Chapter 4 Under the Surface

You can say that?

As a disciple of the "Crown Level" strongman Mason Walker, Oblak felt a little humiliated when he heard Lou Cheng's answer. But when he looked up, he saw that the other party was not arrogant or showing off, just plain and ordinary.

He was describing it carefully, as if he was talking about what was on the menu tonight.

This is not boasting, not bragging, it is fact!

Oblak took a deep breath and told himself that blacksmiths are good at making iron and tailors are good at making clothes. Everyone has unique strengths. The king is not better than the poor in any way.

After quietly listening to Lou Cheng's answer, "Grand Mentor" Sisko smiled slightly and said:

"I see."

After saying that, he nodded, turned around and left the door, walking neither fast nor slow.

Oblak was responsible for the aftermath and said to Lou Cheng with a solemn expression: "This ends the inquiry. Thank you for your cooperation. We will visit again if necessary."

Since the "Grand Master" didn't say anything, it means that Lou Cheng didn't lie.

"Okay." Lou Cheng nodded relaxedly.

Oblak looked at him deeply, said nothing, turned around, and chased after Sisko.

He originally wanted to take the opportunity to raise challenges and other matters, but firstly, because the Holy Grail was robbed, the situation was serious. As a member of the Knights, he cannot only think about personal matters and ignore the overall situation. Secondly, he suddenly felt a little uncertain in his heart, and seemed to have lost his mind.

He was sure, so the words came to his lips but were never spoken.

Although Lou has not reached the "Crown Level" and is still on the same level as me, he is vaguely a level higher and has a sense of transcendence... Oblak got into the car with a sullen face.

After watching them leave, Lou Cheng closed the door and walked back to the living room.

Yan Zheke stood up and came closer, smiling and imitating Lou Cheng's tone: "You can say... Chengzi, you are really awesome~"

"I always feel like you are mocking me..." Lou Cheng looked at Ke Xiaoke funnyly, "The guy just now was Oblak who had been to Gaofen before. The look in his eyes made me very unconvinced and wanted to

If he wants to fight me again, I have to pretend to scare him away, otherwise, I have only recovered 70% to 80% of my strength, so I may not be his opponent."

"Skill: Bluff!" Yan Zheke turned his eyes upward and asked, "Do you still remember who he is?"

"Of course, those were the days when we traveled randomly, and we will never forget them in our lives!" Lou Cheng chuckled.

As soon as I saw the Brutal delegation, I remembered that there was such a person, and I was chased down the street by him in the morning.

Yan Zheke pursed his lips and turned his head, with a smile in his eyes, and pretended to be normal and said: "I still remember it, too."

At this time, Aunt Du returned to her room and left this place to the young couple.

Yan Zheke looked around and suddenly heard a growling sound from his stomach. He raised his eyebrows, looked at Lou Cheng, and said aggrievedly: "Chengzi, I'm hungry..."

The implication is self-evident.

"Let me go check out what's in the refrigerator and freezer." Lou Cheng lowered his head and smiled, walking to the kitchen, thinking as he walked, "I still have the dumplings I made yesterday, and a lot of noodles. How about making some dumpling noodles?"

"Okay!" Yan Zheke pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, and followed Lou Cheng into the kitchen.

"What are you doing here?" Lou Cheng took off his apron and put it on himself.

"You make supper for your wife, I will also make supper for my dear~!" Yan Zheke chuckled, "You are a super greedy person, you want to steal my food every time! Uh, I

I think my egg-fried rice skills are as good as yours, how about a bowl of egg-fried rice?"

"A big bowl!" Lou Cheng replied with a deep smile in his eyes.

In this way, the young couple were busy with each other, exchanging a few words and gossiping from time to time.

"Chengzi Chengzi, are you going back to Songcheng soon?" Yan Zheke asked while beating the eggs manually.

"Yes, I have to go back and get the certificate. I even ran away from the defense. I can't run away from this anymore. Besides, there is another thing that needs to be finished, you know." Lou Cheng looked at the pot of boiling water and helped it add water.

Got a fire.

"Then I'll go too and meet Zuitong and the others..." the girl said happily.

At this moment, she paused for a few seconds, bit her lower lip, and said with some melancholy, "Starting next semester, I will have to officially study with the instructor, and it will be quite busy... You also have to re-enter the professional competition circle.

He will still be busy... How about we take a trip this summer to find love locks, see the pyramids, and go to the prairie for a wave?"

Although he was a little confused by his wife's explosive topic, Lou Cheng quickly came to his senses, poured the dumplings on the plate into the pot and said, "Okay, let's make a strategy later."

"Hmm, let's go to Songcheng first, then return to Xiushan, and stay at home until we set off in August, so as not to make my dad full of resentment..." Yan Zheke thought about the plan while frying eggs, and at the end, he said with jumping thoughts again,

"Orange, I've fallen in love with an animal recently!"

"What animal?"

"Brother Flathead!"

"Ah? What is this?"

"Honey badger, flat head with white hair and silver cape! Its motto is whether it is fighting or on the way to a fight. Uh, also, don't tell me who the enemy is. How many are there? Tell me the time and place."

"It's quite interesting."

"Yeah, there's more..."



"Hey, Ke Ke, it's time to cook your egg fried rice. I can smell the burnt smell..."

"oops……"

After a while, the voice sounded again in the restaurant:

"Chengzi Chengzi, who are you chatting with on WeChat?"

"And Smith."

"Spider, what did he say?"

"He asked me why my alert level suddenly moved back to 'danger level' and he wanted to monitor me around the clock again."

"You were laughing just now. What did you answer?"

"I said it was because I boasted in front of the Great Master."

"Pfft, how did he react?"

"He said MMP..."

"Haha, who did he learn Chinese from?"

…………

In the collection room of a luxurious villa, a deep voice said in an excited and intoxicated tone:

"Among the billions of people in the world, I am the only one who has evolved this ability, the ability to obtain corresponding traits by absorbing the blood of others, the ability of a god!"

This is a thin man wearing a black tuxedo and a dark red cloak. He has deep features and red eyes. He is shaking a simple silver monopod in his hand, which seems to be full of blood but empty.

.

"Yes, this is so special that they have never thought that the 'eyes' cut out on the foreheads of those people you killed were not because of cult rituals, but just for disguise. Your real purpose was blood.

It's their characteristic, isn't it, 'nightmare'?" Opposite the man in the dark red cloak, there was a brown-eyed man drinking champagne. He was about thirty or forty years old, dressed meticulously, and the handkerchiefs in his breast pocket were folded into flowers.

.

"Yes, thank you for your help, God Killer." The man in the dark red cloak laughed loudly, "When I extract the blood of the 'Savior', absorb and digest it, I can truly enter the 'Terror Level'

'!In the future, I will replace the old guy from the Samano royal family and become the emperor of the vampire clan!"

Having said this, he looked to the other side, where stood a bearded man with dark skin and facial features that were characteristic of the Dead Sea region.

The man in the dark red cloak pressed his right hand to his chest, bowed gracefully and said, "Thank you, thank you Pharaoh for asking you to help me, thank you for allowing me to temporarily show 'terrifying level' strength, which confused many people."

"Pharaoh is very optimistic about you." The bearded man said with a serious expression, "In two months, he will have a big move and he will need your help."

"No problem, if I absorb it smoothly." The man in the dark red cloak smiled slightly and watched the bearded man walk to the ancient coffin in the corner. He took off his clothes, tied up the straps, lay in it, lost his breath, and turned into

A veritable ancient mummy.

"Look, there are no attackers here, only the mummy collection purchased by the collector Mr. Constantine." The man in the dark red cloak smiled complacently, and said to the man with brown eyes, half puzzled and half probing, "Godkiller, why are you doing this?

Do you agree to cooperate?"

The God Killer touched his nose with his index finger and said, "Maybe, maybe, it would be more interesting to have more 'terrifying' villains in this world."

At this moment, a knock on the door came from the surveillance system.

The man in the dark red cloak took one look and said, "It's Lucas."

After saying that, he opened the door of the collection room and returned to the living room, letting Lucas, a black-robed and green-eyed spiritual practitioner, enter.

"What did the Grand Master ask you to do?" the man in the dark red cloak asked.

Lucas glanced at the other party flatly and said: "Constantine, the Grand Master asked me to tell you that in two days, and at most two more days, there will be more than ten 'terror level' strong men, several of them equipped with artificial weapons and

Special forces with various high-tech equipment and more agents who are good at tracking will arrive in Cannes, and the special nature of the Holy Grail cannot be concealed for long."

"You must complete the absorption before this deadline and try not to damage the Holy Grail too seriously. At that time, as long as it is hidden and returned, the vigilance will be lowered. If this situation continues, no one can bear it."

"Don't think that it's okay not to take the highway. There are eyes watching the sky. The less people there are, the more conspicuous they are."

Constantine, the man in the dark red cloak, was silent for a moment, raised the Holy Grail and said with a smile:

"OK."

…………

A few days later, Lou Cheng keenly learned from the news that the level of martial law in Kangcheng had been lowered, so he sent Smith a message in confusion:

"Has the Holy Grail been recovered? Those three 'terror-level' attackers have been captured?"

After a while, Smith replied: "The Holy Grail is said to have been found. It is in a trash can and is a bit damaged... The attacker has only been identified, but he has not yet found out who he is. Among them are the 'God Killer' and the 'Nightmare'. In short

, this matter is almost over."

It’s over? It’s over? Lou Cheng was quite surprised.

How could such a serious matter be treated lightly and become calm?

Or is there something brewing beneath the surface?

Before he could ask again, Smith sent a message: "Lou, I want to ask you something."

"Say." Lou Cheng replied generously.

Smith was confused and said: "I have been practicing according to the tutorials on superpower awakening and improvement, but there has been no progress for more than a year. The distance from the 'dangerous level' seems to be getting farther and farther. Lou, do you have any good suggestions? I have recently

I find you more and more mysterious and difficult to guess."

"Uh, how many strange spiders will bite you?" Lou Cheng joked.

"That's not humorous at all..." Smith replied.

Lou Cheng thought for a moment and said: "Actually, there is a certain connection between the improvement of superpowers and the strengthening of 'self'. The better you control your body, the easier it is to go deeper. I suggest you awaken the 'spirit of self'."

"I'm from the religious order!" Smith emphasized helplessly.

Why does Lou feel so unreliable...

"Haha, you can refer to the ascetic monks who are one of the branches of the sect." Lou Cheng stopped teasing.

After putting down his phone, he looked out the window and thought leisurely:

The matter of the Holy Grail is over. Next, Keke will have her final exams, and then return to Songcheng to meet up with her master to find the secret mansion of Master Longhu at the bottom of Weishui Lake!

PS: Damn, there was a draw at the starting point backstage, I could have gone in advance! Please give me a monthly ticket!
