Vol.1 - Chapter 129 – VIP treatment

After taking a bath and changing clothes at Lilith's place, Su Li returned to his own room.

As soon as he entered the room, Su Li's first task was to store all the important items in the Dragon God Temple. After all, the Thief's Belt was too strange, although it was useful, it couldn't prevent things from being lost. Previously, in the underground black market, Su Li discovered that he had lost a lot of ores. Fortunately, the Bloodstone was not among them. Otherwise, Su Li would have nowhere to cry.

After storing various items, Su Li was about to lie down when someone knocked on the door. Su Li opened the door and found that it was Joan of Arc, who had changed her clothes. Accompanying her was Simon, who had just been promoted to "Cultivator".

Looking at this pair of siblings, Su Li asked in confusion, "You've been busy all night, why aren't you sleeping? What are you doing here?"

Joan of Arc returned the two pieces of clothing to Su Li and shook two money bags, saying, "Let's talk inside."

Su Li was puzzled and didn't know what these siblings were up to. He let them into the room. Simon took the initiative to lock the door for Su Li.

Joan of Arc then said, "Father Su Li, thank you very much for protecting us and Lilith yesterday. Not only did you fulfill our wish, but you also spent a lot of money."

Hearing that they came for this matter, Su Li smiled slightly. Although he didn't intend to ask for their magic medicine money, it was reasonable for them to express their gratitude for their kindness.

"It's nothing. We took your money in advance, so it is our duty to protect your safety."

Simon spoke up, "We understand, but two thousand pounds is too much. Even in Delan Becca, it's enough to buy a decent house. Although we don't have much money, we are willing to repay it slowly."

As they spoke, Joan of Arc handed the money bag to Su Li and said firmly, "Here is one thousand pounds. We will slowly repay the rest."

"Father, besides this matter, I also want to ask about the communication with the gods before. Does it still count?"

Seeing their determined attitude, Su Li left the money bag and said, "We will not charge you extra for this one thousand pounds. The method of praying to the gods is..."

Su Li conveyed the ritual to Joan of Arc and Simon. Although Su Li had not been in the world of mysticism for a long time, his starting point was in the Dark Night Church after all. Maybe he could really help the siblings? Besides, even if he couldn't, there was still his teacher, Mourinho. He was a true Land Angel, the strongest person in the world. After bidding farewell to the grateful siblings, Su Li hung the "Do Not Disturb" sign outside the door. After the adventure in the private mine yesterday and absorbing four Bloodstones, he was quite exhausted. He needed a good sleep to replenish his energy.

...

Su Li slept very soundly. After a few days of exhaustion, he was awakened by the sound of a steam whistle and a loud knocking on the door. Opening the door, Su Li saw four or five people standing outside, led by Melissa, the person in charge of the noble carriage. Behind her were Lilith and Edward Howill, a member of the Mechanical Heart Squad, and the squad leader, Cephalus.

Seeing so many people standing outside the door, Su Li asked in confusion, "What's going on? Why is everyone here?"

Melissa breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Su Li was fine and said, "You haven't appeared for three days. You haven't eaten or drunk anything. What have you been doing in the room?"

Su Li was surprised and asked Lilith, "Has it been three days already?"

Melissa complained, "If you didn't open the door, we would have broken it down."

Lilith also said, "We're about to arrive in Delan Becca. Why did you sleep for so long?"

Hearing Lilith's words, Su Li's stomach growled, and he apologized, "I'm sorry, I've been busy in the slave carriage for several days, and I was too tired when I went to Budra."

"Let's go, as long as you're fine. After lunch, we will arrive in the capital." Lilith said.

Following the Mechanical Heart Squad into the banquet hall, Su Li found that besides the Mechanical Heart Squad, God's envoy Ackman Hoynes and four young nobles were also looking at him with friendly eyes. In just a few days of getting along, Su Li had become acquainted with many people on this train.

"Alright, everyone is finally here. Let the banquet begin." Ackman Hoynes clapped his hands and announced with a smile.

Su Li felt even more embarrassed. He didn't expect that all the nobles in this carriage were waiting for him to start the banquet. He touched his head and sat down at the table with Lilith, whispering, "Why is it so grand? If I had known, you could have just come to my room and called me."

Lilith handed him a hot towel to wipe his hands and smiled, "You are now a VIP of the Steam and Machinery Church. With that VIP ticket in your hand, your treatment is naturally much higher than other nobles. Besides, don't you know how powerful the Grace of God is? If you don't open the door, not only me, but even someone more powerful wouldn't be able to leave without going through the door."

Hearing Lilith's words, Su Li suddenly remembered that he still had a universal VIP ticket for the entire continent. It was said that except for the Duke and above, this kind of ticket couldn't be bought with gold pounds. It showed how much the God's envoy Ackman Hoynes valued him. In other words, perhaps what he saw was not Su Li, but the disciple of the Bishop of the Dark Night, the number one person under the starry sky.The banquet was quite lavish. Not only did it feature the unique delicacies of the Dark Forest, but it also offered some exquisite dishes. Several types of Transcendent magical beast meat, decontaminated and cooked, had a unique flavor that made Su Li, who was famished, eat with great relish.

As the meal was almost over, the train began to slow down. Many nobles started to exchange business cards, while some returned to their compartments to pack their luggage. As a privileged individual, Su Li, who was treated differently by God's envoy Ackman Hoynes, was quite conspicuous. A few astute nobles took the opportunity to hand their business cards to the elusive Su Li, warmly inviting him to visit their estates. After thanking each of them, Su Li followed Lilith back to their compartment to pack their luggage.

The royal city of Delan Becca, the extraordinary battle of the seven churches, Su Li was filled with anticipation.
