Chapter 379: Lanqi and Hyperion's Different Paths to the Same End
Michella was beside them, her eyes full of throbbing.
In her eyes, the two had long lost their previous alienation and displeasure, replaced by a deep understanding and surprise.
In the flash of the camera and the gentle afterglow of the surrounding street lights, the eyes of the two intertwined in the world of rain.
The lights seemed to exist for this moment, outlining their outlines deeply and gently.
On their faces, there was a bit of childhood innocence and a little relief after adulthood.
The passage of time became insignificant at this moment, and they seemed to have returned to that carefree era, the old place where they had run and played countless times in their childhood.
"..."
The cat boss in Lanqi's shadow was reluctant to come out.
After finding out the truth, it was scared to the point of almost losing its soul.
And it felt that the noble girl seemed to have made a mistake, and made up a series of plots that did not belong to these two people.
"I need to leave."
Lanqi did not stay in the gradually falling rain for long, and used his eyes to let the security personnel understand his intentions.
The guards quickly and skillfully opened a passage in the crowd, providing a convenient way for Ranch to leave.
The lights refracted in the raindrops, becoming soft and blurred. The crowd around them slowly retreated under the guidance of the security personnel. Although they kept calling for Rocky McCarthy, they were also full of respect for his departure.
"I'll take you back."
Ranch said.
Hyperion nodded behind him.
Under the escort of the security personnel holding umbrellas, Ranch and the two young ladies of the Milford family walked all the way to the side of the road. Their steps were calm and steady in the rain, and soon they came to the parked magic vehicle.
The door was opened steadily by the security personnel, and the light flowed out from the inside. They got into the car together, and the door was gently closed, isolating themselves from the noise of the outside world.
After the security personnel ensured that all the people around were evacuated, the vehicle slowly started and accelerated away, passing through the rain curtain and blending into the night of Helrom.
Rain slid across the car window.
Lanqi sat in the front row, and through the flowing rain, he could only see the blurred street scene outside the window slowly receding.
The soft seats, warm light, and gentle background music in the car all made people feel peaceful and comfortable.
But he always felt that there seemed to be a strong gaze behind him, so he didn't dare to look back.
Finally.
"What's wrong with you?!"
Huparian became excited again, and asked Lanqi regardless of the driver in the front row and Michela beside him.
Although she knew that some things should be discussed with Lanqi alone, she was really frightened when she saw Lanqi appear on the giant screen in the square.
She never thought that when she came to the Protoss Empire from the Kingdom of Estelan, Lanqi had already reached the stage of talking about running for president!
No matter what, she had to severely reprimand Lanqi this time, let him know that they were just here to do the project, and they shouldn't be so conspicuous in the northern continent. What if they couldn't get away at that time, and what if Dean Loren had a heart attack?
The cat boss hid in Lanqi's shadow and trembled, not daring to show his head. As long as Hugh didn't notice it, it would not come out again before Lanqi dealt with the problem.
It was the first time that it saw Hugh who was a little angry.
"When I first arrived in the Protoss Empire, my life was hanging by a thread at sea. I was rescued by a kind southern lord, and then I was attacked by the Resurrection Church on the way..."
Lanqi turned his head and looked at Hugh with innocent green eyes. He was silent for a moment, then lowered his eyebrows and talked about his past.
Hyperion didn't know what to say.
"..."
Looking at Lanqi's pitiful appearance, Hyperion felt soft again.
She bit her lip.
In her heart, she only thanked the goddess for blessing him, so that he could survive the storm on the sea with surging magic power.
After listening to Lanqi's story about how he brought the cat boss all the way from the south to the imperial capital Helrom, Hyperion didn't speak.
"..."
She took a deep breath, and seemed to sigh heavily, calming her emotions and looking at Lanqi.
"During this period, besides Boss Cat, has anyone led you astray?"
She always felt that Lanqi alone would not become so unscrupulous.
It was as if someone gave him the confidence after a certain turning point, and instructed him to speed up like a car thief!
"No."
Lanqi thought for a while and answered.
Sigrid was his honest friend and a friend of different ages. The two of them played with each other and did not lead anyone astray at all.
"Really?"
Huplien looked at Lanqi with some uncertainty. She always felt that Lanqi seemed to have thought of someone just now.
"Really not, if you don't believe me, ask Boss Cat."
After Lanqi finished speaking, Hyperion's sight also looked at Lanqi's feet.
Suddenly his shadow trembled, but the cat did not show up for a long time.
"..."
Huplien pondered for a long time and decided to remain skeptical about this matter.
Anyway, she will be optimistic about Lanqi next time.
She will also meet the people that Lanqi met in the Northern Continent one by one.
She wants to find out who led Lanqi astray, and she will never let Lanqi get together with that person again!!
"It's just right, you need to come with me later, I have something to tell you."
Lanqi thought for a while, and said with a serious look.
Before he left, he promised Sigrid that he would go back to find her after the interview.
He had originally planned to discuss with Sigrid tonight how to call in people from the Tyrant Branch to contact the Great Demons at the bottom of the Helrom Prison.
Now that Hyperion is here, this matter is basically completed.
Hyperion, who can take the Great Love Poet into the prison, is undoubtedly the best candidate.
At that time, he can take over the Great Love Poet and go down with Hyperion.
It should be more convenient for him to talk to the Great Demons in the prison with the face of the Great Love Poet.
The only value of a useless demon princess like Talia is to give her identity to him and let him play the role of a real princess of the last descendants of the demons.
"No problem, but... why are you looking at me like that?"
Huprian always felt that Lanqi was a little glad that she came.
But Lanqi obviously reached this position in the empire, and she should not be able to help Lanqi, but instead had to ask him to help her.
"I can only say that you came at the right time."
Lanqi sighed.
Whether it is Sigrid or Hyperion, they are too reliable.
Then Ranchi looked at Michela beside Hyperion,
"Michela, after I send you home, I have something to talk to your sister about."
"I understand, I understand, sister, you can come back at night or not."
Michela nodded repeatedly.
"...You seem to have misunderstood something. We are all in the residential area on the north side of the Protos Royal Academy."
Ranchi said helplessly.
The secret station of the Tyrant Branch stationed at the Protos Royal Academy where he and Hyperion were going to go, and the home of the direct soldier Gloria, should be not far from the residence of Hyperion and Michela, and it is actually only a few steps away.
"Why are you also at the Protos Royal Magic Academy?"
Hyperion no longer intends to explain to Michela. The more he explains, the more confusing it becomes. I am afraid that he can only tell Michela everything when he completes his mission and returns to the southern continent.
Hyperion only knew that Lanqi was now a political celebrity in the Protoss Empire, and she didn't know why he seemed to live in the school.
If Lanqi had a part-time job or relationship in this school, then her troubles would definitely be reduced a lot.
But when the two keywords "Lanqi" and "school" came together, she had a bad feeling.
