Boss, please help

Chapter 122

Lin Xi smiled slightly at Luo Xue, then turned her head to look at Director Liu with a serious, even stern expression.

"Axiang, have you really decided?"

Director Liu was stunned, as if he was a little dazed because of his title.

Lin Xi looked at her and slowly softened her gaze.

The two looked at each other, time seemed to freeze, and the air became sticky and slow.

Luo Xue looked at Lin Xi, then turned to look at Director Liu, then at Lin Xi, then at Director Liu.

For a moment, she felt a rare embarrassment.

Two silver-haired old men and old ladies, whose combined age is estimated to be almost two hundred years old, actually had an affair in front of her, a "little young man", in public.

This wave of dog food came by surprise, it was enough.

However, Luo Xue didn't disturb the twilight love-like atmosphere, pretending that she didn't exist, and tried her best to integrate herself into the air.

After a while, Director Liu came back to his senses, avoiding Lin Xi's sight, and said with a slightly coy expression, "You're already very old, what's your name, Ah Xiang, it's a joke for the little girl."

Luo Xue secretly said: Ha ha, now I remember that I am a little girl, why didn't you see me when you were flirting just now?

Of course, she just said with a smile on the face: "No, I didn't hear anything."

Lin Xi sighed, and looked serious: "Ah Xiang, I still have a way, as long as..."

Director Liu raised his hand and interrupted him to continue speaking.

The old lady looked gentle and calm, and she had such a calm and calm look after experiencing countless ups and downs in life.

"No need, how long can it last after paying such a high price? It's not cost-effective at all, and..."

She smiled softly, and her voice was also gentle: "Brother Xi, I'm tired."

When Lin Xi heard her blurting out "Brother Xi", her eyes turned red instantly, and her voice choked up: "I, Axiang, I..."

Luo Xue: "..."

I rub!

It's not over, is it?
Although her actual psychological age is over a thousand years old, she really can't stand two old men and old ladies showing affection in front of her.

There is no feeling of love until it becomes hurt, and there is no helplessness of not knowing what happened and going deep. I just feel like I want to put my own eyes.

Fortunately, Director Liu was more shameless than the old man Lin Xi, so he quickly stopped Lin Xi's nasty words that were about to blurt out: "Okay, okay, in front of the little girl, don't talk about the past.

Brother Xi, let me have a chat with the little girl alone.Let's talk again when we're done talking with her, shall we? "

"Okay, okay, I'm going out now."

Lin Xi took one last look at Director Liu, and strode away from the old office.

Luo Xue turned her head and looked at Director Liu.

Director Liu also looked at her with a smile and said, "You must have a lot of doubts, right?"

Luo Xue said straight to the point: "Yes, the biggest doubt is the successor you mentioned just now, what are you referring to?"

Director Liu laughed and said to her, "Drink your saliva first, I will tell you all your doubts, don't worry."

Luo Xue thought to herself, obviously you are the ones who are anxious.

She picked up the glass and took a sip of plain water.

Director Liu kept watching her drink the water, and then slowly started talking.

"The origin of the demon hunter and the organizational structure of the demon hunter, I think you already have a preliminary understanding, right?"

Luo Xue nodded: "Although the understanding is not perfect and systematic, but I have a general understanding."

"Okay, then I don't need to repeat it again. As a demon hunter, one of the identifications is the sword of Damocles, you should also know it?"

"know."

Director Liu smiled and said, "You are lucky. You don't need to implant a miniature bomb in your mind. There have only been two cases of this in the history of the Demon Hunter Organization, except for ordinary members without extraordinary power."

"Two cases?"

"Yes, two cases, you are the second case."

Luo Xue was a little surprised, and asked, "What about the first case?"

Director Liu nodded and said, "Yes, the first case is me?"

"Ok?"

Luo Xue froze for a moment, and couldn't help but look her up and down.

With her foundation-building cultivation, she didn't feel the slightest threat from Director Liu, so she always thought she was an ordinary person.

But she turned out to be a person with extraordinary strength?
Luo Xue couldn't help perceiving the other party carefully again with her divine sense, indeed, she didn't notice anything different from ordinary people in her body.

"With all due respect, I feel that you are no different from ordinary people."

Director Liu laughed and said, "Because my abilities are useless and too weak."

She explained: "My ability is invulnerable to all poisons. At least the known toxins in the world are useless to me. Of course, the premise is that the dosage is not excessive, otherwise I will be put in a pool full of venom, and I will be killed." Even if they are not drowned, they will be drowned."

Luo Xue said: "Ten thousand poisons will not invade, this ability is very powerful."

Many supernatural powers actually contain deadly toxins. If they have the ability to be invulnerable to all poisons, they will directly abolish most of the opponent's abilities.

"You're right, it sounds powerful and powerful. But what if this super power doesn't bring me any physical attribute bonus?"

Director Liu said: "In other words, I actually only have the physique and vitality of an ordinary person. Although I can be immune to various toxins, what's the point?

If I fight with Taotie, I can indeed avoid being poisoned, but poison is often just an attribute attached to Taotie's power.I could easily be torn apart, and my non-toxic physique is a joke. "

Luo Xue frowned, that's why.

But it's not surprising, the gluttony of this world was originally the second generation of gluttony created by the three ancestor kings dividing their own abilities.

Strictly speaking, there are all kinds of imperfections, and it is normal to have useless abilities.

The members of the Demon Hunters are the third-generation gluttonous man-made.

Moreover, the process for a demon hunter to obtain the power of gluttony is to select candidates who can barely resist the evil spirit of gluttony power through numbers, and then try to absorb part of the power of gluttony to become a person of extraordinary power.

In this process, the success rate is extremely low, and the fate of those who fail can be imagined.

And the successful ones just use their own willpower to forcibly suppress the evil spirit of Taotie, not to accept or eliminate the evil spirit.

Therefore, there is a risk of losing control at any time, especially the more Taotie stone power absorbed, the greater the risk and danger of losing control.

But if you don't absorb the Taotie Stone because you are afraid of increasing the risk of losing control, then your strength is not strong enough, and the gap in power between you and the Taotie cannot be narrowed.

The so-called demon hunter is actually such an embarrassing existence.

This is also the reason why humans have been unable to defeat gluttony for thousands of years.

After all, how could the third-generation Taotie, the defective product among the defective products, be able to fight against the three ancestor kings and the second-generation Taotie?

After humans forcibly absorbed the power of the Taotie Stone, even if they managed to survive and maintain their sanity, there were countless cases of gaining useless abilities.

"Because there are examples like mine, many gluttonous stones of unknown origin in the storage room have been temporarily sealed by the organization, and will not be taken out at will for others to try.

After all, no one knows what kind of power is sealed in the Taotie Stone?If it is some useless power, it would be too funny to obtain it at the cost of so many human lives. "

Director Liu sighed and shook his head slightly.

Luo Xue expressed her understanding.

The Taotie stone that Director Liu absorbed should belong to a part of the inherited power that was extracted from a certain Taotie.It's a pity that because the source of the gluttonous stone is not clear, there is no way to find other parts of the gluttonous power to absorb.

"Actually, for me, this is considered a good thing. After all, I am too useless, so I don't need to face the murderous and terrifying Taotie.

I often think, if it weren't for this, I might have died long ago, just like those partners and children I used to disappear into this world without a sound. "

She said with a wry smile, shook her head and said: "In the past, the experts of the biological institution thought that although my ability was useless to kill the enemy, it could be used to benefit mankind.

For example, powerful antidotes can be manufactured, or drugs that are immune to viruses or biological toxins, etc.I'm also very happy to hear that, at least the power I obtained through desperate efforts is not useless.

But in the end, after various examinations and experiments, I found that my physique was that of a normal person, without any peculiarities.My invulnerability to all poisons is a special ability, which cannot be used for human scientific research. "

Luo Xue was silent, that was indeed quite useless.

This kind of ability is simply too bad.

Especially at the cost of life, it is simply not worth the candle.

"But there are also advantages. Although the ability is useless, at least I don't have to worry about losing control. After all, with such a poor ability, the evil spirit is at most equivalent to the irritability after menstruation. It is simply dispensable."

Director Liu laughed at himself.

Luo Xue was speechless, so she gave her a sympathetic look.

"Hehe, you don't need to sympathize with me. Although I was indeed depressed and sad for a while, I found something more meaningful later on."

Director Liu signaled Luo Xue to get up, and the two walked to the window.

Through the window, you can see the children coming and going outside the window.

"Are these the children?" Luo Xue asked.

"Yeah, these are the children. Or, the children from generation to generation. When they came here, some were just a few days old, and some were already eight or nine years old.

I took care of them growing up, eating, sleeping, shitting and peeing.Teach them to speak, teach them to read and read, tell them stories, and listen to them talk about their troubles...

For so many years, I have been the dean of this orphanage, and I am also the mother of all the children. "

When Luo Xue heard this, her face became very strange.

Could it be that what she said about letting herself be her successor meant taking her place as the mother of all the children?

Seeing this, Director Liu smiled and shook his head: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not asking you to replace me as the mother of all the children."

Her face suddenly straightened, serious and severe.

"However, I want you to replace me and become their 'mother' in another sense!"

Luo Xue was taken aback, isn't this still someone's mother?
Another meaning, of course another meaning, she couldn't really give birth to them.

At most, she is a stepmother.

"I don't ask you to take care of their daily life, I don't ask you to educate them, and I don't ask you to share their little secrets to laugh at their troubles, to accompany them in trouble, to be happy with them, and to be sad with them...

I will arrange for other people to do these things, you do what you want to do, you don't even need to visit them, you don't even need to know their names. "

"Then what shall I do?"

Luo Xue asked in a strange tone.

Isn't such a request a stranger?
"I want you to love them as you love your own children."

Director Liu held Luo Xue's hands and looked at her pleadingly.

Luo Xue secretly sighed, this request is too difficult.

To be precise, it is precisely because of the things that Director Liu said earlier that she does not need to do, so there will be the following results.

The antecedent is that there is a mutual bond and companionship first, and then there will be a mother's love for these children later.

It's really embarrassing to skip the antecedent and ask her for the consequences.

After all, who can treat strangers like their own children?

"Sorry, I may not be able to."

Director Liu seemed to have expected her to answer this way, and instead of continuing to dwell on this topic, he returned to the original topic.

"I told you earlier that the two of us were the only two who didn't plant miniature bombs. Except for the two of us, all the demon hunters who got their power from the Taotie Stone had a miniature bomb in their brain lobe."

"Yes, I know."

"Then do you know who owns the remote control of this tiny bomb?"

Director Liu asked.

"Could it be..."

Luo Xue looked up at her with surprise.

"That's right, the remote control of this miniature bomb is in my hand. The organization calls me the sword bearer, the sword bearer of the sword of Damocles."

Luo Xue suddenly realized that the successor they were talking about was the successor of the sword holder.

"If you want to become a sword bearer of the Sword of Damocles, you need two basic conditions."

Director Liu continued: "First, he is a member of the Demon Hunter Organization and has extraordinary abilities. Second, there is absolutely no risk of losing control, and he did not plant miniature bombs."

These two conditions are the result of a compromise between the demon hunters and the government.

The first condition was put forward by the Demon Hunter Organization, that the person holding the sword should be a compatriot of his own, so that everyone could rest assured that they would put their lives in the hands of each other.

The second condition was put forward by the government.Although they have extraordinary abilities, they are not at risk of losing control, so they can barely be regarded as normal human beings.At the same time, because no miniature bombs are planted, overly extreme decisions will not be made.

"So, the moment you join the Demon Hunters, you will automatically become my successor, the sword-bearer of the next generation of Demon Hunters!"

"I don't know."

Luo Xue said: "I just joined the organization, how did you trust me so unreservedly? Don't you even need the minimum inspection and training?"

Director Liu looked at her, smiled gently and kindly: "Luo Xue, I can't wait because I'm going to die."
