Chapter 346: The Heart of the Jewel
Blue skies.
In the dark spire of the council, on a suspended terrace.
Dozens of powerful professionals stood in order.
--The rescue team has been assembled.
They're on a review by the council, and they're about to set out to rescue the Entropy Family.
The bigwigs sat on the higher floors, holding a carefully screened list of people, and as they compared, they looked out onto the terrace for the professionals who represented their families.
It's still early.
But the necessary rituals will also take a lot of time, so--
"Speaker, please."
"Well, okay, I'll say a few words.
"Young Candidate Members--"
"Remember, you are the new blood of the Council, the pillars of your family, and the stars of tomorrow who have been carefully selected by the Council to stand here."
"This time, on behalf of the Council, you will travel to the world of the Entropy End Family to rescue .....',
The Speaker gushed on.
On the terrace, the reserve members listened attentively with respectful expressions.
However, they did not listen to the speaker's tirade.
Another old voice rang in the ears of one of the reserve councillors:
"Remember, Theon has a figurine forging method in his hands, and although he reached an agreement with the council, the council was still preparing the relevant trading treasures before, so he didn't hand over the forging method either."
"Master, I remember, my task is to find that forging method."
The reserve member responded.
The old voice continued:
"Yes, that's it, but if you can't find it, you'll have to do something else--"
"Most of the Entropy family's treasures are in the Council Bank, but there are also - some of them are in the collection room of their castle, go grab it, the more you can, the better."
"Yes, Master!',
Almost every member of the rescue team listened carefully to the instructions of the head of the family.
They were ready for a long time, eager to try, and when the time came, they were about to enter the territory of the Entropy End family and plunder.
After today, the Entropy Family will cease to exist.
And because of the timely rescue, these people will "rescue" a batch of precious treasures for the council and receive the corresponding council rewards.
Everyone will step on the corpse of the Entropy End family and welcome a brighter and better future.
Time passes slowly.
The Speaker is still on the high platform. Speaking high-sounding rhetoric.
Everything is about to happen.
Suddenly.
A man in black walked briskly up to the high platform and whispered something in the speaker's ear.
The Speaker's originally dim eyes suddenly shone brightly.
Meanwhile.
The heads of the family seemed to have been summoned to something, and their faces made a look of attentive listening.
Dead.
The reserve members below sensed that something was wrong.
Has things changed?
That's what they were thinking, and that's how it happened.
Initially.
A not-so-loud roar was heard from the edge of the City of Parliament.
The heads of the higher-ups continued to be deadly silent.
However, the meaning of this dead silence is completely different from what it was just now.
Their faces showed confusion, panic, fear, and even--
Weak.
In the dead silence, time passed silently, but no one moved.
It's like they don't know what to do.
One of the reserve councillors was only puzzled and couldn't help but glance out into the distance towards the edge of the city.
"That's where the council bank ......',
He muttered to himself.
In the silence, his voice sounded suddenly
As for everyone, they turned their heads to look at him.
--All the big guys are silent, what do you say?
The reserve councilor knew that he had lost his words, and hurriedly lowered his head, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
He didn't know that his unintentional words woke everyone up.
The fear in the hearts of the crowd was defeated in an instant.
The Speaker roared:
"Banks! We must not lose the bank!"
"Everybody's ready to fight!"
The bigwigs were in a roar and began to mobilize manpower.
Piercing sirens rose into the sky and resounded throughout the council city.
Parliamentary Bank.
A family treasure trove deep underground.
Wu Xiaode stepped on a piece of golden sand, supported his forehead with his hand, and muttered with a headache:
"Is the Entropy Family always so unpicked?"
The entire underground treasure vault resembles the main hall of a huge palace, with many staircases leading to various pavilions.
However, the golden sand covered the ground, three or four meters deep, and all kinds of treasures were placed on it.
-- They don't look neat at all.
To put it mildly, the treasures here are simply littered.
Elian's father won Theon's admiration for this?
"Don't doubt it, it's the right way to store it."
,
Joan's voice rang out.
The Book of the Dead opened, levitating in front of Wu Xiaode, revealing the page of the Shadow Follower.
Joan was taken in by Odvia's ghostly technique, and was looking at the situation outside from the card.
Wu Xiaode suddenly remembered something, and said, "Mastermother, you helped a lot in the battle, let's divide the wealth here equally."
There was silence.
"No, Ilian."
,
Joan said, suddenly falling from the card and standing beside him.
"What do you mean?" Wu Xiaode asked.
Joan took a soft breath, and a pair of seductive eyes fell on his face.
--- must catch Arian to the death!
He has three powers in his body, and he has retinues like ghosts and bone dragons by his side, and he is out of the situation of certain death.
Whether it was the previous battle or the decision in the passage, it was shown that he was no longer the Elian of the past.
Treasure is dead and will be consumed.
Only by clinging to this man will you regain your power and move towards a more brilliant life!
At this moment, Joan made up her mind directly.
She gently took his hand and whispered in his ear:
"My clan has betrayed me—I can't go back to the Hellflame Clan."
"And you're the last bloodline of the entire Entropy Family."
"As the saying goes, it's hard to be alone, if you want, from now on, let's fight together."
After hearing this, Wu Xiaode couldn't help laughing.
The previous battle was fought thanks to the help of this mistress.
In the future, if you continue to stay in the council, you really need one of these helpers.
After all, she knows everything about the council, and she knows everything well--
A woman who can be a housemother.....
Where can the means be worse?
Like she said.
It's too hard for an Arian to revive the family.
She needs someone who originally belonged to the council, and she must know everything about the council.
One more powerful character like this to help deal with the problem, and the other families will have more fear.
When Wu Xiaode fell into thought, Joan thought he was hesitating.
"Of course."
She leaned on his shoulder, and there was some inexplicable emotion in her voice, "If you want, I'm yours too."
Wu Xiaode frowned
Jumped, lowered his head, and met her watery eyes.
This woman is adept at using everything as a weapon to achieve her own ends.
She's already the head mother of the Entropy End family.
As a result, she still thinks about betraying Theon all the time, wanting more.
--She is a person who is true to her desires.
Now that the situation is compelling, of course she says so, and she is willing to do so, but in case someone else offers a higher price after getting out of here--
How will she choose?
So......
needs a price code so that she won't betray the Entropy End family for the time being.
I need her full support until she is recognized by the council, and she has a new place in the council, and she can know all the plans for the world of "heaven, earth and man".
Only then will he be able to stop paying attention to her and her desires.
Wu Xiaode suddenly raised his head and looked around.
"Joan." He spoke.
"What?" Joan tensed.
--He's looking around, is he trying to do something here?
I only heard Wu Xiaode speak:
「...... What is in this treasure house except gold?"
Joan suddenly said:
"Alian, it's time to tell you about this, it's all valuable, innumerable
Rare materials and treasures, as well as mining contracts and land ownership documents in various worlds, are all the most valuable!"
Wu Xiaode looked around and withdrew his gaze.
An answer came to him.
"Joan, do you have any larger space to store your belongings?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"It's all jewelry, there are few suitable for you, let me find ......',
Joan rummaged through it, and then found a crystal clear gem.
This gem is actually very precious.
But at this moment, in order to tie Arian to himself, he had to contribute.
"Extra-large storage gems, you can take everything here - you can use them, you need these treasures to revive the family."
After Joan finished speaking, he handed the gem to Wu Xiaode.
Wu Xiaode took the gem and put it towards the void, only to see a bone dragon holding the gem in its mouth, and swam around the entire treasure room like lightning.
All the treasures were swept away by it, and they fell back in front of Wu Xiaode, opening his mouth and spitting out the gems.
Wu Xiaode took the space gem.
He handed the gem to Joan.
Joan was stunned, and a look of disbelief appeared on her face:
「...... Give me? This is all the wealth of the Entropy End family, why give it to me?"
"You are the head mother of the family, and you will be the same in the future," Wu Xiaode said unhurriedly, "The family wealth is in your hands, and all the affairs of the family will be decided by you in the future.
"I'm in charge of the fight."
Joan held the cold gem in her hand, her expression a little stunned.
Sion had been keeping a close eye on the contents of the collection room, and when he got closer, he had to count all the collections.
The family's wealth was also in the hands of Elion's father, and he had no chance to care about it.
What you want to do and what you want to buy, you often need to take money from your own small coffers.
This master is really aggrieved.
However--
Now Arian is in charge of all his wealth directly!
Qiong's heart flashed, but her face showed a look of emotion, and she shook her head and said, "It's too much, you can also take a little money yourself, and she handed the gem to Wu Xiaode.
Wu Xiaode didn't answer, just said casually:
"I have a lot of money, you can collect these yourself, if you want to use them, you can spend them as you like, you don't need to tell me, unless it is related to the family."
Joan looked at his indifferent expression, and her heart gradually settled.
He said he had a lot of money.
But how can his wealth be compared to that of a family?
If it's fake, it proves that he values himself.
If it's true, then it's another proof of his quality.
Joan couldn't help but reach out and stroke her hair to hide the thousands of thoughts in her heart:
「...... These are too messy, and they still need to be sorted out, at least have a list, and they can be used in the future.
At this time, there was a roar in the distance outside.
"Sort it out here, I'll go out and have a look—leave you a fog here to cover your body, and I'll be back in a moment."
After Wu Xiaode finished speaking, he patted her on the shoulder, turned around and walked out of the treasure room.
In the treasure room of the Entropy End family, Joan is left alone.
She held the space gem in her hand, her expression was stunned, and countless thoughts flashed in her heart for a while.
Now there is a big mess in parliament.
Arian also left for the time being.
Do you want to run away alone at this time?
This wealth is enough for thousands of years to come.
Let's go.
Stay away from this land of right and wrong!
She clenched the gem in her hand, her breathing becoming rapid.
Suddenly.
A jeweled ring on his finger lit up.
--Correspondence from the family.
Joan sneered and pressed on the gem.
"Joan, it's me."
,
A deep male voice rang out.
"Father, I heard it, why do you still have the face to look for me?" Joan said softly.
"Have you gotten the figurine forging method?" The male voice asked.
Joan's eyes drooped and she said, "Got it." ,
"Very good, come back to the family immediately, this time you are the biggest hero!" Male voice.
"Father.... When the Entropy House was destroyed, I appealed to the Council for help, but the Council never came
Joan continued.
The male voice paused and sounded again:
"You may not know, the Council was originally going to go to the rescue, but now the City of the Council has also been attacked, so the people I sent didn't make it, but luckily you survived! It's a blessing!"
Good fake.
It's so fake.
Joan kept her head down and didn't speak for a moment.
--There was no rescue, not until the end of the world.
It was a long time to make Theon through a hidden passage.
-- Still no rescue.
However, the Entropy Family's wealth was almost frozen.
So father, you have made an agreement with the other families to divide up the Entropy End family.
As a daughter, I have been in the Entropy family for more than 800 years, and I was tortured by Theon, and I was betrayed by you at the last moment.
--Just to divide the wealth of the Entropy family.
Joan looked at the Space Gem in her hand.
Right now.
He has the wealth of the entire Entropy family, as well as the figurine forging method.
Why go back?
Back to a man who betrayed himself?
"Come back, Joan." ,
As if sensing her emotional changes, the male voice became much gentler:
"As soon as you return, I'll put you in charge of a portion of the family's power, and I'll be in charge of all the ladies - you're my proudest daughter!"
Joan froze.
Before you know it, a tear falls on the gem.
Manage the female volume....
Eight hundred years of suffering, in exchange for managing women for the family?
She didn't realize what Elian had just said again.
"You are the head of the family
Mother, in the future, too, you will be in charge of the family wealth, and all the affairs of the family will be decided by you in the future.
Power.
Wealth.
Trust.
And--
Future.
Yes, I was wrong before.
If he escaped with such a huge wealth alone, let alone his own family, none of the other families would let him go.
No matter how big and infinite the worlds are, they will find themselves.
They will pounce on them like hyenas and eat everything they have.
There's really nothing more to say.
The only way to live is to fight.
--There is never a moment of exit.
Joan gently wiped the corners of her eyes and face. A lazy smile appeared on him, and he said softly:
"Father, you may not know one thing."
"What?,"
"The Entropy End family is still there, and I'm still its mother, and ......',
"Now I'm in power."
