrelated to him.
Instantaneous Yan silently watched as the Lincoln car slowly drove away, away from it, until it disappeared around the corner.
"Uncle Auston is still so creepy."
He sighed, knowing that his purpose had been achieved. Whoever kills the Tower of Radiance will be banished by the Light.
****************
On the brownish-yellow, wood-grained tabletop, a square of golden sunlight falls on it. Suddenly the whole dark room brightened up. Thick curtains keep most of the light out.
On the wall of the room hangs a black and white oil painting of a medieval sailing ship. The wooden floor, the same color as the tabletop, the half-lit candle holder, and the melted wax oil snaked down the metal shelf.
Auston sat quietly at the wooden table, blonde hair running down his shoulders, his expression indistinct in the shadows.
"What do you think of the Sistin?" He asked flatly.
In another shadow, a hoarse voice answered his question.
"He doesn't trust anyone, he only believes in himself, and any overly close is a disaster for him."
So all those who had a relationship with him left him. Alone, the Sistine had reached his last days. Even if it's the price for him to push us away. Alston looked out the bright window.
"The matter of Instant Flame and the Fire Serpent has let Andrew go. Although he has just advanced to C-rank, he should have no problem dealing with a D-rank. If you can't retrieve the energy scepter this time, you can directly dispose of it according to the system. ”
****************
Lin Fei opened his eyes slightly, and he was sitting quietly on the classroom seat. It's the end of class, and despite the commotion outside the classroom, almost everyone in the classroom is hunched over their desks, some are doing questions, some are copying words, and some are like Lin Fei with their eyes closed.
Quietly visualizing the pattern of qi training has become his natural habit. Constantly familiarizing himself with the third picture, making it clearer and clearer, gradually shortening the time required for each visualization, he tried to see the content of the pattern, but every time he reached a critical point, there would be a faint sense of exhaustion.
For him, learning is just now used to calm the hearts of his parents, if he wants, he can withdraw at any time, with the transformation of the power of hypocrisy, learning is easy for him, memorizing memory, understanding and analysis, completely reached a very high level. He can spend an hour learning something that would take days for others to learn.
So on the first day back to school, he directly made up all the previous lessons.
Life in the third year of high school is boring, except for doing questions and doing questions, exams, exercises, exams, exercises, everything revolves around revision.
Although Lin Fei has a strong learning ability, he doesn't listen to lectures or do questions every day, he just does his own thing, and it is impossible to get high scores. So it's still a completely inconspicuous member of the class, although the appearance is a little more delicate.
The third diagram of the Qi Cultivation Chapter was about to break through, but the sword eye derived from Yan Shi had not made the slightest progress. So Lin Fei concentrated all his energy on the third diagram, and almost as soon as the cooldown arrived, he immediately visualized it again, never wasting half of his time. The upcoming Shadow Sword Duel made him look forward to it very much. As for the sword eye, it is estimated that there will be a breakthrough only if the false truth power appears again. This extremely deep swordsmanship almost ran through most of Yan Shi's memory imprints.
Slowly closing the textbook on the table, Lin Fei took out the mobile phone that kept vibrating in his trouser pocket. A newly arrived text message appears in the message box.
"The two people we tracked down last time have a result. The fruit knife was picked up in Linglong Mountain. ”
"Linglong Mountain?" Lin Fei read out unconsciously. He had a hunch that as long as he found a trace of false truth again, he would definitely be able to fuse all the Yan Ten Seals and cultivate them into a sword eye. The strength of cultivating the sword eye can definitely reach the C level. Although he himself does not have a clear idea of the C-Class. And according to the experience of the last time, the power of false truth also has a strong effect on the promotion of qi training. He was really fed up with such slow progress in Qi training.
"Exact address?" He texted back to ask Xiaoling.
"It's been marked on the map." Soon a satellite map came straight in. A small scarlet dot stands out in the center of the map.
*************
The black cat squatted on Lin You's desk, licking the milk from a small plate.
"Now we're safe for the time being, right?" Lin You lay on the side and said lazily. The warmth of the warm sun made her completely unable to resist the feeling of comfort.
"For the time being, let's just say that." The black cat said casually.
"Aren't the people who chased you before suddenly disappeared?" Lin You wondered.
"It's not chasing me, it's chasing us." The black cat's little butt sat on the table, and the two front paws directly picked up the small plate, drank the remaining milk in one gulp, and licked its mouth. "The people of the Tower of Radiance collect the Energy Scepter, although I don't know what it is for, but from the moment you and I make a contract, your and my lives have been tied together."
"Tower of Radiance?"
"You don't need to know so much now, you just need to hurry up and improve your strength." The black cat put down the plate and said solemnly. "The strength of the F-level is really unimpressive."
"So how can you improve your strength? Sister Bing said that there is no shortcut to ability, and I can only rely on repeated training to achieve F-level strength. Lin You said helplessly. And I'm a freshman in high school, and I have a lot of study tasks every day."
"As long as you get to the pinnacle of the F-rank, I'll be able to regain some strength a bit. I don't have to rely on you all the time. The black cat replied.
"So there's no shortcut, right?" Lin You pursed his lips, "If you say it, you don't say it." ”
"Besides, you can still find a helper." The black cat gracefully walked to Lin You's face and squatted down.
"Where did I get my help? Since I met you, Sister Bing's phone has not been able to get through, and no one has contacted me above. It's like I'm just a normal person. ”
"They've given up on you." The black cat said disdainfully, "Heretics are like that, for fear of getting into trouble, the Tower of Radiance is a member of the religious side, so they retreated." ”
"So how can you get out of this situation? I don't want to be hunted down for the rest of my life. Lin You said helplessly.
"Although I don't know why the Tower of Radiance collects energy scepters. You must know that the energy scepter is the cornerstone of the entire occult system, and it is said that the five energy scepters determine the stability and tranquility of the entire earth."
"Then am I a magical beautiful girl who maintains world peace?" Lin You interrupted it angrily. "Can you please be serious?" She was suddenly stunned, "By the way, by the way, it's always been you, what is your name?" ”
"Night dress masquerade!" The black cat stretched out a paw to cover its left eye.
"Night your sister!" Lin You slapped the black cat on the head.
"Well, you can call me Phil. I am proficient in the six Chinese languages, and compared to a vulgar existence like yours, it is simply the difference between the sun and fireflies! The black cat, who had been slapped hard, continued to look self-absorbed.
"You won't be the only energy scepter fused, will you?" Lin You suddenly asked the key.
"To be exact, there are only five energy scepters, which are inherited by the five major families, and since I have all suffered such treatment, then the other inheritance families will definitely not be much better." Black Cat Phil finally said seriously, "Only by uniting the power of the five major families can the Tower of Radiance be feared. This is your task after that. Moreover, it is said that the moment you collect all the energy scepters, the collector will receive the power of miracles. ”
"The power of miracles?" Lin You was stunned.
"Well, the legend is a huge power that can reach the top of the ability." Phil said solemnly.
"Okay, it seems that I'm still a magical beautiful girl who maintains world peace," Lin Yu said weakly.
"In a way, it is."
