Chapter 243 Keeping an Appointment


Chapter 243: Going to the Appointment

“Are you finally willing to go home for dinner?”

As soon as Milo entered the house, he was insulted by Emma.

He patted Emma's forehead twice: "Didn't anyone remind you that your tone of voice is like that kind of little resentful woman who was ignored?"

Emma sat where she was, Looking straight at Milo, too lazy to speak.

Milo dove into the room and started rummaging around.

......

Five minutes later, Milo left the residential street carrying little Finn's schoolbag.

Originally, he thought that old Xion would follow him, but Kang grabbed old Xion and insisted on keeping him for a drink.

What surprised Milo was that Old Xion really agreed.

"You are busy with your business."

These are the original words of old Xion.

Milo took a few pieces of bread from the kitchen and stuffed it into his mouth, then walked out the door without stopping.

Outskirts of the city, downstream of the canal.

Milo led the lost Sansa to the side of the church bridge.

It was already evening, and the scarlet color of the sunset after the rain looked particularly dazzling, as if someone had poured buckets of blood on the horizon.

Speaking of which, a fulfilling day is coming to an end.

Milo has missed several meals in a row, but fortunately his enhanced body can withstand such high-intensity consumption. Although his stomach still feels empty after stuffing a few slices of bread. .

However, the current trouble has not been completely resolved, and Milo is not in the mood to sit down and have a good meal.

He didn't want old Theon to be so neurotic.

......

As agreed before, Dillashaw had already been waiting for Milo by the river in advance.

This time he did not bring any other officials or entourage, and stood alone by the river.

"Has the pastor gone to rest?"

Milor led Sansa to the river bank. He turned his head and glanced at the water downstream of the canal.

"The priest is unwell."

Dillashaw nodded.

His eyes stayed on Sansa behind Milo from beginning to end.

This is the first time Dillashaw has seen the so-called dependents. In his understanding, although these loyal believers who are attached to the ancients are not three-headed and six-armed, they must be somewhat different in appearance. In ordinary people's place.

But the truth is, Sansa doesn't look different.

She is a genuine human being. Even because of some mental blows, her current state looks very heartbreaking. Without considering her family status, it is difficult not to look at this pitiful look. It reminds me of an image of a weak woman who has been bullied.

"This is..."

Dillashaw tentatively asked a question that everyone knew well.

“The dependents of Glaaki are the instigators of this incident. I will not introduce them in detail.”

Milo had other things to do, so he was too lazy to waste time.

Dillashaw nodded: "It's in the water behind you... I thought you wouldn't keep your promise."

To be honest, Dillashaw was originally planning to enter The city is looking for Milo.

Because from his perspective, Milo is not the kind of person who follows the rules. There is a high probability that he will shoot Sansa to death because he cannot swallow that breath. So Dillashaw was somewhat surprised to see Milo sending the person to the outskirts of the city intact.

Of course, in addition to being surprised, he was also curious about what Milo was planning.

To put it bluntly, he still didn’t believe Milo could be so easy to talk to, so he just sent back the culprit of everything.

"If you keep telling me, I will regret it." Milo laughed strangely and glanced back at Sansa.

"You are a law enforcement officer after all. Even if you execute the death penalty on the culprit here, what can I say." Dillashaw spread his hands and said that he had no intention of disobeying Milo. , just reminded in a low voice: "It's just that you have to deal with the trouble after doing it."

"You are quite good at picking yourself off." Milo showed a disdainful smile He said calmly: "But I want to correct one thing. The culprit is not her, but the thing hiding in the water."

"Everything has its own laws of survival, and it just follows its own way." Dillashaw muttered.

"You're right, you're right." Milo shrugged. He didn't intend to waste his time to refute Dillashaw's words, but just insulted him slightly: "Your tone of voice is becoming more and more like a flute. "Blessed."

...

"Gululu..."

At this time, bubbles began to bubble on the water in the canal in front of everyone.

Milo and Dillashaw both knew that the guy was about to appear, and they both kept their mouths shut.

The first thing to emerge from the water were three yellow eyes, with long eye stalks at the end, almost as thick as a human arm.

This is the first time Dillashaw has looked into the eyes of the ancient one he knows.

It is impossible to say that he is not nervous. Although he is still calm and calm on the outside, only he knows how much cold sweat breaks out in his palms.

And soon, half of the head of the giant creature on the water surface had been exposed. It was an egg-shaped creature with a swollen body. It had an extremely ugly and blasphemous face, and its soft and foamy skin was like It was like a rotten animal carcass that had been soaked in water for too long, exuding a disgusting stench.

The most tingling thing is the countless sharp and slender thorns exposed on the surface of the body. Its shape is the same as its function, giving people a sense of fatal crisis.

......

Dillashaw's heartbeat was accelerating violently.

The words Mr. Defoe said kept echoing in his mind -

"Nanwei City is a complex city. Because of where we are, there will be more and more people in the future. The shadow chose this place as a gap to enter the world. Glaaki is only the first, but it will never be the last. Your responsibility is very heavy."

Will Nanwei City face more ancient creatures like this one in the future?

Why do these dark shadows that have survived for countless years get close to the golden tree...

...

Even though there are all kinds of doubts in my heart, Dilla at this time Xiao could only put those questions aside for the time being and face the scene in front of him cautiously.

He knew how deadly the Ancient One could be.

The respected Reverend Defoe only exchanged a few words with the other party, as if he had aged more than ten years.

If it happened again, Dillashaw wouldn't know how to deal with it.

Suddenly, Dillashaw saw an arm swinging back and forth in front of him twice:

"Hey, what are you thinking about?"

Milo turned his head sideways. He squinted at Dillashaw:

"I thought you were attracted by the dream."

After confirming that Dillashaw was fine, Milo waved his hand towards the big man Glachi in the canal:

"The person you want I brought it back to you! You should keep your promise!"

...

In the turbid river water, Grachi slowly walked towards the river bank. Coming closer, it opened its bloody mouth.
