The baby dragon of the Lord God’s family was laid off and re-employed, and he reached the peak of his life with a cannon fodder script in hand.

① Overseas students who were falsely a...
"Cough, cough..."
The dirty device was seriously damaged, and streams of blood gushed out from all parts of Si Qi's body like a fountain, filling his throat, causing him to bleed physiologically, and his eyes gradually lost focus.
As the sunlight above his head gradually weakened from the strongest time at 2 pm, the power borrowed before was mercilessly required to be compensated at this moment, and the recovered injuries were concentrated at this moment and all burst out, making up for it at a price ten times or a hundred times. This is the price of making a deal with the taboo.
Si Qi slowly became unable to think, and the chaotic will controlled his body step by step. He could feel that he was about to die, and his reason was about to be submerged by the pollution source, making him a puppet of the seal.
But he didn't dare to let himself lose control, he tried his best to feel the pain so that he could maintain a trace of reason.
He knew that if he completely lost his rationality, his instinct would make him do everything he could to survive.
He would take out the seal and suck all the vitality of this land to replenish himself. He would kill all the humans he saw and suck their blood to fill his own void. He was much stronger without a bottom line than when he was rational, but he was no longer himself at that time.
Si Qi wanted to pull out a weapon to cut his throat with shaking hands, but he couldn't do anything because his bones were all broken and his flesh was shattered. He
could only vaguely see the strange taboo object running around in his head, taking out all kinds of things from a leaf-shaped thing, and doing whatever it wanted to him.
Faintly, he seemed to see Chu Feng's figure. He tried his best to pinch Chu Feng's sleeve with his fingers, and said with a stubborn and fierce look: "Kill... "
Chu Feng said nothing, and hugged Si Qi up. There seemed to be a broken cry in his throat. He trembled and held Si Qi in his arms, and flew away from this tiankeng with him.
Igor was the first one to rush over.
"Captain!!!"
Chu Feng asked without saying anything: "Where is the Sealed Artifact for treatment?!"
Igor cried with joy: "I have it! I have it! I brought it with me!!"
Seeing that Si Qi was still breathing and had not completely lost his mind, Igor had never been so grateful to the gods in heaven as at this moment. He took out the Sealed Artifact, but suddenly remembered the side effects of these things and hesitated for a moment.
The next second, countless figures suddenly appeared in front of the three of them, making Igor's face, who was originally ecstatic, suddenly become extremely gloomy.
But before he could fight with this group of guys, the deputy army commander led dozens of dark figures to their side and shouted: "Take the commander away!"
Igor did not hesitate, and rushed out of the encirclement with Chu Feng under their protection. In the blink of an eye, most of the enemies were thrown away, and only a few people were left behind them and attacked the two.
This group of guys would definitely not miss the great opportunity to kill the leader of the Temple Knights with their own hands, and it was even more impossible for them to sit and watch the forbidden object that was definitely SS-level fall into the hands of the Temple Knights.
But it was useless for them to not let it go. Chu Feng swallowed the crystal-like holy power in one gulp, and the invisible aura spread around him, and in the blink of an eye, the forbidden objects in the hands of these guys were "crushed" into pieces.
Igor was a little flustered when he saw him trying to swallow the holy power, fearing that this guy would fall into a violent state like the emperor, causing all kinds of disasters to happen to the world again.
Who knew that Chu Feng was extremely compatible with this taboo, and he actually controlled the power of the god that the emperor could not control even with great strength in an instant, and controlled it like an arm.
The collective "death" of the taboo made this group of guys who worshipped evil gods crazily and whose brains were already crazy stunned for a long time. They never thought that one day they would fall from "preachers of great gods" back to helpless ordinary people.
Igor knocked them all out without hesitation and threw them to other executors to deal with. He took Si Qi back to their base and carefully put Si Qi back on the bed.
The blood flowing from Si Qi's body quickly dyed the mattress red. Igor took a deep breath, took out the seal with trembling hands, and said to Chu Xun: "The price of this seal is 'pain'. If you want to heal the wound, you will feel a thousand times more pain. Extreme pain will drive people crazy, but I dare not let the adults fall into a coma..."
He didn't know whether Si Qi, who had lost consciousness, would be completely invaded by the pollution. Even if his body was healed by then, if his core was "replaced" by another person, the treatment would be useless and would only bring greater disasters.
Chu Feng: "Give me the thing, and I will use it."
Igor: "No! I want to stay with you!"
Chu Feng: "If he loses his mind, you will be the first to be killed when he feels pain."
"Then I am willing to do it!"
Igor stopped looking at Chu Feng, and after only telling him the possible consequences, he looked at Si Qi on the bed with a distressed look on his face, and pointed the forbidden object at Si Qi's body.
A pale white soft halo swept over Si Qi, looking so gentle.
But in reality, this is more of a seal used to torture prisoners and extract information. When the light enveloped Si Qi, his body shook violently because of the pain in his muscles. He let out a very painful wail from his throat and screamed out loudly. His bone fingers, which were constantly healing, tightly grasped the bed sheet. The next second, just after recovering his strength, he clawed at Igor's throat! Get rid of this damn seal!
Chu Feng immediately stood in front of Igor and carefully held Si Qi's hand.
His palm, which could not be cut by a knife or smashed by an axe, was easily scratched with a few blood marks by Si Qi's seemingly fragile nails. Then these blood marks were healed in the blink of an eye under the powerful recovery power of the divine source.
At this time, Chu Feng had figured out the reason why Si Qi's strength suddenly dropped. He thought uncomfortably that if the captain had not handed over the divine source to him, he would never have been injured to such an extent, and it would not have been so difficult to defeat the emperor.
Even after swallowing the divine source, the captain could have taken a step further and mastered the holy power in his own hands. With the divine source, the captain could definitely master this power more easily than the emperor, and even his chaotic and turbid soul pollution could be effectively suppressed.
To a certain extent, if Chu Feng had not appeared, Si Qi, who was carrying the burden alone, could have relied on various good things to forcibly prolong his life and grit his teeth to hold on to the end. Instead of choosing to give all the good things to the next successor and withdraw himself for Chu Feng's more perfect physique and higher success rate after meeting Chu Feng. For
a moment, Chu Feng even felt that his appearance was like a death warrant. After taking away all the good things from Si Qi, he urged Si Qi to exchange his life for the last and best treasure for him.
Chu Feng held Si Qi's hand tightly, his heart full of guilt.
Then the next second, something happened that made him lose control of his emotions.
Si Qi's whole body was shaking uncontrollably in pain, but his eyes were fixed on him who suddenly appeared in his field of vision, as if Si Qi could recognize who he was even in this extremely crazy state of emotion. She looked at him quietly and obediently, and stayed where she was at his request without moving, accepting the treatment that seemed like a slow process, and was unwilling to take her eyes off him for even a second.
Chu Xun let out a slight sob in his throat, and sat down weakly on the side of Si Qi's bed, looking at Si Qi tenderly, gently stroking Si Qi's bloodstained head, and then kissed him.
Igor saw the two of them looking at each other from the side, with extremely complicated emotions in his eyes. But in the end he did nothing, he just lowered his head unwillingly, his eyes red.
Xiu Xiu didn't pay much attention to the situation outside, he was thinking about how to rescue his master. The small body searched back and forth in the huge space of the world tree leaves, scratching his head and recalling whether this thing could heal Si Qi's body. Once he found one, he quietly controlled the invisible mecha to act on Si Qi, watching the body that was constantly broken and healed recover bit by bit, carefully observing for a long time, and only breathed a sigh of relief after a few hours.
Stupid, stupid, stupid, Xiu Xiu knocked on his head with his noodle-like claws and scolded himself a few times.
Can't you come up with a solution earlier? You have to make the master suffer so much, you big fool!
Seeing Si Qi, who had barely recovered from his injuries, lying weakly on the bed and completely falling into a deep sleep, Xiu Xiu touched Si Qi's direction across the consciousness space and whispered: [You have to get well soon, master]
[Xiu Xiu will always be by your side]
...
While Si Qi was treating his injuries, the deputy captain and others stayed near the base to resist the continuous attacks. After Si Qi confirmed that everything was fine, Chu Feng walked out of the house, his invisible aura emanating from him. He was a little bit unable to control his strength because he had been holding back his anger for too long, and he crushed everyone present in one breath, causing even the executors who were in the same camp as Chu Feng to look at him with fear.
It was not until this moment that Chu Feng realized that he seemed to be more intimidating to this group of people after mastering the new power. If he was just awe-inspiring when he had the divine source before, he was now directly frightening.
As for why Igor was not like this...
maybe the will of human beings can sometimes really be on par with that of gods.
When Chu Feng was initially attractive to all executors, Igor had been immune to his charm and only thought about Si Qi.
Now that Si Qi was seriously injured, Igor's heart was on Si Qi, so he didn't notice any changes in Chu Feng.
Therefore, after Chu Feng swallowed the holy power, he didn't realize the changes in himself until now, and found out how powerful he had become.
After all, it was an existence that allowed an emperor who was not good at fighting to fight the leader to a draw with just a taboo. Now that this taboo was on him, it was particularly compatible with him, so it was not surprising that it could produce such an effect.
Because the holy power changed hands, the overflowing power of rules was well subdued. The natural disasters that occurred all over the world disappeared, and the people all over the world who had suffered two days of disasters finally escaped.
Although the tragedy that happened before cannot be undone, at least the living can still have a future, which is the best answer.
When Si Qi woke up completely, the team, which had been reduced by more than half, could finally return home with peace of mind.
Si Qi, who had regained consciousness, began to handle official business in an orderly manner. The takeover of the land in neighboring countries, post-disaster reconstruction around the world, and the use of Chu Feng's power to effectively strike the living forces of major enemy organizations... these were all things that Si Qi had to worry about.
He didn't have much time left. Even though his body had recovered, he could feel that his mental state was worse than before the battle, and from time to time he would feel like he was about to lose control. This is the sequelae of high-intensity use of the Sealed Object. Si Qi has no way to deal with it. He can only do more things as much as possible while he is still alive and well.
However, the Mirror of Truth, which was fully convinced that Si Qi would definitely die in the battle, was completely confused. It had no idea what power saved Si Qi when the Emperor blew himself up. This is the third time that its prediction has been wrong. If it continues like this, it seriously suspects that it can be renamed the Mirror of Falsehood, because it is not real now.
So, when Si Qi saw it again, the mirror was pretending to cry.
"Are you sad that I am not dead?" Si Qi rarely joked with the Sealed Object.
The Mirror of Reality didn't think this was a joke at all, it was clearly a naked threat! It said in despair: "You made a loophole in my rules. I am no longer the most perfect taboo in the world."
Si Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, knowing that this guy had something to say, and said directly: "Then who is the most perfect taboo now?"
The Mirror of Reality sighed: "One day."
Si Qi: "..."
The Mirror of Reality: "I am a taboo after all. You ask me questions and I don't charge you. Don't I have any face?"
Si Qi: "You don't have to say it."
The Mirror of Reality: "No! I'm going to say it! How can you be so excellent? I want to be sealed by you, like a concubine in the harem who waits for someone to visit me every day, while that guy can stay outside freely and be worshipped as a holy object by a bunch of fools! I want to make it as miserable as me! ! "
Standing behind Si Qi, Chu Feng, who saw the legendary SS-level sealed object "Mirror of Truth" for the first time, smiled and said, "What a unique sealed object."
The Mirror of Truth "looked" at Chu Feng, and subtly did not tease him like it usually teased Si Qi and Igor, and pretended not to see it, and frightened.
Si Qi noticed this detail, but did not point it out. He casually dropped a drop of blood on the mirror, and the mirror sold the All-Knowing Book, which was regarded as the most important holy object by the All-Knowing Church and the origin of their sect's name, and was particularly considerate to indicate the detailed address and destruction method.
"This guy's rules overlap with mine, and I have long disliked it." The Mirror of Truth said in a very bad tone: "Go and destroy it."
However, none of Si Qi and others believed what it said next.
In the unpaid part, every word this guy said could not be believed.
The three of them left the basement full of dangers under the reluctant farewell of the Mirror of Truth, waving his little hand (dynamic expression). Igor said: "It said that the rules of the two taboos overlap, which should be false. Even if there are similarities in the rules, the actual effects are definitely different."
Si Qi: "It took the initiative to release this news, which has already shown that it wants to harm us."
Chu Xun: "But the location and destruction method of the omniscient book are true."
Si Qi nodded: "So this is a conspiracy."
Forbidden objects of the same level as the Mirror of Truth, no matter what the reason, the Temple must contain it.
Xiu Xiu cautiously popped his head out and said to Si Qi: "Master, in fact, as long as the evil god is defeated, the power of these forbidden objects will be weakened. You don't need to worry too much about these things."
He was very worried that Si Qi would encounter some accidents because of these tricky forbidden objects before killing the evil god, which would be putting the cart before the horse.
Si Qi paused and did not answer.
Just when Xiu Xiu subconsciously thought that Si Qi was going to ignore him again, Si Qi suddenly said: [You are really the most peculiar forbidden creature I have ever seen]
Xiu Xiu said aggrievedly: [Xiu Xiu is really not those things... Xiu Xiu was created by the Lord God, and has nothing to do with the evil god...]
Si Qi: [The Lord God you are talking about is Chu Feng? You also said that Chu Feng is the god of this world. So, just like the evil god will cause the birth of forbidden creatures, you are also a being born under the influence of the gods?]
Otherwise, how could the forbidden creature kill the evil god again and again, and even used its magical power to save him in the last battle without him having to pay any price.
Xiu Xiu thought about it and said, "If you think so... it's fine."
Si Qi: "So, the reason why I liked Chu Feng the moment I saw him is the same as why I felt pity for you the moment I saw you. Is it because I am a living being in this world, so I have a natural liking for beings like you."
Xiu Xiu was startled and stood there in a daze, tears falling from her eyes like pearls from a broken string, she sobbed and said, "Xiu Xiu, Xiu Xiu, isn't your master disliked by you?" Wuuwuwuwuwuwu...】
Si Qi saw Xiu Xiu crying pitifully, feeling helpless, and conjured up a hand to stroke Xiu Xiu's ugly head. Then he was slightly surprised by this ability that he didn't know when he learned.
How did he manage to change his shape in such an ethereal place?
Xiu Xiu was a little fool, completely unaware of the "growth" of his master. He habitually rubbed against Si Qi's palm and acted coquettishly, lying in his palm and curled up into a shape that made him feel very safe, ensuring that every corner of himself could be bathed in the master's breath.
Si Qi asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time: [The power you used to save me last time, if you want to use it again, what price do you have to pay?]
Xiu Xiu quickly said: [No, no! It’s just that some things the master has never transformed with the world power before. If you want to take them out, you must use the world power to replace them and turn them into things of this world...】
Xiu Xiu’s words were a bit confusing, but fortunately Si Qi understood: [So the price is the ‘world power’? How can this thing be obtained?]
Xiu Xiu: [You can get it by promoting a better world]
Si Qi felt a little relieved. Being able to use this kind of thing as a “price”, no matter how you think about it, this little guy named Xiu Xiu is also supporting the world to become better and better, not like the taboo objects that become more powerful the more chaotic the world is.
Xiu Xiu: [The master used to have a lot of world power, and Xiu Xiu also has a lot! 】
【But I don’t know what happened. The master lost his memory and his power became so weak that even the evil gods in the small world can hurt you... Xiu Xiu has used up all the world power in his body in order to find the master... Xiu Xiu doesn’t know what to do... Wuwuwu】
【But fortunately, the Lord God has found the master, we will be fine! As long as the Lord God recovers his memory!! 】
What Xiu Xiu said was too messy and complicated, and it was exactly the same tone that those forbidden objects used when they deceived people.
However, considering that Xiu Xiu had saved him before and showed obvious hostility towards the evil god, Si Qi thought that these creatures born under the influence of gods might all speak in such strange ways, so he didn't pay much attention to it. He extracted useful information from the messy words and said to Xiu Xiu: [How much world power do I have?]
He has been working hard to save the world for more than ten years, so he must have some anyway.
Xiu Xiu said ashamedly: [Only 7%... There was a lot originally, but most of it was absorbed by Xiu Xiu... I'm sorry, master...]
[It doesn't matter] If Xiu Xiu didn't tell him, Si Qi wouldn't be able to use even 1% of it, let alone 7%, not to mention that Xiu Xiu woke up after absorbing it and told him so many things, and saved his life, so Si Qi certainly wouldn't mind.
Who knew that these three short words would somehow touch the tears of this little crybaby, and Xiu Xiu burst into tears: [Master, Master used to be so good to Xiu Xiu! Never blame Xiu Xiu for being useless, wuwuwuwuwuwuwu...]
Si Qi: [...]
After Xiu Xiu finished crying, she rubbed her head into Si Qi's palm and wiped her tears with Si Qi's palm. Si Qi continued: [What can I do with the rest of my world power?]
Xiu Xiu thought about it, tried to contact the system store that is common to fast travellers, but found that it could not be opened at all. He scratched his head, reached out and took out the leaf of the World Tree that he had used as a small quilt, and said to Si Qi: [Master, try to open this]
[Open?]
This is just a small leaf, how can he open it? Should he tear it into pieces?
Subconsciously, he felt that this was confusing, but when his attention was really focused on the leaf, Si Qi felt that his "eyes" suddenly became clear, and a "display center" used to display countless items appeared in front of him.
Empty, huge, and orderly.
Many "goods" that Si Qi could not understand at all, but the subtle differences between different items could be clearly distinguished by just looking at the appearance, appeared in front of Si Qi.
This style of clearly organizing all the things is very much in line with Si Qi's preferences. He thought that if he were to organize these things, he would probably arrange them in the same way.
Some things look particularly exquisite, and some things, such as stones and old yellowed paper, are placed together with those things that look very valuable. What's going on?
Then Si Qi saw a strange thing that looked like a human figure, made entirely of metal, and was almost as big as the tallest building in the country. The surrounding area was messy as if it had been robbed, which was particularly eye-catching.
He raised this question, and Xiu Xiu said awkwardly: [This was done by Xiu Xiu…]
At that time, Si Qi was injured outside, and Xiu Xiu was afraid that Si Qi would die. Suddenly, she remembered that she could find the mecha to help Si Qi fight, and in a hurry, she didn't pay much attention.
Si Qi didn't say anything, and looked at the shelf with exquisite glass bottles filled with various liquids. There, too, it was twisted and distorted like a whirlwind.
Xiu Xiu was even more embarrassed: [Xiu Xiu lost part of his memory, and he recalls things very slowly. He doesn’t know which potion is the healing potion…] So he searched for a long time before he found the one for healing.
Si Qi: [The healing potion? The one you used on me when I was unconscious?]
[Yes] Xiu Xiu nodded, and pointed his limp paws at the light yellow glass bottle: [These are all]
Then he looked at the other colored liquids and fell into memories: [What are these pink and light blue things…]
He held his head in thought, but he couldn’t remember.
Si Qi: [Can I use these things?]
Xiu Xiu quickly said: [Yes, yes, of course! These are all the master’s property! 】
【Some things the master has exchanged with the world power before, and can be taken out at any time. Some things are not available yet, such as the snack shelf over there, pudding and so on. If you want to use them, you have to pay a sum of world power. Hey, the master obviously likes to eat pudding the most】
Si Qi looked at the ocean of snacks piled up in the corner like a mountain, with a strong presence, and was a little speechless.
He said: [I don’t like to eat pudding]
He would not use such precious world power to exchange for these snacks.
Xiu Xiu: [???]
Xiu Xiu said stupidly: [But the master obviously likes to eat pudding the most, Xiu Xiu can’t remember it wrong...]
After that, he also released the video records of the previous worlds, Si Qi happily enjoying the pudding, and the empty pudding boxes were placed all over the floor at his feet.
Si Qi: […………]
This guy has forgotten everything else, why does he remember this thing so clearly!!!
Xiu Xiu: Hehe, Xiu Xiu will not forget anything related to the master!
Considering that the previous treatment potion is better than the seal in Igor's hand, and it doesn't even require a huge price, Si Qi weighed the pros and cons again and again, and took out several potions of different colors, ready to take them out for his men to study carefully, maybe they can be mass-produced outside.
Nowadays, technology is so advanced that even epoch-making inventions such as trains and telegraphs have appeared, and the effects are comparable to some magical taboos. Maybe these things can be made?
Even if they can't be made, it's good to test the specific effects.
Chu Feng, Igor and Si Qi were walking and discussing something. Si Qi suddenly took out a few bottles of liquid in glass from his "pocket" and handed them to Igor, which stunned the two of them.
Si Qi: "Take it to the Academy of Sciences for testing to see what the specific effects are."
Igor subconsciously took the bottles of medicine and nodded seriously. Chu Feng looked at the small pocket that obviously couldn't store so many things, and his expression was puzzled: "You put a new sealed object?"
Chu Feng knew all the sealed objects in the legion, and there was definitely no such sealed object in it. Where did Si Qi get this sealed object? Si
Qi: "...Hmm."
If Xiu Xiu can be considered a sealed object, then it is.
Chu Feng's tone was somewhat unhappy: "You said you would take a good rest and not go on dangerous missions."
Although it was clearly a rebellious remark, Si Qi heard a feeling of a husband being disciplined by his wife and not being able to smoke because of poor health. He said uncomfortably: "I know my limits."
Igor laughed at the side. He had known Si Qi for many years, but it was the first time he saw the commander of the army so embarrassed. It was funny to watch.
Si Qi rubbed his nose and had nothing to say. He could only lower his head and let Chu Feng talk.
Chu Feng was actually right. After the big battle a few days ago, Si Qi obviously felt that his emotions were becoming more and more difficult to control. The number of hallucinations and auditory hallucinations increased at least several times. Out of prudence, he reduced the number of seals on his body from more than 20 to 13, and his fighting power was no longer comparable to that of his heyday.
However, instead of feeling uneasy, he felt more relieved than before - because Chu Feng's strength had long surpassed his original strength, and was even several times stronger than he was at that time.
With Chu Feng stationed in the temple, the temple would definitely become safer than before.
Si Qi worked in the legion for a morning, and Igor and Chu Feng tactfully suggested that he could go home and rest.
Si Qi knew that this was the thoughtfulness of the two people, and he also knew that after he arranged the affairs of the legion, the only thing he was worried about was his family. In the last moments, spending more time with his parents and brother might make his mental state more stable.
After all, just looking at the documents about taboos and reading the descriptions that seem like mental pollution is also a tiring thing.
After Si Qi returned home, his parents were holding a charity dinner at home to collect donations to help those unfortunate families whose wives and children were separated due to various natural disasters some time ago.
Because of Si Qi's sickly personality, the stand-in always appeared in the middle and late stages of the dinner, or simply did not appear. At this time, Si Qi came back and did not need to replace the stand-in. He could just put on a dress and go directly.
Just as he was about to go out after getting dressed, his stand-in came over and handed two items that looked exactly the same to Si Qi: "This is something your mother gave to you specially, saying that it can protect your health."
Si Qi could tell at a glance that one of them was a forbidden item, and said helplessly: "What effect does it have this time?"
"It can make your complexion look better... I tested it, and it does work, but it will also make the disease more difficult to cure. It is very useful to use it against the enemy with specific props." The stand-in said softly: "Ma'am doesn't know this, they care about you very much."
Due to the efforts of the Knights Templar, forbidden items are rarely seen in circulation in the country. To get this kind of thing, the Marquis and his wife must have put in a lot of effort.
Because the temple does such a good job of not letting ordinary people know about the existence of "the other world", people often only hear that there are some very magical items in the world, but they don't know that these items come from evil gods and always require a huge price.
"I know," Si Qi's eyes showed a touch of tenderness, and he smiled slightly, and said slowly: "They are the best parents in the world."
He put on the replica made by the substitute, and put the taboo in the drawer of the room. When he is free later, he will take it to the underground shelter to seal it - as long as it doesn't cause illness and trigger the rules of the taboo, it is often harmless.
Si Qi ordered: "Have you caught the person who sold this thing?"
The substitute bowed and replied: "He has been caught."
Si Qi nodded, got up and went out. Seeing that he was about to leave like this,
the stand-in carefully reminded him: "Aren't you going to put on some makeup? When the Marquise handed the things to me just now, she saw that my complexion had improved and she seemed to be in a particularly good mood." Si Qi shook his head: "No need, we have to let them be prepared in advance - let them think that they have bought fakes again this time."
Be prepared...
Realizing what Si Qi was talking about, the stand-in's smile froze, and after a moment a trace of sadness emerged in his eyes. He said: "The old man and his wife really love you, you..."
Taking a deep breath, the stand-in carefully put forward his suggestion: "In fact, you can let someone play the role of the young master for the rest of their lives to make them happy... I, I can't bear to see them sad."
Si Qi looked at the stand-in carefully and said to him: "Do you still remember what you really look like?"
The stand-in lowered his head and said nothing.
Si Qi reached out and lifted his face. Looking at the face that had long lost its edges and facial features and was almost as smooth as dough, he said to him, "I still remember, Ander, you once had a very beautiful face."
"I did it voluntarily, sir..."
Si Qi: "This is not a reason, Ander. If you continue like this, you will completely lose your facial features and you won't even be able to eat or breathe. I have made you pay such a high price, and it is enough. I can't let others become like you."
"I think they would be willing..."
Si Qi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then do you think my parents would be willing to be deceived all their lives? Especially at the cost of their 'sons' not being able to show their true faces all their lives. How guilty would they be if they knew the truth?"
Ander suddenly stopped talking.
Si Qi's voice slowed down: "Don't give them hope, understand?"
Ander nodded and said obediently: "I'm sorry, sir, I will pay attention."
Watching Si Qi leave the bedroom, the door was closed by Si Qi, and Ander stood in the warmly decorated room, secretly raised his hand to wipe the corner of his eyes.
After Si Qi went downstairs, he attracted a lot of attention.
This was mainly because as soon as he appeared, the eyes of the Marquis and his young and promising brother all turned to him. The actions of the three main characters at the banquet attracted the attention of the guests, and many people unconsciously shifted the topic from the natural disaster that made people panic some time ago to him. This
group of people did not dare to talk loudly, and whispered to each other in a low voice. They thought they were whispering quietly, but the content was transmitted to Si Qi's ears without exception, regardless of his body and five senses. All of them were very good.
"The Marquise just said that her son's complexion has improved significantly and he will soon recover, but I think he is no different from before, and he has even become paler..."
"Ah, it's pitiful that he was born in such a wealthy family but doesn't even have a healthy body."
"What's pitiful? It's pitiful for people like us who were born in debt-ridden families and were asked by our parents to restore the family's glory. Look at the gems on the young master's belt, they are enough for my family's annual expenses."
"Hush, keep your voice down."
"I'm just talking. If possible, I would rather switch with this young master. Even if I can only live for a dozen years, I will have no worries about food and clothing. I am not like me, who has lived such a hard life."
"Look at the expression on the Marchioness's face. I think she's about to cry. That smile is so forced."
"At least she has an outstanding eldest son."
"Oh, he is indeed a very good gentleman. It is said that this time when disasters broke out in various parts of the country, this congressman solved many problems with great efficiency and was praised by His Majesty the King. The news is full of reports about this gentleman."
"Hey, do you know what those natural disasters are all about?"
When the topic was brought up, the ladies subconsciously lowered their voices again, their eyes filled with fear and yearning for the mysterious power: "One of my good sisters is near the site where the natural disaster broke out. She said she saw with her own eyes that a man in a black coat and a silver mask appeared and used mysterious power to resist the disaster. This is the legendary..."
Another lady continued: "The Knights Templar?"
"Yes, the Knights Templar. I only vaguely heard about it before, but I didn't expect it to really exist."
A group of people's faces flashed with expectation and yearning: "Listen to these pleasant syllables, they are our heroes, who stepped forward in times of crisis, saved countless lives, and stopped the disaster from happening."
"I heard that if the Knights hadn't killed the source of the disaster in time, perhaps the natural disaster would not have been stopped until now."
"How many people died in just two days around the world? It's really terrible."
"It is said that the leader of the Knights personally killed the demon that caused the disaster."
"
