Steve was no taller than Lanaya's neck when he bent his waist, so much so that when Lanaya turned her head to look at him, Steve had the illusion that she was scorning herself. But Steve didn't seem to take this to heart, and when he saw that the other party was paying attention to himself, he put on a serious face and said coldly, "But if you dare to get even half a step closer to the ammunition depot or my workshop, don't think about coming back." ”

Lanaya nodded and whispered thank you. She tried to make a scared look as much as she could, after all, Steve was the boss here!

Steve stared at Lanaya for a long time before turning to his five apprentices and saying, "Come with me to the studio, I have something to tell you." ”

Lanaya had just seen Angus's expression, and it was thanks to Steve's words, "Since Angus likes you so much!" She stood there and said to Angus respectfully, "I'm here waiting for you to come out, sir." ”

Two days ago, Angus might have accepted Lanaya's humility for granted, but today he seemed a little uncomfortable. They are already people who have shared secrets, and they have made some promises to each other, although they are only some insignificant promises, but they are definitely not the master-slave relationship they used to be!

The master-slave relationship hurts Lanaya's heart too much to say it, Angus thinks.

Angus originally wanted Lanaya to go back to his house to rest, but since Lanaya said so, he didn't object, who made him like to stay with Lanaya more and more now......?

Lanaya watched as the six figures gradually walked into the studio, and she stood there alone, bowing her head and making a contemplative appearance.

Steve, I've finally met you.

Steve opens the doors protected by psionic combination locks and makes his way to the core of the studio. He took out a bag of gold coins from the safe, handed it to Owen, and said, "You go and buy five Phantom Snake Crystals and come back, remember, I will use them in three days, go now." ”

Owen took the money bag and nodded cautiously.

Steve looked at Owen seriously for a long time, nodded and said, "Nothing else." Go now, I need to continue my research. ”

Owen seemed to remember what Steve had said to him this morning, and when Steve looked at him, he felt extremely heavy.

......

A few minutes later, Ranaya saw the men come out.

Angus also thought about it, Lanaya had revealed her name, and now whether to continue to call her Xiao Qi or change her name, and then decided to use the original name: "Xiao Qi, I've been waiting for a long time." ”

Lanaya smiled at Angus and shook her head.

Owen opened the money bag and roughly counted the number of gold coins, and said with a wry smile: "There are only five thousand purple coins here." Ladies and gentlemen, the Phantom Serpent Crystal is a key ingredient that Master Steve has been in need of lately, but ...... The money he gave us couldn't buy even a penny. ”

"He meant let's go grab it. Simon's tone was a little disdainful.

"There are so many of us, can't we go hunt the phantom snake ourselves?" asked Lanaya.

"You don't seem to have anything to say here!" Rook gestured like he was about to rush up and punch Lanaya.

Angus stopped Rook, who was about to rush up, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, you let her order, she is one of us now, and we should also listen to her opinion." ”

Simon let out a sneer and said, "Do you know how difficult it is to deal with phantom snakes?" He seemed to be laughing at Lanaya for not seeing the world, maybe he hadn't even seen what the phantom snake looked like, and it was impossible to know how to deal with it when he encountered it!

Owen waved his hand to stop Simon, who had an indescribable aura of leadership in the group, and he walked up to Lanaya and said, "I'll see the strength of your psionic energy first. ”

Lanaya nodded, and cooperatively lit up a cluster of psionic light in her palm.

"Twenty-one ......" Angus exclaimed first, and then the others all made expressions of surprise to varying degrees.

Angus's expression was the most exaggerated, and he was already so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth, which can be said to be a treasure! Lanaya was originally picked up by him, this is a fact!

"Xiao Qi, you ......"

"I have to say, Angus, you have a good eye. You've picked up a genius this time. If she works a little harder in the next ten years, she can reach our level. ”

After Owen said this, he didn't forget to generously introduce Lanaya's current psionic energy strength. Owen was the strongest of the five, having reached level thirty-two, followed by Chris at thirty-one, then Simon and Rook, who were tied for third, both at level thirty, and Angus, who was at the bottom of the list, at level twenty-nine.

This information is not much different from the information that Lanaya had received before, Vernal said that this was information from nearly a year ago, and it is normal for one or two people to improve slightly.

"You're all so powerful, you can't deal with phantom snakes, how powerful are phantom snakes?" asked Lanaya.

"The Phantom Serpent is an extremely ferocious beast, and it is a trick to create illusions, and it has the poison that we paranormal fear the most. None of us know how to deal with phantom snakes, and we used to be undoubtedly sent to death. ”

"I don't know if you can hear my thoughts. Lanaya said, "Lord Owen, you have five thousand purple coins now, don't you?"

Owen nodded, and didn't make any deliberate moves to protect the money bag, that was because even if Lanaya suddenly thought about the money, he was confident that he could easily protect the money with his strength.

"My idea is that we can use this money to bring in a team of mercenaries. But I don't know anything about this, with so much money, what kind of mercenary team can I use?"

Angus suddenly clenched his fist with his right hand and knocked it down on the palm of his left hand, as if he had come up with the idea just now: "Xiao Qi, you are really ...... I didn't expect that!"

"It's a good idea. Owen nodded thoughtfully and said, "However, it is better to invite dozens of low-level mercenaries than to invite one elite soldier." It's better to have an elite soldier of our strength, and it's better if he has mastered the essentials of dealing with phantom snakes. ”

Owen's gaze circled among the other four, eventually resting on Angus. Angus closed his eyes as if he had known that this was going to happen, and he knew what Owen was going to say next: "I think it's only fitting that this glorious task is entrusted to you." Besides, don't you have a ...... Can the maid accompany you? I'm sure you'll be up to the task. ”

Angus agreed angrily, motioned for Lanaya to follow him, and walked out briskly alone.

A few senior brothers secretly sneered in the rear, and the ostracism that Angus had received in this place was not only Steve's attitude towards him, but also the oppression given to him by the other four people.

Soon after, the four of them also left the same place.

All of this was seen by Steve, who poked his head out of the studio.

"Twenty-one, this person ......" Steve couldn't help frowning at what they had just said, and when the figures of the young men completely disappeared from sight, he quietly left the studio, locked all the rooms, and walked out.

Sure enough, as Steve expected, he heard the news from the intelligence department in the legion, and the incident in the previous month was not done by the deputy commander at all, but someone else! Listening to the news from the East Meka Mountain City, the person who really did this "great thing" had fled, and had never appeared in the territory of the Xisha Empire!

After Steve figured this out, he didn't pay too much attention to this matter, although heroes are characters that every legion lacks, there is absolutely no room for heresy in a legion! Inexplicably, a psychic strength reached the twenty-first level, or a little girl who didn't seem to be an adult at all, what kind of thing is this?

Steve first found the mage examiner. When the examiner saw that it was Steve coming, he first bowed his head respectfully and asked, "Expert Steve, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Who the hell is Lanaya?" Steve asked directly.

The examiner also seemed to be particularly sensitive to the name Ranaya, after all, this genius was the first to be discovered by him! The examiner suddenly became excited, the light in his eyes was much brighter, he sat up straight, and leaned his head forward: "Lanaya, she is the one who was promoted from the second level to the third level under my nose a month ago! I heard that she was assigned to the patrol force after ten days of training in the mage phalanx, do you want to find her?"

"No, I'm not looking for her, you say she...... What? What did you say?" said Steve, suddenly.

"Lanaya went up a level right under my nose. This is a genius that is rare in a thousand years! Expert Steve, our Sunset Legion has produced a genius!"

"Do you know how many levels she is now?"

"How much?"

"Twenty-one!"

"You...... You're not kidding, have you? You've seen her?"

"I've never been a joker. Steve said solemnly, "Just now, that woman showed her spiritual strength under my nose, a true twenty-one. ”

"Oh my God. Is she a monster? I've never heard of someone with such a fast rate of psionic power advancement!"

"That's why I'm here to ask you where she's coming from!" Steve said word for word, "Tell me, who the hell is she?"

The examiner was frightened by Steve's sudden threat, perhaps because of Steve's own fierce appearance...... He stretched his neck in front of him and unconsciously shrank back a lot, and said, "I...... How do I know, we have tens of thousands of soldiers in the Sunset Legion, and I haven't checked their origins one by one, this is unnecessary!"
