Chapter 154 The Descendant of the Wolf Family
"What a surprise, Mr. Jack."
Byers said.
"I admire your fearlessness and suddenness. Is it because you can see your own destiny? Or have you anticipated today's encounter and the coming of the curse?"
He shook his head slightly and leaned on the sofa.
His eyes moved to Chen Lun, and his tone was calm:
"Don't worry, Mr. Jack, I came here because of the divination commission."
Chen Lun looked at him silently, wondering why this [Sequence 5] boss suddenly came to him and gave him a so-called test.
"What do you wish to divine? Mr. Charles."
he asked.
Byers suddenly smiled and asked:
"Can you divine what I want to divine?"
"This is a matter of mind-reading, not divination, Mr. Charles."
Chen Lun shook his head slightly.
"But I can guess a little bit...maybe it has something to do with the sun, the moon and the empire?"
Charles' pupils shrank slightly, which was keenly captured by Chen Lun.
'It seems that Byers has indeed been hunted now... I just don't know how long this escape has been, or has it just begun? ’
Chen Lun thought to himself.
A trace of loneliness appeared on Biles' face, but it was quickly replaced by a smile.
"Perhaps this is the guidance of fate, just like I didn't believe it before, but now I firmly believe it..."
His body began to lean forward.
Chen Lun could even smell the fragrance of the yellow orchid on his chest.
"Mr. Jack, please help me divine whether the descendants of the 'Wolf Family' are in Amber City..."
Charles spoke.
His eyes were staring straight at Chen Lun.
'Wolfe...? ’
Chen Lun's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he remembered the false identity he had asked the Iron Fist Gang to create in order to enter the inner city... Floy's name as a noble lady seemed to have been borrowed from the identity of the descendant of the "Wolf" family.
‘Byerswolf... Could it be that this black knight is the person from the declining family? ’
Chen Lun was shocked.
"Introduce yourself, Byerswolf. This is my real name."
Byers smiled slightly.
"...This body is not mine. He died of a heart attack a few days ago. I just borrowed it temporarily. Mr. Jack, please help me divine the whereabouts of my clan members."
He raised his hand to signal, hoping that Chen Lun would start divination.
Chen Lun took a deep breath, took out the deck of playing cards he got from the forest cabin, shuffled the cards, and fanned out the playing cards on the coffee table with a wave of his hand.
"Please draw three at will."
Chen Lun said.
With a smile on her face, Biles drew the first, middle and last card.
Chen Lun took it and turned it over to show it.
They are "Q of Spades", "K of Clubs" and "Q of Clubs".
"The three suits are all black, and the divination prediction is negative... Mr. Byers, the descendant of the Wolf family may not be in Amber City."
Chen Lun said in a deep voice.
Byers stared at the three playing cards and said calmly:
"If you are really not here, you should say that there is no other descendant in this world except me... because I am indeed the only one left in the Wolf family.
But I can feel that Wolf's name is being used by its descendants, and she is here. ”
He raised his head and looked at Chen Lun.
"Even, she is right next to you, Mr. Jack."

Chen Lun left the foil fighting club.
Before getting on the carriage, he stopped and looked back at a window on the third floor.
The curtains there were slowly drawn.
"Huh..."
Chen Lun let out a sigh of relief.
Although Byers only communicated with himself in the body of an ordinary person, the vague aura of the other party made him feel a little depressed.
Just now, Byers said that he had no ill intentions and expressed his gratitude for the divination.
He said that he might stay in Amber City for a while, and if necessary next time, he would ask him for a divination commission.
Chen Lun recalled the three cards used in poker divination.
‘In fact, there should be another interpretation...’
he pondered.
"Q of spades" may represent Floy, "K of clubs" represents Biles, and "Q of clubs" is Biles' late wife, "Orchid" Ogot.
The most important reason why Byers was hunted down by three extraordinary forces was because of his deceased wife.
'The plum blossom symbolizes friendship, fame and popularity...it is also the clover, which represents luck. ’
Chen Lun thought to himself.
‘Club K and Club Q…will Biles and Youlan be my help in the future? ’
He doesn't feel any ill will from Byers for the time being, but at least, from the current point of view, the other party is a friend rather than an enemy.
‘We can consider operating the Byers route well...’
Chen Lun made a decision.
‘And Floy, is she really a descendant of the Wolf family? Could there be such a coincidence? ’
Shaking his head, he was not willing to believe it, but he was not sure because fate was often more dramatic.
Immediately, he stepped on the step of the carriage and got in.
The carriage drove away slowly.
The third floor of the Foil Fighting Club.
In the reception room.
Byers stood quietly by the window, staring at the curtains. It seemed that he was observing the carriage downstairs in the dark through the curtains.
"Youlan, all this is guided by the moonlight, letting me know that the last clan member is here..."
Byers took off the yellow orchid stuck in the breast pocket of his shirt.
He held the flower stem with his fingers and stared at the flowers affectionately, and he said slowly.
"The Wolf family will not die because of me, because I feel that the aura of the ancestors is on her body... And this Mr. Jack deliberately concealed her existence in the divination and seemed to care about her, which is good. ”
The orchid swayed slightly, as if in response.
Byers smiled softly.
"An Xin, I'm very familiar with the members of 'Purple Moonlight'. They can't find us... As for your former comrades, those 'Lamp Keepers', I try not to take the initiative...
But the ‘executioners’ in the asylum, haha, let’s kill as many as they come. ”
Byers suddenly remembered something.
"Ah... Oops... I seem to have forgotten to pay that Mr. Jack for the divination commission."
Orchids sway.
Byers suddenly understood, nodded and said:
"You are right, Youlan, you can invite him to the club in a few days and give him a VIP card for free...I am the boss here now, am I not?"

evening.
When Noah returned to Jack's Manor, he found that all the team members had arrived and were all sitting on the sofa in the living room, seemingly waiting for something.
"Ah, Noah, you are finally back!"
Maggie jumped up from the sofa, walked over with a flushed face, and grabbed his thick arm.
"Come on, follow me upstairs."
"Go upstairs?"
Noah looked confused.
Maggie's excitement did not diminish, and she patted his arm with a snap.
"Yes, go upstairs, and then enter the room to do experiments! I think you can definitely complete the testing work of the 'Great Potion'... This is a project that the leader attaches great importance to!"
"No...I don't want to. Mr. Jack told me to stay away from you."
Noah scratched his head, smiled shyly, and let Maggie pull, his feet motionless.
"The leader is so disgusting, he actually said bad things about me behind my back! Hey... Noah, have you been promoted to [Sequence 8]?!"
Maggie said in surprise.
Noah looked embarrassed and nodded silently.
"Yeah."
The other members were shocked.
Unexpectedly, among their group of [Sequence 9], Noah was the first to be promoted. But then I thought about it, as the young master of the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce, I must have a lot of extraordinary knowledge... After so many years of accumulation, it's time for promotion.
Immediately, a sense of urgency arose within me.
You can't be too complacent with the status quo, and you need to improve your own strength as soon as possible so as not to hold back the team.
Barton specially came from Xiashuitan in the outer city today to attend the team's dinner for the meeting that the team leader would hold after the dinner.
He and Golov looked at each other. As the remnants of the circus, the two of them were obviously not as important as Maggie. Naturally, I was even more nervous inside, fearing that I would not be able to keep up with the team and would be kicked away.
Floy sat quietly on the sofa, and Connie read to her quietly.
At this time, Chen Lun came down from upstairs, smiled at everyone, and said:
"Now that Noah is back, let's start dinner."
"Leader."
"Mr. Jack."
"..."
Everyone greeted him respectfully, and Chen Lun nodded and waved his hand in response.
Tonight's dinner will naturally be cooked by Floy himself.
Everyone had a great time eating, especially Noah. The empty plates in front of him were stacked up at a speed visible to the naked eye. Floy had prepared this in advance, otherwise the whole table might not be enough for him alone.
Chen Lun looked at him and sighed in his heart.
‘It can be said that [Flesh and Blood Faction] is the most suitable sequence path for him. ’
Now that he has been promoted to [Gourmet], he can enhance his physical fitness through eating. With Noah's intensity and efficiency in cooking, it won't be long before his strength and endurance will reach the low-sequence threshold.
Continuing to further develop his extraordinary power, he can even absorb the attacks of other extraordinary beings and amplify himself on the spot.
"Come, let's have a drink."
Chen Lun took out two bottles of red wine from the blood poem ring.
In order to increase the atmosphere of the team, he would bring out extraordinary wine every time at such a gathering.
"Praise to the leader!"
Maggie cheered happily.
She quickly took the bottle of wine, pulled out the cork, and poured herself a glass. While drinking, his eyes still reluctantly moved away from Noah.
With such a strong body, after drinking the ‘Beef Powerful Bottle’, the effect will definitely be very good...?
she thought.
"After dinner, I will conduct a practical test on you, so that you can have a clearer understanding of your strength..."
Chen Lun picked up the wine glass and took a sip of milk.
"Of course, this is also a good way to enhance mutual affection and communication."
All the circus members looked at each other.
"Practical test...?!" (End of this chapter)
