The premise for Lü Luo to kill a Rank-8 monster was that the gray-robed pilgrim had summoned a Rank-8 monster.
What were these gray-robed pilgrims trying to do by summoning a Rank-8 monster in the Western District?
Wu Liji was silent for a long time. Lü Luo could not wait any longer.
"Can anyone tell me how much this Mirror Lake water can be sold for?
We might be able to dig out some from the pit in the ground over there. "
Lü Luo looked pitiful, but Wu Liji and Zhang Zhangming ignored him.
Lü Luo saw that Wu Liji was frustrated and knew that he could not let Zhang Zhangming continue to force him.
Although the relationship between the three of them was very complicated, at the end of the day, they could not let one of them completely collapse.
This was the basic principle of the relationship between the three of them.
"Don't be so serious. The matter has already been resolved. There's no need to discuss this at this time.
You know how strong I am. I'm very strong, so there's no need to care so much about these small matters. "
Lü Luo's tone was very arrogant, but after hearing his words, Wu Liji and Zhang Zhangming did not refute him.
That's right!
Lü Luo's strength was actually so strong.
The gray-robed pilgrim's scheme was directly destroyed by Lü Luo. Was he considered a hero of the entire Western District?
And a nameless hero at that?
Zhang Zhangming rubbed his fingers and felt that something was not right.
However, after thinking about it, he still spoke.
"I'll get you a Good Citizen Medal later."
Lü Luo: "?"
【？】
Were all the people in the Inspection Department so realistic?
"Is there a bonus?"
"The department is lacking resources now. Things like bonuses are not popular."
"If you don't have money, just say that you don't have money. Don't do all those fancy things, okay?
Good Citizen Award, I can't believe you guys came up with it. "
After this, the atmosphere between the three of them improved slightly.
However, Wu Liji still remained silent and did not speak.
At this moment, Zhang Zhangming continued.
"Your Highness, I know you might have some lofty and great ideals.
However, everyone's vision is different. When you're carrying out your lofty ideals, it's best to look around.
Otherwise, it would be easy to be deceived by others.
Have you ever thought about what would happen if the Eighth Grade monster that Lü Luo mentioned was really hiding in the West District?
With the help of the large scale combat ability of controlling the Treants, if it were to attack Gui Xi, Coal City.
How many people will die in the entire Noble Western District? "
Wu Liji could not answer Zhang Zhangming's question. In the past, she had never doubted the purpose and purity of Gray Robe.
But this time … it was truly different.
Not to mention the killings, just the forest fire in front of her had made her change her view of the Inspection Department's actions.
This was an organized and disciplined collective rescue.
Could it really be carried out by relying on an existence like Gray Robe?
The Inspection Department was indeed a nightmare for many societies.
However, in the hearts of ordinary people, the Inspection Department was a great existence.
They protected the order of the entire Empire, preventing ordinary people from being bullied by Extraordinaire Societies.
If superhumans were considered humans, then weren't ordinary people considered humans as well?
Also, as a core member of the Gray Robe, she did not even know the purpose of the Gray Robe Pilgrim. What were they trying to do?
"Sigh!"
Wu Liji sighed deeply, as if she did not want to talk about today's matter anymore.
However, Lü Luo suddenly asked at this moment.
"Hey, what's in the jar you gave them tonight?"
"Jar?" Zhang Zhangming did not know about this and looked at Wu Liji as well.
Wu Liji originally did not want to answer this question, but at this moment, she had already thought through many things.
"That jar contains the soul of a member of the royal family."
"What?"
"Turtle, you even brought the ashes of your ancestors here. You're too showy."
Lü Luo's words made Wu Liji speechless. These words were too harsh, although he was not wrong.
"Then can you tell me what's special about the soul of the royal family?
What special use does Gray Robe have for this kind of thing?
Is that Eighth Grade plant related to the soul of the royal family? "
"Sorry, I really don't know about this."
Wu Liji could not answer Lü Luo's question at all.
As one of Gray Robe's cadres, she originally thought that she already knew a lot of things and understood the true meaning and truth of this world.
However, after today, she realized that there were still many things that she did not know.
If Dan Kun and Elder were still here, would they give her a reasonable explanation?
"Does Minister Zhang have any insider information?"
"The matters of the royal family have never been exposed."
Zhang Zhangming shook his head.
"Alright then. That's about it for today. Does Minister Zhang need to report it?"
Lü Luo did not care much about Gray Robe's matters.
In fact, as his strength increased, the threat of powerful individuals to him became smaller and smaller.
What truly made him feel fear and what he needed to be afraid of was still the powerful national machinery.
For example, the Inspection Department!
"Of course, such a big matter needs to be reported."
"Then about the part about me …"
Lü Luo looked at Zhang Zhangming sneakily. Zhang Zhangming rolled his eyes and nodded.
"I know what to do. I'll think of a way to erase your information.
Moreover, this time, you're also working for the Western District. I can't let people who truly work for the people suffer unfair treatment. "
The more Zhang Zhangming said this, the more upset Wu Liji felt.
"Minister Zhang, if there's anything I can help with, feel free to ask."
"There's no need, Your Highness. You should go back and have a good rest.
If you can, you'd better think about what you want. "
After the conversation between the three of them ended, the Inspection Department also brought a large number of Extraordinaires to clean up the area.
Too many people had seen the traces of the battle between Lü Luo and the black vine, so it was definitely impossible to hide it.
After returning to Coal Capital, Zhang Zhangming described Lü Luo as an unknown hidden expert in the Inspection Department.
Many members of the Inspection Department could accept such an explanation.
Anyway, they did not know who Lü Luo was, so they just followed along and bragged.
After handing in the report, Zhang Zhangming began to think seriously for the first time. Lü Luo was so powerful.
He and Hitomi Hakuzuki were together and took root in the Western District. What exactly were they trying to do?
"The two of them … can't be thinking of rebelling, right?
Is Lü Luo really reliable? "
This seemed to be an unbelievable idea.
But after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be possible?
With Lü Luo's age and talent, his future achievements would definitely be limitless.
And Hitomi Hakuzuki was the successor of the royal family.
If she was dissatisfied with the royal family, she was qualified to replace them.
This was the ancestral teachings that had always existed since the establishment of the new empire.
Although the four royal families had been tormented by the royal family.
But if Lü Luo and Hitomi Hakuzuki were to develop quietly, then they …
"Thinking about it carefully, the two of them seem to be more dangerous than the gray-robed man?"
Zhang Zhangming hesitated again. If his guess was correct and Hitomi Hakuzuki really wanted to rebel, then which side should he stand on?
"Sigh, I hope that day comes later."
…
On the other side, Wu Liji brought Lü Luo back to the new residence that the Inspection Department had arranged for them.
When they returned, the sky was already bright.
Wu Liji did not let Lü Luo leave. She asked him to stay and asked a few questions:
"What you said last night was true?"
"You still don't believe me?"
"It's not that I don't believe you … but you shouldn't be so strong."
"You're not me. How do you know that I shouldn't be so strong?"
Wu Liji did not know how to explain, but she definitely had her reasons for saying this.
The royal family had repeatedly researched the structure of the human body. At the age of 22, no matter how talented one was, one should not be able to reach the level of Lü Luo.
This was caused by the structure of the human body. It had nothing to do with whether one was a genius or not.
Unless Lü Luo was not human, a normal human would definitely not be able to reach this height.
"Forget it, I can't explain it clearly even if I explain it to you.
Lü Luo, I seem to be a little confused. "
Wu Liji looked a little weak, but Lü Luo's reaction was also very real.
"Crawl, don't touch me, and don't pretend with me. We're not that close. Stay away from me."
"Are you a man or not?"
"I don't need to tell you whether I'm a man or not. My wife is happy every day."
Wu Liji was a little speechless. She did not know if she should continue contacting Gray Robe.
Therefore, she wanted Lü Luo to help her investigate Gray Robe, but this guy actually did not take the bait. Damn it …
Wu Liji was a little angry out of humiliation. What happened tonight had already made her suspicious of her previous actions.
Now, Lü Luo did not know how to comfort her and appease her. He even deliberately angered her.
No matter what, Wu Liji was a princess. Since she was young, she had never been angered like this.
"Lü Luo, you f * cking …"
"Hey, hey, you're a princess. Pay attention to your words.
Be civilized and polite, you know?
Besides, what's the use of you being unreasonable with me here?
Can you beat me? "
Hearing Lü Luo's words, Wu Liji's expression became even more bitter.
It was impossible to beat him, so what should she do now?
The matter with Gray Robe was not over. If Dan Kun came looking for her again, should she reject him or continue to agree?
"Lü Luo, help me!"
This time, Wu Liji was very sincere.
"How?"
Wu Liji did not say anything. She took out a cell phone, dialed a number, and then hung up.
After waiting for a few seconds, she dialed again.
"Hello, it's me!"
Looking at Wu Liji's expression, Lü Luo instantly guessed her identity.
He did not say anything, nor did he show any surprise. He only sat closer to Wu Liji and quietly listened to their conversation.
"Liji, are you alright?"
Dan Kun's voice was a little worried and puzzled.
He was indeed very worried about Wu Liji's safety and was also very puzzled as to why the black vines' movements had ended.
A Tier 8 Monster King should not have only made such a small commotion.
Was it asleep? Or did it find a place to hide and recover its strength?
What was with the fire from before?
Dan Kun had many questions. He and the Elder had already left this area, so at this moment, he could only get the answer from Wu Liji.
"I'm fine."
Wu Liji's voice was a little cold. Dan Kun thought that she was angry, so he explained,
"Liji, it's all thanks to you this time. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have succeeded.
I'll report your contributions truthfully. This time, you've really been wronged. "
Wronged? Contributions?
Wu Liji felt that it was a little ridiculous. She was the empress. Did she need Gray Robe to give her contributions?
In this world, in this country, other than her father, who else could give her contributions? Make her feel wronged?
Wu Liji suddenly saw Lü Luo, who was eavesdropping with his ears stretched out.
Alright, except for Lü Luo, this b * stard.
"Dan Kun, don't say such useless words. I never joined Gray Robe for the sake of contributions.
Also, can you tell me now what you want the soul of the royal family for? "
Hearing Wu Liji's question, Dan Kun clearly fell silent.
Could it be that he had to say that it was to remove the seal on the black vines?
That was definitely not possible.
Dan Kun's original idea was to wait for Wu Liji to discover that the black vines had attacked Coal Capital before telling her the truth.
Since such a thing had already happened, Wu Liji naturally could not say anything.
But now, the black vines had run off to who knows where, and Wu Liji asked directly. Dan Kun really did not know how to answer for a moment.
"Liji, this matter is a long story."
"Can't you say it?"
"It's not that I can't say it, it's just …"
"Did you really summon that plant ball? What's its name? "
"Plant ball?"
Dan Kun was obviously stunned for a moment. He suddenly realized some problems, the problem with the black vines!
"Liji, what do you mean by plant ball?"
"That Tier 8 plant ball, the one sealed in the water of Mirror Lake."
When Wu Liji said this, she was already gnashing her teeth. If she did not want to know Dan Kun's current location, she would have long cursed.
"Liji, do you already know?! The matter of the black vines … "
"It's called the black vines?"
"Yes, but I didn't know about this matter before. It was all planned by the elders.
The empire needs to be reshuffled and needs to feel pain.
The existence of the black vines is to make this country feel pain. "
Dan Kun's words made Wu Liji feel despair.
As the empress, why should she make this country feel pain?
This country itself was her home.
She just could not agree with the royal family, not that she did not agree with this country.
"Do you want to use it to destroy the Western District? A Tier 8 Monster King?
In exchange for an abandoned city, is this your goal? "
"Liji, I didn't mean to hide it from you. Our original idea was to immediately drag you out after the black vines attacked Coal Capital.
But now, the development of the matter is beyond our expectations.
Liji, can you tell me the current situation of Coal Capital? "
Wu Liji was about to say that the black vines had already been killed, but Lü Luo, who was beside her, hurriedly gestured to her.
[Ask, where, is, he!]
Wu Liji was silent for a moment. If she agreed to Lü Luo, then Lü Luo would definitely rush over and kill Dan Kun and the elders, or capture them.
This meant a complete break between her and Gray Robe.
However, thinking about it carefully …
The current her seemed to have nothing to say to Gray Robe.
"Dan Kun, where are you?"
