Lord of Eternal Darkness

In a clean hotel, four people looked at each other around a table. Everyone was silent, not knowing how to speak. Someone finally broke the topic.

"How to solve Li Xiaoming's problem? Although he has cut off contact with the saint, Huawei University is not easy to mess with. If he really becomes a student of their school, there is nothing we can do."

"After all, he is second in the ladder competition, and the purity of the dream element of the dream master is simply exaggerated. Such a person has a place no matter where he is placed."

Everyone was wearing white sun-patterned white robes, dotted with cross decorations. They were clearly members of the Holy Cross Cult that had previously targeted Li Xiaoming.

John looked at the bearded man and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter much. It just helps us share some firepower. After all, the commotion is too big. Everyone knows the source of evil, and it will be even harder to deal with it by then."

The believer on the other side said: "However, it is not good for our clan's sacred relics to be kept in the hands of an outsider. If it is used indiscriminately by that kid, it may lead to disaster."

The bearded man said depressedly: "How about we secretly send someone to snatch it?"

"I don't think it's appropriate. If the news comes out, it will damage the face of the sect, and the suspicion during this period is too high. If you are not careful, it may cause a strong counterattack from the forces behind him."

John touched his chin and said, "I have an idea. Didn't our saintly lady spend some time with that kid? She was able to persuade her to make that kid become our believer and help us."

"Are you seducing that boy? But I heard from my granddaughter that he seems to have a fiancée and is not interested in other women at all. Moreover, if the saint loses her virginity, the glorious ceremony will not be used at all.

Moreover... the leader has warned that the Holy Lady must combine with the Holy Son to exert her power. "

"Haha, is that alien? How dare you call him the Holy Son? I've never even heard of their sect, so it doesn't matter." A trace of displeasure flashed on John's face. After all, Saint Assad was his childhood friend. See the big ones.

"Sorry, Missionary John, I said too much." The people on the side quickly apologized.

"It's okay. After all, it won't be a problem if the things are left there for a long time. We need to do some tricks in the next exam, but the operability is very low. We also have to be careful of the villains from the Blood Moon Society, who can get the things before us. Let’s go, so I might have to take care of Li Xiaoming.”

Everyone was speechless again. What John said was really unpleasant. A pagan was wandering around with his own things, but he couldn't offend him and even protected him.

Now on the other side.

Li Xiaoming didn't know what the other forces were discussing about him. The cool breeze from the electric fan was very comfortable. Now he felt very tired and exhausted his energy. His eyes were very sleepy and his vision was flickering. He couldn't hold on any longer. He fell directly on the sofa and fell asleep.

Lu He imitated his husband's behavior, shook his head helplessly, and then covered him with the quilt.

"Cheer up, sir. I believe you can achieve better results tomorrow."

Li Xiaoming was asleep in the dream, and for some reason he felt that he was more comfortable controlling the dream element. He would not easily vent the energy of the dream, but he didn't know if he would be pulled into the dream world again.

"Light...nothing...dark."

"Bright, nothing, dark~"

"My loyal friend, welcome back to the call of dreams. I have been spying on you silently. Do weak ants dare to move the boulder? Guides holding candles, you must not relax and leave the reincarnation. Come on, madness and flesh and blood are calling your name."

Li Xiaoming didn't even see it, but these words rang in his ears, and he instantly opened his eyes and broke into a cold sweat.

My shirt was soaked through, and the wind from the electric fan was still blowing. It was a very quiet afternoon, but it was a little more lively than in the past, not much different.

He felt his mouth was dry and looked to the side in a daze. Lu He was sleeping peacefully, with a smile on his face. He was a good boy who knew how to take a nap.

Li Xiaoming grabbed his hair and scratched it into a messy chicken coop shape, feeling a little annoyed.

"Why does it feel so familiar, but I just can't remember it? Even if my body has been frozen for 1,000 years, my mind should still be active, and I have even traveled to every corner of the universe, but why can't I remember the details?"

One of his pupils widened and he felt helpless. Who did he sign that bet with? I only remember the bet to save the world. Who was that guy who laughed at the weakness of human beings?

He took a sip of water, finally regained his composure, and walked quickly to the balcony.

People are coming and going on the street, the sound of hawking is endless, and the vehicles are flowing continuously. The hot afternoon still cannot stop the enthusiasm of the group of people shopping.

Li Xiaoming looked back at the clock hanging on the wall. It was already 4:30 in the afternoon. He had slept for 2 hours, but he only felt that 5 minutes had passed.

"Forget it, let's go downstairs to buy groceries first. Wait, there should be some leftovers in the kitchen."

As Li Xiaoming spoke, he walked to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. There were still some meat and eggs left in it.

There was also a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes and vegetables, and it was obvious that it was made by Lu He.

"It feels pretty good, but it's too little. Anyway, I got good results today. I should celebrate myself and buy some seafood to try." Li Xiaoming thought happily, forgetting the unpleasantness just now.

He walked out quietly, closed the door, and started his grocery shopping trip again.

"It's time to buy something, a good scroll."

"If you pass by, don't miss the extremely high-quality weapons. The time limit is 40 minutes."

"Magic potion, who wants to buy magic potion?"

…

He suddenly heard some different sounds in the market. The vendors he was looking at were all very unfamiliar, and the quality of the equipment in his hands was indeed good. It seemed that it was made by a large chamber of commerce. How could they be selling it on the street? ?

And there are even some contraband. This is all a bit too abnormal. Could it be because all the students came to take the exam today?

Suddenly someone called him. "Brother, it seems that you are also an extraordinary person. There is an exam tomorrow. Do you want to come over and buy some equipment?"

Li Xiaoming walked over and looked him up and down. He was a young man, no more than 30 years old. He held his hands nervously and lowered his eyes, not daring to look directly. There were very high-quality things on the stall. It was probably the first time he put them on display. Let's stall.

"Well, do you sell swords?"

Li Xiaoming asked tentatively. After all, he didn't know where he lost the black iron crowbar when he went to the sewer last time, so he still lacks a melee weapon.

"No, I make staffs. If you want to buy a sword, you have to find the guy with a shield." After saying that, the merchant pointed to the stall next door. There was a large amount of iron equipment piled up on it. The boss also had a arrogant face and was holding a shield. introduce.

"What is the person throwing coins doing?" Li Xiaoming asked curiously at another stall next to him.

The little brother said: "Oh, it's just a little trick of a fortune teller. You can judge luck based on the number of fronts and backs. Extraordinary people also have to eat, so they have to use their skills to make some money.

"Although I think his Yao hanging skills are a lie, otherwise he must not have counted today, and will you buy anything?"

"Buy, buy, but answer me some questions first. Why do so many unlicensed stalls suddenly appear on this street?" Li Xiaoming asked curiously, and no one was looking after them.

The salesman sighed helplessly. "Hey, we are all in the same chamber of commerce. We all lived in harmony and made business, but it was almost the end of the month and he wanted to raise the rent."

"They even buy the equipment we make at low prices and sell them in the name of the Chamber of Commerce to make huge profits. The profits we make from selling them ourselves are still higher. Don't we treat people as fools!"

After hearing the conversation between the two, the eldest brother holding a shield said: "Yes, although I have children and a wife at home, I can't stand this nonsense, so we raised signs to resist."

Then they sent people to blast them out, saying that if you leave, people will come naturally. We are all people who rely on craftsmanship to make a living. We don’t bother to use machines to mass-produce or use shoddy products to fool people, so we set up a stall here. Earn some money and see when the Tengyun Chamber of Commerce realizes its mistake and consider going back. "

Li Xiaoming frowned. After all, the Tengyun Chamber of Commerce was the most famous chamber of commerce in the Eternal Empire, even surpassing the Treasure Collecting Chamber of Commerce. How could it do such a despicable thing? Did the store boss forget about the Treasure Collecting Chamber of Commerce?

It's a bit abnormal. Why target these handcrafters?

Could it be that they use machines to prepare and pass off inferior products, and then hand-made products are sold in limited quantities? Isn’t this just stealing the wool of low-level producers? From being an agent for selling products and collecting rent, it has become an industry of manufacturing and selling. This money-making brain is a bit hard to react to.

Thanks for all your support, we finally exceeded 101 people directly, although most of them came to cheer, not to read.
