Seeing that Meggis and his party all left, Luke didn't feel relieved, but felt a strong sense of unease.It was as if something bad was about to come.
Like a dark cloud...

Chapter 440 Three Departures at the Same Time
Back in the village, Luke originally wanted to talk to Pez about Andrea.But when she thought about what happened just now, she couldn't help being a little worried about Evel, so she first came to the hut of Evel and Ageye.
The earthen house that had been in disrepair for a long time was devastated by the wind and rain, and a big hole was broken in the roof. Fortunately, Minlong brought people to repair it a few days ago.The wooden grid windows are now decayed, and huge spider webs are entwined on them, and a dead spider mummy hangs down at the bottom, gently swaying with the breeze.
As soon as he came outside the house, Luke heard Agayye's surprised voice inside: "What? Why are you leaving now?"
"They said that something happened at Mondry's headquarters and they had to go back to solve it." Evel's helpless voice of explanation came at the same time.
"Well... Shall I go in now?" Luke suddenly hesitated, wondering if he should go in now.
After hesitating outside, Luke made up his mind and walked in.Pushing open the concealed door, Luke came into the back room.Evel and Ageye, who were still arguing, stopped immediately when they saw Luke.Evel turned to face Luke with some doubts, and asked, "Master Glutton, what's the matter?"
"No, I'm just here to check on you guys, I'm sorry about what just happened," Luke explained.
"This has nothing to do with you at all, Master Glutton." Eivor smiled bitterly, "I actually realized a long time ago that it would not be so smooth, but I didn't expect Mondry to have such a sudden accident. To be honest, before I was shocked when I heard the news."
"Is this true? Master Glutton." Agayer still looked at Luke in disbelief, "How could such a big thing happen to Mondry? Are all those warlords trash?"
"From Meggis' expression, it doesn't look like it's a fake. It should be something serious." Luke said with a worried tone, "I'm afraid you have to prepare for the worst."
"........."
Hearing this, Evel and Agayye looked at each other, and fell silent in unison.After a while, Eivor looked at Luke with a solemn expression, and said, "Master Taotie, I understand what you mean. So I think... I shouldn't continue to blame others here, I think I and It's time for Agayye to leave here and find Shasha by his own actions."
"Are you leaving too?" Luke didn't feel any surprise, sighed softly and said, "It's fine, but you must pay attention to yourself, so you don't die."
"Thank you for your help all the time, Mr. Taotie." Eivor bowed solemnly to Luke to express his gratitude, and Agaye also expressed his gratitude to Luke from the heart.
Luke has nothing to do with them, but he has been helping them find their kidnapped sister.Even at the risk of his life fighting a very powerful enemy, Luke did not abandon them.Evel cherishes this kindness very much.
Because they had no luggage, they
The two quickly packed their bags, and then, under Luke's watchful eye, they left the village in the car Luke gave them.
Before leaving, Evel said that he would repay Luke's kindness one day in the future.But for this, Luke didn't take it too seriously, he just asked them to take care of themselves first.
Seeing that Eivor and Agaye disappeared from sight, Luke couldn't help but sighed, "Gone again..."
Now in the village, all the Mondries and all the robots are gone, leaving only their family members and her, Luke.
Without these troublesome people, Luke originally thought that he should be very happy, but now he can't be happy at all.
She suddenly recalled an idiom "the lips are dead and the teeth are cold", and now it is the conservatives of Mondry who suffer, will it be her turn in the next moment?
I don't know, but Luke thinks he should be prepared.
Back in the village, Luke went straight to the door of Pez's hut.Seeing that the door was unlocked, she didn't go in directly out of politeness, but shouted from the outside to the inside: "Pei? Are you awake? It's time to get up."
"Wait for a while, old Lu." Pez's vague voice came from inside, probably washing up.
After waiting for a while, Pez, who looked energetic, came out of the house and came to Luke.Her neat blue hair was draped over her shoulders, and her clean and delicate face was as angry as the rising sun, and her golden eyes hidden under the sunglasses looked very charming.
"What's the matter? I just heard some voices outside." Pez asked.
"Meggis is gone, there is a coup d'état in Mondry, Sylvant has stepped down, and Eivor and the others have also left." Luke replied as briefly as possible.
Pez's originally happy expression froze suddenly, and said, "You're not kidding, are you? Sylvant stepped down?"
"Of course I'm not joking. Meggis told me. She looks very anxious, and she doesn't look like a liar at all."
"Damn, what do we do now? I'm afraid we have to get out of here quickly."
"Don't worry, wait and see what happens, and we still have some things to do here..."
After a lot of effort, Luke told Pez about Andrea.After the other party heard that Sylvant had stepped down, he had been very worried and told Luke to leave this mess and leave here quickly.Luke knew what she was worried about. Pez was worried that the new radical party would deal with people like herself. Of course, Luke had thought of this possibility.
But the problem is, this is not good to say, because Luke has never dealt with radicals at all.
That's why Luke decided to wait and see what happened, at least wait until he finished his work here before leaving.Although Pez was very worried, he slowly stabilized under Luke's comfort.
Even if the worst-case scenario does happen, Luke is confident enough to lead everyone out of the sky, so he is not particularly worried about this.What she is most worried about is other possibilities, such as the radicals cooperating with other... not so good forces, and then doing stupid things crazy, which is the worst in a sense.
After discussing with each other, the two decided to go to Lingzhou to make preparations for Andrea's birth after breakfast.Most of the materials are easy to find, and they are all things that can be seen every day, except for one of course, that is the so-called "soulless person".

Chapter 440 Four Considerations for the Future
Putting all these news behind for a while, Luke pretended to be the same as usual.Back at the cafeteria, after greeting the early risers Suzuki Ibuki and Suzuki Chimi, I helped them prepare breakfast for the entire family.
The sunlight became more obvious as the sun rose, and the sound of insects began to be heard one after another in the forest. In this hot weather, even the birds standing on the branches seemed a little listless, chirping It made two decent calls, then flapped its wings and flew away.The standing trees looked stronger and greener than yesterday, full of vitality and a thriving scene.
Today is actually looking pretty good, if not for the disturbing news.
Taking his own food, he sat down in front of an empty table and chair. Luke originally wanted to spend this time quietly alone, but at this moment a figure suddenly appeared beside him.Turning her head to look, it was Bai Yashan Hong Shili with a somewhat embarrassed expression. She pinched the end of her hair with one hand and said cautiously, "That... Luke, can I sit next to you?"
"..." After a moment of silence, Luke showed his usual smile, "Of course, you can sit here."
Although she felt a little grudge against Hong Shili because of the previous incident, but Luke is not the kind of person who will pester a single point, she is actually quite tolerant, and she didn't care so much at this time.
The two sat down at the table facing each other. At first they just ate their breakfast without talking.It wasn't until halfway through eating that Hong Shili raised his head,
Said to Luke: "Luke...well, I'm sorry about Rina. I should have told you earlier at that time, but I was worried that you would go...kill Rina, so I didn't tell you, sorry."
Hearing this, Luke also looked at Hong Shili, with an unexpectedly flat expression, and said softly: "Forget it, it's been a long time since that happened, and I accept your apology. But I also have one thing to think about." I want to ask you, Hong Shili."
"what's up?"
"Has Rina ever looked for you?" Luke asked straight to the point.
Hearing this question, Hong Shili's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, he lowered his head and said, "Well, she has been looking for me almost all the time... It's just that I never replied to her."
"Really?" Luke sighed, "I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart, Hong Shili. I love you, there is no doubt about it. But my love for you does not extend to your family. So when When your family members do some stupid actions, I will tolerate as much as possible, but I will never tolerate endlessly, especially some things that are absolutely intolerable. Do you understand?"
"I know..." Hong Shili's face became a little disappointed, "I know this is all her problem."
Seeing Hong Shili's expression seemed a little lost, Luke couldn't help sighing in his heart, then stood up and stretched out his hand, touched her head under Hong Shili's surprised gaze, and said, "Come on, I've never really I really wanted to blame you. It's just that sometimes you don't tell me anything, and I'm really a little angry, that's all."
"So... Luke, do you mean to forgive me?"
Hearing this, Luke felt a little dumbfounded, and said, "As I said just now, I never really wanted to blame you, Hong Shili. I was just a little angry before, so you don't have to think too much." But immediately, Luke's face became cold again, "But... you must take good care of your little sister. Things like what happened before will never happen again. I don't want to do something to hurt you, Hong Shili .”
"Uh-huh……"
Seeing that Luke's expression became a little horrified, Hong Shili turned pale and nodded quickly.
In this way, the two settled their suspicions, and spent the breakfast time happily as if they had returned to their previous love.As far as Luke is concerned, what she just said is indeed true. The reason why she was very impatient with Hong Shili before was because she was a little angry and didn't really want to talk to him.But to be honest, Luke really didn't want to blame her.
After all, Luke knows very well that Hong Shili is definitely on his side, so what else is there to hold on to?
After breakfast, Luke wanted to rush to the city with Pez to prepare materials.But at the same time, Ta and Monetaka found her and reported the previous noble banquet, saying that the banquet would be held this morning.After hearing the news, Luke hurriedly asked Ta and Mochu if she was ready?The other party seemed very confident to agree, and claimed that she could give all of this to her, and she would "perfectly complete it".
Out of trust in Tahe, Luke gave her full authority over this matter, and he went to work on the ceremony.
When he came to the parking place and got in the car, Pez sat silently in the driving position, started the car and slowly drove it out of the village.
The road outside the village was always muddy, and the vehicles swayed up and down. The muddy water stained the bright surface, and it was firmly embedded in the gaps in the tires.You have to pay attention from time to time, otherwise the vehicle may be in danger of getting stuck in the mud.
Looking at the scenery outside the car window, Luke was not in the mood to speak at first, but at this moment, she heard Pez's voice next to her: "Old Lu?" Turning around, Pez was staring at her side, Luke Can't help but ask: "What's wrong?"
"Have you thought about the future? What do we do next?" Pez asked.
"I...I don't know, but after we finish what we should do in this city, let's find a hidden place to hide. Mondry can't stand up now, we have to rely on ourselves now."
"To be honest, I'm worried about the new person who came to power now. We don't know them at all. God knows what they will do." There is a soothing music sound, "And Kostenburg, the iron-masked public servant, if you let them know that this kind of thing happened in Mondry, I think they will take this opportunity to attack."
"It's quite possible, but...you can't tell right now."
"You just think I'm talking in my sleep, I really hope so." Pez said, seeming a little lost in his words.
And in Luke's heart, he could more or less know Pez's state of mind.She also has some confusion
What will the future...be like?

Chapter 440 Preparation for the Fifth Ceremony
(Thanks for the votes, all, much appreciated)
As the vehicle came to Lingzhou City, Luke had to put aside these miscellaneous thoughts first, and turned his head to focus on
down to business.
She first went to Duan Xi to get her reward, and the money was exactly as he said, very large.In that small, luxurious room, Duan Xi, dressed in leather and leather shoes, was very satisfied that none of Hongchen and those people came back alive. Ke is willing to work under his own.
Of course, Luke directly rejected this invitation.Although Duan Xi admired Luke's ability very much, he didn't force it, and he gave up this idea when he knew that the other party was unwilling to join him.
When he took the money and left, Duan Xi reminded him a little bit, saying that Xue's family might be under strict investigation in the near future, and told Luke to be careful.
From the mouth of the other party, Luke learned that the city was controlled by four ancient families, namely the Xue family, the Zhao family, the Wang family and the Lin family.They have controlled the lifeline of the city from the very beginning of its establishment, and they are an out-and-out bureaucratic class with real power.
It was precisely because of seeing the disgusting side of these old things that Duan Xi hated them so much.
It's just that these things don't have much to do with Luke. Hongchen dies as soon as he dies, and Luke is really not afraid of the other party making trouble.If the other party really dares to do this, then... the consequences can be expected.
After taking the money and leaving, Luke met up with Pez who was waiting outside the market, and began to prepare the props for Andrea's birth.
There are 8 types of these props, including ashes with several years of history, bright and beautiful silk, clean water, a stone polished into a disc shape, blood of a quiet and peaceful person, red-hot charcoal, and snake scales And the most critical soulless people.
Among them, clean water, silk, snake scales, red-hot charcoal, and polished stones are relatively easy to prepare. The more troublesome ones are the blood of this so-called quiet and peaceful person, ashes that are several years old, and soulless people.
Andrea also specifically emphasized that these props must meet the requirements perfectly, otherwise they will not be effective.Just like this ashes, you can't grab ashes from the ground and use them back. It must be qualified and old.
"What about Lao Lu? How about we divide the work?"
Luke, who was sitting in the car, was a little troubled, and Pez, who was sitting next to him in the driver's seat, asked tentatively, "Isn't it easier to do this way?"
Hearing this, Luke also felt that it made sense, and said: "Well, it's okay, then let's divide these equally. Pez, you go and prepare water, silk, charcoal and the blood of the peaceful people, and leave the rest to I."
"Okay, but who will drive this car? Are we going to split up?" Pez asked.
"Come on, I still have some money on me, at worst, just wait for a taxi." Luke voluntarily retreated.For her, it didn't matter whether she took a car or not, Luke was used to walking.
"Then it's settled like this. Good brother, I will bring you some roast chickens when I come back."
"Do things seriously first."
"…………"
The two chatted a few more words, and Luke, who had long been accustomed to Pez's embarrassing words, was calm in his heart.She got out of the car, and after watching Pez leave, she began to prepare her own things.
It is very simple to prepare things by yourself, that is, ash, stones, snake scales and soulless people.
I looked at the city map with my mobile phone. Luke originally wanted to see if there was a stonemason's shop in this city, but he couldn't find it after searching.She could only settle for the next best thing, and went to a tombstone shop not far away to try it out.
When he heard Luke's slightly weird request, the owner of the tombstone shop seemed very puzzled, but under the temptation of money, he still took out his handicraft to make a disc-shaped stone.
Luke took a rough look. Although the stone was a little rough, it met the requirements and must be usable.
Snake scales are even simpler, because in the city Luke can often meet street vendors, the kind of people who carry goods on a pole and walk around the city to sell them.Most of them are farmers from the countryside, without good tools, they can only be sold in this crude way.
But the advantage is that these people often carry some things that are not available in the city, such as the fur of prey or fresh meat.Luke was lucky enough to meet an old man who sold snake wine. Although the man was curious about why Luke wanted snake scales, he didn't ask much.
After giving the money, Luke got his wish from the old man to get the snake scales that the other party didn't need and planned to throw away.
"In this way, there are only two items left..."
Carefully wrapping the snake scale in cloth, Luke put it back in his pocket, looked around, and planned to start looking for the next thing.
She is now on the streets of Lingzhou, a city that is still lifeless.The venomous sun floated in the sky, and the sun fell on the ground like the fire feathers of Phoenix, which was extremely hot and uncomfortable.A little bit of sunlight penetrates the green and tall sanitation trees, and falls on the ordinary brick streets. On both sides of the street are a lot of closed restaurants, and there are many places selling mahjong machines.
Luke has never been able to understand why there are so many mahjong machines in such a small place.If you get a little closer, you can see that many old men and women are playing mahjong inside.
Even high-rise buildings seem a little weak in this kind of place. Looking up at the tall buildings that have not been built in the distance, Luke also
I don't know exactly what was built there, but I saw a banner hanging outside: "Building is not hard, I am proud. Swing a sledgehammer and build a high wall. Don't stop, work hard."
"What the hell is this promoting?" Luke was a little confused.
Luke felt that he might not understand what the world was like, so he didn't think much about it.She put her mind back on her phone and located the only mental hospital in the city.
She planned to get the soulless man first.This so-called soulless person has also been explained before, but it is actually a person whose consciousness has fallen into a permanent coma like a vegetative person.
