Princess, I am really a good person

Chapter 173 Unexpected Visitor

The screen turned into a screen of snowflakes.

Ivan turned off the projector and looked at Zhou Mingyi.

"This is a picture backed up at the command terminal. The team that was sent in at the beginning completely lost contact after that. We then sent out subsequent teams, but when we went in again, we did not find the altar again, nor did we find it. The bodies of any team members are found, and the spatial distortion disappears.”

"We can't yet deduce the source of the attack they received. After research, several experts from the Magicians Association believe it may be a creature from the spiritual world."

"No, that's not a spiritual creature," Zhou Mingyi said, "that's an ancient beast."

"What?" Everyone present was unfamiliar with this term.

"A very ancient creature that has been extinct for a long time. I didn't expect that the Ketu Cult could still bring it back."

Zhou Mingyi glanced at them and found that they still had doubts in their eyes, so he explained in detail: "A creature with space authority. It was used by the Ketu Cult to hide the sacrificial altar during the great flood. Now many people even No one knew of its existence because it appeared so rarely, and many history books didn’t record it. Even if they did, they regarded it as something else.”

"And it has an extremely huge size that can cover the entire island. It can be said that the entire island was eaten by him, and the internal and external spaces are isolated. Therefore, the island you see from the outside is not real. Yes, the real island has been swallowed by the Hades behemoth, and its existence will also cause the distortion of the surrounding space, so you will regard it as space distortion caused by energy fluctuations,"

Mu Yunfeng's eyes darkened when he heard this: "In other words, those action team members are..."

"Yes, it entered its body and was killed by the predatory organs in its body." Zhou Mingyi said.

"There is such a creature in the world," Ivan was surprised.

"What is more important now is another point, which is what is the purpose of Ketu teaching them sacrifices? They killed so many babies and even let the Hades beast come to suppress them. What they performed must be extremely evil rituals, but Futank Yis has lost contact with them for thousands of years and does not meet the requirements to perform rituals, so who is the target of their sacrifices?"

After these words, everyone present fell silent. The Ketu Cult is not an ordinary cult organization. They existed thousands of years ago. To be able to survive to this day, they must have their own unique methods. This is very important for their eradication. It will be quite difficult.

"So, the bodies of those team members can't be recovered now?" Ivan asked.

Zhou Mingyi shook his head: "Unless we find the ancient giant beast, the space eaten by it will be slowly digested. Even if we can find it, there will probably be nothing left."

He thought for a moment and said: "Judging from the layout of the altar, the level of this ceremony is high enough. It may directly connect to high-ranking beings, or it may be to please them. But judging from the results, it seems to have failed. The ceremony The executor, Ole, died on the altar, so."

"So they will continue to perform the ceremony?" Mu Yunfeng said.

"That's right." Zhou Mingyi nodded, "What we need to do now is to investigate the ancient ruins related to the ocean."

Ivan and the Tianshu commander looked at each other.

"If you encounter this kind of creature again, how should you deal with it?"

"It is unlikely that we will meet again, but just in case, if we encounter such a place with chaotic energy again, we will set up a teleportation anchor point in advance and escape immediately if there is any abnormality." Zhou Mingyi said.

When he left, Ivan sent him to the entrance of the yard.

"Mr. Zhou, I have heard rumors about you before, and I am very happy that we can have a prophet, although" he grinned:

"Many of us also have some doubts about your identity, but they are just doubts. We are all grateful that you can save our queen. Even if you are not the one in the legend, we still trust you."

Zhou Mingyi knew that the Supervisor Tiansi was still keeping his affairs a secret, so Osius had not yet confirmed his true identity.

"Then, thank you for your trust," Zhou Mingyi said to him.

Mingtang Office.

Zana closed the book and stretched.

"Finally finished." She rubbed her sore shoulders and packed the things on the table.

She has four main subjects, and now every day the teachers leave a lot of homework, especially the stern middle-aged female teacher named Qi Xiu, who teaches the theory of elemental magic. She wears thick-rimmed glasses and is a cat. As for humans, as long as someone strays during class, a water elemental magic bullet will be thrown directly at them.

She is very strict. Now she has the most homework every day, and it will take her a lot of time to complete it after she comes back.

Shana packed her things and wanted to go to the kitchen downstairs to get some snacks and start watching the show.

As soon as she went out, she suddenly realized that she was only wearing a pair of underwear, and now she and Zhou Mingyi were not the only ones at home, so she quickly went back and put on a pair of shorts.

After going down, I saw Irenia sitting in front of the microwave and tinkering.

"Miss Irenia." Zana greeted her.

"Zana, you came just in time, how do you use this thing? I want to heat up the milk." Irenia asked quickly when she saw Sana coming over.

Zana stepped forward, put the milk into the microwave, closed the door and set the heating program.

"Just wait two minutes," she said.

"Thank you, Zana, I really don't know anything about this kind of thing," Irenia said sheepishly.

"It's okay," Zana smiled at her, opened the cupboard and picked out snacks.

"Isn't Zhou Mingyi back yet?" Irenia asked while waiting in front of the microwave.

"Oh, Master, he sent me a message when school was over, saying that he had something serious to do." Zana said.

"Is that so?" Irenia seemed to have something in mind, hesitated for a moment, and then asked:

"Zana, I had a question before. Why do you keep asking him to call you master? Is that what he asked for?"

"No." Zana said, "It's because I was kidnapped from my hometown by the mercenary army to Mortan, and the master showed up at that time to save me."

Irenia opened her eyes slightly, she didn't know that this elf girl actually had such a life experience.

Shana continued with some embarrassment: "Actually, I was very afraid of him at the beginning. After the master rescued me, I didn't know what he was going to do to me. In order to protect myself, I wanted to please him, so I I keep calling him that, and then I get used to it, and the master is kind to me, so I can’t just call him by his name, so”

Irenia's eyes were a little downcast: "I'm sorry for reminding you of bad things."

"It's okay." Zana shook her head, "And that was the first time I met the master. I was already in despair at that time, but the master showed up to save me, and after that, he treated me like a friend. Meeting him is the luckiest thing in my life."

Zana showed her a pure and innocent smile, but facing this smile, Irenia felt a little painful in her heart.

The current warlord war in Mortan is just like a region. It is because of the two expansion wars caused by the Royal Court of Salerno. Otherwise, there would not have been so many mercenaries who ignored morality, and Zana would not have suffered that kind of thing.

There are many unfortunate people like her who have been caused by Mortan, but they will not meet Zhou Mingyi like her.

Although the royal court of Salerno had existed in name only for decades when she was born, she still had a lingering sense of guilt.

"Miss Irenia?" Zana called her.

"Ah?" Irenia quickly came back to her senses.

"The milk is ready." "Oh"

Irenia opened the microwave and took out the milk, but she retracted her hand because it was too hot.

Shana smiled helplessly, used insulated gloves to help her take it out, put it on the table, took out the quilt's rubber shell and put it on.

"That way you won't burn your hands."

Irenia whispered thank you, picked up the milk glass and took a sip.

"Zana, you are really suitable for marriage."

"Huh?" Zana was stunned and looked at her blankly.

"Ah, I mean, Zhou Mingyi is really lucky to have such a good girl like you. Well, I'm sorry if it's offensive," Irenia added quickly.

"My um." Zana blushed slightly and said with some trepidation, "I'm not that easy to be with the master. I still have a lot to learn."

Irenia looked at the rosy and delicate Zana who could squeeze water out of her mouth, and truly felt that having a girl like her in Zhou Mingyi was the envy of all men.

"It's so good that such a good girl still reads that kind of thing." She sighed and muttered softly.

"Huh? What are you looking at?" Zana asked in confusion.

"It's nothing." Irenia said quickly. She didn't want to ruin such a pure girl's impression of her crush.

Zana rummaged in the cupboard for a long time and made a confused sound.

"no yet?"

She stood up and scratched her head.

"What's wrong?" Irenia asked.

"It seems that the strawberry ice cream puffs are gone. I was obviously expecting to eat this tonight." Zana said, "Well, Miss Irenia, I will go out and ask you to look after the house."

"okay."

Zana changed her clothes and went out, leaving Irenia alone in the house.

Not long after waiting, the sound of a car stalling was heard outside the house, and then the doorbell rang.

"Who is it?" Irenia walked out, opened the courtyard door, and then froze there.

Standing at the door was someone she had never dreamed of, the saintly girl from Tianshu, Luo Yuxian.

"Holy, Saint." Irenia stood there blankly.

Luo Yuxian, who was dressed in a white dress, stood tall and graceful, with short gray hair that was fluffy. Standing there, she was so beautiful that she seemed to be something other than a human being.

"Who are you?" Luo Yuxian tilted his head and looked at her, seeming to remember that she was the girl who sat next to Zhou Mingyi during the day.

After thinking for a moment, he said to her with a smile: "Excuse me, is Zhou Mingyi back?"

"Huh? No, no." Irenia said quickly after coming back to her senses.

"Then, I'll go in and wait for him."

Luo Yuxian said, walking in with Han Ningshi behind him, and sat on the sofa in the living room with ease.

Irenia looked at Xia Qiu who was standing at the door with a knife with some concern, but still followed him in.

"Saint."

"Just call me Yuxian." Luo Yuxian looked at her with a smile: "You are also my brother's friend, right?"

"I am Renee. I am an employee of Zhou Mingyi's coffee shop. He said that this place provides accommodation, so I live here." Irenia said. She didn't know that this saint was going to come here. What, so he still didn’t explain his true relationship with Zhou Mingyi.

But she quickly noticed something: "Brother? Did you just say brother?"

"Well, he is my brother. I have a very good relationship with him. My brother's friend is also my friend, so don't be nervous. Sit down quickly." Luo Yuxian smiled at her and said.

Irenia felt that her brain could not process this information for a while. How could Zhou Mingyi have such a relationship with the Saint?

She looked at the pair of beautiful, otherworldly faces, and then noticed her pair of green, heart-shaped pupils.

"Succubus?" she thought in surprise.

As the former royal family of the demon clan, she would definitely not mistake the racial characteristics of each clan, whether they were mixed-blood or pure-blood.

I haven't paid much attention to this saint in the past. After seeing her in person, I didn't expect that she is of the same race as me, and she is also a succubus that is not well regarded by everyone.

Such a pure and refined saint turned out to be a succubus, which made her feel agitated for a moment.

She thought that Zhou Mingyi was also a mixed-blood demon. Although their clans were different, could they really be the same...

Irenia sat down blankly.

"Is Zana not here too?" Luo Yuxian asked her.

"Oh, Zana, she went out to buy things. She should be back soon." Irenia said.

"Miss Renee, are you and your brother really just employees?" Luo Yuxian asked again.

Ilenia's heart suddenly condensed, her eyes darkened, and she thought in her mind: "Could it be that the saint is aware of the deals I made with Zhou Mingyi?"

Her mind was spinning, but she still said: "Well, it's just an employment relationship."

Zhou Mingyi was not around, so she didn't dare to talk about what happened with him. After all, she didn't know what the saint's true attitude was.

"Oh, that's right." Luo Yuxian nodded, his face seemed to be more relaxed.

"Saint, why are you here?" Irenia asked tentatively.

"For..." Luo Yuxian was about to say something, but he still pursed his lips and smiled slightly at her: "I just came here to sit."

"Yeah."

The atmosphere became silent, and Irenia didn't know what topic to talk about. She was still shocked that Zhou Mingyi had such a relationship with the saint. It's no wonder that his coffee shop was cared for by the saint. , it turns out he is not a fan.
