For them, I believe in superior firepower

Chapter 16 Broken Lips, Tired Eyes

"So, where have you been in the past three years? Why did you even change your path after you came back?" Oliveira moved her body slightly to make herself more comfortable, leaning on Xia En's chest.

"Hiss..." Xia En wanted to say something, but he took a deep breath first.

The reason is simple, his lip is broken.

As for who the culprit is... needless to say.

Anyway, he was very thankful that the murderer didn't drain him... Ahem, let's not mention this for now.

"Speak, Sean." Oliveira tapped his chest lightly with her finger, "You don't want me to do something again, do you? Now, I don't have any scruples~ "

"No, how could it be." Xia En almost coughed out, "For the past three years... I have been cultivating in the secret realm, and the loss of psionic energy... is the price of cultivating."

"Is that so?" The girl suddenly reached out and pinched the soft flesh around his waist, "Just because of one failure, you will have to cultivate for three years, and you will not hesitate to lose your spiritual power!"

When she spoke, she somewhat gritted her teeth, "You just have the heart to leave me behind for three years like this!"

"Ahem..." Xia En resisted the pain in his waist and tried to explain, "How should I put it, Ollie, at that time... I really felt that I was useless."

Sighing, he continued, "I want you to protect me during the battle, and you don't listen to me when I speak normally..."

Oliveira's beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but rise slightly.

"So, I want to change to a way that can fight a little bit." Xia En glanced at her, ignoring her, "In this way, at least when fighting, I won't become a drag."

"No one thinks you're a drag..." The girl looked like she wanted to bite him, "At least I never felt that way!"

"But I don't think this will work... You can't call, and no one will listen to your words. It's a failure." Xia En smiled, "And, Ollie, why don't you seem surprised at all by my changing channels?"

"Who knows what will happen to the secret training!" Oliveira bit Xia En's neck angrily, "I only care about you coming back now!"

"Still the same, don't care about the main point." Xia En caressed her soft blond hair and sighed.

"Okay, then I won't do the same thing~" Oliveira narrowed his eyes, "It was too easy to let you go before, so it shouldn't be so easy to let you go now, right?"

"Wait, Ollie..." Seeing that the situation was not going well, Xia En wanted to jump off the bed.

But his movements were restrained by the girl, and his voice was muffled into the throat again.

It can only be said that sluts are worthy of being sluts, and their focus is completely different from that of ordinary people.

……

When Meric saw the saint again, she was taking Shane in the workshop of the monastery.

Her expression was quite calm, and she didn't seem to be panicked at all about the possibility of Wang's coming.

Not only that, Xia En, who used to avoid and fear her a lot, is now following behind her, with no vigilance or vigilance in his expression.

Lady Saint... Has Xia En been subdued?

Meric was a little puzzled, and noticed that there were some cuts on Xia En's lips, and there was a little... tiredness in his eyes?
But for this, Meric only felt that Xia En had spent too much in the previous battle and hadn't fully recovered.

"My lord, the craftsman has been brought here." Merici bowed slightly and greeted respectfully.

"Well, thank you for your hard work." The saint nodded slightly, took out the ice edge of the direwolf and the body of the black crystal cat from the storage bag, and placed them on the iron table quite casually.

Then, she looked at Xia En, "Xia En, what do you want these things to be processed into?"

"Well... for the ice edge, it needs to be polished into a hexagonal prism, and the scales of the black crystal cat need to be burned with fire, and then hammered into powder." Xia En flashed the method of modifying the rifle in his mind, and said simply.

"This..." The craftsman who came with Meric had a look of perplexity on his face when he heard this, "My lord saint, when do you need these things?"

"The sooner the better." The saint replied without hesitation.

"This... But these are not easy tasks. It will take at least three or four days to complete, or even a week." The craftsman's face turned bitter.

"... Xia En?" The saint looked at Xia En again.

"Uncle craftsman, why don't you try it first?" Xia En looked at the craftsman sincerely, "This is a request from the saintess, not an order, so don't worry too much."

After hearing this, the craftsman's expression softened significantly.

He stroked his beard and nodded, "Then let me see the situation first."

While talking, he took tools from the side, "It might be a little noisy in the room, why don't you wait outside for a while?"

"Yeah." The saint nodded.

The three of them walked out of the room, but Meric couldn't help talking to Xia En, "Xia En, your pistol skills are really good, you killed that black crystal cat with just three shots!"

"It's all Knight Meric, you cooperated well." Shane smiled, "If you didn't block the black crystal cat for me, and help me slow down its movements, I wouldn't be able to shoot so accurately."

"Haha, Xia En, you are being humble." Meric smiled. "From now on, we will all serve the Holy Maiden, so we should know each other better!"

"Uh..." Hearing this, Xia En couldn't help but glanced at the saint next to him.

"Melich, there is something that I would like to ask for your opinion." The saint paused for a moment, and said to Merici in a solemn tone.

"Yes!" Meric immediately stood upright with a serious expression.

"If... I mean, if I need you to leave me and go to a faraway place to perform a mission, would you accept it?" The saint's sky blue eyes looked at Meric, earnestly, but slightly disappointed.

With the change of the capital, Xia En's situation has become more and more dangerous, and sending him away has almost become an inevitable choice.

But the environment in the northern border is dangerous, and there are strange beasts like direwolves. Although Xia En can kill the black crystal cat with three shots now, as long as there are more enemies in close combat, he will still be difficult to deal with.

The saint needs to stay to clean up the situation, and cannot personally escort her, but if she wants to send Xia En away safely... Among the people around her, only Merici is trustworthy and capable enough to do it.

Meric always felt a little strange when he heard the words of the saint.

But just as he was about to say something, he heard the sound of the door being opened.

The craftsman came out with a smile on his face, "My lord, this black crystal cat... seems to have something wrong."

"Is something wrong?" The brows under the mask of the saint frowned slightly.

"Yes, there seems to be something strange in its body." The craftsman hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded.
