"So, those remnants of the Light are waiting for me?"
"Yes, and then you tricked them all."
"Are you saying that I should feel regretful about it?"
"Do you think that after living for so long, I would still be that naive?"
"I'll make you squirrel fish tomorrow."
"Oh my god, really!!!!"
"Look."
"These are two different things. Of course, I don't think that those remnants of the Light will bow and pay their respects to you once they find out that you're the one they're looking for. Look at how they treated Piajie and Mr. Bede. You'll probably be kept and controlled like a mascot."
"Most importantly, my identity was never meant to be revealed, but now I'm mixed up with the Light."
"Well, it's still better to continue working in the Order of the Gods."
"But if Mr. Bede left these two paintings behind, why didn't he just tell me directly?"
"He asked you to come back and see his daughter. If you didn't come back, you wouldn't have seen this. It's the stubbornness of a father."

"To be honest, I've never been able to figure out my future father-in-law."
"That's why people who believe in the Wall God are called crazy."
"Alright, let's rest. We have a mission with the team tomorrow morning."
"So, where's my squirrel fish?"
"Wait until next time."
"I'm not sleepy, why do I have to wait until next time?"
"You were eavesdropping that day."
"Guess what else I heard? Louder, I can't hear you, meow!"
"Okay, you'll never eat squirrel fish again in your life, Karun, can you handle it, meow!"
...
As soon as the sun rose, Karun packed up and Borg put all the luggage in the car.
Karun went to Unis's room, lightly kissed her forehead, then walked out and said goodbye to Old Anderson and the others, and got into his own car.
After the car left the Allen estate, Karun took out the wallet that Unis had given him, opened it, and saw a photo of himself and Unis cuddling on horseback.
Under the moonlight, the white horse and the beautiful woman.
This is a scene that many men have dreamed of, just as many girls have fantasized about their prince charming coming to pick them up, and many boys have fantasized about riding a white horse to pick up their beloved girl.
"You can turn back now." Puerh said, "I don't mind."
"But if I don't leave the Allen estate, will the Raphael family be destroyed by the Order of the Gods? Can the Allen estate still pick and choose the workshop industry of the Raphael family like it does now?"
Puerh was speechless for a moment.
"When Unis has fully digested the power in her blood, I will bring her over."
Puerh sat in the passenger seat, playing with her tail and turning her head to look at Karun, saying:
"Karun, I've noticed that the people in the Inmores family seem to be very loyal. In the many years I've been with the Inmores family, from Dis to your 'father', as well as Mason and Winnie, they all treat their relationships very seriously. Even Winnie, although she initially chose the wrong person, she didn't have any other emotional entanglements afterwards."
"It's not loyalty, it's because the Inmores value their family more."
"Sigh, when I was young, I thought that talking about love was so foolish and meaningless, and I never had such thoughts.""May I ask, which age group are you in now?"
"Just got rid of my youth, meow."
"Hehehe." Karun couldn't help but laugh, Puerh didn't get angry for once and laughed along.
At this time, Kevin, who was sitting in the back seat, also laughed along.
Puerh immediately turned her head and glared at him: "What are you laughing at, stupid dog!"
"... Kevin."
After a while, on the way, Puerh suddenly spoke up: "Karun, even the Bright Church has received divine guidance. I feel like this world may have undergone some changes or is currently undergoing them."
Because they set off early, Karun returned to the Blue Bridge Community at noon. He first sent Puerh and Kevin back home, then drove to the funeral home. When he arrived at the funeral home, he found that the renovation project in the backyard was already in the final stages. The efficiency was surprisingly high.
What surprised Karun even more was that Alfred had built another room on the basis of the original two storefronts. Although the Pavarotti Funeral Home had room for expansion at the end of the street, this was indeed an illegal construction.
However, the Blue Bridge Community was a densely populated area far from the city center, and illegal construction was quite common. The small commercial street not far from the Allen Apartment where he lived was basically made up of illegal iron sheds.
After entering, Karun saw Alfred with Dingkong and Pike installing doors and windows. After the doors and windows were installed, it was time for soft furnishings, which would be much faster.
It seemed that they could move in soon, because there was no need to wait for formaldehyde to dissipate. It's not that the decoration materials of this era are very environmentally friendly, but Karun can use the "purification" technique to remove formaldehyde from each room one by one.
Alfred saw Karun and ran down immediately: "Young Master."
"You worked hard, Alfred."
"Not at all, I even find it interesting."
Karun noticed Pike and Dingkong who were still working. They now looked energetic, completely different from their previous slave-like appearance.
"Is everything okay at home these days?"
"Nothing, Mrs. Lake has settled in the hotel, and I visit her every night."
"Okay, then I'll go to Wutong Street first."
"Okay, Young Master. If you need anything, please let me know and I'll come over immediately."
"Okay."
Karun returned to the car and drove to Wutong Street.
When he arrived at the academic building, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
After parking the car and entering, this time Karun didn't walk through the lobby again, but went straight to the corner and came to the lonely elevator. This should be an internal elevator.
He pressed the button, and soon the elevator door opened. The elevator operator inside smiled at Karun. Karun took out his plastic ring, and the other party didn't check it and directly signaled for Karun to come in.
She helped him press the floor, and Karun stood silently in the elevator feeling it go up.
Soon, the elevator door behind him opened, and Karun turned around and walked in. This was Neo's office, but Neo himself was not here.
At this moment, the door inside was opened, and the female secretary from last time came out. She smiled slightly when she saw Karun and said, "Please wait, I'll go inform the captain."
"Okay."
Karun sat down on the sofa.
The woman came out of the room soon and asked, "What would you like to drink?"
"Do you have ice water?""Okay."
The woman brought a glass of ice water to Karun and sat down opposite him, introducing herself:
"You can call me Vani, I'm one of the team members, but I'm usually in charge of the captain's secretarial work."
"Hello, Miss Vani."
At this moment, the elevator door opened, and Karun turned his head to see that it was not Neo who came in, but a woman in a leather jacket with blonde hair, nose and lip rings, and she was probably not even thirty years old.
The other party had been staring at him since she came in, her gaze very brazen and unreserved.
Karun stood up and said to her, "Hello, I'm Karun, an external team member."
The woman smiled, then leaned over to Karun, hugged his waist with both hands, and kissed him directly on the mouth.
Karun instinctively pushed her away with his hand.
"Oh, do you like touching here? Okay, I'll let you undo it. Vani, go and stop the elevator door, let the captain and the others come up later, I'll have fun with my husband first."
Vani couldn't help but rub her forehead and said, "Peina, don't be so troublesome."
"I'm not being troublesome. The captain told me himself that this new member was prepared for me to solve my personal problems."
"Peina, can you trust the captain's words other than when we are on a mission?"
"Hey, I didn't believe it at first, but when I saw him, I believed it. He's my most respected captain. How could he lie to me? Come on, sister... Oh no, dear husband, let me serve you well and make you happy."
Peina pushed Karun directly onto the sofa, and then she really took off her leather jacket, revealing many scars on her skin.
But Karun didn't have the mood to appreciate the wild beauty brought by the scars on her body, because she started to take off her bra.
"Peina, stop it."
Neo's voice came out.
Peina stopped her movements, put her clothes back on, turned her head, looked at the captain standing behind her, and said dissatisfiedly:
"Captain, you're really boring like this."
Neo walked straight to his desk and said, "Let's start the meeting now."
Peina blew a kiss to Karun and sat down next to Vani.
Karun also sat up straight. He really didn't know what to do just now. He couldn't just summon the Sea God's Armor directly, could he?
Then, Karun noticed the slight curve of Neo's mouth, as if he was satisfied that he couldn't continue to be "appropriate" with Peina.
"The next task is a protection mission. The representative of the Dark Moon family will arrive at the port at 2 pm two days later.
Our team is responsible for the security task during the meeting between the representative of the Dark Moon family and the York City officials."
Another security task?
Karun remembered that the last time was also a protection mission for the Anawas family.
Wait a minute.
Karun frowned slightly.
The Dark Moon family, why does this name sound so familiar?
Suddenly, Karun remembered that his 【Dark Moon Blade】 came from this family.
"This meeting is highly valued, the task level is very high, and the task rewards are also very rich. In addition, if the meeting is successful, the task rewards can be upgraded to another level."
Peina asked curiously, "Captain, what level is the task?"
"D-level."
"Just a security task is D-level, and if it is upgraded, it will be a D+ level reward?"
"Yes."
"Wow, Captain, how did you snatch this task?"
"They value her and the delegation so much that even our security team can be personally selected by the Dark Moon delegation...
Except for the teams with tasks in York City, the remaining 22 Order of the Whip teams in idle or small task status have all submitted applications."
"After all, it is a task of this level." Fanny nodded. "And the protection location is in York City, so it's not difficult, and the rewards are generous. Everyone must be envious."
"Yes, but I analyzed the list of names of the Dark Moon delegation in advance and found that the leader is Ophelia, the spokesperson of the Dark Moon family of this generation. She is only seventeen years old this year.
Therefore, other teams put the information of their strongest person in the first place, and many teams put the information of their captain on the first page..."
"What about you, Captain?" Peina asked.
Neo looked at Karun and said, "I put Karun's information on the first page!"
"..." Karun.
Neo clapped his hands and said, "And he was selected as expected."
"Captain, he is my husband!" Peina said.
"Miss Peina, I have a fiancée." Karun could only stand up to explain.
"I don't need a title." Peina said directly.
"Now it's mission time." Neo spoke up.
Peina could only sit down.
"According to the usual security etiquette, we need to send three people as personal security personnel. Considering that the spokesperson of the other delegation is a woman, for convenience, our two female team members Peina and Fanny, as well as Karun, will be the personal security personnel."
"Yes, Captain!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Peina and Fanny both put their right hands on their chest.
"Yes, Captain."
Karun also made the same action, although he felt that the captain's previous task allocation sounded strange.
"I and other team members will be responsible for security and surveillance tasks in the dark. Since this task has been completed, we must complete it in the best posture.
Because there will be many delegations coming to York City next, the Earl of Anawas highly appreciated our last task and wrote a thank-you letter to the high-level executives for our team after returning home."
When saying these words, Karun noticed that Neo's expression did not change at all. He was a person who could clearly distinguish personal feelings and private feelings.
"So, if our team can also complete the security task of the Dark Moon delegation perfectly, we will very likely be defaulted to take over all the remaining security tasks in the future.
The rewards are generous, the time is short, and the danger coefficient is low. I believe you all hope to have more of these tasks."
"Of course, Captain." Peina smiled.
"Fanny, you will take the task letter later and go to the management office to help Karun get a set of equipment."
"Okay, Captain."
"What's the use of those equipment? Who cares?" Peina smiled and looked at Karun. "With me, sister will give you a better set."
"Fanny told me that our new team member Karun even carries a regular pistol with him." Fanny smiled.
Karun could only smile politely and thought in his heart: Can I get over this black history?
"Zema also told me, Karun, is your girlfriend's family in bad condition?" Peina patted her chest. "Dump her, sister will take care of you!""Okay, the task allocation is over for now. The specific task and itinerary will be issued tomorrow. Fanny, pay attention to it."
"Okay, Captain."
"Also, Peina, you are in charge of the first task. During this period, you are not allowed to harass Karun because you are a member of the personal security team."
"I know, Captain." Peina finally quieted down.
Neo looked at Karun again and said, "If you find her annoying, you can shoot her and take her to the small forest."
"Huh... I'm looking forward to it. So, my husband likes this kind of atmosphere." Peina laughed, "But it's a bit cold now. When it's cold, blood circulation slows down."
Karun understood that if he found her annoying, he could beat her up and she wouldn't dare to act recklessly towards him.
So, is the internal atmosphere of this team so harmonious?
As the captain, he actually encouraged the team members to fight each other?
"Okay, the meeting is adjourned."
After the meeting, Fanny stopped Karun and signaled him to come with her. As a result, Karun, Fanny, and Peina all entered the elevator.
However, it seemed that Neo's warning earlier was effective, and Peina did not target him again.
"I'm leaving now. See you at the task gathering time."
"Okay." Fanny nodded.
"Goodbye, my dear. Remember to think of me, haha." Peina laughed and walked out of the elevator.
Karun then waited for the elevator to continue going down with Peina.
"If you don't like her, you can show it directly. In our team, we don't like courtesy and politeness."
"I think it's okay. It's not that serious."
"So, you're willing, right?"
"No."
"Hehe."
Fanny led Karun to the ninth floor, and Karun followed her, watching her handle the procedures. Finally, they arrived at a black iron door with a small window in the middle. A form was passed out from the window, and Fanny helped Karun fill it out before saying, "Sign it."
Karun signed his name: Karun. Silva.
After the form was submitted, a backpack was quickly thrown out from inside, and Karun caught it, not too heavy.
"These are all basic equipment. You can choose some to keep and sell the rest on the black market if you don't like them."
"Okay, I got it."
At this time, a middle-aged man with a bald head poked his head out of the window in the middle of the iron door, looking dissatisfied, "Can you take care of my feelings as an administrator and teach new people further away?"
"Oh, sorry." Fanny smiled and waved at him, then asked Karun, "Do you have anything else?"
"No."
"Then go back. The task gathering time is 6 a.m. the day after tomorrow in the captain's office."
"Okay, I got it."
Karun walked out of the building with his equipment bag, opened the car door, sat in, and put the bag on the passenger seat.
During this period, it seems that many families and external forces are negotiating with the Order of the Gods to reach cooperation. This feels like preparation for something.
When starting the car, Karun suddenly remembered what Puerh had said in the car in the morning:
"This world may be undergoing changes..."
So,
What kind of changes will it be?
