Do not engage in underworld operations in the human world!

Chapter 121 Traveling through Greek Mythology: My name is Ding Zhen

After coming out of the Tower of Salvation, the smile on Jiang Lu's face gradually faded.

He realized that the current time no longer allowed him to waste any more.

Within a hundred years, the war in the underworld will come to an end, and a new beginning will begin. At that time, it will be the best time for you to regain your power.

If converted to real-world time, this period is approximately one month.

Jiang Lu didn't know how high he had to be to participate in that level of struggle. All he could do was seize every moment and every second to enter the spiritual realm and gain enough benefits.

According to the current speed, it took three or four days to upgrade from level 1 to level 12. In addition to fighting against the spiritual realm, a total of four spiritual realms were conquered, including two S-level and two A-level.

However, the two A-level spiritual realms have only been upgraded to four levels in total, and the things they are given are quite satisfactory. Most of them are obtained by exploring maps outside the main line of the spiritual realm.

Considering this, Jiang Lu felt that he must rely on the characteristics of the open world of the spiritual realm to explore as many new areas as possible every time.

If you look at it from this perspective, then there is no problem with his approach in [Ten Days of Hell].

Thinking of this, Jiang Lu, who had conquered two A-level spiritual realms in one day, had no idea of ​​resting. After all, he had rested long enough in the Tower of Salvation.

Sitting on the bed, he opened the panel, intending to find a single S-level spiritual realm to enter.

Jiang Lu, who was hesitating about what kind of spiritual realm to choose, suddenly thought of the branch improvement of the charm attribute. Considering that this could also provide some enhancement, he temporarily withdrew from the spiritual realm pool and opened the forum to search. See if there are any relevant experience sharing posts.

Soon, he discovered a problem, that is, although each exorcist's certain attributes will unlock branch improvements after reaching forty points, everyone seems to be different.

At least after looking around, he didn't see any exorcists in a similar situation to his own.

The situation is roughly divided into two types.

One is to develop into species. Most of the branches of humans are creatures that exist in reality, such as the power of bears and the power of tigers. Rarely, there will also be branches of mythical creatures, a bit like the opening chapter of The Classic of Mountains and Seas. eggs, and then evolve in various directions.

In addition, there are also serious professions, from doctors to surgeons/physicians, soldiers to mercenary soldiers/professional killers, and there are also rarer ones, some non-existent professions that can be linked to myths and legends.

But the common point is that after you continue to obtain easter eggs, you can add some special effects to the attributes based on the direction of the branches.

Jiang Lu wanted to find a few people to ask, but exorcists with this kind of ability tend to keep it secret. Even if they send out posts to show off or share their experiences, they are all anonymous and cannot be sent privately.

This caused Jiang Lu to look at it but not watch it.

"Ancient God." Jiang Lu thought, remembering what Isina said about the Ancient God.

Although the appearance is not very good-looking, it is powerful enough and that is enough.

Therefore, Jiang Lu had a direction when choosing the spiritual realm.

That is to follow what the experience post says, try to choose some spiritual realms with elements that can be linked to branches.

Soon, he found a suitable target and clicked to confirm.

At this moment, Huang Xiu'e, who had just woken up, jumped into Jiang Lu's lap in a daze.

[Spiritual realm name: Kingdom Star Gate]

【Far North·Hybrier】

[The sun only rises once a year, and extremely cold storms linger all day long, making this place always isolated from the outside world]

[Cold nobles and powerful witches rule here]

[Hiberil has many beliefs, and humans and demi-humans coexist harmoniously]

[The residents here live a very prosperous life]

[People who don’t need to worry about their livelihood use romantic vision to imagine the kingdom of God in the universe]

[The uncontrollable heart of exploration allowed them to find the way to the universe]

[One after another great planets were conquered by the Hybrians, and the precious minerals and resources on the planets were brought back one by one, making the Hybrians stronger]

[And those who dare to pass through the starry sky gate and go to unknown places to find treasures are called pioneers]

[The Hybrians were supposed to spread their footprints all over the universe, until one day, the Starry Sky Gate broke down]

[Number of spiritual exorcists in this field: 1]

[Mission goal: Find out why the Starry Sky Gate is broken and solve the root cause of the problem]

[Note: The time passage rate is 1:100 (that is, 1 second in the real world is 100 seconds in the spiritual realm)]

Jiang Lu pushed away the snow covering the outside of the cave and kept rubbing his hands, which were red from the cold.

"Where did this brush come from?"

He stuck his head out of the cave and observed the surrounding environment.

The cold wind is howling, the huge mountains are covered with snow, and the fog is filling the eyes. Even in the daytime, the visibility is only ten meters.

Looking back, the cave that was pitch dark just now could finally be seen clearly.

A stiff corpse wrapped in thick animal skins and wearing a thick fur hat with antlers on its head was slumped in the corner.

"This is..." Jiang Lu narrowed his eyes: "Santa Claus?"

He looked down at himself. He was wearing the same fur coat, except that there were no antlers on the hat. It was exactly the same as the corpse.

Jiang Lu judged that he should have directly copied the corpse's outfit when the birth point was refreshed.

After thinking about it, Jiang Lu stepped forward, switched his hats with those of the corpse, then squatted down and started to check the items on the corpse.

A map, a few pieces of dried meat, and a diary with a name.

These are all the things on the body.

Relying on the diary, Jiang Lu knew the man's name: Li.

Jiang Lu suddenly realized: "So you are not Santa Claus!"

He touched the antlers now on his head and said firmly:

"You are Li Xiaolu!"

So Jiang Lu changed the eulogy he learned in Florence into rap, in order to commemorate the poor man who died in the cave.

[377th year of the Northern Calendar]

[The sun is about to rise again, and the priest said that this time the extreme daylight will still last for six months]

[The creatures in the snowy mountains should be revived, it’s time to hunt]

[I will definitely bring back enough prey this time, and then participate in the selection of pioneers]

This is the last page of Lee's diary.

Jiang Lu looked at it carefully for a long time, and then he saw the words between the words. There were two words written all over the book, which were "Planting Flags".

"But isn't the Starry Sky Gate broken? What's the use of the Pioneer?"

He said to himself, feeling a little strange.

Putting away the frozen meat and diary, Jiang Lu took the map and prepared to find the city-state of Hybril.

At this moment, a low roar made Jiang Lu freeze up.

After the sun rises, the creatures in the snowy mountains will revive. Could it be said that

He looked outside the cave - a golden creature with the head of a cat and the body of a spider was biting the neck of an elk, looking at Jiang Lu with eager eyes.

This is Huang Xiu'e who smuggled into the spiritual realm with Jiang Lu.

Seeing Jiang Lu looking over, Huang Xiu'e returned to her original form and threw the elk body in front of Jiang Lu, and then began to lick the hair.

"Is this... for me?" Jiang Lu asked nervously.

Huang Xiu'e barked twice, with a humanized look of disgust on the cat's face.

Jiang Lu shook his head: "Thank you, I'm not hungry."

Huang Xiu'e keenly noticed something was wrong.

Did this guy not recognize me?

Before she could react, Jiang Lu showed a look of reminiscence.

"I also have a cat in my house that looks very similar to you. If she is still here, she should be about the same age as you, right?"

Huang Xiu'e:?

When did I die?

"In short, although you are also very good-looking, I already have my E'e at home, so I can't adopt you anymore, so I declined."

As Jiang Lu said this, he got out of the cave in front of Huang Xiu'e, lowered his head and pointed at the map and walked out.

Outside the cave, Huang Xiu'e stood in the biting cold wind, feeling the urge to turn around and leave.

While Jiang Lu was studying the route, Huang Xiu'e, who had walked some distance in the opposite direction, became more and more angry, so she turned back and took a shortcut to catch up. Jiang Lu was about to pass a corner and almost collided with the panting Huang Xiu'e.

"Eh? Another cat bug?"

Jiang Lu raised his head, took two steps back, and looked at it for a while: "It looks a little more fierce than the one just now."

Huang Xiu'e couldn't hold back, swung her sharp claws and gave him a big dick.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Lu got up from the snow, sat there for a while, then touched his face, lowered his head and rummaged around on the ground. Finally, he found half of his face on a stone.

He picked up his face, shook the snow off it, and then covered it with the exposed muscles.

The healing BUFF begins to take effect.

Then he smiled: "Sure enough, my judgment was not wrong. I just said that the next one should be more fierce. I am worthy of being the person who knows the most about cats and insects in the world."

Huang Xiu'e, who was resting on his antler hat after shrinking, couldn't hold back any longer.

She roared "ouch".

Jiang Lu's hair suddenly stood up and he looked around.

"You haven't left yet, have you?"

It wasn't until Huang Xiu'e started scratching his scalp in a certain pattern like she did at home that Jiang Lu noticed the guy above his head and hugged him in front of him.

"Eh? E'e, why are you here?"

Huang Xiu'e, who was lifted high by Jiang Lu, yawned helplessly.

Who would have thought that Jiang Lu was shocked and said: "So you can not only escape the spiritual realm with me, but also sneak in? Damn it! Then why didn't you say anything when I was beaten just now?"

As he said that, he put Huang Xiu'e on the ground: "Now we can take revenge on the forced one, Snow Leopard, let's go!"

Huang Xiu'e's eyelids were half drooped, she turned around and left.

Half an hour later, under Jiang Lu's persistence, Huang Xiu'e finally told him with body language the fact that the two cats and bugs just now were hers.

Then she knew what it means to be evil.

Jiang Lu put aside all his own problems and just stared at her and kept talking about how she slapped his face off. It was not until Huang Xiu'e, who was unbearable, took the responsibility that should have been borne by Jiang Lu that the latter shut up. .

The helpless Huang Xiu'e walked on six pairs of appendages, holding a map on her forelimbs and walking in the snow with a kitten face on her arm, while Jiang Lu sat leisurely on her body admiring the snow scenery and chewing dried meat.

Of course, Jiang Lu still has some conscience and will feed Huang Xiu'e from time to time.

Just like that, one person and one cat gradually walked out of the mountains and came to a huge basin.

Jiang Lu looked from a distance and saw that the basin was surrounded by mountains. The sun was hanging high in the center of the basin, and directly below the sun was a city that now looked no bigger than the size of a palm, which was marked on the map as "Hybri." "Er" city-state.

"Can such a small city be called a city-state?" Jiang Lu was a little surprised. Even considering the perspective of the near and far, this city is too small.

Being on flat ground, the road was no longer rough, and Huang Xiu'e no longer held back, but started running like crazy.

But as he ran, Jiang Lu realized something was wrong.

The first weird thing that happened was that he would keep sliding forward on Huang Xiu'e's back until he hit the back of her head.

At first Jiang Lu thought it was because of Huang Xiu'e's running and stopping, but after observing, he felt that there was no such problem. Until he inadvertently looked back, he realized that just now it was just a towering mountain range, and he didn't know when it had already stopped. Become towering.

Jiang Lu was stunned for a moment, and then looked forward. The previously palm-sized Hybrier seemed to be slightly taller now.

Huang Xiu'e ran like this for a while, but the scary thing was that with the speed that she could run from the south to the north of the map in a few minutes in the fight against the spirit realm, the mountains were already far behind. Even though he was standing behind him, Jiang Lu still felt that the distance between him and Hybrier hadn't gotten much closer.

Jiang Lu even had the illusion that they were getting smaller as they kept running along the basin.

When Huang Xiu'e ran for more than ten hours and finally reached the outskirts of Hybrier exhausted, Jiang Lu realized that this was not a small town. It was not an exaggeration to say that it blocked the sky and the sun.

The city wall, which is hundreds of meters long, stands on the snowfield. Standing at the corner of the wall and looking left and right, you can't even see the end.

It is difficult to imagine how such a magnificent complex of buildings that could not be built by human beings came into being.

The Elysium City, which I thought was exaggeratedly huge at first, compared with Hyberil, had a huge and absurd contrast, like a pickleman and a cotton man standing together and competing on the same stage.

Jiang Lu now wanted to make Li Xiaolu live, and then asked him if he was out of his mind for going so far away to hunt, but when he thought that it would take almost a whole day to go back, he had to let him go angrily.

There were no guards on the city wall, so Jiang Lu asked Huang Xiu'e to become smaller, lie on his head, and then began to look for the entrance.

When he found the huge city gate that could pass through an aircraft carrier, he found that there were no guards at the gate.

Jiang Lu suspected that this was an empty city for the first time, but after he walked past the nearly 100-meter-thick city wall, he discovered that this city-state was not only not an empty city, but was in fact extremely prosperous.

Every element Jiang Lu could imagine could be found in every corner of this medieval city-state, and there were even many items that he had never seen before.

He speculated that those slightly weird elements were probably things brought back by the Hybrians from other planets.

Dragons, griffins, unicorns, and various mythical creatures gallop freely in the sky above Hybril, coexisting harmoniously with humans in this land.

The periphery of Hybril is surrounded by circles of low houses, packed together with great density. In the middle, there are towering castles one after another, and in the center, there is a castle built with hundreds of buildings. The temple on the high platform is almost as high as the city wall.

Above the temple, there is a suspended circular black hole. Obviously, this is the so-called star gate.

No matter what angle you look at it, it is round, but because its black color is too deep, Jiang Lu can't tell whether it is a ball or a strange mirror-like portal.

What surprised Jiang Lu even more was that the demi-humans mentioned in the mission background could be seen everywhere in Hybrier!

Demi-humans with beastly features and different races walk on the same road and breathe the same air as humans.

Jiang Lu was immediately attracted by this bizarre city

"So." the Asian female law enforcement officer with rabbit ears asked: "Is this why you lift up women's skirts on the street?"

Jiang Lu, who was handcuffed in front of the interrogation table, replied seriously: "I just want to see whether she is a lion or a cat through her tail, because I can't tell just by looking at her ears."

The female law enforcement officer sighed.

It had just been her turn to take over her shift, and she was faced with such a weirdo.

She originally thought it was just a trivial harassment incident, but it wasn't until she arrested the person that she discovered that the other person was not a Hybrier at all. What was even more strange was that he also brought along a researcher who had even been a pioneer in her ancestors. Creatures that no college student in paleontology has ever seen.

After her unremitting efforts, she finally made Jiang Lu realize that no matter how hard he pretended, he could not hide the fact that he was not a Hybrier, then Jiang Lu admitted that he was from outside.

Jiang Lu had already foreseen that a battle for freedom and a city-wide pursuit were about to take place, but who knew that the rabbit-eared female law enforcement officer just nodded lightly: "It seems that you are just a person who mistakenly entered Xibeli." There is no threat to your ordinary people."

"Are you so careless?" Jiang Lu was startled: "How about you interrogate me again? What if I am a very vicious villain?"

"I don't know, but I feel like you should be a good person."

The rabbit-eared law enforcement officer shrugged: "If you put aside your lust and your crime, my first impression of you is not bad."

"Why am I so horny?" Jiang Lu was dissatisfied.

The rabbit-eared law enforcement officer walked up to Jiang Lu and looked at Jiang Lu's legs with contempt: "You have been in this state since you came in."

Jiang Lu understood what was wrong and said to her, "Wait a moment", then closed his eyes and began to meditate.

Within a few seconds, the rabbit-eared law enforcement officer took a few steps back in horror.

Jiang Lu opened his eyes and said calmly: "I'm sorry to scare you, but for my reputation, I have to prove it."

The rabbit-eared law enforcement officer couldn't help but ask: "Would you like to have a drink with me after I get off work?"

"I am now a suspect, please respect your profession."

"Feel sorry."

After calming down, the rabbit-eared law enforcement officer returned to his seat and opened the record book: "Now I have to make a record."

"Okay." Jiang Lu was very cooperative.

"Name."

"Jiang Bao Ding Zhen."

"A very special name. What is your pet's type?"

"snow leopard."

"Snow leopard?" The rabbit-eared law enforcement officer was stunned: "What does the snow leopard outside look like?"

"Oh no, Cat Cat Bug."

"A species that Catworm has never seen before."

"Speaking of which, where is she now?"

"In the next room, the police officer of the cat tribe is interrogating it." The rabbit-eared law enforcement officer smiled: "After all, it has a cute cat head."

"Professional." Jiang Lu nodded with satisfaction.

"Is your race human?"

"No."

"no?"

"I am from the Zang clan."

"Another race I've never heard of," the rabbit-eared law enforcement officer recorded while continuing to ask, "Where are you from?"

"The State of Adhesion."

"United Nations?"

"No, no, sticky country." Jiang Lu repeated with emphasis: "sticky."

"Okay, how did you cross the barrier and get here."

"Crossing."

"what?"

"Ah, no." Jiang Lu changed his mind: "I am an explorer. I kept walking to the north, and ended up here."

"Explorer, okay, then what is the purpose of your expedition?"

"I was trying to find a tobacco alternative to e-cigarettes."

Jiang Lu coughed twice: "I have some pharyngitis recently, and the doctor said I can no longer smoke e-cigarettes."

"As for tobacco, there are quite a few tobacconists in Hyboril who have been outside. You can go and take a look later."

"So I don't have to go to jail?"

"Need not."

"That's good."

"But you have to spend one night with the lady you offended." The rabbit-eared law enforcement officer explained to Jiang Lu: "This is the punishment she requested."

Jiang Lu slammed the table angrily: "She called the police and arrested me because I refused!"

"That can't be done unless someone bails you out." "Can you bail me out?"

"Would you like to have a drink with me after get off work?"

"can."

"Then you can be acquitted now."

So the matter was resolved satisfactorily.

When the rabbit-eared law enforcement officer opened the door of the interrogation room next door, Huang Xiu'e, who had long been a child of a poor family, was resisting the temptation of dried fish with a determined look on her face and said nothing.

The cat-eared law enforcement officer sighed to the rabbit-eared law enforcement officer: "It didn't say anything."

Jiang Lu understood Huang Xiu'e's thoughts immediately and said, "Can't you just say nothing after eating?"

Only then did the Maoer law enforcement officer notice Jiang Lu: "Hey, what are you doing?"

"It's all a misunderstanding." Rabbit Ears Law Enforcement Officer explained: "He is just an explorer from the outside world."

"What does it have to do with him being an explorer and being harassed on the street?"

"It's an adventure." Jiang Lu Xiaoxiong spread his hands and said, "I've already been caught. Isn't it dangerous enough?"

"Such an adventure, right?"

"Anyway, can you help me on duty for a while?" Rabbit Ear Law Enforcement Officer requested: "I have to take him to apologize to the person who reported the crime, which will take some time."

"I know." The cat-eared law enforcement officer nodded: "Go ahead."

"Thank you for taking care of her."

Jiang Lu smiled at the cat-eared law enforcement officer, lifted Huang Xiu'e and put it on his head, and walked towards the rabbit-eared law enforcement officer who was wearing a thick coat and walked out of the law enforcement bureau.

Returning to the street, Jiang Lu opened his arms and breathed in the fresh air.

“The feeling of freedom!”

"It's been less than half an hour since you went in and came out." The rabbit-eared law enforcement officer shook his head.

Through conversation, Jiang Lu learned that her name was Cynthia, and she had just joined the Law Enforcement Bureau of Zal District last year.

As soon as he left the law enforcement bureau, Jiang Lu tentatively pointed at the circular black hole above the temple and asked, "What is that?"

"The Gate of the Starry Sky." Cynthia introduced: "It opens once a month for pioneers to explore unknown places, and then pick up the previous batch of pioneers who went to unknown places. This is why Hyberil can be so prosperous now. The essential."

"Can you take me to see it?"

Cynthia shook her head: "I'm afraid this won't work. Only the selected pioneers are qualified to approach the Starry Sky Gate."

"I see."

Jiang Lu felt a little disappointed, but in order to make his purpose less obvious, he hid his disappointment well and asked other questions.

Seeing Jiang Lu's keen interest in everything around him, Cynthia finally believed that he was not maliciously harassing her, but that he really couldn't control her curiosity because she had never seen such a wonderful sight.

Just when Cynthia was also curious about this person from the outside world, Jiang Lu suddenly asked: "Why do they dress differently from us?"

Cynthia looked over and found Jiang Lu pointing at several missionaries who were not wearing heavy furs but white robes.

"They are the priests of the Elk Goddess Iheuti." Cynthia explained: "In fact, the hat you are wearing is a symbol of the Elk Goddess's following."

"Elk Goddess, no wonder she got lost. She died laughing."

"what?"

Jiang Lu took off the unlucky hat as if nothing had happened, threw it to the side of the road, and then said to Cynthia: "Let's go, I need strong wine to warm my body now, and I also need you to help me understand this city as soon as possible."

But Cynthia didn't respond to Jiang Lu's request. She just said in surprise: "You just threw it away like that?"

Jiang Lu was a little strange, but he still explained disapprovingly: "I didn't know it represented religion at first, so I took it off a corpse to keep warm." Jiang Lu explained: "Now that I know what it represents , of course I can only take it off."

"But the priests of the Elk Goddess are over there. If they see you, you will be punished!" Cynthia said worriedly: "You'd better pick it up."

"Is it that serious?" Jiang Lu was also shocked. He had just come out of the Law Enforcement Department and he didn't want to be arrested again.

So he planned to bend down to pick up the elk hat and then throw it somewhere else.

But just when he was about to bend down, a priest who noticed Jiang Lu's behavior just now approached.

"Asshole! Pick up the elk hat." The priest shouted rudely to Jiang Lu.

Jiang Lu narrowed his eyes.

He didn't like the tone of this order, not to mention that the other party called him a bastard.

Then his rebellious psychology suddenly came up.

Brother, are you against me?

Jiang Lu looked at the priest: "Oh, I'm sorry."

He picked up the hat, then looked around and asked, "Where's the trash can?"

"What trash can? You actually said that elk hats are trash?!"

The priest was furious and grabbed Jiang Lu's hand: "I suspect you are disrespectful to the Elk Goddess!"

"Haha." Jiang Lu laughed at Cynthia in disbelief: "He is just suspicious."

"Uh" Cynthia was messy in the wind and at a loss.

The priest felt extremely insulted.

"Follow me! You need to go to the temple to accept your punishment!"

However, Jiang Lu did not panic at all: "But I am in a hurry to accept the death penalty."

The priest's anger suddenly disappeared, and he looked confused: "Huh?"

"I am a fugitive." Jiang Lu said while pointing at Cynthia: "I was just captured by this law enforcement officer, and now I will be executed immediately. If you don't believe me, ask her."

"Is this true?" The priest asked Cynthia for confirmation.

Facing Jiang Lu's expectant gaze, Cynthia nodded with difficulty, took out her law enforcement officer's ID, and said, "Yes."

The priest understood everything immediately: "I understand, you want to deliberately attract my attention, then anger me, and try to find a way to escape while I am taking you to be punished. You are so naive!"

"Oh, how could such a thing happen?" Jiang Lu held the priest's hand tightly: "Take me away, please take me away!"

"Go away!" the priest cursed: "Go and die, you scum!"

After that, he didn't care whether Jiang Lu picked up the elk hat or not, so he turned around and left.

Jiang Lu raised his eyebrows at the stunned Cynthia: "Settle it."

Cynthia didn't know how to evaluate Jiang Lu's operation, so she could only smile awkwardly: "You are so awesome."

"Let's go have a drink."

At the same time, the priest who had just caused trouble for Jiang Lu also returned to the other priests.

Someone immediately asked: "What happened? Why didn't you catch him?"

"What bad luck."

He smiled bitterly: "That bastard is a death row prisoner, and the lady next to him is a law enforcement officer. She just caught him. He is trying to find a way to escape in this way. How cunning."

"Well, I don't think so." One of the young men with blond curly hair and a beard sighed.

"what?"

"never mind."

"You're so weird."

A few people shook their heads and talked about other things.

Only the young man looked at Jiang Lu who held Cynthia's hand from a distance, and whispered to himself: "How can any death row prisoner do this?"

But immediately, he thought of something.

"But what if he is really a death row prisoner?" A glimmer of expectation flashed in his eyes.

"I have to go take a look."

the other side.

Jiang Lu pretended to help Cynthia read her palm prints for a while while arriving at a tavern named Kitty.

There are many people in the tavern. Because Zar District is considered a civilian area, most of the people drinking here are not people of high status. However, although these people behave rudely, they are still heroic and simple, which makes the tavern full of life. of fireworks.

Under the arrangement of the tavern owner, the two of them sat on a soft couch by the window and ordered a pot of wine recommended by the tavern owner.

Then Cynthia stretched out her hand and asked Jiang Lu to divine for her.

On the way before that, Jiang Lu had been holding her hand and praising her.

"Your hands are so small" "Why are you so much whiter than me" "I heard that girls' hands are soft" "You smell so good" "Your hands are so cold" "You are so cute" "Compare your hands" "Big or small" "Your hair smells so good" "Your eyes are so beautiful"

After an offensive beyond the version, Cynthia was already dizzy before even drinking.

After all, Cynthia is a demi-human, and there are still some differences from humans. Jiang Lu noticed several things such as her ears, bright red pupils, thick thighs but very slender calves, and slightly convex palms.

Gently press Cynthia's palm, and she will tremble involuntarily, just like a cat being pressed against its pads, which is very interesting.

Taking advantage of the excuse of palm reading, Jiang Lu played happily until the wine bottle was brought up.

"So do you see anything?"

After a sip of wine, Cynthia's chill was driven away a lot, her face turned rosy, and she even took off her coat, revealing the tight-fitting law enforcement uniform underneath.

Jiang Lu also took a sip of wine, and then said: "Your career line and life line are fine, but your love line is more tortuous."

"Oh?" Cynthia, who was already slightly tipsy, blinked: "Do you have any explanation?"

"People may become widowed when they reach middle age and have to take care of their children alone." Jiang Lu said bluntly.

"Uh" Cynthia suddenly lost interest.

Jiang Lu changed the topic: "But there is a way to solve it."

Cynthia became interested again: "How to crack it?"

"Don't get married, don't have children."

"Uh" Cynthia was no longer interested.

"But..." Jiang Lu continued: "I am a non-marriage person, and I don't like children."

Cynthia's interest was aroused again: "You mean"

"So my love line also has twists and turns."

"."

If it weren't for the wonderful feeling Jiang Lu gave Cynthia, she would have thrown wine on his face and asked, "Are you sick?"

But at this moment, Jiang Lu quietly asked: "Have you noticed that that person has been looking at us?"

"Who?" Cynthia subconsciously wanted to turn her head.

Jiang Lu quickly stopped him: "Don't look back, don't let him find out that we have noticed him."

"Oh."

"He came in not long after we came in. He seemed to be familiar with many people in the pub. Many people greeted him. He joined a table for two people. There were three of them now. They were not alone, but he He’s been looking our way.”

"Well, maybe there's something in this direction that arouses his interest?"

"It's impossible. There's nothing in this direction. The soft couches next to us are empty. He can only be looking at us."

"Maybe." Cynthia wanted to say that maybe he was her admirer, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Jiang Lu.

"Shh, he's coming."

Just as he finished speaking, a young priest with blond curly hair who had already changed into casual clothes came to the two of them.

"Excuse me, if you don't mind, I would like to invite you two to have a drink with me."

"Ah? Why?" Cynthia was puzzled.

But Jiang Lu sneered: "I don't think you want to invite the two of us? It should be just one of us, right?"

The other party was not angry after being exposed. He just smiled and asked, "Is it so obvious?"

Cynthia was stunned and immediately understood the other party's intention.

She immediately spoke to him with apology, and at the same time, the other party also spoke to Jiang Lu.

"Sorry, I have a male partner."

"Yes, I'd like to invite you to have a drink with me."

The two of them spoke at the same time, and then they both looked at each other.

Cynthia felt so embarrassed that she dug her toes on the ground, but the other party explained without changing her expression: "It doesn't matter, I didn't mean to invite you."

So Cynthia was even more embarrassed.

Jiang Lu also felt that it was outrageous. He originally thought that the other party was here to chat with Cynthia, but who knew that he was actually here to talk to him.

Now his brewing emotions suddenly dissipated.

"No, buddy, this isn't a male ketones pub, is it?"

"Of course not." The other party shook his head, and then explained: "Maybe you didn't notice me just now, but when you were dealing with the priest of the Elk Goddess, I happened to be nearby. I was very curious. As a death penalty, you How can I win the heart of this elegant woman?"

When the truth came to light, Jiang Lu finally let go of his guard.

"Of course it's not a real death row prisoner, I'm just trying to trick him." Jiang Lu waved his hand to the other party: "Okay, if you came here for this, then I've probably disappointed you. Please don't disturb us for drinking."

The other party's face clearly showed a disappointed expression, but he still did not leave, but continued to talk: "It seems that you are not a Hybrier?"

"Yeah, I'm from outside, so what?" Jiang Lu was obviously impatient.

"That's not true. It's just that my friends and I are curious about things outside. Maybe you can tell us what the outside world is like?"

Jiang Lu rolled his eyes when he heard these familiar words.

Why should I tell you stories? I'm not your mother.

In order to send him away, Jiang Lu deliberately made a request that even Cynthia, a law enforcement officer, could not help him: "According to what you said, I still want to see the Starry Sky Gate. Can you take me there?"

Who knew that the other party did not retreat despite the difficulties, but instead smiled mysteriously: "Well, it's really not a problem. If you just want to have a close look, I can really take you there, but if you want to go in in person, then you have to Pass the pioneer test first.”

"Eh?" Cynthia was surprised: "Really?"

Jiang Lu was surprised and looked at the other party suspiciously: "You kid, don't lie to me."

"Of course not," he promised, and then deliberately asked the other people in the tavern loudly: "Friends, when have I ever lied to someone?"

It was obvious that he was very popular, and someone immediately shouted: "Os never lies to anyone!"

"Look."

"Okay, I'll trust you for once." Jiang Lu nodded, stood up, handed Huang Xiu'e to Cynthia, and said, "I'll go have a few drinks and chat with them and then come back."

"Okay." Cynthia could only nod helplessly.

After Jiang Lu left, she changed to Jiang Lu's position so that she could see Jiang Lu's situation better, so that she could help him out as soon as possible with the convenience of the law enforcement officer.

But Cynthia obviously underestimated Jiang Lu's communication skills.

Jiang Lu originally went over to drink with Aos with a nonchalant expression, but not long after they sat down, they didn't know what they said, and the two of them started laughing, as if they had become buddies for no reason.

Then after a while, Jiang Lu at the wine table actually took the lead and started playing a game with the other three people.

Cynthia was very curious, so she asked the owner of the tavern to move to a place where she could hear several people talking.

Jiang Lu's voice became clear immediately.

"The rules are very simple. Everyone takes turns to talk about something they have done. If someone at the table has not done this, then that person will punish himself with a drink."

"Interesting." Austin nodded immediately, and then suggested based on this: "How about this, in order to prevent someone from lying, we swear to the Star Gate to be honest, so that those who lie will encounter bad luck, how about it? "

Of course Jiang Lu was not afraid, and the other two also agreed.

Cynthia on the side also became interested and listened carefully.

Everything was normal at first, but as she listened, her expression gradually changed, from interest to confusion, from confusion to shock, and from shock to horror.

A watchmaker named Forbes first said: "I once secretly took off my pants in the street."

No one drinks.

A carver named Aegion was next: "I've uh, I've had sex with women other than my wife."

Phoebus took a drink.

"It seems we need to make it more difficult." Aos smiled and said, "I once had a love that transcended species."

Phobos and Aegion had a drink.

Aos looked at Jiang Lu and his smile gradually faded.

Then it was Jiang Lu's turn.

"I once," Jiang Lu said with some embarrassment, "had a relationship with a rotting corpse that lasted for one night."

Phobos and Aegion had a drink.

Then Jiang Lu looked at Aos in awe.

The game went on round by round, with Phobos and Aegion drinking non-stop as long as Jiang Lu and Os's round was taking place, and it didn't take long for them to fall down.

So only Jiang Lu and Aos were left on the wine table, who hadn't drank a sip of wine until now.

The man's competitive spirit reached its peak at this moment, and the two of them were fighting each other, neither giving in to the other.

"I slept with gods!" Jiang Lu said through gritted teeth.

Os didn't drink.

Then Ao Si returned the favor: "I slept with a ghost!"

Jiang Lu didn’t drink.

Until Aos thought of something and limited the conditions to a very small range.

"Did you know that there is a country where the god they believe in is called God?"

Seeing Jiang Lu swallowing nervously, Ao Si smiled ferociously and said, "I once slept with an angel in the clouds above a city called Florence! Right above the church!"

Jiang Lu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly.

Os was stunned for a moment, and then he was so angry that he slapped the table: "Damn it! What a hell!"

　Good morning!
