A few days later. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Kaqi arrived as promised, returned from the giant wall to the deserted stronghold, and reported to Du Dian: "Young master, everything you explained has been prepared, and Nicotine and Glary are waiting for you to go back. ”

Dudian sat on the stone with Helissa, looking at the sunset in the distance, and when he heard Kuachi's words behind him, he didn't look back, but asked, "The news didn't leak out, did it?" ”

"No, I only told Glari and Nicotine, and your two friends, as you told me, and no one else knew. ”

Du Dian nodded slightly, looking at the dusk sunset, and thought mockingly in his heart, the night is coming, even the glorious sun has been eroded to blood red and hideous, is this a sign of something?

He got up slowly, patted the dust on his sleeve, took Helissa's slender hand, and said softly, "We can go home." ”

Helissa stood up silently, her expression indifferent.

Kachi looked at Helissa who stood up, his heart felt a slight throbbing, every time he faced this girl, he had a terrifying feeling of living in a cage with a tiger, and he couldn't help but want to leave as soon as possible, but he knew that this girl's status in Dudy's peace of mind seemed to be quite high, because he had never seen this cold-blooded teenager so intimate and gentle with anyone.

Dudian put a few fully charged super batteries into the hunter's backpack, handed them to Katch to carry, and then took the lead under the rope in front of the giant wall, he glanced at Helissa, and in the instructions he taught, there was no instruction to climb, and immediately reached out and hugged her waist, and grabbed the rope with the other hand, and the lower end of the rope between his legs, and climbed up with one hand.

Kachi was worried that the rope would be too heavy and broken, so he didn't dare to follow, and stood on the ground and watched the figures of Dudian and Helisa gradually move towards the top of the giant wall, but his heart was secretly awe-inspiring, but he didn't expect that this girl with a mysterious origin and made him feel extremely terrifying, actually followed Dudian so much, the intimacy between the two was fully revealed, and he became more and more jealous of Dudian in his heart, as well as awe.

Du Dian didn't look down, climbed to the top of the giant wall in one breath, dragged his arm hard, jumped up from the rope with the help of his strength, landed on the giant wall, glanced at Kuqi who had just climbed the rope under his feet, did not urge, while waiting, he looked at the mountains and rivers in the giant wall, the infinite scenery, and the corners of his mouth slightly hooked a trace of arc.

After a while, Kaqi climbed up the giant wall in sweat and said, "I've kept the young master waiting." ”

"Let's go." With one hand in his arms, Dudian walked to the rope on the other side of the wall and slid down the rope.

……

……

Night is creeping in.

Starry with stars, the night sky is beautiful.

In front of a luxurious manor in a prosperous town in the business district, horse-drawn carriages arrived one after another, and the carriages did not stop outside the gate like ordinary aristocratic visitors, but galloped directly into a spacious open space in the manor, and the people who got out of the carriages, wearing peculiar masks, entered the brightly lit manor castle under the guidance of the attendants.

Unlike the silent manor, deep underneath the manor, there is a bustling sound, like a lively market during the day.

Masked figures roam the square, picking out the materials they need or the latest news from the district, as well as alchemists and potions masters.

Hawkeye stood at the window, quietly looking at the familiar night scene in the square, and after a while, the door behind him was suddenly pushed open, and a seventeen or eighteen-year-old handsome young man stepped into the room, with a proud face, and said, "Hawkeye, the meeting will start soon, how are you preparing the meeting materials that the elder asked you to prepare?" ”

Hawkeye frowned slightly, he didn't like to be disturbed by others, and at this moment it was exactly the person he liked the most, doing what he didn't like the most, a trace of killing intent flashed in his golden eyes, but he quickly hid it, including the anger in his heart.

He turned around and smiled, "Secretary Marr, I have prepared the materials and can hand them over to the elders at any time." ”

The arrogant young man snorted coldly and said, "When you're ready, come to the conference room, don't make everyone wait for a long time." ”

"Okay, I'll be right here." Hawkeye smiled.

The arrogant young man immediately turned around and left, grabbed the doorknob with his backhand and took it with him at will, and with a bang, the door shook and the door frame trembled slightly.

Hawkeye's smile disappeared suddenly, and he grabbed an expensive art cup in his hand and threw it out, slamming it against the wall and shattering it. He snorted coldly, grabbed the materials on the bookshelf next to him, and walked out of the room.

In the conference room, seven figures sat on both sides of the round table, and in the top position, there was a rickety old man, his face was full of wrinkles, no different from the ordinary old man on the street, on his finger, wearing an inconspicuous dark green jade wrench, only a few people knew, the price of this wrench alone was enough to be worth fifty percent of the wealth of any of the six major consortia!

The conference room was pushed open, and the young man came in, the arrogance on his face had long disappeared, and he bent down to the old man with great humility, and said in a low voice: "Elder, Hawkeye has come." ”

The old man's eyelids were still half-squinted, and he didn't react, just hummed softly.

Soon, Hawkeye entered the room, and he glanced at the young man who was standing behind the old man, who could no longer see any arrogance on his face. He only glanced at it, then turned his head and said to the old man, "Elder, I have prepared the materials you wanted. As he spoke, he handed the information in his hand to the old man.

The old man didn't answer.

The young man deftly took it and respectfully placed it on the table in front of the old man.

The old man was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Everyone, in a few days, it will be the Council of Elders. According to the performance of our ninth district in the past six months, you think that after this elders' meeting, how many can we still rank in the ninth district? ”

Hearing this, the faces of the six people under the seat changed slightly, and one of the hot and plump women immediately said: "Elder, this is not our fault, if you want to blame, you can only blame the elder who took office, he didn't do anything after taking office, and he also dismissed our six councilors, and imprisoned me in the dungeon, fortunately, the elder you came, and I was liberated, otherwise, the power of our ninth district would be even weaker." ”

"yes!" Another burly strong man said in a low voice, "Elder, we have done our best to develop, but after the previous elder removed the status of the six councilors, he suddenly disappeared, during his tenure, he did nothing, before our ninth district was violated, he completely ignored it, causing us heavy losses, if it weren't for him, our ninth district would definitely be able to continue to maintain the identity of the ninth district, and there was even the possibility of rising!" ”

"Not bad!" The other person immediately seconded, and said: "Elder, if you don't come in time, we will have no one in the ninth district to lead, and it will be even more chaotic, and it is estimated that it is possible to be at the bottom, although I have vigorously cultivated a lot of potential newcomers these days, but after all, time is in a hurry, I believe that when the next elder meeting comes, we will definitely be able to restore the ...... of the ninth district ranking."

The old man raised his hand slightly, stopped the others who wanted to speak, and said indifferently: "I know that the previous elder has a great responsibility, but during my tenure, how did you complete the tasks that were assigned?" ”

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, looking at each other, and their faces were ugly.

"I'm disappointed that you, as a member of Parliament, have behaved so indifferently, and so am the Speaker!" The old man said indifferently.

Hearing the word "Speaker", everyone's faces changed slightly, and a trace of awe flashed in their eyes.

"This time, the ranking will definitely fall." The old man said slowly: "However, for the sake of the bad influence of the previous elder, I will bear this matter with all my might!" But hopefully, at the next elders' meeting, you won't make it hard for me anymore, because if I'm hard to do, it's going to be hard for everyone, you know? ”

Everyone had different thoughts, and they bowed their heads together and said, "Yes." ”

"Okay." The eyes in the old man's eyes twitched slightly, glanced at everyone, and instructed Hawkeye on the side: "Pass the information to everyone, everyone, this is the latest information on the eighth and eleventh districts that have mainly been against us in the past six months, everyone take a good look at the number of their three-star alchemists has increased, as well as the identity of a new five-star potions master born in the eighth district." ”

"There's a new five-star potions master in District 8?"

Everyone was slightly startled, and immediately grabbed the information and looked at it.

The old man said slowly: "When this meeting of elders is over, I am going to capture the Rhea neighborhood in the East District, which is the ancestral land of the Morse family in the Huasheng Consortium, if I can capture it, it will be possible to choke the throat of the Morse family, and in this way, it can also make up for the losses caused by the previous elders......" Speaking of this, a cold wind suddenly blew from outside, making the temperature in the room cold in an instant, and it was cold.

The old man frowned slightly, and was just about to tell the young man to close the door tightly, when suddenly, he felt a cold palm on his shoulder, and at the same time, an extremely flat voice sounded in his ears: "Everyone, are you talking about me?" ”
