Gerlyn was the only one in the family who could swim in December.
Chen Zhao could do it too, but even he wouldn't feel comfortable in this weather.
Gerlyn, on the other hand, completely ignored the temperature.
The family was preparing for Christmas. Portia kept placing all kinds of food on the table.
The kids were playing in the field behind the manor.
Xin Li had suggested to Chen Zhao to get some riding horses.
But Chen Zhao rejected her.
Xin Li was fine, but the other kids were too young.
They didn't know how to be safe and might get hurt while riding.
Even some of the cows that were originally raised had been cleared out.
After all, the kids in the family didn't know what fear was.
Their first reaction when they saw an animal was to ride it.
If it was the family pets, Chen Zhao would let them be.
But in reality, the kids knew very well that some animals couldn't be ridden.
Chen Zhao was considering if he should bring in some tamer animals, such as alpacas, Asian deer, and pygmy horses.
In American law, these animals weren't controlled. You could raise them as long as you had some simple permits.
These animals were more suitable for kids to touch.
For example, the cows and horses they had raised before were more likely to harm the children at home.
"Merry Christmas." Steven was the first person to call Chen Zhao today.
"Merry Christmas." Chen Zhao had no feelings for Christmas, but he couldn't ruin the festive atmosphere.
For others, it was the most important holiday.
So, Chen Zhao had to respect other people's holidays and traditions.
Look at those fellows from hell, they don't have any objections to Christmas.
After all, they could receive Chen Zhao's gifts on Christmas.
"I'm so jealous. I'm so busy now that I don't even have time to rest on Christmas," Steven complained to Chen Zhao.
"You're the boss. If you want to rest, no one can stop you." Chen Zhao rolled his eyes.
With Steven's current status, no one could stop him even if he wanted to rest for a month.
"You think I don't want to rest? The crew is in the preparation stage right now. Many things are delayed for a day and we'll lose hundreds of thousands of dollars."
"Didn't you say that this would only happen when filming starts? Why would there be losses when it's still in the preparation stage?" Chen Zhao asked, confused.
"The rental of the equipment and venue has a time limit. It's not like I can use it whenever I want. Moreover, there was a small problem during the preparation some time ago, causing the construction to be delayed. Now, I can only rush the progress around Christmas."
"What problem? Do you need my help? "
"No need. You can enjoy your Christmas in peace."
He chatted with Steven for a while.
Chen Zhao wasn't sure if Steven was busy, so he didn't continue the conversation.
Just as the call ended, another call came in.
Most of the calls were from close friends.
They were all sending their blessings to Chen Zhao.
Of course, Chen Zhao also sent his blessings to all his friends.
Then there were the members of the association.
…
It was a special Christmas for Lynsey Beyoncé.
She had already been thrown into the Training Tower by West and the rest three times.
In less than a minute, they would be killed by the monsters in the Trial Tower.
Finally, after the third time, West didn't throw her in again.
"Lynsey, go take a shower and prepare for Christmas dinner." Jollinash stood outside the Training Tower, waiting for Lynsey Beyoncé.
"Where do I go to take a shower?"
"Your room, of course."
"Which room is mine?"
"Forget it. I'll take you there."
Lynsey Beyoncé didn't have high hopes for her room.
However, when Jollinash brought her to the arranged room.
Lynsey Beyoncé couldn't believe it.
Was this luxurious room really for her?
"Did you take me the wrong way? This room is mine? "
"If you don't like it, then go pick one yourself," Jollinash said indifferently.
Lynsey Beyoncé took a deep breath and asked, "What exactly do you want to do to me?"
"Do you? Do you have money? Or power? " Jollinash looked down at Lynsey Beyoncé. She raised two fingers and a dense fireball formed. "Everyone in the Association can kill you with one finger. Do you think you're valuable enough for us to do anything to you?"
"Then why did you throw me into that horrible illusion?"
"That's the only way for us," Jollinash said. Jollinash said, "All of us have gone through countless trials and challenges in the Tower of Trials."
"But no one can survive in that place."
"You're only on the first level. If you can't even kill a hundred of the weakest monsters, then you're useless to us other than being despised by us. Even Ados … he's the gatekeeper of the headquarters. He could last ten minutes in there. Everyone else passed the first level. What about you?"
"Impossible. It's impossible for anyone to pass through that kind of hopeless situation."
"That only means you're weak. There's no other explanation."
What Jollinash said made Lycee Beyoncé feel embarrassed.
In the small circle she used to live in, she had always been feared and feared by people.
However, after being brought here by Chen Zhao, she realized that the power she had been so confident in and proud of in the past was not even worth mentioning here.
It seemed that everyone here was stronger than her.
"What's the highest level?"
"Apart from our president, the highest is four," Jollinash said. "Trust me. You don't even have the right to know the difficulty of the later levels."
"If you can do it, I can do it too."
"I hope the president didn't make a mistake. After all, you're the first spiritualist the president invited."
"Are you talking about that Asian? He's the president? "
"Of course."
"Just watch. I'll surpass him one day."
"It's good that you have the heart. Work hard." Jollinash didn't mock Lynsey Beyoncé.
In the past, she'd also been working hard for this.
But Chen Zhao's power had always made her feel despair.
She couldn't see the limits of Chen Zhao's power at all.
Chen Zhao had even done the most extreme thing — killing a god.
That was something he didn't even dare to imagine.
But it had really happened.
Lynsey Beyoncé glanced at Chen Zhao. "Are you going to mock me?"
"The chances are slim, but there's still a direction, right?"
"He's strong, right?"
"Yes." Jollinash nodded.
