Suddenly, the ordinary stone sword exuded bursts of black air, which slowly flowed into the old priest's eyes, nose, mouth and ears. He was originally only as tall as Irving's shoulders, but after inhaling the black air, he suddenly grew taller and soon grew to 2 meters in height at an unreasonable speed.Irving stared at the transformed old priest and asked calmly. "Is this your method of staying hidden?"The old priest smiled bitterly and helplessly. "The people of this shrine naturally deal with the dead and want to fight, but judging from your arrogance in not facing them, and the message conveyed by the wind chimes outside the door, you should be the most domineering inheritor of the legendary Supreme Fetus. The fetus does not respect dead souls or demons, and specializes in killing. It is better not to bring out that kind of dark ghost to humiliate everyone present.""You speak English so fluently. Well, we have no grudges against each other, so I really don't want to kill you,
The old priest's eyes were filled with even more doubt. Suddenly, there was a slight change in the sound of the wind chimes outside the hall. The old priest's eyes narrowed, and he no longer wanted to find out what Irving was capable of. So, he waved his hands and threw the large ball of black flame that was still floating in his hands towards him.Looking at the slowly approaching ball of flames, Irving suddenly collapsed to the ground, closed his eyes and waited for death to come.Just when the black flame was only three feet away from Irving, a figure rushed in quickly, grabbed Irving's collar like an eagle catching a chick, and flung him away. When the black flame approached, the figure touched the ground with one foot, turned around, and cleverly dodged it.Irving, who was unable to fight back, was thrown against the door of the hall. His eyes, which had been tightly closed, slowly opened. When he saw that he was still alive, a faint smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. He
Since Samantha had left, Irving's internal troubles have been eliminated. As for the external troubles, there was no need to worry about them for now.The reason why Irving had to wait until the spirit guide awakened before launching a general attack on Our Lady Shrine was naturally so that the spirit guide could warn him at all times. Otherwise, Irving, who had already taken on the responsibility of facing the high priest of Our Lady Shrine alone at the beginning of taking control of this temporary team, would not have had any other concerns.After all, according to what Jago said, the high priest's focus was on raising the demon and summoning a kind of faceless female ghoul. Irving had already repeatedly calculated the winning and losing situations, and would only take on this responsibility under absolutely safe circumstances. He was not a fool. As a newcomer, he would not follow behind the reserve players to get some free money, but also pretend to be a champion at the risk of his
Of course, the demon is not a wooden stake that can be chopped by him, but it seems that the demon also knows that time is running out, and actually took the stupid method of confronting Irving head-on.Irving leaned forward to avoid the demon's arm that was grabbing his shoulder, but the arm he dodged actually stretched forward and tightly grasped his shoulder.Irving glanced up and cursed himself as a fool. Since the thing in front of him was surrounded by fog, how could he deal with it with common sense?Feeling the hand like an iron hoop on his shoulder, Irving tried to break free and found that he could not, so he raised his right hand and punched the demon in the chest.But just when the fist was about to reach the demon's chest, a black membrane suddenly appeared between the fist and the demon's chest, preventing Irving from moving forward. The demon held Irving with both hands, and his other hands naturally could not be idle. He also imitated Irving and rushed forward with bot
At this point, the mission on the blacklist was considered completed. What surprised Irving again was that after Hutson fired the red flare into the sky, the mob of participants that should have run as far away as possible gathered together again.Everyone was obviously much more relaxed at this time, talking and laughing as they continued to strike up friendships. After all, whoever could survive this incident would definitely become a reserve member of the team.Seeing that except for a few who were still on guard, the rest of the personnel had basically arrived. Hutson clapped his hands to signal everyone to be quiet. Then he turned his head and smiled at Irving, saying, "Everyone present basically knows my identity information, except for you, the leader. I really don't know what to say to you."Everyone looked at the two men with kind smiles. After all, one had a clear identity and the other had outstanding strength. Although they did not actually see the scene of Irving challeng
The less you have, the more you need to prepare for a rainy day. This was the plan Irving had made when he was smuggled into Ecuador. Even if Samantha was really an ordinary team leader, even if the mission was successfully completed, Irving had no plan to go back with everyone else. Distrust was naturally the main reason for him deciding so.Relying on the memory in his mind, he ran all the way without stopping, and arrived at the abandoned dock the next afternoon.Various broken boats were placed in a disorderly manner around the dock, and the air was filled with a stench of rust mixed with dead fish and shrimps, which made people feel very uncomfortable.Irving held his breath and nodded to an old acquaintance who had been waiting at the dock for quite a long time now. This old acquaintance who had never changed his appearance was naturally Xena's personal bodyguard - Sanderson. When Sanderson saw Irving appear, he smiled with satisfaction. He didn't hesitate to take Irving to the
Gabriel naturally knew that the other family branches around him looked down on his nature as an adopted child, but he didn't mind at all. He smiled and said. "Remember, to get to the castle on the top of the mountain of the Silverwood traditional mansion, we usually have to pass so many checkpoints. Normally, even if we want to see Xena, we don't normally have the opportunity. Now the situation is very different. Although there are hundred bodyguards on the premises, they work day and night, so there are only fifty of them on duty at a time.""Where are you going with this?" One of them asked.Seeing that everyone's attention was completely attracted by him, Gabriel narrowed his eyes and continued, "These fifty bodyguards are not all around Xena. They also have to guard important places like the cab to prevent us from making desperate moves. So based on my guess and observations over the past few days, after that bald guy left, there should only be two bodyguards around Xena.""So wh
The sky had been gloomy for many days, and going to the deck to look at the surrounding sea was a must for Xena every day. Except for the first day when she was chatting and laughing with everyone, she was obviously a little isolated in the rest of the days, not approaching others, nor letting others approach her. She was in a daze with a sad face, or walking around anxiously with her phone in her hand.The sky had cleared up slightly by then. Xena angrily smashed the phone that kept saying "The number you're calling is switched off" to the ground. She raised her hand and slapped her forehead, muttering angrily. "The phone has been powered off for many days. Damn, why didn't I think that the phone I gave him would run out of battery? If I had known earlier, I would have bought a domestic phone with a long standby time."Xena returned to the room and curled up on the sofa, supporting her head with one hand. She made a few grimaces, then stared blankly with a depressed look on her face.
Soon, the food came up.Seeing Shayne wolfing down the food, Irving sighed and said. "Didn't Scar leave some money for you? Why do you look like you've been hungry for several days?"Hearing Irving's question, Shayne's eyes instantly turned red, and he said with murderous intent: "Scar left me 20,000 dollar, part of which was for my mother's medical treatment. My mother's eyesight is not very good, and Scar was afraid that when he left, I would find no way out for the time being. So he gave me some money so that I could use to take care of my mother and open a small shop to maintain my life. But after he left, the group of local big brothers turned their focus on me, and sent people to block my path every other day. If the money for my mother's treatment had not been given to the hospital, I am afraid it would have been taken by them."Irving motioned Shayne to continue eating, then he glanced at Xena who was thinking with her chin in her hand and said. "E
Irving still remembered the young man who stopped him. Although he was a little different from Shayne, who was fearless and had the word "bad guy" carved on his head, his facial features had not changed much. But what happened to him that gave him the scar that looked like a knife injury across his nose?"Shayne?" Irving asked knowingly."Hey." Shayne responded respectfully, then looked around with a vigilant look on his face and said, "Irving, thank goodness I found. I think Scar is in trouble. I can't find him. This is not like him."This kind of thing was not a thunderbolt for Irving. After all, he was not familiar with Scar, and Scar's job was to fight on the streets as a thug, which was inherently risky. Who knew when he would run into a someone above him who would want to kill him? But since Shayne said that he had been looking for him for a long time, this matter should not be that simple.Irving held Xena's little hand, raised his chin slightly, and motioned Shayne to continue
After Thomas sat down, Nancy saw that there were three people on this side and only Thomas on the other side, so she stood up meaningfully and sat down next to him, while Xena and Irving buried their heads and ate voraciously, since it didn't cost any money anyway.After lunch, Irving began to admire the man named Thomas. Not only was he thick-skinned, but his vision and eloquence were beyond the reach of ordinary people.During this period, Nancy's subtle flirting made Irving associate Thomas with the Mr. Howard mentioned by the gossiping girls in the class that morning.In the afternoon, facing Ramona who looked like he was ready to eat anyone, Irving frankly explained that he fainted due to exhaustion because he was busy moving too many things. During this time, he was met by the enthusiastic classmate Xena, who sent him to the hospital.Ramona had already studied Irving's information during her free time at noon. She certainly did not believe the test
The school cafeteria had made a lot of money on the first day of school. Just looking at the huge crowds of people, one could tell that the food in the school today should not be bad. After all, no one was stupid to waste money on bad food. If one was stupid enough to buy some unpalatable food, health would suffer from it.Especially on a first day of school like this, after all, the cafeteria is open for the first day of the semester, so there is no way there will be leftovers. Students also knew this, so not many people go to the school gate to open a hot-dog stands.Xena dragged Irving along as they rushed along with a burning heart. The classmates who were bumped into on the road smiled kindly and said nothing after seeing that it was Xena.When he came to the entrance of the cafeteria, Irving looked at the densely packed heads, swallowed his saliva and said. "With this number of students, even if you queue up to buy food, there is no place to sit. How about I treat you to outside
Seeing that her appearance instantly attracted everyone, the woman nodded with satisfaction, and then said calmly. "Hello, students. I am your homeroom teacher this semester. Today is the first day we met, so it is proper to introduce ourselves. I also hope that we can get along well."The woman said something nice and introduced herself: "My name is Esther Robinson, but you can call me Miss Robinson. I am your homeroom teacher this semester, and I teach English Literature." After that, she smiled and pointed to a girl in the first row near the door and said: "Well, classmate, you should start by introducing yourself. Speak loudly so that I can get to know you better and to also increase your own confidence."Looking at Miss Robinson on the stage, who was pulling the strings with the students with applause, and the students below the stage who had no ambition at all and were shouting out their names, Irving smiled helplessly. It was his turn."Irving Smiths!" Irving stood up quickly.
Xena's reluctant farewell to Irving was naturally seen by many people. This was very disappointing to those who thought that Xena should be tired of Irving after one summer vacation and should have abandoned him, and they once again secretly sighed that Xena really had a good taste.Because the new semester had just started, Irving came to his original classroom. At this time, the doorplate outside the classroom had changed from grade 12 to grade 13, and the students who arrived early in the classroom seemed to have not really felt the learning atmosphere that grade 12 should have.After all, it's just the beginning of a new session. After all, they haven't seen each other for so long, so they always have to get familiar with each other again and brag to each other about the ups and downs of the past two months."You know what, when my dad and I were playing in Tokyo, Japan, the ground was shaking so much. If I hadn't been quick-witted, I might have been buried..." A boy with glasses
"What you lack is time. After all, she is also a successor, and she has obviously practiced for more time than you." Caden thought for a moment and said carefully, "But don't think that the successor is a symbol of invincibility, because all inheritances are passed down from others, so even if you practice to perfection, you would have only reached a level that others have already reached. Besides, those people might not be really as great as they thought, after all, they were all dead...""Don't talk about such things now. Why do you like talking about death so much? Anyway, please tell me, if Samantha and I really have a death fight, what are the chances of me winning?" Irving interrupted Caden. He didn't have time to care about the affairs of the predecessors, or about them dying. After all, Samantha had said that she would assassinate him anytime and anywhere."The vertical eye is something that ordinary inheritors cannot use. Although it is just a replica, it is also extremely po
In the early morning of the next day, Irving raised his hand to turn off the alarm as soon as it rang as usual, then he sat up with a somersault and practiced in silence.Just after two hours, Irving, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes. He did not go out to exercise as usual. Following the ventilation machine, he leaned back slightly, leaned against the wall, and directly called back Caden, who was pulled away by Xena to sleep with him:"There are some things I think I need to understand clearly."Caden raised her hand and yawned, holding back her complaints about Xena's poor sleeping posture. She pursed her lips, pulled out a toothpick from behind her, put it in her mouth and said unscrupulously, "Ask.""Am I strong enough for now?" Irving said in a serious tone.Caden blinked, and for a moment she seemed unable to acknowledge it. Then she became angry, raised her finger and pointed at Irving. "You disturbed me so early just to make me appr
In Caden's eyes, a beauty should not have to do housework. How could a beauty like her do the heavy work of cleaning the room? What if her hands get calluses and her skin becomes rough even if she was just a spirit guide?After Caden went in to appease Xena, Irving began to make plans.At the same time, Xena did not roll around on the floor with the door closed as Irving imagined. She sat quietly on the bed, talking to someone on the phone with a serious expression. "Well, the information is what I gave you. If you can't find out, you can stop doing this business... What does a long time mean? You have a very good reputation in the industry... Okay, I believe you, you have to find out for me no matter how long it takes. You don't have to worry about the money... Well, I'll wait for your feedback.""Hmm..mmm""How did you get in?" Xena hung up the phone and looked at Caden who came in directly through the door, clearing her throat."You two are in a
