Chapter 335: Elki Returns
Chapter 335: Elki Returns
"Sir Carmen, I heard that you were just attacked. How is the situation?" As Carmen just entered the conference hall, a saint wearing a golden mask took the initiative to ask about her.
"The intruder left and I couldn't stop him." Carmen looked calm, pulled out a chair and sat down, then answered indifferently.
"I'm glad you're not injured. There is such a serious loophole in the security of the headquarters. It seems that we need to continue to increase manpower."
"The invaders have special abilities. There is no need to waste precious manpower here. It is more important to arrange more Grand Inquisitors to lead the team to deal with the terrifying fish invasion in the coastal city."
"Oh...can you tell me more about it?" The saint with a golden mask on his face leaned forward, looking very interested.
"The meeting is about to start, so let's start the meeting first." Carmen turned her head to look at the projection screen in the conference room, on which the theme of the meeting was projected.
"Sir Carmen is right. We'll talk later." The saint who was talking to Carmen sat up straight and looked up at the projection screen together.
The content of the Saints' Conference has remained largely unchanged over the past decade.
The recovery of industrial production, the yield of food crops, the activities of the Deep Sea Church and the terrifying fish...
Each item is very important, and the authenticity and reliability of the data must be guaranteed. The Saints and relevant departments need to make plans for the next cycle based on these data.
When the reporter mentioned the grain production, Carmen observed the reactions of other saints and did not find anything unusual.
"It seems that the mysterious man has not contacted other saints yet. I am the first one he chose..." Carmen, who was in the conference hall, began to think about the test results of the soil sample.
If the result is soil soaked by sea water, the rice rooted in the saline-alkali soil will be the hope of Iberia.
With it, the Iberian people who were short of food and suffering from hunger had a chance to escape hunger.
After the meeting, Carmen left the venue directly, claiming he was not feeling well. His usually steady steps seemed a little hurried, as he could not wait to see the test report of the soil sample.
A test report enclosed in a brown paper bag was already placed on the desk.
"Tear!" Carmen didn't have the patience to untie the bag and chose to tear it open directly.
"Haha... Good! Great!" Carmen's sharp eyes quickly locked onto the test results. She couldn't help but smile, and her hands holding the report couldn't stop shaking.
"No matter what, I must meet that person again!"
......
In Kazdale City, a new clinic opened next to the busy central hospital.
The owner of the clinic is a young and lovely Sarkaz. Her race is somewhat special, she is a moss heart demon from the former ten royal courts. With the support of bloodline magic, she can directly touch the patient's heart and give some just-right guidance.
The psychological clinic is not open every day and an appointment must be made in advance because the clinic's owner, Neve, has other jobs and the psychological clinic is just a side job.
"Amy, you haven't contacted me for a long time. How come you have time to come here today?"
"I finally completed the task that the teacher threw at me. I'm half dead..." Ermengarde sat slumped on the sofa with a tired look on his face, a huge hat covering his face.
"As long as the work task is completed successfully, you should have a good rest today. How about we go shopping tomorrow?" Neve came behind Ermengarde and squeezed her friend's stiff shoulders with both hands.
"Well, I've saved a lot of my salary and can buy some nice clothes." Ermengarde hummed a few times and stretched.
"Knock knock knock, is anyone there?" There was a knock on the thick door of the clinic, followed by light footsteps.
"Yes, yes, here I come! Amy, excuse me for a moment, someone wants to see me."
Ermengarde made no response; she was so exhausted that she had fallen asleep.
Neve put on her white coat, picked up her diagnostic tool box and left the lounge.
A tall and familiar female figure sat quietly on a wooden chair.
Among the people he knew, only Elqi had returned.
A hint of joy appeared on Neve's little face, and she quickened her pace.
"Long time no see, little Neve." Hearing the footsteps, Elki turned around. The upper half of his face was covered by an ancient mask engraved with mysterious silver lines and a purple gem on his forehead.
The calm and deep eyes seemed to contain the bright starry sky, and the corners of his mouth were raised with a faint smile.
"Elki, I missed you. You're finally back." Neve threw herself into Elki's arms and rubbed her head against him.
"Yeah, I missed you too." Elki hugged Neve gently and stroked her little head softly.
"Elki, this on your face is..." Neve stretched out her hand, wanting to touch the mysterious mask.
"Don't touch it, the power on it will hurt you." Elqi stopped Neve and warned her with a serious expression.
"Ah! Then I won't touch it, I'll just take a look..." Neve retracted her hand obediently, and instead moved her little face closer, looking at the mask carefully.
"Elki, I can sense an ancient aura on it. Is it a legacy from the Cyclops King's Court?"
"Well, I went through a special ritual and inherited the power that the Cyclops had passed down for thousands of years."
"Will it hurt?"
"Fortunately, I managed to get through it by gritting my teeth."
"Um...By the way, Elki, you're back just in time. Amy and I are going shopping tomorrow. Do you want to come with us?"
"Yes, sure. I've been away from Kazdel for a while, so I'll take this opportunity to go around and have a look."
