Chapter 137: Twists and turns
The sound of clattering footsteps was accompanied by a slightly rapid gasp, and then a middle-aged woman with glasses pushed the door open.
The long blue hair was slightly messy in the wind, the cold and rebellious purple eyes were extremely deep, the cherry pink lips outlined a mocking arc, and the chin was slightly raised, and he walked in.
"It's you!" The woman glanced at Noah indifferently and the black coat she was wearing, nodded and said, "You are wearing this dress, which means ...... That's it!"
The woman shook her head, then looked at Hulse, looking extremely respectful.
"What are you doing here, President?"
"Leah?" Hulse replied with some hesitation, "why are you here?"
"I wanted to grow up as an adult, even if I went to the reading room to read a book as a customary, I should have come back a long time ago, even if you agreed to Artemis to learn archery skills, you shouldn't forget, what else is going on today, right?"
"Is there one?" Hulse said to keep himself from looking Leah in the eye, deliberately pretending to be stupid, "Why don't I remember such a thing?"
Leah glanced at Noah, and then said, "President, don't you want to skip this job again, even if it's a new person, it's a happy thing, but about the topic of last time, find the matter of Dusk!"
"Dusk?" Hearing the word, Hulse's eyes suddenly changed, his eyes seemed cloudy and unmoving, and his eyes were not as energetic as before.
"Those guys don't know what they're planning, and even if they find dusk, they may not be able to do what they think!"
Leah pushed her glasses, and a bright light reflected on the lenses, "This is not something for the president to worry about, the main gods have indicated that you want to attend this meeting!"
Hulse frowned and whispered, "Can you not go?"
"What do you say~" Leah looked extremely impatient.
"Then there is no way!"
Huls sighed regretfully, and then said to Noah, "Noah, I think I have to leave, it's a pity that I can't drink the tea you made!"
Noah tore the tea bag and said, "It's okay, I don't care!"
"Well, it's not pleasant to hear you say that, but you can choose to help me watch the house here, and of course it doesn't matter if you don't want to!
Hulse slowly took out a thick book from a drawer, all written in odd-shaped ancient script, and there was still a strange smell of the writing.
"This is someone else's book I borrowed last time, although I haven't fully comprehended it yet, but I have to return it to her today, if it's okay, help me go to the ice goddess of class C of the cold force operation department to help me return the book to her!"
"Return the book, this is the job?" Noah was slightly stunned.
"Yes, and it's still a very important job for you!" Hulse smiled at the corner of his mouth, "By the way, it's worth mentioning, this girl seems to be an old friend of Charles!"
As if hinting at something, the three good friends were made heavier, consciously or unconsciously, and then Hulse smiled and walked away.
Leah stared deeply at Noah, and after Huls took a step ahead, she hurriedly shouted to Noah, "Noah Hilterea, right?"
"Huh?" Noah turned her head curiously, Leah hadn't left yet.
"I'm Leah Tiana, Lord Huls's lieutenant!" Leah pushed her glasses, her tone unkind, as if warning.
"Look at you in that black uniform, have you also become a subordinate of Huls, but I want to tell you in advance, Lord Huls is very busy, please don't bother him too much, okay, I'm done, you can do it yourself!"
With that, Leah left the room and followed Huls.
Noah nodded, Huls may be really busy, just like when he wants to enjoy life, the busyness and pressure just come so suddenly, the soothing rhythm of the clouds is suddenly cut off, the work of the road level one after another, want to run head-on, what he wants to do after the arrival of the can't be implemented, but for his kind of loyal work, itself is also a kind of happiness.
Noah flipped through the old book, as if it had been excavated from some cemetery, although there was less dampness and more fragrance, and the writing on it was like birds, beasts, and birds, words that Noah had never seen.
"Text I don't recognize?!"
Noah is interested, there are many kinds of words in the Divine Domain, even if they are not commonly used in ancient styles, they naturally have their necessary structures and combinations, just like a few points connected in a line, from which the meaning of the words is deduced, almost a large amount of information is calculated in the mind, but three important keywords are calculated, "origin", "return" and "dusk".
Just as Leah had mentioned twilight in her words to Hulse earlier, similar to some kind of historical legend, the Divine Domain might be looking for something.
But this is not what Noah should be concerned about now, compared to these, what Hulse said before leaving, the goddess of ice, the owner of this book, Sherlock's old friend, several messages were instantly united, and Hulse must have his thoughts when he said these words, he naturally knows a lot of secrets.
As Noah's suspicion of Charles continues to deepen, and there is also a certain suspicion of the nibbler who has never shown up, then at least one person who knows Charr can be seen, since Hulse directly said that he is an "old friend", then he must know a lot, and the answer lies in that person.
Noah frowned almost habitually, and ran out of the palace with the thick book in her arms.
The destination is in the teaching area of the cold force operation department, and in terms of location, the sixth teaching area, which is almost a polar coordinate from Noah's position at this time, spanning half of the divine domain, in the final analysis, Noah has not walked in the divine domain, and the range of activities is only in the commercial area and the fourth teaching area, as well as the headquarters of the Holy Knights that occasionally go to a few times.
However, what puzzled Noah was that almost every time he walked to a place, the gods on the road looked at each other with ominous eyes, but compared to Noah, they looked at the black outfit on his body.
It's kind of weird!
Noah was depressed and wondered what kind of clothes Hulse had given her, perhaps she had been pulled into some organization by Hulse for some reason.
Soon, Noah became tired of such a gaze, and when she was bored, her body turned into a streamer and flew towards the sky.
Through the heavy clouds and mist, flying towards the destination at great speed, Noah put his hand on his forehead, resisting the oncoming wind, after really setting off, Noah knew the size of the Divine Domain, the height, and flew very high, looking around there was still no end, the first time I came to the Divine Domain, I didn't pay attention, and then I knew how big the Divine Domain was.
Then I don't know how long I flew, but I saw a sudden light in front of me, and the whole blue landmark was suspended motionlessly, and a large pool of water built not far away was used gradually.
There are not many people in the sixth teaching area, and there are only a few people in the cold force operation department, or it may be because the water element is not taken seriously, but even so, Noah walked in front, and the crowd of people in the crowd gave way one after another.
Noah didn't do anything herself, and the black outfit Noah was wearing was like an absolute pass, as if it was a hierarchical suppression, and it turned into looking up.
Noah sighed helplessly, and pulled a god to ask the whereabouts of the ice goddess.
The god seemed to be taken aback, and even looked at Noah with some trembling, "What's the matter, do you have something to do with me?!"
"Ah, that's it, do Class C know where it is?"
"Class C, Class C is there!" he said, pointing his finger in one direction.
"Thanks!" Noah nodded, and ran in that direction as quickly as she could.
And the god was stunned for a long time, and his expression was still a little excited, "I hope it can help you!"
Noah shook her head inexplicably, and soon went to the C class classroom of the cold force operation department, there is almost no difference between the various teaching areas, except for the actual combat teaching, most of the theoretical classes are conducted indoors, and the class has not yet ended, Noah simply waited outside for a while.
After a while, the class ended, and one by one the gods kept coming out of the classroom, and the moment they saw Noah, they all seemed to have lost their souls, and walked out slowly with their heads down, as if in awe, and poured around Noah.
It looked like Noah was surrounded.
At this time, a blue-haired, hot-bodied woman walked towards Noah, her long seaweed-like hair giving her an air of innocence and charm.
The expression on his face was slightly unhappy, and he looked like he wanted to find someone to fight.
"Kuroshio troops, you have been standing here and may embarrass us!"
"Kuroshio?!" Noah almost blurted out, and now everything made sense.
Even if they are fellow gods, they will not show much respect to a certain god, unless he has some special power in his hands, and their behavior and respectful attitude when Noah comes over is everything.
The so-called Kuroshio Force is a special force of the Divine Domain created by the god of thunder Hers, similar to the special army department, the members of the Kuroshio Force are excellent gods screened from the divine domain, mainly for the protection of the divine domain and the prevention of foreign enemy invasion, and sometimes responsible for reconnaissance of the enemy and assassination and other tasks.
But it's not so simple to want the Kuroshio troops, it is said that there are only 4 members of the Kuroshio troops in the entire god domain, in addition to the strong strength of the Kuroshio troops, that is, at least six layers of liberation or above, there is also a certain outstanding talent, and it has become a privilege obtained by the Kuroshio troops, that is, for various events in the god domain, they can be executed arbitrarily without the relevant personnel present, so ordinary gods are very in awe of the Kuroshio troops.
And this suit is the uniform of the Kuroshio troops, Noah sighed helplessly, and cursed Huls countless times in her heart.
"Who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for a god, the Ice Goddess," Noah smiled slightly, "but it doesn't look like I need to!"
The girl raised her eyebrows and smiled, "That's right, I'm the goddess of ice, just call me Julia!"
"Okay, I'm here to help the president return the book this time, so I'll accept it!"
Julia was surprised when she took the thick book handed over by Noah, "You came here just to return the book!"
"Of course not, I heard about you from the president, and I also want to ask you separately, so I can take a step to talk!"
"Good!"
The two nodded, then left the crowd and walked to a deserted place.
"That's it here, don't you have anything to say?"
"Then I'll have something to say," Noah hurriedly took a breath and said, "Julia, do you recognize Charles?
Boom~ Julia took a step back suddenly, Charles, as if this familiar name connected all of Julia's nerves, awakening the cruel memories of her past, the terrible scene quickly cooled and froze, and her heart seemed to be pinched by an invisible hand, suffocating terribly. The whole body was like a dead branch swaying in the autumn wind, his mind was blank, but his trembling limbs seemed to be rooted in place, unable to move half a step, and the whole person fell into endless despair.
"No!!" Julia shouted at the sky with her palms open.
Julia's face turned pale, her broad forehead twitched in pain, her eyebrows twisted into a straight gray line, her eyes bloodshot and her gaze frantic.
"No, I don't know!!I really don't know Charles!! you've mistaken someone!!" Julia looked very excited, tears flashing in the air from the corners of her eyes, and she herself fled as quickly as she could.
Noah was so surprised that she didn't stop Julia from leaving, maybe the memories weren't very good, and what was Sherlock good or bad for her? Charles, Charles's old friend, who had maddened her.
Thinking about it, Noah was suddenly stunned, she remembered one thing, Sherlock's past that Salter had told Noah.
"It was a tragic experience, a few years ago, and in the same situation as now, all of Charles' friends were killed by the Devourers, and when he saw the bloody and twisted corpses of his friends, Charles's spirit broke down several times!"
Noah was silent.
