Powell reminded: "You have to do this in secret. It is best not to let anyone other than the Radiant Mission know about it."
Jeffrey was a little confused: "Why?"
Powell held out two fingers and said: "First, we cannot let Chris know that we are investigating him. This will appear to be disrespectful to him. Second, judging from the intelligence provided by Chris, our glory alone
The mission can kill that group of black magicians. This is a good opportunity for us to earn merit, and we cannot let others take the lead."
Jeffrey smiled knowingly: "I understand, Mr. Deputy Leader."
"Okay, go and do your work."
"Hey!" Jeffrey agreed, turned around and walked out.
Watching him go away, Powell rubbed his temples with the middle fingers of both hands: "This little guy named Chris really brings me huge opportunities and challenges."
······
After leaving the deputy leader's office, Chris wandered aimlessly inside the Holy Knights.
He knew that this matter was of great importance, and it was impossible to completely convince the other party with his own words.
Therefore, Powell needs to be given time to investigate, including his own identity information, etc.
As long as Powell knows that he has fought against the Black Magician Association, he will not be questioned. The dispatch of troops to Crescent Island is a sure thing, but he doesn't know how long it will take.
Nowadays, Chris is considered a celebrity among the Holy Knights, and he will be stared at by others from time to time when walking on the road.
Fortunately, when those knights pay attention to him, they will provide a small amount of reputation points.
Chris doesn't mind being looked at twice, since he won't be missing a piece of meat anyway.
At this time, he heard the chatter of people around him and his attention was drawn to it.
"Hey, have you heard that Emperor Guangming married another princess a few days ago?"
"How new, isn't this a common thing?"
"It's different this time." The knight who spoke first said mysteriously, "The new princess's appearance, figure, temperament and other aspects are all rare and top-notch in the world. Even the Emperor of Light, who has had countless women, is still seeing her.
She was fascinated by her at first sight and even lost interest in other women."
"Is it so exaggerated? What you said makes me want to see what the new princess looks like."
"Forget it, you can't even enter the inner city, let alone the innermost palace."
"Too."
Hearing the word "princess", Chris couldn't help but think of Shirley, and he didn't know where she was now or how she was doing.
Compared with the newly married princess of Emperor Guangming, who among them will be better?
Chris shook his head, getting rid of this evil thought, and decided to go to Sun Moon City for a stroll.
I don’t know how many days I have to wait for the results, so I just have to have fun.
Chris walked out of the gate of the Holy Knights and walked leisurely on the spacious street.
Various shops, street vendors, and a dazzling array of products are dazzling.
When he sees something he likes, Chris will stop and buy it, keeping it as a gift for his wife and children when he returns home.
Before I knew it, the whole morning had passed.
Chris rubbed his hungry belly and prepared to find a place to eat.
At this moment, his head was suddenly hit by something.
Chris looked down and found that it was an apple with half of it rotten.
By coincidence, it was the rotten side that hit me.
Chris reached out and touched his head, there were still stains on his hair.
Since that thing is not dangerous, it will not be perceived instinctively.
Chris frowned and looked up in the direction where the rotten apple was thrown.
I saw the noble young man I met last night standing seven or eight meters away, with a playful smile on his lips.
Obviously, this is clearly aimed at Chris. Now that he is alone without the Holy Knight, it is a good time for the other party to bully him.
But is Chris really that pushy?
the answer is negative.
Chris' figure disappeared from the spot and turned into a red afterimage, attacking Bennett.
Bennett didn't expect that stupid young man would dare to attack him. He was at the eighth level, and that kid was only at the seventh level.
He casually crossed his right arm and poured fighting energy into it to block, completely ignoring Chris. The one-level gap was not so easy to overcome.
Chris came to Bennett in just the blink of an eye, pressed his arm down in a arrogant manner, and then slapped him.
Everything happened in a flash of lightning. Bennett was staggered and his head was a little dazed. Bloodshot eyes overflowed from the corners of his mouth, leaving red fingerprints on his face.
The slap was so loud that it attracted the attention of people around him.
Those who recognized Bennett's identity opened their mouths in surprise.
"Oh my God, that kid actually slapped Master Bennett. This stupid young man came out of nowhere. How come you haven't seen him before?"
"Tsk, tsk, this ignorant boy is going to be in big trouble."
Bennett's hair was disheveled and he was about to go crazy: "Ahhh, how dare you hit me!!"
He grew up with a golden key in his mouth. When did he receive such an insult?
What's more, in front of so many people, he lost face.
Bennett angrily poured fighting energy into his fists, and then punched forward.
Chris also swung his right fist fearlessly and collided with it.
"boom!"
The fists of the two collided violently, creating a powerful impact that caused circles of fine cracks to appear on the bluestone floor under their feet.
Both sides took five or six steps back, and this time the fists were evenly matched.
"Boy, if you have the ability, follow me outside the city." Bennett still had a trace of reason left.
According to the regulations of Sun Moon City, except for certain special occasions, anyone who fights in the city will be severely punished, regardless of his status and background.
This law was enacted by the current Emperor Guangming, and everyone must abide by it.
After all, there are many powerful people in the city, and there are countless people above level seven.
Even a battle between two seventh-level men would be enough to cause considerable casualties.
"No." Chris refused bluntly and looked at Bennett as if he were a fool.
This is the opponent's territory. If there is an ambush outside the city, wouldn't he be in bad luck?
If someone like me, a foreign aristocrat, is killed for no apparent reason, who will take care of it?
Bennett was so angry that he yelled: "You are a coward, a man without a seed!"
At this time, Chris suddenly noticed the necklace worn around the other person's neck, which seemed to be the Holy Light Necklace that he had taken a fancy to last night.
Could it be that those two magic props were bought by the guy in front of me?
