In Backlund, on Townsend Street at the junction of Queens and the West End, Hugh Dilcha was standing in a dark and secluded alley. Even without raising his head, he could see the layers of gorgeous palaces in the distance and the towering towers.
Gothic bell tower.
It was the highest-lying area in the entire Backlund, and it was also where the Loen royal family was located. But compared to these, what impressed Xio the most was the mansion that once belonged to her father and had allowed her to live in for more than ten years.
"This mission was completed very well."
Just as Miss Xio was recalling the years when she had nothing to wear but food to eat, a man with a golden mask that exposed the lower half of his face walked out of the shadows. Xio almost subconsciously made a defensive gesture, but as she watched
After the arrival, I slightly let down my guard——
"You're late."
The masked man took out a silver pocket watch from his arms, took a look at it, and then nodded solemnly:
"Indeed, it was one minute and twenty-five seconds late. This was my mistake."
"..." Xio didn't expect to get such an answer, and was slightly stunned for a moment. However, the masked man did not continue the topic, but directly took out a piece of white paper folded twice and handed it over -
"This is the reward for this mission."
"..." Xio took the paper with the interrogator's complete potion formula written on it, read it twice before carefully putting it into the pocket on the inside of his vest, and then asked:
"What's the new mission this time?"
"You are very smart." The exposed corners of the masked man's mouth slightly raised, but Xio responded in a very mature tone:
"It's not hard to guess."
"Okay, we found that the Enthusiasm Organization has been expanding recently, and I need your help to confirm their goals."
When talking about the content of the mission, the masked man's tone began to become serious, but a bit of surprise appeared on Xio's face——
"I don't understand. With your power, it should be very easy to suppress a gang like Zhenzhuan. Why do you have to take such a roundabout way?"
"..." The masked man was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about whether it was necessary to reveal something. After a while, he lowered his voice slightly and said in a still serious tone:
"The existence of enthusiasm is generally beneficial to the kingdom, but we must ensure that it is always beneficial. Do you understand?"
Xio didn't know anything about politics. After a little thought, she understood. She nodded slightly and responded:
"I understand, but I'm just an ordinary security guard. I can only tell you the news as best I can."
The masked man didn't respond to Xio's answer. He just turned around without saying a word and disappeared into the dark alley again.
Xio shook his head slightly, turned around and walked towards a restaurant on the roadside, preparing to buy Forsi the Dixie pie and sweet ice tea she wanted.
"I don't know if the special channel Forsi mentioned has successfully contacted Mr. Snow..." Although Xio never asked, she knew to some extent that Forsi's special channel was probably related to the man called "The Fool"
There was something related to the great existence. Although Forsi repeatedly assured her that that existence was harmless, she was still a little uneasy.
But at least it was true that Forsi was no longer affected by the full moon's ravings.
Just as Xio was thinking wildly and taking out a two-sulu note to pay the bill, layers of gray fog suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. Then, a strange feeling came over her body. At this moment, Xio seemed to feel
She saw a pair of high eyes looking down at her from the sky. Immediately, she felt that she was wrapped in a special power. At that moment, she even felt that she was the king who controlled the world, with all the rules and order under her control.
In your own hands.
But this illusion only passed away in a flash. Before she could feel the sudden sense of power more deeply, she heard a gentle and a little old voice saying:
"Your change..."
"Ah, oh!" He suddenly reacted and immediately took a few coins and the packaged Dixie pie and sweet ice tea, with a shyness as if he accidentally called the teacher his mother during class. He rushed out of the restaurant, which made the cashier suspect whether the little girl had used counterfeit money.
…
"Just now, what was that?" After running for a while, Xiu finally returned to China, recalling the inexplicable feeling just now, and then, a frightening thought suddenly arose in her mind -
"That one just now was a warning?"
"That's right! It's a warning! How stupid I am! I have recited the name of the one who has the complete existence! I actually slandered the other person in my heart!"
Xio once again felt that he was so stupid that he was about to cry, and now, Mr. Snow, who knew what to do, was not here!
"By the way, Forsi, I have to ask Forsi if there is any way to please that existence!"
…
"Is her reaction a bit too big?" Above the gray fog, Klein held the Black Emperor card in one hand and the Poseidon scepter in the other. He looked at the end of the crimson stars with a dull look on his face and was running wildly. Hugh.
Because he was worried that he would scare the other party, after the experiment was successful, he immediately used the person of the Poseidon Scepter to erase the influence of the Black Emperor Card. Most people suddenly felt that they were omnipotent. This should only be regarded as an illusion or an attack of chuunibyou. Bar?
"It's all Mr. Devil's fault for rushing the time so fast. If it's tomorrow, I can pretend to be dreaming at night! Well, now is not the time to think about this. Should I think about it? When Miss Magician asked later How should I respond?" Mr. Fool threw the Poseidon Scepter back into the garbage pile, frowning and lost in thought.
…
Beihai, Nameless Island, Netip Town.
Snow was slowly melting five Loen gold pounds into a golden molten liquid with a dull red light, and slowly removing the impurities from it.
Yin Lian, who was standing aside to help control the heat, gently wiped the sweat from her forehead and asked with some confusion:
"Master, there are gold bars and gold nuggets in Netip Town, right? Why do you have to work hard to purify gold pounds? And you are not going to pretend?"
"Pious! Do you understand Pious! I am building a sacred object now! The sacred object must have symbolic meaning!" Snow rolled his eyes at Yin Lian, indicating to her to control the heat, and then used the witch's ice control ability to control the melting The state of high-purity gold slowly cools.
He did not use molds, but used the ability of a "mechanical expert" to polish the high-precision parts to carve the gold bit by bit. Under the infusion of spirituality, this piece cost five gold pounds. The gold coins made from the gold extracted from the gold are slowly taking shape. The exquisite beveled teeth are slowly taking shape. The emblem composed of the childless eye and the twisted line is meticulously carved.
On the back of the coin, after thinking for a long time, Snow carved a demon holding a chain.
Accompanied by a sweet sound of gold rubbing against the air, Snow stretched out his hand to catch the gold coin that still retained some residual warmth, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
"Is it over?" Yin Lian breathed a sigh of relief. Melting gold coins didn't require too high a temperature, but Snow's serious look made her full of pressure.
However, just when she thought she could finally rest, she heard a reply like a devil's whisper:
"How is it possible? It took a lot of effort to fire it off, but I have to do it anyway!"

ps: There was a mistake in the last chapter. It was written that the believer subconsciously hit Daniz. It was only later that he realized that the person who contacted him at this time should be Xio, but this has been changed.
