"Is this a place where a father should come? His children are really suffering."
The old man, who was wearing a neat and formal butler's uniform, looked at the colorful store in front of him, listened to the faint music and shouts coming from inside, looked at the men and women in front of him who could only go in and out, and shook his head.
Then, the old man walked towards him, and the doorman who was standing at the door to receive guests saw this old man who had a completely different style from the guests coming and going. He just wanted to reach out his hand to stop him, but the next moment, his expression changed.
.
He saw a very imperceptible badge on the old man's collar, which was one of the four badges known to people living in the Federation, so the doorman got out of the way very wisely.
, and also showed a color to his companion.
"Don't be nervous. I'm here to find a useless guy in our family. It has nothing to do with your store."
When the old man saw this scene, he smiled and patted the smart doorman in front of him. The other doorman who had just received the hint from the doorman's eyes also stopped in his tracks.
After this little episode, the old man also walked into the bar. Just after walking through the door, a burst of deafening music and the hoarse shouts of many men and women reached the old man's ears.
Looking at the colorful lights in front of him and the scene on the dance floor that looked like a group of demons dancing wildly, the old man frowned slightly and began to search for his target in this bar.
Not long after, he found a young man on the dance floor who was hugging a hot girl and twisting his body crazily.
Seeing this scene, the old man frowned even deeper, so he stepped forward and grabbed the young man who was enjoying the carnival. Before he could react, he dragged him off the dance floor.
.
"What the hell..." The young man who found himself being dragged away by force turned around and was about to start yelling and scolding, but when he saw clearly the clothes on the old man's body, his expression suddenly changed.
"The butler of the family?" the young man who was thrown onto the booth by the old man asked cautiously.
"That's right. You're not so drunk that you can't even recognize anyone, so you don't need me to wake you up."
"You old man came to see me, what's the matter?" The young man who came to the bar to hang out asked cautiously, because he couldn't figure out how a good-for-nothing like himself could have a housekeeper come to him.
"You have a child who is not yet one year old. Do you think it's appropriate that you don't stay at home to take care of your child and come to a place like here to fool around?"
"Um...you don't know how annoying this kid is. I couldn't bear the noise, so I came to a place like this to relax." The young man explained with a smile. He also knew that his behavior was indeed unreasonable.
"Okay, the family is currently implementing a policy. Your situation just meets the standards in the policy. You are not qualified to be a father during our family's inspection. I am here to issue a notice to you.
Your child will be taken away and raised by your family, and as a father, you have the right to check and communicate with your child at any time, but you no longer have the right to interfere with the education and training of your child."
"The family will take my child away to raise him? That would be great." Upon hearing the old man's words, the already drunk young man suddenly shouted excitedly.
"Aren't you a little bit reluctant to give up?" Seeing the young man's reaction, the housekeeper who came to inform the young man asked with a frown.
He remembered that when he went to notify those unqualified parents, many of those parents were reluctant to leave, and would even take a long time to do so. This was the first time he had seen such a reaction from a young man.
"Hey, housekeeper, you also saw what I just did. I am a bad person. If my child is brought up by me, he will probably be no better than me in the future. So it would be great if the family can raise him on his behalf.
But."
"You are self-aware." When the housekeeper heard this young man's words, he smiled helplessly. This is a very self-aware person.
…
"Your Excellency, since the implementation of the family's pilot program, there have been as many as 117 adopted children from both formal and peripheral members of our family."
"We have hired the best teachers, nutritionists, psychologists, etc. for these children to give them the best conditions so that they can grow up healthily and happily without their parents around."
"Well, very good." Mulia expressed great satisfaction with the confidence reported by these elders one after another. "This policy will continue to be implemented and let those family members who are willing to entrust their children to us see how they can grow up under the guidance of the family."
What kind of outstanding children will they be?”
…
roar!
The majestic beast roared in the city, and the sound waves visible to the naked eye shattered the surrounding building glass, revealing the majesty and ferocious posture of a high-rise predator.
Around this giant beast, men and women were everywhere screaming and crying in fear, because the appearance of this monster was so sudden that many people were not prepared.
This was a giant beast with blue-yellow carapace on its limbs, chest and back, and scattered yellow hair on its body. It didn't even care about these tiny creatures at its feet.
In its eyes, these tiny two-legged beasts were not even qualified to fill a gap in his teeth. All it wanted to do was to understand what had just happened.
Why did it suddenly appear from the jungle full of life in this steel jungle filled with such tiny bipedal beasts?
Feeling a little confused, the Beast King suddenly fell into anger after he couldn't figure out what happened, so the surrounding buildings became its outlet, and it wreaked havoc on the surrounding buildings.
But not long after the giant beast was destroyed, the city's defensive garrison troops had arrived. The Star Armor Division of the defensive army looked at the huge monster in front of them, controlled their external weapons and opened fire.
But the native species that suddenly appeared here is not a vegetarian either. A crystal on its head exudes a hazy light, and then a bright yellow spherical energy shield spreads, completely wrapping his body in it.
But the fierce artillery fire bombarded this bright yellow shield. Although it was blown up and down and looked crumbling, the city's defense forces never broke it.
Seeing this scene, some of the brave Star Armor Masters took out their Star Armor melee weapons and rushed in front of the giant beast, hoping to kill it through close combat.
"This kind of monster suddenly appeared again. Is it really the same as the rumors? We betrayed our original belief in the gods, so the gods sent messengers to punish us."
Not only did the several attacks not achieve effective results, but they also lost a large number of manpower. In the security headquarters, a young officer's eyes were filled with fear.
Things like this have appeared one after another in the city since the belief in the Star Goddess spread like a virus in the church's jurisdiction.
"Huh, because you don't believe in it, you sent envoys to destroy it. Does such a god really qualify to be called a god? This is simply a demon."
The commander in charge heard the will of his men begin to waver, snorted coldly, and said with some disdain, "And this is not a messenger of the gods, he is just a stronger native species."
…
In a crumbling building, there were cries, screams, and calls for help everywhere. Because this building happened to be swung by the lord-level native species that just passed by, the people in this building were all at this time.
He hurriedly tried to escape from the building.
However, in the building that has begun to tilt, it is impossible to use the rapid descent channel at all, and jumping from such a high floor is also a death.
"In order to prevent the spread of my belief, they can even think of this method. These people are probably at their wits end, right? It's so stupid that it makes people laugh."
At this time, the miserable scene of the city was reflected in the golden eyes of an elegant and intellectual lady. She smiled calmly, and then stretched out her hand a little.
So, in the building that was about to tilt and collapse, next to a mature woman whose legs were pinned by a fallen bookcase, the pendant hanging around her neck began to glow brightly.
The woman who originally felt pain in her legs instantly noticed something strange happening to her body. She quickly pulled out the pendant hanging around her neck, and then looked at the glowing pendant in her hand, her face showing excitement.
and a look of joy.
Because she felt that her body was full of power from the light emanating from the pendant, she tried to kick it. The cabinet that was originally pressing her legs and leaving her with no hope of escape was actually kicked open by her.
.
The elegant mature woman stood up and was a little surprised to find that her legs, which she had expected to be broken, were now intact.
The reason for all this is because of the pendant in her hand. The injury on her leg is being repaired quickly in the light emitted by the pendant.
"Is it the great star goddess, Raya?" The woman who escaped from the predicament did not rush to escape, but carefully held the pendant and asked in a low voice.
"Believer Sheila, are you willing to be my apostle?" A disembodied female voice sounded.
"Yes." The woman who had narrowly escaped death shouted excitedly when she heard this voice that seemed to be trying to reach her heart.
"Then, I will give you the courage and strength to become the light of hope that saves your city!"
The pendant held in the woman's hand suddenly bloomed with extremely bright light, shrouding her body, and then flew out of the crumbling building with her body...
