When Gentle Rou met Lucian, Lucian was arguing with Zhou Yiyu.
Judging from the flushing expression on his face, he was obviously very angry.
He should indeed be angry.
Any normal person will be dissatisfied with the behavior of asking for the relics of his favorite wife.
The problem is that the person who now makes this "excessive and rude" request is also his biggest reliance on revenge for his wife, not to mention that Zhou Yiyu is still holding the bottle of Michael's blood he needs.
"Why can't you change the conditions? I can give you more US dollars!" Seeing that Zhou Yiyu refused to give in, Lu Xi'an asked in anger.
"Kline also paid USD to those guys who tried to kill you, did you see that he succeeded? Sir."
US dollar? This thing has no temptation to both the North and the West, or its only function is to give everyone a reason to come forward in this world.
"But this is my wife's relic, why do you have to get it?"
Gentle strode over: "Reasons never matter, Mr. Lucian. The point is what price you are willing to pay for what you want. Should you simply keep a dead object for the sake of missing you or exchange for a bigger one
Power to take revenge?”
Lucian replied: "But it is also possible that I don't need to pay such a price and still kill Victor."
His tone was very firm, just as the adventurers in the West District were resolutely refused to accept gentleness and their meaning. The difference is that people in the West District have now learned to respect Shen Yi and the others' opinions, but Lucian began to "play".
temper".
This is also a common problem for people. People always blindly believe that if others can do it, they can do it themselves. Especially as a leader, if he does not have this kind of character called self-confidence, then he will
Not worthy of being a good leader.
Obviously, if Lucian had not been allowed to experience some lessons, he would not bow to Wen Rou and the others.
But the problem is that Wenrou and the others can't let Lucian encounter failure so easily - this is a battlefield, not a school, and a failure is often enough to be fatal.
Thinking of this, Wenrou couldn't help but feel a headache.
It would be great if Shen Yi was here. With his three-inch tongue, he would definitely convince Lu Xi'an - he could always grasp the key points of the problem.
So what is the key to Lucian?
Wenrou began to imitate Shen Yi's ideas intentionally or unintentionally.
She finally realized that the problem lies in the way of trading itself.
Lucian's hatred for Victor and the vampire family, although the fact that werewolf themselves were enslaved, was more from his love for his wife. Otherwise, he would not have done so happily as the slave captain (see details for details
Three, The Legend of the Night Prequel).
After Lucian's wife died, Lucian led the werewolf to rebel. Although the banner he raised was the old-fashioned free arguments, the motivation for revenge was always the death of his wife.
And this relic is exactly the thing that carries all his longing for his wife.
It is completely unacceptable for Lucian to trade for Lucian.
It's like you promised a young man that I could make you a monetary, but you had to pay a price to castrate yourself, and you wouldn't accept anything that is to be more normal.
But if you change the condition to abstinence for one year, the situation may be very different.
Thinking of this, Wenrou knew what to do.
She smiled slightly: "I think you misunderstood, Mr. Lucian, we don't have to give us your wife's belongings."
"What's the meaning?"
The gentle brain turned rapidly, and while carefully verbing, he replied slowly: "Actually...we just want to do one thing with it."
"What's up?"
"You know, Victor was able to become one of the three elders of vampire because he was the first vampire to be assimilated by Marcus, which made him second only to Marcus. And with Marcus
That powerful strength, in front of Victor, had to bow his head, because..."
"He used to be a lord, a leader with a strong secular power, and he had his own army."
"Yes, that's exactly that. You know that it takes a lot of money to maintain the existence of an army."
Lucian frowned: "What the hell do you want to say?"
Wenrou had already sorted out the thoughts in her mind, and she quickly said: "We suspect that Victor had buried a lot of wealth in private. It was not US dollars, but a large amount of gold, antiques, and precious jewelry from the twelfth century..."
Lucian understood a little, and he looked at Wenrou in surprise: "How come hell, why do you think so?"
"Mercenaries fight for money." Gentle answered naturally, and she found that one of the consequences of learning from Shen Yi was that she had to be more shameless - a few minutes ago she was saying that the US dollar was meaningless to them, but now she had to use more
US dollars as an excuse.
"What does that have to do with my wife's relics?"
"As far as we know, Victor has always wanted to get this thing back. In recent centuries, Victor's economic situation has not been very good, at least he has not made him more brilliant than before."
Lucian understood: "So you suspect that my wife's relics are the keys to open his treasure house, or one of the keys."
A gentle smile without a positive answer. The best way to make the other party believe a lie is to let him deduce the result by himself. Obviously, Lucian did not disappoint her expectations.
King Kong had already guessed the gentle thoughts, and he immediately interfered: "We don't really need your wife's relics, we just want to see if it can bring us what we want. If you can give it to us for the time being
, we can return it to you in the future."
Lucian looked at King Kong, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally nodded: "If this is the case, I can consider accepting it. But your guess seems unfounded, and I am very worried that you will get nothing by then.
...This is a bet!"
King Kong replied indifferently: "We can even bet on our own lives, so why don't we bet on a treasure?"
"How many days do you plan to borrow?"
Gentle answer: "Ten days. If we can't get anything within ten days, it still belongs to you."
"Then I accept it." Lu Xi'an said, taking the pendant from his neck and handing it to Zhou Yiyu.
“Happy cooperation!”
“Happy cooperation!”

There is darkness under the ruins.
Chen Yi touched the wall beside him and sighed: "It seems that it's not easy to get out."
Due to the incomplete explosion, the two walls of the elevator passage did not completely collapse, and due to the support of the elevator above, a hollow area appeared under the ruins.
Chen Yi and Serena are located in this hollow area, avoiding the fate of being buried alive.
But it is not easy to get out.
Even though Chen Yi already possessed strong power, he still couldn't rush out from the huge ruins made of hundreds of tons of reinforced concrete - if his strength reached the four difficulty level, there might be no problem.
He tried to open the team channel again, but there was still no response. The North District did not know how to block the channel communication function, so that he could not contact Wen Rou and others.
"It seems we can only dig slowly." Serena replied.
Chen Yi shook his head: "No, the air can't last for that long."
He looked back at Serena: "It seems that I can only use teleport beads to leave here first, and then call my soldiers to dig it up quickly. Or call my teammates over and take you out after taking it to the miniature world. But no matter which method, I must leave you first.”
"No!" Serena shouted.
She suddenly hugged Chen Yi: "Don't leave me."
Chen Yi was slightly stunned, Serena had already hugged Chen Yi's neck: "I will be scared if you leave."
This is really not like the words a dead messenger can say!
However, at that moment, Serena looked at Chen Yi with great serious expression: "I need you to be by my side."
"But……"
"No, but. Don't forget that I'm a vampire... I can survive without air. I know you can do it, right?"
“…if…it’s not too long.”
"Then stay here and accompany me...we will go out, but I don't think it's now...I think maybe I should seize this rare opportunity before we go out."
Her voice gradually became lowered, and she was completely snuggling in Shen Yi's arms.
Suddenly, Chen Yi felt her body heat up, and at some point Serena had taken off her coat.
His hands touched Serena's tender body, and the delicate and smooth skin brought a silky feel. Chen Yi's body froze slightly: "You..."
He wanted to say it but didn't say it out loud. Serena's hot red lips were printed between Chen Yi's mouth.
She took his hand and put it on her chest. The peaks were tender and elastic.
Hell!
Chen Yi could no longer stop his heartbeat, and his physiological instinct quickly reacted.
Especially after Serena took his hand and slid down, allowing him to touch the more mysterious and seductive area...
He hurriedly pushed Serena away: "No, Serena..."
"What's wrong?" In the darkness, Serena looked at Chen Yi in surprise: "Don't you want it?"
Chen Yi sighed: "To be honest, I never planned that way."
"Why?"
"..." Chen Yi had a headache.
He did not deny that he had a good impression of Serena, especially that she had such a similarity to Anna, and even their tempers and personalities had many similarities. But this did not mean that he was going to have something to do with Serena.
This is not because he doesn't want to, but because he feels that he needs to be responsible for gentleness.
Gentleness is not the kind of woman who can accept that she has many women, and he is not the kind of man who can make her women sad.
He doesn't mind being romantic, but only if there is no woman around him who needs him to take responsibility.
Now Serena has forced him into a very embarrassing situation.
"I...I don't know what to say, Serena." Chen Yi said carefully: "Just...I don't think we can..."
When he said the word "no", Serena's body became obviously stiff.
"But you said you love me," she murmured.
This sentence is like an electric current, completely numbing Chen Yi's body.
He suddenly found himself accidentally jumping into a trap he had dug for himself, and now, he can't get out.
But Serena seemed to understand something.
She took a few steps back: "I understand, you have never loved me, you are lying to me."
"No, it's not like this, Serena." Chen Yi said hurriedly, he wanted to explain but didn't know where to start.
Serena had already smiled bitterly, and her voice was sobbing: "I'm so stupid, I actually believe you. You saved me again and again, for my life and death, I was moved by this, and I actually fell in love with you because of this... No, you are not for me, you have other purposes, I should have understood it long ago. I remembered that when I saw you the first time, you said that I look like your friend... You love not me, it's Your friend.”
Hell, this is not a wonderful misunderstanding.
Chen Yi hurriedly said, "Selina, listen to me, it's not like that."
"What's that?"
Chen Yi had a headache.
He didn't know how to explain it, but he knew that if he couldn't give a perfect explanation, he would lose Serena's trust—which is undoubtedly deadly under the current circumstances.
When words cannot solve the problem, the only way is to act.
He hugged Serena and kissed her nose gently.
Serena closed her eyes slightly and felt the warmth that this man brought to her.
Her naked body snuggled up in Chen Yi, and she whispered: "Enter me..."
