Mist cut is so cute, and Luke found himself a little fond of teasing her.
But she still had business to do, so she could only leave the room after staying with Wukiri for a while.
And the so-called business, of course, is to practice swordsmanship.
A few days before the final confrontation with the Sky Raiders, perhaps because the time was too short and the situation was serious, Luke's potential was stimulated in just three days.In this short period of time, he has raised his level of swordsmanship a bit, but
Still not enough.
"I don't know how many enemies will be waiting for me in the future. I must continue to work hard." Luke thought in his heart.
Although he pursues the idea of basically not getting involved in anything, Luke finds that no matter what it is now, as long as it involves Mondry or some other things, it is difficult for him to avoid it.And those who dare to confront Mondry and the others are often particularly difficult. Although Mondry will compensate himself every time, it really makes Luke very tired.
It is impossible to draw boundaries with Mondry, and it is also impossible to avoid trouble. The only way left is to continue to force yourself to move forward.
In this way, training training training training... Luke's noon and afternoon time were all spent on training.It wasn't until dark and the moon rose that Luke dragged his tired body out of the underground training ground.
"Beep..."
After recognizing Luke standing at the door, the steel gate controlled by artificial intelligence slowly opened, revealing the backyard shrouded in white moonlight.Luke walked out with a blank face. With the sound of the door closing, drops of sweat dripped from his forehead and soaked into his clothes.
Within sight, there are quite a lot of people in the backyard at this time, most of them are sitting around the campfire and chatting.These simple bonfires can be lit at any time, just for this time, and you can build a cooking pot by the way.
"..." At first, I wanted to avoid attracting other people's attention, so I hurried back to take a shower.However, just as Luke turned around, he happened to see Koda coming out of the gate of the mansion, and the two of them just happened to meet each other's eyes.The latter's face was immediately filled with the usual peaceful and comforting smile, and he walked over immediately,
"Captain, I was still wondering where you went just now, so it turned out to be here."
"Do you have anything to do with me?" Luke raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face, his sharp eyes caught the slight unnaturalness in Ke Da's expression, the latter's face was slightly embarrassed, and said: "Sure enough, I still can't hide it from you , Captain. In fact, this is the case, Supervisor Meggis has come, and she said she wants to see you and has the latest report on the battle situation."
Meggis...
Just hearing this name gave Luke a headache. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and asked Koda, "She should know what almost killed me last time, right? What should I do now?" Take her word for it?"
"I think what happened last time was just an accident, Captain." Ke Da's face became serious, and he clasped his hands in front of him, and said, "I've heard about what happened that time, but the higher-ups also treated Mejis Du The supervisor conducted a test, and the result was that she was not a spy, and the last oolong was most likely an accident."
"It's better to be like this. This is the first time I have suffered such a loss at the hands of a senior supervisor."
Luke was right.In her previous life, she had dealt with many senior supervisors and senior military supervisors.Although these people are ruthless and cruel, but
There is nothing to say about the professional level, the intelligence accuracy rate is almost 100%, and it is even more impossible to make such a mistake that may kill people.It was the first time for Luke to experience something like Meggis's doing, which made her inevitably doubt Meggis' level of ability.
"Please give her another chance, Captain." Ke Da looked at Luke seriously, and his tone was more pleading.Luke could tell that Koda was also speaking for Meggis, probably with some instructions.
"Well, I will..."
Nodding, Luke tried his best not to look so cold.She also didn't want to have a deadlock with these people, especially those who had a good relationship with Koda in the past life, and who could call for help if something happened, Luke would still give a lot of face.As for Meggis himself, the person who represents Mondry's meaning, Luke still feels a little shameless.
After adjusting his state and washing his face in the back kitchen, Luke came to the stairs all the way to the 4th floor and came to the office door.She opened the door and entered, and it was Meggis who was sitting calmly on the sofa not far away.When he heard the sound of the door opening, Meggis turned his head and looked over, and when he found Luke, he stood up immediately,
"Good evening, Master Glutton."
"Good evening, Supervisor Meggis." Luke said, closing the door behind him, and then sat down opposite Meggis. "I'm glad to see you again, Overseer Meggis, it's been a long time since we last met."
When saying this, Luke tried his best to maintain a kind smile, looking extremely peaceful and completely free of any dissatisfaction.Seeing this, Meggis was a little surprised, put his hands flat on his lap, and said, "Master Glutton, you... I thought you would be very angry."
"We are not children anymore, Meggis. Let the past be the past, I will act as if nothing happened, but at the same time, I hope you can be more... more cautious."
"Of course." Meggis nodded hastily. The soft, slightly curly brown hair shone slightly, slightly covering Meggis's delicate, white and tender face, and at the same time making her firm and mature under the round-rimmed glasses. His eyes became brighter.
"Tell me about your situation, Meggis."
"Okay." Meggis nodded, and then began to speak solemnly, "Lord Oyin asked me to tell you. Our current battle situation is a major victory due to the lack of sky raiders in the free armed forces." .We have already defeated the armed forces of Freedom on the main battlefield on the Terra continent. We have also achieved sporadic victories on the battlefields of other worlds. According to the current situation, according to the war chess of our think tank We're going to have total victory a few weeks from now."
"Isn't this good?" Luke didn't feel any surprise. Mondry's strength has always been like this. Even if some of his wealth was taken away by the Freedom Armed Forces, his strength should not be underestimated.That's why, Luke really didn't want to tear his face with them, and it was really hard to end well against Mondry.
What's more, Luke now has a family, or a family's weakness, and he doesn't want to go against Mondry.
"Yes, this is a victory that belongs to all of us. At the same time, we have also discovered the source of the secret crystal used by the Freedom Armed Forces. It is very likely that it comes from the void relic they found on the continent of Terra. And these relics seem to come from a vanished empire, and have something to do with a place you have been to before, Mr. Gluttonous."
"You mean... Ke Ling?" Luke frowned. Meggis' words reminded her of the first void relic found on the continent of Terra a long time ago. The name of the buried city was Ke Ling.And this city once belonged to a very large empire.
What comes to mind along with it is a title.
blood blade.

Chapter 220 Three Intelligence and Suspicion
"Mmm... Master Taotie, your memory is really good. Indeed, the capital of that empire is named Ke Ling." Meggis reached into his pocket and took out a document, and put it on the Pushed it to Luke on the table in front of him.The latter picked it up and found that there were a few photos mixed in it. When he looked carefully, he suddenly found that all the photos on the photos were deep caves, and the bottomless darkness inside seemed like an abyss.
"Which place is this?" Luke looked up at Meggis.
"A passage in one of the main areas of the empire." Meggis raised her eyes, her calm tone and serious demeanor made her look professional and skilled, "Our people tracked down the relevant personnel of Liberty Armed Forces and controlled the The tunnel they dug and the surrounding area. According to the information of our spies, the secret crystal they used came from below. But..."
At the end of the sentence, Meggis' expression became serious again, "We heard that they encountered some difficult troubles down there, and the exploration process was interrupted because of this."
"So you want me to take someone down?"
Hearing this, Meggis shook his head, "No. Our think tanks agree that it is time to abandon the war and allocate part of our troops, especially if our main force goes to hunt for treasures.
It's an unwise move. Before we really win, we won't have any practical actions. It's just that we won't let the freely armed people go down. "
"Really..." Luke retracted his body, and naturally leaned on the sofa behind him, "Whatever you want, what else is there?"
"Hmm..." Meggis had a thoughtful look on his face, paused for a moment, as if trying to organize his words, and then said slowly, "First of all, there is a bad news. That is, our spies got the information, the Sky Raiders Liberty Armed Forces' death seems to be intentional, and they probably wanted to use her death to do something, but we don't know the specifics yet."
Was Skyraider's death a deliberate act by Freedom Armed Forces?
Hearing this news, Luke couldn't help being surprised, and she really didn't understand the benefit of the death of the Sky Raider to the free arms.But there is no information on Mondry's side, and it is naturally difficult for Luke to guess the news.
"Then... Master Taotie, this is a small favor from our side, please accept it."
Meggis snapped her fingers, and the power of nothingness began to flow rapidly around her.Luke was keenly aware that this force tore apart the walls of some spaces, and then brought something from certain places.And in the next second, the space behind Meggis was uncovered like a scar, and a box of well-bound unknown objects wrapped in tarpaulin fell into her arms.Meggis stepped forward slightly, put these things on the table and pushed them to Luke.
"........."
Silently opening these tightly wrapped things, Luke was a little surprised when he saw what was wrapped inside.Because these tightly packed things contained tube after tube of golden tears flowing with dazzling luster!
Counting carefully, Luke found that there were exactly 100 tubes of these golden tears! !Moreover, the capacity of one tube is almost the same as the Golden Tears she got before, almost the same.
Looking up at Meggis, Luke's tone became a little more serious, "These don't seem to be in our agreement, are you really going to give these to me?"
100 tubes of Golden Tears is really not a small amount, the amount of Golden Tears that Luke had gotten before did not add up to that much.
Hearing this, Meggis smiled slightly and said: "We have never been stingy with our allies, especially those who have provided us with great help. Mondry will be happy to share the results of the battle with them."
"Since you have said so, then I will be disrespectful."
Mondry's generosity indeed exceeded Luke's expectations, but others said it was a gift, so Luke naturally had no reason not to take it, and just accepted it.
And not only that, the rewards that Meggis brought over and delivered to Luke this time are more than that.It also includes a large number of PTs, as well as some advanced military equipment of Mondry, which may be more or less useful, but they are all hard goods.
For a split second, Luke had some illusions that Mondry was actually pretty good.When he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but secretly ridiculed himself that he was too easy to buy.Finally, after taking the Junyi from Luke on behalf of L84, Meggis also left the manor and returned to Mondry.
Meggis was gone, and Luke had no reason to stay in the office.After taking good care of Jinlei, she patted her clothes and left the office.But as soon as he left the office, he saw Aegis standing by the door with a serious face, staring at Luke, "Master Glutton, good evening."
"Good evening, uh...what's the matter with you? Aigis." Seeing that Aegis seemed to be a bit off, Luke couldn't help becoming vigilant, and asked cautiously.The latter snorted coldly, "Lord Taotie, I don't mean to offend, but you won't be confused by that bitch, right?"
"Bitch?"
"I'm referring to Meggis!" Aegis straightened up, with a look of madness on her face, a few blood vessels even appeared on her face that was as white as paper, and she almost gritted her teeth said,
"There is definitely something wrong with that bitch! There is definitely something wrong! But Lord Yula has been favoring her and helping her speak in front of Lord Aoyin. If it weren't for this, she would have been kicked out for dereliction of duty. She, even Yura-sama, I think there is a big problem! Most of them are spies!"
Seeing Aigis' excited look, Luke quickly stretched out his hand and said, "Calm down, please speak slowly? You say they are spies, do you have any evidence?"
Hearing this, Aigis' originally excited expression suddenly shrugged, "I didn't."
"Uh..." Seeing this, Luke didn't know what to say for a while, and asked with a worried expression, "Then where do you suspect your basis from?"
"Feeling! My feeling tells me something is definitely wrong with her!"
feel…
Luke couldn't help but fell into thought for a moment.Indeed, there is something extraordinary about many of the people at Mondry, some even supernatural.For example, Pez's foresight is almost like opening a hook, and can accurately predict most of the dangers.And she's not alone, there are many Mondries with similar abilities.
But Aegis...
Truth be told, Luke didn't know whether to trust her or not.
Chapter 220 Four Special People
"..." I took a serious look at Aegis. With Luke's years of experience in observing words and expressions, he didn't see any signs of lying. There is a high probability
It wasn't Aigis who said it out of his own will.but…
"I believe you, Aigis." Luke's face softened, he put his hand on Aegis' shoulder, and said softly, "But we still need more evidence. Otherwise, it's just what you say, yes No one will believe us. If you notice something strange, how about trying to collect some substantive evidence? "
"Master Glutton..." Seeing that Luke was willing to believe in himself, Aegis couldn't help being moved seven points more, and nodded quickly, "Well, I've suspected something is wrong with her for a long time, so I'll do it now!" Saying, Aigis turned around in a hurry, and then left the scene at the speed of light.
Seeing the other party disappear from his field of vision, Luke couldn't help but sighed in his heart, "I'm not bragging, am I? I hope she doesn't make any big news."
In fact, to be honest, Luke also felt that there was something wrong with Meggis, but this feeling was not very strong and very subtle.And the most important thing is that Meggis is from Mondry, and Luke really has no right to take care of her affairs, and he doesn't bother to take care of her.If it wasn't for the fact that he almost killed himself last time, Luke's attitude towards Meggis would not have changed in the slightest.
The worst possibility among them is undoubtedly that Meggis is a spy from a certain side, so the problem is very serious.But the possibility is also very small, because Mondry's review agency is not vegetarian, it is impossible to let this kind of person take up the important position of senior supervisor, and it is even less likely that it has not been discovered for so long.
So after much deliberation, Luke decided to put this matter aside and leave it alone.
After returning to his room and taking a shower, Luke returned to the office and took Jinlei to his room.Sitting on the soft bed, Luke looked at the scattered golden tears in his bosom, felt the power of nothingness flowing in the golden tears, and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
"I haven't felt this satisfied in a long time."
Golden tears are treasures.According to rumors, it is the discharge from the corner of the eye of a fallen pioneer.There are also rumors that the Golden Tears are tiny fragments of the bodies of fallen Heralds, perhaps as small as tens of billionths of them.But no matter what, the ability of Golden Tears to directly enhance the power of nothingness is beyond doubt.
The ability to absorb a bottle and increase a bottle.The ability to absorb two bottles and increase two bottles.This thing is so amazing.
Of course, the higher the attainment of the power of nothingness, the lower the effect of absorption.At Luke's current level, the effect of absorbing Golden Tears is only half of what it used to be, or even less.But if it is given to other people, then the effect will be particularly significant.only…
"Although it may be very effective to absorb it for others, it is impossible for me not to take a bottle. Moreover, the environment is becoming more and more severe now. Even with my strength, it is difficult to guarantee that I can defeat the enemy stably. So even a small improvement , I can't give up, I still have to take the lead." Luke thought so in his heart.
It's not that Luke is stingy, it's just that the current environment is such that Luke must ensure that his strength is steadily improving so that he can deal with more dangers.If all these golden tears were given to other people in the family, it would be difficult for those people to take on the responsibility of protecting the whole family, and they would be more likely to be killed indiscriminately, so Luke still had to keep these opportunities for himself.
Taking out the mobile phone from his pocket, Luke skillfully dialed Pez's number with one hand, and when the call was connected, she said to the other side, "Come over to my room quickly, Pez, I have something important to tell you .”
"Ah? Something important?" Pez's tone on the other side of the phone, which seemed a bit lazy, suddenly became clearer, "I'll be right over." She hung up the phone after speaking.Luke calmly stuffed the phone back into his pocket, and then sat silently waiting for the other party to come to the door.
Only 2 minutes later, Pez hurriedly opened the door and walked in. After closing the door, he came to Luke beside the bed and asked with a serious face, "What's the matter Luke? The important thing you said is ?”
"This." Luke looked down at the golden tears in his arms.Pez took advantage of the situation to look over, and suddenly his face became a little surprised, "This...where did you get so much?"
"A 'gift' from Mondry, saying thank you for what we've done before."
"Ha... That's really good." Pez put his surprise on his face, took a chair from one side and sat down flatly, "So you want to ask how to divide it?"
"Yes, I'm going to take half of this. You 25, I'm 25, how about it?" Luke asked straight to the point.She and Pez have had decades of friendship, so her words are relatively straightforward.After hearing this, the latter shrugged noncommittally, "I don't care at all."
"Then take it." Luke said as he took out 25 tubes from the golden tears in his arms, and then handed them to Pez.The latter looked at Jinlei in front of him, curled his lips, seemed to think for a while, and finally waved his hand to refuse, "Forget it, Lao Lu, I don't think I need these, so I'll give them all to you."
"Hey..." Luke looked at Pez with a helpless expression, "Don't be like this buddy, now is not the time to shirk, you have been helping me all this time, and you deserve it."
"I..." Pez hesitated for a moment, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and said, "I know, old Lu, I know what you mean. But I don't help you for any other boring reasons, but because we
It's family, that's how family members are.I don't need you to pay me, and it's... well, it won't do me any good if I take it, and it's you, not me, who are in the fight right now. "
"Pez, really... just take it, don't say so much."
Seeing that Pez didn't intend to take it, it was naturally impossible for Luke to take it back.She was going to force it to Pez, but no matter what she said, Pez would only take 10 tubes, and the remaining 15 tubes she said "you are more useful than me, Luke, give them all to you, don't take them anymore." Give it to someone else."
Pez has always been a very stubborn advocate, and Luke couldn't resist her, so he had to accept it.But Luke didn't use all of these for herself. She evenly distributed the 15 tubes to Lorena, Ding Yan, and Shiya, increasing their combat power a bit.
As for the remaining other half, Luke took out 10 tubes, and handed over the remaining 40 tubes to Minlong and Sakura Ci of the East Hall and West Hall, and asked them to distribute as evenly as possible to other people ( The few insiders of Zhongtang are also counted).In order to ensure that there are no vicious incidents, Luke asked Lorena and Shiya to pay attention to the process of their respective assignments.
After doing all this, Luke returned to his room and absorbed the Golden Tears with ease.
Although this process is not oral, it is not troublesome.Just unscrew the bottle cap, and drop the thick, dazzling golden tears on your mark.And with every drop, Luke could feel the faint purple light on his mark become brighter.It swayed and stood out like a bonfire in the dark.
The absorbed Golden Tears were like firewood thrown into the fire, absorbed by the imprint on the wrist almost instantly.Feeling that the power in the imprint became full, Luke couldn't help but let out a relaxed voice, "Huh..."
This feeling is very good, bit by bit... it gets stronger...
After absorbing 25 tubes of golden tears, the power filling his body caused some changes in Luke's body again.Her bones swelled, her muscles elongated, and her already towering and astonishing body became even more terrifying and oppressive again.
Standing in front of the mirror and looking at it, Luke was not surprised to find that his height had returned to more than two meters.My figure in the mirror does not look very strong, and I have nothing to do with obesity. It is most appropriate to describe it as tall and straight.The blond hair fell slightly to the shoulders, lying like a lazy elf.The eyes are like lights in the night sky, piercing and dazzling.
And I don't know if it's an illusion, but Luke feels that his face, which is not bad, seems to have become more delicate...
But this is of no use.
"It feels like going back to the past..." Luke reached out and touched his face, feeling emotional in his heart.
