Old Linguang reached out and gently stroked his young son's golden hair, saying in a gentle tone:
"Go. That ghostly sage's fighting style is unique. Although he uses little Maria's body, his habits will be etched on the battlefield. Only by finding that ghostly sage can Casimir have a brighter future. The knights of the Linguang family will not be entangled in romantic relationships at this time. Go."
"Yes, father."
It's not that Mahenna didn't understand this, but his long-ill father's sudden improvement made him feel like he was in a dream, and he was reluctant to leave. However, after waking up, Mahenna didn't say anything more, except for one thing... He turned his head to look at Maria and said:
"Maria, I'm leaving the old man in your care. Remember to supervise him and don't let him drink anymore."
"Humph, brat, do you think I..."
Hearing what Mainna said, Lao Linguang glared and was about to refute something, but at this moment, Mainna lifted Lao Linguang's quilt with an expressionless face, took out a bottle of wine from the secret compartment in the bed, handed it to Maria, and then ran away without looking back. After all, the old man's eyes had already fallen on the drawer.
"Ahem, little Maria..."
"grandfather...."
Old Linguang smiled awkwardly and looked at little Maria, but in the face of his granddaughter's unhappy eyes, Old Linguang could only touch his head and hand over all his private collection of fine wine. In this regard, Old Linguang comforted himself, after all, this was the instruction of the ghost sage, and it was right for him to be obedient.
The ghost sage was at Longmen Port at this time, silently looking at the luxury passenger ship in front of him. The people standing beside him also fell into the same silence. After a while, Chen Huijie turned his head to look at Jessica, pointed at himself and said softly:
"This... is for me?"
308 Brother Chen is no longer an outsider!
Chen Huijie had actually noticed Jessica's movements a long time ago, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, he knew Jessica quite well. This cute and pitiful little cat head would either not make any movement or give you a big one.
So, Chen Huijie continued to talk to Zofia and Bai Jin about the additional matters, and after he finished, little Jessica immediately came over, still with that weak look, looking up at Chen Huijie, without saying a word, just simply waiting for his reply.
"Don't think too much. I'm not done with my work here yet. I'll have to wait and see about your grandfather's affairs, but it usually won't take too long."
Chen Huijie casually RUA'd Jessica's little cat head. This child looked so weak that people couldn't help but want to bully her. Although it was a bit mean, with such a little cat head in front of him, who could resist RUAing it? After all, she was not a stranger.
“Oh…I see…”
Jessica didn't think she could let Mr. Chen follow her today, so she just nodded quietly, then turned her head and waved behind her. Then, several big men in formal attire and the beast girl came over.
To be honest, this scene looked very familiar to Chen Huijie. When he went to Syracuse for the second time, he met Jessica on the way. Jessica came over happily and wanted him to go with her to find a place to reminisce about the past.
But news came from Texas that they were short of staff and management, and it would be best if Chen Huijie could go over and help sort out the situation to avoid new troubles.
To be honest, this kind of thing may sound troublesome, but as long as you have the right expertise, it is basically not a big deal.
But Chen Huijie was happy to go over and help. After all, he was in control of the thing, so he just treated it as going to meet friends to reminisce about the past.
After Jessica learned about this, she didn't say anything and let Chen Huijie continue to leave.
Then....
That night, Chen Huijie, who was about to take a nap in the passenger ship, saw Jessica again. This time, behind this little cat-headed girl, stood a group of people. Jessica pulled herself over and introduced them one by one, saying this one was a manager of such and such level, and this one was a captain of the suppression team of such and such rank. In short, such a team was more than enough for Texas.
But... I have already promised Texas, I can't suddenly say I can't go halfway.
In response, Jessica said quite innocently, "I didn't say I couldn't let you go. I went a little later." She said something like, "It's been a long time since we last met in Rhodes Island. Ajie, don't you miss me too?" Chen Huijie thought about it and realized that this was the truth.
Later, when he was reminiscing about the past, he met Pepe again. Everyone knew how she had discovered something other than Sargon in her archaeological research, but when these two little guys met, Chen Huijie felt that the way they spent money was really shocking.
But putting aside the issue of spending money, this reunion went quite smoothly. Chen Huijie happily went to find Texas, and then in Syracuse, the original Longmen Penguin Logistics team successfully met again, and brought the Emperor along, and they had a great time together.
That's right...
Chen Huijie thought about it carefully. He was indeed short of manpower at the moment, but could Jessica really figure out what kind of people he needed right now...wait!
While thinking, Chen Huijie noticed a luxury passenger ship approaching nearby. The symbol on it was clearly Thor Industries. This made Chen Huijie immediately realize something, and he couldn't help but point at the ship, then at himself:
"Give it to me?"
"Ok!"
Jessica was slightly stunned at first. She didn't expect that Mr. Chen understood what she meant before she even opened her mouth. This made Jessica feel like she had found a confidant, and she nodded happily.
"Brother Chen, you're still staying in Longmen, aren't you? Well, I know you have important matters to attend to, so I'm giving you this passenger boat. When you're done with your work, you can take it directly to my place. This boat, and the route it sails on, are exclusively for my family, so it'll save you a lot of time."
At this moment, Sophia on the side suddenly said:
"Exclusive channel? Why don't I remember the dragon gate leading to..."
"Just bought it!"
Before Sophia finished speaking, Jessica, worried about being misunderstood, immediately spoke first:
"Really? I have the paperwork."
"Wait, a dedicated channel? Just...just bought it?"
This 100 million yuan deal made Bai Jin scratch his head. Let's not talk about how troublesome it is to approve this thing. Why does it feel like from your tone, buying a waterway is like buying a toy.
Chen Huijie understood that Longmen would cooperate with Thor Industries in the future, so it was normal to open an exclusive channel. The channel Jessica mentioned was probably a small subsidiary channel in this commercial channel, which was specially used for this ship. As for the price... it was probably just a few years of Jessica's New Year's money?
Looking at the little cat head in front of him, Chen Huijie was not scared. He thought about it and decided that it was not a big deal, so he accepted the gift without hesitation. This made Jessica even more happy. She was really worried about what to do if Chen Huijie refused the gift. Although she had a lot of persuasions in mind, it was really too difficult for the little cat head.
Therefore, the more Jessica looked at Chen Huijie, the more she liked him. No matter how much money it cost, it was a gift, something used to enhance feelings. As long as Brother Chen accepted the gift, she and Brother Chen would no longer be outsiders!
"Brother Chen, we're leaving first. See you in the future..."
At this time, the reminder to board the ship sounded. Although she was reluctant, Jessica had to set off. This little cat head was really about to turn into a crying cat head, and she waved goodbye to Chen Huijie.
On the other side, Sofia's expression was a little solemn. She felt the pressure coming. She originally thought that since she was a rich person, it would not be impossible for her to fight with the little tiger, but she did not expect that such a big guy would suddenly pop up.
This time when I go back, I must work hard on my cooperation with Kjerag. I must multiply my family fortune several times over. It's just a passenger ship, I can afford it.
Bai Jin walked to Chen Huijie's side, pointed at the passenger ship, and said softly:
"Boss, if I perform well enough in the future, can we also give you this big gift from the annual meeting?"
Chen Huijie was stunned, then couldn't help but said with a smile:
"That's no problem. You don't even have to go to the annual meeting. When you come back from Casimir, I'll give you this as a reward. Do your best, girl."
"Great! Thank you, Boss. You are so kind. I wish you immortality!"
Just as Bai Jin was having fun, the reminder sound for their departure had already sounded. Sofia and Bai Jin were about to embark on the journey back to Casimir. Margaret consciously stood beside Chen Huijie, and this scene made Sofia's eyelids jump. This inexplicable feeling of being a family made her pinch her brows——
Sofia, what are you thinking about? That's your niece whom you placed next to Brother Chen, just to repay his kindness. Don't become so suspicious just because of this. If you do this, you won't be able to sleep every day when you go back!
At this moment, Chen Huijie suddenly stopped laughing, looked at the two people and said seriously:
"Are you leaving now? Have you forgotten something?"
309 Kal'tsit: My turn?
Zofia and Bai Jin have long been accustomed to Chen Huijie's face-changing pranks. This guy is usually very steady, but in his spare time, he will still play tricks on you.
So what does he mean?
Sophia said helplessly:
"Remember, remember, I will talk to Maenna... huh?"
Before Sofia finished speaking, she looked at Bai Jin and Chen Huijie who were hugging each other, and her eyes suddenly widened. She realized that she was distracted by the rich woman just now. Although Chen Huijie was indeed concerned about the competition, why would he spoil the mood at this time? What he said was naturally a farewell gesture.
Damn it! Someone got there first!
Although Bai Jin was also shocked by Ping Yijinren, she had never thought that she could make so much money. Therefore, when the little white horse saw Chen Huijie's sudden smile and open arms, she was not distracted. She just... you know what I mean. Her mind still wanted to be reserved, but her body couldn't wait to jump over with joy.
"Boss, can I write you a letter as soon as I get back to let you know I'm safe?"
Feeling the warmth coming from her and the sense of security that suddenly wrapped around him, Bai Jin didn't want to leave for a moment, but Zofia was still waiting behind him. If he just held her like this for no reason, she would definitely nag him, so Bai Jin's brain turned quickly and he found a topic to talk about.
"Sure, but I don't think I'll reply. After all, with the messenger delivering the message, I can already run back and forth. As I said before, remember to contact me if you have anything. For someone of the Platinum throne, delaying a little shouldn't be a problem."
"Of course not a problem, I guarantee to complete the task!"
Hearing this, Bai Jin saluted Chen Huijie like a clown, but after that, Bai Jin couldn't help but feel regretful. Why did he jump out of the other person's arms on his own initiative?
On the other side, Zofia also came to Chen Huijie's side, reached out and tucked the golden hair hanging on her face behind her ears, took a deep breath calmly, and then generously hugged Chen Huijie. Looking at the young man in front of her, the former competitive knight put one hand on her waist and said:
"Leave those things to me. Nothing will go wrong, so you don't have to worry about me. To be honest, there are some things you've instructed me to do that I still don't quite understand, but I will honestly follow your plan... In short, when you come to Casimir in the future, I promise I won't hold you back!"
"Well, I believe you."
Unlike Bai Jin and Margaret, although Sofia was not very old, she had much more experience in life than the other two. Chen Huijie didn't need to say too much to her. He just patted Sofia's shoulder, took out a corsage from his pocket, and handed it to Sofia as a farewell gift.
Bai Jin looked envious, but she seemed to understand why the young boss didn't give her a farewell gift. On the one hand, it was because of her identity, she might have to embark on a short journey of hiding at any time.
Since I'm going to hide, I'd better leave as cleanly and as inconspicuously as possible. If my boss gives me a farewell gift, I might be obsessed with taking it with me. If someone notices something, I'll be in danger.
on the other hand.....
I am different from Zofia. After completing this job, I, Xiao Baijin, will be a subordinate of Dayanlongmen, and can follow the boss at any time. But Zofia, I am afraid she will have to stay in Casimir. If she wants to see the boss in the future, I am afraid she will have to ask me for convenience. Humph, so, the farewell gift doesn't matter!
Chen Huijie and Zofia tacitly ignored Bai Jin's sudden humming. Although Chen Huijie picked out this brooch in the mall, it had a hidden secret. At the critical moment, it could be used to kill the enemy or to escape. In short, it was a fool-proof operation, so just don't touch it by mistake.
At this time, the reminder sound for the passenger ship to leave sounded again. Even though Sofia and Bai Jin were reluctant, they had to get on board.
Chen Huijie stood at the harbor, watching the passenger ship carrying his friends sail further and further away. Behind him, Margaret's eyes couldn't help but fall on him.
After the emotion of farewell faded away, Margaret couldn't help but think of the two hugs her benefactor had just given her. Come to think of it...it seemed that she was also carried out by her benefactor when she was in the natural disaster. So, she was the first person to be hugged.
However, think about it carefully, at that time, I was in a daze due to excessive consumption of Originium skills, and I didn't feel anything at all. So, although I was the first one to be hugged, it was not the first one. So can I ask the benefactor to give me another one?
Margaret blushed slightly as she pondered this inwardly. She tried her best not to make her expression too predictable. She was supposed to be heading back to the apartment with her benefactor, so she'd probably have a chance to drop a hint along the way...
The little Pegasus, who had completely forgotten her aunt's instructions before leaving, was now eager to try. But just as Margaret was thinking about this, Chen Huijie turned his head and looked at her and said:
"You go back first. Since we're already at the port, I'll just go out for another trip."
After saying that, Chen Huijie turned into a shadow and flew out of the port, leaving Margaret standing there, almost petrified.
Margaret had no other words to say about this. She could only go back to the apartment obediently. But in the apartment, she saw an 'acquaintance', the white-haired Sarkaz woman.
The person was naturally Shining Quesasina. She was originally helping out in the hospital, but after she was done, a nurse told her that a very handsome boy whose race was unknown had come to see her. Quesasina immediately realized that it was Chen Huijie.
As for this young man, Quesasina naturally wanted to have a good chat with him. Last night, whether it was the War King Neczrei or his lip reading, the Sarkaz elder sister tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
Therefore, after arranging Liz's affairs, Quisasina hurried to the apartment, but she did not expect that the apartment suddenly became so deserted.
Kuisashina and Margaret had a brief conversation to understand the current situation and asked when Chen Huijie would be back.
This question really stumped Margaret, because Chen Huijie might come back at any time and she really couldn't give an exact time.
Well...Quisasina would just sit down and wait for a while. The hospital didn't need her for the time being anyway. But it was a bit awkward for the two of them to just sit there like that. And the only common topic between them seemed to be Chen Huijie. So, Margaret thought for a moment and took the initiative to talk to Quisasina about Chen Huijie...
On the other hand, Chen Huijie didn't come out for anything important this time, he just wanted to get a note reward.
Chen Huijie casually released a burst of sword energy, killing the Rust Hammer members who rushed towards the passenger ship. Then, looking at the dried human bones in the Rust Hammer camp, he threw down a fire talisman, turning them into ashes and letting them return to dust.
[Note: July 27th, 1:21 PM. I didn't expect Jessica to seem so reserved, but after getting to know her, she was quite talkative. She said she'd been to Longmen before, and the mission went smoothly, but she encountered the Rusty Hammer on the way out, which gave her a big scare. (The trip has been canceled.)]
【Props: Farewell Tears】
Tears are shed for the living, who need them far more than the dead...right?
It's another prop that was taken out.
Chen Huijie used it with some regret. This kind of item cannot be exchanged through [Synthetic Jade], which always makes people feel a little sorry.
As for the present... now that it has come out, let's clear away all the unstable factors.
When Chen Huijie started to act, on the other side, on Rhodes Island, Kal'tsit also held a long-awaited elite operators' meeting. All the elite operators who were not on a mission gathered in this meeting room.
Speaking of which, the name and system of Elite Operators and Elite Operator Conference can be regarded as Rhodes Island's inheritance of the military tradition of the Tower of Babel.
Back when she was still in Kazdel, Theresa had hoped to create a military decision-making system that was no longer restricted by the bloodline of the royal court, creating advantages for the relatively small Babel armed forces that the Military Commission did not have.
As a result of this attempt, combat elites who demonstrated military talent were quickly promoted to front-line commanders, and the best among them were even able to participate in the highest-level military decision-making in the Tower of Babel.
Of course, it is undeniable that such a move undoubtedly brings serious risks of intelligence leakage, but correspondingly, the Tower of Babel has significant advantages over the Military Commission's conventional armed forces in terms of battlefield adaptability, combat flexibility and morale.
The conditions for becoming an elite operator are not complicated——
You don't need to possess the power to cut through buildings, nor do you need Originium skills that can melt optic nerves with just words. As long as you are approved by the leaders of Rhodes Island and the Elite Operators' Conference, any operator with outstanding expertise is eligible to join their ranks.
What really matters is that Elite Operators are always on standby, ready to take risks that exceed the capabilities of ordinary Operators.
Therefore, friends who are worried about being wiped out do not need to worry about this possibility at all. At this time, if an unlucky assassin opens a blind box and comes here, under the watchful eyes of the elite operators, he will close the door and leave very obediently and politely.
Kal'tsit sat at the main seat at the long table in the conference room with an expressionless face. However, looking at the conference room in front of her that was already full, even though she had experienced too many farewells over the years, Kal'tsit still felt a little subtle in her heart.
Theresa's sudden departure triggered the collapse of the Tower of Babel, and the survivors had to face a chaotic game that could not be replayed. Although the "Rhodes Island" was still able to sail, nearly half of the crew on board had been lost in the attack.
