Lu Li approached Kiruait. She had her back turned to him. Margaret's bed had already been half-made by her, books were piled up, and alchemy materials and crucibles were piled into small piles.
"You can let Fudot use a new bed." Lu Li said calmly.
Lu Li's voice made Kiruait tremble slightly. He raised his hand to wipe his cheek before turning around and forced a smile: "No need... sinking into grief will only make us stop moving forward... We want a new beginning."
…
Margaret's bed was ultimately not saved.
After packing up Margaret's belongings, Kiruait returned to sit in front of the fireplace, holding an old diary.
Naxi raised his eyebrows at Jaeger as a hint, and they wisely left the lounge.
"Margaret is my best friend, and has always been." The shadow danced under the fireplace flame, and a whisper sounded under Kiruait's changing cheeks: "We support each other like sisters... She is a sister...
It’s surprising that I’m a woman, right?”
No. At least Yeager and Naxi knew Kiruait's true gender and told Lu Li.
"She was the one who suggested I do it."
Margaret's eyes reflected the fire.
"She is a genius in alchemy, and I am just an ordinary student without talent... She taught me how to use power."
"I have learned to protect. I want to protect her, my family, my team members, and the only remaining light..."
"I trust her too much... I shouldn't trust her so much. If I had gone to the dungeon with her, even if I had just waited outside the gap, the outcome might not have been so bad..."
Kiruait's voice gradually weakened and turned into a murmur in sleep. Margaret's diary slipped from her palm and fell on the blanket, unfolding like a feather.
She just fell asleep tiredly.
Lu Li approached the sleeping Kiruait and picked up the fallen notes.
[...wormwood juice, three drops of blood wheat solution, increase the pass rate by 5%]
[The dungeon has things the team needs, and Kiruait also needs it, so they have to find a way to sneak in]
[Sequence 39’s Calming Forest, this is the only chance. The cost is high, but the harvest will not be less than the potion itself...]
Closing the note, Lu Li placed it on Kiruait's lap.
Dozens of minutes later, Yeager and Naxi came back. They looked at Kiruait who was wrapped in a blanket on the sofa, and quietly came to the round table.
"Lu Li, we brought you dinner."
Those who put food lightly on the table.
"Are there any restrictions on the sequence of potions in the Secret Cult Showdown?" Lu Li said.
"There is no limit. The Esoteric Duel can be understood as a competition between the two churches. Serial potions and homologues are also included." Naxi said. They were also thinking about the duel three days later and talked about it for a long time after going out. "But I'm sorry.
Let me be honest, the church behind Keengard will definitely provide more advanced and powerful homologues and serial potions, and maybe make him the God's Choice, because you... Lu Li's joining makes the mystery showdown not so simple..."
The Church of the Spider God can also use the high-level potions that Lu Li can use. But what they can use may not be what Lu Li can use.
"The Church of the Holy Son can help." Naxi suggested.
"My suggestion is not to do this... The Church of the Holy Son has been trying to contact Lu Li through the captain. The captain is avoiding them. If they ask for help at this time, they will definitely open their mouths and even let Lu Li join the church."
"So we don't have an advantage at this point?" Naxi muttered with a frown.
"No..." Yeager pinned his hope on Lu Li: "If Lu Li can get the top 10... no, the top 20 combat sequence potions are enough to ensure that the captain does not lose or even wins."
"That's too expensive."
Kiruaite's voice suddenly sounded.
She was a light sleeper and woke up when the sound of voices sounded around the round table.
"As long as shillings and weird currency can buy things, they are not valuable." Lu Li replied.
Naxi suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "The first 30 serial medicines can no longer be purchased at a high enough price..."
"The Linsi family behind Fuduot should be able to help us," Lu Li said.
The weight of a bloodline family may be enough.
The next day, the Holy Light Team temporarily put aside their busy work surrounding Kiruait and went to the mixed zone to meet Fodort.
She only carried a small suitcase that could not hold much. On the way, she complained to Lu Li that Jushu Academy did not allow her servants to help carry the luggage. The gatekeeper also refused to help, so she had to give it to her classmates.
Fudot, who is not yet sixteen years old, is not surprisingly the youngest member of the Holy Light Team regardless of height or age.
Returning to the lounge, Fodor frowned at the bed that was only isolated by curtains.
"Aren't there any single dormitories?"
"There is only a team lounge in the middle grade. I thought you knew." Lu Li replied
Of course Fudot knows. She just needs to maintain her noble status.
Brought to the bed that used to be Margaret, Fodort looked at the adjacent beds in disgust: "Who is there? Why are they so close..."
"Mine." Lu Li said.
Fudot suddenly stopped saying anything, as if she had calmed down all her emotions. It wasn't until she put down her luggage and returned to the round table that she regained her pride: "Even the tree canopy is abuzz about the secret cult showdown."
"Can your family help?" Lu Li asked directly.
The heritage of a bloodline family is not lower than that of some churches.
"You don't need my family's help... In fact, the power of your identity is stronger than you think." Fuduot said complicatedly: "As long as the news is released that Lu Li needs sequence medicine, the forces who want to give it to you for free will line up.
Of the team.”
Just like Fuduo said, no force wants to have Lu Li's favor.
In just one day, Lu Li, who had announced that he needed serial potions, received three doses of the top 30 potions in the sequence. The most precious one was that the potions in the 19th sequence were all free.
If the secret sect showdown hadn't started tomorrow, Lu Li would have received more and more expensive medicines.
Maybe it includes the legendary top 10 sequences.
…
On the day of the Esoteric Cult showdown, the entire middle class gathered in the arena, including the professors.
Lu Li looked around at the silhouettes in the audience, and Professor Gray among the professors nodded vaguely to him.
Trivial whispers gathered together and filled the air above the arena. Until the parties involved in the secret cult showdown, Kiruait and Keengard, appeared in the center of the arena.
"As a captain, you should remain rational and self-aware." As the arena gradually became quieter, Kiengard taunted. "It's a pity that I don't see this advantage in you."
"As the captain, I need to protect my team members." Kiruit on the opposite side is resolute and tough. "This is something that the cold and selfish Viper Squad cannot understand, right?"
"Ask the team members to present the potion No. 19. Is this your protection?"
Lu Li's acquisition obviously couldn't be hidden from Kiengard and the forces behind him.
Kiruait pursed his lips, stopped arguing, and quietly waited for the bell to come.
