Citizens outside the City Hall Square gradually dispersed as guards evacuated.
Matthäus didn't want citizens to freeze to death on the cold streets after everything was solved perfectly.
It is foreseeable that the experience in the dream will become a topic of conversation among citizens for a long time to come.
Knock knock knock.
"Enter"
The wooden door of the office was pushed open when he opened his mouth, and his assistant Valendo appeared behind the door: "Mr. Lu Li is here."
After a while, Lu Li approached the mayor's office and told him that they were ready to leave.
"Are you leaving so soon?"
The City Hall is receiving the legacy of the Trial House, and members need to be convened to discuss the distribution arrangements. If Lu Li is here, he can avoid a lot of unnecessary disputes and troubles.
"Um."
Lu Li raised his eyes and looked out the window. In the distance, the God of the Deep Sea stood in front of the port.
The God of the Deep is losing its origins every moment, and staying too long may cause trouble for the ice-free port of Weiner.
"It's incredible...that an ancient god would help us."
Matthäus looked at the bay in the distance and the ice-free harbor of Verna, feeling like a child squatting on the beach building a sandcastle.
"Did we do something wrong?"
He suddenly asked in a low voice.
The God of the Deep made him realize that the gods were not completely abominable. If they could indeed protect the ice-free harbor of Vina...
"You are right, and so is the Judgment Hall."
Lu Li's answer made Mateus look away from the port.
"You all try to save yourself in order to survive, although everyone ignores their own shortcomings and magnifies the shortcomings of others. We should not be too harsh on this."
"I'm glad you can say that." Mayor Mateus put his hand on his chest and responded to Lu Li respectfully.
"Please let me know when Captain Leventia Wilt regains consciousness."
"I can, but it's difficult."
Because of the importance of Captain Levencia Wilt, many doctors are involved in the treatment, but the progress is slow: "The Radical Judgment Office no longer exists. Next, I plan to deepen ties with Midnight City and let them find a way to treat Lev
Captain Lenthia Wilt, at least she can wake up temporarily."
Without the checks and balances of the Tribunal, the future of Vina Freeze Port may no longer be so repellent to strange forces, but it may still have a long way to go like Midnight City.
But before that, Weiner Freeze Port must seize the time to stock up on supplies just in case. Mateus asked Lu Li about the approximate reserves of firewood, and Lu Li called the merchant Anthony and asked him to go to Shadow Swamp to inquire.
But it was obvious that the firewood in the entire Shadow Swamp was not enough to last several days at the ice-free port of Weiner with a population of hundreds of thousands. He had to find a new source of coal and firewood.
This desolate land can help. It is rich in coal resources, but it used to be difficult to deliver due to transportation costs and speed. Now with the help of merchants, it is no longer a problem. It is only limited by the speed at which merchants can take out the goods, making it difficult to supply.
Used by the whole city.
They need more merchants, and Mayor Mateus has already asked people to do this. Searching for human gatherings throughout the Main Continent, it may not take long to find more merchants.
After bidding farewell to Mayor Mateus, Lu Li and the others got into the mayor's car, a steam car, and headed to the port.
Trouble suddenly came to Lu Li at this moment.
The inverted pentagram mark on the back of his hand heated up without warning, and the devil began to track Lu Li again.
Dare it appear?
Lu Li looked at the Deep Sea God in the bay, asked the driver to stop the car, and asked the soldiers to tell Mayor Mateus to evacuate the surrounding citizens. He asked the businessman Anthony to send a message to the Deep Sea God, hiding his aura and body, and waiting for the devil to approach.
Then solve the problem.
Lu Li's narrow steam car, Lu Li sat in front of the window of a roadside coffee shop.
It's not a long wait, the hot mark on the back of my hand means it's getting closer, until it becomes unbearably hot.
On the quiet and cold street, a delicate woman wearing a black ponytail, tuxedo and white gloves walked slowly.
jingle bell jingle bell jingle bell
The door of the coffee shop was pushed open, and the smell of cold and sulfur poured into the shop.
"Dear Ancient One, the descendant of Monliabeth XVI, Lord of Hell, greets you."
She greeted the God of the Deep Sea and looked at Lu Li: "This is my incarnation, so..."
"If you want, I can trace her identity back to hell." He suddenly said.
"The passage has been closed, and you, the powerful and honorable one, cannot descend to hell." The devil's body stiffened briefly, and he replied respectfully, looking at Lu Li: "And you won't do this, because I will help you."
"Devil's...bewitchment," said Ophelia.
"This is an exchange of equal value. I helped you, and I hope you help me." Before the hostility was completely aroused, the devil revealed his purpose: "So I have been looking for you."
"How can you help me? What can I help you?" Lu Li asked calmly, the mark on the back of his hand no longer burning hot.
"I know a way to allow you to master power without any burden, and to protect your stronghold in hell from being discovered. In response, I hope you can fight against my father for me."
"Is this a threat?"
Lu Li knew that the stronghold she mentioned was Hades. This was a misunderstanding, but the explanation was useless to her.
"No, it's just the content of the transaction." She seemed to really think so.
"I can't do it."
Recalling the devil who also liked formal wear, Lu Li shook his head and refused.
"You can do it, just like you destroyed his clone." The devil's daughter exuded hatred for her father. "This is also your chance... The brand shows that he has never let you go, doesn't it?"
"But there's nothing I can do now."
Lu Li did not let the God of the Deep Sea help. The Devil King might not be as good as the Ancient One, but it was a hell filled with magma and scorching heat. The God of the Deep Sea could only find a sea of magma there.
"Not now." The devil's daughter loosened Lu Li's mind and opened and closed her red lips: "I will tell you how to gain power. When you are strong enough, that's when we start planning."
"It does you no harm. You gain allies against your enemies, and you gain strength."
Lu Li looked at him calmly: "Why did you kill your father?"
The Devil's daughter hides her hatred under her calmness: "If you knew how he raised his children, you would want him dead."
Just like what she said, this does no harm to Lu Li. The only possible identity of "Devil's Daughter" is insignificant because of the presence of the God of the Deep Sea.
"Make a contract under the witness of the God of the Deep Sea." Lu Li said.
"As you wish."
The abominable human skin paper was filled with contract clauses, and the blood left by Lu Li and the devil's daughter disappeared into the void.
The contract was reached, and the devil's daughter revealed the answer: "Cursed titles, they are the most natural source of power. Go to the Giant Tree Academy, where you can learn how to use power."
"What does the cursed title mean?" Lu Li asked her.
"I think it may be a gift to those who protect the world, a reward for the brave, and the world's self-save."
