Chapter 29 Emotion

When Rourou saw Lucian, Lucian was arguing with Zhou Yiyu endlessly.

Judging from the flushed expression on his face, he was obviously very angry.

He should be outraged.

Any normal person would resent the act of claiming the relics of his favorite wife.

The problem is that the person who made this "excessive and disrespectful" request is also his biggest support for avenging his wife, not to mention that Zhou Yiyu is still holding the bottle of Michael's blood he needs.

"Why can't you change the terms? I can give you more dollars!" Seeing Zhou Yiyu's refusal to back down, Lucian asked angrily.

"Klein paid dollars to those guys who tried to kill you, did you see that he succeeded, sir."

dollar? No matter whether this thing is for the North District or the West District, there is no temptation at all, or its only function is to give everyone a reason to come forward in this world.

"But this is my wife's relic, why do you have to get it?"

Gentle strode over: "The reason is never important, Mr. Lucian. The point is what price you are willing to pay for what you want. Is it simply to keep a dead thing for the sake of missing it, or in exchange for a bigger one?" power to revenge?"

Lucian replied: "But it is also possible that I don't need to pay such a price and kill Victor anyway."

His tone was very firm, just like the previous adventurers in the West End who refused to accept Gentle's meaning. The difference is that now the people in the West District have learned to respect Shen Yi and his opinions, but it is Lucian who has started to "play his temper".

This is also a common human problem, people always blindly believe that if others can do it, they can do it themselves. Especially as a leader, if he does not have this kind of character called self-confidence, then he is not worthy of being a good leader at all.

Obviously, if Lucian doesn't experience some lessons, he won't bow to Gentle and them.

But the problem is that Gentle and the others can't just let Lucian fail so easily - this is a battlefield, not a school, and one failure is often enough to be fatal.

Thinking of this, Wen Rou couldn't help feeling a headache.

It would be great if Shen Yi was here, with his three-inch tongue, he would definitely be able to convince Lucian - he can always grasp the crux of the problem.

So where is the key to Lucian?

Rourou began to imitate Shen Yi's train of thought intentionally or unintentionally.

She finally realized that the problem still lies in the trading method itself.

Lucian's hatred for Victor and the vampire family, of course, is due to the fact that the werewolf was enslaved, but more comes from his love for his wife, otherwise he would not have been so happy when he was a slave captain. See Part 3 for details Part, The Underworld Prequel).

After the death of Lucian's wife, Lucian led the werewolves to rebel. Although the banner was those old-fashioned liberal arguments, the driving force for revenge was always his wife's death.

And this relic is precisely the one thing that bears all his thoughts about his wife.

It is completely unacceptable for Lucian to exchange Lucian's key in a transaction.

It's like you promise a young man that I can make you a millionaire, but you have to pay a price, which is to castrate yourself, but anyone with a normal mind will not accept it.

But if you change the condition to one year of abstinence, the situation may be quite different.

Thinking of this, Wen Rou knew what to do.

She smiled slightly: "I think you misunderstood, Mr. Lucian, actually we don't necessarily want you to give us your wife's belongings."

"What's the meaning?"

The gentle brain turned rapidly, and while carefully wording and phrasing, he slowly answered: "Actually...we just want to use it for one thing."

"What's up?"

"You know, the reason why Victor was able to become one of the three elders of vampires is because he was the first vampire to be assimilated by Marcus, which made his strength second only to Marcus. And with Marcus That formidable strength, in front of Victor, had to bow his head, that's because..."

"He was once a lord, a leader of great temporal power, who had an army of his own."

"Yes, that's right. You know it takes a lot to maintain an army."

Lucian frowned: "What do you want to say?"

Wenrou had already sorted out the thoughts in her mind, and she quickly said: "We suspect that Victor has buried a lot of wealth in private. It is not US dollars, but a large amount of gold, antiques, and precious jewelry from the twelfth century..."

Lucian understood a little bit, he looked at Wen Rou in surprise: "Damn it, why do you think so?"

"Mercenaries fight for money." Rourou replied naturally, she found that one of the consequences of learning from Shen Yi is that she has to be more shameless - a few minutes ago she was still saying that the dollar was meaningless to them, but now she has to use more US dollars as an excuse.

"What does that have to do with my wife's relics?"

"As far as we know, Victor has always wanted to get this thing back. In recent hundreds of years, Victor's economic situation has not been very good, at least he has not made him more brilliant than before."

Lucian understood: "So you suspect that my wife's relic is the key to his treasury, or one of the keys."

She smiled softly and didn't answer directly. The best way to make the other party believe a lie is to let him deduce the result by himself. Obviously, Lucian did not live up to her expectations.

King Kong had also guessed the tenderness of his mind, and he immediately interfaced: "We don't really need your wife's relic, just to see if it can bring us what we want. If you can temporarily give it to us for safekeeping , we can return it to you later.”

Lucian looked at King Kong, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally nodded: "If this is the case, I can consider accepting it. But your guesses seem groundless, and I'm worried that you will get nothing by then ...This is a gamble!"

King Kong replied indifferently: "We can even bet on our own lives, so why not bet on a treasure?"

"How many days are you going to borrow?"

Gently replied: "Ten days. If we get nothing within ten days, it still belongs to you."

"Then I accept." Lucian took off the pendant from his neck and handed it to Zhou Yiyu.

"Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

———————————————

There was darkness under the ruins.

Shen Yi touched the wall beside him, and sighed: "It seems that it's not easy to go out."

Due to the incomplete explosion, the two walls of the elevator passage did not completely collapse, and because of the support of the elevator above, a hollow area appeared under the ruins.

Shen Yi and Serena were located in this hollow area, avoiding the fate of being buried alive.

But it is not easy to get out.

Even though Shen Yi already possessed great strength, he still couldn't rush out from under the huge ruins piled up with hundreds of tons of reinforced concrete - if his strength reached difficulty level four, maybe there would be no problem.

He tried to open the team channel again, but there was still no response. The North District somehow blocked the communication function of the channel, making it impossible for him to contact Wen Rou and the others.

"It seems that we can only dig slowly." Serena replied.

Shen Yi shook his head: "No, the air can't last that long."

He looked back at Serena: "It seems that I can only use the teleportation beads to get out of here first, and then call my soldiers to quickly dig here. Or call my teammates over, get the miniature world and bring you out .But either way, I have to leave you first."

"No!" Serena yelled.

She hugged Shen Yi suddenly: "Don't leave me."

Shen Yi was slightly taken aback, Serena had already put her arms around Shen Yi's neck: "I'll be scared if you leave."

This is really not like something a death messenger can say!

However, at that moment, Serena looked at Shen Yi with an extremely serious expression: "I need you to be by my side."

"But……"

"No but. Don't forget I'm a vampire...I can live without air. I know you can too, right?"

"...if...it's not too long."

"Stay here, then, with me...we're going to go out, but I don't want to be now...I think maybe it's time to seize this rare opportunity before we go out."

Her voice gradually sank, and she was completely nestled in Shen Yi's arms.

Suddenly Shen Yi felt his body heat up, and at some point, Serena had already taken off her coat.

His hand touched Serena's tender body, the delicate and smooth skin brought a silky feel, Shen Yi's body froze slightly: "You..."

He wanted to say it but didn't say it, Serena's fiery red lips were printed on Shen Yi's mouth.

She took his hand and put it on her chest. The area where the mountains and peaks overlapped was soft and elastic.

hell!

Shen Yi couldn't stop his heartbeat anymore, and his physiological instincts responded quickly.

Especially after Serena took his hand and slid down, allowing him to touch the more mysterious and alluring area...

He hastily pushed Serena away: "No, Serena..."

"What's the matter?" In the darkness, Serena looked at Shen Yi in surprise: "Don't you want it?"

Shen Yi sighed: "To be honest, I never planned it that way."

"why?"

"..." Shen Yi had a headache for a while.

He didn't deny that he had a crush on Serena, especially since she was so similar to Anna, and even their tempers had a lot in common. But that doesn't mean he's going to have something to do with Serena.

It's not because he doesn't want to, but because he feels that he has to be responsible for tenderness.

Gentle is not the kind of woman who can accept that his man has many women, and he is not the kind of man who can make his woman sad.

He doesn't mind flirting, but only if he doesn't have a woman around who needs him to take responsibility.

Now Serena has pushed him into a very awkward situation.

"I... I don't know what to say, Serena." Shen Yi carefully worded: "It's just... I don't think we can..."

Serena's body visibly stiffened when he said the word "no."

"But you said you loved me," she murmured.

These words were like an electric current, which completely numb Shen Yi's body.

He suddenly found himself inadvertently jumping into a trap he had dug for himself, and now, he couldn't get out.

Serena seemed to understand something.

She took a few steps back: "I see, you never loved me, you are lying to me."

"No, it's not like that, Serena." Shen Yi hurriedly said, he wanted to explain but didn't know where to start.

Serena was already smiling wryly, her voice was a little sobbing: "I'm so stupid, I would believe you. You saved me time and time again, and I was born and died for me, and I was moved by it, and fell in love with you because of it... No, you are not for me, you have another purpose, I should have understood. I remembered, when I saw you for the first time, you said that I am like your friend...you love not me, but Your friend."

Hell, it's not some nice misunderstanding.

Shen Yi hurriedly said: "Serena, listen to me, it's not like that."

"What was that like?"

Shen Yi had a headache.

He didn't know how to explain it, but he knew that if he couldn't give a perfect explanation, then he would lose Serena's trust—under the current circumstances, it would undoubtedly be fatal.

When words cannot solve a problem, the only solution is action.

He hugged Serena and kissed the tip of her nose lightly.

Serena closed her eyes slightly, feeling the warmth this man brought her.

leaning against Shen Yi, she whispered: "Come into me..."
