When Wen Wen met Lucian, Lucian was arguing with Zhou Yiyu.

Judging by the flushed look on his face, he was clearly furious.

He should indeed be angry.

Any normal person would be unhappy with the act of asking for the relics of his favorite wife.

The problem is that the person who made this "excessive and rude" request now is also his biggest reliance on revenge for his wife, not to mention that Zhou Yiyu still has the bottle of Michael's blood he needs in his hand.

"Why can't you change your conditions? I can give you more beautiful yuan!" Seeing that Zhou Yiyu refused to back down, Lucian asked angrily.

"Klein used to pay dollars to the guys who tried to kill you, did you see him succeed? ”

This thing has no temptation at all for either the North or the West, or its only purpose is to give everyone a reason to come forward in this world.

"But this is my wife's relic, why do you have to get it?"

Gentleness strode over, "The reason never matters, Mr. Lucian. The point is what you're willing to pay for what you want. Is it simply to keep a dead thing for the sake of longing, or to exchange it for greater power to take revenge?"

Lucian replied, "But it's also possible that I don't have to pay such a price to kill Victor anyway." ”

His tone was resolute, just as the adventurers of the West End had refused to accept gentleness before them. The difference is that now the people in the West District have learned to respect Shen Yi's opinions, but it is Lucian who has begun to "play tricks".

This is also a common human disease, people always blindly believe that if others can do it, they can do it themselves. Especially if a leader does not have this kind of self-confident character, then he does not deserve to be a good leader at all.

Obviously, if Lucian was not taught some lessons, he would not bow to gentleness.

But the problem is gentleness, and they can't just let Lucian suffer defeat so easily - this is a battlefield, not a school, and one defeat is often enough to kill.

Thinking of this, Wen Wen couldn't help but feel a headache.

If Shen Yi was here, with his three-inch tongue, he would definitely be able to convince Lucian - he could always grasp the key to the problem.

So what's the key to Lucian?

Gentleness began to emulate Shen Yi's train of thought, intentionally or unintentionally.

She finally realized that the problem was still in the way of trading.

Lucian's hatred for Victor and the vampire family is not only due to the fact that the werewolves themselves are enslaved, but it is more due to his love for his wife, otherwise he would not have been so happy as a slave captain (see Part 3, Tales of the Night).

After the death of Lucian's wife, Lucian led the werewolf rebellion, and although the banner was those old-fashioned liberal arguments, the impetus for revenge was always the death of his wife.

And this relic is precisely the one thing that carries all his thoughts about his wife.

Trading for Lucian's keys was completely unacceptable to Lucian.

It's like if you promise a young man that I can make you a rich man, but you have to pay a price, which is to castrate yourself, but anyone in their right mind will not accept it.

But if you change the condition to abstinence for one year, the situation may be very different.

Thinking of this, Gentle knew what to do.

She smiled slightly, "I think you misunderstood, Mr. Lucian, but we don't really want you to give us your wife's relics. ”

"What do you mean?"

The gentle brain spun rapidly, and as he carefully worded the words, he replied slowly: "Actually...... We just wanted to do one thing with it. ”

"What's the matter?"

"You know, the reason why Victor was able to become one of the three elders of vampires was because he was the first vampire to be assimilated by Marcus, which made him second only to Marcus in strength. And with Marcus's strong strength, in front of Victor, he had to bow his head, and that was because ......"

"He had been a lord, a leader with great secular power, and he had an army of his own. ”

"Yes, exactly. You know that it takes a lot of attrition to maintain the presence of an army. ”

Lucien frowned, "What the hell do you want to say?"

Gentleness had cleared the train of thought in her mind, and she said quickly, "We suspect that Victor has a lot of wealth buried in secret. Not a dollar, but a large amount of gold, antiques, precious jewels from the XII century......"

Lucien understood a little, and he looked at Gentle in surprise: "What the hell, why do you think that?"

"Mercenaries fight for money. Gentle replied naturally, she found that one of the consequences of learning Shen Yi was that she had to be more shameless - a few minutes ago she had been saying that Meiyuan meant nothing to them, and now she had to use more Meiyuan as an excuse.

"What does that have to do with my wife's relics?"

"As far as we know, Victor has also been hoping to get this thing back. In recent centuries, Victor's financial situation has not been too good, at least he has not made him more brilliant than before. ”

Lucien understood: "So you suspect that my wife's relics are the key to his treasury, or one of the keys. ”

Smiled softly and did not answer positively. The best way to convince the other party of a lie is to let him deduce the results himself, and it is clear that Lucian has lived up to her expectations.

King Kong had already guessed the gentle thoughts, and he immediately said, "We don't really need your wife's relic, we just want to see if it can bring us what we want." If you can leave it to us for safekeeping, we can return it to you later. ”

Lucien looked at King Kong, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally nodded: "If that's the case, I can consider accepting it." But your speculation seems baseless, and I'm worried that you'll get nothing by then...... It's a bet!"

King Kong replied nonchalantly: "We can even bet on our own lives, what is there not to bet on a treasure?"

"How many days are you going to borrow?"

Gently replied, "Ten days." If we don't get anything in ten days, it's still yours. ”

"Then I accept it. Lucian said as he took the pendant from his neck and handed it to Zhou Yiyu.

"Happy working together!"

"Happy working together!"

――――――――――――――――

There was darkness under the ruins.

Shen Yi touched the wall beside him and sighed: "It doesn't seem to be easy to go out." ”

Due to the incomplete explosion, the two walls of the elevator passage did not completely collapse, and because of the support of the elevator above, a hollow area appeared under the rubble.

Shen Yi and Serena were located in this hollow area, avoiding the fate of being buried alive.

But it's not easy to get out.

Even if Shen Yi already had great strength, he still couldn't break out from under the huge ruins of hundreds of tons of reinforced concrete—if his strength reached the fourth difficulty, maybe there would be no problem.

He tried to open the team channel again, but there was still no response, and Kita didn't know how to block the channel's communication function, so that he couldn't contact Gentle They.

"Looks like we're going to have to dig slowly. Serena replied.

Shen Yi shook his head: "No, the air can't last that long." ”

He looked back at Serena: "It seems that I can only use the teleportation bead to get out of here first, and then gather my soldiers to dig this place up quickly." Or call my teammates over and bring you out when you get the microcosm. But either way, I have to leave you first. ”

"No!" exclaimed Serena.

She suddenly hugged Shen Yi: "Don't leave me." ”

Shen Yi frowned slightly, and Serena had already wrapped her arms around Shen Yi's neck: "I'll be scared if you leave." ”

This is not like the words of a deathbringer!

However, at that moment, Serena looked at Shen Yi with an extremely serious expression: "I need you by my side." ”

"But ......"

"No, but. Don't forget I'm a vampire...... I can survive without air. I know you can too, right?"

“...... If...... It's not too long. ”

"Then stay here and stay with me...... We'll get out, but I don't want to be now...... I think maybe we should take advantage of this incredible opportunity before we go out. ”

Her voice gradually deepened, and the whole person was completely nestled in Shen Yi's arms.

Suddenly, Shen Yi felt that his body was hot, and at some point, Serena had taken off her coat.

His hand touched Serena's tender body, the delicate and smooth skin brought a silky feel, and Shen Yi's body stiffened slightly: "You ......"

He wanted to say it but didn't say it, Serena's fiery red lips were imprinted on Shen Yi's mouth.

She took his hand and lowered it to her chest, where the peaks were stacked, soft and elastic.

Damn it!

Shen Yi couldn't stop his heartbeat anymore, and his physiological instinct reacted quickly.

Especially after Serena took his hand and slid down, allowing him to touch that more mysterious and seductive region......

He hurriedly pushed Serena away: "No, Serena ......"

"What's wrong?" In the dark, Serena looked at Shen Yi in surprise: "Don't you want it?"

Shen Yi sighed: "To be honest, I never planned to do so. ”

"Why?"

"......" Shen Yi had a headache.

He did not deny that he had a crush on Serena, especially since she had to be so similar to Anna, and even their temperaments had a lot in common. But that didn't mean he was going to have something to do with Serena.

It's not because he doesn't want to, it's that he feels the need to be responsible for meekness.

Gentleness is not the kind of woman who can accept that her man has many women, and he is not the kind of man who can make his own woman sad and sad.

He doesn't mind the affair, but only if he doesn't have a woman by his side who needs him to take responsibility.

Now Serena has put him in a very awkward position.

"I ...... I don't know what to say, Serena. Shen Yi carefully worded: "It's just...... I don't think we can ......."

When he said the word "no", Serena's body stiffened visibly.

"But you said you loved me. She muttered.

This sentence was like an electric current, completely numbing Shen Yi's body.

Suddenly, he found himself inadvertently jumping into a trap he had dug for himself, and now, he couldn't get out.

Serena seemed to understand something.

She took a few steps back: "I see, you never loved me, you lied to me. ”

"No, it's not like that, Serena. Shen Yi hurriedly said, he wanted to explain but didn't know where to start.

Serena had already laughed bitterly, and her voice was a little whimpering: "I'm so stupid, I would believe you." You saved me again and again, for me to be born and die, I was moved by this, and I actually liked you because of it...... No, you're not for me, you have another purpose, I should have understood. I remember, the first time I saw you, you said I looked like your friend...... You don't love me, you love your friends. ”

Hell, this isn't a wonderful misunderstanding.

Shen Yi hurriedly said, "Serena, listen to me, it's not like that. ”

"What's that like?"

Shen Yi had a headache.

He didn't know how to explain it, but he knew that if he couldn't give a perfect explanation, then he would lose Serena's trust - which would be fatal in the current situation.

When words don't solve the problem, the only way is to act.

He put his arm around Serena and kissed the tip of her nose.

Serena closed her eyes slightly, feeling the warm feeling that the man brought to her.

The naked/naked body hugged Shen Yi, and she whispered, "Enter my ......"
