At the training ground at the back of the manor, Jack demonstrates to Luna the grenade and time bomb, a handy and powerful gadget that quickly becomes a favorite of the Duchess, who turns the oval grenade in amazement, imagining the weapon on the battlefield. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Can this also be mass-produced?"

"Yes, and it's cheap. "That's right, cheapness is the advantage of grenades, compared to the four-ring spell scroll that may not be bought for five or six hundred gold, the grenade with the three-ring spell as the core does not need much good writing materials, and can still achieve the same effect," the cost is only fifty gold coins. ”

"Oh ~ fifty gold? This weapon is full of potential, it will take the world by storm and become the favorite of adventurers. I can already imagine it being a big sale. Unconsciously licking her red lips, the Duchess looked sideways at Jack, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and her eyes were filled with seductive smoke.

Jack smiled and said sincerely, "Of course, Lady Luna, if you can make me your most faithful collaborator, companion, the future benefits of this weapon will be all yours." ”

"Hoo~" Luna chuckled, she ripped off the safety bolt of the grenade, as if she wanted to try the weapon herself, but she didn't seem to know how to use it, and still held it in her hand.

"Throw, Lady Luna, this is timed, this is timed!" Seeing this scene, Jack suddenly shouted a little anxiously, just holding it in his hand in a daze, what should I do if it explodes? If the other party was really killed like this, he probably wouldn't be able to get out of this manor today, for a duchess with a strong power and skill, it is impossible for a strong duchess in her manor to not be completely loyal to her.

Hearing Jack's anxious warning, Mrs. Luna immediately threw the grenade in a panic, but it took time to speak and react, and the grenade exploded violently shortly after it was released.

The firelight and heat swelled into tiny suns, and the flying shrapnel lurked in the deafening sound, turning into the sharpest thorns.

The next moment, the world turned into black and white, and although he was helpless, Jack had to use [World], his biggest hole card so far.

Although Jack did not know who Lady Luna was, he could not allow the Duchess to die here, in her own estate.

Jack saw a piece of shrapnel touch Lady Luna's left arm, burning a scorch circle on her skin, which would presumably pierce her slender arm once the time stopped.

Eight seconds was enough time for Jack to move Lady Luna out of the blast's splash range, but he retracted the steps he had just taken. Because, he saw a figure in the firelight, this figure had appeared at the moment of the explosion, that is, when Jack opened and stopped, the ghostly speed made Jack vigilant, according to the judgment of [Star], this abrupt person is estimated to be a seventh- or eighth-level professional.

With such a strong man in front of him, naturally there was nothing to do with Jack, and he slowly waited until the magic power was exhausted, and the time was over.

In the next moment, a piece of shrenchnel pierced Luna's arm, creating a bloody hole, and the rest of the fire and shrapnel were blown away by the raging wind.

"Ding Ling is long, Ding Ling is ......"

The shrapnel fell to the ground with a staggered sound.

When the wind and dust cleared, Jack finally saw the strong man who suddenly arrived, with blonde ponytail fluttering in the wind, black and white butler clothes, and a seductive body with bumps and bumps, it was unbelievable that the beautiful housekeeper who greeted Jack before was actually the super strong man who extinguished the explosion in an instant.

Even with the assistance of [Star], Jack couldn't see Li's movements clearly, he could only see the solemn and rigorous posture of the housekeeper at the end.

"Whew~ The power is good~ but it scared me!"

Lady Luna laughed.

At this time, Jack noticed Luna's abnormality, the wound pierced by the bullet had healed as before, Luna seemed to be completely unaware of her injury, and smiled excitedly and satisfied, of course, the charm that was unique to a young woman was still there.

Jack didn't speak.

That's when Luna notices Jack's gaze.

"What's wrong?" she asked with a soft smile and a seemingly casual look.

“...... No, it's just, your wounds ......" After a moment's hesitation, Jack glanced at Leigh and finally asked out loud.

"I've just been injured? Oh...... You see, the wound should be healed, and this is the result of my research, the first step to immortality, strong resilience. Luna continued, "You should know that eternal life is everyone's desire, and as you can see, my research has made a huge breakthrough, but not everyone has the right to follow me. You showed me your sincerity, and it just so happened that I liked your sincerity very much. So, I accept your request, do you really want to be my companion?"

"Of course, dear lady, for the sake of eternal life, I am willing to follow you!"

"Yes, you have a good eye, Earl Scarlet. ”

"You can call me Jack. Jack bowed to his chest and showed his respect and follower, "Please let me assist you, follow you, let you ascend to eternal glory, and I can live forever under the light." ”

"Jack, you're a good talker. Luna sighed meaningfully, and she walked up to Jack and ran through Jack's hair with her long, white fingers, and then, she took Jack's right hand to support his chest, and said in a soft and lovely voice, "Come on, I'll show you the results of my research." ”

“...... Okay!" Jack, who hesitated for a moment, finally felt that he had a chance to lose, nodded.

When Luna opened the door with the magic key, a thick smell of blood rushed into Jack's nostrils.

In the vast dimly lit underworld, flanked on either side by fenced cages, all sorts of people are held trapped to wooden planks and used as test subjects by white-robed magicians.

Jack saw a man, and after a magician carved runes into his chest, the whole person swelled into a ball of flesh full of eyes and mouths, and the next moment it shriveled and shrunk and cracked into minced flesh.

He also saw a little girl, who had been injected with an unknown potion by another magician, screaming and trembling madly, showing a strong desire to attack, and eventually, the magician had her head decapitated with a wind blade.

The shadows, screams, and gore of the underworld reminded Jack of Hell, and he felt severe nausea, but resisted the urge to vomit.

"How's it going, do you like it, my followers, you're not the kind of Britney who has too much sense of justice!" Luna whispered into Jack's ear.

"Of course not!" Suppressing anger, pity, and disgust, Jack even smiled heartily, "I think eternal life is not about good or evil. ”

"You're really good at talking~ But don't worry, the test subjects here are all prisoners sentenced to death, oh? hehe, guess how many people that little girl killed before we caught her?"

Jack shook his head.

"35 people. It's hard to believe, right, hee-hee, come on, I'll take you to see our most successful experiments. ”

Luna and Leigh lead Jack through the long passage to the cage at the end of the passage, where a clown in a costume is imprisoned.

Seeing this scene, Luna, who wanted to introduce Jack proudly, was stunned, she narrowed her eyes and asked seriously.

"Mr. Clown, when did you get dressed?"
