Looking at the crumbling state of his mansion, which can be called the most satisfying mansion in the world, he has invested countless efforts, and Lu Xi still hasn't given up that glimmer of hope:

"Trust the brothers in the construction department! There are still some rescues, and some—"

please!It is not easy for us to buy a house with full money!No matter how much it costs to repair, at least leave a complete frame!

"【嗡—咸——】"

Lu Xi's prayer obviously did not reach the other side of the magic circle, and the fourth buzz sounded unmoved.All the holy light and demonic nature in the sky converged to the same point, and with just a cursory look, one could understand how terrifying the energy level contained in it was.

Is it over?

After closing his eyes and waiting for a long time, Lu Xi, who felt that it was almost done, was mentally prepared, and quietly narrowed one eye——

"Boom!!!!!!!"

——As if he had counted the time when he opened his eyes, under the gaze of Lu Xi's eyes that instantly turned gray due to despair, the house exploded.

PS: Thank you for your support~

Chapter 146

Lucy's house blew up, literally.

The massive energy point formed by the convergence of holy light and demonic nature was located directly above the poor Mr. House. Before Lu Xi had a chance to stop it, a huge and hot energy column smashed down.

Seeing that his lovely house was silently turned into nothingness under the washing of pure energy, Lu Xi's legs softened and he fell to the ground:

"All, all over."

What is the most painful thing in life?As soon as the mortgage was paid off, the house was gone.

Although this house was bought with the full amount of money from heaven, we haven't lived in it for a year yet!It's only been less than a year!Just watching it turn into ashes like this, I, my heart hurts so much, woo woo woo! ! !

hug.

Before Lu Xi could react, a soft force came from in front of him.The next moment, his head was attached to the girl's flat belly.

"Be good, be good, Lucy won't cry~"

Gently rubbing Lu Xi's head, a faint trace of joy flashed in Yuxia's eyes, opposite to it was the extremely gentle comforting voice of Miss Saintess:

"We're sad that the house is gone. But the most important thing right now is to figure out who set it up, isn't it?"

Yu, Yuxia!True angel! ! !

Feeling an unparalleled sense of warmth and healing from Miss Saintess, Lu Xi took a deep breath, and gradually calmed down.

Yes, the house is gone, and it can never be repaired again. This is an unchangeable fact.I, as a homeowner, have no use for this useless grief.

Ah, the most important thing to do now is——

Lu Xi stared at the ruins of the original house that had become a big pit, and a ruthless look flashed in his eyes:

"Find out who the hell did all of this and beat his brains out, right?"

------------

Thousands of miles away in the imperial capital, a serious old man with white hair and beard holding a magic book in his hand suddenly sneezed without warning:

"Aqiu!"

The girl with glasses sitting across from him offered the milk tea with some worry:

"Grandpa? What's wrong with you? Feeling cold?"

"It's okay, it's okay! Don't think that after passing on the magic and intelligence to you, Grandpa, I will become weak!"

Although he complained, it can be seen from the smiling expression on the old man's face when he took the milk tea that he was very happy when he heard the care from his lovely granddaughter:

"Don't worry, it's probably someone who has no eyesight talking about grandpa again. Grandpa has been busy digging holes around the empire for years without doing anything else. Incapable of fury!"

"Oh, grandpa, you still like digging holes so much..."

Claire obviously has nothing to do with her old urchin grandpa.She pouted slightly:

"This is a bad habit! It needs to be changed! Last time you almost dug yourself into someone's pit, didn't you?"

"That, that time was an accident! Besides, Grandpa has learned a lesson. Since that time, most of the tricks Grandpa dug for people were in the form of pranks, just for fun!"

His own embarrassment was mentioned so bluntly by his granddaughter, and the old man picked up the milk tea cup a little awkwardly.When he was about to drink it, he suddenly remembered something:

"...However, if you want to talk about the [pit] that even I am not sure about, how many do you really have left?"

"Also?!"

Claire jumped up from the rocking chair in shock, her intellectual and demonic nature instantly turned on, and she looked around vigilantly: "Isn't it just around here? You said earlier, I'm easy to run."

"Don't worry, don't worry~ I know that my precious granddaughter lives in the imperial capital, and the pit closest to here is far away from Rhine City."

After closing the heavy book in his hand, the old man's expression became slightly serious:

"Strictly speaking, that is not the hole I dug. I just happened to find an ancient device that was not activated when I was outing, and then I built a manor-style [transformation + energy-gathering circle] next to it. .”

"Manor?! Is it easy?! Grandpa, how powerful are you!"

Claire's eyes widened in surprise: "Wait a minute, could it be that the 'manor' you drew my attention to—"

"Well, it was the one that was later bought by a rich adventurer."

The old man took a sip of milk tea slowly, with a smug smile on his face:

"How about it? I said that the manor must be sold, right? This is a blueprint designed by my master architect, Leonardo da Vinci. Even if it is built in a remote place like the outskirts of Rhine City, people will come to buy it .Grandpa, I am amazing~"

"...Oh? It seems that Grandpa still remembers those false fame when he was young~"

Claire lowered her head slightly, a chilling light reflected from the lens:

"I feel like I should talk to my grandma. The old story of someone pretending to be an all-round artist by relying on 'magic and intellectual' to deceive ignorant girls everywhere—"

"Don't! Don't, don't, don't!"

Hearing this, the old Mr. Da Vinci, who was still calm just now, froze in an instant. He handed out his wallet obediently: "Hush money, take it, take it as you like!"

"Humph~"

Unceremoniously accepting the wallet, under the desperate gaze of Mr. Da Vinci, Claire took out a small copper coin and stuffed it back into his hand:

"That's all for the pocket money. If it's not enough, just ask grandma for it."

...People say that girls don't want to stay in college, but my lovely granddaughter was more attracted to me when she was a child...

When Mr. Da Vinci was aggrievedly drinking milk tea, he heard Claire ask:

"Speaking of which, does Grandpa know what the consequences of the so-called [unactivated ancient device] will be if it is activated?"

Ancient things sometimes mean danger, presumably my incomprehensible grandpa should also know about it——

"Of course! I don't know!"

The old man's answer was decisive and resolute: "It is precisely because we don't know that it is more meaningful to explore. To explore and then know everything is the privilege of our knowledge holders!"

Although it sounds very passionate, you obviously just want to dig a hole and watch the fun, right?

"Cough um."

Stared at by Claire with such disdainful eyes, old Mr. Da Vinci picked up his teacup again to cover up:

"And, and. Although I don't know what the specific purpose of that device is, the energy required to activate it is not a small amount. Not to mention buying the adventurers there, even my son who is not enlightened may not It can be filled in one breath. And the energy-gathering circle I set can only convert the magic power of two people at most, where in this world can you find two freaks who can burst out at that level of energy in an instant?"

"Oh, so that's what it is."

Hearing that, Claire breathed a long sigh of relief, and subconsciously murmured, "Looks like Lu Xi also lives there. Just now I was worried that he would be affected, but what should I do? It's okay."

"Huh? [Lu Xi]?"

Hearing this somewhat familiar name, the eyes of the old urchin Da Vinci lit up.He smiled wickedly:

"Is that the kid who can form [Magic Nature · Happiness] with you? Don't tell me, grandpa has lived to such an old age, and has never seen such a sweet composite demonic nature. If my precious granddaughter has that meaning, grandpa will help you Are you going to propose a marriage?"

"I, I, I..."

It was the young girl who answered him shamelessly and angrily:

"—I'm really going to complain to grandma this time!!!"

Chapter 147 It is forbidden to randomly insert memories!

"Aqiu!"

Rubbing his nose, Lu Xi frowned puzzled.

what happened?This weird feeling of being talked about by others after talking about others...

"—Weak Weak Xi! Look!"

Before Lu Xi could think about it, Celica's surprised cry sounded from her side.The next moment, the whole manor trembled violently as if it had been given life by some great existence.

"【嗡—嗡—嗡—】"

Disturbing humming sounded quite regularly.There seems to be a faint light flickering in the place where a huge deep pit was just cut out by the energy column, and the light and darkness just fit the rhythm of the buzzing.

"Roar--"

A long cry came from the sky, and Lu Xi followed the reputation, and it was Uncle Faron who had been away for a long time, sitting firmly on the back of a vigorous red dragon:

"Hey! Lucy! What's going on here?! There's a vision in the sky and tremors in the earth. Could it be that Yuxia has finally gone berserk—"

Yushia: (tilts head) (laughs)

"Cough, cough! I didn't say anything just now."

Only then did he see Yuxia's peaceful smile, President Faron's expression froze, and he manipulated the red dragon under his crotch to slowly land beside Lu Xi and the others:

"I just came here to take a look because I felt something was wrong. What happened here?"

"I don't know."

Lu Xi shook his head honestly, and after rolling his eyes, he turned to complaining dissatisfiedly: "Speaking of which, I should ask the president this question to you? What? The safety of the house is not guaranteed at all—this is a house I bought from the Rhine City Guild, which claims to [make customers absolutely at ease]!"

Oh?I seem to have heard someone say, 'It's not Selena and Yushia's fault, why use someone else's real estate agency? '

We are not stupid!After being chopped into ashes, this house is obviously unlivable. If I don't take this opportunity to buy more books, how can I be worthy of my arrogance to buy a house with full money?

Besides, the confrontation between Pikachu and Yuxia is just an introduction, the culprit of all this is obviously the so-called 'magic circle', isn't it?I'm just shifting the responsibility to the intermediary a little bit now.

Throw the blame on the other person before the conversation begins - that's the strategy!

"...Indeed, this is some kind of activated magic circle, and it seems to have been set up there a long time ago. We didn't investigate clearly before handing over the house. This is indeed a mistake in our investigation."

As an experienced legendary adventurer, Uncle Faron's vision is obviously not inferior to Yuxia's.His eyes swept around slightly, and roughly judged the situation:

"As the president, I will not apologize to you like a real intermediary. The Rhine City Guild has a special apology department, and you can go to them to register later—there are many tricks."

Lots of tricks? ? ?

Instantly remembering what he found from the president's desk when we first met, the expression on Lu Xi's face suddenly became excited:

"You, you mean—"

A gleam [you understand] flashed in President Fallon's eyes:

"That's right, the OLs inside have a beautiful voice and sweet temperament, and they also provide a variety of dressing services. In the performance report of the guild, the income of the apology department is the highest every year!"

And such a good thing? !Apology goodjob——

"—In my opinion, it is better to investigate the situation here first. As for the follow-up work such as accepting the apology, I [I] will personally supervise it."

Just when Lu Xi wanted to discuss some details with Fallon, Yuxia's voice sounded from beside the two. It was obviously gentle as water, but for some reason it made people feel chills:

"In addition, I will truthfully tell my father what Uncle Faron said. If you are investigated by the Customs Department of the Imperial Capital, Uncle Faron, please be prepared."

"Cough... well, I see."

Watching Yuxia walk away slowly with lingering fear, Uncle Faron held Lu Xi's shoulder with a heavy expression on his face:

"—You boy, it must be very difficult at ordinary times, right?"

"Now say this?!"

Lu Xi's eyes widened: "Uncle, your apology department is going to be gone!"
