Disaster Strikes

Nanyin Kingdom is one of the three powerful countries in the Western Continent, and is famous for its supernatural powers and magical props.

The headquarters of the Grape Company is located in the new town of Yagu in Nanyin. This is a prosperous southern town. It was established by the Grape Company to commemorate their major discoveries in Yagu.

Three days later.

Chen Mo took a car and came to this small southern town.

There are many factories in Yagu City.

The Putao Group is a multinational group involved in health care, new materials, finance and banking, energy stones, and international mercenaries. It has tens of thousands of workers.

A specific metaphor.

The strength of this group is comparable to that of a small pocket country.

"The tallest building over there is the headquarters building of the Grape Group."

Chen Mo got the specific address from passers-by.

Three buildings similar to the headquarters of Akagi Hi-Tech Group, each one must be more majestic, forming a "pin"-shaped series.

Chen Mo came to the gate and was stopped by a security guard.

"Sir, this is the headquarters building of the Grape Group. Non-internal personnel are not allowed to approach. For sightseeing, you need to make a reservation in advance and can only enter within a specific time."

Chen Mo heard this and said, "I'm here to see Mr. Jack."

"Mr. Jack?"

The security guard was slightly stunned, and called a beautiful receptionist through the intercom.

This beautiful receptionist has the physique of a woman from the Western Continent. She is quite tall and tall, at least 1.75 meters tall. She is wearing a black short skirt and high heels, giving her a very professional atmosphere.

She pushed up her black-rimmed glasses and looked Chen Mo up and down.

"Hello sir, who is Mr. Jack you are talking about and what is his full name?"

Chen Mo was speechless when he heard this.

After thinking about it.

He took out a business card and a pure gold family crest from the gentleman's hat and handed them to the other party. The beautiful receptionist's expression suddenly changed and she returned her hands.

"Sir, please wait a moment."

After a while.

A white-haired old man came over with two men in sunglasses and suits.

During the respectful explanation given by the beautiful receptionist, he looked at Chen Mo with doubts on his face.

"Sir, I am one of the personal butlers of the Anglo family. You can call me Old John. I am responsible for receiving the private business of the Anglo family at the group headquarters. I heard that you hold the gold badge of the Anglo family. Can you please show it to me again? one time?"

Don’t say anything else.

In such a short period of less than five minutes, Master Jack's status in Chen Mo's heart continued to rise like a rocket.

Chen Mo didn't say anything and immediately showed him the badge that Jack had given him.

After carefully examining it, the old butler returned his hands to Chen Mo, and immediately motioned to the beautiful receptionist and security personnel behind him to ceremoniously take Chen Mo to the VIP reception room on the first floor of the headquarters building.

After a while.

The old housekeeper handed over a phone number.

"Hey, traveler, is that you?"

"Haha, Master Jack, I'm here to join you."

After hearing Chen Mo's voice, Jack's hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone.

"It's great that you can come. During this period, I have been living in seclusion here with Lucia. It is really boring. She is still sad about that incident. Give the phone to Old John and I will ask him to send someone to take you there. come over."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo handed the phone to the old housekeeper as requested by Jack.

As for what Jack said, Lucia's sadness was naturally due to the aging of her face caused by the life evolution device.

"Okay, Master."

Just a few moments.

The two ended the call cleanly.

"Mr. Traveler, please come with me."

"Um."

Following Old John, Chen Mo walked to a stretched luxury car.

"Mr. Traveler, Master Jack's private nursing home is about 20 minutes away from here. You are a distinguished guest of the Anglo family. If you need anything on the way, you can tell Jenny."

The Jenny he was talking about was naturally the beautiful receptionist.

"OK."

Chen Mo was really uncomfortable with this level of treatment.

This made him miss Leigo a little. If that guy were here, he would be calm and composed.

Old John looked back at the two men in sunglasses and suits behind him.

"You two are responsible for delivering Mr. Traveler to Master Jack smoothly, safely and quickly."

"yes."

At first glance, these two people were well-trained professional bodyguards, and they entered the driver's seat and the passenger seat respectively.

As the two started the engine, the car drove smoothly. The cab and the back seat of the extended car seemed to be separated into two spaces. There were only two people in the back row, Chen Mo and Jenny. Jenny's pair of slender legs were particularly attractive. Attention.

From Jenny's mouth, Chen Mo learned about the history of the Putao Group, the history of Yagu New City, and the power system of Nanyin Kingdom.

It is different from the countries in the Eastern Continent, or in other words, it is different from the countries where the martial arts professional system is the mainstay.

In the Eastern Continent, no matter what form of government, there is support from various major factions.

In the Western Continent.

The power system of each country is composed of members of Congress on the surface, but in fact it is the plutocrats who control the operation of the country. These so-called members of Congress are nothing more than spokesmen for the plutocrats.

among the countries in the Western Continent.

The only forces that can compete slightly with these plutocrats are various theocratic structures and the forces of major colleges, but they can only compete slightly in certain areas.

The Putao Group's status in Nanyin Kingdom is that of an upstart chaebol.

Due to its development in recent years, the Anglian family has successfully become one of the top ten families in Nanyin Kingdom.

The plutocrats of Nanyin Kingdom can be divided into three major categories, namely: the traditional powerful people of the Super Power Academy, the superconducting weapons and arms dealers, and the upstarts of the medical and health care industry.

The Anglo family is an upstart in the medical and health care industry.

Chen Mo just wanted to know a little bit about this.

Twenty minutes passed quickly.

As the car stopped at a picturesque manor, Chen Mo, at Jenny's signal, entered this building that perfectly combined ancient atmosphere with modern art.

After a while.

Chen Mo saw Jack sitting on the sofa playing a game console in the hall.

"Master Jack, I brought Mr. Traveler."

"Traveller, it's great to see you again. Please wait a moment while I pass this level."

When Chen Mo heard this, he couldn't help but look at the TV screen. This turned out to be a 2D shooting game similar to Contra. This young master Jack was playing it with gusto. His body holding the remote controller kept moving left and right along with the character's actions. Swing right.

"Game over!"

"Why."

Jack sighed, threw the remote controller aside, stood up from the sofa, and put his arm around Chen Mo's shoulders, still dressed in a short-sleeved shirt and tight jeans.

"It's been more than a year. How was your trip to the Eastern Continent?"

"Not bad, I learned two martial arts skills."

Jack motioned for Chen Mo to sit down.

"Haha, your progress is a bit slow. When I was on Starfish Island, the martial arts masters I invited here, I saw with my own eyes that a jeep was scrapped with just one punch."

Jack obviously doesn't understand the way martial artists improve.

Chen Mo was not angry.

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. By the way, where is Miss Lucia?"

"She..."

When Jack heard this, he sighed and seemed a little disappointed.

"Traveller, you should know how much I love her, but she is no longer the cold, confident, and proud girl she once was, because the series of blows from the Hive organization have made her sensitive, manic, and inferior. , I tried many methods, but couldn't cure her, I..."

"After suffering so many blows, she is just a girl after all. I understand her."

Say it.

Chen Mo said slowly: "Can you take me to see him?"

"That's fine, but she doesn't necessarily want to see you."

Jack shrugged.

Seeing that Chen Mo was still insisting, he waved to the people behind him to stay. He took Chen Mo alone to a remote courtyard.

"Lucia."

"Jack, what's the matter? I hope you can come over again in the evening."

Through Jack's words on the road, Chen Mo has learned that even Jack, Lucia is only willing to meet him for a short time at night.

She has become extremely sensitive because of her aging and ugly appearance.

"It's a traveler who's coming. He wants to see you."

"Traveler?"

Then Lucia's restless voice came from the courtyard.

"No, no! I...wuwu."

Jack looked at Chen Mo and shrugged.

Seeing this, Chen Mo suddenly said: "Miss Lucia, please don't get me wrong. I'm here this time because I already have a way to treat your current symptoms. Although I can't cure you, I can at least greatly alleviate your symptoms." Appearance.”

Jack on the side was shocked when he heard this.

Chen Mo continued to explain: "This is a treasure I found when I was traveling in the Eastern Continent."

Before Lucia could say anything, Jack took a deep breath, and the frivolity and helplessness on his face turned into seriousness.

"If you can make Lucia return to normal, I can promise you anything, as long as it is within my ability, and I will never shirk it!"

When Chen Mo heard this, he couldn't help but smile with relief.

After a long time.

The courtyard door opened a crack, and a woman wearing a mask appeared. There was no doubt that she was Lucia.

"Is what you just said true?"

Chen Mo didn't waste any words and handed over the beauty water.

Tip: Beauty water.

Quality: white.

Conditions of use: Creatures with distinct facial features.

Item attributes: Facial features reduce aging, and have obvious effects on young creatures.

Item introduction: It is a priceless treasure for those who love beauty. Some people once sacrificed their souls to obtain it.

This is a white quality item that Chen Mo obtained in the foggy world.

He originally wanted to sell it to a character like the Evil Queen in a world like Snow White to maximize its value. However, the doomsday mission was approaching and there was pressure from the Amaterasu Society. After learning about Lucia's After the tragic situation, he immediately thought of using Lucia to maximize the value of this bottle of potion as soon as possible.

After taking the potion from Chen Mo, Lucia quickly closed the door, obviously eager to test it.

When Jack saw this, although he was a little worried, he quickly concealed his emotions.

"Come on, come here once in a while and accompany me to go racing."

"Drag racing?"

Chen Mo chuckled.
