In a familiar Japanese courtyard.

Under the gentle corridor, the two old men, the priest and the elder, were still playing chess.

However, the harmonious and peaceful environment of the small courtyard could not keep the two of them calm. The steps of playing chess were far more messy than usual, and their level dropped directly to the novice stage.

The priest was twisting a chess piece in his hand, his old and majestic face was tense, but his eyes could not hide the irritability.

The flexible thinking in the past was disturbed by anger, and I really couldn't figure out how to make the move in front of me.

He suddenly grabbed the chessboard with both hands and lifted it hard.

The chessboard flew out with a crackle and fell against the wall, with the chess pieces scattered all over the floor.

Looking at the still angry priest, Elder Zong slowly put down the chess piece in his hand and sighed.

He knew why the priest was so angry. The news came back last night that even he himself smashed two priceless antiquities at home.

The trap aimed at Hoshikai Hikaru was originally foolproof - the weapons master was stronger than him, and he also brought people with him, and there was Kagebei to help him. Kagebei also had a trump card that could kill him together, and Nagumo Narumi was a hostage threat.

.

With such a safe arrangement, Mr. Zong could not imagine that it would be a total failure last night.

Without the important dead soldier Kagebei, and the weapon master who spent a lot of resources to train, his control over the resistance has been severely reduced.

If Xinghaiguang could be killed, then these losses would be acceptable, but Xinghaiguang escaped unharmed, and even the hostages he captured were rescued.

Not even a single person was left alive, and I don’t even know how I lost.

Such a major failure cannot be suppressed by the two of them, and they can only report it to the high priest.

As the priest who strongly advocated killing Xinghai Guang, he was naturally the first person in charge. He was severely reprimanded and punished by the high priest last night, so he is still angry and unable to control his emotions.

"no!"

The priest, still angry, suddenly said: "We cannot allow Xinghaiguang to continue to grow, otherwise he will definitely become a formidable enemy of our Protectorate, and we must eliminate him as soon as possible."

It was still the same old rhetoric, but Elder Zong knew that the priest probably really thought so when he said this before, but now he brought it up again, that is, he wanted to restore his negative image in the heart of the great priest by killing Xinghaiguang.

Elder Zong couldn't help but persuade: "We have lost the weapons master, and every shadow soldier is under the personal jurisdiction of a high priest. We no longer have any extra power to deal with Xinghaiguang."

The priest was dissatisfied and said: "If you leave it alone, what will happen if Xinghaiguang comes to your door?"

Elder Zong suppressed a smile: "Let's talk about it after he finds us."

The Protectorate is hidden deep behind the scenes, and the starry sea is bright and strong, but I am alone and powerless. Finding the Protectorate is no less than finding a needle in a haystack.

The priest also knew that he had said something stupid. After thinking for a while, he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "That loser Tsuyun Shinji gave him so much help, but he still failed."

If Shinji Tsugumo can seize the deceased, and there are killers at his disposal, they will not be stretched thin in terms of force now.

Seeing that the priest still refused to give up, Elder Zong had no choice but to continue to persuade: "The Heavenly Sacrifice is about to begin. After the Heavenly Sacrifice is over, the Great Priest will not let Xinghaiguang, an enemy who threatens the Protectorate, be allowed to do so.

I will take action personally."

The priest sneered in a low voice: "Two of the three artifacts have been lost. Even if the divine servants are selected after the heavenly festival and there are no artifacts available, it will only be two more Kagebei, which is a waste of effort."

Hearing these mocking words, Elder Zong couldn't help but sigh: "The Celestial Clan is pressing harder and harder. What else can we do besides doing these things?"

Both of them fell silent, feeling the silent pressure and uncertainty about the future.

If Japan were a normal country, they could still rely on their state machinery to deal with the Celestials.

But it happened that Japan was just a colony cloaked in the guise of a country, and was completely unable to resist the invasion of the Celestials.

After a long silence, Mr. Zong suddenly said: "Take care of it."

The sliding door in the room opened, and two maids with low eyebrows came in on their knees and packed up the chessboard and chess pieces scattered on the floor.

Elder Zong turned to look at Sarina who was waiting next door, and said kindly: "Sarina, during the heavenly sacrifice ceremony in a few days, you have to be more ambitious and work hard to become a divine servant and live up to our expectations."

Sarina leaned down slightly: "As you wish, Mr. Zong."

…

Chizuru Godera not only accepted Nagumo Asuka as a student, but also accepted Nagumo Narumi. After all, she was also an esper.

One of the two sisters is a fire element, and the other is a water element. They can be called the two heavens of ice and fire.

When Xu Cheng came to Chizuru Godera's house the next day, he saw that she was giving special training to the Nanyun sisters and the prophets - mainly training their physical fitness and reflexes, and teaching some self-defense skills by the way.

Seeing Chizuru Yudera reprimanding the three of them like a grandson, Xu Cheng couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and start filming, which made the three of them look at him angrily.

"Practice on your own."

Yudera Qianhe dropped a word and then came to Xu Cheng: "Come here so early?"

"Hurry up, or else you'll hold it all in your heart and won't be able to eat or sleep."

Xu Cheng smiled and replied that Chizuru Odera sent him a message last night saying that he had found a member of the Odera family living in seclusion in Tokyo and might know the secret of that year.

So he hurried over after breakfast, wanting to find someone with Chizuru Godera.

"Shall we leave now?"

"etc."

Yudera Qianhe called out to the eager Xu Cheng, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said: "It's time for you to apply ambergris."

Only then did Xu Cheng realize that seven days had passed since he first applied ambergris.

But what happened during the process made his heart beat faster.

Yudera Qianhe seemed to have thought of the same thing, and her eyes met with Xu Cheng's, and they separated instantly.

She pretended to be free and easy, reaching out and patting Xu Cheng's shoulder: "You go take a shower first, I'll be there in a minute."

Yudera Qianhe didn't care anymore. Xu Cheng, a grown man, certainly wouldn't be shy. He turned around and walked towards the room where the club was built last time.

"Miss, what do you think Mushroom and Teacher Qianzuru are going to do?"

Narumi Nagumo sneaked up to the prophet's ear and whispered.

The prophet stared at her expressionlessly: "Why did you add a small word in front of sister?"

She seriously suspected that this damn girl was deliberately mocking her for her small breasts.

Nagumo Narumi looked innocent: "Because I want to distinguish myself from my sister."

The prophet suggested: "You can call me Sister Prophet."

Narumi Nagumo followed the good advice: "Miss Prophet."

Prophet:?

Nagumo Narumi murmured again: "How about we go take a look secretly?"

The prophet was a little excited. After using his ability to make a prediction, he immediately said seriously: "I want to exercise, but I'm not interested."

Unable to win over his companions, the righteous leader of the Miracle Group had no choice but to act alone while his sister was not paying attention.

She searched around the room and soon found a closed door, from which there was a slight movement.

Nagumo Narumi immediately squatted in front of the door, put his ear to it, and vaguely heard the strange sound of water.

How to describe it, it's like the sound of slippery liquid being applied to your hands.

As an expert in water play, Nagumo Narumi gave a very accurate metaphor.

After eavesdropping for a while, I heard Teacher Qianhe's voice: "You're not feeling well yet? Why did it take so long?"

Then Mushroom’s voice seemed to be filled with smugness despite embarrassment: “For me personally, it’s a compliment.”

"What on earth are they doing?"

Nagumo Narumi really couldn't figure it out, so he subconsciously reached out to push the door, but with a slight push, it actually opened.

Before he had time to be happy, his whole body froze and he felt an obvious murderous aura.

She slowly raised her head and saw Chizuru Odera's eyes appearing in the crack of the door, staring down at her. In his ruthless eyes, it seemed that he wanted to kill someone.

Nagumo Narumi showed a smile that was even uglier than crying.

A few minutes later, she returned to the prophet with a panda eye on her face and an unconvinced look on her face.

"You tell me..."

Just as he was about to gossip to the prophet about what he had just overheard, Narumi Nagumo heard his sister's chilling voice from behind.

"Where have you been slacking off? You were caught once and you still like to run around, right?"

Nayun Narumi trembled all over, cold sweat dripping down his face.

"Sister, please listen to my excuses."

"We'll talk about it after I finish."

"Oh, it hurts."

Seeing the idiot being dragged away by Nayun Asuka, the prophet showed a gloating smile.

She didn't dare to gossip because she saw a dangerous future, but this damn girl actually wanted to drag her into trouble.

After applying the ambergris, Xu Cheng and Yusi Qianhe left the villa together and drove to the place where the Yusi tribe lived in seclusion.
