Chapter 6: Layout
In the downtown area, in the office at the top of the building, a white-haired man in a green suit is facing the wall, his expression a little gloomy. He is Varon. Born in England, Wallon is the founder and leader of the Black Hand. is a shrewd mastermind of criminal schemes; And in terms of fighting, he can even fight Jackie Chan alone.
"Varon, haven't you found the charm I wanted? Before the New Year's bell rings, I must get all the charms, or you won't want to get the treasure. "In a luxurious office, a dragon-shaped stone sculpture hung on the wall, with a scarlet glow in its eyes, made a sound.
"Holy Lord, you wait, I have already sent my men to find the Tiger Talisman, as for the other spells, they should be handed over to Area 13 by Jackie Chan and hidden inside Area 13, as long as we catch Jackie Chan, we will definitely be able to smell the address of Area 13."
When Valon mentioned three of his subordinates, he had a headache, and he didn't know why he was a mafia boss, the police's most wanted criminal, a powerful villain with both intelligence and force, why his subordinates were all these strange things, although they were loyal and don't worry, their abilities were really low and terrifying.
"I don't want to hear these explanations, if you can't give me the twelve charms before the New Year's bell rings, you'll never want to get the treasure." The Holy Lord's voice began to rise and fall, and he also regretted that he had found these incompetent mortals to collect runes for him, and handed them over to them, the Black Shadow Corps could not fight Jackie Chan, what a bunch of waste. The red glow in the eyes of the dragon-shaped statue on the wall dissipated, and the Holy Lord fell back into a deep sleep.
And standing in front of the Holy Lord, Varon's face was gloomy as if he could drip water, he was a mafia boss, if it weren't for the treasure, he would have been reprimanded by the Holy Lord like a grandson, thinking of this, his fists were clenched, and his nails were deeply embedded in the flesh.
Chirping!
The door was pushed open, and a huge figure blocked out the light from the outside world, and a huge shadow appeared on the ground.
"Boss, I'll bring back the Tiger Charm." Tru walked up to Varon, stretched out his big fan-like hand, and opened it, and a charms with this tiger pattern lay quietly in his hands.
Wa Long picked up the Tiger Talisman, and looking at this talisman that had caused him a lot of trouble, Wa Long's heart calmed down. Looking back at the statue that was not unusual, he made up his mind, and instead of putting the charm into the groove on the statue, he put it in his pocket, picked up the scepter on the table, and strode out of the door.
Seeing this, Tru hurriedly followed.

In front of the antique shop
Sheriff Black felt a little dizzy, and gently knocked his head, the discomfort slowly subsided, and when he opened his eyes, Xu Le's concerned expression was reflected in his eyes.
"Sheriff Black, are you alright?" Xu Le asked with "concern", since the matter has been settled, there is no need to remain hypnotized all the time, and the potion can only make people enter the hypnotic state for thirty minutes, which makes Xu Le a little pity. But when I think about it, if these primary magicians could control people at will, then the world would have been chaotic a long time ago.
Besides, the production of potions also requires a lot of materials, if it weren't for the fact that his relationship with his father was getting better and better, giving him some materials to practice. The search for these medicinal herbs alone can make him anxious, like a light sleeping flower, what kind of thing. It is no different from rhizomes and other plants, but the petals look like human faces, and there is no certain information channel for materials like this, so they are completely nowhere to be seen.
Blake was a little confused, recalling that he had come out to chat with Xu Le, but he was suddenly confused and stunned for a while. Could it be that I haven't slept well because of dealing with the mafia recently, and my physical condition is not good?
Blake thought that this was the only one that was the most likely, and it was not surprising that he had not had much rest recently, and that his schedule and rest were seriously out of balance, and that he was irritable and dizzy. It was as if a voice in Blake's heart was guiding him, and he automatically made up the reason for his dizziness.
"It's okay, I'm bothering you." Blake smiled heartily. "Okay, Sergeant Black, can you help me with my temporary residence permit, I only have a passport now, and I work in my father's shop this time, and I will be repatriated if I don't have a temporary residence permit qualification." This is the reason that Xu Le thought of, after all, he and Blake are not familiar with each other, and it is still a little strange to go out to talk suddenly, if there is not enough reason, Dad will definitely suspect him after the incident, so that even if he grabs the 12 charms, there is no way to return to Daddy's shop. Therefore, Xu Le used the temporary residence permit as an excuse that although the United States is a multiracial country, since the 911 incident, the review of foreign populations has become stricter.
Just like him, there is no problem with simply traveling, but if you do not leave the country after the visa expires, it is easy to be interrogated. And Blake happens to be a sheriff in District 13, although it is not a system, but he has some power and connections after all, and it is more than enough for him to help with a temporary residence card, and he still has a stable job.
Blake thought about it for a while, and also wanted to change Xu Le's favor, so he agreed to Xu Le's request: "Yes, I'll find someone to help you deal with this problem when I go back, and it'll be okay in two days, and I'll give it to you next time I come over." ”
Xu Le grinned, then chatted with Blake for a few words, and then said goodbye and returned to the store.
In the room, Dad was checking the magic book, after all, Jackie Chan didn't grab the tiger charm this time, and after this time, all the charms have been found. This means that if the mafia wants to get more spells, they can only come to District 13 to grab it, but thinking of those people in District 13 who disdain magic, Dad is a little annoyed, these people have not really experienced the horror of magic, and the technology products they are proud of can be feared by some powerful magicians as long as they are prepared in advance.
Seeing Xu Le push the door in, Dad asked, "What did you talk about with Blake?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just my temporary residence permit, after all, I'm going to stay here for a long time, and I don't have any friends here, so I'll ask Sheriff Black to help me deal with it." Xu Le smiled and answered Daddy's question.
Daddy didn't suspect him either, and continued to check the magic book with a sigh.
"Daddy, I just heard from Sheriff Black that he asked the Varon from the captured mafia members that they were collecting spells because they were following the instructions of a mysterious man named the Holy Lord." Xu Le felt that the plot was already chaotic, so he prepared in advance. This so-called arrested mafia was made up by him, and as for Sheriff Black, Dad didn't look at him very well, so naturally he wouldn't ask in person for this kind of thing.
"Holy Lord, where do you seem to have heard this name?" Daddy always felt that this and even the name of the Holy Lord was very familiar, and he was worried that he couldn't remember it, so he took out a huge red book from the shelf on the side and flipped through it.
Daddy flipped through page after page, and as for the portrait he turned over, he stirred up his memories and exclaimed, "I found it, the Holy Lord is the Demon of Fire, one of the eight demons. Originally sealed into hell by eight immortal gods along with his other seven compatriots, and later sent back to the world by the other seven demons, but he treacherously ruled the earthly kingdom alone, until nine hundred years ago, the Lin dynasty rebelled against the rule of the Holy Lord, and the Holy Lord was turned into a statue by Luo Pei using massively multiplayer magic, and his own divine power in addition to fire was broken down into twelve spells. No wonder the mafia has been collecting charms, it turns out that the Holy Lord wants to be resurrected. ”
The fog that had been shrouded all along, instantly became clearer. Daddy had always wondered why these guys could always know the location of the spell, and the principle was that the original owner of the spell was looking for it.
"It's terrible, this terrifying demon like the Holy Lord, if it weren't for the fact that a large number of magicians suppressed him together in ancient times, plus Lu Dongbin sacrificed himself to seal him, who can beat him now, my old bones can't afford it." Daddy's brow furrowed, and there was some worry in his tone, but not fear.
Xu Le saw his father's expression and said secretly Sure enough, he had already felt in the original book that no matter how weak the Holy Lord was, it was still a powerful demon, and it was a fantasy to say that any magician could defeat him. Daddy, who single-handedly sealed many demons in the animation, his strength is also unfathomable, according to Xu Le's speculation, Daddy's strength is not weak even if it is comparable to the eight warriors who sealed demons in ancient times.
