"How's it going in the lab?"

The old man asked in a hoarse voice as he walked down the stairs.

"The rebuilding has been completed, and the capabilities of the North American branch members are currently being selected one by one."

Rowan bowed to the old man and reported the progress of the work softly.

"Would any of them want to join us?"

Rowan shook his head.

"No, after all, the people who are willing to join us are already standing here."

After a short silence, the old man did not hesitate too much, and continued to command in a hoarse voice like a dead branch.

"Then after extracting their abilities, turn them all into blood servants, and Syrith won't need it, keep him, someone will come and talk to him."

"I understand."

The old man glanced at all the black-robed people in front of him.

In the face of these monsters, these monsters who looked very unruly, the old man coughed lightly.

"The tournament is going to start soon, and it's not going to take place here, but I don't want you to attack Carl and them, you know?"

"I don't know!"

Xiaolan, a girl hidden in the dark, stomped her feet angrily.

"Why not! They're all going to leave that hotel when the game starts anyway, so why not just kill them! I'd love to taste the blood. ”

Rowan turned around and stood in front of the old man, and explained helplessly to the girl hidden in the dark.

"Xiao Lan, because they have the Eastern Heavenly Gods by their side, you should also know that in front of the Eastern Heavenly Gods, we have no chance of winning, even if we can really defeat those Heavenly Gods, but we will attract unimaginable revenge."

In the face of Luo Wen's patient explanation, she even helped her block the old man's possible reprimand, but the girl did not appreciate it at all, but said with disdain.

"That group of monsters who are greedy for life and afraid of death, since the last failure, they have been so scared that they never dare to appear again, their words, what is so good."

"Xiaolan!"

Rowan stopped the girl again and told her not to continue.

The girl was still not convinced.

"I'm not wrong, they're just a bunch of monsters who are greedy for life and afraid of death, why are we ......."

The girl's voice stopped abruptly, because at this moment, a low voice that seemed to descend from an ancient flood came into the gloomy villa.

Resounding in the hearts of every Bloodline.

"We are indeed greedy for life and afraid of death, because we have all seen Huaguo Mountain, which was razed to the ground in the past."

"Have you ever seen a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers? Have you ever seen the gods in the sky step on a dark cloud and loom over you? ”

"Twenty-eight constellations, thirty-six Tiangang, seventy-two earth demons, twenty-four righteous gods of the thunder department, five righteous gods of the fire department, four heavenly kings, nine yao star palaces, twelve yuanchen, five directions to reveal the truth, four values of gong cao, east and west star dou, north and south two gods, the universal stars are only half of this, and the south heavenly gate has not yet been counted in it, it is not long ago the six dings and six jia, and the twelve righteous gods are not considered to be the people who pass through the sky."

"We're afraid of death, because we've seen it."

The darkness in which the girl was found fell silent.

Rowan frowned and immediately bent down to salute.

"I'm sorry, Xiaolan is just a child, she can't hide her mouth, if there is an offense to you, I hope you don't mind."

The deep voice sounded again.

"It doesn't matter."

There was silence in the gloomy villa again, and all the black-robed men stood on the couch or by the window with heavy faces, imagining the picture described by the voice.

The sky is full of gods, stepping on black clouds, covering the sky.

——————————

The old man stands in front of the "Madonna of the Rocks" in the fireplace, staring at the painting with his back hand.

After looking at it for a long time, he opened his mouth to break the silence in the villa.

"You can't attack Carl on your own initiative, but it's okay for you to do something else so that they can't come and disturb us."

Rowan nodded slightly.

"I'll arrange it."

The old man's voice was much sharper.

"I don't want what happened just now, this is the East after all, you know?"

No one spoke, only Rowan walked into the darkness beside him and gently tapped the head of the girl who was still sulking.

The girl's whining voice sounded, and then she held her mouth, reluctant to the extreme.

"Okay, okay, I know, I won't say it anymore."

The corners of Rowan's mouth showed a relieved and helpless smile like an old father.

The old man continued to command.

"During this time, we must also hurry up and create blood servants, since the secret party has discovered our secret, it means that we don't have much time to waste, and after we get the two holy weapons, we can arrange to evacuate."

Rowan frowned slightly and asked softly.

"Aren't we going to fight the secret party here for a new ten-year war?"

When the words fell, all the black-robed people of the Demon Party present couldn't help but sit up straight.

Listening to Rowan's question, the old man didn't make any moves, still standing in front of "Our Lady of the Rocks", with his back to everyone.

It took about a minute before the old man slowly turned around.

At this moment, the eyes of all the black-robed people in the villa were fixed on him.

A wide black robe covered his head, allowing only his mouth to be seen.

Facing the gaze of the countless dark red pupils, the corners of the old man's mouth full of wrinkles outlined a frightening smile.

After so many years on the run, so many years of preparation, how can you not surprise them more?

"The academy of the secret party is the best place for war."

After a short silence, all the black-robed people stood up at the same time and bowed to the old man.

"Do as you command."

—————————

"Zifeng, I don't know why, these days, I always feel a little uneasy."

Sitting in a chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Carl stretched out his fingers and rubbed his temples tiredly.

Those dark blue magic eyes were actually bloodshot at the moment.

Tell the world all the time that the owner of the MONOCULUS is already very tired.

Chu Zifeng folded his arms indifferently and leaned against the wall on the side.

"Is it because the game is about to start?"

Karl hesitated.

He didn't know if Chu Zifeng was right, because even he didn't know why his mood would become more and more tormented day by day as the day of the competition approached.

It's as if something big is about to happen.

"I don't know, but I always feel like something is going to happen."

Chu Zifeng frowned, leaned against the wall and comforted coldly.

"Don't think too much, we just have to do our best."

"You're right," Carl closed his eyes tiredly, and he had been sleepless for days, the magic eye, and his spirit were exhausted to the extreme.

Looking at Carl's tired appearance, Chu Zifeng walked to the refrigerator, helped him take out a bottle of iced coffee, and put it in front of him.

"You don't have to make yourself so tired."

"Bang." Chu Zifeng helped Carl open the coffee and handed it to him.

After taking the coffee, Carl thanked him, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"I don't really want to be so tired, I actually want to sleep too, but no, the MONOCULUS is always torturing me and giving me hints, but no matter how I calculate, I can't find any clue."

"What the hell are you worried about?" Chu Zifeng glanced at Carl and asked.

He took a small sip of iced coffee, and the icy temperature cleared up Carl's chaotic brain a lot.

But with that comes more chaos!

"Many, many, many more, why would the Hallows be put into a contest as a prize, and what was their purpose in doing so? What will the demon party do next? How exactly did the academy deal with the traitors inside? When will we get the support of the Academy? Who will support? Will they be able to build an effective war with us? Where are the surviving members of the Celestial Empire Branch? Why don't you meet with us? How many Blood Servants are there? Demon Party ......."

Chu Zifeng slammed the dagger on his waist into the floor at Carl's feet.

"Brush!"

The dagger was plunged precisely into Carl's feet, causing him to stop his almost mad words.

"You haven't slept in a few days?"

Karl froze, then covered his eyes.

"Probably, probably since the eldest lady finished making the roast suckling pig, she hasn't had time to rest."

"That means you haven't slept in five days."

"Are you the headmaster?"

Chu Zifeng asked coldly.

Karl shook his head.

"Are you a senator of the Senate?"

Karl shook his head.

"Have you fought in the Ten Years' War?"

Carl shook his head anyway.

Chu Zifeng gave him a roll of his eyes.

"Those three bastards sometimes have a lot of things worth learning from you, such as having a big heart, otherwise if you go on like this, you may boil yourself to death."

Thinking of the three Huang Xiaobei who lived carefree every day, Carl also sighed with a smile.

"Also, it seems that I am a little too tired, but haven't you noticed them? The reason why they are so happy is because they know that we are ahead. ”

"No, those three people are like this, don't expect too much from them, if we die one day, they won't take any responsibility, they will just run to the side of the demon party with a smile."

Carl smiled helplessly.

"Probably so."

Chu Zifeng took out a box of sleeping pills from his waist and put it in front of Carl.

"Even if our physical fitness is far beyond that of ordinary humans, you should sleep."

Carl stared at the sleeping pills that Chu Zifeng had placed in front of him, and his eyes couldn't help but recall how he had spent the past five days.

Sitting in this position without sleep, the magic eye kept unfolding the calculations all the time, calculating for five days and five nights.

Huge data, a lot of bad events, all of them have been sorted out and calculated over and over again, and he tries to link these events together in order to deduce the true intentions of the demon party.

Except for going to the bathroom, he barely moved.

This is Carl's daily life, sometimes he often gives Huang Xiaobei a very tired feeling, Huang Xiaobei asked him why he is so tired, he honestly said that he is working, but our Huang Commissioner couldn't guess that Carl's so-called work would be like this.

He had always thought that Carl was just using work as an excuse and was actually playing games in his room, which was why he was so tired.

He also had no idea what Carl had been working on in private.

——————————

There is no way, he is the supreme commander in the sense of this place, and he naturally needs to do this.

Responsibility, although my father never said a word to himself, this is the teaching he left for himself - responsibility.

The responsibility that belongs to the Bren's family, the responsibility that belongs to him Karl, can only be shouldered by him, and only by him.

Facing Chu Zifeng, who finally began to care about others, Carl shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"I'm still waiting, there are some things I'm still more concerned about, by the way, have you found anything in the past few days?"

Chu Zifeng didn't speak, but his indifferent eyes had already told Carl everything.

He didn't get anything.

Karl also guessed that this was the case, and muttered something like the usual madness just now.

"Why? Why exactly? Why are the surviving seniors of the Celestial Empire branch reluctant to meet us? Why the hell are they .......?"

"I have something to do, you can continue to rest."

Chu Zifeng didn't want to disturb the extremely tired Carl anymore, so he turned around and left.

Carl nodded, stopping his crazy brain.

He felt that it was time for him to take a good rest, after all, he didn't want to die suddenly.

But before leaving, Chu Zifeng asked him a question.

"The things you're thinking about these days are really important, but you're not trying to figure out why, are you?"

Carl pushed his sunglasses, his eyes bloodshot.

"Yes, I really didn't want to figure out the reason for these things themselves, I just wanted to know why the demons did this, what is the reason why they do these things, in short, what is the purpose behind them? This is also a question that has been bothering me for a long time, what are they going to do? What do you want to get? Or do you want to achieve something? Or maybe there's a bigger conspiracy in there! ”

Chu Zifeng was silent for a while, and spoke indifferently.

"Quite simply, to take revenge on the secret party."

Carl froze.

Chu Zifeng continued to wake him up.

"Aside from those things, the Demon Party is to take revenge on the secret party, this is their most fundamental purpose, everything is built on this, as for the others, they are just derivatives on this fundamental goal, and you seem to have been trapped in those cumbersome derivatives recently."

Karl was silent, and then he laughed.

Because Chu Zifeng's words woke him up.

Indeed, he has been thinking too much lately, and he is completely immersed in a series of events of the Demon Party and can't extricate himself.

But he ignored the most fundamental answer, the demon party wants to take revenge on the academy, and everything else is a specific plan.

And with Chu Zifeng's prompt, Carl's brain suddenly opened up.

"Zifeng, thank you, I think I've guessed what the Demon Party is going to do now."

Chu Zifeng turned his back to Carl and listened quietly.

"If there are no accidents, they have made so many preparations, it is likely that they want to fight a ten-year war!"

As if he had discovered Columbus in the New World, Carl excitedly spoke his conjectures.

"The Blood Servants are their soldiers, the Holy Weapons are their weapons, they are coming, they are about to start a new decade of war, soldiers, weapons are there, as for the location....... It won't be in the Celestial Empire! It's at the heart of us! ”

Carl's bloodshot eyes glowed with a faint blue light again.

"They're going to start a new war against us, and the location is likely to be at the heart of us, Academy!"

Chu Zifeng shrugged.

"Then go to sleep."

After speaking, Chu Zifeng disappeared.

Seeing Chu Zifeng leaving, Carl opened his mouth, obviously wanting to say something, but after finding that Chu Zifeng really left, the expression on Carl's face became very lonely.

"At least listen to me......."

Facing the empty room, Carl continued to ponder, conjecture.

But after realizing that he had thought about everything more or less, Carl, who was slender but full of exhaustion, fell straight to his bed.

A second before falling asleep, the sleepy-eyed Karl opened his eyes, his handsome features full of tiredness and relaxation.

Opening his mouth slightly, Carl muttered softly.

"Zifeng, next, I'm going to ask you."
