Chapter 099: The Demon of the Sea, the Demon God of Laziness
On the vast blue Mediterranean, cruise a snow-white cruise ship, the stern of which breaks the waves on the calm and windless sea.
The blue sky was impossibly quiet with a few wisps of drifting clouds, except for a gulls and herons spreading their wings and casting a flying shadow on the red-haired man's sunglasses.
"Oops."
The red-haired man rested on the sun lounger on the deck of the cruise ship with his strong arms on his pillow, and said lazily: "The treatment of your Star Cup runner-up is not bad." ”
"You've overdone it, Mr. Brahshati." The manager in the suit stood aside and said respectfully: "It is our responsibility to ensure that you have a comfortable experience on this voyage. ”
Three days ago, the Starry Sky Cup came to an end, and the heavy sword man and the 'Body Cultivation Grandmaster' Brahma Chatian started a peak duel.
The spectacular scene of the epee man splitting the sea with a sword has gone down in history and has become a famous scene of the Starry Sky Cup.
Brahma Cha Tian was reduced to a background board, won the second place, and the runner-up was rewarded with "Around the World in 80 Days".
It's a luxury trip at its finest.
Private cruises will take Brahma Drasa around the world in 80 days. During the period, you can enjoy all the entertainment activities of food feast, jewelry beauty, and drunken gold fans......
Compared to the Tier 5 card of the champion, the reward of the "Vehicle Card" that can be used to increase combat effectiveness is more material.
"Hmph, if I'm not mistaken, there is a 'quota' limit for this trip."
Brahma Chatian wore large sunglasses, picked up the cocktail glass on the small table next to the sun lounger, pillow with one arm, took a sip, and said:
"Once you've spent all of your quota in advance, you're going to throw me like a fur seal, right?"
"How so?" The manager's smile stiffened.
Brahma lowered his sunglasses, looked at the manager in a cold sweat, and showed a weird smile: "Forgive me for not daring-"
Rather, the card master and security personnel on the entire cruise ship add up, and I don't need to use a second hand.
The sea breeze was warm and warm, and the Spiritual Cultivation Grandmaster yawned lazily and said, "Where have you sailed now?" ”
When they looked at each other, the source power emanating from the man, or the so-called "qi" of the martial artists, made the manager's back soaked. He smiled bitterly:
"Again, it won't be long before we reach the Strait of Gibraltar...... In July, we'll be in the Golden State of the Free Commonwealth...... There, is a world-famous landscape location. ”
"Huh? Golden State ......" Brahma Chatian frowned slightly and said, "I remember that there was once a giant S-class monster there, right?" ”
The manager said, "You should, you're talking about the monster of the sea "Theseus". It has a special ability to unleash a tsunami, having single-handedly devastated several of the Golden State's surrounding cities decades ago. Later, a member of the Union died with it, and the disaster subsided. ”
As if stuck in a memory, the manager's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "A friend of mine died in that tsunami... Legend has it that Theseus was a huge sea serpent with several heads, and it created waves that could easily overturn a battleship...... Thankfully, it's confirmed dead, otherwise ......"
Brahma Celestial Monster laughed twice: "Extinction? You said that it is a monster of the sea, and the tide can rise again and make a comeback, isn't it quite reasonable? ”
The manager's face changed, and he smiled stiffly: "Please, don't joke......"
The red-haired man shrugged.
When encountering the monsters of Shanghai, even if it is Uncle Ben, there is only one way to die.
But if it's the one, the black-armored tin man with a giant sword.
With his huge lightsaber that pierced the sky, plus the terrifying sword that slashed at the meteorite......
The red-haired man restrained his arrogant look and looked deep.
"I feel that he is not far from being a national warrior." Brahma muttered.
……
Friday, June 24.
As night falls, Queen Street lights up in a rainbow of neon colours.
The Farm Cafe has closed down, and the Ukizakura Ramen stall with lanterns hanging next to the store is booming.
Boom.
The chestnut-haired beauty with a bow tied on a high ponytail put down the huge bowl and let out a sigh:
"Sure enough, the ramen has to be wiped out along with the soup......
No one responded, and Sigrid looked up and saw Chu Yun and Lin Xiao looking at her with strange eyes.
"What's wrong?" The little secretary said.
"That's an amazing amount of food." Lin Xiao looked down at the empty bowl and couldn't help but say.
"That's not much." Chu Yun was not surprised.
"I'm just ......" Sigrid blushed slightly, "I'm often hungry easily, so eat a little more......"
"Oh! (σ′?') σ" Dafu lay on Lin Xiao's knee and agreed.
I'm also often hungry, so I've stocked up on a lot of fat~
"Speaking of which." Chu Yun lit his cigarette and said in a low voice: "Recently, the Golden State has not been very peaceful, and there have been many spiritual disturbances, like a premonition of something, and there has even been a large-scale migration of wild spiritual creatures. ”
Sigrid wiped her mouth elegantly with a tissue, and her delicate lips were not covered with lipstick, but they were spicy and red.
She blinked her red pupils and said softly, "Is it related to the Demon God?" ”
Chu Yun shook his head: "It's not clear for the time being, the branch of the Golden State is investigating...... If the situation is urgent, there is also the possibility of transferring manpower from Xingtu City. ”
"Honeysuckle is about to start school in the near future, and I can't take a break for the time being." Lin Xiao said.
"Generally speaking, the investigation team will give higher subsidies and incentives when they transfer personnel to other branches."
Chu Yun nodded and said, "However, since you have successfully joined the honeysuckle, you should take the honeysuckle operation as the first task." ”
Higher subsidy incentives......
Lin Xiao said: "Actually, after completing the necessary class hours, I can find a teaching assistant to substitute for the teacher!" ”
It doesn't matter what the reward is.
The main thing is to save the citizens of the Golden State from the dire situation!
Chu Yun choked for a moment, and coughed lightly: "The situation really has to change, I believe that the team leader will transfer you, a senior operator...... Okay, let's go, I'll send you back. ”
The little secretary lives at the headquarters of the investigation team, while Lin Xiao's family lives in Xiacheng District, and it takes about two hours to drive back and forth.
"No need." Lin Xiao said, "I recently bought a 'vehicle card', and it's quite convenient to travel. ”
"Is it a shuttle or a motorcycle?" The little secretary spoke curiously, and his red eyes lit up: "Or, it's the legend of your Middle-earthers, the flying sword!" ”
In the Middle Ages of Central, there was a group of immortals who slay demons and eliminate demons, living among the high mountains and dangerous peaks.
For them, the so-called vehicle card naturally refers to flying swords, paper kites and other means of transportation.
"It's not as advanced as a flying sword." Lin Xiao said, "It's just a very ordinary motorcycle." ”
"Ohuh..."Daifuku shook his little head as he recalled the heavy locomotive.
Ordinary means that it can easily crush that terrifying giant tree spirit!
Chu Yun frowned slightly, looked at Lin Xiao, seemed to have checked, and said:
"I remember...... The championship reward of the Star Cup is also a motorcycle. ”
Lin Xiao sat down and said, "I am the champion of the Star Cup." ”
Sigrid covered her mouth: "Poof......"
Lin Xiao turned his head and said, "What are you laughing at?" ”
The little secretary waved his hand, pursed the corners of his mouth and said, "I just... I remembered something glad to be happy about. ”
Lin Xiao said: "You don't want to rub Dafu's belly again next time!" ”
Sigrid: "I'm sorry! Please make sure to let me leopard leopard big fortune again! (つД`)???”
The pigtailed man with a serious face looked at the gag duo, smoking a cigarette and falling into deep thought.
Before, I didn't believe that Lin Xiao was a heavy sword without a blade.
But the relationship between the two is getting closer.
Chu Yun's eyes flashed slightly.
I believe that it will not be long before the water will come to light......
*
The news from the Golden State, Lin Xiao decided to wait for the notice from his superiors.
There is still a week left before school, so I can take this opportunity to collect materials for the restoration of the "seven-stringed harp".
At present, the commission of 'Cleansing Tree Spirits' has brought two materials: "laurel" and "myrtle".
As for the remaining material, "Water Lily Juice", Lin Xiao hung up a commission on the Card Master Association, saying that if there is news related to it, he can contact him.
In the early morning, the sun shines through the window, shining on a "snow-white glutinous rice dumpling".
Daifuku lay on the head of the bed and played with the broken harp, and the music came out intermittently.
"Ou woo ~ ヾ (●′?'●)" Daifuku narrowed his eyes.
It's kind of fun!
Lin Xiao looked at Daifuku, thinking about where to start with Rua later.
Airplanes.
The wristband-style light curtain vibrates slightly, and the official news from the [Card Masters Association] comes from.
Someone took the commission.
However, it can only provide information, not physical goods.
A message flashes on the light curtain.
[Jolena: It turned out to be a commission you issued...]
Lin Xiao never thought that it was an old acquaintance who took the commission, and replied: "It turned out to be the commission you received." ”
Jolene sighed lightly: "Since I am a colleague of the investigation team, there will be no charge for the intelligence this time." ”
Huh... I thought I had received a good commission and could easily get wool, but it turned out to be my own people...
And such a good thing as a white prostitute?
Lin Xiao said: "What kind of information, let's hear it." ”
[Jolena: The "Water Lily Juice" you need comes from a dream water lily, which is nourished by the monster 'Nightmare' with the power of dreams. 】
"Nightmares are monsters that live in dark forests and caves during the day, and sneak into people's dreams at night. In the vicinity of their habitat, this water lily is born. Jolene said.
"So, where can I find the Nightmare?" Lin Xiao asked.
Jolene said, "This, you need to find it yourself." ”
Lin Xiao: "Your intelligence...... It's not really useful at all. ”
Jolena didn't refute either, and said calmly: "There are a few more pieces of information, which I have attached." ”
"It is said that the Nightmares around the Mediterranean worship the sleeping god 'Hypnos' among the gods of Kaos, and the Nightmare of the Federation obey the demon god 'Belfinger' who suffers from slackness."
The corners of Lin Xiao's mouth twitched: "The belief of monsters, and there are local differences?" ”
Jolena nodded lightly and said, "Humans all believe in different creation dragons, and monsters naturally follow different gods...... In short, the "water lily juice" you need may be related to the demon god, so you should pay more attention. ”
Lin Xiao said in his heart.
Now that I've provoked the Demon God of Arrogance and the God of Light......
Then I am not afraid of being contaminated with more cause and effect.
Don't be overwhelmed by debts!
As for the lazy demon god 'Belfinger', Lin Xiao was a little impressed.
Because compared to Lucifer, Belfinger is often portrayed by the Church as a long-legged and beautiful lazy royal sister (female).
Possible...... In this way, it is more convenient to fool believers and gain more power of faith......
"I heard you're coming to Honeysuckle to investigate the news of the 'Demon God Altar'." Jolena changed the subject and said, "Is it reporting as a freshman?" ”
Lin Xiao was slightly stunned, realizing that Brother Chu Yun hadn't told this 'temporary worker' the news that he had joined Honeysuckle.
"No, I'm an associate professor at Honeysuckle University." Lin Xiao said.
Jolena said indifferently: "I'll pick you up on the day of school, some of the procedures are very cumbersome, and someone can save a lot of time." ”
In these days, no one believes the truth at all, does it......
Lin Xiao said helplessly: "Okay, see you at the beginning of school." ”
Jolene bowed her head lightly: "See you here." ”
Close the light curtain.
Lin Xiao summed up carefully and fell into a deep groan.
To obtain "Water Lily Sap", you must first find the location of the Nightmare......
I was about to ask for the help of the little secretary, and the contact rang, and it was a master of Bopu from the field of ancient languages.
"Lin Xiao!"
The little old man on the video call was in good spirits and said with a smile: "I took the liberty of calling here, I have an important matter and I want to discuss it with you." ”
"Tell me." Lin Xiao said.
"It's like this... I was invited to participate in an archaeological excavation of a site that is said to be of great scholarly value as it is related to the god Kaos. ”
Master Bopu said: "I want to invite you to join the archaeological work. First, this can be used as an academic achievement for your professional title to be regularized; Second, practical work can enhance a scholar's vision and even the source of power; And the third point, as a travel card master, you have a certain combat ability, and I will apply to give you the material reward you deserve. ”
Originally, with Lin Xiao's qualifications, he could not join the archaeological team that paid attention to his background.
But Master Bopu knows that Lin Xiao's ability is outstanding, and he has a little heart to promote the rare talents of the younger generations. Under the protection, he won this place for Lin Xiao.
I have to say that Lin Xiao was a little tempted.
After all, there is still a week before the start of school, and participating in archaeological work is purely a trip to relax, and you can also get materials by the way.
In your hand, there is also a blue material card "Guardian Wings", which can be used to craft cards with a tendency to "fly".
After the archaeological work.
Try crafting the second spirit card after "Little Seal".
As we all know, mechas, swords, and motorcycles are men's romance.
And sometimes, cute little animals can also capture the hearts of macho men......
"A flying pet with a 'guarding' effect."
Lin Xiao looked up at the sky: "It's better to be cute, so that rua feels more good!" ”
After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Xiao agreed to Master Bopu's invitation and would participate in the archaeological work as an associate professor of honeysuckle.
"That ruin, specifically related to the god Kaos?" Lin Xiao asked.
Master Bopp replied, "It is the sleeping god of the gods of Kaos, 'Hypnos'. ”
Lin Xiao: "......"
Why do I always feel that this archaeological work has to happen again?
