Chapter 520: Lanqi Believes He Can't Fail

The morning sky of Ikerita was filled with a light blue-green color. In this summer day, the air of the whole city was particularly fresh.

The first floor of the Cat Boss Restaurant still lingered with the aroma of oatmeal and cheese.

It was obvious that the three new employees had just finished their breakfast and were chatting.

However, a visitor broke the usual tranquility.

"You...!"

Talia's pupils contracted, her mouth slightly opened, and she couldn't say a complete sentence, but her expression said it all -

It was a mixture of astonishment and confusion, as if her brain had stopped working.

Her body seemed to lean back slightly, and she instinctively wanted to retreat from the source of shock.

Then her fingers clenched into fists again, and she began to unconsciously pull the corners of her clothes. This was a self-comforting behavior under extreme emotional shock.

Her shoulders were tense, and she was instinctively reacting defensively.

Talia made more than a dozen fake moves at once.

It was so embarrassing, she had never suffered this in her life!

The surrounding environment lost its importance at this moment. All her spirit and emotions were completely focused on the things in front of her, making her world temporarily only have the focus in front of her, and everything else became blurred and secondary.

Although the three employees in the restaurant in front of her were faces she had never seen before, Talia recognized who they were in an instant because of the familiar temperament and magic fluctuations on them!

The woman sitting in front of the bar was stroking her chest with a calm expression, her eyes were closed, and her black long skirt was like a noble lady. Occasionally, her movements were also very light. It was Shinora.

And the casual and playful short-haired woman, wearing a leather vest, tight leather pants and high boots, was obviously Antanas.

The man wearing a dark brown suit vest, who looked particularly introverted and deep behind the dimly lit bar, must be Pranay.

Although their eyes were naturally cold, they all became stunned when they saw Talia at this moment.

Both sides looked at each other for a few seconds.

Finally.

"Talia, it was Ranchi who brought us out of the Protos Empire."

Antanas rushed over and hugged the stunned Talia.

"Ah...ah..."

Talia let Antanas shake her constantly, but her mind was still blank and she couldn't come back to her senses.

She felt that her brain couldn't move.

Has someone cast the illusion of falling gentle land?

I actually opened the door and saw Antanas, Shinora and Pranai?

How is it possible?

Ranchi only went to the North Continent for half a year, and he was able to find the whereabouts of the three great demons in the Protos Empire, and how did he "bring" them back? !

Talia finally shook her head violently and pinched Antanas' face.

"Ah, it hurts!"

Antanas shouted with his eyes closed.

"It's not a dream..."

Talia murmured.

"Talia, you have changed! Who taught you to pinch others to judge dreams!"

Antanas' cheeks were red, but tears of joy overflowed from the corners of his eyes, and he complained to Talia.

At the entrance of the restaurant not far away.

"Meow, Lanqi finally did a good thing."

The cat boss lay on Hyperion's head, watching this touching reunion, and couldn't help wiping tears.

It was dumbfounded when it saw Tata, who was always cold as ice for the first time.

"Yeah..."

The Great Love Poet, who had stood beside Hyperion and the cat boss at some point, nodded with relief, his voice like he was gritting his teeth.

The Great Love Poet went back to Ikerite with the three great demons first, so it was normal for him to suddenly appear in the store.

"..."

Hyperion didn't understand why, and felt a chill.

In her impression.

Since returning from Helrom Prison, the Great Love Poet has become less talkative. When Lanqi asked her to work, she would do it without saying a word. When Lanqi talked to her, she only liked to answer with a smile.

Lanqi said that maybe this is growth.

He was very pleased with this.

Only Hyperion felt that such a Great Love Poet made her a little creepy.

The way the poet of great love looked at Lanqi at this moment was as if he had found his prey, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was a perfect fake smile!

Hyperion always had a bad feeling.

Sitting on one side of the restaurant bar.

"Talia..."

Unlike Antanas' carefree personality, Shinola seemed to have not recovered from her shock at this moment. She could not imagine that the moment Talia walked in, she looked like a foodie who had completely integrated into the human world.

Is this really the Talia she knew?

Shinola looked at her brother.

However.

Planai had already skillfully wiped the glass and pretended that nothing had happened.

He had a top-notch sense of life-saving.

"..."

Talia's cheeks turned red as she saw the reaction of the brother and sister.

If they showed a sneer at this moment, it would be an acceptable punishment for Talia.

But.

Their evasive attitude made Talia feel that everything was over and she was on pins and needles!

Now her embarrassment had made them all feel embarrassed!

"Come with me."

Talia grabbed Antanas's shoulders, slowly pushed her away, and looked at Lanqi and said, her voice could not tell whether she was happy or angry.

But every word was trembling.

"Tata."

Lanqi was still smiling naturally, and his mind seemed extremely pure.

But he stopped talking halfway.

He can only move his head now, and his body can't move at all as if it's pressed against a mountain.

Thalia was standing next to him, controlling his body with mental magic.

Thalia's golden eyes stared at him like a falcon, completely ignoring how weak, pitiful and helpless he was. She only asked him whether he should go by himself or if she would help him go.

She quickly turned around and walked towards the stairs.

"I have something to talk to Tata alone..."

Lan Qi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated a little, and he greeted the three big demons politely, leaving the confused big demons and the Cat Boss who suddenly became too quiet on the first floor of the restaurant, followed Talia, and walked along the creaking wood. Stairs to the second floor.

After walking to the deepest part of the corridor, Thalia took out the key from her pocket and opened the door to her home.

"Go in."

Thalia said through gritted teeth.

Before Lan Qi hesitated, he was pushed into the room by Talia.

"Tata you..."

He staggered for two steps before standing still, looking around this familiar cabin, and couldn't help but say.

The walls are painted in soft cream, light orange, and beige colors, which are warm and bright. The wooden furniture has a natural texture after being carefully polished by Boss Mao when building the store.

But at this moment, the hearts of the two people in the closed room were not at all peaceful.

"you!"

Thalia grabbed Lan Qi's tie, the look in her eyes changed from resentment to determination to emotion.

She was so caught off guard just now that she had some thoughts of dying with Lan Qi.

But the appearance of the three big demons left her at a loss to express her gratitude to Lan Qi.

"What exactly did you do in the Northern Continent?"

Thalia was distraught at the moment.

She couldn't read Lan Qi's mind.

She didn't know if this guy was really doing it for her own good, or if he was just trying to make her laugh.

But that's not important for now, she just wants to understand Lan Qi's magical experience in the Northern Continent.

How on earth did he manage to bring her three big demons back to her in just one trip to the Northern Continent?

The scariest thing in the world is that an acquaintance spends a long time with another group of acquaintances without knowing it, laughing and talking about her dark history with each other!

"This starts with the current situation of the Protos Empire. This issue is very complicated. Please calm down first and let me explain it to you slowly."

Lan Qi raised his hands and signaled Talia to take a deep breath. Her mood was too unstable now. If she accidentally stimulated the poet again, Lan Qi couldn't imagine what would happen.

His heartbeat was just a little faster now, but it was still steady and he had everything under control.

Fortunately, Thalia didn't know that he was almost misunderstood as her husband by the big demons in the Protos Empire at the beginning, otherwise it would be even harder to explain.

"You...Protos Empire...my husband?"

Thalia said with a trembling voice.

Lan Qi: "???"

When did this guy become able to read minds? !

And why did you only read half of it! ——
