Chapter 488 Lanqi's Journey Home
Northern Continent, early May.
At noon on Sunday, in the heart of the city of Helrom, there stood a building. Its smooth glass surface reflected the light from the sky, like a giant tower reaching to the sky.
This building not only surpasses the surrounding buildings in height, but also becomes the most eye-catching part of the city skyline with its luxury and unique design.
At this moment, Lanqi has reached the top floor of the building.
He stood in front of the only door on this level.
The mood seems a little subtle.
It was not until a while later that he put the cat boss in his arms on the crook of his left arm, freed his right hand and rang the doorbell.
"Come in."
Sigrid's soft voice came from inside the door.
It wasn't because her voice was small, but because she was obviously far away from the door.
Although cold and distant, it is still so familiar.
"Is Sigrid angry, meow?"
The cat boss raised his paw and scratched Lanqi, asking in a low voice.
"Who knows?"
Lanqi took the key chain from his pocket and found one of the keys that had never been used. This was the spare key that Sigrid had given him a long time ago.
The key was inserted into the lock, and the slight clicking sound when it turned was particularly clear in the silent corridor.
"Meow."
Boss Cat doesn't know how their date went yesterday.
But judging from Sigrid's attitude, it guessed that the two of them would most likely part ways unhappily.
When the three of them were in the snowfield at the beginning, they heard Sid say that he would not let Lanqi go, and he thought that Lanqi would definitely fake his death and escape.
I didn't expect that Lanqi was so honest. He never lied to Sid from the beginning to the end. Even when Sid gave him a week to run away, he refused.
The door slowly opened, and what came into view was a spacious and bright entrance.
The furnishings here are exquisite and luxurious, from carefully selected artworks to custom-made furniture, each one is one-of-a-kind.
The walls are hung with carefully selected paintings, which are not only a reflection of craftsmanship, but also a symbol of Sigrid's taste.
Lanqi walked into the living room, his footsteps almost silent on the soft carpet.
The lighting in the room was warm and soft, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance, which was Sigrid's favorite incense.
Although I have not been here many times, it was not until I got to know Sigrid that I found that everything here seemed very familiar.
After walking for a long time, Lanqi finally arrived at the collection house where Sigrid was.
This is where the two of them first met.
Of course, that time he was forcibly brought here by Sigrid.
In the distance, Sigrid stood quietly in front of the French window, overlooking the scenery of Helrom.
Now she finally got her wish and became the rightful overlord of the Protoss Empire.
But recently, the reason for my happiness seems to be both related and unrelated to this incident.
She turned around, and her eyes, as clear and deep as ever, hid countless memories and emotions.
There is no need for too many words between Lanqi and me; eye contact is enough to convey each other's thoughts.
"I'm here to fulfill my promise."
Lanqi began to speak.
After finishing this painting for Sigrid today, he will return to the southern continent for a while.
Sigrid did not respond.
He just walked slowly to the main seat of the Tibetan hall.
She sat down by herself and glanced at Lanqi.
"Lancy Wilford, is that your real name?"
Sigrid asked.
She had actually guessed long ago that Rocky McCarthy was not his real name.
She could have asked him for his real name early on, and she was sure he would tell the truth.
But she had been waiting for him to confess.
"Yes, the leader of Nanwantina in the Kingdom of Hutton, now living in the capital of Ikerite."
Lanqi hugged the little black cat and nodded in acknowledgement.
"Aren't you afraid that I will go to the southern continent to find the Hutton Kingdom and then find you?"
Sigrid asked, observing him and the black kitten with interest.
She remembered that when she first brought Lanqi here to see him, Lanqi looked calm, but his shadow had begun to waver. Then the little black cat with its fur standing on end jumped out and curled up in Lanqi's hand, always afraid that she would find out Lanqi's information.
Now that Lanqi’s past in the southern continent has been exposed, the little black cat still seems indifferent.
"I'll be welcome anytime."
Lanqi smiled frankly.
"The capital city of Ikerit is a very nice city, perfect for a date."
He added.
"What do you want to express?"
Sigrid was stunned for half a second, then narrowed her eyes and stared at Lanqi.
She didn't expect Lanqi to say this so suddenly.
"I just want to introduce you to Ikerite."
Lanqi looked at Sigrid with a natural expression.
"I think you just want to hold my hand for a date again. You could have said it more bluntly."
Sigrid folded her arms and sneered.
She looked like she was joking, but also like she was half serious.
"Meow? Meow, meow, meow!"
Boss Cat raised his head and looked back and forth at Lanqi and Sigrid.
This stubborn guy actually held hands with Xi De yesterday?
And Tata is still eating!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"In Ikerita, we can all use our original appearance without having to worry about being surrounded by reporters and people when we walk on the street."
Lanqi thought about it and replied.
The corners of Sigrid's mouth curled up slightly, but she quickly suppressed it and returned to her cold expression.
He still didn't deny the date.
"Now it's just the two of us and the little black cat. Show me your true face, otherwise it's not fair."
Sigrid leaned back in her seat and looked at Lanci.
Lanqi just looked at her and smiled, then turned around to let her see his whole body with black hair and green eyes clearly.
“…”
Sigrid kept her eyes open and remained silent for a long time, unable to say anything.
She immediately understood what the Son of God meant.
"Okay, that's satisfactory."
She commented.
"I was quite satisfied with yesterday's date. This is for you."
As Sigrid spoke, she took out a thin and small stone floating board from her pocket, and its special brilliance instantly illuminated the entire museum.
The stone was then thrown to Lanqi.
Lanqi caught it steadily and stared at the sacred object in his hand.
Before, when they were in the outside world, Sigrid was not convenient to take out the stone slab and give it to him. Now that they were alone, and with Sigrid's family's magic detection isolation shielding barrier, she could finally give him this trophy.
[Original Slate-Seal]
[Category: Equipment Card]
[Grade: Orange Epic]
[Attribute: Seal]
[Level: 5]
[Passive effect: The original slate cannot be destroyed. Only living beings in this world can be soul-bound. A maximum of one can be bound. All sealed magic, martial arts, equipment, and summons are fully enhanced. The slate will be unbound when the soul-bound person dies.]
[Note: Fate is tightly bound, but the soul can save everything. ]
On the intricate ancient spells on the stone slabs, the luster of the Age of Gods was brilliant and hidden, striking directly into the soul and constantly resonating with the magic power in Ranchi.
At this moment, he is not yet at the fifth level and cannot bind to this stone slab.
However, he is not far from the fifth level, and he will probably become the new user of [Original Slate-Seal] soon.
"I can go back and report now."
Lanci exclaimed.
When the time comes, just write a report and submit the relevant information about the [Fake Stone Slab-Seal].
"I have a five o'clock ticket. I will take Antanas and the others back to Lilom City, the southernmost city in the empire, and then take a ship back to the southern continent."
He put the slate away and looked at Sigrid and said.
"Don't get me wrong. I never agreed to let you go."
Sigrid did not change her cold attitude today, but she changed her tone again, "But I haven't slept much these past few days, and I'm very tired today. If you insist on running, I might not be able to find you."
Sigrid's purple eyes gradually became hazy, and her words became slower and softer.
It seemed that if she hadn't been waiting for Lanqi, she would have fallen asleep long ago.
Of course, she got even sleepier because Lanky was there.
Once I finish explaining things and relax, the tiredness in my brain comes like a tide.
"Good afternoon, Sigrid."
Lanqi understood and whispered, which was also a farewell.
From their previous interactions, Sigrid had already formed a conditioned reflex, and whenever she was with Lanqi she wanted to take a nap.
The Catholic Church wants to save face and will not change what it has said.
It's just that there is a slight possibility of giving some leniency to the Son of Tyrant.
"By the way, there is an interview program on the Helrom Broadcasting Company today. They are scheduled to visit my collection in the afternoon, so don't try to be perfunctory, otherwise you will definitely make Principal Rocky McCarthy laugh. Haha..."
As she spoke, Sigrid closed her heavy eyelids. The high-back chair provided her with enough support that she began to relax her body unconsciously, until finally only the sound of slight breathing remained.
