Chapter 871: Path to Heaven and Night Talk
Hell of the Abyss...Okay.
Faced with the dissuasion from Director Capricorn, Leon nodded after a slight hesitation.
Although he didn’t quite approve of the clean-up bureau’s style of conduct, Lyon still chose to listen to the advice of a senior who had been a director for decades and based on his past experience.
After seeing him nod, the nervous Capricorn director couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and then took the initiative to ask:
"Aquarius, it will take ten days for Joan of Arc to be ready. Are you going to stay at the main bureau these days? Or do you want to go back to the Virgin Branch?"
"Let's go back to the Maiden Branch."
Leon thought for a while and replied:
"It's been more than half a month since I left for the Kingdom of Witches. I want to go home first."
"Okay, then I'll give it to you."
After nodding to show that he understood, Director Capricorn's blue eyes flickered slightly, with a faint white fluorescence, and the light beam belonging to the [Paradise Path] in Capricorn Palace also flashed, and then changed its position and landed on Lyon. In front of you.
"I've changed the position."
Raising his hand and pointing towards the white beam of light, Director Capricorn said:
"You just need to walk in, and when you land, you will be at the door of the Maiden Branch."
Hey guys, global level precise positioning and transmission? This is so convenient!
After looking enviously at the light beam in front of him, Leon couldn't help but ask:
"Lord Capricorn, how did you get this [Paradise Path]? Are there any similar abnormal objects in the bureau?"
"Haha, this thing is not an abnormality."
Director Capricorn smiled when he heard this, and then explained:
“Strictly speaking, [Paradise Trail] is actually a special effect of the plane of Heaven Mountain.
Just like you will have a body when you enter the living world, and only your soul will be left when you enter the world of death, Heaven Mountain also has its own plane rules. It has two sides with the Abyss and Hell, which can lock "good thoughts" and "evil deeds" respectively, and Inspire or seduce them.
During the years when I was purifying Heaven Mountain, I slightly intercepted a small part of this 'inspiration' rule, and changed the recruitment point from the foot of Heaven Mountain to my body, so that I can transfer any possession I perceive." "People with good intentions" were directly forcibly recruited to my side.
As for sending you back to the Maiden Branch, it's just the reverse application of this ability. "
"..."
I don’t quite understand the specific principle, but it seems to be very powerful.
After nodding his head in understanding, Leon said goodbye to Director Capricorn, and then took the initiative to walk into the range of the light beam. When he opened his eyes again after a while, the world in front of him had changed from the main hall of Capricorn Palace to It has become a familiar door to the Maiden Branch.
"Um?"
The moment Leon landed, the window in the northeast corner of the first floor was suddenly pushed open, revealing a somewhat messy red-haired head.
"Who I thought it was...it turns out it's you who's back."
After sticking his head out and squinting his eyes for a moment, the sleepy red-haired director couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled and waved to Leon at the door.
"Come on, don't go through the front door, just climb in through the window!"
"Director."
After calling out, Leon raised his head and glanced at the dark night sky. He felt that Anna and the others should not have woken up at this time. After thinking about it, he did not go home immediately. Instead, he turned around and walked towards the red-haired director, climbed through the window and entered. into her office.
"Leon."
After picking up the wine bottle on the table and taking a sip, the red-haired director, who was wearing silk pajamas, sat directly on the desk and then asked curiously:
"Why did you come back first? Where are Laila and Joshua?"
"I was summoned to the headquarters by Director Capricorn using [Paradise Path] and came back after the board meeting. Laila and the others should still be on their way back."
"That's it..."
The red-haired director nodded when he heard this, then looked up at Leon standing in front of him, and took another sip of wine with a slightly sad expression.
"Director... Hey... Although the style of the bureau has always been to promote those who are capable, your promotion speed is still too fast. It has not been half a year since I recruited you. I didn't expect that I would have to call you Mr. Director." ”
"Director is just a title, but you, Director..."
After looking at the somewhat messy thin blanket on the sofa, Leon stared at the wine bottle in the red-haired director's hand and couldn't help but frown:
"Were you sleeping just now? Why did you start drinking just after you woke up?"
"I didn't just wake up, I just drank a few more sips to get ready for sleep...well..."
After drinking up all the liquor in the bottle, the red-haired director with a faint blush on his cheeks stared at Leon with a hazy look, and then joked with a smile:
"Humph, it's different when you become a director. They start to take care of me... By the way, do you want a bite?"
"..."
You drunkard...
Looking at the red-haired director who opened another bottle of wine while chatting and laughing, took a sip and handed it to him, Leon couldn't help but take the bottle and said helplessly:
"Then you go to sleep first and I won't disturb you."
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
"Forget it, it's already this time, why should I sleep?"
After looking out the window at the fish-belly white sky, the red-haired director opened another bottle of wine, then crossed his legs in an unsightly manner, sat on the table and asked with a smile:
"This board meeting is discussing the issue of the dead world, right? Have you directors come up with any results from the discussion?"
"It's a result." Leon thought for a moment and replied: "The bureau is preparing to go to war with the dead world."
"Huh?!"
Hearing this, the red-haired director who was drinking couldn't help but choke, and most of the wine spilled on the front of his white pajamas, leaving a large dark pink wet mark.
"Go to war directly with the dead world? Those old guys... cough, those guys who always like to play it safe, actually acted decisively this time?"
"..."
Old guy, right? You mean old guy, right!
Seeing the red-haired director with eyes wide open in surprise, as if he had discovered a cockroach that could blow a B-BOX, Leon nodded silently and confirmed:
"Although at the beginning, the situation was still inclined to continue the discussion, but after Director Sagittarius talked about the requirements of the Death Realm, I gave the materials of the forty True Gods to Lady Taurus and asked her to forge an abnormal object specifically for the Lord of the Death Realm, and basically passed it unanimously."
"I thought..."
After listening to Leon's retelling, the red-haired director nodded and said with a look of understanding:
"This is the board meeting I know. If the conditions of the Dead World were not too harsh, and if you hadn't intervened, the result this time would definitely be to continue the talks with the Dead World... Who will go this time? I must have been excluded again. "
"Yes."
Lyon nodded and said:
"According to the intention of Mr. Taurus, only the Director of the Zodiac will be recruited for this operation, specifically Aries, Sagittarius... These people, Director, you still can't move, you need to stay to guard the [Twelve Ant Nest] to ensure that this thing is not in danger."
"I knew it..."
After mumbling in dissatisfaction, the slightly unhappy red-haired director switched his legs.
With her carefree movements, the white nightgown and two even whiter thighs overlapped each other. Under the soft light on the table, it was even more beautiful than the morning glow in the sky, attracting Lyon's eyes to chase after it unconsciously.
"Does it look good?"
After looking at Leon who was distracted for a moment, the red-haired director couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, then stretched out his index finger to dip some of the spilled wine, gently scratched his soft thigh, leaving a wine-red water mark full of charm, and then smiled and suggested:
"Let's make a deal? If you guard the house for me, I can let you touch it~"
"..."
