Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Chance Encounter

"Ping Pong.." The sound kept ringing, and the dust fell in the dim light.

On the sofa sat a beautiful girl with long flaxen hair, and now her good-looking eyebrows were tightly wrinkled, and she seemed to be in a very bad mood.

"It's noisy.." The girl finally stood up and shouted, "I'll go get rid of them."

The girl was about to leave, when a deep voice suddenly sounded: "Bella, sit down!"

There was a pang of anger on the girl's face, but she sat down angrily.

"Why don't you let me go, Berg, we've done this every time before... With a little trick, they will think that it is a ghost and will not dare to walk in half a step again." Bella said helplessly: "Then we don't have to hide here and eat dust."

"This time it's different." The man who was called Berg was a man over thirty years old, with a faint beard, a calm temperament, and a mature and attractive appearance.

Berg said lightly: "What we have to do now is to hide ourselves and not let anyone find out about us... If you did it, ordinary people would probably believe that it was a ghost, but no totem master would think so."

Bella opened her mouth to defend something, but she had to admit that Berg was right, and she could only ask depressedly, "How long are we going to stay here like rats?"

Berg stood up, walked to the fireplace in the room, and added a few sticks of dry wood to make the fire even stronger, and then he slowly spoke, "Yes, Bella, you have the right to know."

Bella's eyes lit up, and she asked a little impatiently, "Mission?" I want to know this... We've been here for almost three months now, and I still don't even know why I'm here?"

Berg's voice sounded slowly with the crackling of dry wood: ". . . We have received news that the royal family has obtained a secret treasure that is of great significance and may have a huge impact on the world of totemists. In a week's time their men will pass through Fort Mingte with such a treasure, and what we have to do is to snatch it from the hands of the royal family."

"So, the people of the Church of the Dark Demon God are also here for this secret treasure?" Bella couldn't help but interject.

Berg turned around and looked at her with a frown, "You already know that the people from the Dark Demon God Church are coming..."

Bella pouted, "Do you think I can't hear what you and Edward are secretly talking about behind my back?.. Come on, it's a little bit bigger."

"Okay.." Berg was a little helpless, nodded and said: "That's right, the people of the Dark Demon God Sect have also gotten the news, and they will definitely snatch it at that time, which means that we have to snatch that secret treasure from the hands of two groups of people, so if it can appear later, the greater the benefit for us."

Bella blinked in disbelief: "Two groups of people? just the three of us?.. Berg, you're not kidding, are you?"

"Of course it's more than that.." Berg continued: "There is another adult who will come, and his strength can make up for everything.."

Bella's heart fluttered when she noticed Berg's eyes, but she quickly turned her attention elsewhere: "What kind of treasure is it?.. It can make so many people snatch.."

Berg looked at the burning wallfire and shook his head slowly, "No one has seen it except the royal family. All I know is that it is an emerald with mysterious powers.."

Emerald?..

Bella muttered, inexplicably looking forward to the upcoming battle.

...

Carlo successfully moved into the big house he had just bought, perhaps because of his generosity and boldness, which made the old man of the Housing Exchange Department feel a little guilty, and the cleaned house was unexpectedly good.

The surrounding neighbors knew that the haunted house had a new occupant, a handsome and polite young man, who was said to be a scholar. Well, it's anatomy, and it's a really strange and weird subject.

The young man soon became acquainted with the residents of the neighborhood, and all of them had a good impression of this very personable and well-cultivated young man, and secretly did not know how many times he scolded the fat old man who bought the house.

Someone couldn't bear to secretly tell the young man about the haunted house, but he didn't care much, and said with a smile that he lived very comfortably.

Perhaps the gods did not want this kind child to be harmed, and the young man lived in the house without any accidents, and gradually everyone forgot about the haunting.

"Hey, Mr. Carlo.." Old John, who was driving the carriage to deliver fruits and vegetables to the nobles in the city, greeted Carlo loudly, "The weather is really nice today, are you going to go out?"

"Yes.." Carlo closed the door and smiled in response, "I was about to go to Madame Mannie's bakery, and I was running out of food. ”

"You've made a wise decision, and her family's brioche bread has always been the most popular in Fort Setc.." Old John laughed and stopped in front of Carlo, and took a few carrots from the seat behind him, "Take them and taste them, sir, Old John just dug it up in the morning, and brought fresh soil, and it will not taste bad when used to make soup."

"Oh, thank you.." With a look of surprise on his face, Carlo took the carrot and took out a gold coin from his pocket and put it on the carriage, "This is your reward." ”

"No, no, no.." Old John loudly refused, "Sir, this gold is enough to buy my carrot of carrots."

"Take it.." Carlo humorously said, "This is an extra bonus for the hard-working old John."

After speaking, he bowed his head slightly and left with a smile.

Looking at Carlo's distant back, someone next to him sighed: "Mr. Carlo has a heart of gold."

"yes.." Old John chimed in with a complicated expression, "He's a really good man."

Great good guys?

Hearing the round behind him, Carlo couldn't help but chuckle...

Andil ran out of breath, with a couple of long bread sticks in his hands, and at the door, a well-dressed young man was waiting for him.

"Alan. Andil saw the young man with a heartfelt smile on his face, "You're here." ”

Alencia nodded slightly, his eyes fell on the bread in Andiel's hand, he thought about it, took out two gold coins from his pocket and handed them to Andiel: "These breads have been bought, you go and get a new one to deliver it.."

Andil took the gold coin and was stunned for a moment, "Then I'll go find you money.."

"No.." Alencia grabbed him, shook her head, and said, "I mean, the money is all yours, no need to look for it.."

"But.." Andil was about to say something, but Alencia had already interrupted him: "Andiel, I know that you have two younger sisters and a younger brother, and your whole family lives on the meager salary you earn working in a bakery... It's too reluctant.."

"Mrs. Mannie would often give me some free bread crumbs." Andil argued with some stubbornness.

"It's not enough to eat bread." Alencia looked straight at Andil and said solemnly: "Take this money and go buy some meat... Don't be embarrassed.. Andy, we're best friends, aren't we?"

Andil clutched the gold coin tightly, tears of emotion were rolling in his eyes, and he finally chose to accept the gift, wiped his face, and showed a sincere smile, "You're right, Alan.. We are best friends.."

Alencia was very satisfied with Andiel's performance, and there was nothing better than winning the friendship of the future Heavenly Flame King for just a few gold coins.

At this moment, a gentle voice came from behind the two: "Hey, little Andy, are you crying?"

Alencia saw a hint of surprise on Andiel's face, and then shouted with a little shyness, "Mr. Carlo.. I didn't.. You must be reading it wrong.."

The voice laughed heartily.

Alencia turned her head to meet a pair of beautiful pale red eyes, and the handsome young man glanced at him with a light smile, and then turned to Andil and asked, "Is this your friend?" ”

"Yes. Andil nodded proudly and added, "His name is Alencia, my best friend." ”

"Little Andy has a rich friend, it's really enviable.."

"Mr. Carlo. Don't make fun of me anymore.."

The sound of the two talking and laughing kept coming, but Alencia's mind kept replaying the scene when she had just met those red eyes.

His heart was beating fast, inexplicably, as if he had been targeted by something terrible.

He didn't know the man named Carlo, but there was a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen him before, or that he had seen himself before.

It's impossible, after being reborn, no one will recognize you after your own transformation..

Moreover, he didn't feel the smell of the totem master from this Carlo, but why did it put so much pressure on himself...

Alencia's mind was in turmoil for a moment, panicking like a little beast falling into a trap.
