“Amu, your performance today in volunteering for Lord… Luo… that stinky man has made me very satisfied, extremely satisfied, so…”
"Would you like to be my agent?"
It turned out to be this.
Luo Xiu's expression was gentle. He was indeed quite satisfied with Amu. Now it mainly depended on whether Amu was willing.
Amu was somewhat bewildered by what Basil said.
agent?
What is this.
Soon, after Basil's rambling explanation, he understood what she meant.
He hesitated.
On the one hand, he had doubts about how much the agent could improve his strength; on the other hand, although he acknowledged Basil, he would subconsciously choose Selena over Basil.
Surprisingly, Basil, completely drunk, actually understood Amu's hesitation.
She waved her hand:
"I know what you're thinking, Amu. Don't worry, your real boss isn't me, it's this—"
Basil drew out the last syllable, pointing at Luo Xiu:
"That stinky man."
Amu was stunned, and then he heard even more shocking news.
"Of course, my boss is this jerk!"
As Basil spoke, she raised her head to look at Luo Xiu, pouting:
"Is it because I don't usually call you 'master' that you don't like me? Is that it? You stinky men are just like that!"
"What's wrong with that! You're so stingy. If you wanted to hear it, I would have just called you! You were the one who said not to call me that in public!"
Luo Xiu sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation upon hearing this.
This spendthrift woman has revealed all the family's secrets.
“I know that in your heart I am not as good as the previous Selena. It’s okay. I also feel that I am not as good as her in many ways.”
Seeing the stunned Amu, Basil waved his hand:
"But if you want to improve, this is your best choice. I, Basil, never lie!"
As she spoke, she suddenly looked up at Luo Xiu:
"Hate you!"
Then, as if she were a different person, she turned to look at Amu:
"I have a grand plan. From now on, we, the Demon Slayers, will be the best knightly order in this kingdom! Let me tell you..."
……
Twenty minutes later, after a long and persuasive speech from Luo Le, Amu was successfully persuaded to become his agent.
Basil talked so much when she was drunk that Amu was still in a daze when he left.
Leila pulled back the tent flap, gently placed the fast-sleeping Basil on the bed, glanced at Luo Xiu's helpless expression, and smiled:
"Leila hasn't seen her master look so troubled in a long time."
"Hopefully, I'll look less troubled in the future."
Luo Xiu smiled.
The two walked back to their sleeping tent, holding hands and chatting as usual.
"She has a very low alcohol tolerance; she should be forbidden from drinking from now on."
"Leila thinks that Sister Basil drank so much wine on purpose. She probably really feels that you, Master, don't like her, so she's very sad. If Leila felt that you, Master, didn't like her, Leila would be just as sad."
"I understand. If I felt that Leila didn't like me, I would probably be just as heartbroken."
"..."
"..."
Leila fell silent, her face burning with embarrassment and her head practically steaming.
The two chatted as they walked to the tent entrance, where they noticed a figure peering out, seemingly waiting for Luo Xiu to return.
Luo Xiu's gaze sharpened as he looked at the girl with pigtails standing at the tent entrance, not because of her appearance, but because of her clothing.
She was wearing a white dress as pure as moonlight.
Chapter 246 Star Seed, Sea Celebration, Blessing of the Sea God
Looking at the long dress that shone like moonlight spilling across the ground, Luo Xiu was slightly dazed.
He concentrated for a moment, then led Leila forward.
"Hello, are you looking for someone?"
The girl with pigtails was looking in another direction when she heard Luo Xiu's voice and was startled, so she turned her head around.
She hadn't expected that she wouldn't have noticed Luo Xiu's approach at all. Even though they were both at the fifth level, this alone showed that the gap between them was not small.
However, she had expected this and was not too surprised.
The fact that the man before him could survive a sixth-tier massacre and slay fifth-tier demons as easily as slaughtering dogs meant that the two were no longer on the same level and were beyond his reach.
"Lord Luo Xiu, hello. My name is Mo Bolan."
The girl with pigtails bowed slightly to Luo Xiu and introduced herself.
Luo Xiu nodded and returned the greeting in return:
"Luo Xiu."
"Leila."
He then introduced Leila, who was standing next to him.
This scene is rare, especially in Rovanpu, where people are straightforward and don't like overly complicated formalities. In the entire Kingdom of Dorant, there is only one place that truly loves these elaborate rituals.
King's capital.
Therefore, the origin of the girl in front of us is quite clear. She should be the branch leader of the Third Knights from the capital that the Grand Master mentioned.
"I came here today specifically to see you."
Moberland spoke directly, without beating around the bush.
"Is there something you need from me?"
Luo Xiu also didn't beat around the bush; he vaguely hoped that Mo Bolan would tell him something he wanted to know.
For example, the "introducer," or the secrets her teacher mentioned in Selena's diary.
After all, Moberland in front of her was also wearing a pure white dress.
According to what's written in the diary, this dress should be a clue, like a switch to unlock one's memories.
But what Moberland said left him somewhat confused:
"I've come to invite you, on behalf of my father, to become a star seed in our [Mad Lion] Knights."
"Star Seed?"
Luo Xiu blinked.
"Yes, Starseed."
Moberland nodded:
"You may not understand what the Starseed is; it's a plan known only to a select few."
"We at Dorrant are secretly selecting and nurturing a group of the most talented young people, letting them compete and even fight each other to reach the pinnacle."
“And we call these young people ‘star seeds.’ They are like stars in the sky that have fallen to earth as seeds. When they have fully grown up, they will become the next generation of Dorrant’s successors.”
"And this plan is also called Project Seed."
Upon hearing this, Luo Xiu understood somewhat.
His teacher once told him that in order to find new "Guides," Dorant gathered together the most talented young people in the entire kingdom for training, hoping to select the most gifted individuals who could attract "Guides" to take them as apprentices.
Even if it doesn't work out in the end, these young people are Dorrant's all-out gamble.
Dorant desperately needs Tier 7 right now.
No matter what, we must create a seventh-order one.
What are the benefits of becoming a Starseed?
Luo Xiu inquired, indicating that he was not opposed to the plan and would not mind joining if there were resources that he could utilize and that could accelerate his own growth.
Of course, this is on the premise that there are not too many restrictions.
After all, even without this plan, he believed he could reach even greater heights.
All he needs now is time.
Upon hearing that Luo Xiu was interested, Mo Bolan's eyes lit up, and he said happily:
"First of all, Star Seeds are extremely rare, with only a few forces in the capital having the quota. Therefore, each Star Seed will inevitably receive the full support and cultivation of the force to which it belongs."
"Secondly, becoming a Starseed grants certain privileges anywhere in Dorant, and the power one can truly enjoy is equivalent to that of a marquis."
"Most importantly, becoming a Star Seed is the only way to reach the seventh rank. I wonder if you, Lord Luo Xiu, are aware that the divinity in the area where Dorant is located is now insufficient, making it extremely difficult for a seventh rank to emerge. Therefore, if you want to become a seventh rank, there is only one way: to enjoy the nourishment of resources."
"Think about it, even if you are exceptionally talented, if other geniuses like you enjoy resources while you don't, you will quickly fall behind."
Moberland spoke with great enthusiasm, her eyes even sparkling, because ever since she learned about this plan, becoming a Starseed had become her lifelong dream. However, when she told her father about this idea, her father bluntly said that she was still far from having the talent.
She was initially unconvinced, and part of the reason she came to Rovaniepu for this experience was to prove herself.
After all, she reached the fifth level in her early thirties. For geniuses like them, 30 is still a time when they are full of energy and good looks, and it is their prime.
However, her experiences after arriving in Rovanpu were somewhat disheartening. When she tried to put herself in her father's shoes, she realized that his situation was far more difficult than she had imagined.
