"Hmm?"
Lin Sheng was testing the Steel Lord's ability in the unfinished building.
Suddenly, he felt that the connection between him and Khadula was faintly discernible. It was as if something was blocking their soul connection.
"A Redwinian elite?" Lin Sheng closed his eyes as he focused his mind, vaguely sensing that Khadula was in trouble.
"Redwinian had suffered the loss the last time, and they still dare to make a move this time. They must be well prepared. Khadula … cannot die … "Lin Sheng thought for a moment.
He was a little worried about this level of combat power. If it died, and he could not summon it again, it would be a huge loss.
So if he could avoid death, he would try his best to avoid it.
"I'll let the Steel Lord try." He thought for a moment. He looked at the old man who was waiting quietly by the side.
Lin Sheng's heart skipped a beat as he sent a command through his mind.
The Steel Lord was a part of his consciousness, and he was controlling it. After receiving the command, he bowed slightly before turning into black smoke and dissipating.
"Let's hope he can be saved." Since the Steel Lord had been summoned, there was no need to use Khadula's distraction method.
Lin Sheng planned to let Khadula return, and let the Steel Lord take over.
Compared to Khadula, the Steel Lord's loyalty and obedience were far superior.
After all, he was a true knight.
And Lin Sheng was also curious, as a councilor level elite of Blackfeather City, how powerful was the Steel Lord?
He paused for a moment, and began to tidy up the trash left behind from the summoning ritual.
* Woo woo woo … *
Police sirens could be heard outside. Cars quickly stopped in the middle of the road.
The officers got out of their cars, pulled out their guns, and rushed into a yellow villa on the left of the unfinished building.
Lin Sheng tidied up the most crucial ritual diagram, and walked to the window to look down.
The villa had been cordoned off with yellow police tape. A Fatso who looked like a sergeant was holding a walkie-talkie, and seemed to be talking to the officers inside.
Not long after, a faint fluctuation of dark powers came from the villa. Then, it quickly dissipated.
A few auxiliary police officers carried bodies out of the villa.
"Seems like Xylond is not as peaceful as I thought." Lin Sheng thought. Back in the living room.
After hiding the silver powder, he leisurely went downstairs.
This time, there were no more strange phenomena.
There were quite a few barbecue stalls along the way back.
Signs were hung or erected, stating barbecued seafood, barbecued vegetables, and all kinds of nourishment.
Lin Sheng also felt a little hungry. He hadn't eaten outside for a long time. He found a stall that had a decent number of customers and sat down.
"Boss, give me some skewers. Fifteen small octopus skewers, two eggplants, and a serving of squid rice. " Lin Sheng liked the taste of the kebabs here. In general, Xylond had a spicy taste. Many spices were added to suppress the fishy smell of the seafood.
After some thought, he added another sentence.
"Make it heavy and spicy."
"Sure. The stall owner smiled and gave him a thumbs up. "My Heavy Spicy Sauce isn't just any spicy dish."
"It's okay, I'm used to it. Normal chilies are tasteless to me." Lin Sheng told the truth. The Crag Dragon bloodline in his body had strengthened his sensitivity to scorching stimuli.
As a result, he couldn't feel any spiciness at all.
"Sure." The owner picked up the skewers of grilled octopus, smeared them with a layer of bright red chili sauce, and roasted them over the charcoal fire.
He sat for a while.
There were more and more people at the stall, and more people were ordering food. The owner was a little busy.
Lin Sheng originally sat at a table by himself, but there were no seats left, so two people shared a table.
"You don't mind if we eat together?" A man dressed like an office worker in a black suit sat at the table opposite Lin Sheng.
"Up to you." Lin Sheng nodded.
"Thank you." The man thanked him and ordered a glass of beer and a few oysters. He peeled raw garlic and put it in his mouth to chew slowly.
Lin Sheng couldn't help but look at him.
Most people didn't eat oysters with raw garlic. Moreover, it was the first time he saw someone eating barbecue as if it was a formal meal.
He was meticulous, chewing carefully and swallowing slowly.
Halfway through the meal, Lin Sheng put down the octopus in his hand and reached for the free tea.
"Young man, did you just come out from that unfinished building?" The man's sudden words made him pause.
"Yes. I rented a house there. "
Lin Sheng was very calm. There was nothing to hide.
"I heard that it's haunted." The man sighed. "I was nearby. When I saw you come out, I knew you must have been tricked."
"Tricked? Maybe. "Lin Sheng poured himself a glass of water and drank it in one gulp.
"Give me some too." The man smiled and reached for the cup.
Lin Sheng poured it for him. The man thanked him.
"I remember when I was young, I used to live in this building. The reason is very simple. The rent is cheap. "The man smiled and said casually. "Unfortunately …"
"Unfortunately what happened?"
"Unfortunately, something happened later. Life is unpredictable … "The man's eyes were sad." At that time, I made up my mind that I must make a name for myself. I must make a name for myself. That can be considered my dream … "
"Dream?" Lin Sheng's eyes flickered.
"Young man, what is your dream?" The man asked casually.
"My dream … to live more freely …" Lin Sheng answered lightly.
"More freely? Well said. "The man laughed." This is not an easy goal. You have to pay a lot to be able to see the hope of success. "
"It's okay. I'm still young." Lin Sheng added.
"It's good to be young. Come, let's have a toast. "
The two of them clinked their teacups and took a sip.
"Did you see the villa that had an accident over there?" The man put down the cup and said, "Some people are too greedy. They want more after getting more. Then something happened. And some people don't want it even if they give it to him. If they give it to him for free, he will be suspected. And some people think that they are harming him when they give it to him. "
Lin Sheng did not say a word and just listened.
"That's why I said that humans are really complicated creatures …" The man sighed.
Lin Sheng followed his gaze and saw that the man was looking at a young police officer outside the villa.
The police officer looked righteous. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. His eyes were bright as if he had endless energy.
"Actually, humans aren't complicated at all," Lin Sheng said.
"Oh?" The man shifted his gaze and looked at Lin Sheng, waiting for him to answer.
"Everyone has something they want. He doesn't want it because what you give him isn't what he wants. This is very simple, "Lin Sheng explained calmly.
"That makes sense …" The man thought about it. It seemed that he didn't quite understand this simple logic.
"It's nice talking to you." He smiled. "Then, how do you make someone who rejects you accept you again?"
Lin Sheng thought about it.
"Why would he reject you?"
"Because of my natural identity …" The man smiled bitterly.
"Knock him out and drag him away?" Lin Sheng thought about it and said.
