Volume I

A black Mercedes-Benz car stopped in front of Liu Lei's house, and Liu Lei and Kerry stood at the door with smiles on their faces. The car door opened, and Rowling, dressed in a blue cloth wide skirt, walked out. Ashley threw herself into her arms and called out affectionately, "Teacher Rowling!" Rowling patted her lovingly and said, "Okay, introduce me to these people!" Ashley stood up by herself and walked towards Liu Lei and them with Rowling. Liu Lei and Kerry greeted him with smiles. Ashley introduced: "This is Lord Liu Lei, the president of the Dark Society!" Liu Lei stretched out his hand: "Hello! Teacher Rowling!" Rowling shook hands with him and said with a smile: "Ashley often told me about you in her letters, Lord Lord!" Liu Lei smiled and said, "Yes, that's my honor!" Ashley pointed to Kerry and introduced: "This is Lord Christopher, the first council member of the Dark Society. Kerry held out his hand first, "It's my pleasure to meet you, ma'am!" Rowling smiled and said, "The Dark Society's first Dark Archmage in five hundred years, your Excellency is a wizard!" "You've won the prize!" Kerry was flattered. Liu Lei snickered on the side. He stretched out his hand sideways and said, "Teacher Rowling, please!"

Everyone followed Liu Lei into the villa, "Please take a seat!" Liu Lei stretched out his hand to invite Rowling to sit down, Ashley sat next to the teacher, and Liu Lei and Kerry sat opposite them. "Teacher Rowling, what do you drink?" Liu Lei asked, and Rowling said casually, "Give me a cup of pine nut tea." Liu Lei looked at Ashley, and Ashley said, "I want red wine, the kind you have specially cellared." After saying that, he smiled slyly. Liu Lei made a painful gesture at her, then nodded to the servant standing aside, and the servant bowed down to prepare. Teacher Luo Lin looked at the servant and said in admiration: "President Liu, your Dark Association is really strong, even a servant has the strength of a viscount or above!" Liu Lei was secretly happy in his heart, it seemed that it was a wise decision to leave these super bodyguards. He smiled and said modestly: "Where, where, something has happened recently, so the first place here has been strengthened." "Anyone else dares to come to you for trouble?" said Rowling, feigning surprise. Liu Lei was stunned: "Teacher Rowling, don't you know my current situation?" He looked at Ashley: "Although you have not been active in the world for a long time, I think you should still know the development of the situation, right?" Teacher Rowling smiled lightly: "Yes, I know that you are now in the middle of the joint attack of the Druid Order and the Holy See, and you are in a difficult situation. That's what I'm here today. Liu Lei nodded and said, "Okay, what conditions do you think you will put forward for our cooperation?"

The servant brought a tray with pine nut tea that Teacher Rowling asked for and red wine that Liu Lei and others wanted. Rowling put it on her lips and exclaimed, "It's so fragrant!" She put down her teacup and said to Liu Lei, "Before I answer your question, let's talk about the possibility of our cooperation." Kerry put down his glass and sat up straight and said, "Miss, what do you mean by that?" Rowling said, "Quite simply, give me a reason to cooperate with you - you know, you are now under attack by the Holy See and the Druid Order, and we are involved at this time, do you think it is a wise move? Besides, I am very skeptical about the sincerity of your cooperation-if I remember correctly, you and the Druid Order were also allies at the beginning, but then it seems that the cooperation was not pleasant. Besides, you've never seen what we're capable of, so you're so sure we can help you?" she looked at the somewhat bewildered Liu Lei and Kerry and continued to smile and said, "Although I'm a woman, I'm not a fool - in my opinion, the reason why you are so anxious to ally with us is because you want to put up another target outside the Dark Society to distract the Holy See and the Druid Order - and that target is us. ”

Liu Lei raised his eyebrows and said: "Don't say that, in fact, cooperation is good for both of us." First of all, from our point of view, we have an ally to fight against the union of the Druid Order and the Holy See. In terms of camp, we are no longer alone, and our strength has been greatly improved. The odds are much better. He looked at Rowling and Ashley and continued: "From your point of view, joining forces with us at this time can be regarded as a relief in the snow, after this matter is over, even if the two of us organizations exchange the relationship of weal and evil, our dark society will naturally not sit idly by if you have anything to do in the future - this is a strong backup." In addition, it is unlikely that you want to join their side now, they have already been in an advantageous position in the war, so they will naturally not care about you, and will even take the opportunity to set a trap to eliminate you, reducing an obstacle for them to dominate the world in the future. If you want to make a comeback at this time, you can only choose us!" Rowling listened to Liu Lei's words with a teacup, Liu Lei finished speaking, and her tea was almost finished: "Is there anything else?" Liu Lei shook his head: "No." ”

Rowling shook her head: "Your reasons are not tempting. To be honest, I have a better option. "What choice?" asked Liu. Rowling put down the teacup and said: "First of all, you will lose under the attack of the two of them, and then the time is the time when they are infighting, at this time, they are evenly matched, and we will be very popular at this time, no matter which side we choose!" Liu Lei shook his head: "But you helped one side defeat the other, and what happened next is a copy of the two of them - you and your original partner infighting." Are you sure you can defeat them?" "Of course!" said Ms. Rowling, "First of all, they went through the war with you, and this was the first attrition, and then after the two of them fought infighting, this was the second attrition. And we, at most, appeared at the last moment of their infighting, and rarely showed our strength, and we had a great advantage in the preservation of strength. Liu Lei felt that he had nothing to say, he said to Rowling bluntly: "Then you can tell me directly, what kind of conditions do you need, you can consider joining forces with us?" Rowling smiled and said: "This is not a question of conditions, but a matter of fundamental interests, so if you can't convince me, I'm afraid, it will be difficult for us to have a chance to cooperate." Liu Lei looked at Ashley, who was about to speak, when Rowling held her hand.

Liu Lei was helpless: "It seems that it is difficult for us to impress you, it's a pity." Kerry said, "It doesn't seem that it's us who are not cooperating, it's you -- why are you here?" Rowling said, "No, I'm sincere, but you can't convince me to give up my idea." "You're here for Ashley, aren't you?" said Liu, "You're a good teacher and a good leader." He raised his glass and said, "Come on, come on, it's okay." We Chinese say: Cooperation is not sincere and benevolent, cheers!"

The cooperation with the witch world failed, and Liu Ti was in a bad mood. But if he thinks about it, it doesn't matter, anyway, as long as his injury is healed, plus Mienyi, even if he can't fight, at least he won't lose. The only thing to worry about is the low-level guild members below, they are more miserable, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape the pursuit of the Holy See and the Druid Order.

Today is Wednesday, and as is customary, the Pope meets with the congregation. Today, Cantat looks approachable in a casual outfit. Outside the door, a four-horse convertible was ready. Cantat boarded the car, and the convertible left the Papal Palace and slowly moved around, circling St. Peter's Square. The congregation faced the Pope, waved their hands in cheer, and some drew crosses on their chests and bent their knees in prayer. The car of Contat stopped at the entrance of St. Peter's Basilica in front of the square, and the contat was displayed in an open-top car, and thousands of congregants waved in waves.

Someone next to him had already connected the microphone, and a priest went up to try it out, nodding at Conta. Kontat walked over to the microphone: "God's people, brothers and sisters!" and the congregation knelt on the ground and prayed to God. Kontat continued his speech: "Today, we are gathered together at the feet of God, bathed in the light of God! But we must not forget that there are still many dark places in this world, and that the forces of darkness are still hidden and ready to move in all parts of the world! Hunger and poverty still haunt our fellow citizens in the distance! Come, I, Pope Kontat I, call you in the name of God! Let us fight together, for this world to have no more darkness, for this world to never have more pain and hurt, for the light of God to shine on the world forever, let's fight together!

The Disruptor picked up the remote control and turned off the TV, turned to the High Priest and said, "This hypocrite, pretending to be really likeβ€”if I didn't know his true face, I'm really a little moved." The High Priest smiled silently, and the Chaos shook his head. Liu Lei also turned off the TV, but not because he saw Cantatt, but because the TV was too loud and he was talking to Harold. "What the hell is going on with your golden barrier? It seems like a closed space, but it's not quite like it. Liu Lei thought about it for a long time in the past two days, but he still couldn't figure it out. Harold smirked and said that if you could figure it out so easily, it wouldn't be our trick. "Want to know?" he asked, and Liu Lei nodded. "But I don't want to tell you. Harold turned and went upstairs. Liu Lei's hateful teeth itched, and he gritted his teeth and scolded in a whisper: "Smiling tiger!" Cyrus walked down from the upstairs, Liu Lei immediately rushed up and said flatteringly: "Ah, you are up!" Cyrus didn't say anything, just nodded, Liu Lei waved his hands and threw out the messy things Lin Wei and Mienyi on the sofa, Cyrus sat down, and Liu Lei immediately poured a glass of wine and brought it over. Cyrus opened his mouth and said: "The golden barrier is ......" Cyrus didn't finish speaking, Harold's voice rang out again: "Cyrus I know you will definitely tell him......" He walked down quickly from the stairs: "Forget it, let's talk about it, you can't tell it for a long time." ”

Liu Lei immediately poured a glass of wine for Harold with a smile, Harold rolled his eyes, reluctantly took it, drank it dry, and Liu Lei immediately poured him another glass. "The Golden Barrier is a power that is deep in the blood of our bloodline, and we use an alternative method to activate it, which can instantly block the connection between all the forces in the space - without these connections, the opponent's energy cannot be used normally, and we can win without a fight. Liu Lei nodded, no wonder it was golden, it turned out that the color of the blood was golden. Harold yawned, Liu Lei disappeared in a flash, and in less than two seconds, he appeared again, holding a quaint wooden box in his hand, Liu Lei said courteously: "Haha, this is the finest cigar produced in Cuba, you can taste it!" He opened the golden lock on the box and opened the lid of the box, which was a row of cigars wrapped in silver leaf. Harold took out a faint golden light on his hand and flowed like water, the silver foil wrapped in the cigar was spread out, Harold picked up the brown cigar inside and sniffed it deeply on his nose, closed his eyes and tasted it for a long time before he opened his glasses and exclaimed: "Good thing, good thing!" Liu Lei immediately lit the fire, Harold lit the cigar with the flame, took a few puffs of enjoyment, turned his head and saw Liu Lei looking at him expectantly, Harold smiled, looked at the cigar in his hand and nodded and continued: "Is this method of stimulation......" He paused, Liu Lei immediately put the whole box in his hand, Harold pouted a little dissatisfied, Liu Lei immediately disappeared again, and when he reappeared, he held three boxes in his hand, one crystal one, one the same as the one just now, and one was platinum, and there were three single cigars in his hand, in three silver cylinders inlaid with gems. Liu Lei put it all in Harold's hand at once, and Harold suddenly smiled. It doesn't matter if Liu Lei is tired, anyway, someone else gave him it, and he doesn't smoke, so he puts it away.

Harold carefully put away his cigar and continued: "This method of stimulation is actually very simple, you first have to control a part of the space, and then evaporate a drop of blood, our current blood is golden, so the final barrier is also golden. The evaporated blood melts into the space you control, and the space turns golden. And then expand this space -- the size of the space you control in advance is very important, if it is large, the golden barrier that will be formed later will be large, and if it is small, the golden barrier formed later will be small, and there is a direct connection between the two! ”

Harold tapped him on the head: "Stupid! It depends on your own practice, if you practice too much, you will be very fast." If you're too lazy, don't use this trick. Liu Lei nodded. Harold gloated and said: "Boy, you have to practice hard, now your trouble is getting bigger and bigger - you also saw it in the dungeon hall of the Atlantis Sacrifice Temple last time, the sealing bead has fallen out of the sealing well, only relying on a sealing well, I'm afraid that in ten days, something will happen." Liu Lei was surprised: "Do you know what happened to me in Atlantis?" Harold said: "You forgot, I said, we all know what you do." Liu Lei patted his head: "Why am I so stupid!" He said to Harold and Cyrus: "You must have lived so long in the Atlantis era, right?" Harold nodded: "That's right, we were both almost a thousand years old at that time." "I would have asked you if I had known. Liu Lei muttered a sentence and then shouted upstairs: "Hoss!" Hoss opened the door to his room, and Hoss poked his head out and asked, "Master, is there something wrong?" "If you are told to come down, you will come down, where is so much nonsense!" "Yes!" Hoss jumped down quickly. Liu Lei reached out and took the necklace from his neck, handed it to Harold and asked, "Do you know this?" Harold took it and looked at it and replied, "Of course, this is Gwyneth, the goddess of arrows, one of the three female warriors of Atlantis. She shot the hydra Intrugent. Liu Lei asked, "What does the 'Arrow of the Stars' mean?" "'Arrow of the Stars'?" Harold asked, "What is it?" Liu Lei pointed to the chain around the neck of the goddess statue and told him, "This is the necklace, this ......" Harold smiled: "Oh, why do you call this the Arrow of the Stars?" hehe, it's a very apt name. The necklace didn't have a name before, so let's call it the 'Arrow of the Stars' - it was the symbol of the Seventeen Warriors, and each of them had one of these necklaces: Rayliver, Maiton, Willim...... They all have. "Well...... "Didn't the Atlanteans believe in the god of the sea, and why did they wear such ornaments?" Harold said, "No, they don't believe in the god of the sea - they believe in the god of the sky." This is completely to blame Cyrus, he casually said it wrong, and it turned out that the person whose name is Plato remembers his surname is really good......" Liu Lei looked at Cyrus, Cyrus kept a straight face and didn't speak, Liu Lei wanted to laugh but held it back, it was so hard. Hoss didn't care so much, laughed, Cyrus's pale face suddenly turned bright red, Hoss screamed and smashed through the wall and fell out, Liu was tired and heartbroken: "My seventeenth-century frescoes ......"

Harold continued: "They believed in the gods of the sky, but Cyrus never cared about these things - he was only interested in how to improve his strength - and then one day he met Plato, and the boy was so clever that he recognized Cyrus as a bloodline, or a bloodline that everyone admired, and immediately asked him some historical questions, and when it came to Atlantis, Cyrus really couldn't remember, so he casually perfunctory a word about him." "......I see," Liu Lei understood, and he continued to ask, "Do you know what was sealed under that sealing well?" Harold nodded and said, "I know, it's a Kanfiz person." "The Canfis?" Liu Lei asked, "who are they?" "They're from another dimension!" Harold replied.
