Chapter 164 The Rat Lingers On
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the temporary residence, and at the same time, Qiao Ni's voice came:
"Undine, Eros, are you in the house?"
Have they come out of the realm of sin? Eros glanced at Undine in front of him, coughed dryly and said:
"I'll open the door for them!"
Undine did not speak, but obediently stood up and moved her position.
Eros walked outside and opened the door, and found that a group of people had gathered outside the door of his temporary residence.
At a rough glance, there were probably dozens of them, and they were all people who had had in-depth exchanges with him.
ah? Why are you here? Eros' face was a little stiff.
Undine inside the house apparently also noticed something unusual at the door, so she walked to the door and looked outside, and then the look on her face became a little confused.
Fortunately, Claire noticed that the atmosphere was abnormal, and immediately coughed and proactively said:
"We are here to thank Eros. Without him to lure away most of the evil spirits, I am afraid most of us would not be able to survive."
Eros breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, and said quickly:
"You're welcome. We are all classmates, so I should do this."
After listening to this conversation, Undine's face showed a hint of surprise. It turned out that they were here to thank Eros.
After hearing this, Claire smiled, winked at Eros and said:
"Now that we know you are not injured, we are relieved. Okay, we won't disturb your rest."
"If there is a chance next time, we will thank you properly."
After finishing speaking, Claire and Anne took most of the people back to their temporary residences.
At this moment, the only ones left were Joni, Xifreya, Ayesha and Doreen.
Eros gave up his seat and motioned for the girls to come in and sit down.
After seeing all the girls sitting down on the sofa, Eros asked:
"Is there any statistics on the number of people who survived this time?"
Hearing this, Qiao Ni's expression dimmed, and she sighed softly and said:
"Only 763 people survived, and most of them were children of nobles."
Eros was not surprised by this result. The survival rate of children of noble families was definitely higher than that of children from ordinary families.
Because children from noble families can prepare various equipment or sealed items for their children.
But children from ordinary families cannot have these, and high mortality is inevitable.
However, out of an assessment team of nearly 10,000 people, only more than 700 people died in the end. This still makes people feel the cruelty of the mysterious world.
After a few seconds of silence, Eros changed the subject and said, "Did the person in charge of the academy say when we will return?"
After hearing this question, Qiongni responded softly:
"He said let us take a rest and drive back overnight after dinner."
There seems to be only an hour left before dinner. Are you in such a hurry?
He thought he would rest for the night before setting off tomorrow, but Eros didn't think much about it and nodded:
"It's better to return early and end it. I'm afraid many students will need a long time to adjust their bodies and minds after this experience."
After chatting for a few more words, Qiao Ni and others also left.
Just before dinner in the evening, the little boy who had invited Eros once before knocked on the door of Eros' temporary residence again.
Seeing that it was Eros who opened the door, the little boy said with a smile:
"Your Excellency Legasima would like to invite you to dinner!"
Eros's heart skipped a beat, and the first thought that flashed through his mind was, didn't he say that he only likes little ones?
But then Eros felt that he must have been overthinking it. It was impossible for a noble person to deceive others on such a trivial matter.
He invited himself to dinner, probably because he had something to say to him.
Thinking of this, Eros turned to say hello to Undine and followed the little boy out.
After arriving at the restaurant, Legesima, who was blindfolded in blue cloth, pointed to the seat opposite her dining table and said:
"sit!"
After Eros sat down, waiters walked in from the door on the other side carrying exquisite dishes, and soon the table was filled with all kinds of food.
Legxima grabbed a huge shelled food and stuffed it into her mouth without caring about the image.
Neither of them spoke, as if Legxima's call to him was really just an invitation to dinner.
After Legesima finished eating what he had on his hands, he casually wiped his hands on the tablecloth in front of him. Then he looked at Eros and said casually:
"Those students have memories of you using your own blood to lure away most of the evil spirits. I helped you make some modifications."
"Instead, you lured away most of the evil spirits, but instead of using blood, you used sealed objects."
"Although they don't know what that means, it is best to avoid such detailed problems as much as possible. After all, your identity as the Son of God is strictly confidential."
Eros was silent for a few seconds, and then he explained:
"At that time, this was the only way I could lure away those evil spirits, otherwise all of us would probably die."
Legesima smiled and said, "I'm not saying you did it wrong. On the contrary, what you did is to my liking."
"It is a very dangerous and crazy act for one person to lure away most of the evil spirits. It is far more dangerous than continuing to stay in the crowd. If you are not careful, you will be eaten by those evil spirits."
"But you still did it, and this is indeed the only way to save most people, which fits my stereotype of the elves."
At this point, the smile on Regsima's face faded, and his tone became extremely serious:
"But! As the son of God of the Reincarnation Church, in the eyes of the church, your importance is far greater than all of them."
"So I hope that next time you encounter this situation, try to save yourself as much as possible. After all, every son of God has special significance to the church."
Eros did not speak, but just listened quietly. Seeing Eros's attitude, Regsima sighed:
"Forget it! I think you won't listen to me. After all, the elves in the records are all like saints."
"If you really change yourself, you may lose the favor of that person, which is not worth the loss."
"It's just that you should have told me this when we met before, instead of waiting until the church people went down to investigate to find out that you, the son of God, used your high-ranking bloodline as a guide to lead away those evil spirits."
"They are weak and may not know the difference between the elves' bloodlines."
"But if the church neglects and you don't report this matter, they might tell it outside, and it might be heard by that person with ulterior motives."
"Then your existence will be completely exposed, and you will be greeted with endless dirty tricks, unless you hide in the church for your whole life, or you become a noble person yourself."
"There are many rats lingering on the Croatian continent, and your blood is undoubtedly the best life-extending potion."
"A dying person is never afraid to take risks!"
