Chapter 138: Aftermath Ripples Part 3

Chapter 138 Ripples (3 updates)

No, could it be that Mark, that bastard, really went to save his old friend just now?

Looking at the three women who were obviously old acquaintances with Mark, Vivian felt a strangely sour breath coming to her mouth.

acid!

So sour!

The only small bit of luck was that Mark obviously didn't expect this move, and his stiff expression betrayed his heart.

"Wait a minute, what's going on?"

"Can we go and talk in detail?" The three women all looked sad.

As a last resort, Mark asked for a small room and took the three girls in.

Vivian's curiosity almost exploded, but she was too embarrassed to follow and eavesdrop.

Instead, Abner saw through everything and whispered in Vivian's ear: "They are all poor girls!"

"Well."

Abner explained it briefly, and Vivian understood it immediately.

Children of nobles who have been exposed to evil spirits or [abnormalities] have escaped, but what awaits them is not a bright future.

According to the standard procedure: first they must undergo strict scanning by the [Eye of Light], and then undergo careful interrogation by senior priests to confirm whether their spirits have been contaminated. Finally, there will be a long review period, and they will be locked up in the Church of Light or

They will be released after at least one month in the monastery and it is determined that there is basically no threat.

In fact, by doing this, it is not possible to confirm that they have returned to normal.

According to past practice, survivors who have suffered [abnormal] events often hide serious self-mutilation or even suicidal tendencies, and may even degenerate into cultists over time.

They came out alive, maybe they really just saved their lives. The question is, in this case, which noble family would dare to have such children? Their road to marriage is basically blocked.

Nobility is so realistic.

Whether it’s for other people’s family or your own family.

This is why nobles often have a bunch of children, even if they cheat one or two, they still have a bunch of spare direct bloodline heirs.

For the truly great nobles, it is another rule of the game. For example, the newly rescued Count and Countess Glock, as long as they are willing to pay a sufficient price, they can hire a priest of light to act as their personal priest and follow them for a long time. This is equivalent to letting

The Church of Light endorses itself with the credibility of the gods.

For the children of minor nobles...

Mark looked at the three girls with tearful eyes and was speechless.

"We are just the daughters of a baron. It is impossible for your father to have the financial resources to find Pastor Guangming as a guarantee for us."

"Mark, if you don't save us, we will be doomed."

"When I was most desperate, I was still thinking of you. I prayed to the gods, and you were the only one who answered my prayer."

"Our family is loyal to Count Glock, and he cannot protect himself."

Being 'besieged' by all the talk, Mark was so embarrassed: "I'm fine, what do you want the maid to do? Can you do the job?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, the three women's eyes lit up.

"Of course we can work."

"In order to cultivate the relationship between the children of vassals and the direct children of the lord, we were sent to the lord's house as maids and learned etiquette when we were young."

"This is the strongest bond!"

"We don't want anything, just take care of the food."

mark:"……"

Alas! The time-travelers from China are really not familiar with the ways of the Wright nobles.

Not to mention, think about it, there was a time when the previous owner of this body almost became the love interest of one of these three girls. After a while, the situation changed and he became the owner.

If it were another girl, Mark wouldn't feel anything at all, but these three girls are really sexy!

At this moment, the last straw came that broke Mark's integrity.

"Knock knock!"

"Come in." Mark was a little confused. Logically speaking, Conrad would not let anyone in casually.

Oh, it's Helena, that's okay.

As soon as Helena came in, she saw the three women who almost knelt down to beg Mark. The surprise on her face flashed, and then she straightened her chest and abdomen, and said demurely: "Mark, your investment is successful. I have found a

As a stock manager, he will sell the newly acquired stocks at a higher price, and conservatively estimate, he can earn 20 times!"

When Mark heard this, he was shocked. He asked Helena to put up all the money.

After a huge gamble, he became a multi-millionaire.

If he hadn't known that the Millennium War was coming, he would have given up making progress and lived a decadent life of dissipation and wealth.

But on the surface, he can't be so reckless.

The great news in the ears of the three women fell on Mark's face, and it turned into an understatement of "oh".

The calmness of the wind shocked them.

Mark calmly glanced at these three beautiful faces full of youthful vitality and smiled: "Don't be so pessimistic. If you are worried about external evaluation, I can ask the Destiny family to provide you with a health certificate. As for being a maid for me

Whatever, if you are really desperate, come to me again."

"Mark, I..." Anweina and the others were stunned.

To be honest, Mark almost felt happy in his face. But he held it back.

Accepting as maids a few noble ladies who once wanted him to be lovelies would be psychologically satisfying, but in fact it would not help Mark's career. Instead, he would be attracted to these useless little nobles in the future.

If given a choice, he would rather not be involved in this cause and effect.

"I still have something important to do, so you should go back and reunite with your family first. We'll talk about other things later." Mark just left, leaving only a handsome figure behind.

Mark was indeed in trouble. As soon as he went out, he was blocked by Storm Warrior Ren.

"Well done, little...cough! Since you killed that damn Famine Knight, I will keep my promise and serve you as my master. Give me three days and I will explain the affairs of the Church of Storms, and I will come find you.

you."

The giant man in front of him was only a little shorter than Conrad.

Mark could completely imagine that when he went out in the future, two iron towers would be standing beside him, which would at least give him a sense of security.

Mark: "Okay, I'll wait for you! I'm mostly at the Night Church these days."

This major event that shocked the entire Wright Empire was like a storm raging on the sea, but it returned to calm after the storm.

From the perspective of others, this is the end.

Only those who truly understand the direction of destiny will know that this is just a short respite that the world gives mankind before the next crisis comes.

Mark doesn't care about so much, he seizes every opportunity to improve his strength and expand his team.

There is no doubt that he is the biggest beneficiary of this incident.

In addition to rescuing a group of nobles, he also successfully rescued Mongoni, the high priest of the Adventist Church, and Frankis, the priest of the Church of Literature, and gained the friendship of the two major churches.

But as soon as he completed the rescue mission, he hurriedly mounted the Eagle of Light and rushed to the Great Temple of the Night to ask for the [Whip of the Night].

Knight was originally in a meeting with his subordinates. When he heard Mark asking for an audience, he announced an unprecedented adjournment of the meeting and met with Mark. His subordinates looked at each other in shock.

In front of the altar again, shrouded in the breath of night, Knight looked at Mark with his hands behind his back, an expression on his face that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

"What important matter do you want to see me for this time?"

"Dear Sir, during the Lamington cruise incident that just concluded, I accidentally got these things." Mark respectfully handed over the two blood moon cards.

The first one is Judge Charles, and the other one is of course Bishop John Brown.

"Oh?" Before Knight could speak, a majestic aura descended on the goddess statue behind him.

This familiar sacredness made Nate and Mark quickly salute.

"Meet the Lady of the Night."

Why did this person suddenly jump out?

Just when the two of them were feeling anxious, they didn't expect that the person speaking was not the Lady of the Night, but the Goddess of Light.

"Huh! It's not your fault. If I'm to blame, it's that idiot Brown!" the goddess of light complained a little angrily, and then disappeared.

What sounded immediately was the voice of the goddess of the night.

"Haha! Mark, it's you again! I'm becoming more and more interested in you."

"Well, thank you to Lady Night for looking up to me..." Mark didn't continue, but she understood.

"Although you are not my dependent, I can't help but reward you for taking the purification team to do things for me. So let's do it." The misty voice echoed in the great church, and it seemed that all the voices gathered above Mark's head, and finally

Condensed into a flowing cloak.

The invisible power of night supported the cloak, allowing it to float into Mark's hand at an anti-gravity descent speed.

As soon as he got it, the destiny dice marked him with the cloak's special effects.

[Night cloak special effect (shadow walking): The wearer can use it to shuttle between two shadows shrouded in darkness within the visual range. 】

As for the cloak slightly increasing the wearer's agility, that's basic.

If you have to do the math, this extraordinary object given by the Lady of the Night can also be called an artifact.

Lady Night gave the gift and ran away.

The speed was so fast that Mark had a strange look on his face.

"It's okay, this is the character of Lady Night." Knight comforted Mark.

"But, about the card..."

Mark didn't expect that Knight would actually take out a similar [Blood Moon Card] from his storage bag.

"ah!"

Knight smiled mysteriously: "Every extraordinary person who returns from the blood moon baptism will be given the ability to conquer the enemy and enslave his soul. If you have time, I don't mind playing cards with you."

"Uh, okay."

Is it really possible for a hard-working Sequence 7 Doctor Who like me to participate in the boss's card game?

Mark didn't know that at this moment in the Great Church of Light, because of an oracle from the goddess, the situation in the Church of Light had changed dramatically.

"That idiot Brown, if you don't know how to lead an army, don't mess around!"

The will of the goddess is absolute. With just one word from her, the Brown family lost power on the spot, which was equivalent to being thrown into the cold palace.

This is the sorrow of powerful ministers.

When power is no longer given by the superiors, the powerful minister is a dead dog that can be thrown away at any time.

When Lao De saw his nemesis throwing himself into the street like this, he laughed so hard that his mouth was crooked.

As soon as Mark came out of Knight's, Bishop Albert came.

"Mark, would you be interested in taking over the Lamington?"

mark:???
