Chapter 1036 An Old Friend Has Arrived

The early morning light shines through the huge glass windows into the clean and tidy airport hall.

The little girl in simple clothes held her mother's hand and walked among the crowd, curiously looking at the pedestrians walking around.

"Is this Mott City?"

The little girl raised her head, looked at the signs around the airport, and asked softly.

"Well, this is the capital of the Ika Republic, Mote City,"

The mother next to her smiled and glanced at the girl, "This is one of the largest cities in the West."

"Let's go to the hotel now and get accommodation before going out to play."

The father who was dragging his suitcase looked at the little girl and smiled.

"Uh-huh."

The little girl nodded obediently, and then looked at the huge floor-to-ceiling glass in the distance.

Outside the glass, there is a stretch of buildings.

She stood on tiptoe, trying to see further, but it seemed to be of no use.

After shaking her head and looking for a while, she looked up and saw her mother holding her hand, "Mom, you can't see the sea here, the sea is covered by the buildings."

"Mote City is different from Newland. Mote City is an inland city,"

The mother glanced at her daughter and said with a smile, "This is without the sea."

"No sea?"

The little girl blinked, "Is this all an island?"

"You can understand it as,"

The father on the side thought for a moment and said slowly, "Mote City is on a very, very large island. It takes a long, long time to drive from one end of the island to the other, but Mote City is far away from the coast of the island. , so the sea cannot be seen with the naked eye.”

"Oh~"

The little girl nodded in understanding.

However, she didn't dwell on it for too long. Instead, she looked around excitedly, full of curiosity about new things.

The three of them quickly crossed the exit and walked out. Behind them, a strong young man carrying a huge black travel bag and dragging his suitcase was also walking through the crowd towards the exit.

At this moment, the exit was already filled with people coming to pick up the plane.

The young man glanced around, and soon found a man in a black suit at the door holding up three Chinese characters that read 'Institute'.

He quickly walked up to the man in the black suit and asked tentatively, "Hello?"

"fighter?"

The man in black suit lowered his head, glanced at the young man, and asked quickly.

"Yes,"

The sturdy young man nodded, and then he asked hesitantly, "Do I need to verify my identity?"

"Need not,"

The man shook his head, "We have all seen your photos."

He turned around and said quickly, "The car is parked in the three-dimensional parking lot. Let's go there now."

"Okay, okay."

The young man nodded quickly and followed the pace of the man in the black suit.

At this time, the man in the black suit also took a look at the huge travel bag the young man was carrying and the suitcase in his hand, and pointed to the place where the trolley was placed next to him, "There is a luggage trolley over there. I need to get one." ?"

"Need not,"

The young man waved his hands quickly and said with a smile, "I am a combat-type transcendent. This thing is nothing, and it can help me with weight-bearing training."

"Okay, let me help you get the suitcase."

The man in the black suit nodded. He reached out and took the suitcase from the young man. He stopped talking and continued to lead the way.

"Um, where are we going now?"

The two took a few steps forward, and the young man asked softly.

"Go to the hotel first. We have booked a room for you. You can also use it as a staff dormitory because we have booked the entire hotel. Recently, members from China have been staying there one after another."

He glanced at the young man and continued, "Of course, if you want to rent a house by yourself, that's fine. The rent subsidy will be credited to your card."

"Okay, okay."

The young man nodded.

He didn't seem to get the answer he wanted, and he hesitated to speak.

The man in the black suit glanced at him and asked casually, "Is there anything else you need to know?"

"Who is in charge of this now?"

The young man hesitated for a moment and asked slowly, "So is this the place of the research institute or the place of World Tree now?"

"Who is really in charge of this now?"

The man in the black suit was stunned for a moment, and then explained slowly, "He Bu is now the special advisor of World Tree and is responsible for the internal reform of World Tree. Our status is that the research institute has specially provided support to support He Bu's work."

He thought for a moment and said slowly, "Our identity is still that of a research institute, but we are currently working at World Tree."

"Dispatch workers?"

The young man thought.

"That's okay if you want to understand."

The man in the black suit laughed dumbly, "But our status is not lower than that of the staff of World Tree. Even because of our relationship with the Ministry, our power may be greater."

Then he glanced at the young man, a little confused, "You didn't even understand this, and you came here?"

"I just received the news that... someone was sent here to ask me if I would like to officially join the institute and work here,"

The young man hesitated for a moment and said slowly, "As soon as I agreed, they put me on the plane and sent me here."

"You weren't even a formal researcher at the institute?"

The man in the black suit was slightly startled, "You just officially joined the institute and you were sent here?"

"Um,"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The young man was a little confused, but still nodded, "I used to be a specially appointed researcher."

"I asked you why there is only a code name and no name on your information,"

The man in the black suit shook his head and sighed, "I'm afraid they sent you here before they even had time to synchronize your details to the institute's intranet."

Then he glanced at the young man doubtfully, "Speaking of which, you are not on the same flight as the army. Are you related to a certain big shot?"

"ah?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head, "I don't know the big shots here."

"That's right. If you really know the boss, you can't still be a specially appointed researcher."

The man in the black suit also shook his head. He looked at the young man and patted the young man's shoulder gently, "Young man, do your best. There are clear rewards and punishments. Although this is a little far from home and may be a little more dangerous, there is a lot of hope. future."

"Um,"

The young man nodded heavily, then he looked at the man in the black suit and said curiously, "Is that He Bu really as powerful as the legend says?"

"No, no, no, it's different,"

The man in the black suit smiled and waved his hand, "He is much more powerful than the legend says,"

He thought for a moment and scratched his head, "How can I describe it? It's the kind of feeling that as long as you see him, you will feel that there is no problem in the world that he can't solve."

"Is that so?"

The young man nodded thoughtfully.

"Who are you a fan of? Who are you here for?"

The man in the black suit turned his head, looked at the young man, and said with a smile, "Many of the people who come here are He Bu fans, but most of them are young girls."

"No, not exactly,"

The young man thought for a moment and hesitated, "I have also heard many legendary stories about He Bu, but I came here because of another person..."

"Other than this, who else can attract people from China to travel thousands of kilometers to a foreign land?"

The man in black suit looked at the young man in confusion, "Is it a little girl?"

"No, it's not,"

The young man shook his head, "He is one, he can be regarded as my teacher. Although he is not willing to accept me, he is also a specially appointed researcher. I don't know if he has been made official. The institute said that he is also here and asked me if I would like to Come here, I will come here.”

"So you kid ran this far,"

The man in black suit was slightly startled, "Are you here to study?"

Then he reached out and patted the young man on the shoulder and said with a smile, "You have a lot of potential! You will definitely become something big in the future!"

"I'm not very talented,"

The young man waved his hand quickly, "That gentleman didn't want to take me in. Strictly speaking, he just gave me some pointers out of interest. I came here mainly to see if there was a chance to follow him and become a registered disciple or something." of."

"Anyway,"

The man in the black suit scratched his head and said, "At your age, you are really brave to travel so far to study."

He smiled and said, "That 'teacher' of yours sounds like he's not an ordinary person, and there aren't many Chinese people here. What's his name? Maybe I know him?"

"I only know that his code name is 'Mercenary'."

The young man said slowly.

"no impression,"

The man in the black suit raised his gaze, recalled it carefully, and then shook his head, "Perhaps if you have a chance to meet He Bu, you can ask He Bu?"

"Is He Bu easy to see?"

The young man was stunned again, "A big shot like him..."

"He is very friendly."

The man in the black suit smiled and shook his head, "You'll know it when you see him. He clocks in and clocks in on time every day when there's nothing wrong. But if he's doing errands outside, you won't see him in the office building."

"Um."

The young man nodded slightly, and then he smiled, "I feel that the real He Bu is a little different from the He Bu I read in those legendary stories. I thought that such a genius who became famous at a young age would have a somewhat weird temper."

"This proves that you don't know enough about He Department. If He Department is like you said,"

The man in the black suit shook his head and sighed, "There wouldn't be so many people willing to travel this far to follow him."

"really."

The young man nodded in agreement.

"There's a parking lot in front of us, we're almost there."

The man in the black suit looked up and said quickly.

Two figures slowly walked into the parking lot.

Not far behind them, in the corner of the wide hall, a man in casual clothes sitting on a waiting chair raised his head and glanced at the backs of the two of them.

Then he picked up the thick stack of leaflets in his hand and walked to the entrance and exit on the other side of the hall.

Start handing out the leaflets in your hands to pedestrians one by one.

"Mom, look at that!"

Not far from the entrance, a little girl holding her mother's hand raised her head, glanced at the man in casual clothes, shouted excitedly, and then quickly ran towards this side.

"Okay, okay, girl, slow down."

The mother was somewhat confused and was pulled by the little girl and ran to this entrance.

The man in casual clothes handing out the flyers glanced at the little girl, handed one of the flyers in his hand to the girl, and said with a smile in Ika, "Listen to the great voice and learn about it."

The little girl obviously didn't understand what he said, but she still reached out and took the flyer.

The mother smiled awkwardly at the man in casual clothes, and then looked at her daughter beside her.

At this time, the little girl had already held up the flyer and showed the 'K' character on the flyer that took up almost half of the page in front of her mother, "Mom, there is a K in this too."

Mother lowered her head and read the words on the flyer.

It seems to have been specially prepared for the airport, with words written on it in three languages: Ika, Tia, and Chinese.

The content of these words is very simple, describing a 'lecture' that will be held. The theme of the lecture is listening to the voice of the great 'K'.

Then there is a QR code at the bottom of the flyer, prompting you to use chat software to scan the code to join the private group chat and notify the specific time and location.

But the little girl most likely didn’t know these words. She probably ran over after seeing the big ‘K’ symbol.

"Well, it seems that there are also people who believe in 'K'."

The mother lowered her head, looked at her daughter, and smiled.

"Then can we also sell K's straw amulets here?"

The little girl blinked.

"You two..."

At this time, the man in casual clothes on the side seemed to understand the language of the two people. He pointed at the QR code and said slowly in broken Tia Empire language, "You can...scan the code... communicate... ··”

"That guy over there, stop!"

Just as he was speaking, a loud shout came from not far away.

The man in casual clothes was startled when he heard the voice. Then without any hesitation, he hugged the flyer and rushed out of the entrance and ran towards the distance.

Immediately afterwards, a man in a military police uniform rushed to the door. He glanced at the mother and daughter who were standing at the door, holding leaflets, and explained, "It is not allowed to distribute leaflets."

Then he looked at the confused eyes of the two people and their faces that had the characteristics of the Tia Empire, and realized that these were two foreign tourists who could not understand what he was saying.

So he could only smile and nodded awkwardly at the two of them, rushed out of the entrance with the rubber roller, and rushed towards the place where the man in casual clothes left, "Stop, don't run!"

Seeing this scene, the little girl blinked, looked at her mother, and took out a few straw talismans from her pocket, "Then can we still sell talismans here?"

The woman lowered her head, looked at her daughter, squatted down gently, hugged her, and smiled, "It's okay, we don't need to sell amulets. We are here to travel. Traveling is just for fun. There is no need to sell things to make money."

"oh."

The little girl nodded.

She thought for a moment and stuffed a straw talisman from her pocket into her mother's pocket, "Then, K will protect us."

"Um."

The woman smiled and nodded.

Mote City World Tree Headquarters Building

Sunlight shines from the floor-to-ceiling windows and shines on the solid wood desk.

He Ao lowered his head and stared at the paper in front of him.

Countless twisted and twisted lines are laid flat on this paper. Just looking at these lines will make people feel dizzy and vaguely hear some vague whispers.

These lines were copied by He Ao from the star in the middle of the Wheel of Stars.

In the field of vision of the Eye of Truth, these lines show obvious structure. They seem to be made by the forces that built the Wheel of Stars, trying to seal the power of 'truth'.

However, it seems that the structure of these magic circles is not complete, and there are still some things missing.

I'll have to take a closer look later.

He Ao picked up the paper on the table, lit it with a lighter, and put it into the iron basin in the corner next to the chair.

This thing has no impact on him, but it is a source of pollution to others.

It wasn't until the paper was completely burned and blended with the ashes of the iron basin that He Ao raised his eyes, casually pulled out a new blank paper from the drawer, and picked up the pen beside him.

Boom-boom-boom-

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

He Ao put down his pen and said casually.
