Waters near Huaisha Port.
On a medium-sized warship.
"What?! Go back?! "
Baldy stared at his companion in disbelief.
"I've just opened up a path here, and the higher-ups want us to go back?!"
Kameh's expression did not change.
"Celine has given in, but on the condition that all offshore warships leave, so we have no work to do for the time being."
"That's it?" Baldy could not imagine how much the greedy nobles in the country had to eat to be willing to give such an order.
"That's it." Kameh did not care. He had only been here on vacation, and it was Baldy who did all the work.
"Then the Bluebird we lost …" Baldy asked.
"There will be compensation when we go back," Kameh replied casually. "But it seems to be a temporary transfer. It's just a show for other countries. "
"Like Miga?" Baldy suddenly understood.
"Yes. Celine signed the treaty and agreed to most of the terms. In a short period of time, countries will be restraining each other, so there should be nothing to do. "Kameh shrugged.
"We've been working so hard out there, and the higher-ups just gave us a word and we quit?" Baldy's anger could not be quelled.
"There's still a chance." Kameh patted his partner on the shoulder. "How about we get our hands on that secret technique before we leave?"
"No … The blue-haired one is in Huaisha!" Baldy gritted his teeth.
"Then there's no other way." Kameh turned around and went back to his room.
Baldy was left alone on the deck, watching the crew adjust the rudder and prepare to leave.
They were just passengers, and the real decision on whether to leave was actually the captain of the ship.
"What the hell!" Baldy was speechless.
Without a large-scale search, it would take too much time and energy to find those hidden masters in Huaisha.
After a long time.
He stood on the side of the ship and let out a long sigh. He finally gave up.
"Forget it, at least I've planted some spies, and they'll be back in a few months. Then I'll harvest them all! "
That was all he could do to comfort himself. Otherwise, whenever he thought of the Bluebird he had invested in, his heart would ache.
…
…
The next day.
Celine and the five countries signed the Moon Sea Treaty at the same time.
The specific content of the treaty was unknown, but the tension along the coastline and borders was indeed alleviated.
Although he did not know what price the upper echelons had paid, peace had descended once again.
Lin Sheng didn't have time to care about this.
Ever since he left Snowgale Castle, the dream had remained in the same place. There was no progress.
In the real world, after treating Shen Yan to a feast, he spent most of his time training Saint power and meditating on the Ashen Seal.
In addition, under the bed in the dream, he found the shield, the greatsword, and the book that he had brought with him.
After that, there was no more trouble in the dream home that was filled with red light.
Time passed slowly.
Soon, the final exam arrived.
Lin Sheng easily got an above average score, which could be considered as an explanation to his family. After that, he accompanied his parents at home and began to prepare for the New Year.
The winter holidays lasted for two weeks.
Although it wasn't much, it was still a long holiday. The family planned to invite familiar relatives over to have a meal together. For this New Year's meal, Lin Zhounian and Selina started preparing early.
And Lin Sheng, other than helping out, spent the rest of his time training and studying the Deviltongue in the dream, or going to the Iron Fist Society to check on the progress.
The Iron Fist Society already had new martial artists planning to come over to check on the situation.
The Death Claw had gone out to roam one round, and it was obvious that it had shocked the others. The development of the Iron Fist Society was just around the corner.
Everything else had returned to normal, and life seemed to have returned to its original state, quiet and peaceful.
He prepared all kinds of things at home for the New Year. His sister, Lin Xiao, also called back. She had already bought a train ticket and was on her way back.
Lin Xiao was attending university in another city, and he heard that she had a boyfriend this time. Unfortunately, she didn't plan to bring her boyfriend home.
* Beep beep … *
The sound of car horns rang out incessantly.
Lin Xiao had just walked out of the train station, dragging her suitcase. The train had arrived early, or else she would have seen Lin Sheng and Papa picking her up.
Mixing with the crowd, she didn't choose to take a bus home at the station entrance, but walked out with her suitcase.
The cars at the station entrance were the most expensive.
Those cars had been waiting there for so long, obviously not to pick up passengers like her, who were not far away.
Some cars were rip-offs, some were carpooling, and some only ran long distances.
Lin Xiao found it troublesome, so she simply dragged her suitcase out of the train station, walked into the city, and then took a bus back.
She wanted to be thrifty, as the family's expenses had been high recently. After she fell in love, her expenses were also much higher than before. She also had to take care of her brother at home, and occasionally give him some pocket money.
She had to be thrifty.
Dragging the suitcase, she walked and stopped, and when she felt tired, she would sit on the suitcase to rest. Although very tired, when she thought of saving a lot of money, she felt it was worth it.
But when she walked to a crossroad, while waiting for the traffic light, she found that the zipper of her suitcase was unzipped. She squatted down and reached out to pull it back.
Just as she stood up, she suddenly heard a sudden braking sound behind her.
Then, there was a loud bang.
Lin Xiao felt a behemoth rushing out from behind him on the right side.
It was a small white car.
It was like a wild horse out of control, fiercely scraping her right leg, and her whole body fell hard. She rolled on the ground a few times, lying on her back on the cement floor, unable to move.
Dark red blood slowly seeped out from under Lin Xiao's body.
The door of the white car opened, and a drunk man reeking of alcohol got out.
"You hit someone!" A voice came from the car.
"I'm not dead, it's just a graze, it's okay, it's okay!" The drunk man waved his hand, unconcerned, got back into the car, and drove away.
Lin Xiao lay on the ground alone, her suitcase overturned a few meters away.
The black and white checkered shirt she was wearing was gradually dyed red by the blood. The black trousers she was wearing also became very dirty.
Occasionally, people would stop to watch, but after a few glances, they quickly sped up and left.
Lin Xiao felt cold all over, and her lips gradually lost color.
She struggled to stand up, but there was no strength in her body. Her head was also dizzy, and she felt a little nauseous.
More and more people gathered around, but all of them just formed a circle far away, pointing at her and whispering.
No one came to help.
Sigh.
A black car slowly drove by. It seemed to have seen the situation on Lin Xiao's side.
The car had clearly gone by, but it reversed a distance.
The car door opened, and a young man and a woman dressed in expensive clothes got out. They quickly walked towards Lin Xiao, and squatted down beside her to examine her.
"Car accident? She's lost too much blood! So many people, and all of them just look?! "
The woman suddenly roared angrily.
"A bunch of trash." The man on the side also couldn't help but laugh. He seemed to be very young.
"Little Yong, carry her into the car. Send her to the hospital! "The woman checked Lin Xiao's eyelids and quickly said.
"Okay!"
The two did not mind the blood on their bodies, and quickly carried Lin Xiao into the car, and sped to the nearest hospital.
