Chapter 268 Locke’s True Purpose! Overpowering Power!

"I'm not the Riddler either... You didn't ask, didn't you..."

Locke sat inside a little aggrievedly, avoiding Su Bai's sharp gaze.

"If you ask me, I will answer!"

"Um, Miss Meloetta, can you give me more tea?"

From the beginning to now, Locke, whose character has been flipped 180 degrees, shamelessly raised the tea cup in his hand.

Meloetta clicked her fingers curiously, and a stream of hot tea flew from the teapot into the teacup.

"Many rumors from the outside world about the Locke family are wrong."

"In fact, every generation of Locke will not contract a dead beast if it is not necessary."

Locke obviously didn't take his family's secrets seriously, and he spilled them like beans from a bamboo tube.

"You also know that contract masters will be affected by dead beasts."

"If Locke, who is the spiritual totem of the contractor, is affected again, this profession will have no future at all."

"I don't know how the first-generation Locke managed not to be led by the breath of the dead beast... Anyway, I can't."

"In short, unless we find the next generation of Locke, or this generation of Locke has completely aged, even if we have innate strong spiritual power, we will not contract with the dead beast."

"And in order to ensure the independence of the Locke family, we generally will not participate in the Contractor's Guild."

"This is also for when the real crisis comes, we can raise our arms and call all the contractors to the front line to fight against the enemy..."

With Locke's explanation step by step, Su Bai finally understood what was going on.

The existence of the Locke family is the last bottom line for all contractors.

No matter how bad these contractors are, when the contemporary Locke, who is still awake, raises his arms and shouts, they will fight for humanity at the risk of their lives for Locke.

As such an existence, it is naturally impossible for Locke to contract a dead beast!

After thinking about this joint, Su Bai has a little more affection for the squinting eyes in front of him.

When Su Bai had no power before, he actually still longed for power.

If he really awakened the contractor, I'm afraid he would also contract dead beasts without hesitation.

Not to mention that he didn't understand the side effects of contract masters at that time. Even if he had enough understanding, Su Bai would have a 50% chance of choosing to become a real contract master.

In this precarious world, if you have no strength, you can only stay in the city forever. How is it different from a bird in a cage?

Locke clearly awakened the contractor, but for the sake of the overall situation, he never contracted the dead beast. Isn't it a kind of imprisonment?

Although this is due to the particularity of the Locke family, but regardless of the deeds, such a Locke... can be called great!

"Meloetta, change it to a pot of tea."

Su Bai snapped his fingers.

"Meromelo!"

Meloetta responded sweetly, then turned around and took out a pot of tea that had already been brewed from the cabinet.

Locke watched this scene speechlessly, looked at the inferior teapot on the table, and then at the teacup in his hand.

Su Bai's elves had attracted all his attention just now, and he didn't even notice that the tea tasted so bitter.

So this guy's tea is different from mine...

…

"In short, I came to Haicheng without any hostility. I have to thank you for giving me the opportunity to come out of Kyoto."

Luke took a sip of the good tea carefully selected by Su Bai, feeling refreshed.

As the heir to the Locke family, he is the subject of intense protection.

For others, this matter must be a headache when faced with Lu Liangpeng and the tough-minded Haicheng.

But it didn't matter to him. He had no plans to let Su Bai go to Kyoto, nor did he plan to do anything to the Elf Center.

So this job that was a headache for others turned into a fat job that gave him an excuse to go out and have fun.

Of course, if it weren't for the fact that the contractor was involved, he probably wouldn't have been able to do anything about it.

As the spiritual leader of the Contractors, it was so touching that he came out to solve the problem of elves!

"So, you're here in Haicheng, and you've also seen Elf, what are you going to do next?"

Su Bai looked curiously at the young and outrageous heir of the Locke family in front of him.

He could feel that Locke was still hiding something. For example, how could a contractor who had not contracted a dead beast come from so far away from Kyoto to Haicheng?

Fixed-point transmission?

With the strength of the Locke family, this is not impossible.

But it's not normal for a guy of this status to not have a guard around him...

But Su Bai was just curious, he didn't care about Locke's strength.

Anyway, as long as it's not looking for trouble.

"Well...that's it. I heard that there is a little guy in Haicheng who has awakened as a contract master but does not have a contract with the dead beast. Is this a thing?"

The tea was refreshing in the mouth, and Locke's squinting eyes seemed a little more curved.

"Xiao Fei? That's true..."

Su Bai touched his chin. Although not many people knew about Zhou Xiaofei's awakening contractor.

But this is not a secret. As a Locke family, it is normal to control the information about the Contractor.

"But if you're here for Xiao Fei...then you're here in vain."

Su Bai shook his head and said: "I will not let Xiao Fei contract a dead beast."

From the standpoint of the Locke family, it is natural to hope that the more contractors, the better.

Zhou Xiaofei has high aptitude and is backed by the Spirit Center. If Locke came here to make Xiaofei a real contractor, then Su Bai would never agree.

"Meromelo!"

"That's right! Xiaofei won't be a contractor, he's a trainer!"

Meloetta and Tianxi regarded Xiaofei as their own, and immediately looked at Locke with disdain.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!"

Locke looked at the disdainful eyes of Meloetta and Tianxi, and said aggrievedly: "I don't contract dead beasts myself, of course I know that contracting dead beasts is not good."

"I mean... I heard that Zhou Xiaofei accidentally awakened a kind of... super-power?"

"You know this as well?"

Su Bai looked at Locke in surprise, the news spread so quickly!

He didn't go around to publicize Zhou Xiaofei's uniqueness, and there were not many people who knew about it in Haicheng City Lord's Mansion.

The Locke family's intelligence capabilities are not simple...

"Sorry, I don't mean to offend. There are actually some people who are loyal to the above in every city lord's mansion. This is something that every city lord defaults to."

Locke apologized: "However, the power of transcendence is indeed... It may be the way to get the contractors out of the current predicament!"

He looked at Su Bai sincerely and said, "If the superpower can be replicated... future contractors will no longer be affected by death energy!"

"You may not believe it if I tell you, but the nature of contractors is actually... not bad!"

Su Bai looked at Locke who looked at him sincerely and nodded silently.

Indeed, when reconstructing the incident, he did not understand Li Jian's behavior at the time.

But thinking about it now, he more or less understood.

Distortion of three views... is not the result that the contract masters want!

Su Bai's fingers kept clasping on the table, making a continuous tapping sound.

After a while, he sighed and said: "I'm not sure, the power of superpower...can it really be awakened by every contractor?"

I'm still feeling uncomfortable now, so I'm going to rest first, and then I'll type another chapter when I get up in the evening. It's really uncomfortable, yuppie
