Chen Lun declined Maledice's warm invitation and did not stay to dine.
He said that he is now anxious to hand over the materials to the "organization" and will contact the other party as soon as possible after the matter is over to help treat his granddaughter's illness.
After he leaves.
The three people in the box were silent for a long time.
"Mr. Maledice, let him go like this. What if he deceives you?"
Siebert said with a worried look on his face.
Maledius lowered his eyes expressionlessly, and after a few seconds, he sighed.
"What can we do if we keep him?"
Siebert was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what his old boss meant.
The other party is an extraordinary person in the mysterious field and a member of an extraordinary organization. The three ordinary people really have nothing to do with each other.
"This is the helplessness of mortals..."
Pompeii couldn't help but think of the extraordinary events his family had experienced in Amber City, and sighed with emotion.
If Mr. Jack hadn't come to the rescue at that time, their family would have been unfortunately killed.
"I hope he won't lie to me, otherwise... even if he sacrifices his face and goes to find my old friends, we must send out the extraordinary people from the shelter to suppress them!"
Maledice said with a tired look.
At this time, the waiter knocked on the door with food.
"Eat first, you two have worked hard, running around with me, an old guy."
Maledius asked the waiter to come in, then pointed to the food on the table and said to Pompey and Sibert.
"Old General, if it hadn't been for your attention and promotion, Sibert wouldn't be where he is today...doing these trivial things for you is nothing."
Siebert said with a smile.
Viscount Pompeii ate his steak and expressed some words of gratitude to Maledius.
The old man smiled and said nothing.
The three of them were eating, but Pompeii and Sibert sighed secretly at the same time.
They had already seen that Mr. Maledice was in a state of panic because of his granddaughter.
Even finding such an illegal supernatural organization involves worshiping a secret sect that is suspected of being an evil god... This is a typical behavior of seeking medical treatment in a hurry.
But it was hard for them to say anything, because Maledius would not listen.
My old boss has always been a stubborn and stubborn person.
"I just hope that little Ruiyin can really be rescued."
Pompey thought.
Outside the hotel building.
Across the street, under a tree, there was a figure hiding.
Chen Lun leaned against the big tree and looked at the makeup mirror in his hand, which clearly showed the scene of Maledice having a meal.
He didn't stay away at all, but hid here to eavesdrop on intelligence.
He heard every word of their conversation just now.
"Um……"
Chen Lun pondered.
"Let's follow them back to their residence and take a look."
Although he got the Sunset Chrysanthemum, he still wanted to continue observing to see if he could get more information about the "Crysalis of the End".
"First Evolution"

late at night.
Maledius, surrounded by Pompey and Sibert, returned to a villa in the center of Yellow Iron.
Chen Lun pinned on the [black pattern cufflinks] and walked into the gate of the manor as if there was no one else around.
After he watched the three people enter the villa, he came to the other side of the building and looked up at a window on the fourth floor above.
There's still a light on there.
in the room.
Pink wallpaper covers the walls with some lovely flowers painted on them.
An ugly girl who was as fat as a ball was sitting on the princess's bed and was sullen. The tears on her face had not dried yet. She had obviously just cried.
Tuk tuk…
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Maledice's tired but doting voice came from outside the door:
"Ruiyin, are you asleep?"
A long while passed.
"I'm already asleep, Grandpa Maledice."
With a few relaxed chuckles, the door was pushed open and Maledius walked in.
"How can you still answer questions when you are asleep? Silly boy...and the lights are not turned off."
The old man looked at the girl on the bed with a loving smile.
Pompeii and Siebert did not come in. They stood at the door, looked at each other, and ignored each other, but their expressions looked dull.
"Grandpa, stop working so hard for me. I've seen your hair turn white again in the past two days."
Ruiyin tilted her head, not wanting Malediz to see the tears on her face.
But how can these hide from the eyes of the old man.
He sighed secretly, but on the surface he was smiling.
"Xiao Ruiyin, don't worry, grandpa has found a way to help you get back to normal... Does your chest still hurt?"
"Um."
The girl nodded slightly.
But she didn't want her grandfather to worry, so she shook her head again.
"Just a little bit, nothing."
Maledice took the girl's hand comfortingly and said gently:
"The pain will be gone soon, and Ruiyin will be able to return to her previous cute and beautiful appearance. She can go out with friends and no longer have to worry about other people's opinions."
"Well, Grandpa, I believe you."
Ruiyin nodded.
"It's very late, go to bed, kid."
Maledice stood up and turned off the light in the girl's room.
"Good night, little Seoyin."
"Good night...Grandpa."
The door slowly closed, and in her last sight, the girl noticed that her grandfather's back was stooped. She held back her tears and lay down slowly.
In this way, tears will not flow out.
Her parents died due to the war when she was very young, and her grandfather had always brought her up. He was also her only relative.
But because she was playful, she touched strange objects that she shouldn't have touched, and contracted a strange disease, which turned her into the disgusting appearance she is now, and she also made her grandfather tired of running around for her every day.
Guilt and uneasiness lingered in Ruiyin's heart.
She even thought about getting over it, but she didn't want to see her grandfather sad.
The complicated emotions made it difficult for her to fall asleep. She thought of her past self, her friends in the college, and some places she wanted to go but failed to go...
suddenly.
She felt that the moonlight shining into the room dimmed, and something seemed to be blocking the window sill.
After struggling to get up and take a look, she almost screamed.
A figure was sitting on the windowsill, seemingly still watching her quietly.
If you look closely, you will see that it is a handsome young man in a black hat, holding a beautiful silver cane in his hand.
"First... sir? Who are you?"
Ruiyin has been very courageous since she was a child, and she has not been afraid.
Besides, what's more terrifying than a strange disease? You're going to die anyway, right...
"Oh, sweet little girl, I am an angel of the foreign god. You can call me Mr. Black Messenger."
Chen Lun looked at Rui Yin and deliberately pretended to have a strange singing accent.
"Black Messenger...sir?"
Ruiyin whispered in her heart that she had never heard of foreign gods and black messengers, but she still couldn't refuse the other party's appearance.
After watching it again and again, I uncontrollably developed a liking for this man.
"Is the foreign god an evil god? And you look different from the angels in fairy tales..."
Ruiyin asked hesitantly.
"Oh, of course the God of Foreigners is not an evil god. She protects all wandering foreigners... As for me, you see."
Chen Lun looked at the girl, who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and became amused. He jumped into the room and snapped his fingers.
Two pairs of colorful scale wings emitting a pure white halo appeared behind him.
"Wow!"
Ruiyin exclaimed and then covered his mouth.
A few seconds passed.
"You...you are really an angel, what beautiful wings!"
Chen Lun folded his wings, smiled slightly, then pointed with his cane, and a chair flew over and landed in front of the bed.
He sat gently on it.
"Mr. Black Messenger, aren't you afraid of what I look like now?"
Ruiyin tilted his head and asked sheepishly.
"No……"
Chen Lun smiled slightly.
"Appearances are just illusion, your heart is pure and beautiful."
Hearing what he said, Ruiyin laughed happily and became even more fond of the black messenger.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Chen Lun asked Rui Yin a few questions.
The girl already believed that Chen Lun was the "angel" of the foreign god. At the same time, because of her good impression, she felt a little close to him, so she answered those questions obediently.
It turned out that the reason why she looked like this was because a month ago, when she went out to play with her friends, she met a strange businessman selling toys.
At that time, Ruiyin was attracted by a black rose ornament on the toy stall. After buying it home, she accidentally pricked her finger by the sharp thorns on the ornament. Only then did her appearance begin to change, and even her heart suffered severe pain.
She usually likes occult things and has collected many related small objects. She even organized a occult society with her friends.
But I never thought that I would actually encounter something unfortunate in the mysterious realm.
She did not dare to tell her grandfather the truth, and even hid the black rose ornament in the garden.
"Little girl, I know everything about what happened to you... Now, please have a good sleep. Maybe you will get better in a few days."
Chen Lun put this information into his heart and then smiled.
"Mr. Black Messenger, do you want to use magic to change me for the better after I fall asleep?"
Ruiyin has a fat and ugly face, but has a pair of bright eyes.
Chen Lun couldn't help but be stunned.
"Hehe, angels in fairy tales help others like this."
Ruiyin said.
Chen Lun smiled and deceived kindly:
"What a smart little girl...because I still need to chant a spell. This spell cannot be heard by mortals, otherwise I will be punished by the gods."
"ah……"
After hearing this, Ruiyin quickly lay down and closed his eyes.
She said:
"Mr. Black Messenger, I'm going to sleep now. I can't let you be punished..."
After a few seconds, Ruiyin showed worry on his face.
"Mr. Black Messenger... you will consume your strength when you use magic. I know, well, in fact, if it hurts you, don't help me. It doesn't matter..."
She was still talking quietly.
Chen Lun smiled slightly and sighed secretly:
'What a kind little girl. '
He used the hypnotic power of [Siren's Song] and gently whistled a melody, causing Ruiyin to gradually fall into sleep.
"I'll have to aggrieve you for a few days... I can't alert you yet."
Chen Lun murmured, turned around and jumped out from the window sill.
He has found out that Rui Yin's problem is indeed a curse, and is very similar to Noah's situation, which makes him a little confused.
To confirm, he dug up the black rose ornament under a tree in the garden based on the clues provided by Ruiyin.
"really……"
Looking at the prompt box that popped up on the panel, Chen Lun narrowed his eyes.
[Extraordinary Thing-Black Rose]
Item Description: A cursed object that contains a hint of blasphemy and looks like a black rose.
It seems like a funeral flower decorating a certain holy sword, contaminated by the blasphemous power of the holy sword.
