Clement arrived at the main house of the Melorn family.
The magnificent mansion seemed no different from a few years ago, but Clement noticed the hastily painted new paint on the doorposts, the uneven grass in the flower garden, and the house. Everything revealed a sense of hastily tidying up after a turmoil.
Clement thought of the ornament that had drifted to Denning City, and was not surprised by what he saw.
He had not come back willingly, and was too lazy to care about these things.
When he entered the room, a servant had already prepared water for him and prepared clothes for him to change. He refused the servant's service and went into the bathroom by himself.
He did not bring much with him, except for the ring and the communicator.
The communicator was full of his friends in Denning City, but when he decided to go with the priest, he had already turned it off, fearing that he would be weak for a moment and drag them into this quagmire.
He knew that he should destroy it completely, but he couldn't bear to do it again and again.
Clement had never had a few happy days in his life. The time he spent in Denning City was the happiest and happiest time of his first 20 years.
He thought that if he didn't want the property of the Melorn family and the so-called noble status, he could completely get rid of the darkness he had once experienced.
He had friends and a lover, and would live an ordinary but happy life.
But when the priest appeared, he heard the sound of his inner dream collapsing.
"Sir, have you started cleaning?" The servant's voice came from outside the door, interrupting Clement's thoughts.
He tightened his hand holding the communicator abruptly, and then loosened it in vain, revealing a self-deprecating smile: In such a place where he is monitored all the time, he is still fantasizing about his previous happy life. Accept reality, Clement. After
he took a shower and changed his clothes, the people arranged by the priest had already arrived and took him to the tower.
Clement followed him into the tower silently and obediently.
The tower has a total of 19 floors, but the entrance and exit are on the top floor.
From the 19th floor to the 15th floor, it is a place for banquets and meetings, and all nobles can enter and exit freely. From
the 14th floor to the 7th floor, it is the location of the research institute.
From the 7th floor down, it is the core of the temple, and the lower you go, the more noble it is.
The place where blood concentration is tested is in the research institute.
Clement followed the man and took a small aircraft to land on the top floor, and then took the elevator down to the 12th floor.
The control of the research institute is very strict. Each floor has a special access control. Even researchers cannot go to other floors to mess around. As for outsiders like Clement, they need a special handwritten letter issued by the priest and must be led by a special person to enter.
Clement followed them into the testing room.
There was a huge machine in the testing room. After the researcher operated it, a human-shaped groove slowly emerged from the machine. He said to Clement, "Take off your clothes and lie down."
Clement clenched his fingers, but still took off his clothes bit by bit. The expressions of the two people opposite him did not change at all, as if they were already used to such scenes.
Clement lay in the human-shaped groove. The material of the groove was very soft and soon completely fit his body shape. Then, he slowly entered the machine.
Clement's eyes gradually darkened.
He heard the faint sound of the machine, and then something brushed past his body, making him feel numb and itchy, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, but this discomfort was not entirely physiological.
It was the pain of his dignity as a human being being broken.
The test did not last long, and the machine spit him out again.
He squinted his eyes, adjusted to the light, and then climbed up and put on his clothes.
When he walked out of the testing room, the researcher handed him the test results: "31%, Mr. Meloen, congratulations on passing. You can use this test report to thaw the Meloen family's inheritance and handle the transfer."
Clement raised his lips reluctantly: "I know, thank you."
The man who led him in before took him out again, and after completing all the formalities, he sent him back to the Meloen main house.
At this time, the servants had prepared a meal for him.
The table was full of meals, and all the ingredients were the most top-grade and precious, with good color, fragrance and taste, which was impossible to eat anywhere else.
There was a faint floral scent floating in the air, which was the precious flowers that were directly transported by air today.
There was also a small band next to him, playing melodious music for him.
This is the daily life of the nobles in Central City. If you are willing to indulge in such a life, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.
Clement tried to comfort himself, but to no avail. He looked at the table full of delicacies, but he had no appetite at all, and just felt tired.
He waved his hand and asked the servants to leave.
The servants left sensibly, but before leaving, a servant said: "Master, there will be a banquet on the 16th floor of the God Tower tonight. The invitation has been placed in your study. The priest said that you must attend."
Clement froze for a long time before saying: "I know."
After the servants and the band left, the huge restaurant suddenly became very quiet.
In this dead silence, Clement suddenly missed Denning City, missed the days of eating and playing with the members of the guard team, missed Alicia, missed Gu Xingmian...
At this time, Alicia was talking to Gu Xingmian.
Gu Xingmian had been calling Clement's communicator, but it still showed that the call could not be connected. However, Alicia found some clues in Clement's residence.
That was a code word that only they knew. Translated, it means that he is safe and asked them not to look for him.
Alicia was sure that it was written by Clement, so he was not taken away by the card maker family.
But even so, Gu Xingmian's heart could not be put down.
What happened to Clement that he could not even say goodbye properly and could only tell them in such a cryptic code.
Anyway, it was impossible to be as safe as he said in the code.
At this time, Gu Xingmian could not help but think of his family.
Could it be related to this?
While he was thinking, a message came from the First Military Region, confirming that Clement followed a priest on a flying vehicle, and the direction should be the Central City.
Temple?
Gu Xingmian was even more confused, how could it be related to the temple again.
Just when he was puzzled, someone knocked on the door, and when he opened it, he found that it was Dai Baiyu.
"Coach Dai!" Gu Xingmian looked at him in surprise, "Are you here to see Xiao Qiong? He just went out for something. How about I help you make a call..."
Dai Baiyu interrupted him, "No, I'm here to see you."
Gu Xingmian was stunned, "Looking for me?"
Dai Baiyu nodded, his expression tense, even the scar on his cheek was pulled more fiercely, "Can you help me heal my God Card?" Gu Xingmian was startled. The news that he could heal the God Card was jointly blocked by Gwen, Qin Ke and Baker who were present at the time, but Dai Baiyu, as their team leader, was in the team at the time. He
