Don’t Confiscate My Citizenship - Chapter 678
Chapter 678: Lan Qi meets the red-haired boy again
The next day.
Monday in Parrieux.
Looking up at the sky at night, the stars are shining brightly.
“It’s almost autumn.”
One of the great benefits of the open-air arena is that you can look up and see the stars at any time.
Having said that, he didn’t have any special feelings.
It has come to the end of August.
This slightly hot season is almost over.
The St. Silver Vine Arena in District 6 on the north bank of Parrieu, the capital of Poisson, is not too far from Count Baptiste’s Palace in District 4 of Parrieu, a prosperous area.
The competition of other competitors is still going on. The surrounding auditoriums are layered on top of each other, extending upward to the top of the arena. Each layer can provide the best viewing angle. The cheers and shouts in a branch hall are gathered from time to time. It’s deafening.
Christina’s heart beat faster and she tried without hope.
We waited like this for a long time.
“Well, it’s hard to find players who are willing to challenge you these days.”
If you can’t wait at other times, it is even more difficult to encounter the commission in the one or two hours in this arena.
Inquiring into a strong man’s strength is like asking a girl’s age. It may be considered offensive.
Finding Level 6 to fight him is a gift of money.
The feature of this Holy Silver Vine Arena is the movable roof, which can be opened or closed as needed. Even if you get tired of watching the game, you can still see the bright starry sky from a panoramic perspective at any time when the weather is good.
Lan Qi sighed softly, with a helpless smile in his eyes, and said.
“Then, if you encounter an eighth-level enemy…”
Christina is looking forward to someone like the hook-nosed wealthy businessman from last time entrusting them to play the game.
“You can fight, but you can’t win.”
Christina let go of the railing and finally shook her head and recognized the reality.
I always feel like I might miss some opportunities if I just leave like this.
Except for a reporter who came over to find out about the villainous daughter, who was dealt with professionally by Lan Qi, no employer ever came to discuss employment matters with Christina.
Lanqi was waiting on the left side behind Christina and spoke.
It’s not that no one wants to hire Rocky, but that no opponent is willing to hire him. Today, Rocky won easily.
In her opinion, if she is lucky, she may be able to pay enough liquidated damages to Butler Lodge today.
Today, after Lanci finished his day’s work at Earl Baptiste’s Mansion, he was called by Christina, the eldest lady of the Earl’s family, and came to this arena to play an agent game.
Christina was waiting in front of the fence of the spectator stand in the branch library and observed the expression of the brown-haired and green-eyed butler beside her.
Lanqi thought for a moment and replied.
Because in the new week, the contract that “any family member can use the housekeeper for up to two additional hours per week” was also refreshed, and Christina did not hesitate to use it.
In fact, the reputation of Rocky McCarthy, the butler of Earl Baptiste’s family, has been fermenting in the past two days. Really interested competition commissions may be sent to the Earl’s Mansion on weekdays.
The two of them have been waiting in the Holy Silver Vine Arena after finishing the mercenary match.
Even now she was vaguely worried that the housekeeper was lying to her.
She has actually been curious about this question for a long time, but she has never dared to ask.
“Rocky, can you reach the seventh level?”
The main reason is that the mana supply is insufficient, and the tower is not a strong attack type. If it fails to defeat the opponent within a minute or two, it will definitely lose.
Today they only played one hired match and then had no games.
Christina turned around and looked at the housekeeper who had been waiting for a long time behind her and asked.
When the time comes that she has taken out 50,000 pounds, the other party may not leave.
It’s a pity that the truth is cruel.
So, now she can only sit in a spectator stand in the arena branch, resting her hands on the railing, looking at the sky boredly.
“Miss Christina, it seems no one is fighting us.”
“Don’t worry, miss, I will keep my word.”
At least this week, it seemed that she had no chance of firing the housekeeper and would have to keep him working at home for a week.
Secondly, if someone is looking for Rocky in a proxy match, the opponent will not be willing to fight.
The output based on status is greatly reduced.
Because at present, it is basically possible to see what level Rocky is.
“Anyway, we have saved more than 30,000 pounds, and we will be able to cash it out soon.”
First of all, even if there are players willing to play in the points match, it will be more challenging to try against Rocky. The odds are one-sided and there is no money to be made from betting.
Since she had already spoken, she might as well be brave enough to ask the question, not knowing whether Butler Lodge would answer her.
“Run, turn around and run.”
Lan Qi smiled sincerely.
“oh!”
Christina understands.
There is actually a seventh-level butler in my family!
The seventh level is not a matter of price, it is simply not available.
You must know that the entire Posen Kingdom is only at the third level and the eighth level.
Except for them, the seventh level is invincible.
Under normal circumstances, no strong person will enter a state of combat in the core city of Parrieux, because it will trigger the full suppression of the city defense barrier, so the usefulness of force in such areas is often reduced to a minimum.
But Christina, who often pays attention to the news, has a premonition that things are going to change in the Southern Continent recently.
Although it was not felt in the flower capital Parrieu in the north of the kingdom, people at the southern border of Poisson were said to be panicked, and many announcements were issued one after another.
Consulates in various countries are also notifying citizens abroad to return home as soon as possible in the near future.
“Miss, I am taking advantage of the school vacation to return to the Posen Kingdom from the Aloran Kingdom. On the one hand, I simply want to come back, but on the other hand, I am a little worried. I suggest that if you notice that something is wrong with the current situation, you can actually apply for a leave of absence. One year, first stay in Parrieux.”
Lanchi observed Christina’s expression and said to her.
Christina turned around in surprise at first and looked up at Lan Qi, as if she felt her mind was being read.
“I don’t know what the specific information received by the United Kingdom Council is, but I hope nothing will happen in the future.”
She breathed a sigh of relief and answered calmly.
Whether it is the Creation Empire in the kingdoms or the United Kingdom Council in the Creation Empire, they all have certain intelligence sources. Often the intelligence from the United Kingdom Council will not deviate too much. During this period, the Southern Continent may be approaching a critical point at any time. Clicked.
At best, nothing may really happen in the next year or two.
But turmoil is as unpredictable as a storm, and you never know when it will start.
Perhaps this autumn, the world will change.
It may be any day, any time period, or even any second.
If troubled times come, having a loyal seventh-level guardian in the family will be more useful than any amount of money.
“How about it, Miss? Are you considering not firing me now?”
Lan Qi asked with an interested smile.
For the time being, he listened to Boss Cat reading the newspaper. The news made Boss Cat very worried.
But he felt there was no problem. The Senate in the Posen Kingdom had guaranteed to take care of the safety of their foreign invited visitors.
Poisson and Hutton, as allies, will take care of the citizens of the other country once external turmoil begins, unless civil strife or regime change occurs, which may lead to extremely terrible situations.
“No, our agreement will not change. I don’t want my family to owe anything to a seventh-level powerhouse. I won’t take advantage of you.”
Christina shook her head firmly.
…”
Lan Qi choked.
“Huhu.”
Thalia chuckled happily in Lanci’s heart.
This little girl rejected Lan Qi for at least the third time. His self-righteous deal was completely unworkable.
“Since there is no entrustment, let me take you home.”
Lanci looked at the time on the crystal screen of the Holy Silver Vine Arena and said to Christina.
Being laughed at by Talia made Lan Qi very depressed.
“Well.”
Christina nodded first, then hesitantly raised her head to look at the sky, and then moved her eyes to Lan Qi’s face.
“What, do you have any other ideas?”
Lanci asked.
“By the way, will you protect my safety?”
Christina asked him.
“Of course, this is my responsibility. It is very important to me to ensure that the work is perfect.”
Lanci replied calmly.
The cat boss in the shadow agrees with this sentence.
Lan Qi might even risk his life if he becomes dedicated.
“Then can you take me to visit the Posen Demon World? I haven’t been there since I was a child, and my father and brother won’t let me go.”
Christina glanced up at Lan Qi timidly and a little expectantly.
“Although it’s no problem…”
Lanqi always felt that the other party was a little rude.
It seems that he is not regarded as a bodyguard, but as some kind of ominous thing that can drive away danger.
“Let’s go, take a little stroll and then go home within an hour.”
Lan Qi looked at the time again and agreed simply.
He and Thalia have not been to the Demon Realm since they came to Posen Kingdom.
Originally I planned to go to Posen Demon Realm to have a look after finishing all the business.
But since Christina has made such a request, she should go to the devil world to see the devil first as she fulfills her official duties.
“Great!”
Christina clenched her fists and couldn’t wait to set off.
She adjusted her skirt, motioned for Rocky to follow her, and walked lightly towards the passage leaving the audience stand.
Many citizens of Parrieu dare not enter areas 7 to 10, which are part of the Poisen Demon Realm.
Her brother Kyle Baptiste was as courageous as he once took the demon bodyguards with him.
Although theoretically the Posen Demon Realm is not that dangerous, if you are used to staying in safe places, you will indeed feel that the security of the Demon Realm is relatively poor.
If you take Rocky with you, there will definitely be no problem.
After all, he is super good at warding off evil spirits.
…
District 6 of Parrieux, where the Holy Silver Vine Arena is located, is only one kilometer away from the border of District 7 of Posen Demon Realm.
Late in the middle of the night in Parrieu, when the city was immersed in the silence of the silvery moonlight, Lan Qi and Christina had already arrived at the entrance to Posen’s Demonic World.
Through the narrow alleys on the edge of District 6, Lanci and Christina found a hidden door on the side of a church that had been forgotten by time.
This door is made of weathered oak and covered with fine vines.
However, after opening the door, the view suddenly became brighter.
The vast hall of the station entrance is filled with inspection gates.
“Miss, please don’t run away casually when you arrive at the Posen Demon Realm. You must stay with me.”
Lanci reminded.
“Okay, okay.”
Christina looked around intently, as if everything was new, and replied.
The two went to the workbench to complete the formalities and passed the gate.
As the mirror shaped like a void door in front of them began to glow with warm golden light, they slowly passed through.
Next, a passage filled with light gradually appeared in the field of vision, and the end seemed to be connected to a completely different world.
The moment they completely passed through the light door, they seemed to have crossed time and space and arrived at a street in Parrieux that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
On the street, the floating light **** slowly spread out, illuminating the city in the night. Most of the pedestrians were demons.
On the other hand, it is easier for humans to attract the attention of demons.
This is District 7 of Parrieux. Behind them, a huge copper mechanical clock tower stands in the night sky. Every time the bell rings, it is like reminding them that this is a jurisdiction different from their original world.
“When we return to the bell tower later, we can cross the barrier and return to Parrieux 6 through the pass.”
Lanchi explained to Christina.
At this moment, she seemed a little absent-minded, and her attention was entirely focused on admiring the Posen Demon World, which was so close but had not been there since she was a child.
“Take me to see the Posen Demon Realm quickly.”
Christina glanced at the time on the clock tower and quickly said to Lan Qi.
The housekeeper doesn’t have much working time, and he will probably only play with her for an hour at most before leaving.
“Um.”
Lan Qi nodded and motioned for her to walk towards the brighter business district ahead.
“Currently, District 7 where we are located has poor security, and accidents often occur. On the contrary, Districts 9 and 10, with their eighth-level lords, have the best security.”
He reminded Christina.
Districts 7, 8, 9, and 10 of Huadu Parrieu are each under the jurisdiction of a demon lord.
Two of them are seventh-level demons, and two are eighth-level demons.
“oh oh.”
After hearing this, Christina nodded cautiously and followed the housekeeper.
When the Posen Kingdom signed an acceptance contract with the demons a hundred years ago, the Posen Kingdom Senate respected the demons by not interfering with the demons’ culture in the territory allocated to the demons, nor requiring them to follow human rules. social order.
So there may be a big difference between District 6 and District 7, and it is no longer safe once you enter the Posen Demon Realm.
But she feels that this division is actually good for both parties.
Whatever kind of life you want to live, follow the rules of that side.
Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Christina shuttled through the streets full of devilish style and miracles.
On the skyline of District 7 of Parrieux, bright skyscrapers, churches and floating courtyards from another dimension are connected together. The night sky is not only dark blue, but also occasionally shows light golden fireflies, like a mirror reflecting the city. .
It is said that there is a city called Helrom in the northern continent, which has many ruins with the characteristics of the demon world, which are somewhat similar to the Posen Demon Realm in some corners.
They were on a street called Avenue of Illusions.
The night sky in the Posen Demon Realm becomes extremely beautiful due to the supernatural phenomena caused by the space magic enchantment. The Avenue of Illusions is the best place to watch this kind of night sky.
In District 7, there is a famous Illusion Night Market, which is nearby.
She just walked a short distance and bought a lot of snacks, and even gave some to Butler Rocky.
For example, “Star Candy” is said to contain a small amount of star magic. After eating it, you can temporarily feel the wonderful feeling of floating in the night sky. There is also “Ghost Bread”, which is made of transparent wheat unique to the Posen Demon World. Made to taste both like clouds and marshmallows.
To Christina’s expectation, Butler Lodge accepted them all and did not refuse her sharing.
Unconsciously, more than half an hour passed.
Looking at the less and less time, Christina was still a little reluctant to part with this novel trip to the Posen Demon World.
From time to time, she looked at the dark blue mirrored night sky, and then looked back at the mechanical clock tower.
The housekeeper Lodge beside him seemed to be looking at the street.
“What are you looking at?”
Christina asked.
“I heard that on the Avenue of Illusions in Posen Demon Realm, there is a small chance that you will encounter a magic dessert float at night. The dessert float is run by a demon dessert master. This kind of ice cream can make people feel extremely happy in an instant. And improve a small number of attributes in a short period of time, but there is only a very small chance of encountering the magic dessert float.”
Lanchi looked at the road and explained to Christina.
“This depends on luck.”
Christina slapped her hands in relief.
The thing that makes her most uncomfortable with Butler Rocky is that he seems to be very greedy and always cares about food. However, Christina feels that this butler does not seem to be a very greedy person. , and she hadn’t even seen Rocky eat.
But as long as he doesn’t eat children, that’s fine.
There have been no disappearances near Count Baptiste’s house recently.
“Are you thinking of something very rude…”
Lan Qi looked at her doubtfully.
He always felt that he might really understand Thalia.
How can there be such a disrespectful employer?
Question Tata, understand Tata, and become Tata.
He seemed to have really walked Thalia’s path.
The two of them were walking and chatting under the night sky of Posen Demon World.
I didn’t miss this novel place much.
After all, their route plan was very clear and they agreed to return on time.
“Wait a minute, Miss, did you hear some noise in the distance?”
Lan Qi narrowed his eyes and gradually slowed down his pace.
“Have it?”
Christina stopped and looked at him.
She has heard about the characteristics of the Posen Demon World. Bank robberies, serial car accidents, and large-scale accidents are all common occurrences in District 7.
Boom!
Suddenly, just as they were enjoying the tranquility and beauty of this magical night, there was a sound of broken glass on the building in the distance, breaking the calm of the urban area of Parrieux 7.
Then there was a burst of noise, vaguely chaotic, sometimes intermittent, sometimes high-pitched and intense.
The two of them looked in the direction of the sound source. Many residents were walking through the streets in the distance with hurried steps. Their faces were panicked, as if they were avoiding a dangerous area.
Lanci immediately gave Christina a distant look.
“This is Posen’s Demonic World, very everyday.”
Lanchi hoped that Christina would stay calm.
But he found that Christina did not seem to be too panicked. Her curiosity drove her to follow some demon citizens who were taking refuge, and she looked cautiously in the direction of the commotion.
The turmoil became clearer and clearer like a surround sound, and gradually the sound of roaring, metal clashing, and the occasional explosion bursting into flames could be discerned.
The street lights on the Avenue of Illusions seemed to be dimmed, and only the panicked demon citizens ran past.
“What’s the matter, Miss? Do you want to watch this as a sideshow?”
Lan Qi looked down at the blond lady beside him and asked.
“It’s impossible.”
She shook her head repeatedly, finally came to her senses, and was about to turn around and leave.
However.
Before she had time to react, she subconsciously held her head because of the loud noise in the distance.
I only saw two black shadows passing by in the sky in the distance. They shuttled quickly between the buildings, chasing from the facade of one building to the wall of another building. Every time they touched the ground, they were accompanied by the sound of broken wall bricks. Sound and dust flew as the entire city trembled with their battle.
The battle was extremely fierce, with the two figures sometimes intertwined and sometimes separated.
The pursuer wielded a long black knife, and each swing brought up a fiery crimson storm, lighting up the surrounding corridors.
The figure that escaped and wreaked havoc was hideous and ugly, like a deformed little giant.
“Nigel is here, run!”
The demons running past Lan Qi and Christina shouted in horror. It seemed that they were more afraid of the sergeant chief in the executioner uniform than the mad and deformed cursed demon.
Lan Qi, who was about to leave, turned around with some hesitation and looked in the direction of the battlefield.
He heard a familiar name.
In Huatu Parrieux, humans are not afraid of Nigel the Executioner at all, but in the eyes of the demons, he seems to be a lone evil star.
“Do you know Duke Tiffany’s executioner?”
Christina noticed Lan Qi’s reaction and asked.
…”
Lanci did not confirm her question, nor did he deny it.
Just raised his hand to signal Christina to stay behind him.
The surrounding Demon Race citizens kept running by, some of them couldn’t bear to watch the excitement and turned around every three steps.
“Excuse me, what’s going on over there?”
Lan Qi stopped a reporter-like demon who was not running in a hurry and asked.
“It seems that there was a human who got into trouble with the Square Piece Gang and was hunted down in District 7 of Parrieu for two or three days. Not only did the Square Piece Gang fail to kill her, they also tortured and killed many of their members, and finally surrounded her. Even the gang boss was almost beaten to death by her, but who knew that the gang boss was a cursed person. At this time, he went crazy and killed her. If Nigel hadn’t arrived to save her, she probably would have died. It’s really dead.”
The demon reporter picked up the magic equipment and took a few photos in the direction of the high-rise building, while quickly telling Lan Qi,
“But it’s really weird, her head was almost smashed but she’s not dead yet. Is this really the vitality of human beings…”
The demon reporter took pictures in the distance and muttered.
He felt safe around this human being, and it was a good place to take pictures.
But it was not a good place to stay for a long time. The demon reporter quickly said goodbye and ran away.
Hearing this, Lan Qi once again looked in the direction where the battle was getting more intense.
If you look carefully, you can see that Nigel is fighting a mad demon. He is holding a knife in his right hand, and is also holding a magic device chain in his right hand. The semi-suspended chain is tightly wrapped around a humanoid figure covered in blood, and he is holding it. Protected.
I’m afraid that this time the mad demon is not the fourth level like Lissancy last time, but a powerful demon with a full sixth level that has been cursed and turned mad.
On the one hand, Nigel did not dare to use all his strength because of the surrounding demonic residents who had not yet been evacuated. On the other hand, he wanted to catch the opponent rather than kill him directly.
“Roar!!”
The bodies of the berserk and cursed demons are covered with scars. They are not only powerful but also constantly perform violent magic, trying to overwhelm Nigel with their endless rage and strength.
But Nigel always kept an eye on the battlefield.
Protect innocent residents from harm.
Whenever danger approaches innocent people, he can always block the attack with the back of his sword in time, and then quickly move them to a safe place.
Obviously, in this capture battle, Nigel, as an executioner, has rich experience in dealing with berserk curse wielders.
It didn’t take long for him to lead the mad curse holder to the wide road of Fantasy Avenue.
He no longer has to worry about demon residents being affected.
He clenched the hilt of the knife with both hands, leaned forward slightly, and turned into black thunder and struck at the mad curse holder.
Just when Nigel was about to succeed, he struck the mad curse holder with the back of his knife accurately.
He suddenly seemed to realize something and moved the blade to his side, and in the blink of an eye a new black figure appeared on the battlefield.
The sudden shadow kicked Nigel hard in the chest.
The terrifying force caused Nigel to be instantly knocked away and smashed into the wall of a building. Dust flew up amid the loud noise.
When the smoke gradually dissipates.
Nigel struggled to stand up from the rubble.
He held the handle of the knife tightly in his hand.
Although he successfully blocked the attack, the force still made his arm tremble slightly.
“What the hell, Nigel, just kill him.”
Standing there, a demon with a calm expression pushed the maniacally cursed person to the ground. The other hand he stretched out was about to pierce the head of the maniacally cursed man.
“Don’t kill him!”
Nigel immediately rushed over and swung his sword to repel the mad curse holder, but he did not hit the demon.
The demon male seemed to have dodged Nigel’s attack by jumping back slightly just now.
“Nigel, you are so hypocritical. You even killed the daughter of your mentor, Mr. Perlman, without hesitation. Do you want to atone for your sins now? You can’t even attack those who are crazy and cursed?”
His crimson eyes sparkled with a playful light. He was wearing a black satin coat and his long black hair was spread freely.
“Astros, I’m performing official duties, don’t come in my way!”
Nigel had veins pulsing on his forehead, suppressing his anger, he shouted to the demon male.
The male demon with a pale and delicate face, hiding a wild beauty that is difficult to detect, is none other than the demon lord of Parrie 7, Astros. “Oh? In my territory, my authority is higher than yours. Unless your master Tiffany comes, I might give her some face.”
The demon lord Astros’s voice was particularly contemptuous.
…”
Nigel knew that the other party was here to cause trouble, so he stopped trying to communicate. His eyes were sharp for a moment, while he paid attention to the movements of Demon Lord Astros, and used his peripheral vision to watch the mad cursed person who had stood up again.
After all, I was about to control the madness of the demons. Now there is a messy magic leader. Nejer only feels a headache.
The night is as dark as ink.
Accompanied by the smoke, fire and explosion sounds like an iron foundry.
The end of the Avenue of Illusions quickly escalated into an unprecedented melee.
The battle between the three parties broke out again between the mad cursed person, the executioner Nigel, and the demon lord Astros.
The eyes of the berserk cursed person burned with blood-red light, no longer hiding the bottomless madness, and emitted a piercing scream, which seemed to penetrate the depths of the soul, and rushed toward Nigel at an unimaginable speed. Launched an impact.
In this regard, Nigel was unusually calm. He skillfully held the long black knife in front of him.
After engaging the enemy, block, deflect, slash, and flip the blade up and down in one go.
The demon lord Astros also uses his almost instinctive fighting skills and understanding of his kind. Every time he stabs the berserk cursed person with his palm, it is not only extremely accurate but also full of beauty.
But they were all blocked by Nigel.
“Hahaha, Nigel, I didn’t hit you, you volunteered to help him block the attack.”
The demon lord Astros kept laughing.
…”
Nigel made no response to Astros’ provocation.
Facing the mad cursed person, his heart is full of complexities.
He understands the threat posed by the other side and firmly believes that non-lethal solutions must be found.
Just when the demon lord Astros suddenly stretched out his hand to pierce the brain of the mad cursed person, Nigel once again stood between them and received the fatal attack with his own blade.
These successive blocks immediately put Nigel into a double attack.
Behind the scenes is a maniacal curse wielder who has lost his mind and moves fiercely and uncontrollably.
In front of him is the cold and deadly demon lord Astros.
Nigel is caught in the eye of the storm and must resist fierce attacks from two sides at the same time.
This kind of tightrope walking situation, if you make one wrong move, you will lose everything.
…
The other side of the Avenue of Illusions.
Under the streetlight, Lan Qi was still watching all this quietly.
“I want to go and help Mr. Nigel.”
Lanchi frowned slightly and said to Thalia in his heart.
“Go.”
Thalia agreed.
She felt that she and Lanqi owed Nigel a favor.
Lanqi moved his eyes from the battlefield to Christina beside him.
His primary purpose was to go over and help Nigel subdue the mad demons, and then let Nigel safely bring the mad demons back to Parrieux 1 for investigation.
Lan Qi leaned down and picked up a dark kitten from the ground.
“Don’t run far away. Wait until I come back and hold this cat well. If you are in danger, it will save you.”
He handed over the cat boss and said to Christina.
“okay.”
Christina took the little black cat in a daze, not even seeing where the housekeeper had summoned an almost fifth-level elf beast.
Next, Lanqi gave Tata control of part of his body.
…
At the end of the illusory avenue that looks like a three-party melee.
Just as the confrontation between Nigel and Astros was about to reach its climax.
They all noticed an approaching figure in the distance.
He was wearing a neat butler’s uniform and walked leisurely, as if he didn’t care about the boiling battlefield and was just going for a walk.
As he approached the center of the battle, even in the melee of flames, he was able to find room to move forward without any impact, escaping the aftermath by a small margin.
The more he does this, the more he looks like a gentleman who has been in the wrong situation.
Neither the Executioner Nigel nor the Demon Lord Astros could figure out what this random brown-haired, green-eyed butler was trying to do.
“Nigel, I finally found a chance to repay you. Let’s continue the life-and-death battle that we didn’t finish last time.”
Lanqi had almost reached the center of the battlefield, stared at Nigel and said, and then accelerated into the battlefield.
“Nigel, you have offended so many people!”
The demon lord Astros immediately raised his head and laughed when he heard this.
This brown-haired, green-eyed butler is Nigel’s enemy at first glance.
And he didn’t lie at all!
It can be easily judged from his emotional words and calm fluctuations of magic power.
Just when the demon lord Astros laughed.
Lanchi gave him a hard elbow in the back.
The demon lord had no time to be surprised as to why this human moved so fast. He only felt a heartbreaking pain, and his whole body seemed to be cursed, unable to move. Then Nigel took the opportunity and hit him hard with the handle of his knife. His chin felt like stars were popping up in his eyes for a moment.
In the end, Astros was swaying and had no chance to dodge. Nigel hit him on the head several times with the back of the knife with all his strength, until his whole head was smashed into the ground. Finally Astros was defeated. Passed out temporarily.
…”
Christina and Cat Boss in the distance saw their eyelids twitching.
It’s so despicable.
This guy obviously wants to help Nigel.
But he seemed to have not lied. It was Demon Lord Astros who had misunderstood.
It is hard to imagine that when Astros wakes up, this brown-haired, green-eyed human will be banned from entering Area 7 in the future.
“Huh, that’s a big help.”
With no Astros to cause trouble on the battlefield, Nigel and the butler worked together to subdue the berserk cursed man in the blink of an eye.
With the same treatment as Astros, Nigel hit him with the back of his knife several times, knocking the maniacal cursed person unconscious completely, and then took out another chain magic device from the inner pocket of his military uniform to restrain him. got up.
“Are you a blunt weapon?”
Lan Qi was surprised.
“This knife doesn’t have a sharp edge, but it’s heavy.”
Nigel put away the black knife and took back the red-haired girl who was protected by the magic chain device from the distance in mid-air.
He didn’t know why he accepted this strange man’s words.
Although the other party’s purpose is unclear, he has been helping him since he showed up, so he will not make things difficult for the other party.
“Nigel, it’s me.”
Lan Qi changed his voice and whispered.
…?”
Nigel suddenly realized something and grabbed Lan Qi’s arm.
He held the chain tightly with his other hand and brought the wrapped mad demon and the half-dead red-haired girl to the high building.
“Lanchi Wilford?”
Nigel asked, looking at the brown-haired and green-eyed young man in front of him with uncertainty.
“right.”
Lanci nodded, walked to the edge of the top floor of the high-rise building, and paid attention to Christina’s position on the Avenue of Illusions in the distance downstairs.
Although there is a cat boss, he is still worried that an enemy with malicious intentions will approach her in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, Thalia used Lanci’s body to raise her hand and reach out to the mad curse wielder who fainted on the ground.
…surrender to me.”
He muttered silently.
The next second, the ferocious deformed demon on the ground gradually softened and turned into a strong demon.
“Thanks.”
Even though it was the second time for Nigel to witness the process of lifting this forbidden curse, he still found it incredible.
And besides Miss Tata, Lan Qi can also cast spells.
But Nigel didn’t ask any more questions.
“I’m going back to report to the Senate first. I’ll leave this human to you, okay?”
Nigel pulled over another chain and handed it to Lanci. He now had to send the cured high-level cursed person back to the Senate as soon as possible. He didn’t have much time to send this human to the hospital for treatment.
“No problem at all.”
Lan Qi took the chain and was slightly surprised when he saw the figure.
If her clothes weren’t stained red by blood, Lan Qi wouldn’t have noticed that her hair color was originally red.
Looking at her clothes and face carefully, he suddenly remembered the opponent he had seen at the Holy Silver Vine Arena the night before yesterday, the violent red-haired boy.
“do you know her?”
Nigel noticed Lan Qi’s eyes and asked.
“We met her once, don’t worry, I will take good care of her.”
Ranchi assured.
“I’m leaving.”
Nigel said goodbye.
“Okay, don’t be alone.”
Lanci reminded.
He gestured to Nigel to keep eye contact with him on the way back.
“clear.”
Nigel nodded, he understood what Lan Qi meant.
Although the journey back to Area 6 is short, they should try to keep it in the opponent’s field of vision, otherwise the possibility of being stolen by the enemy in the process is not ruled out.
They immediately returned to the Avenue of Illusions from the high-rise building to find Christina who was waiting for them, and began to return to the city of Huadu Parrieux.
…
at the same time.
At the other end of the deep night in the Posen Demon Realm, it can only barely illuminate the dilapidated buildings and dense shadows on the roadside.
The street lights were scattered sporadically, but most of them had been extinguished, leaving only a few that gave off a dim and flickering light.
Whenever the wind blows, the windows sway gently and make a whimpering sound.
I do not know how long it has been.
A figure came out of a dark corner.
His figure appeared blurry under the dim street lights, and his face was covered by a deep hat brim, only his cold chin and corners of his mouth were exposed.
The shadow stretched and twisted beneath his feet, as if it had a life of its own, squirming as he moved.
These shadows danced in the unstable light, sometimes like tentacles reaching out to him, sometimes like black liquid spreading on the ground.
“Rocky McCarthy…”
“Who are you exactly…”
A voice came out of the corner of his mouth.
The first chance he had to take action was to kidnap the eldest lady.
However, a line of sight immediately fell on the eldest lady from high in the sky.
He also stopped and showed up.
The second chance was for him to end Nigel in this Posen Demon Realm.
In the end, this guy and Nigel didn’t completely separate.
Although he can kill Nigel before he returns to Area 6.
But now that he has taken action rashly and added Rocky McCarthy, he is not sure whether he can kill both of them.
Once one runs back to area 6, it will be bad.
But now he at least knows one piece of information.
The person who helped Nigel break the curse was the butler who worked at Earl Baptiste’s house, Rocky McCarthy.
“Hey, hey, the feast is about to begin…”
With a faint laugh, he disappeared at the end of the road.
…
The other side of Huadu Parrieux.
It is already late at night.
Saltpeter General Hospital, whose full name is Parrieux Saltpeter Medical Supply Center, is located in District 3 of Parrieux, the capital of the Kingdom of Poisson. It is the largest hospital in Parrieux with rich royal background and modern medical achievements.
It was originally built by Nicolas Fouquet, the finance minister of King Lanyi XIV of Poisson, as a facility for poor and sick women. The name Saltpeter comes from the original use of the site – a company that originally produced fire properties. The Factory of the Philosopher’s Stone.
Over centuries of evolution, the hospital gradually developed into a large medical complex. Now it is not only a hospital providing medical services to Parrieux, but also one of the important centers of medical research and education in the entire southern continent.
Night covers the upper floors of Parrieux Saltpeter Hospital.
In a single ward facing this splendid city, the bright moonlight shines through the gaps in the curtains and falls on every inch of the space like a trickle.
This ward is simply decorated, with the lights in the room dimmed to the darkest level, leaving only a bedside lamp emitting a soft yellow glow, giving the entire space a light golden color.
On a pure white hospital bed, a red-haired girl lay quietly in it.
Her body was wrapped in fresh bandages, and there were a few faint stains of dried blood.
Despite this, she has survived the life crisis safely.
as time flows.
The red-haired girl gradually regained some consciousness from her deep sleep.
Her eyelashes fluttered slightly with difficulty.
It feels like the vision is pitch black.
Everything was extremely quiet in her ears. Only the occasional light footsteps in the corridor and the low voice of the night nurse talking in the distance slightly broke the silence.
After nearly half a minute, she finally slowly opened her eyes.
At first, she felt a little confused. She turned her head hard and her eyes wandered around the ward, as if she was trying to identify this quiet space.
The red-haired girl’s sight finally stopped at the quiet night scene outside the window. The skyline of Parrieux was outlined in the distance. A half-waned moon hung high in the sky, spreading silver light to the sleeping city.
When she tried to move her body, she felt numbness from the area where the bandage was wrapped, as if the body was not her own at all.
“here it is…”
The red-haired girl slowly struggled to sit up from the bed, and the blood stains on the bandage wrapped around her body became darker again.
She realized she was not alone in the room and immediately became alert.
Standing on the side of the ward, there was a man wearing a dark butler’s uniform, brown hair and gentle green eyes. He looked polite.
Beside the bed, there was a blond girl. Her posture was both aristocratic and elegant, but also a little worried.
She always felt that she had some impression of these two people, but not deeply and couldn’t remember who they were.
“Who exactly are you?”
The red-haired girl’s voice was obviously wary and cold.
“Why am I here? What are your plans for me?”
She clenched her hands, keeping ready to fight the two of them at any time.
“Do you remember who you are?”
Christina asked first.
She asked worriedly as she looked at the bandage on the red-haired girl’s forehead that was starting to turn red again.
Logically speaking, Inoan, who had just fought against them at the Holy Silver Vine Arena the day before yesterday, should not fail to recognize the two of them.
The doctor’s diagnosis report is that Miss Inouan suffered many fatal injuries and survived solely due to her physical fitness. However, her brain was severely damaged and she may suffer from physical incoordination, drastic changes in temperament, and memory loss.
Christina’s question stunned the red-haired girl.
“who I am…?”
The red-haired girl reached out in confusion, touched her cheek, and muttered to herself.
Looking at the mirror, I was stunned for a long time and couldn’t come up with an answer.
finally.
“Your name is Ian Hornlenthal.”
Lanci handed her her ID and said to her.
“Then who are you?”
Inoan took the small bag of belongings, including her wallet and ID, and looked up at the two of them.
After checking, she found that it was indeed hers.
“My name is Rocky McCarthy, and she is Christina Baptiste. Don’t be so wary of me. We sent you to the hospital. You can ask the doctor and the police.”
Lanchi explained.
“Well…”
Inoan covered her head hard. Even if the blood gradually began to penetrate the gauze, she didn’t seem to feel anything.
Her mind was a mess, and she tried hard to search for fragments of memory, but she could only find chaos and fear, like she was directionless in a thick fog.
The only feeling that remains engraved in my heart is that I seem to be in a life crisis.
The desolation of being chased was deeply engraved in her heart!
As for the identity of the two people who seemed to have an impression in front of me, I just felt that it was not these two people who were chasing me.
“Can you think of anything? If there is anyone who needs help, we will help you.”
In fact, Lan Qi has been very worried about Yi Nuoan since he met her the day before yesterday. He asked sincerely.
He always suspected that there was something wrong with Enoch’s mental state.
The current situation is not a bad thing for Inoan.
…”
Innoan shook his head.
Having no money, no relatives or friends, only a solitary identity document, and still being hunted.
“what do I do?”
After a long time, Inoan looked up at the two of them and asked.
At this moment, the red-haired girl seemed to be standing at a crossroads, and the thick fog of memory made her full of doubts about everything.
She knew that the only thing she could rely on in this unknown environment was her own intuition.
ˆAlthough the brown-haired housekeeper and the blond woman in front of her seemed harmless, she was extremely insecure now and anyone could be a potential threat.
The intense uneasiness caused by the missing memory made her nerves tense.
“Well, then, you come to Baptiste’s house to work as a short-term maid, let Rocky teach you how to work, and then you can find other jobs, and you should be able to support yourself.”
Christina suggested.
After Rocky Butler defeated Enochian that day, she felt that Enochian was a little pitiful.
Unexpectedly, the red-haired boy was actually a girl.
Now she couldn’t feel the terrifying aura on the other person’s body at all. She only felt that maybe the other person’s desperation was related to the fact that she had caused her to lose money, and she felt guilty.
…”
Inoan was very hesitant, feeling that the blond girl in front of him didn’t look like a bad person at all.
Her face was still pale.
“Here, I’ll give you something to eat.”
Christina seemed to have remembered something, so she took out the ghost bread she bought in the Demon World and handed it to her.
Inoan raised his hand tentatively, then took the bread bag, tore open the package and brought the transparent bread to his mouth, as if he hadn’t eaten well in two or three days.
After eating, the ward fell into silence again.
After being silent for nearly a minute, she finally nodded and agreed to the other party’s proposal.
“Let’s go.”
Innoan stepped off the bed, staggered, and held on to the end of the bed before he could barely stand.
The bandage on his body started to turn red again, maybe the wound had split.
“You don’t have to be in such a hurry to go to work, I can give you an advance on your wages.”
Christina helped Inoan with some worry.
Inoan looked at her.
She didn’t actually want to return the favor, she just felt that following these two people would be safer than staying in the hospital.
What she lacks most now is a sense of security. Everything is strange and she can’t tell the difference between true and false.
She had an inexplicable impression of these two people, and it seemed that they had never had any ill intentions towards her.
“I feel no pain.”
Innoan said calmly.
This is the only thing she is sure of.
She felt no pain. Even when she was beaten to the point of death, she only felt stiff and it was inconvenient to move her body.
Suddenly, Inoan felt a line of sight.
“…Why are you looking at me like this? Isn’t it supposed to be a good thing if you don’t feel pain?”
Inoan noticed that the housekeeper’s emerald green eyes seemed to have a trace of compassion, which made her very uncomfortable.
“Pain is actually a very important protective signal. If you don’t know what pain is, you will be more likely to hurt yourself and others.”
Lan Qi said to himself.
“It won’t hurt me anyway.”
Innoan muttered to himself nonchalantly.
She doesn’t think this is a bad thing, otherwise the wounds on her body would cause her a lot of suffering.
“Yeah.”
Lan Qi smiled and had no intention of delving into this issue with Inoan.
They can talk about some issues later, but the most important thing now is to take good care of her.
“Then I will be your employer.”
Christina said to Inoan happily.
She felt that Enoch was in a much better state now than when she first met him, and he was no longer so scary.
She has better taste than her brother.
Her brother hired a Rocky to go home, who looked like an evil **** no matter how he looked at it, but the Inoan she hired was obviously much more normal. If she looked closely, she was a pretty girl.
“I may be clumsy, don’t scold me.”
Inoan whispered.
Perhaps if you don’t do a good job, you will be fired immediately.
She always felt that she might have never done any work, and she had never worn the attire of a maid.
And she felt a little conflicted for no reason, as if she would lose something forever if she put on these clothes.
But it’s better than living on the streets and continuing to be hunted.
“It doesn’t matter, I will teach you whatever you don’t understand. Please take care of me during the next period of time.”
Lanchi said gently to Enoch.
I don’t know why, but he is doing more and more work.
However, Inoan is very strong. It is definitely a good thing for her to sign a contract and stay at Count Baptiste’s house. The incident of the cursed demon clan has become more and more intense recently, and Huadu may not be completely safe. Even if Lan Qi does not stay with the Count, Home, no matter what evil things are coming, it is good for the Count’s family to have another house thug.
