Invincible Copy System
Chapter Summary
Also, make this clear to me: you have already betrayed the Mage's Guild." In Yale's heart, Lin Lei was no longer a friend. Who knew that Lin Lei not only didn't help him take revenge, but instead prevented him from doing so, and even made Liu Ning his magical follower. Now, seeing that she was recovering quite well, even skipping and hopping around, Liu Ning's system scan revealed that Zhao Lele had only recovered to 80%.
"Don't worry, you can't stop what's going to happen. But I know my limits. I won't go too far under these circumstances. But pass on a message to me: what this kid owes me will never change just because he joined the Mage's Guild. And I will never swallow this insult. I hope you understand that the fact that this guy is still alive in this situation is pure luck. I will definitely get back everything that belongs to me. This is a mage's dignity. Also, make this clear to me: you have already betrayed the Mage's Guild."
In Yale's heart, Lin Lei was no longer a friend. This guy had completely betrayed the Mage Master and completely betrayed him. After what had happened to him, didn't this guy understand? Didn't he know how humiliating he was? Logically speaking, the two of them had trained and grown up together since childhood, and Yale's hatred was equivalent to Lin Lei's hatred. Who knew that Lin Lei not only didn't help him take revenge, but instead prevented him from doing so, and even made Liu Ning his magical follower. That was clearly a statement to Yale that from now on, Liu Ning's affairs were Lin Lei's affairs, and Yale had been excluded.
Linley could only nod in agreement with what Yale said. It was impossible to reason with him; he could only explain the consequences. Yale knew he was a member of the Mage's Guild, so he wouldn't cause trouble at this moment. At least he could hold back under these circumstances. Otherwise, the Mage's Guild's punishment would be severe, and Yale was well aware of that.
"Master, you've come too..."
Upon hearing the voice, Liu Ning knew Zhao Lele had arrived. Zhao Lele's body had completely collapsed during her last battle with Yamamoto, so Liu Ning hadn't taken her with him when he left the city. Now, seeing that she was recovering quite well, even skipping and hopping around, Liu Ning's system scan revealed that Zhao Lele had only recovered to 80%. The remaining recovery would take some time. According to Liu Ning's thinking, Zhao Lele should withdraw from the selection competition and not go to the ancient ruins. But Zhao Lele certainly wouldn't do that. A person only has a very few opportunities in their lifetime to go to the ancient ruins; how could she possibly give up such an opportunity? If she really gave it up, she would probably regret it for the rest of her life. This was a very reasonable explanation.
People around had actually seen Liu Ning a long time ago, but they didn't come over for two reasons. One reason was that they were afraid of being noticed by Professor Yale. If you acted too friendly with Liu Ning in front of Professor Yale, it would be like slapping him in the face. The second reason was that everyone's circles were different. In the city's high society, each circle had a fixed group of people. If you didn't have the ability, it was best not to force your way into someone else's circle. It wouldn't do you any good and might even make you lose face. So these people understood very well that they couldn't do things that way. They had to be obedient, and that's exactly what they were doing.
It was precisely because of their choice that Liu Ning and Zhao Lele had some time to chat. The two hadn't spoken for a long time. Liu Ning taught Zhao Lele some breathing techniques to help her recover quickly. Just as Liu Ning had predicted, Zhao Lele was determined not to give up this opportunity and was definitely going to the ancient ruins.
“Mr. Liu, may we talk? Please allow me to introduce myself. I am from the Human Investigation Bureau, the highest-level investigation bureau in the entire human society. My name is Julie, and from now on you can call me Agent Julie. I will take over the whole matter from now on. I am referring to the Fusang Martial Arts School. I wonder if Mr. Liu has the time?”
Liu Ning and Zhao Lele arrived at a rather secluded spot, intending to have a cup of coffee, when a tall Westerner suddenly appeared next to them. As a senior agent in the Human Investigation Bureau, Agent Julie naturally knew when to talk and when not to. There were too many people there, so it wasn't a good place to talk. That's why they had to find this place. However, he wasn't here to discuss business with them. The two, master and apprentice, wanted to catch up, but they were disturbed by them.
It was obvious that Zhao Lele was in a bad mood. She hadn't seen her master for a long time, and if she was disturbed again, when would she ever be able to have a proper chat with him? However, the assassin Liu Ning also had his own thoughts. There were too many unanswered questions about the Fusang Martial Arts School, and if they couldn't be resolved for the time being, Liu Ning would be worried about them. So he looked at Zhao Lele, hoping that the girl could be sensible. They could talk as master and disciple, but their own affairs weren't that important, and they could choose another time.
"I am truly sorry, Ms. Zhao. I know this matter is very abrupt, but we have made some new findings in our investigation, so we would like to exchange experiences with Mr. Liu. If possible, we may be able to make a breakthrough. Ms. Zhao is also a victim in this matter, and the sooner we find out the truth, the more helpful it will be for her."
Julie, being a perceptive woman, naturally understood what Zhao Lele was thinking. Upon hearing this, Zhao Lele, not one to make trouble unnecessarily, realized this matter wouldn't be easily resolved. If help were needed, her master would have spoken up, but he hadn't. Therefore, this matter needed to be entrusted to someone capable. To outsiders, Zhao Lele was considered quite capable, but the situation was completely different now.
Zhao Lele left reluctantly. She had originally planned to talk to her master alone for a while, but when she turned back, she stared intently at the European woman. As soon as they finished talking, she had to go over there immediately.
"This situation has fundamentally changed. All of our investigators have met with misfortune. The other side has become aware of us and has launched a counterattack. Many of us have died in this incident, so the investigation has reached a certain dead end..."
