Chapter 1551 Only One Person Left

After the banquet, the Fairy Queen ordered me to take Achilles to the treehouse prepared in advance to rest.

Turn left and right according to the tree house number, and soon we arrived at our destination.

Standing five meters away from the tree house, my eyes trembled slightly and I felt a little embarrassed. I couldn't help but sigh: Grandma Queen, I wonder if you did it accidentally or on purpose?

The reason why I feel resentful is not without purpose.

The treehouse designated for Achilles to rest is far opposite from the treehouse I bought for Boss Ren.

The two treehouses are only a street apart, more than ten meters apart. With Achilles' strong strength and sharp senses, except for Boss Ren, a battle-hardened master-level assassin, anyone else who makes the slightest move will immediately be killed. Will be discovered by Achilles.

In this way, it is impossible to hide things. Only by being honest with each other can we live in peace.

After thinking for a moment, I turned to Achilles and said, "Are you in a hurry to rest?"

Achilles didn't know what I meant. He was startled for a moment, then shook his head and said, "There's no hurry."

I nodded, looked up at the sky, and said, "It's still early, I'll take you to meet someone."

Achilles paused for a second and said, "Okay."

I was about to lift my foot when I suddenly remembered something and took it back again. With a serious look on my face, I said, "Before I meet this person, I need a guarantee from you."

"Promise?" Achilles looked puzzled and said, "What guarantee?"

"Promise you won't be impulsive," I said, "and also make sure you won't do anything."

Achilles frowned slightly and said, "Listening to what you said, it seems that the person you led me to see should be my enemy rather than my friend."

"We're not really enemies." I shook my head and said, "It's just that we have different positions."

Achilles pondered for a moment and said: "I can promise not to be impulsive, but if the other party strikes first, I will not show mercy."

"Can."

I took Achilles to the door of the tree house opposite, knocked on it a few times, and shouted, "Hey, Boss Ren, open the door. I'm here with one of your 'old friends'."

A few seconds later, the treehouse door slowly opened. I stretched out my hand and pulled the door open. I turned back and nodded to Achilles and said, "You can come in. Remember what you just promised."

Without hesitation, Achilles leaned forward and entered the tree house.

Sunlight shines through the treehouse windows and into the treehouse hall. The light is soft and has a touch of sleepy pale yellow, which is in harmony with the setting sun that is about to set on the horizon.

In the middle of the hall, a thin old man was holding a teapot and pouring three cups of tea in a leisurely manner. Looking at his indifferent expression and the naturalness with which he poured the tea, anyone who looked at him at first glance would think that this was the case. He is an extraordinary and powerful hermit.

But this illusion will only appear at the first glance. At the second glance, this detached charm will be gone, because you will see the scar on his cheek like a centipede.

"It's you!" Achilles spoke first, with a stern look in his eyes and a surge of momentum around him.

"It's me." Boss Renn smiled indifferently, and the scar looked even more terrible: "Xiao Yi, you really brought me an amazing 'old friend'!"

I curled my lips and didn't say anything back. After all, I failed to notify Boss Rennes in advance.

After an awkward moment, I said, "Sit down and let's chat for a while. There are some things that we always have to say. Only by saying them can we resolve the misunderstanding."

Achilles was very considerate, and maybe he also felt that some things had to be discussed, so he strode over, sat down on the side of the sofa, picked up the tea cup, and drank it in one gulp without it being too hot.

Boss Renne sneered: "Aren't you afraid that the tea is poisonous?"

Putting the tea cup on the coffee table, Achilles said loudly: "If you want to kill me, you won't use poison, but a knife."

"I didn't expect that you, the target of my assassination, would actually know me so well. It's rare, it's really rare." Boss Renne chuckled, "If you weren't a lackey of the Carter family, I wouldn't mind making friends with you."

Achilles said seriously: "Since I promised Carter Adams a thousand years ago to become his attendant and protect his family, what if I am called a lackey a thousand years later?"

This awe-inspiring aura and these unchanging and righteous words couldn't help but make me slightly moved.

If I were in Achilles's position, could I really stick to my promise like Achilles and never regret it for a thousand years?

After thinking secretly for a moment, I couldn't come to a conclusion. After all, promises are only binding on gentlemen. A villain like me can't guarantee that I will be able to promise.

Of course, whether I can keep my promise depends on the situation. If the person I promise is my family, I will definitely try my best to realize it. Anyway, for a person like me who protects my shortcomings, my family is more important than anything else.

We sat on three sides, facing each other, and it felt like we were divided into three parts of the world.

Boss Renne took the lead. He pointed to the hideous scar on his face and said, "Thanks to you, this is the most fatal injury since my debut."

Achilles also responded tit-for-tat, saying: "That assassination was also the most shocking one I have ever encountered so far."

"What a pity" Boss Ren said with a evil smile.

"It's a pity" Achilles stared at Boss Ren and said solemnly.

I hurriedly changed the story: "I said, how long has it been since this happened? Why bother bringing it up again to hurt each other's feelings? I brought the two of you together this time, not to ask you to continue to be at odds with each other, but to clarify what happened before. The source of all kinds of entanglements.”

After that, I turned to Achilles and said, "You only heard boss Ren's angry words saying that you are a lackey of the Carter family. Do you know why Boss Ren said such angry words?"

Achilles sighed and said, "I don't know."

"Let me ask you, in your time, how many legendary heroes fought bravely to fight for a peaceful future for mankind?"

Achilles thought for a moment and said, "More than a thousand."

"However, there are only seven people who have truly left their names in history and finally received the treatment they deserve as legendary heroes. Have you ever thought about where the other people have gone?"

"This" Achilles looked shocked and didn't know how to answer.

"The so-called cunning rabbit dies and the lackey cooks, that's what it is." I said coldly: "A considerable number of legendary heroes did not die in the battle with monsters, but died under the butcher's knife of their own people. Among them, there are The Carter family you want to protect."

Achilles' expression changed. After a long while, he said: "I understand what you are saying, but what does this have to do with him?"

I shook my head, sighed, and said: "Boss Lane's ancestor is also one of the many legendary heroes who survived, but he was ruthlessly persecuted by the Carter family. Even if he lived in seclusion several times, it was of no avail. To this day, his family , he is the only one left."
