Chapter 54 The Dark Sentinel's Target
The sound of leather shoes tapping on the ground stopped.
Qiao Xiu: "Major General Lu, think about it, why are the secret sentinels suddenly so active, even coming to the Imperial Capital?"
Lu Junliang followed up on his words, "You mean... the Dark Sentinel is about to awaken? Could the Dark Sentinel be from Kyoto?"
Qiao Xiu made his words a little clearer: "We can't rule out this possibility. Be more careful recently."
Lu Junliang suddenly said seriously: "You too."
Qiao Xiu hung up the phone.
What should he do if the secret sentry's target is Qiao Ye?
Before he knew it, he had returned to Qiao Ye's nutrition cabin.
Qiao Xiu touched his sister's hair as she lay in the nutrient solution. He had a feeling. It would be best if Qiao Ye's mental strength were never tested.
…
The next morning, Lu Chi opened the door and came out of the room.
His union fever finally passed.
As usual, he quietly stood guard at the door of Qiao Ye's room.
Inside the room, Qiao Ye woke up. She came out of the nutrient solution and Qiao Xiu handed her a towel.
"Brother Qiao."
Qiao Xiu smiled and said, "How's your recovery going?"
"Very good. Thanks for your help, Brother Qiao."
Qiao Ye went to the bathroom and changed his clothes.
Qiao Xiu smiled and said, "Since you often come to the Qiao family, this room is reserved for you. Please get familiar with the door first."
Qiao Ye was his sister, his biological sister. It was only natural that she should have her own room at home.
A well-prepared room.
"Leave it for me?" Qiao Ye looked around the room in surprise. The room was decorated in a neutral style, with only a few cute cartoon graphics. It was suitable for both men and women.
It fits her aesthetic quite well.
Qiao Xiu smiled and said, "Well, from now on, just treat this place as your home."
Qiao Ye looked at Qiao Xiu and finally smiled: "Big brother is so good to me, I almost treat you as my own big brother."
In her previous life, she had no relatives and no ties.
In this life, she and Qiao Xiu gradually established a brother-sister bond.
She trusted him and placed her billions of star coins with Qiao Xiu.
And Qiao Xiu truly treated her as one of his own.
This feeling is really not bad.
Qiao Xiu smiled and said, "I can be your elder brother. Ye Qiao, come and sit down."
This room is also a suite, very large. The bedroom is connected to the bathroom, and on the other side is a study. The layout is a bit similar to Lu Chi's room.
Qiao Xiu and Qiao Ye arrived at the study. Qiao Ye looked at Qiao Xiu sideways. She felt that Qiao Xiu was in deep thought and seemed to have a lot to say.
"Ye Qiao..." Qiao Xiu pondered for a moment before suddenly speaking slowly, "You should know that in most cases, it's the sentinels who mark the guides. But did you know there's a type of guide where the guide can actually mark the sentinels?"
Qiao Ye was startled, then became interested. "What kind of guide can mark a sentinel?"
Qiao Xiu: "A 4S-level dark guide, possessing guiding abilities beyond the StarCraft's comprehension, and the ability to mark sentinels. But there's a flaw."
Qiao Ye asked again: "What are the shortcomings?"
Qiao Xiu said, "It is said that if a Sentinel marked by a Dark Guide suffers a severe injury or is on the verge of death, the Dark Guide will feel the same."
Qiao Ye was stunned.
They share the same feelings for each other's life and death. This must be because they love each other very much, so they would mark him.
Qiao Xiu smiled and said, "There are some books in this room that are not available outside. You can stay and read them. I'll get you some breakfast."
After Qiao Xiu left the room, Qiao Ye stood up and walked across the bookshelf.
Her bookshelves are filled with books, many of which are out-of-print treasures.
She walked very slowly, so slowly that she established a connection with this room that she didn't even understand. At this moment, Qiao Ye couldn't help but think, if only the Qiao family was really her home.
Qiao Xiu is a very good elder brother, and Marshal Qiao is also very respectable.
Coming back to his senses, Qiao Ye pulled himself out of his fantasy.
Oh my god, she actually had such a daydream. She actually imagined that the most powerful family in the galaxy was her home!
Qiao Xiu saw Lu Chi standing guard by the door.
Lu Chi looked at Qiao Xiu and said, "I'm over the fever, so it's okay for me to stay here."
Qiao Xiu left without looking around.
Qiao Ye was reading a book on the shelf about dark sentinels and dark guides. The contents of these books were all unique and could not be found on the optical computer.
Lu Chi walked in. He looked Qiao Ye up and down, making sure she was okay. He asked her in a low voice, "Qiao Qiao, how do you feel now?"
Qiao Ye turned around and said, "I'm fine. Why are you standing there like an idiot? Come and sit down."
Lu Chi sat next to her and moved a little closer.
Qiao Xiu brought in three breakfasts and closed the door. He looked at Lu Chi, who was sitting very close to Qiao Ye, with cold eyes.
Lu Chi didn't even move, just stared at him face to face.
Qiao Xiu's brows twitched twice.
This bastard from the Lu family! He'll have to give him a good beating sooner or later!
Qiao Xiu slammed the three breakfasts onto the coffee table in front of the sofa. Qiao Ye, who didn't notice anything unusual, picked up one of them and started eating it naturally.
Qiao Xiu said to Qiao Ye, "Last time when we sorted out General Li's spiritual power, General Li gave us 100 million."
Qiao Ye almost spit out the milk he had just drunk. "Wasn't it 10 million? Why did it suddenly increase?"
Qiao Xiu handed her a piece of paper and said, "To the Li family, General Li's life is worth far more than 100 million. Don't overthink it, he gave more voluntarily."
Qiao Ye admitted it. "What a kind man! Thank him for me..."
Qiao Xiu couldn't help but laugh and said, "We've saved enough money to buy you an excellent nine-star mecha, but I think I should keep saving and buy you a ten-star mecha."
Qiao Ye nodded, his eyes shining. "Yes, I want ten stars. I still have a little money. The money I earned from playing the video of 'Eight Section Brocade' is tens of millions."
"That's good. We're one step closer to a ten-star mecha."
Lu Chi was stunned. He didn't even have a mecha, and Qiao Qiao was going to get a ten-star mecha?
Qiao Xiu noticed that Lu Chi's expression was amiss. He didn't mind making him even more upset, so he continued to rub salt into Lu Chi's mouth: "Then let's continue working and making money. We'll try to buy a ten-star mecha as soon as possible!"
Qiao Ye nodded repeatedly: "Yeah!"
Qiao Xiu took out his light computer, turned it on, and placed several tasks in front of Qiao Ye.
"There are three tasks with relatively high returns now. Take a look first."
Lu Chi was not willing to be outdone, so he came over and looked at the task with Qiao Ye.
Mission 1: The empire's eldest prince Quan Tianhua, SSS level mental power, 27 years old, mental power frenzy value 89%, is willing to pay 100 million to sort out his mental power.
Mission 2: The little prince of the empire, Quan Tianlong, SS-level mental power, 16 years old, mental power frenzy value 74%, is willing to pay 50 million to sort out his mental power.
Mission Three: General Yin Gang of the Eighth Army, whose mental power is SSS level and whose mental power frenzy value is 87%, is willing to pay 20 million to sort out his mental power.
Qiao Xiu asked, "Their requirement is to reduce mental strength by 10%. Ye Qiao, which one do you want to do?"
