Chapter 780 The Sage, the Tower! [1st Update]
From her silhouette, one can vaguely see what she looked like when she was six years old.
Gone is the innocent and adorable child she once was; instead, she exudes a coldness.
Even though she fell asleep drunk, Sinai's body didn't relax.
She curled up like a baby, as if on guard against something.
Norton knew that Sinai was originally an adult, so the clothes he bought for her were the kind that could automatically stretch to fit her body.
This is very convenient; she can wear it again once she recovers.
The pajamas accentuated her perfect figure and slender waist.
Sina's appearance is clearly of the cool and aloof type.
But such a scene can be described as "erotic".
The visual impact is enormous.
Norton paused, holding the blanket, and lowered his eyes slightly.
Memory is a wonderful thing.
Once you get to know someone and become close to them, images of them from the past will flood your mind.
It was at this moment that Norton remembered that he had saved a woman who was running around in the alley.
At the time, it was just a casual rescue, and I didn't pay much attention to it.
Sinai did not take the temporary antidote made by Ying Zijin, but she still recovered, which must be because she ate something else.
With that thought in mind, Norton covered the woman with the blanket and prepared to check everything she had eaten.
But just as he turned around, his leg was suddenly hooked.
Norton's body tensed instantly, like a wild beast whose territory had been invaded.
His dark green eyes narrowed sharply, radiating danger.
He turned around and realized that Sinai had almost rolled off the bed, but her legs were tightly hooked around his thighs.
This pose is extremely ambiguous.
Norton bent down and frowned: "You've grown up, and you can't even sleep properly anymore?"
What habits?
Sinai was clearly still drunk, and all his reactions were subconscious.
Then, she rolled into his arms, as if she had found a safe haven.
"Mother……"
Upon hearing those two words, Norton paused, about to pull her hand away, then remained silent for a moment before finally placing the lid on her head.
He had vaguely heard Ying Zijin mention that the former patriarch and first wife of the Lyinger family had passed away early.
She passed away not long after giving birth to twins Sinai and Shiloh.
Norton sat down and pulled her legs and arms off.
He then pressed down on her shoulders to stop her from making a scene.
He lifted her chin with his finger: "Do you recognize me?"
Sinai opened her eyes and nodded obediently: "Daddy..."
"..."
become.
Why is he talking to a drunkard?
Sinai quickly fell asleep again.
Norton left the room only after confirming that she was asleep.
He went to the sofa in the living room, picked up the wine bottles and the pastries made by Suwen, and went into the laboratory to start his experiment.
An hour later, Norton removed his lab gloves and finally reached a conclusion.
Intriguingly, when the beer, baijiu (Chinese liquor), and the snacks brought by Suwen were mixed together, certain elements produced a wonderful chemical reaction.
This chemical reaction produced a new substance, which was the catalyst that helped Sinai recover.
However, it is not stable, so it can only recover in a short period of time.
However, it is completely different from the temporary antidote made by Ying Zijin; it will not harm the human body and will not cause drug resistance.
It is a suitable medicinal guide.
Norton carefully stored the newly extracted substance in a reagent bottle, glanced at the time, and left.
He thought about it for a moment.
Tsk.
She has a pretty good figure.
He wasted a lot of his ingredients.
**
On the other side.
The Academy of Sages.
Sara arrived at the seventeenth door.
Like the other doors, this one is decorated with a pattern resembling a tall tower.
“Chariot is used to going it alone, and has an eccentric personality.” Sara paused, then spoke, not with the condescension she showed Qin Lingyu, but with an attitude of looking at her on equal terms, “Ta, please handle this matter.”
The heavy door slowly opened, and a figure gradually emerged from the darkness.
This is a tall and imposing man.
She had long black hair, a fair complexion, and a cold, fierce look in her eyes.
The chilling aura emanating from her caused even Sara to take a step back.
Combat-type sages are the strongest beings.
"To kill your lover, you're willing to sacrifice dozens, even thousands, of lives," Ta said. "Sara, do you really think it's worth it?"
"Have you all forgotten that my lover and Devil are together?" Sara took a deep breath. "If she hadn't joined Devil in launching the holy war, why would I have done this?"
The power of the sage is too great.
If a second holy war were to break out, it would indeed be a catastrophe of world-ending magnitude.
Last time, the Sage Demon tried to destroy the City of the World; who knows if he will destroy the seven continents and four oceans this time?
"Alright." Ta smiled slightly. "I will take care of everyone who enters the city tonight."
After he finished speaking, he walked out.
Sara finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The horoscope left by the Wheel of Fortune can only determine the location of the support-type sage.
The horoscope, after all, only represents a portion of the power of the Wheel of Fortune, not the horoscope itself.
Therefore, no one can calculate the location of the Sage Demon.
It's impossible to raze the entire world city to the ground just to find Devil.
As the ruler of the world's city, it was naturally worthwhile for her to sacrifice a small number of people to save the majority.
Sara also left the room and walked to the very top of the Sage's Courtyard, a floating building.
She held the scepter, overlooking the entire world city.
Not far away, outside the city.
"Boom!"
More than 30,000 ancient martial arts practitioners who had gathered boarded the plane sent by the IBI.
This was all very novel to the ancient martial arts masters.
Nine out of ten ancient martial arts masters never left the ancient martial arts world after the late 20th century, maintaining ancient habits, at most playing on their mobile phones.
I've never seen a combat-type fleet like this before.
The Second Elder couldn't resist touching an instrument panel in the cockpit, only to be shooed away by IBI Air Fleet Commander Anthony with a fierce look on his face.
Anthony was very unhappy.
He never expected that his superior had a group of subordinates in the ancient martial arts world who wanted to compete with him.
Inside the passenger cabin.
“Don’t rush.” Fu Yunshen turned his head. “Uncle Lu Yuan has no identity information in China. I had Anthony send out the drone. It will take at least a month to complete the matching.”
“Hmm.” Ying Zijing paused. “I’m just getting more and more uneasy.”
Fu Yunshen didn't say anything, just those two words: "I'm here."
Behind the two, Jiang Ran was already fast asleep like a silly dog.
The phone rang at that moment, and Ying Zijing answered it.
"Hello," the man's voice was slightly hoarse, "It's me."
Ying Zijing noticed something was off about his voice and said thoughtfully, "You're a sage, yet you've caught a cold?"
“No.” Norton coughed and frowned coldly. “I don’t have a cold.”
Ying Zijin didn't ask any further questions, and nodded: "What is it?"
“I’ll let you know,” Norton said calmly. “The priestess, observing the horoscope of the Wheel of Fortune, has determined that the Sage Lovers are on their way home.”
Ying Zijin narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly: "The Sage's Lover?"
The plane was full of our own people, and Ying Zijing was on speakerphone.
After deciding to go to the City of the World, she also told Ling Mianxi and the others about the existence of the twenty-two sages.
“Yes, the Sage’s Lover,” Norton said slowly. “She was one of the three sages who fought alongside the demons in the Holy War.”
“Sara is afraid that she will start another holy war, so she wants to kill her before her power and memories are restored.”
Upon hearing this, Fu Yunshen raised his head, his eyes darkening.
If a sage is killed before returning to his rightful place, his power will gradually weaken upon his next reincarnation.
Until it completely falls.
This is the only way to kill a sage, besides responding to a calamity.
“She told me to get rid of everyone who enters the city after tonight,” Norton chuckled coldly. “But I guess she’s still not reassured and will ask the Tower to help.”
The twenty-two sages came first, and then the twenty-two Major Arcanas in the Tarot deck came into being.
In Tarot, the Tower is the only card that carries a negative meaning regardless of whether it is upright or reversed.
Correspondingly, the power of the Sage's Tower will also become increasingly greater.
Ying Zijing slowly raised her eyes and looked out the window at the dark clouds gathering in the distance: "You're too late."
Norton's expression changed.
Ying Zijing stood up and opened the door beside her: "He's already here."
She and Fu Yunshen exchanged a glance, then got off the plane, which was still in flight.
"Boom!"
At that moment, the sound of thunder drowned out the sound of the airplane, and the wind suddenly surged.
The sky and earth were dark, the wind howled, and blue and purple lightning flashed.
It had an overwhelming sense of impending doom.
The Twenty-Two Sages, the Tower.
Special ability, disaster!
It's Monday, please give me some votes~~~
Why are some sages nameless? Because the author couldn't think straight! _(:з」∠)_
*
I told my classmate that I'd visit you in Changsha during summer vacation, and to remember to treat me to a meal.
She: No, I'll lock you in a dark room and make you write.
Me: ? ? ? Are you kidding me?
