"cough."
Alan noticed the gazes of Xiao Chen and the others, coughed dryly, and felt a little embarrassed.
"Well, it's not suitable to go out, so I didn't pick you up in person."
"Fuck, Lao Huo, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Ye looked at Alan and exclaimed in surprise.
Although Xiao Chen and Qin Jianwen didn't say anything, they looked at him with inquiring eyes.
Alan looked a little embarrassed at this moment.
There were not only bruises on his face, but also some burnt areas, and even a small piece of his hair was missing.
In addition, his arm was wrapped in gauze and there was blood on it.
When he walked, he limped and it was obvious that his leg was injured.
"Um... come in and talk."
Hearing Bai Ye's words, Alan became even more embarrassed and said.
"Let's go in and talk."
Xiao Chen spoke up, it seemed that Allen's situation was worse than they had imagined.
Since he knew Vulcan, the only time this guy was so embarrassed was when he was caught last time.
On weekdays, although he is not young anymore, his temperament is there, just like a gentleman.
At this moment, he no longer looks like a gentleman.
When they got inside, Alan asked Luke to make tea and took out a cigar and placed it on the table.
"Let me tell you first."
Xiao Chen didn't drink tea or smoke a cigar, and spoke slowly.
He had noticed the wounds on Alan's face just now. It should have been caused by a beating. The charred area was either caused by lightning or burns from fire.
If it was lightning, it would be fine, but if it was fire... that would be unusual.
This guy is an expert at playing with fire!
"We are all brothers, so we don't have to worry about losing face."
Alan smiled bitterly.
"I was set up and beaten. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have died."
"Who hit me?"
Xiao Chen didn't ask anything else, but asked this.
No matter what the game is, how it is played and who plays it, that is what matters most.
In his heart, he recognized Vulcan as his brother.
"Harold and the masters of Thunder God Temple."
Alan replied.
"Harold..."
Xiao Chen's eyes turned cold. It was him.
Then he glanced at Luke next to him. No wonder he was so humble when he met Kurt.
Even Allen suffered a great loss, so what could Luke do?
"The master Kurt?"
Bai Ye asked.
"Huh? How do you know Kurt?"
Alan was surprised.
"I just met him at the dock."
Xiao Chen said lightly.
"Met Kurt? Had a conflict?"
When Alan said this, he looked at Luke.
Seeing Alan coming, Luke hurriedly reported in detail what had just happened at the dock.
Bang.
Alan slapped the table with a slap on his face, showing a bit of anger.
How dare a dog of Harold be so arrogant?
"You don't have to be angry, I've already cleaned it up."
Bai Ye said to Allen.
"Um."
Alan nodded, suppressing his anger.
"Where is Feng Manlou?"
Qin Jianwen asked.
“I can’t get in touch with him.”
"He's...under house arrest."
Alan hesitated and said.
"Huh? Under house arrest? Under house arrest by whom?"
After hearing what Allen said, Xiao Chen and the other two's expressions changed slightly.
"The Wind Temple."
Alan replied.
"Wind Temple? Isn't he the Son of Wind? He is the direct disciple of the Wind God. How could he be under house arrest in the Wind Temple?"
Xiao Chen was puzzled.
"Is there any trouble in the Wind Temple? Are there any other people who rebelled against the Wind God?"
Bai Ye's mind was full of ideas and he asked.
"no."
Alan shook his head.
"Lao Feng supported me. At the beginning, the Wind Temple also supported me because of him. Later, I rejected the Wind Temple."
"Hmm? Lao Huo, are you stupid? The Wind Temple supports you, but you rejected it?"
Bai Ye was surprised.
Xiao Chen and Qin Jianwen didn't say anything, but looked at Allen, thinking there must be something else going on.
Otherwise, in such a situation, Alan would not have refused the support of the Wind Temple.
"What the Wind Temple wants is a puppet, and I can't be a puppet."
Alan looked at Bai Ye and said slowly.
"puppet?"
After hearing what Alan said, Bai Ye was stunned for a moment, then he understood.
"What about Brother Feng? He still supports you, so he is under house arrest?"
"Um."
Alan nodded.
"It was me who caused him trouble."
"We are one family, so there is no need to worry about whether we will be implicated or not."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Old Fire, tell me about the situation on your side. Wind, rain, thunder, lightning, fire, who else supports you except 'Fire'?"
"No."
Alan shook his head.
“…”
Xiao Chen and the other two were stunned. None of the remaining four forces supported him?
"Originally there was the Wind Temple, but now it's no longer useful."
Alan said helplessly.
"Besides these four major forces, how many other forces support you?"
Xiao Chen asked again.
“Neither do I.”
Alan shook his head.
“…”
Xiao Chen and the other two looked at Allen, not knowing what to say.
In other words...looking at Vulcan Island, there is no supporter, no ally?
What the hell is going on here!
"Some of the superpowers I know are not from superpower organizations, they are all lone rangers."
Allen explained.
"They can't help much in this matter! Even if they have power, I'm in a weak position right now, and no one dares to stand on my side."
"Originally, many people wanted to support Mr. Allen, but after the Wind Temple announced that it would no longer support them, they no longer dared to support him."
Suddenly, Luke spoke, somewhat angrily.
"Before, Mr. Allen's call to become the 'God of Fire' was very high."
"These are all in the past, there is no need to mention them."
Alan waved his hand.
"It's normal that they don't dare to support me. After all, I don't have the support of a temple, so my chances are slim."
"Who put Feng Man Lou under house arrest? His master?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"No, the old Wind God hasn't come yet. The one who came is the next Wind God. In Chinese terms, he is his senior brother."
Allen said.
"The next Wind God? In other words, not yet?"
Xiao Chen caught something and asked.
"Well, the old Wind God is still in charge of the Wind Temple, but he no longer manages most of the affairs and has handed them over to Adolphus... Adolphus, if nothing unexpected happens, will be the next generation of Wind God."
Allen explained.
"What is the relationship between this Adolphus and Feng Manlou?"
Qin Jianwen, who had been silent, asked.
"It should be OK."
Alan thought for a moment and said.
"However, if Feng Manlou had not left, he might be the one in charge of the Wind Temple now, not Adolphus... There are even rumors that the old Wind God said that he wanted Feng Manlou to inherit the Wind God legacy and become the next generation of Wind God."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen and the other two seemed to be thinking about something.
It seems that the situation at the Wind Temple is also quite complicated.
The reason why Adolphus is under house arrest now may not just be because of the matter of Vulcan Allen.
"Feng Manlou has no intention of taking charge of the Wind Temple, nor does he intend to become the next generation of Wind God."
Alan said slowly.
"If Adolphus is targeting him for this, it's really not worth it."
"Haha, but this Adolphus is worried."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"If he says he won't do it, then he won't do it. What if he wants to do it?"
"Um."
Alan nodded. This was also what he had been thinking about in the past few days.
I guess Fengmanlou should have thought of this as well.
"Brother Chen, do you want to go save Brother Feng?"
Bai Ye looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
“No hurry.”
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"This Adolphus has put Brother Feng under house arrest, and he doesn't dare to do anything to him, at least not now... Lao Huo, you said that the Wind Temple wants a puppet. Is it the Wind Temple that wants it, or is it Adolphus?"
"It makes no difference. The one who is in charge of the Wind Temple now is Adolphus."
Allen said.
"no the same."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"If it's the Wind Temple, then if you don't act as a puppet, there's no way you can get their support. But if it's Adolphus... He's just in charge of the Wind Temple today, but he's not the God of Wind."
"That's right."
Qin Jianwen nodded.
"If we rescue Feng Manlou and the old Wind God supports you, then the Wind Temple will continue to support you. But if even the old Wind God wants a puppet, then that's impossible."
"Old Wind God..."
Alan's eyes flashed, he really couldn't be sure whether it was Adolphus's intention or the old wind god's intention.
However, what Xiao Chen and Qin Jianwen said made sense, and their meanings were different.
Old Fengshen, there’s absolutely no hope.
If it were Adolphus, it would still be possible.
"Let's ask Brother Feng later, he will definitely know."
Xiao Chen said.
"In addition to the Wind Temple, the Thunder Temple, Lightning Temple, and Rain Temple all have supporters?"
"Well, the Thunder God Temple and the Lightning God Temple both support Hadro, while the Rain God Temple supports Ali."
Alan nodded.
"Ali? Female?"
Xiao Chen was startled and asked.
"Yes, a female."
Alan nodded.
"Women also play with fire?"
Bai Ye was surprised.
"Why not? There are many women who have awakened fire abilities."
Alan looked at Bai Ye and said.
"Ali... Lao Huo, you sound quite friendly when you call me that. Do you know me?"
Bai Ye smiled.
"Her name is Ali, not something I call her affectionately."
Alan was helpless.
“…”
Bai Ye was speechless. Okay, it was a misunderstanding.
"Is the Rain God a man or a woman?"
Xiao Chen was curious.
"How can you support a woman to be the God of Fire?"
"The Rain God is a woman, and Ali seems to have some relationship with her."
Allen explained.
“So, if Ali can really become the God of Fire, the relationship between the Temple of Fire and the Temple of Water will be very close.”
"Shouldn't they be incompatible? How can they be so close?"
Bai Ye smiled.
"Besides these four forces, are there any other forces that are qualified to participate?"
"Yes, there are also some large supernatural forces, and there are also official forces here."
Alan nodded.
"It wouldn't have been so troublesome originally, but now the old Fire God has mysteriously disappeared, and no one knows whether he is alive or dead. The Fire God Temple has become even weaker in recent years... Therefore, more and more people want to get a piece of the pie."
"Old Huo, do you want to be the God of Fire for the right to speak in the Fire Temple or for the power of the Fire Temple?"
Xiao Chen looked at the God of Fire and asked curiously.
"Who among those with fire abilities doesn't want to be a Fire God? A Fire God is the pinnacle of fire abilities, a legend!"
Alan paused when he said this.
"Besides... the old Fire God has done me a favor, and I don't want to see the Fire God Temple fall into decline."
