"Her Highness? How is that possible? How could Her Highness find a nobody like me? "
Lü Luo's reaction was completely in line with a failed transcendent after hearing that he had been chosen by Her Highness the Empress.
The maid was also very satisfied.
This was how it should be. A transcendent in the wilderness was suddenly lucky enough to be chosen by the Empress. Wasn't this a good thing?
As for things like talent and potential, there were many young people in the Empire who had talent and potential.
How many people could be chosen by the Empress?
"Mr. Lü Luo, you don't have to belittle yourself. In fact, from the moment Her Highness the Empress took a fancy to you, you were no longer ordinary."
"Yes, yes, yes, you're right."
Lü Luo seemed very reserved and humble.
This made the maid feel superior in front of Lü Luo.
As a result, his attitude towards Lv Luo also became more amiable.
"Mr. Lü Luo, don't be too nervous. Her Highness the Empress is a very easy person to talk to.
When you meet her, you don't have to be so reserved. Just maintain your normal state. "
"Okay, thank you for this … Little Miss' reminder."
When the maid heard Lü Luo call her Little Miss, she immediately smiled.
If Lü Luo could become Wu Liji's disciple, then in the future, between her and Lü Luo, cough cough …
Now was not the time to think about those things. The most important thing now was to bring Lü Luo to Her Highness.
"Okay, your performance today was very outstanding. Don't belittle yourself.
Go take a shower, change your clothes, and then come with me. "
"Okay."
Lü Luo's current performance was a kind of complete obedience.
He was very smart, and this never needed to be said.
The maid's attitude was a little strange. Lü Luo was not sure if this was Wu Liji's test or some other reason.
But he guessed that there must be a reason for the maid's attitude.
He had to cooperate with the act.
After taking a shower and changing into a new set of clothes, Lv Luo looked even more refined than before.
He rarely dressed himself up, but today was different.
After all, he was going to meet the Empress. He had to prepare the necessary attire.
The maid's eyes lit up when she saw Lü Luo. After all, handsome men would always receive preferential treatment from women.
"Clothes really make the man!"
"You flatter me. I rarely dress like this, so I'm really not used to it."
"It's alright. When you become Her Highness' disciple in the future, you will naturally wear such attire more often."
"Understood!"
Lü Luo was led by a maid and boarded the Princess's car under the watchful eyes of a group of inspectors.
After Lü Luo left, the members of the inspection department started whispering to each other.
"He was taken away by the Empress. What do you say? Do you still want to follow? "
"There's no point. It will probably be washed clean in the end."
"Then all our previous work was for nothing?"
"It's not for nothing. Our role is to investigate.
If such people are available, the imperial family will clean them up. This can be considered a method for the imperial family to recruit talents. "
The whispers of the inspection department did not last for long.
After some simple exchanges, Lü Luo's case file was temporarily closed.
If Lü Luo really became Wu Liji's disciple, then this case file would most likely not be opened again.
…
Sitting in the car, Lü Luo straightened his back and looked ahead.
The maidservant beside him couldn't help but chuckle at his reserved manner.
"I already said that there's no need to be so nervous."
"Ah … okay."
Although he said that, Lü Luo still changed his posture and continued to be nervous.
This state made the maid frown slightly.
"Mr. Lü Luo, what did you do in the past?"
"Me? I used to … do some special business. "
Lü Luo's answer was somewhat ambiguous.
However, at this point, he was even more certain that the maid in front of him might be a member of the imperial family, but not necessarily Wu Liji's.
Although he did not reach an agreement with Wu Liji last night …
There were still many things that Wu Liji knew.
For example, his contact with the King of Freaks and his Sequence contamination.
Given Wu Liji's thoughts, she probably wouldn't send someone who didn't know anything to contact him.
Unless this person wasn't one of her people.
"Special business? How special is it? "
The maid continued to ask.
However, this time, Lü Luo only remained silent. He had no intention of continuing to answer.
The atmosphere in the car became a little oppressive.
Lü Luo restrained his aura to prevent his oppression from descending on the maid.
After a while, the maid seemed to be sure that Lü Luo would not answer her question.
She suddenly laughed.
"Hahaha, Mr. Lü Luo, don't panic. This is just a routine question.
If you can't answer, it doesn't matter.
However, I still have a question for you. This question is very important. "
"Yes, I'm listening. What's the question?"
"Will Mr. Lü Luo be loyal to the imperial family?"
"Eh? Isn't it only right to be loyal to the imperial family? "
"Oh, perhaps Lü Luo didn't understand what I meant.
What I mean is, what club did you belong to in the past? "
"I didn't join any club. I swear … I really didn't join any of those clubs."
Lü Luo's expression was a little agitated, as if he had been wronged.
However, this attitude made the maid feel a little more at ease.
At a glance, it was obvious that this guy had not seen much of the world. He was scared out of his wits.
As for what Lü Luo said about not joining any club … Heh heh, it was fine to just listen to him. It mainly depended on his attitude.
"Your identity card has been laundered, right? What crime was it in the past? "
"I, I, I …"
Lü Luo started to speak incoherently, but his head remained stiff and he refused to say anything.
"Alright, I won't continue to ask about these things.
Get ready, we'll be there soon. "
The maid could entrust other people to investigate Lü Luo's black material. These things could not be found out by just asking.
Even if they could find out, the accuracy might not be as effective as the investigation.
After the two of them arrived at the government building, Lü Luo followed the maid out of the car.
After winding their way to the roof, the maid waved at Lü Luo.
"Go, Her Highness is waiting for you inside.
Also, pay attention to etiquette. "
"Oh, I know."
Lü Luo maintained his panic. Even if there were no cameras around, he maintained this state.
It was not until he walked into the Princess's room that the observer gave him a notification.
[It's about time. There are no surveillance cameras and no watchers.]
Lü Luo put away his slightly exaggerated expression and returned to normal.
However, he did not see Wu Liji in the room.
[Inside.]
Lü Luo pushed open the door and went deeper into the room. There was an even larger viewing platform here.
He could directly see the venue of the Society Meeting.
At this moment, Wu Liji was sitting on a recliner, eating fruits comfortably and watching Bambusa Chinensis's competition.
"You're here!"
Wu Liji's tone was like seeing an old friend. She did not seem surprised by Lü Luo's arrival.
Lü Luo was about the same. The two of them had a tacit understanding.
However, neither of them was willing to make any further concessions. Therefore, the second round of negotiations had to be carried out.
"Why are you looking for me? Tell me. "
"Aren't you asking the obvious? What else can I do other than cooperate with you? "
"Couldn't you have said it yesterday? Why did you have to wait until today?"
Wu Liji smiled and pushed the fruit plate in front of Lü Luo.
"Do you want to eat?"
"No, my mother doesn't let me eat other people's food."
Lü Luo replied very sincerely.
"Can't you speak properly?"
"Didn't I speak properly?"
"Alright, Zhang Zhangming was here yesterday. There are many things between us that can't be said clearly.
You can think of it as me giving in and compromising when I asked you to come over today.
I came with sincerity, Lü Luo. "
Lü Luo blinked. Getting something for nothing? Then I'm too good at it.
"Mm, what did you give in to? What did you compromise on?
Where's your sincerity? Let me see. "
Wu Liji was speechless.
The man in front of her was really difficult to deal with. Not to mention that he had such strength at this age.
It was too much to be so slippery.
"What kind of concession do you want? Money, power? Or me? "
"Don't, don't, don't. I'm a married man. Don't do those fancy things with me.
My request is also very simple. Don't get involved with Gray Robe. Our cooperation can be achieved.
This request shouldn't be too much, right? "
Wu Liji narrowed her eyes.
"Why are you so hostile to Gray Robe? Your contact with them shouldn't be very deep, right? "
"In your mouth, the empire's capture of Sequence Takers is unforgivable.
What about Gray Robe? Isn't Gray Robe doing the same thing as the Empire's Inspection Department?
How did they turn into idealistic revolutionaries in your mouth?
Don't have to have such double standards. Although women like double standards, it's a little too much for you to have such double standards. "
Lü Luo's words made Wu Liji unable to refute him.
While feeling a little sullen, she was really unwilling to give up on Lü Luo's combat strength.
"Forget it. Since you're unwilling to cooperate with Gray Robe, I'll arrange for it to be dealt with.
However, I still want the resource points, but they have to be under my name.
Consider it your proof of allegiance. "
Lü Luo already understood what Wu Liji meant.
Next, it was the details of the cooperation.
"That's fine. I agree."
Seeing Lü Luo agree, Wu Liji nodded.
Lü Luo was very straightforward. She didn't want to make the cooperation between the two so complicated.
They were both young people, and young people naturally had their own way of doing things.
"Oh, by the way, can you beat Bambusa Chinensis in this competition?"
"There's a high probability … that I can't beat him."
After the two looked at each other and smiled, they ended the conversation relatively happily.
After Lü Luo left, the maid looked at Lü Luo with a report with a strange expression.
It seemed that she was puzzled because she didn't find any information about Lü Luo's past.
"You've hidden it quite well?"
"Ah?"
"Forget it. Let's leave it at that for now. After the competition is over, you should still go on stage. After all, you're the winner of the challenger group."
"I know."
The maid didn't ask Lü Luo how the discussion with the Empress went. If Wu Liji couldn't even take down a challenger group member, she would be too weak.
It was already evening, and the competition was coming to an end.
A winner like Bambusa Chinensis wouldn't meet a loser like Lü Luo in the challenger group.
When the two walked to the center of the square, they exchanged glances and then walked away.
Next was the speech of the Western District's mayor and some information about the development of the clubs.
Lü Luo didn't like this kind of activity, but he couldn't refuse.
"Okay, then I wish all the contestants a good result in tomorrow's competition and a good future!"
After the leaders finished speaking, the elites of the clubs were dismissed on the spot.
Tomorrow was the real start of the club competition.
But for Lü Luo, it didn't matter when it started or when it ended.
Under such circumstances, Lv Luo's own strength was reduced to an existence that could be dealt a blow.
Naturally, he had nothing to worry about.
That night, he didn't contact Bambusa Chinensis or anyone else.
He sat quietly on the rooftop alone.
There were quite a lot of people in the vicinity of the government building. Among the people coming and going, Lv Luo found something not quite right.
There were a total of 393 people who entered the government building.
And there were only about 370 people who went out.
It was after work time. Even if it was because of the club competition, there were more people who went in than left. It was very strange.
"Looks like something is going to happen!"
Lü Luo picked up the phone and called Bambusa Chinensis.
"Don't go out at night."
"Got it."
The conversation between the two was very short. After informing Bambusa Chinensis, Lü Luo put away the phone.
This was the government building, and it was also the place with the most people from the inspection department.
Even if Zhang Zhangming covered him, he couldn't use the Observer's Eye openly here.
So he could only be a little more secretive.
"Compare the status of the pedestrians, collect information, and investigate."
[Collecting … please wait a moment.
There are a large number of unknown people in disguise in the resting area of the government building.
Their specific strength is uneven. The highest is Rank-5, and the lowest is Rank-3.]
"Resting area?"
Lü Luo suddenly turned his head and looked at the place he had been in the afternoon.
Wu Liji's room!
So many unknown people were approaching her. Were they trying to capture the princess?
Wu Liji's strength was not bad. Lü Luo knew this, but if a large number of people infiltrated to assassinate or capture her, she shouldn't be able to withstand it, right?
[Do you want to go?]
Lü Luo was also asking himself this question.
Should he go?
He and Wu Liji had just reached a cooperation agreement, and their relationship was still unknown.
The two of them had not even started a formal cooperation.
Wu Liji had only revealed some information to him. Some of this information was useful, and some of it was useless.
The two of them were not familiar with each other, and they had even fought before.
Under such circumstances, was there a need to care about Wu Liji?
"But if I don't do anything about it, won't the business partner that I just contacted be gone?"
[In the end, you still want to take a look.]
"I mainly want to loot the crates."
Lü Luo smiled, took out a mask from his ring, and put it on his face.
Just as he was about to leave, the Observer suddenly prompted him.
[Wait a minute, look at your mask.]
"On the mask?"
Lü Luo took it down doubtfully, only to find that there was a petal on the mask.
Petal? This kind of thing was not rare in the Empire. There were too many of them everywhere.
However, the problem was that Lü Luo had never encountered this kind of petal in the areas he had been to.
"Is there a problem with this petal?"
[The areas you have set foot in do not have this kind of petal.]
Lü Luo frowned slightly. Did this mean that … it suddenly appeared?
"This mask is different from the last one … This is a crying mask."
[I know that you have never used this mask before.]
Lü Luo fell silent again. It was difficult for the Observer's information to be wrong, although it was not 100% infallible.
However, compared to his own memory, the probability of the Observer making a mistake was too small.
"When I bought it, it was stained with petals?"
[There are no flowers in the Fourth Ring of the Wasteland Alliance, only green plants. You bought this mask in the Fourth Ring.
Even in the Fifth Ring, there are no similar plants.
This kind of petal is unique to the Church.]
Lü Luo saw this and understood the Observer's meaning.
"This petal is unique to the Church … it appeared out of thin air?"
He suddenly looked at his ring, Noah's Star, an item that could be called a divine artifact.
If it were not for Noah's Star, his convenience would be far from what it was today.
His fighting style would not be as free and easy as now.
Carrying a big sword on his back would be a common occurrence.
Then the question was, could there be a problem with Noah's Star?
Lü Luo immersed his consciousness in the space of the ring.
The space of the ring was not particularly large. Lü Luo's consciousness moved a little in it and touched the edge.
However, he did not find any useful clues here.
Everything was normal.
If that was the case, why would there be petals unique to the Church in the ring?
"Is there a way to analyze it?"
[Insufficient information.]
"Then let's put this matter aside for the time being."
Lü Luo nodded. Since there were no clues, he would wait until today's matter was over.
When the time came, he would pour out all the things in the ring and sort them out one by one. The situation should be much clearer.
At the same time when Lü Luo discovered the abnormality of the ring …
In the First Ring of the Wasteland Alliance, Luo Dan was looking at a piece of iron debris in front of her.
"Where did this thing come from?"
Luo Dan's voice was a little strange. It was low and hoarse.
It was no longer full of vitality and life like before.
And what she asked was not a human, but a mechanical bird with insect wings.
"I don't know, my master."
"Hmph, ashes."
Luo Dan suddenly twisted the iron piece in her hand, injected a powerful force into the debris, and then shook the debris into powder.
At the same time, Lü Luo, who was about to make a move, shook his body.
He felt some discomfort, but he could not tell what it was.
[What's wrong with you?]
"I feel like something in me has been destroyed. It's a very strange feeling."
[For now, your body's condition is not abnormal.]
Lü Luo frowned slightly. He also felt that his body was not abnormal, but that feeling just now was too obvious.
"Strange things are really getting more and more."
Putting this matter aside for the time being, Lü Luo had already moved to the ground floor of the Administration Building.
The silent march had begun.
Something seemed to have happened on the roof of the Administration Building.
When Lü Luo arrived at the second floor, he found that the Princess's messenger had fainted beside the elevator.
Lü Luo wanted to wake her up, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.
Even if he woke the maid up, Lü Luo did not have a suitable identity to do this.
After thinking about it, he decided to deal with it himself.
…
Just as he reached the stairs of the top floor, a guard saw Lü Luo.
He was slightly stunned, as if he was surprised by Lü Luo's sudden appearance here.
But his quality did not make him hesitate for too long.
The guard immediately sounded the alarm and roared in a low voice.
"Enemy attack!"
Lü Luo responded with a small knife that was not too sharp. It was the kind used to cut fruits on the coffee table downstairs.
This kind of weapon was somewhat laughable in front of an Extraordinaire.
But in Lü Luo's hands, it was different.
The spiral combination of Qi made this small knife become an invincible divine weapon in a short period of time.
It easily pierced through the guard's protective energy and directly pierced through his heart. Then, it was nailed to the wall and shattered into pieces.
Ordinary knives could not withstand Lü Luo's power.
After unleashing this attack, Lv Luo quickly walked forward. He reached out and twisted the other person's neck four times. The other person's head almost fell off.
After he killed two people in one move.
The assassins here also walked out one after another. They looked at Lü Luo warily and sent people to rush toward Lü Luo.
"What happened tonight can't be exposed. Let's kill him first."
Lü Luo smiled. As expected! These people were here for Wu Liji.
But kill him?
"Hehe, if you want to kill me, you can try."
Lü Luo pulled out the saber of the dead person beside him. His fingers trembled slightly. Because of Fenrir's damage, he had not focused on using his sword skills for a long time.
But this time, he had the urge to explode with inspiration.
He desperately wanted to use his sword skills to kill all the enemies in front of him.
Thunder Breath, flashed.
The magnificent sword energy passed through the corridor, smashed the wall, shattered the glass, and sent the outer wall on one side of the corridor flying.
The extraordinaires that the thunder sword energy passed by were all cut in half by Lü Luo. They couldn't be more dead.
Unlike the previous state of concealment, Lü Luo's battle fluctuations had already aroused the vigilance of a large number of government officials.
The members of the Inspection Department had already rushed here one after another.
The unknown assassins in front of him were obviously panicking.
However, they did not retreat. In Lü Luo's eyes, they were unwilling to give up.
"Since you're not going to leave, then don't leave."
With a shake of his saber, Lü Luo charged forward again.
The messy saber light seemed to be dancing without any order. Anyone who approached him would immediately have a leg or an arm cut off and fall to the ground in a daze.
This matter was very strange, so Lü Luo was prepared to leave a large number of people alive.
Perhaps he would not have the chance to interrogate them, but the people from the Inspection Department would definitely help him do this well.
When the time came, he would just ask Zhang Zhangming.
Heh, Old Zhang was indeed a perfect tool.
"For the sake of our ideals, kill!"
Lü Luo was suddenly stunned. Why did these people's slogans feel a little strange?
Although he was somewhat puzzled, his hands did not hesitate in the slightest.
The slaughter continued. Lü Luo killed one person with two slashes and continued to charge at the entrance of the corridor.
These people had no intention of escaping, so he did not reject them and killed everyone he met.
Until a Fifth Grade extraordinaire appeared in front of Lü Luo!
"Sequence?"
That's right. Lü Luo felt the fluctuations of a Sequence from this person in front of him.
Such a person was truly a rare species in the Empire.
"Intruder, don't even think about taking another step forward!"
"Intruder?"
This name made Lü Luo feel even more strange.
[Are you …]
"No."
Lü Luo denied. How could he admit to such a thing?
Even if he was wrong, he would not admit it.
Even if his identity was exposed, he was now the recruiter of Her Highness the Empress and had a certain level of responsibility as a guard.
Wasn't it normal for a guard to kill these people of unknown origins?
In addition, these people's words just now about ideals and whatnot must be something done by a cult.
It was most likely those gray-robed people.
What problem could there be to kill a wave of gray-robed people?
Therefore, after Lü Luo figured out the crux of the matter, the saber in his hand became even sharper.
Although it was a saber, Lü Luo's current skills were no longer limited to the form of a weapon.
Sword Heart Second Style – Overflowing Rain.
More and more lightning sword auras fell on the face and body of the Fifth Grade extraordinaire in front of him like raindrops.
If there were spectators in this battle, they would roughly understand what a killing spree was!
Every tiny lightning sword aura would explode into a cloud of blood mist on this person's body.
The rotating Qi-He, accompanied by the cutting of lightning, was like a miniature meat grinder.
They wreaked havoc on this Fifth Grade expert's body.
After the sword aura blew up the entire corridor, Wu Liji, who was in the deepest part of the room, walked out with another person.
Wu Liji was speechless when she saw this shocking scene.
Today's meeting was because Wu Liji wanted to hand over a very important item to the gray-robed person.
Then, she would not contact the gray-robed person for a short period of time.
That was because she needed to focus on working with Lü Luo and accumulating strength in the following period of time.
While borrowing Lü Luo's strength, she would also develop herself.
However, she did not expect such a thing to happen in this handover.
The gray-robed pilgrim was already prepared to die in battle. No matter what, they had to deliver this item.
However, they did not expect the enemy to be so powerful!
Could it be Zhang Zhangming himself?
That's not right. Zhang Zhangming should be eating with the mayor now. This was the news they received.
Since it was not Zhang Zhangming, who was this person?
Lü Luo looked at the gray-robed person who was standing side by side with Wu Liji and stuck out his tongue in his heart.
What else could they do now that the fight had come this far? Pretend not to know him!
Other than that, there didn't seem to be any other way.
He raised the machete in his hand and pointed it at Wu Liji and the other Sixth Grade gray-robed person with a cold gaze.
Wu Liji looked at Lü Luo and felt that this crying masked person in front of her was somewhat familiar.
However, she could not be sure that this person was Lü Luo.
Moreover, even if she was sure, she could not say it out loud now.
Their relationship and cooperation were too messy.
No matter what, she had to deliver the item now.
"You go first. I'll stop him."
"You … be careful."
The gray-robed man clearly knew that with Wu Liji's status, there was a high chance that she would not die.
However, it was hard to say what would happen in the future.
Lü Luo did not stop the gray-robed man from leaving. However, Lü Luo stared at his back for a while, as if he wanted to remember this person.
After the gray-robed man left his sight, Lü Luo turned to look at Wu Liji again.
"Lü Luo!"
"Ah?" Lü Luo still wanted to play dumb, but Wu Liji did not give him the chance.
"You've killed many people. They were all my companions, my brothers!
We're only here today to make a final handover, to end things once and for all.
Why are you doing this? "
"Sigh, no matter what, I'm still your recruiter.
A group of unidentified Extraordinaries came to Her Highness' side.
As a recruiter, isn't it only right to save the Princess and expel these people? "
"You did it on purpose?"
Wu Liji gritted her teeth. The fragile alliance between the two of them seemed to be showing signs of collapse again.
However, Lü Luo really did not want any more twists and turns at this time.
He had already killed so many people. He should give Wu Liji some face.
"Alright, alright, alright. I admit my mistake. Don't be angry.
I really didn't do it on purpose. When I first discovered them, I really thought they were here to assassinate you.
That was why I snuck over.
Who knew that they would choose to attack as soon as they saw me? I was worried that you would be in danger, so I killed them all. "
Lü Luo's explanation was reasonable, and it made Wu Liji feel a little helpless.
If he was really worried about her safety and caused such a misunderstanding, what was she?
"You …"
Before Wu Liji could continue, Lü Luo interrupted her again.
"Actually, you only have yourself to blame for this matter. You should have told me about your meeting here in advance.
At the same time, you should have told me the details of the matter, and this wouldn't have happened.
In the end, it's still because we don't trust each other enough.
Don't you think so? "
Looking at the unreasonable Lü Luo, Wu Liji's chest heaved violently.
She was angry, but anger was useless.
She wanted to vent, but she could not beat Lü Luo.
At this moment, other than helplessness, she had no better way to vent.
"Get out!"
"The people from the Inspection Department are coming soon. There are still some people here."
"I told you to get out."
"Okay, okay, okay. Don't be angry. I'm leaving. Bye."
Lü Luo casually glanced at the extraordinary humans whose hands and feet had been chopped off by him. In the end, he suppressed his killing intent.
He did not directly take action to eliminate these people forever.
It was better to leave the rest to the Inspection Department and Zhang Zhangming.
As for himself, he had a better place to go.
Hehe!
…
Standing on the roof of a building at the edge of a city, Lü Luo looked in a direction in the forest and remained silent.
[Aren't you going to chase?]
Lü Luo took out his watch and looked at the time.
12: 41 pm. It was not late enough.
"Wait a little longer. There might be a greater harvest."
He continued to wait until around 1: 30 pm before suddenly opening his eyes.
"It's about time."
At the same time, in the forest, the gray-robed leader took the jar that Wu Liji had given him and walked to a huge ancient tree.
He looked around and confirmed that there was no one else.
The gray-robed man quietly chanted an incantation.
"Gluttony, waste, addiction, drunkenness, hoarding, all of these things should not appear in this world.
Only with sincerity can one obtain peace. "
After chanting the incantation, the old tree suddenly moved.
"Welcome back, Your Excellency Gray Robe."
A tree door slowly opened.
After the gray-robed man walked into the tree door, red eyes appeared on another tree.
His scarlet eyes always gave people a kind of scalp tingling feeling.
