Chapter 326 Hathaway, You Are Really an Old Driver

"Who is that! I have cramps in my feet!"

In the room where a man and a woman were alone, the girl with twin ponytails yelled loudly.

Finn, who looks honest and is just a standard mud leg, hurried forward to serve him.

The girl pushed him back: "Where are you touching your hands? Down there! Rubbing your feet! You're so disgusting at such an age that you want to take advantage of a little girl!"

"I just turned 20," Finn quickly argued, holding the girl's feet and rubbing them carefully.The smooth and tender touch made his breathing stagnate, and he took a foul breath before returning to normal.

Josie snorted, "You're so old at the age of 20? Could it be that you're from the Storm Islands?"

Of course not, Finn grew up from a guard in Viscount Prior's Castle Guard to Thorn Fortress.The selection criteria for the Castle Guard is "loyalty and honesty". This standard was refined by the captain Sardar as "younger than me, older than me, bolder than me, and eats less than me."

Finn, in his early twenties, already has wrinkles on his forehead and a beard on his lips.By the standards of ordinary people, no one doubts that he is 40 years old.Of course, he has reached the level of a hero, and this look will not change much in three or forty years.

"I really don't know what the Duke likes about you." Josie's cheeks flushed slightly, "It's because of your hands? They are so dexterous that they don't look like the hands of a warrior."

Her petite body trembled: "Hehe...haha...don't rub the soles of your feet!"

The wide and thick palms wrapped her little feet, and the strength of the rubbing was just right, and it was very warm, which made her very comfortable, but the calluses on the palms rubbed the delicate soles of the feet, making her itchy again.

Finn avoided the sensitive parts, and said honestly: "We not only practice swords, but also do many things. I like carpentry. My carpentry teacher is a paladin, and he can carve tree roots into vivid shapes in two or three strokes." Portrait, very powerful."

"Carpentry..."

Josie had her own understanding: "Aren't you the Duke's bodyguard? Why should you have the rank of a deacon in the church? Then you still have to be a handyman? Are you a bell bearer or a candle bearer? Little Simen, right?"

She flicked her feet in disgust: "Take your hands away! Maybe you have fed pigs with these hands, it's disgusting!"

Finn was not angry, put her feet into the quilt, and covered the quilt carefully.

In terms of rank and position, he is now the Chief of the Secret Service Section of the Security Department of the Cardinal Bureau of Fei Gong, which is equivalent to the deputy head of the Cardinal Knights in the church to protect important people.The level is teaching, which is equivalent to the cardinal priest of the church.

This doesn't make much sense. In Fei Gong, positions only represent responsibilities, and ranks only determine the chain of authority and responsibility and the order of the chain of command.

What makes sense is that he is not someone's slave, and carpentry is not labor, but a hobby.

Although this girl named Josie is a contract magician, she is still a slave in essence.Because of his low rank (fog), he felt disgusted to be touched by his hand, which made Finn have a deeper understanding of the "numbness" often preached at life meetings.

Finn deeply felt that "liberation" was indeed an extremely difficult mission, and he was extremely proud that he shouldered such a mission.

When leaving, Finn also had a distraction in his mind.

When he was young, because it was too cold, he warmed his sister's feet. At that time, he never felt that girls' feet would be so tender.

Recalling the feeling of sucking the venom before...

"stop!"

Before reaching the door, Josie said coldly: "You are not allowed to go! If I have cramps again, maybe you will be allowed to continue rubbing my feet."

Finn was stunned, it was clear that it was useless to use the thorns in his heart, but there was a tingling pain in his heart.

"Don't go, brother...don't go..."

His younger sister was lying in the grass in the wilderness coughing up blood, and he ran away crying bitterly, not daring to look back.

The family had no money to treat the younger sister's illness, and if she was kept at home, the whole family would get sick, so they had to leave her in the wild.Resignation to fate is nothing but self-consolation. It won't be long before the wild wolf will appear.

Like everyone else, the pain of his youth has long been covered up by dirt, and his mind is numb.

As the chief cardinal of the Viscount Prior, when he let the little saint, Fenny, swing a circle of spiritual thorns under the castle, it was the memory of this scene that awakened him.

Finn took a deep breath and sat on the chair beside the bed: "Okay, I'll accompany you."

This night was supposed to be on duty, and the chief cardinal and the saints were next door, so they could rush over if there was any movement.

"you……"

Josie didn't expect that Finn really came back, she turned her head to the side and muttered, "You left it behind yourself!"

Finn hummed, but said nothing.

After a long silence in the room, Josie suddenly said in a low voice, "Why...why did you save me? It's very dangerous."

Finn laughed and said, "Didn't Kramer save you too? I'm the protector of Bao...of course I will save you. But at that time, the detoxification technique had no effect, so I had to do that."

Josie didn't worry about the details any more, and her voice became lower: "Duke ordered you to protect me?"

"I don't need to order this, we are teammates if we fight together," Finn blurted out without hesitation.

Qiao Qian buried her head in the quilt, and she could vaguely hear the sound of sniffling. The voice came from under the quilt, looking muffled: "Thank you..."

Finn shook his head: "It's all teammates, no need to say thank you."

The quilt was lifted, and Josie glanced at him, then turned back, her voice was as soft as a mosquito: "I don't have a guard by my side, if I want you from the Duke, will the Duke let you go?"

Finn froze...

Josie said anxiously: "Although I am a contract magician, my income is still good! I will give you very good treatment! I will give you twice as much as you get from the Duke! No, three times!"

Finn got up, covered her with the quilt pamperingly, patted her on the head and said, "Sleep, have a good dream."

There was already a faint snoring sound from the next door, probably because the strength was suppressed too much before, Ellie felt very uncomfortable, and the snoring sound was much louder than usual.

"I will definitely invent a magical cure for snoring when I go back..."

Fei Ni, who was sleeping next to her, was woken up and got out of bed muttering to pee.

As soon as the door opened, Fenny was startled. She knelt and leaned against the door by herself, her head was biting and she was also snoring.

Fenny said angrily: "Sashina! What are you doing here? Do you still want to sneak attack at night?"

The sneak attack she was talking about was different from the previous attack.

"Ah, Fei, Your Highness Fei Ni?"

Sahina rubbed her eyes and said, "Of course I am guarding His Excellency the Duke."

"Still guarding at this time?"

Fei Ni yawned and said, "The price difference between personal entertainment tools and seven-time 24-hour real-time online bodyguards is very different. How much will your master pay you?"

Sahina was stunned for a moment, omitting the first half of the sentence that she couldn't understand at all, and replied, "It's not about money."

"But you don't have to work so hard, do you?"

Feeney shrugged, ignored her, and went to the bathroom by herself.

"Not because of an order..."

Sahina whispered: "I do it willingly, and I want to repay it."

Li Qi had a vague feeling that he didn't need to sleep for too long now, three or four hours a day was enough, and the rest of the time he closed his eyes and rested his mind.

When she opened her eyes, Tina woke up!

Tina and Insi slept on another bed, and she just sat up at night, covering her face and crying softly.

If it wasn't for him still maintaining his death talent, the telepathy between them would be stronger than before, and I'm afraid they would be shocked.

He sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "Tina, what happened?"

Tina hugged him suddenly, buried her head in his chest, her nose and tears were all covered up.

"I saw a monster! It's a rotten forest spirit, so scary!"

"Have I been scared to death already? Have we gone back to Epsilon? Woohoo...I want to go home..."

She yelled incoherently, but Li Qi was relieved that her sanity should be fine.

Rotten Forest Spirit...

This thing is a legend spread in the half-elf community. Like the curse monster in human society, it is an extremely terrifying existence. Half-elves like to use it to scare their children.

The Storm Islands have a regularized secondary mask, how could such a monster with spiritual power be allowed to exist?And it just corresponds to the most terrifying thing in Tina's subconscious mind. It seems that it is not really a rotten forest spirit, but an automatic trigger, which directly points to the safety mechanism of the heart.

"Let's see if you dare to spy on me in the future..."

Li Qi rubbed her pointed ears, and the half-elf girl gradually settled down.

The underground world should be a place like a nuclear waste landfill, so the protection was deliberately strengthened.

Of course, there is another possibility, for example... an ancient god was captured by a magician to provide energy for the secondary mask.

Li Qi pushed his wild brains aside, without the slightest evidence, it was completely meaningless guessing, and the underground city had nothing to do with what he planned to do for the time being.

Fei Ni entered the room: "Hey, did you wake up with pointed ears?"

Li Qi's ears trembled, and Tina raised her head and said angrily, "Little Douding, who's your name!?"

Yo, I'm refreshed!
Fenny pinched her neck and rolled her eyes: "Ah, I'm so scared!"

Tina sneered: "You forced me!"

She pointed to the corner and shouted, "Cockroaches!"

"what--!"

Fenny jumped onto the bed as if she had rockets on her legs: "Kill me! Drive away! Li Qi!"

This is more spiritual. Although I am not afraid of spiders, I add that fear to cockroaches.

Ellie on the bed was bounced up and down, she didn't wake up, but hummed irritably, the big sword in her hand suddenly appeared, hit the floor, and made a big hole with a bang.

Fortunately, all the residents below were invited away, otherwise the scene would be very embarrassing if a few pairs of eyes looked up.

Both Fei Ni and Tina were stunned, and Insi, who was sleeping next to Tina, was also awakened. She rubbed her eyes and was about to ask, when Li Qi patted her on the head: "It's just a daily routine."

Insi groaned, fell back to sleep, and Li Qi also returned to his sofa, ignoring them.

………………

"You made a lot of noise the day before yesterday..."

On the highest floor of the City of Silver, Tallinn, Li Qi and Hathaway stood on the floating board like crystal petals, slowly approaching the tower of the High Council in the center.

Hathaway's words were meaningful, and Li Qi's response was also full of meaning: "Aren't you satisfied?"

Early yesterday morning, he really took everyone to the morning market before returning to Mildern's mansion.In the afternoon, according to the itinerary, I attended the ceremony where the Milden family donated the space stone to the Supreme Academy of Magic.

The ceremony was very brief, but it was very rewarding to visit the Academy of Magic, and to have dinner with Dean Menesus with Pei Luo.

The Supreme Academy of Magic is a "public academy" run by the Mage Union, which trains magicians who serve the Supreme Council. Most of these magicians are responsible for taking care of the public facilities of the Storm Islands and managing the administrative affairs of the Storm Islands. They are equivalent to engineering colleges and cadres. School of Management.

This academy is a veritable top elite academy, which recruits once every ten years, with no more than a hundred students in each session.Although the status of magicians entering the Supreme Academy of Magic is not as high as that of magicians from big families, they are not objects that the latter can manipulate at will.Most of the students came from run-down families and small families, which allowed Li Qi to see another political force in the Storm Islands.

Of course, at present, this force, like the army composed of magic warriors, battle magicians, and magic puppets that only obeys the orders of the Supreme Council, is controlled by Menesus and Ted, who are eager to join the mainland.

Outside of the academy, the space stone donated by Peiluo also opened Li Qi's horizons.

Opening up a demiplane is a power only available to beings above demigods, but magic devices like space bags and space rings can open up spaces that are essentially fragments of a demiplane.These magic tools are all enchanted with space stone fragments and other materials, and the whole space stone can open up a large enough and stable independent space.

The kind of prison where Vicky is imprisoned should be supported by a space stone, but it may be processed into different styles of magic tools, or integrated with the environment.Such a space stone is naturally valuable, and Mildern donated one, and the Academy of Magic had to hold a ceremony.

The Dean Menesus whom he met at dinner was even more a person who made Li Qi secretly awe-inspiring.

This old man is the backer behind Hathaway, the ultimate promoter of the last Golden Family revolution.But this time, all kinds of movements aimed at him may eventually fall on this guy.

It is said that Menesus is already a ninth-level legend. When Peiluo saw him, he was very respectful, but Li Qi was very natural.After all, Xia An, who has become a demigod, hooks up with him... Bah!They were all chatting and laughing, such an aging legend couldn't make Li Qi feel too much pressure.

During the small talk at dinner, Li Qi even wanted to ask Menesus, do you have layers on your body?

Thinking that this might be a hole card, he suppressed his eagerness to act aggressively. The Storm Islands is a big stage, and there are plenty of opportunities, so don't be in a hurry.

Menesus didn't have an in-depth exchange with Li Qi yesterday, but just showed proper etiquette and friendliness to welcome distinguished guests.Li Qi felt that Menesus should still be observing him.Of course, he is also examining the old man, to see if he will sing a scene that exceeds the role set in his plan.

Today, the Storm Islands finally have an official response to Li Qi's observer status. The specific arrangement is to meet with the remaining members of the Supreme Council, and Hathaway will personally act as the receptionist.

Hathaway smiled and said: "I'm not very satisfied, Li Qi, you seem to be too cautious. If you compare the Storm Islands to a beauty, she doesn't take you seriously. Now only one-third of the councilors have opinions on you." Interest, all the magicians in the entire Storm Islands, including the legends who are buried in their own magic towers to do research, and even explore in the outer world, know the name Li Qi Prell better than the funny expert, the wandering paladin Noriedo."

He hoped that he would stir up storms in the Storm Islands and promote the reorganization of the Supreme Council to benefit the "Queen's faction". Of course, Li Qi understood Hathaway's intentions.

After Hathaway explained that the magicians who manage the barriers of Shadow City will strictly follow the system, suppress the abnormal and extraordinary power in Shadow City, and avoid huge damage to Shadow City, he also understands that Hathaway knows that he understands this, and the two established There was a further tacit understanding.

He sighed: "This is not easy to handle. Who knows what this beauty likes, you have to figure out the situation first. If you go on rashly and cross the limit that the beauty can tolerate, wouldn't it be counterproductive?"

Hathaway's eyes fluttered: "Li Qi, this should be said by the playboy brother, not you who are as delicate as a girl!"

She shook her head and said with a smile: "As long as that layer of film is there, no matter how intense it is, it is only a little bit more intense tenderness. Even if it leaves a little trace, it will dissipate quickly. How can a beauty care?"

Li Qi coughed violently: "Hathaway, I didn't expect you to be an old driver."

"Although I don't know what a driver is, it sounds like a compliment." Hathaway's black hair fluttered, and her silver pupils shone brightly.

She reached out and made an inviting gesture: "Please..."

The floating board stopped, and there was a long corridor in front of it, with tall statues standing on both sides.This is a place that must be walked to show respect for the great men represented by the statues on either side.

"Since the beauty invites you, I won't be polite." Li Qi got off the floating board and said leisurely, "When the time comes, I think I'm too rude, so don't call me painful or even stop me."

"I'm here to introduce you to these great men and the 3-year history condensed on them," Hathaway showed no sign of weakness: "In the face of such history, you will deeply realize your own insignificance."

"Size is relative. I am the Golden Cudgel, can you be Pansidong?"

Li Qi just muttered these words in his stomach, but didn't say them out.
