He is naturally outstanding among ordinary people, otherwise he would not have been selected by the Lilith through multiple tests.
But that was only among ordinary people. For the old gentleman Oakland, he was just an ordinary young man who was no different from any other mortals.
It was no different from when he first saw him in the dream. If there hadn't been a face exactly like his that held him down, he wouldn't have remembered this ordinary face.
Too ordinary.
Loric seemed to have just woken up from sleep, and he was still a little confused.
The old gentleman was not used to this kind of young man looking careless, let alone having beaten him with this face. Subconsciously, the wrinkles on his forehead became more dense.
"Lorick, your Excellency has something to ask you." The first mate spoke up.
Rorik glanced at the old gentleman blankly: "Hello, how can I help you?"
Oakland looked at Rorick and said, "Young man, how did you sleep last night?"
Facing such a nonsensical question, Rorick was even more confused, but after a signal from the first mate on the side, he reacted and answered: "I slept well, sir."
"Did you dream?"
"dream?"
"Yes, to be precise, it should be a nightmare." The old gentleman tried.
Rorick shook his head: "No, I slept deeply and didn't dream. Even if I did, I forgot."
The old gentleman fell into silence, and then made insinuations from various directions, hoping to find some outlet, but the final result was only disappointment for him.
"I said that he is a good boy. You may have misjudged him, or the monster you know borrowed his appearance, that's all." The first mate said.
The words already revealed the intention of seeing off the guests. They have already cooperated where they should, and it would be a bit of a loss of face for the spirit species to be so messy.
The old gentleman was helpless.
He actually has other methods, such as directly attacking this young man. No matter how good the disguise is, it may be difficult to maintain it when his life is in danger.
But the first officer on the side is watching eagerly, and the Lilith's protection mechanism has not yet been discovered.
Taking action on his own will only instantly bring the relationship between him, the August family behind him, and the Lilith to a freezing point.
Normally, the old gentleman would not care about this at all, and the Augustus family would not care about it at all. How many people on the entire continent can be taken seriously by the Augustus family and talk to them as equals?
The Lilith is certainly not.
But now the situation is very bad. The matter in the dream has not been revealed. Thanks to this, he also got a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg inside the Lilith.
The wife and young lady are still on this ship. This is his home field, so he can't make an attack after all.
It was uncomfortable to feel restricted everywhere, and the old gentleman's mood dropped again.
"Perhaps I really saw it wrong. I'm sorry to bother you, so I'll take my leave." The old gentleman said a word and turned around to leave.
The first mate said a few words to Lorrick and then asked him to go back to rest, while he followed the old gentleman in the name of seeing him off.
Lorrick looked at the two figures walking away and scratched the back of his head in confusion.
Today is really strange.
He closed the door, returned to the room, sat down, and continued to enjoy his already cold breakfast.
But he didn't know that someone was already sitting on the sofa opposite him.
Aaron crossed his legs, still sitting elegantly, and looked at Loric in front of him.
"He must be the sailor Ye Zuxi and the others planned to identify. He looks harmless to humans and animals." Xing Liuli expressed her thoughts.
Hirimu nodded and expressed the same idea.
To be honest, I really can't tell how powerful Ye Zuxi can be to suppress him for a short period of time.
"No, his heart is actually quite restless right now." Aaron said suddenly.
Looking at Rorick's natural appearance, Aaron's eyes touched far more than just his surface, but also the depths of his spirit and soul...
"Of course you have to pay a price for hunting. Surrender to the rules of dreams and be patient until the best moment for hunting. In the dream where scarlet is suppressed and closed during the day, the remaining will can emerge. It seems to be the same,
In fact, it is just a pile of old residue." Alon's tone was leisurely, but in the ears of the more emotional Xing Liuli, it was a little sad.
While Loric was eating, he happened to receive a call from his family.
"Hey, Mom! Hey, I have a day off today and am having breakfast. Haha, I went to bed a little late yesterday. It's okay, it's not too late. I have a big appetite now. If I have breakfast later, I can still eat lunch. Yes... um...
…It’s a good place here, and my colleagues take good care of me…”
Aaron and his party watched this heartwarming scene quietly, but Xing Liuli had already clenched her fists.
This sunny young man is already just a dregs.
"How long can he last?" Hirimu asked in a low voice.
Aaron replied: "Dreams cannot float on the surface, and the things in dreams cannot really overflow into the material world. Therefore, as long as the nightmare child continues to move in the vast dream cluster, it needs this child as a cover."
In other words, this child's seemingly "normal" appearance is still useful to the Nightmare Child, and this remnant will always remain.
Until the arrival of two nodes.
One is that the Nightmare Sons have ceased their activities and no longer need this layer of cover; the other is that this vast dream cluster has come to an end.
Before that, Lorick would eat, talk, get along with others, chat and laugh as usual during the day, and report to his family about his new job.
No one would have thought that this young man was already just a dregs...
…
Ye Zuxi and Andri probably got the news from Alon in the evening.
Both of them fell into a long silence.
Aaron: "Then, you can decide this matter according to your own wishes. I respect your choice."
After saying these words, he took the puppets and left.
Ye Zuxi and Andri looked at each other. Ye Zuxi took a deep breath and said: "The plan remains unchanged. He is not him after all. We will eliminate the son of nightmare and avenge this poor young man."
"If this is just an illusion, it's not impossible to keep it." Andri said sadly.
Ye Zuxi blinked and was about to convince him when he heard Andri say: "However, there is an irreconcilable contradiction between the nature of this illusion and our purpose. We have to consider more living people. I understand.
.”
Ye Zuxi was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
There is no reason to let it stay for long.
Reaching a consensus, Andri watched Ye Zuxi continue to open the book in his hand and start reading.
"What book is that?" Andre asked curiously.
Ye Zuxi looked at the cover of the book in his hand and then remembered that the book had a thick black cover, which looked like a mysterious ancient book, and the key point was that it covered its title.
