"I've heard Michael mention you a lot, and it's rare for a newcomer to make such a noise," said Tifeng. ”

I replied, "I firmly believe that the Black Coffin is the best place for me, because the Black Coffin has unlimited opportunities for me to show my strengths." ”

Ti Feng smiled: "Well said! Although the world has fallen, but humanity has not perished, the black coffin is one of the few remaining fortresses of mankind, we naturally hope to recruit talents, so that more talented people can work with us. ”

She is in fact the queen of the black coffin, and even the consuls have to be afraid of her, and I must show her my eloquence and wisdom, and impress her in just a few minutes.

I said: "I have walked through mountains and lakes, I have seen natural disasters and man-made disasters, I believe that the black coffin wants to pioneer, I am the most suitable person, no one is more familiar with the ruins of San Francisco than me, as long as I am given a certain .... power, I will definitely hand over the perfect answer. ”

Ti Feng smiled: "You really dare to make a request, in this year, there are many careerists, but there are not many worthy of the name." ”

I held my head high and said, "Careerist? No, I'm not a careerist, and in these troubled times, someone should step up and sweep away the demons. ”

Tifeng smiled again and said, "I'm so sorry, the people over there called me, please allow me to be rude and leave." ”

I didn't see anyone calling her, she was just looking for an excuse to leave. But I wasn't discouraged, and I was convinced that this short conversation would be enough for her to remember me.

Lamia said, "Tiphon is in charge of the entertainment and commerce of the Black Coffin, and has little to do with us Rangers, and you want to get a chance from her, and you're looking for the wrong person." ”

I whispered, "Wouldn't that be just right?" It's better to work under her than to risk losing your head outside. ”

Lamia asked, "Then how do you say, 'Stand up and sweep away the demons'?" ”

Me: "That's what I say, but I don't do that, I just want to live a quiet life now, I just want to make money now." ”

Lamia sighed: "I'm relieved to see you so motivated, but you have to be cautious, Missouri, Tiphon, and Mai Zong are fighting openly and secretly, and they can't tolerate the grass on the wall." ”

I knew I couldn't waver, at least not for long, but Michael didn't seem to be able to hold it up.

After being in the crowd for a long time, I couldn't tell which of them were blood and which were ordinary people. Lamia said that the Bloods are only a tiny minority, how can you tell them apart? Lamia said it was good not to care.

When the exhibition was over, Michael's manservant stopped us: "Mr. and Mrs. Longinus, the Marquis is looking forward to your two coming for a while." ”

When I met him, Michael was still in his study, but not only him, but Le Gang was also present, and there was also a woman she didn't know, she had long blonde hair, open clothes, a dazzling figure, a youthful figure, and an aggressive gaze, like those spoiled daughters who didn't know the height of the sky.

The statue was still obscured by Michael's red blood curtain, and he didn't look at us and said, "Longie, have you heard about a Cao king in the East?" ”

I said, "What King Cao?" ”

Michael said: "King Cao was an ancient monarch in the East, and one day he got a portrait of a woman in the portrait that made him smit. He asked his men, 'Who is this woman?' Where are you now? His men told him: 'On the other side of the sea in the southeast, there is a country called Wu, which is ruled by two righteous brothers. The woman in this painting is the wife of one of them, and she has a younger sister who is as beautiful as her. ’”

The blonde girl smiled, "Michael, you should get to the point quickly!" ”

Michael also said: "King Cao thought about those two beauties, and he personally led a large army, built ships, and went on an expedition of thousands of miles to the kingdom of Wu. As a result, instead of succeeding, he was defeated, killing countless soldiers in battle, and finally escaped with his life. Longinus, what do you think of this story? ”

I thought about it and told him, "At least King Cao tried." ”

Michael trembled: "Yes, at least he .... Tried it. Unable to take his eyes off the statue, he muttered, "And two sisters." ”

I suddenly had a bad premonition.

The blonde girl said, "My brother wants to collect all the statues, and he is going crazy. Especially after today's exhibition was a great success, he just wanted to find the other two pieces quickly so that he could show them off to others. ”

Michael exclaimed, "You don't know how I feel!" There is only one statue, which is worse than nothing! I have to collect all three, and I can't tolerate my collection being incomplete. ”

He finally looked at me and said, "Longi, my friend, the person I trust the most, can I beg you to do one thing for poor me?" ”

I immediately said, "No! ”

Michael said, "Why not? ”

I said, "Because I know what you're having."

Michael stretched out his hand and said, "Okay, okay, sympathize with me, aren't we friends?" All you have to do is walk me to the San Francisco Museum, the statue must still be in the museum, protected by magical magic, and only you can crack it. "He shook the pictures in front of my eyes, and I saw that the pictures were wrinkled, and he must have touched them a thousand times.

The blonde girl's eyes sparkled, excited, and full of anticipation. Legang was still smiling indifferently.

I said, "Well, if you want me to go, I want two million gold dollars, not a cent." ”

The blonde girl laughed heartily and said, "What a guy who lives up to his reputation and wants money and death, you dare to bargain with us?" "That's when I saw her long canine teeth, and she's also a Blood... Patients with hemophilic rabies.

"But you have to understand my predicament, all my money is spent on museum collections," Michael said. ”

I was even more angry and reprimanded, "You took things from me for free and gave all the money to others? Why do you still call me a friend? The luxury goods you buy every day are enough for my family for 30 years! Lamia seemed to try to dissuade me, but she didn't.

Michael wasn't angry, his eyes widened and he said, "Those luxuries? But are those essential expenses? ”

I tried to understand Michael's thinking, in his conception that money is one thing, friends are another, it is absolutely not okay to give money to friends, and it is absolutely impossible not to buy jewelry, and the two are also very clear and reasonable in his mind, and I don't know how the Archon spoiled him like this.

I regained my composure on the surface, and said, "Allow me to refuse, for I have just escaped my life from a despicable abduction, and am still recuperating from my wounds, as the Marquis de Legang can testify, and I really feel that I am not fit to go out at this moment." ”

Suddenly, the blonde girl came at me, her movements no slower than Le Steel, and she showed incredible flexibility, grace and fluidity.

Lamia tried to grab her, but she dodged her, and then, her hand grabbed at my throat, her skin glistening silvery-white in the light.

I activated the Nian Blade and used the "Iron Lotus", a layer of shadows separated her hand, her strength was not strong, and I blocked it.

She trembled, "Larsen." "I looked shocked and ran away from me at once. If she doesn't go, I'm going to beat her with a brilliant hand.

I said, "It's not a Larsen, it's a blade." What exactly do you mean by Larsen? ”

Le Gang said: "It used to be a branch of our bloodline, but it has died out in the long river of history. You're not one of our kind, but you're rare enough to wield the power of shadow. ”

He pointed to the blonde girl and said, "Bella Delevanne, she is the daughter of Tiphon and our distant relative. ”

Bella said: "Now it can be considered a close neighbor. She shook hands with me and Lamia, her palms were cold, and when her hand touched mine, I saw her long nails sticking out, which shocked me, but she just scratched me lightly and laughed in a low voice: "You are excellent, it's a shame to get married so early." ”

I said, "It's a pity, no, it's not a pity, I'm lucky." "Although she seems young, her words and deeds are like that of a veteran of the love scene in novels, and I don't want to be her captive.

"It's admirable that Brother Michael has invested heavily in his cultural endeavors," Bella said. I was also fascinated by the bloody and mysterious three sisters of the Mayan civilization. Well, I'm willing to bear the price you offered. ”

I asked, "Two ..... Million? ”

Bella said, "Yes, 20 million credits. But I have one condition. ”

I agreed to any conditions, after all, I almost died for 20 million before.

Bella said, "I'm going with you too." ”

She's not a weak woman who can't be helped, so there's not necessarily any danger in the museum, and that's not a difficult task.

I said, "That's fine."

Lamia said to Legang: "Sir, then I'll too...."

Le Gang shook his head and said: "You understand the rules, you and he are husband and wife, and one of the husband and wife must always stay in the black coffin." ”

I don't know why this rule is so ridiculous, is it to prevent defection? In the vast wilderness, in the last days of the catastrophe, where can we escape?

Lamia frowned, bit her lip, and looked at me regretfully.

She's not the kind of jealous woman, she's worried that I'll be sucked by this Bella's blood.

I whispered to her not to worry, she kissed me and I kissed her.

Bella sighed: "Don't show affection in front of me, I'm the softest heart, and it will make me cry." ”

"I've applied to the Archon for Yune's dispatch authority, and this is Yune's first 'sea trial,' and you're not only going to the San Francisco Museum, but you're also going to collect some supplies along the way," Legang said. ”

I was taken aback, I never expected this trip to be so grand, and I said, "But sir, you see my skinny appearance, I am not a coolie." ”

"There will be a team of rangers with you, and this operation was ordered by the consul himself," Legang said. ”

I was in a hurry to make a difference, and when I heard that this trip was so important, my heart welled up with joy, and I knew that this was the case, and that I probably should not have asked Michael for money.

Lamia asked, "Are they all our people?"

Le Gang replied: "Mai Zong also contributed half, because they wanted to share the right to use Yune, so they had to contribute. We have agreed on this matter, rest assured, this time they will not play tricks again. ”
