In the rain, Zero opened the car door and stuffed the unconscious Lu Mingfei into the back seat.

This is an unsightly van, still of the Wuling brand, parked in the alley is very inconspicuous.

Ian followed Zero into the car, and as if he were fishing, he used the fish angel figure as bait and fished Eri into the car.

After Eri sat in the car, she looked back from time to time and patted the driver's seat, as if urging the driver to run quickly.

There was no need to rush, and the driver knew that this place would not be able to stay for a long time, so when everyone got into the car, he immediately stepped on the accelerator.

The tires splashed on the waterlogged road, and Ian noticed that the scenery outside the car had changed, and there was a hazy cloud of smoke enveloping the car, and the engine and rain seemed to be absorbed by the smoke, and the surroundings became extremely silent.

Spirit, a spirit that can achieve an invisible effect when released, apparently the driver is also a half-blood, and Ian sees the driver's face through the mirror of the car in front.

She took off her white baseball cap and wore scarlet eyeshadow on the corners of her eyes.

"How did you kidnap her back?" Jiude Mai pursed her lips and looked at the witch behind her: "I said Sanwu, this is not a good thing, if you don't make it, we will die here." ”

"She's going to keep up." Zero said lightly.

"It's not in our plans." Mai turned the steering wheel and made a sharp turn.

She rubbed against someone else's car and drove into the highway, this Wuling van seemed to have been modified, full of horsepower, in her hands it was like a supercar.

"Miss Driver, where are we going?" Ian asked.

"The destination is Izu Atami, and my name is Mai Satoku, you can call me Mai." Mai replied respectfully, "I have to trouble you to take care of the witch next to you, don't let her lose her temper." ”

"I don't think she's a bad boy, Miss Mai." Ian said.

He controls the fish angel figure to swing the fishtail next to Eri, and it is this level of interaction that makes Eri very excited.

The shrine maiden is a simple child, and Ian has a lot of experience with children, and every time he goes to a new place, he has to prepare cartoons for a 2,000-year-old child to play with, so he knows how to please children.

"It doesn't matter if it's a good child or a bad child, as long as it's a child, you don't know how important it is." Wine De Mai said curtly.

"You know her well?" Ian asked.

"I don't know anything, I just know something about her." Mai said, "Her full name is Eri Uesugi and she is the head of the Uesugi family in the Snake Eight Family. ”

"With her mind, it is impossible to be the head of the family, but power is authority, and she is the emperor in the mouth of the blood of the White King."

"In the ancient books of the Eight Families of Snakes, the birth of the emperor is called 'incarnation', which is comparable to Prometheus who stole fire, Jesus Christ who atoned for the sins of mankind with his own blood, and the emperor is the son of heaven and the emperor of fate, and the titles include 'Emperor Dong', 'Emperor Yao', 'Emperor Zhen', and 'Lord Taiwei'...... It combines all the virtues of human beings and has the great power to fight against God. ”

"She was worshipped by the family because of her royal blood, but her bloodline was so strong that it was unstable, so she was strictly guarded inside that building."

"No wonder she's so innocent." Ian understood: "If that is the case, she has almost no contact with the outside world. ”

"Under normal circumstances, she is locked in a private room alone, she is the secret weapon of the Eight Snake Qi family, and she is the moon reading life, and every time she goes out, she is guarded by the highest level of security to prevent her from causing accidents." Wine De Mai said.

"I thought she was a pure-blooded dragon like Norton." Ian said.

"If she's a pure-blooded dragon, maybe a little better." Wine De Mai said.

"Why do you say that?"

"Then she doesn't have to worry about her Deadpool, she could be Deadpool at any time if she doesn't inject the serum regularly, so I said you shouldn't take her out, it's not necessarily a good thing for her."

"It's better than staying in that dangerous place." Ian shook his head.

"Understood, respect your decision." Mai stepped on the accelerator to accelerate.

"Mai-san, there's no need to use honorifics on me, I think we're communicating on an equal footing now." Ian said.

"You are a guest of the boss." Mai said: "We can't lose our hospitality, and we hope you will forgive us." ”

"So who the hell is your boss?"

"You'll have to ask him about that, we're just doing things for him."

"Well, then look forward to meeting him."

Izu, Atami, Kuroishi Mansion.

Mai Satoku drove all the way to the coastal city of Atami, a small place where one car was enough to travel the whole country.

In the car, Lu Mingfei was still in a coma, and he never woke up after being coaxed to sleep by Zero.

When Eri was halfway there, she took out her small notebook and wrote on it.

She said I'm going to take a shower, and you guys prepare hot water for me.

Her tone seemed to be giving orders, probably because she was used to using this commanding tone, in the Snake Qi Eight family, she was the emperor and the head of the Uesugi family, and although she was under house arrest, the maids who served her never dared to disobey her orders.

However, where was the hot water for bathing in the car, Ian saw that she didn't understand the difference between men and women, and after tearing off the post-it notes and sticking them on his shoulders, he began to untie his clothes, and it became more and more difficult to imagine what kind of environment she lived in in the past, and she didn't even understand a lot of common sense.

In the end, it was the "Big Fish Monster" who came forward to convince her, and Ian made the "Big Fish Monster" speak like a ventriloquist doll and coaxed Eri Yi.

The car stopped in front of a luxurious mansion, and an old butler was waiting with a group of maids.

"The spa and breakfast are ready." The old butler bowed his head and said.

So Eri finally had a chance to take a bath, Ian entrusted the child to Zero, and Zero took Eri to the hot spring to wash up.

At the kind invitation of Mai Jiude, he also went to the hot spring to take a bath and change into clean clothes.

The other party's hospitality is excellent, and the hot spring where he bathes is a place with a wide view, although it is indoors, you can see Sagami Bay opposite through the Shan Gate, and the white waves are cut by the black reef.

The mansion was built on a cliff, and the housekeeper said that the view from the Blackstone Mansion was best when the cherry blossoms were in bloom.

But Ian didn't come here to enjoy the cherry blossoms, he became more and more curious about the owner of Zero-sum Sake De Mai, who the hell was that?

Although there were indeed many suspicious things about him, it was unlikely that those suspicions alone would have investigated him so clearly, as if the man knew him well.

The boss behind the scenes didn't seem to be a stranger, but a friend of his, who had never been masked.

He washed up a little and left the hot springs.

The old housekeeper at the hot spring mouth left, and instead of the old housekeeper, he became a beautiful woman.

"I'm Su Enxi." The woman introduced herself: "Please go this way, the boss is already waiting for you." ”

Ian nodded, followed behind Su Enxi, and said in his heart that this boss doesn't seem to be a serious person, three subordinates, a three-no little Lori, a drag racing hot girl, and now there is a female secretary who looks very capable.

Su Enxi led him to the main hall of the Blackstone Mansion, pushed the door open, and stood aside, meaning to let Ian go in alone.

Ian crossed the steps and entered the door, the candles on both sides suddenly lit, and a person dressed in white sat on the ground, Ian looked at the man's wrist and was stunned, the one he wore on his wrist was clearly the MAGI bracelet that Ian gave to Lu Mingfei.

He carefully discerned, and finally saw a shadow of Lu Mingfei in this person's eyebrows.

To be honest, the person in front of him and Lu Mingfei's temperament are 108,000 miles apart, if they pass by on the road, Ian will never think that they are the same person.

"You may be seated." The young man in white stretched out his hand, he was now not short but long-haired, his hair was coiled up in a bun, and he had the majesty of a superior in his gestures.

"What is the relationship between you and Lu Mingfei?" Ian asked as he sat down.

"Lu Mingfei is my brother, I am his younger brother, Lu Mingze." The young man in white said.

"You share the same body?"

"No, it's my brother's body, I'm just taking over while he's asleep."

"I know that this kid is not simple, his memory is wrong, in fact, he is not a human child at all?"

"There's nothing wrong with that, my brother is the Holy Son."

"What is the Son?"

"It is the child that heaven and earth have conceived to take over the authority."

"What about you? What is it? ”

"I am the younger brother of the Son."

"What do you want to say about me?"

"I want to tell you that you're making it hard for me." The boy rubbed his temples: "Your arrival has disrupted my script, my brother was supposed to end the history of dragons, but now he is still the same as before, playing games and watching paper people every day, you are by his side, he will never grow up, he will only become a chanting monk who will shout for Wukong to save his life when something happens." ”

"Why does he have to grow up?" Ian sat cross-legged: "He probably doesn't like that kind of life." ”

"It doesn't matter if you like it or not, this is his fate." The teenager said.

"I don't think there's any predestined fate." Ian shook his head.

He knows better than anyone what fate is, he has been fighting against fate to get to where he is today, if he also convinced himself that it was his fate, then he would have died in the war.

"That's why I said I'm embarrassed." The boy said: "You have disturbed the established fate, everything has been disrupted, even the 'crown prince' has run to Japan to wake up the white emperor. ”

"My brother is destined to go to the battlefield, but he is happy now, waiting for the big brother to shelter him, if he keeps being like this, then the twilight of the gods will come as promised, the history of mankind will be zero, and the world will be destroyed."

"You mean that his choice alone is related to the destruction of the world? Is this some kind of cold joke? Ian frowned.

"Unfortunately, it's not a joke." The boy said, "There is not much time left, the day of the Black King's recovery is approaching, and the day of the Black King's recovery is the end of the world." ”

"So you're going to force him into battle?" Ian asked.

"I originally thought so, but now I find that this path doesn't work, so I'm coming to you." The boy pondered for a moment and said, "I want to make a deal with you, I will give you all the things you are looking for, the mysteries of alchemy and the words and spirits of dragons are all open to you, in exchange you can no longer interfere in this world, you must stay away from my brother." ”

"Let's not talk about the rest, your remuneration is a bit fake, and it sounds very unreliable." Ian said.

"You can verify it before fulfilling the agreement, but let's say it first, it's just that the permission is open to you, and it is your own spirit that is consumed by using words and alchemy." The boy smiled: "Well, this should be a very good deal for you, you get the ultimate secret that countless people are pursuing, and what you have to pay is basically negligible." ”

Ian rubbed his chin: "If you really have the kind of ability you say, from a trading point of view, this is indeed a surefire deal." ”

"Isn't that what you've gone to great lengths to sneak into Kassel and play with the half-bloods to save the King of Bronze and Fire?" The boy then persuaded: "Now as long as you nod, our agreement is reached, you don't have to worry, just leave my brother here, my staff will take care of him, and when he wakes up, he will forget everything about you." ”

"So as long as I promise you, promise you to stay away from Lu Mingfei, you can let me easily understand the mysteries of the spirit of words and alchemy?" Ian looked a little moved.

"Of course!" The boy stood up and waved his long sleeves.

The surrounding scenery suddenly changed, the tide rolled, the lightning flashed and thundered, and the dragons soared in the sky.

Ian looked around, he was in a palace of gold, on the top of an iceberg, and when he looked down, the world seemed to be in his hands.

Something was different around him, and the rules of the world became extremely clear in his eyes.

The corners of the young man's mouth hooked slightly: "This is the supreme power and power!" ”

Ian felt the secret treasure trove that was open to him, the spirit of words, alchemy, these incomprehensible things, and suddenly it became clear.

"Now, as long as you nod your head and we make an agreement, they're yours!"

The boy stared at Ian, who had opened his eyes, and his expression suddenly froze when he heard those words.

"Intellectually, it's really hard to choose, but I refuse." Ian said lightly: "I, Ian, just like to say 'no' to those guys who think they have everything in control to reject them. ”

"Before you, I made an agreement with Lu Mingfei, I said that I would invite him to eat 100 servings of KFC and arrange work for him, these things should not be decided by us, he should be allowed to do it himself."

The tide was silent, the lightning went out, and Ian returned to the quaint main hall, the feeling of being in control of everything vanished from him.

The boy let out a long sigh, his eyes sad.

"Do you have to be this big brother?"

"It's not that I have to be it, it's because he calls me boss, and besides, he helped me, so I must help him."
