After leaving the hummingbird antique shop, Christian Dior walked down the street to find that there were far fewer pedestrians on the road than when he came.

A large part of this is due to the fact that the Drift Fire Festival lasts for three days, today is the first day, and the wonderful all-night carnival is tomorrow night, so many people choose to go home at this time to recuperate, and on the other hand, he did stay in the antique store for a long time, and it was already very late when he came out.

There were fewer pedestrians on the roads, and horse-drawn carriages and other means of transport began to haunt again. It didn't take much effort for Dior to stop the carriage and go home.

Sitting in the car, he quietly thought about what he had seen from the information provided by Dion, and sorted out his thoughts, thinking about how to inform Lynch and Rosalind of these news tomorrow, and how to deal with the impending crisis.

It's funny to say, since he was reborn, at the beginning, because of the Knight's Tomb and the people of Remy Henton Company, he fought the first life-and-death battle in his life, and then the Mayan incident caused a series of chain reactions, which caused the Mannheim explosion that would not have happened, causing the situation between Remy Hamton and the Thorn Barrier to be reversed in an instant, and also caused a serious conflict between the Gray Scale Martial Arts Hall and Remy Henton, which he joined.

This step by step, there was no news from the black-robed organization, the original expected sworn enemy, but the Remy Henton Company became the mortal enemy he had to face now by chance. It's really a little strange to think about all this, and he can't help but feel that the future is really unpredictable, just a small change will make the future deflect in an unpredictable direction, and his idea that he can control everything by relying on the foreknowledge of the future is really naïve, because his own existence has already affected the direction of future development.

The driver's skill is very good, so that the speed of the car is kept in a stable state. From time to time, the pale yellow light of the roadside streetlamp shone through the car window, streaked across his face, and then disappeared after a moment, causing his face to switch between light and shadow, as uncertain as his thoughts.

Suddenly, a hint of vigilance suddenly appeared in his heart, and the carriage came to a sudden halt, and the neighing of the horses and the reassuring shouts of the coachman were heard outside.

Dior looked out the window, and here he knew, a small deserted street close to his home.

"What's the matter?" he asked in a deep voice.

"There's someone up ahead!" replied the coachman.

Dior pushed the car door directly, got out of the carriage, looked ahead, and saw that under the light of the street lamp, two people were standing a few meters away, just in the direction of the carriage.

The two men, one tall and one short, both wore gray short-sleeved T-shirts and grass-green trousers, and they looked very strong.

"It's fast. ”

Dior saw at a glance the lion badge on the chest of these two people, representing the company of Remy Hamton, and their identity and purpose were already self-evident.

As soon as I received the information that the enemy was about to make a move, I immediately encountered the enemy who came to the door on his own initiative, and this situation was indeed very sudden. It's just that now he didn't feel the slightest nervousness, but the corners of his mouth curved slightly, and half of his face in the shadows showed a somewhat hideous smile.

"It's okay, you go first, you're looking for me. ”

Dio took out a random stack of money from his pocket and put it in the driver's hand, motioning for him to go first. The coachman was also a man of many worldliness, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he immediately drove the carriage around and ran, and soon disappeared on the other side of the street.

"Dio Garros. The two people from the Remy Huntton Company had been watching quietly, and it was not until after the carriage left that the shorter of the two took the lead in speaking, and his voice was dry, as if he hadn't drunk water for a long time, "Come with us." The tone didn't fluctuate, as if it should have been.

"Oh?" Dior looked at the two with interest, feeling a little familiar, "What's the matter?"

"Just follow us. The tall urn said angrily, seemingly a little impatient.

The shorter continued: "If you are smart, take the initiative, otherwise we will not guarantee that you will not be hurt." Don't think that practicing martial arts for less than half a year is amazing, it's okay to compare with ordinary people, and you are far from a real expert. ”

Hearing the short man say this, Dio knew that they must have investigated him, but it seemed that he only knew that he had entered the Grey Scale Martial Arts Pavilion.

"I even know that. Dio nodded appreciatively, and then asked abruptly, "By the way, what are the numbers of the two of you?"

"What's the nonsense?!Are you leaving?!" The tall man obviously didn't want to ink with Dior anymore, so he wanted to come up and grab Dior.

However, the short personality was relatively cautious, first stopping his companion, and then asking Dio in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing, I just think you're familiar, and you're very similar to the two people I've seen before, what's your name......? Oh yes, it should be the 22nd and the 73rd. ”

"Have you seen my brother?"

"What's wrong with my brother?"

The two men on the other side shouted almost at the same time.

"It really has to do with it. Dio was stunned, and then smiled mysteriously, "Do you want to know? As he spoke, he took a few quick steps back, shrunk into the shadows of the wall beside him, and then leaped lightly, and with one hand on the wall, the man flipped to the other side of the wall.

Almost at the same time, a string of figures suddenly appeared in the direction where Dio came, at least five or six, all of them were tall and strong adult men, and some of them even directly held daggers and machetes and other murder weapons, obviously the two people in front stopped Dior, and those people in the back were responsible for blocking Dior's retreat. However, before they appeared, Dior had already noticed it in advance, and cleverly jumped out of the encirclement.

"Chase!" ran a few short steps to the wall, jumped up, and was also very agile to cross the wall more than one person high, chasing the figure of Dio in front of him.

The rest of the men nimbly climbed over the wall to keep up, while the others ran around the wall at the cues of their companions to intercept Dior from other directions.

......

Living room.

Lilia flipped through her favorite book of Von Stillan's poems, but her mind couldn't settle down as much as before, and the words on the slightly yellowed paper that could have brought her spiritual enjoyment could only make her anxious at the moment.

After continuing in this state for a long time, Lilia Huo Ran, who couldn't bear it, threw the book aside and grabbed the high-imitation Kranitonia Knight Sword that she had just bought at the desk. A slightly cool sensation spread from the hilt of the sword to the palm of her hand, and all her uneasiness and anxiety disappeared in an instant.

"It's okay, they're gone, not coming for us, probably not from there. The soul named Hiralda, who was perched in the necklace, said suddenly.

Lilia stood up, walked to the window, lifted up a little curtain, and looked out through the gap, only to see some dark shadows moving faintly at the extreme of the line of sight, and soon disappeared.

"When will the helper you said will come?!" Lilia asked in a deep voice as she breathed a sigh of relief.

"I didn't say it, it was the boy named Thorn. Hillarda corrects Lilia's mistake.

"All the same, aren't you all in this group?" Lilia asked, clearly unhappy with her current situation, "one of you said that I would not be in danger if I signed the oath, the other said that the organization I belong to is powerful enough to keep my family safe, and that there are many allies who will help each other. And now, what have you said come true?"

Hillada paused and said slowly: "In fact, when you gain the power of existence and become no longer ordinary, then the things you encounter must no longer be ordinary. Everyone has a position that suits their own situation, and when you make a choice, then your future will inevitably have nothing to do with a peaceful life, just sooner or later. ”

Lilia was silent.

After a long time, she sat down on the bed, wrapped her hands around her bent knees and the knight's sword, and shrunk her whole body at the head of the bed.

"If I hadn't chosen this, or if my talent hadn't woken you up, maybe none of these things would have happened, and everyone would have been able to live in peace again......"

Hirada was silent.
