I really only stop

From the meaning of this, could it be that the copy of Sanctuary has already been opened for us?

"—By the way, Lucy."

Just as Lu Xi was idly thinking, Faron suddenly handed him a paper document with a natural expression:

"After your house was destroyed, the guild held an emergency meeting. We all agreed that it was the guild's negligence for not surveying the surrounding environment in advance. The relevant compensation work has been done, and you just need to sign."

compensate?signature?

Suspiciously taking the document in Faron's hand, Lu Xi did see the words [House Evacuation Compensation Agreement] written on it.

This, is this the legendary demolition clause? !

The memory on the earth was instantly activated, and Lu Xi, who was refreshed, flipped through several pages of documents in his hand.

Replace the house with a better location and a more refined style for free; compensate the loss in this incident by the square meter; the decoration, relocation and furniture purchases are all packaged by the guild with the highest standards, and...

Glancing at the compensation amount marked at the end, which was even ten times the original purchase price, Lu Xi couldn't help but breathe heavily:

"This, is this true?"

"Of course, the Adventurer's Guild is a very reliable organization."

Fallon showed a reliable smile at the right time: "We will take full responsibility this time, and we will definitely not let you suffer. You can sign with confidence!"

"it is good--"

Just as Lu Xi was about to say yes, a surge of vigilance from the bottom of his heart made him shut his mouth.

Nothing to do with intuition, intuition and such mysterious things, at this time, he just simply thought of all kinds of deep pit terms on the earth that can make Party B bleed, and as a modern person, [signing a contract PTSD] broke out.

After hesitating for a while, he regained his composure:

"Hey, let me take another look."

PS2: (hint)

Chapter 183 Lu Xi Used See Through!

The agreement in front of him is indeed very tempting, and after a careful look, there is no hidden trap.However, Lu Xi, who had completely calmed down, immediately discovered the problem:

"President, may I ask, after I sign this agreement, who will own the original house?"

"cough."

Hearing this, Faron, who had just put on a look of [I'm an honest man, why would I cheat you?] suddenly froze, and rubbed his nose unnaturally:

"Well... of course it was handed over to the guild for recycling and management. This place has been turned into ruins by the sudden arrival of Osiris, and it will take a lot of resources to [barely] restore the previous [[-]%] appearance."

The pronunciation of 'reluctantly' and '[-]%' was intentionally emphasized. It seems that my guess has not escaped.

Lu Xi smiled easily and pushed the file back:

"Don't sign."

"Ahahaha~ As expected of Lu Xi, this power of observation is beyond words."

Seeing this scene, Mephis' signature hearty laughter immediately sounded, and he patted Fallon's shoulder, which was frozen in place, with relief:

"I told you that Lu Xi wouldn't be fooled so easily, your plan went bankrupt~"

"Hey, what bankruptcy, why does it feel like you're still happy? A professional twenty-five boy."

Slapping the magician's hand away, Faron turned around and walked to the red dragon Raheem as if angry, and wiped the dragon's saddle pretendingly.

"[Plan]? What plan?"

Celica on the side said that she couldn't understand the intrigue that happened in an instant:

"Is there any problem in the document just shown to Ruo weak hope?"

"There is no problem with the file, it is on the [program]."

Lu Xi shook his head lightly, and explained to Celica: "If I sign that agreement, it means that I lose ownership of everything on this land."

"But, there doesn't seem to be anything important here?"

Nana was also a little confused at this time: "The house and the items inside were destroyed by the beam of light, and now there are only some carvings of flower pots in the garden."

In the emergency situation of Sky City's sudden fall, except for some important things in the house that were rescued by Mamayi with quick eyesight and quick hands, the rest of them were all wiped out by the bombardment of the energy column.Even where the house itself existed had been punched a deep hole.Logically speaking, there shouldn't be anything worthy of Lu Xi being so careful.

"No, no, it's not that simple."

Shaking his head lightly, Lu Xi pointed upward mysteriously:

"Don't forget, there is another [big item] here."

----------

When buying the house in full, Lu Xi, who happened to have money, signed the house purchase contract generously, which clearly stated: [From the day the house payment arrives, all facilities in the manor belong to Mr. Lu Xi 】.

The original meaning of this rule was that since Lu Xi bought the manor, everything in the manor - including furniture, flowers, sculptures and Celica's favorite little swing - belonged to Lu Xi.There is no situation where the door is suddenly pushed open on the second day of check-in, and several burly men tell him 'you only bought the house, we have to take away everything other than the house' while emptying out the things.

That being the case...

Lu Xi turned his head and looked at Mevis, who was overjoyed at seeing Faron deflated: "Mr. Mevis, the ground beacon that summoned Osiris was buried under the manor, so naturally it also belonged to the category I bought at that time. in?"

"um, yes."

Wiping away the tears from his laughter, Mephis coughed lightly: "I'm not afraid to tell you, in fact, Fallon even realized this problem before you. Long before you set off, on the night Osiris just came, he So I sent a message to the emperor in a hurry, wanting to discuss with us the solution to this problem - you have seen through it, hahaha!"

Let’s just say that Uncle Fallon left so simply at that time!Sure enough, I didn't feel safe!

Feeling that Celica next to her was still half-understanding, Lu Xi simply explained the matter in more straightforward words:

"To put it simply, when I bought the house with full payment, I also bought the beacon that was hidden underground at the time, and it was this beacon that summoned Sky City Osiris. Therefore, according to the relevant regulations——"

"—Osiris is also weak and weak?"

Although it was too difficult for Celica to think about the contract issue, her mind immediately turned after she understood:

"That is to say, I can go back to Osiris anytime and eat delicious food until I'm full?"

"Although I feel that you are not pursuing, it is true."

With a triumphant smile, Lu Xi stretched out his hand and rubbed Celica's head: "Don't worry, it's not a problem for such a big city to support you."

"Long live!!!!"

After jumping happily, Celica took Nana's hand and excitedly ran to the pit to look at the underground beacon.

------

"Yeah, it's nice to be young~"

Standing side by side with Lu Xi, looking at the backs of the two girls bouncing away, and glanced at Yuxia who was confirming the Pope's physical condition with Bishop Sutton, Mephis sighed casually:

"Even if they have such a city that can be called [horror], all they think about is eating, drinking and playing-this is the so-called carefree life of young people~"

……

Looking sideways at Memphis' lazy smile that seemed to be pointing at something else, Lu Xi didn't speak.

Seeing his appearance, Mephis was silent for a while before saying:

"...Lu Xi, I hope you don't have any grudges against Faron because of what you just agreed on."

"No, of course not."

Lu Xi shrugged his shoulders: "From the perspective of the president, this sky city is no different from a maze full of treasures. As the leader of the adventurers, he certainly wants to attribute the ownership of Osiris to the guild as much as possible. Then it will be open to other adventurers—how can I be against such Uncle Faron?"

A maze that can be reset to zero is equivalent to an infinite treasure house, and Lu Xi knows this better than anyone else.But under such circumstances, none of the labyrinths were privatized by nobles and rich merchants, but were uniformly opened to adventurers for free. Lu Xi would not believe that there was no effort from the Adventurers' Guild and the Empire behind this.

Instinct to rely on strength to become a member of the vested interests, however, Uncle Faron still gave up his prominent status as the leader of the Dragon Knight Legion, willing to go to Rhine City, where novice adventurers gather, to serve as the guild leader.Among other things, in all fairness, Lu Xi felt that he could not do this.

A visa refusal is a visa refusal, and I am not so narrow-minded as to say that it has any prejudice against Fallon.I don't like the eye shark, your family is something that only the protagonist with the surname Long will do, and we still hope that in the future, you will cheat the elder uncle a lot.

"...I'm not mistaken, your heart and will are beyond ordinary people's tenacity and clarity. Claire is lucky to have a friend like you."

Putting away the lazy smile that was always on his lips, Mephis rarely looked at Lu Xi seriously:

"However, the purpose of what Fallon did just now is not just for others, but also for you."

Chapter 184 Lu Xi's Backing

"for me?"

"Yes. Before answering your question, you must tell me one thing truthfully."

Although the appearance has not changed, Mephis, who has entered the serious mode, seems to be born with an intellectual aura that can see through people's hearts.He stared closely at Lu Xi's eyes, and asked word by word:

"In Sky City, what the hell did you do?"

------------

...Sure enough, I still asked here.

Realizing that this matter is not something that can be easily fooled, Lu Xi took a deep breath, and chose to speak directly:

"You are right, the annihilation cannon was indeed fired by Osiris."

This is a fact that cannot be hidden.Facing Mephis who witnessed the annihilating cannon, Lu Xi couldn't say, 'That is the killing light wave fired at the ground by Tiamat passing by by chance'.

It is no longer a question of whether the lie will be seen through.What if His Excellency Mephis goes home and instigates his daughter Claire to 'don't play with this kind of kid with a brain problem'?Miss Cat Cat is a cute Pikachu that has been outdated for a hundred years. In the future, we will point to Claire, the only colleague we can communicate with, to obtain information about the demon race.

"……Knew it."

Convinced of his inference from Lu Xi's mouth, Memphis sighed long:

"It's a miracle like God's punishment. After thinking about it, only the Osiris around here has this ability."

"You mean that Osiris will emit light, will it have any effect on me?"

Lu Xi scratched his head: "Although the power is stronger than the piercing ray, the Annihilation Cannon is not something that cannot be resisted even if you are fully prepared, and its mobility is far inferior to the forbidden spell that can be made into a scroll. This kind of thing is not so disturbing, is it?"

"[Something like this]??"

Looking at Lu Xi with a face of understatement in shock, Memphis's tone became a little distorted:

"A mobile fortress that has been floating in the air and naturally occupies the right time and place, plus a destructive weapon that instantly deals explosive damage-this is just the part I know so far-are you sure this is just 'something like this'?? "

Ah, it seems that I unconsciously pretended to be a jerk.

Lucy shrank her neck belatedly.

Indeed, the existence of Osiris is like the aerospace aircraft carrier in that famous movie, even slightly surpassing it in terms of functionality and explosive power. If such a thing appeared out of thin air on the territory, it would be troublesome to anyone.

Combined with the words that Mephis said pointedly just now...

Instantly understood what Memphis meant, Lu Xi frowned slightly:

"You mean, there will be forces that will work against me because of this sky city?"

"I can't say that. But what I want to remind you is that the upper and lower limits of human beings are far beyond your imagination."

With a light tap of the staff, the two elements of light and darkness overflowed from the tip of Mephis' staff, and then merged into a piece of chaos without attributes under his exquisite control:

"Falon will put forward a proposal to take back Sky City, which actually has the meaning of protecting you from other forces. Don't look at him, this guy actually cares about the younger generation the most. Whether it's you or not, Yuxia They're fine too."

"I see……"

Glancing at President Faron who was having a loving interaction with the red dragon Raheem from a distance, Lu Xi fell into a short silence.

"—In short, you should think about this matter carefully."

Noticing Lu Xi's expression, Memphis patted him on the shoulder in relief:

"Don't take too much burden. Having the only saint and princess as a teammate in the world is equivalent to the fact that both the empire and the Holy See are standing behind you—with such a big backstage, what fear do you have? The purpose of Faron's doing that is just to save you a little trouble and completely privatize that sky city, you may receive invitations from many forces in a year."

——Yes, it's not because of the fantasy reason of "everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty".In this matter, Fallon and Memphis both considered from the starting point of 'helping Lucy save trouble'.

Having mastered the city of the sky, Lu Xi himself can be regarded as one of the forces.As the head of a faction, foreign affairs, internal affairs, personnel management... there are simply countless things that he needs to consider.

Faron was born to be a hard worker, but on the other hand, Mephis wanted to see how Lu Xi, who was somewhat similar to him in life attitude, would make a choice.

...But Mr. Mevis is right.

After being reminded by Memphis' words, Lu Xi's eyes also lit up.
