"You're pretty energetic, aren't you?"
Lucadi and Wang Xuefeng walked out of the committee building side by side, under a sky full of stars.
As a "victim," and with the group leader Lucadi present, Wang Xuefeng was naturally not subjected to any difficulties.
After a brief record was made, he was released.
"Not bad." Wang Xuefeng scratched his head, a slight smile on his face.
“But I’m curious, why does Wan Anna keep calling out Xiao He’s name?” Lucadi asked when they were alone.
“Who knows?” Wang Xuefeng paused. “Maybe it’s because Xiao He is a level 99 priest.”
"Level 99?!" Lucadi exclaimed in surprise. "She's that high a level?!"
Since Xiao He was not a formal student, she filled out all her personal information herself, and no one gave her a special test.
Lucadi thought her "forbidden spell level" meant something similar to Wang Xuefeng's, but she never expected it to be the "peak of demigod" at the end of the forbidden spell stage.
A priest who's practically on the verge of godhood? That's incredibly understated for a club like Nokin...
"You're something else, kid! Your wife is that amazing?!"
His eyes shone brightly, and his gaze towards Wang Xuefeng shifted from admiration to deep envy: "I was just saying that! You recovered so quickly! Turns out you have a get-out-of-jail-free card!"
"Uh..." Wang Xuefeng smiled sheepishly, "Luck, luck."
Lucadi gave a sullen look: "Alright, take a day off tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow you two will come with me on the expedition."
"An expedition? A major mission?" Wang Xuefeng asked.
"Um."
How far is it?
"Yanluo Military City".
"What? The Yanluo Huo family army?" Wang Xuefeng was somewhat surprised.
“Yes.” Lucadi nodded. “Yanluo Military City requests reinforcements.”
"Isn't the Huo family army the head of the six great knight families? Even if they were to be revived after a thousand years, they shouldn't be able to collapse in the city, right?" Wang Xuefeng asked, puzzled.
“You’re right, I don’t know why either.” Lucadi spread his hands: “It’s a confidential request for assistance, even I can’t know about it, someone will only tell me when we get there.”
What team configuration is required?
"A group of 100 people needs at least 20 forbidden spell priests."
"20 pastors?" Wang Xuefeng was even more bewildered.
Putting aside other orthodox priests, even if Lucadi recruited a hundred-man squad without priests, Xiao He could easily fight and heal at the same time.
The need for twenty men was clearly not for Lucadi's team, but rather for Yanluo's army to be temporarily equipped.
The remaining eighty people were more like guards for the twenty priests...
What puzzled Wang Xuefeng even more was that Huo Lei, who was in Yanluo, did not mention this matter to him, which proved that even the Huo family army themselves did not know about it.
It seems that keeping an eye on both the people in the capital and those within the Huo family is no easy task.
"Don't worry, I'll put your wife on the same team as you," Lucadi reassured her.
"Thank you, Commander." Wang Xuefeng nodded in response as usual.
"Okay, I'll remember that. We'll rest tomorrow, and meet at the port at noon the day after tomorrow."
"OK!"
The two said a brief goodbye at the crossroads.
-
Upon hearing that Wang Xuefeng had returned, Valerie voluntarily moved out of her seat and returned to the next room.
Because Lucadi had mentioned the expedition to the Central Plains the day after tomorrow to her, she did not return to the academy and planned to stay with Xiao He.
It prevents people from getting lost and also makes it easier to hitch a ride.
Xiao He had already fully recovered and was leisurely sitting by the window reading the latest newspaper.
Wang Xuefeng took a quick shower and then sat down next to her, telling her about what happened after Wan Anna was arrested.
Li Xiaozhi's body was returned to his family, but unless Sangmaikui personally came, or Xiao He evolved to the next stage, no one could resurrect him.
Wananna, on the other hand, had her elemental cyclone abolished, was put under a sleeping spell due to her mental instability, and was eventually locked in a solitary confinement prison to await a second trial.
"Bluebird, that name sounds familiar." Xiao He thought hard.
She remembered the old dean's notebook, which was still in Yang Xing's possession. Two years had passed, and she wondered how many clues he had uncovered.
The name "Bluebird" was mentioned many times in that notebook.
However, this name has a very high rate of being the same as other people's names, so it's hard to tell if it's the same person.
"Xiao Xing's email attachment hasn't arrived yet. It looks like we'll have to wait until we get back from this expedition before we can even think about accessing the committee's database," Wang Xuefeng said, then sighed helplessly.
"It's alright. No one knows my identity right now, and I shouldn't be exposed anytime soon." Xiao He closed the newspaper and tossed it aside.
Since the current Xiao He and "Xiao He" are not the same person, searching for Xiao He's information in the committee's database can only find her current identity.
Unless there are old acquaintances in the capital who deliberately search the files of "Flying Dragon City - Xiao He" and compare the two, Xiao He's secret will not be exposed.
"If we really have to count, Xiao Ai from the Temple of the God of Life in the capital might be considered a half-old acquaintance."
Xiao He rubbed his temples, hoping he wouldn't encounter the monsters from the Temple of Life so soon.
As the "authentic" version of the God of Life, I felt something was off about this massive "knock-off"...
As she was thinking, she leaned to one side and lay down in Wang Xuefeng's arms.
My gaze passed through the leaves outside the window and landed on the twinkling stars in the night sky.
The latter didn't say anything, but habitually held her in his arms to prevent her from falling when she got sleepy.
"Squeak...squeak..."
