Doomsday Totem

Chapter 38 Gaze
Just as Mu Yulinglan and Ye Xinling were fighting secretly, a young man in a luxurious military uniform walked over.After arriving at the scene, the young man stood directly beside Mu Yu Linglan, and asked, "Linglan, what happened?" When he was speaking, the young man seemed to only have Priestess in his eyes, while the other people present All like air.

This is very impolite and bad behavior. When others are reminiscing about the past, he suddenly intervenes forcefully, and there is no etiquette.However, for this uninvited guest, both Tie Slag and Lao Niu just had an indifferent expression, neither humble nor arrogant.They could all tell that this man was a nobleman in the Silver City, and if offended, he would be in a lot of trouble.

"It's okay, go and do your work." Mu Yulinglan replied coldly.When the young man arrived just now, she immediately put away her smile and changed back to the solemn and cold priest.

"Tell me if you're in trouble, don't be polite to me." As he spoke, the young man turned his head and glanced at Tie Zha and the others, then his eyes paused on Ye Xinling's face for a second, then he raised his hand, Signaled Iron Slag and others to leave.

Tie Slag glanced at Mu Yu Linglan, only to see that she was standing expressionlessly, and did not express any objection.Tie Zha immediately understood what she meant, and then he put his right hand on his chest and gave her a monk's salute, then turned around and left with Lao Niu and Ye Xinling.

Looking at Tie Slag's leaving back, Mu Yu Linglan felt waves of heartache.But she can't show too much intimacy with Tie Slag, especially in front of these noble children who are pursuing her.The young man next to her at this moment is named Carl Leiling, the fourth young master of Leiling's family, and one of her many suitors.In order to reject these suitors who are about to step through the threshold of the Temple of Praying for Rain, she declares that she will serve the God of Rain all her life and will not marry anyone.Therefore, if she showed an intimate attitude towards Iron Slag, it would arouse the jealousy of people like Karl.Maybe it will cause unnecessary trouble for the iron slag, or even a catastrophe.

Most of these Yincheng children don't regard the people on the ground as the same kind.In their mouth, the people on the ground are "bugs picking up garbage".Of course, people who hold this kind of concept are basically unsatisfactory little nobles or children of aristocratic families with poor abilities.For example, this Carl Leiling, although he is the fourth young master of the Leiling family, his ability to handle affairs is very bad, and his spiritual power is also very meager, so he does not do well in the aristocratic circle of Yincheng.

The aristocratic circle of Yincheng is characterized by comparison and competition with each other, and those who lose in the aristocratic circle usually discriminate against the people at the bottom.Perhaps only in this way can they regain some sense of existence.

In fact, the competition on Silver City is even more brutal than on the ground, it's just that people compete for different things.

During Mu Yulinglan's ten years in NO.13 Yincheng, she deeply realized this point.In the Silver City, people only value actual abilities and spiritual power.Either they have outstanding ability or spiritual power, otherwise they will be like an abandoned child, with no status at all except as a reproductive tool.

And in the eyes of the children of those aristocratic families who are not valued highly, Mu Yulinglan, who is not of high birth, has a lot of spiritual power, and holds the status of a priest, is the perfect marriage partner.However, they just thought about it. With Mu Yulinglan's status in the Temple of Praying for Rain, as long as she is not willing, basically no one can force her.

But then again, although they couldn't force Mu Yu Linglan, they were more than enough to deal with Iron Slag.

Mu Yulinglan knew this very well, so she watched Tie Slag leave without saying a word.But at this moment, a shout suddenly came from behind her!
"Guards! Guards! Catch them, don't let them get away!" A tall lieutenant ran over, pointed at Iron Slag's back and shouted, "Yes, those are the ones, catch them!"

When the soldiers of the Silver City Guard heard the lieutenant's shout, they immediately raised their submachine guns and surrounded Tie Slag and the others.Iron Slag tensed his body, squinted his eyes and looked around at the soldiers around him.In the eyes of the soldiers, he was like a ferocious beast that could rise up at any time.

"Soldier! Get back!" Mu Yu Linglan shouted sharply, her clear and loud voice was like spring thunder.The lieutenant was stupefied immediately, and looked blankly at the supreme commander of the army—Carl Rayling.

At this time Karl also showed a stunned expression, he didn't expect Mu Yu Linglan to be so angry suddenly, but he waved his hand immediately to signal the soldiers to back down.To put it bluntly, although he is the commander of this operation, he is also a bodyguard, and this priestess is the real big boss.

Seeing Priestess's angry face, the lieutenant hurriedly explained, "My lords, we can't let them go. They severely injured our mechanic in the spare parts market just now, and he is still lying in the ambulance."

"We came here today to bestow the blessings of the Rain God, not to show God's might." As she was speaking, Mu Yu Linglan suddenly changed the subject and asked sharply, "Why did you leave your post without permission! Who allowed you to leave the street? of!"

The lieutenant was speechless for a while, and looked at Karl helplessly.If Karl doesn't understand Mu Yulinglan's meaning by this time, then he will have lived for more than 20 years in vain.Although he has always defended his shortcomings, no matter how he defends his shortcomings, it is impossible for him to be unhappy with a mechanic and the priest of the temple, not to mention that the priest is still the object of his pursuit.So he first winked at the lieutenant, signaling him to leave quickly, and then said to Mu Yulinglan, "My lord, there may be a misunderstanding here, but it wouldn't be good to let them go like this."

Just as Mu Yulinglan was about to answer, Tie Zha walked back.Although he knew that the priest's status was very high, he didn't know how high it was, so he didn't want to implicate her.

"I injured people..." Tie Slag said.

"I beat it! Something happened to me! It has nothing to do with them!" Lao Niu interrupted Tie Slag's words and said loudly.

Tie Slag hurriedly pushed the old cow away and said, "Well, we injured the man."

"Please explain the whole story clearly, the Rain God is impartial and impartial." Mu Yu Linglan said at the right time.

Then, Tie Slag recounted what happened just now, and added some fuel and jealousy in the middle. In short, the other party first provoked the incident, and then fought, and each was injured in the end.When Iron Slag said "everyone has their own injuries", Lao Niu was still very cooperative and squatted on the ground, covering his lower abdomen, pretending to be in great pain.

Mu Yulinglan listened carefully to Tie Slag's explanation, and finally looked at Karl, asking for his opinion as the temporary commander.

Karl thought about it carefully for a while, and answered seriously, "Since it's a fight, both sides are at fault, go back and reflect on each other, and don't be too impulsive in the future." The business card, and then continued, "I see that you two are courageous and capable. If you are interested in joining the Silver City Defense Team, please come to me. My name is Carl Rayling."

"Okay." After Tie Slag answered, he turned to Mu Yu Linglan and asked for instructions, "My lord, can we go?"

Mu Yulinglan nodded, and Tie Zha and the others immediately turned around and left, after all, staying here would lead to many nights and dreams.

Karl frowned slightly as he watched Iron Slag leave.Tie Slag's "yes" just now, neither said to join, nor said not to join, the ambiguous attitude made him feel very uncomfortable.Facing the solicitation of this Yincheng nobleman, the other party didn't thank Dade for immediately agreeing, it's a bit ignorant.

After a while, Tie Slag walked out of Tieshan Town.He asked Lao Niu and Ye Xinling to go back first, then took a small road back to the town, and then went to the self-government meeting to find Lina.What happened today gave him a bad feeling. He was eager to improve his combat effectiveness, so he was going to let go of his masculine dignity—to borrow money from his eldest sister.

However, he wasn't very sure whether modifying Alice's body could improve combat effectiveness.But he always felt that Natasha, one of the greatest scientists of mankind, had no reason to make a fake thing out to deceive people.

After arriving at the self-government association, Tie Slag went directly to the second floor and came to Lina's office.At this time, Lina was sitting on the sofa drinking wine, with a hint of drunkenness on her reddish face.Seeing Iron Slag coming in, she patted the other side of the sofa, motioning for him to come and sit.

Tie Slag scratched his hair subconsciously, and then sat beside Lina.Lina put her arms around his shoulders, and then asked in his ear, "Baby~ little priest...is she pretty?"

When Tie Slag heard these words, he immediately rolled his eyes.It seems that in Tieshan Town, nothing can escape the eyes of the eldest sister.And he could hear the jealousy in Lina's words.So he seriously explained the ins and outs to Lina, including how he met Mu Yulinglan back then, and what happened afterwards, everything was clear. (Iron Slag didn't know that Old Man Tie originally wanted to sell Mu Yu Linglan, or that Old Man Tie changed his plan temporarily after seeing the convoy, and he didn't know that Old Man Tie was killed in order to stop the convoy. Lily Lan didn't want to tell Tie Slag, because it's impossible to explain the kindness and resentment, right and wrong.)
After listening to Tie Zha's narration, Lina opened her hands, gently hugged him into her arms, and said in a low voice, "Little Tie Zha, sister suddenly feels very lucky..."

"Why?" Tie Slag asked a little puzzled.

Lina smiled and shook her head, but did not answer.

In fact, she had already answered in her heart, but she didn't say it out loud.

"My luck is that I happened to show up when you needed me. Maybe a few years later, you won't need me anymore..."

She didn't want to tell him her true thoughts, she just wanted to watch him quietly like this, watch him grow into a towering tree, and watch him soar into the sky with full wings...

Maybe on that day, she can only look at him from a distance.

But this is enough for her...
