I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 248 247. Do you have a tacit understanding?

After Inisha offered her price, she carefully observed Lloyd's reaction.

Seeing that he was stunned for a few seconds and did not respond directly, as if he was shocked by his generous remuneration and sincere attitude. Maybe he was already imagining a series of charming and ambiguous plots in his mind?

Hee hee, he is such a cute and innocent boy. As expected, this style is the most suitable to me...

Inisa couldn't help but lick her lips, feeling that she was already a sure winner, and Lloyd would definitely not be able to escape from her grasp.

I couldn't help but laugh at Olga twice in my heart, laughing at how he would keep his promise at this time, and still maintain the arrogance of a playboy, without knowing how to secretly increase the price. He is indeed a stubborn person who only knows how to rely on his family.

In this important link involving the eighth [Transcendence], who would abide by that verbal agreement?

Inisa was so happy that she couldn't help but hum a tune secretly, thinking about what kind of tricks she should play with her little cutie in the future.

She saw that Lloyd was still in a daze, so she seized the opportunity and stretched out her fingers to lift Lloyd's chin and make him look directly into her eyes.

As a result, an invisible force suddenly appeared in the air and slapped her hand away unceremoniously.

Huh? Is this the power of [projection]?

As a high-ranking expert in the [Embodiment] system, it is not difficult for Inisha to distinguish the power attribute of [Projection] even if she does not involve another route.

Has my little cutie already gotten involved in the [Embodiment] system? Isn't this right? Isn't he only at the second level?

Wait... This power doesn't seem to come from him, but more like it comes from some mysterious and powerful existence?

There are no signs of other strong men in the vicinity, indicating that the distance between that existence and the current place must be very far.

An existence that can project power from such a long distance...

Saint?

The veto saint in the radiant city?

Inisha suddenly felt her scalp tingling.

Why is there a saint protecting this little guy?

He is obviously only the second level, right?

Even if he has a special physique that can resist mental pollution and is the best among the so-called "qualified people", he is still too young to deserve the saint's personal attention or even take action for him, right?

After all, although qualified geniuses with this kind of talent are rare, they are by no means an exception in the long history of mankind.

Could it be said that he has other qualities that can be valued by saints? Or is his talent worthy of being watched by saints?

Then it’s not surprising that he can stay awake in the [story].

However, it must be very painful for him to be watched like this by the saint and continue to bear such pressure, right? It's so pitiful when I think about it, I really want to hug him and comfort him...

Boss Inissa was thinking quickly in her mind, and then looked down at her hand. The back of her hand was already red, and there was some burning pain, indicating that the force of the previous blow was really not light.

Very rude attitude? But fortunately, it's not that Lloyd hates me, but that the saint behind him doesn't like my style...

Damn, this won't ruin my big deal, right?

I can only hope that the veto saint will not care about my little seventh-level offense.

Inisa suddenly felt regretful, wishing that she could have such a slap on her face, and she instantly put away her bad thoughts about Lloyd.

At this moment, Lloyd finally came to his senses.

He was in a daze before, but he was actually thinking about his words in his mind, how to reject the overly enthusiastic aunt in front of him.

Considering that the other party was a seventh-level strong man and an old friend of the housekeeper, he had to carefully consider his words, so he was stunned for a while.

As for the conditions offered by the other party, they were the same as the previous boss Olga. They were the same three fifth-level rewards, which was indeed very generous. The additional conditions sounded even more intimate than Olga's.

But Lloyd still chose to refuse without hesitation.

Because this person falsely called herself ‘sister’ in front of me...

Even if he is older, forget it, but this is the only thing that cannot be tolerated.

"Mrs. Inisa, I just..."

Lloyd was about to tell the excuse he had thought up before, but saw that the other party suddenly put away the frivolous smile on his face, became serious, then stood up, waved his hand again, and rushed to say:

"I was too abrupt just now, but I just saw that you were so cute, and I couldn't help but want to tease you... In short, I didn't mean that, um, yes...

As for the invitation just now, please think about it carefully. I will wait for your reply. "

She said in a panic, also left a business card and prepared to leave.

But when he was walking at the door, he gritted his teeth and turned around and said:

"That guy Olga is not trustworthy. He and his family have been secretly involved in some gray areas. If you don't want to be implicated, you'd better be cautious... Oh, by the way, I also heard that he seems to be more... Where do you like men from?”

After saying bad things about others, she opened the door and left.

Lloyd was dumbfounded and didn't know where to start.

Why do you high-ranking bosses all have such the same style of conduct?

They all spend money generously, and then speak ill of others behind their backs, without caring about the demeanor of a big boss... But considering that this matter involves the eighth [Transcendence], it seems not difficult to understand? Between the eighth level and Fengfeng, everyone would make a similar choice.

He was complaining in his mind when the butler's 'narration' came to his ears:

"Lloyd, have you finished talking to them? Don't agree to anyone in a hurry. Wait until they leave."

So Lloyd heard the sound of a steam car engine coming from outside, and three high-end steam cars came to the door of the hotel one after another.

Then Boss Olga took his nephew into the car and left. Before leaving, a burst of exclamations and curses could be heard:

"What? In the last story, the second-level rookie only took three seconds? How is this possible? Those girls are obviously so cute, does he like men?"

"Woman, woman, you incompetent prodigal son, you should die on a woman! Our family has been completely disgraced by you!"

Then Boss Inisa brought her face downstairs again, and you could still hear the discussion between them:

"Madam, are you kidding me? The speed of three seconds is obviously not in line with common sense. He is only at the second level?"

"Haha~ You idiot, you only know what is in the textbook, common sense? There are some people in this world who will not be bound by what you think is 'common sense'. You have been with me for so long, and you don't even know this..." Don’t you even know ‘common sense’? There’s really no progress at all!”

Uh... I was scolded so badly...

Lloyd listened, feeling somewhat sympathetic to the two opponents.

It seems that being a follower to a big boss is not an easy task. In this world, you still have to rely on yourself. Fortunately, I have always been a diligent and motivated young person...

After sighing in his heart, he saw the housekeeper come to his room, then casually sat down by the bed, and said very sincerely:

"Thank you, Lloyd, for helping me. You never disappoint me."

"You're too kind, it's nothing."

Lloyd waved his hand, smiled sheepishly, and continued:

"If you hadn't persuaded Miss Desda to give my sister a job, I wouldn't be where I am today. I will always remember the kindness you and Miss had."

"Then... will you help me protect the young lady?"

The housekeeper asked following the conversation.

"of course……"

As Lloyd said, he noticed something was wrong and asked:

"You don't look excited?"

"I'm already excited."

The housekeeper explained casually, took out a paper bag and a check from his waist, and handed them over.

"This is the reward promised to you before. [Rejection] is the core material for promotion to the fifth level - 'time to be remembered'; and this money was given to us by those two guys."

As he spoke, he briefly described to Lloyd the next plans of the two old friends, allowing Lloyd to understand why they were so generous.

Of course, the ugly quarrel between the two was omitted, which saved some face for the old friend.

But after hearing the cause and effect, Lloyd scratched his head and said with a little embarrassment:

"Uh... but the rewards they promised me are all three and five levels, right?"

He then gave an overview of the bids made by the two big guys just now, and added the link of 'talking bad things behind his back', and then specially explained:

"Of course, I don't mean to disdain your reward when I say this, and I am not helping you for these rewards."

"Huh? They actually gave so much? Isn't this different from what they agreed on?"

This time, the housekeeper was a little surprised, and then he lamented in a dumbfounded way:

"I really didn't expect that these two old friends of mine would be so cunning, so generous, and have such a tacit understanding. In order to help you gain as much benefit as possible, I deceived them, and I felt a little guilty. But I didn't expect...

As expected, the guys who focus on the [Story] route love to lie. Fortunately, you can also be considered the beneficiary of their 'tacit understanding'. "

Lloyd couldn't help laughing, and then asked casually:

"Is the eighth level really that important? Is it worth them giving up so many things in exchange for a favor?"

"If you change it to the agreed-upon price, it is actually the share I gave you. It's just that the two of them have stayed at the seventh level for too long. Their desire for the eighth level far exceeds mine. The pressure and pressure they have to bear are The responsibility is far heavier than mine."

Although the housekeeper also found it funny, he understood the actions of the two bosses better than Lloyd.
