Chapter 334 Unexpected Visitors
The person who walked in from the door was wearing a long brown suit, a loose windbreaker draped over his shoulders, a pair of pointed leather shoes at his feet, and a pair of leather gloves on his hands. He had a little hair on both sides of his thin cheeks.
With a clean shaven beard, Gen felt that a man of his status would not go out without grooming it, so he probably kept it on purposely.
As soon as he entered the door, Dugan did not look at Genn. Instead, he glanced around the room seemingly casually. His eyes were extremely sharp. Genn really knew what he was thinking. A smart person could guess the room just by looking at its layout.
The owner's character, even if Genn only lived here for one day, there are still many things that can reveal information about him.
His regular clothes were all neatly folded on the shelf next to the suitcase. Only the cloak of the Light Master was hanging at the door. There were no slippers in the room. As long as Guen was awake, he always wore running shoes, a pass, an academy badge and some combat equipment.
All his things are neatly stacked on the table, which shows that he is a crisis-conscious person, always in a state of preparedness, and very insecure. The valve of the water heater is not open, and now that it is winter, he is still washing
Cold water means that he is very strict with himself and does not pay much attention to the enjoyment of life.
There was no tray left after the meal was delivered in the house, and he insisted on going out to eat even when he was very tired, which showed that he didn't like others to peek into his life. It might be a personal habit, or it might be that he has been hiding some secrets...
Of course, besides these trivial things, Dugan also saw some important things.
Gen's room was neatly tidied, and he even had to rearrange the items assigned to him by the association, but there happened to be a roll of unpacked clothes next to the chair he was sitting on... There were also clearly visible mud prints at his door.
The color is white...it is kaolin. There is no such soil near Shigoluol City. He secretly left the city without declaring it.
All this was running in Dugan's mind for only two seconds. Coupled with the information collected previously, Genn had already seen it clearly.
"It's Mr. Dugan. I didn't know you were here, so I'm sorry." Genn stood up and made a light-reading ceremony.
Of course he doesn't like this guy, and it's no secret that the relationship between the two families is bad, but basic etiquette is still necessary, and Genn can't express anything on the surface.
"Hahaha, it's okay. I came here uninvited. I was worried about disturbing your rest, so I didn't let them notify you." Dugan raised his lips and gave a standard fake smile.
"Who are you here for?" Genn didn't understand what was going on. He and Dugan had met once in the Starfall Land, but the other party probably wouldn't remember him.
Genn is just a fledgling trainee light reader now. Even if he performs well, an arrogant high-ranking person like Dugan will not pay attention to him. After all, Dugan himself is a well-known bloodline theory and was born as a commoner in Dragon Academy.
It is difficult for a light-reader to get a promotion channel. If it were not for the pressure from public opinion and other families, the Lauren family would not even accept a light-reader with impure blood. The Lauren family that Gunn met in the blood incident
The traitors left for this reason.
"I heard about the attack last night. I really didn't expect it... It's really sad that the Lion's Association can make such a low-level mistake. If this continues, the face of the Light Nianshi will really be lost.
It's gone, but luckily you're fine." Dugan's tone was half-smiling, and Genn didn't know what he wanted to say.
"Actually, it's excusable. After all, such a large-scale exposure just happened. The association is at a time when its defensive strength is weak, and it can easily be taken advantage of." Genn helped to smooth things over.
"Fortunately, you're fine." Dugan repeated it again, but this time he changed the subject, "But why are you fine? You don't seem to be injured at all. You are obviously an assassin who has the ability to infiltrate the association."
"Because of this." Gen summoned a bone blade to stab his chest. Red Dusk immediately unfolded from the form of a wrist guard, blocking Gen's own knife. "I got this cloak by chance. It protects me."
I have gone through several difficulties. The assassin's information is not sufficient. I never thought that a novice light reader would have such a thing."
"Well, that's it." There was a hint of disappointment in Dugan's eyes, and Gen's explanation did make sense. "Very good, a rising star, a malleable talent. I can already see what you will look like in the future."
Dugan praised Gene for no reason, but the latter was not happy at all.
"Thank you for your concern. I have nothing to do. You must be busy, right?" Genn said.
"Ah, I'm quite busy. I bargained with your leader for a long time some time ago. It's hard to talk to such an ancient person. What do you think?"
"The principal is a very gentle person and a light reader with firm beliefs." Genn simply replied, "Do you have anything else to ask?"
"There are a lot of questions to ask. For example, where did you go after you disappeared in the Starfall Land? Your whereabouts during this period are very suspicious." Dugan looked at Gen's elbow, where there used to be a Starfire Army
After leaving, Gen used a knife and fire to remove the mark without saying a word. After repairing it with the Golden Gate, it looked completely normal.
"I'm sorry, I work for the Esbern family now. I can't report internal intelligence without the permission of my superiors." Genn didn't dare to say anything. It would be easy for him to see through the elaborate lies of people like Dugan.
The best way is to say nothing.
"Then ask something else. After I learned about the invasion yesterday, I checked your information. There are videos of you on several missions. Your abilities are very unique, and I don't know why it looks familiar.
.”
Dugan obviously had other intentions, and Gen began to worry about Ying Nian. The other party wanted to blackmail him. Although he didn't know what the purpose was, it was definitely not a good thing.
"The light thoughts in the world are ever-changing. I don't think there is anything special about my abilities. As long as I can uphold justice and defend peace, all abilities are the same." Genn said the cliche, but he was actually very nervous.
"Oh, it seems that you have been well educated in Visela. You don't need to be so nervous. You just came to say hello to the young people with potential. I have something else to do, so there is no need to send it away." Dugan put on his hat and turned around.
He walked towards the door, but when he passed by Gen, he deliberately stretched out his hand and knocked the roll of clothes next to him to the ground.
"Ah!" Genn panicked and reached out to pick it up, but Dugan's hand was faster and directly held down Genn's wrist.
"I'll pick it up for you."
Dugan smiled sinisterly and slowly turned his head, with a triumphant expression on his face. However, when he saw the thing on the ground, his expression froze.
A thick book of impurities was revealed inside the clothes that were spread apart. There was also a sexy actress with a hot body and bulging back on the cover. Genn covered his forehead and looked extremely embarrassed. He didn't know what to say.
.
"..." The smile on Dugan's face suddenly disappeared, and then changed back to an emotionless fake smile, "Oh, young man, it's okay, I also like Pollyanna very much, she is indeed a beauty in the world."
Dugan yelled and walked out of the door with a chilling murderous aura. Genn remained motionless for a few minutes. Only after he was sure that the other party would not come back did he pick up the things on the ground.
The pages with impurities dissolved layer by layer and turned into a thick black liquid, revealing a small bottle wrapped in the innermost part. Genn finally let out a sigh of relief.
Although I don’t know if Dugan knows about the Ether Gods, it’s better not to show this kind of thing. With Dugan’s level, he can also understand things that Gen can understand, and it might lead to disaster.
...This time it was really thrilling.
Fortunately, the moment the other party entered the door, Genn wrapped the bottle with a black water ball. Originally, he wanted to block the unique wave of thoughts emanating from the glass bottle. Later, when he saw Dugan knocking down his clothes with his hand, Genn suddenly thought of it and let the black water ball go.
He transformed quickly and barely managed to get through.
"That guy is really terrifying..." Genn still felt his heart beating very fast, as if it was hitting his ribs violently. Dugan's whole body exuded an extremely cold aura, which he had felt the last time he was in Starfall Land.
It's not obvious, this feeling will only become so strong when you and him are in the same space.
You can feel that the other person is constantly looking at you like they are staring at prey, thinking about all the clues about you, as if they want to peel off your skin and look directly at the blood vessels and beating heart inside.
What did he want to do? When Dugan mentioned Ying Nian, Genn's heart did skip a beat, but he didn't delve into it. He didn't know if it was a test or a threat. Maybe he didn't have conclusive evidence, but Genn knew he was sure.
What he had done aroused suspicion, and the relationship between the two families has now reached a point of tension... If one of the people who can capture Esberen is an undercover agent from the Starfire Army or Shadow Crow, this is a good card.
Of course, Genn didn't want to be manipulated as a pawn, so he could only be more careful. Not only were there enemies in the dark, but there were also murderous intentions in the open...
After being stabbed by Dugan, Genn no longer dared to play with these dangerous things. He hid the glass bottle in a secret compartment of the suitcase, put it together with the branches of Gaia, wrapped the black water around it, and turned it into a
As part of the box, the stuffing will basically not be exposed.
The mind beast flying bird that was sent to deliver supplies to Polk also returned the same way. It is only the size of two palms and can surpass the city's protective barrier without arousing suspicion. From a distance, it is no different from an ordinary bird.
I'm afraid he'll have to starve a few times when he comes down. Genn is too busy to take care of himself now and can't take care of him.
