Age of Heroes, ten consecutive guarantees

"I really didn't expect to meet Mr. Bai. It's an unexpected surprise."

Walking on the road carrying the cake, Frederica's steps were obviously much lighter.

"I'm also surprised that we are so destined." Bai Yu touched his chin: "The last time we met was more than a year ago, right?"

"Yes." Frederica blinked her beautiful eyes: "I thought Mr. Bai had returned to Daxia long ago."

She paused for a moment, lowered her head and thanked him: "Thank you very much, Mr. Bai, for your help just now. If it weren't for you, I would have made a fool of myself."

"It's just a cake."

"This is related to my face and evaluation. Having a distinguished gentleman come forward for me can also improve my social evaluation." Frederica raised her eyes: "If you don't mind, would you like to go? A guest at my house? Although Orlando is no longer what it used to be, delicious black tea can still be served."

Bai Yu followed the good advice: "That's fine, I'm just looking for a place to stay."

In fact, the two of them are not very familiar.

Bai Yu was unilaterally grateful to Frederica for saving her life, but Fleur knew very little about him.

There were very few common topics between the two of them. After a few words of conversation, Bai Yu naturally moved on to the other people.

"I remember you should be in your third year at the Royal Academy now?"

"Well, I was promoted to third grade not long ago." Frederica said: "Third year students have the right to move freely outside the school and do not need to be subject to strict supervision."

"Then do your roommates know about your situation?"

"They are also busy with their own affairs. Although we maintain communication with each other through letters, we are far apart and I have no chance to seek help."

Frederica held her forehead and directly told her her embarrassment and dilemma: "I tried to develop some contacts before, but I can't help at the moment."

It is better to show off one's cards directly than to conceal it.

She told a slight lie here, because her self-esteem was very strong, so it was difficult for her to ask Angelica and Paige for help. She tried to get out of the current predicament by relying on her own abilities.

If Bai Yu had not broken her, Frederica would not have been able to admit it directly and generously. The main reason was the coincidence and his helping hand.

Even if Fleur had a strong sense of self-esteem, she would not be so stupid and pedantic as to refuse the helping hand that was offered to her.

Orlando's home is located in a wealthy area. Since it is a wealthy area, the public security environment is naturally much better.

At least the huge mansion of the Orlando family has not been painted with the word 'pay back', nor has it been temporarily mortgaged, proving that it is still some distance away from complete bankruptcy.

There were few servants and attendants left in the house, only Frederica, an old housekeeper, a cook and a maid.

Trees falling and hozens scattering are probably such a bleak scene.

Frederica herself made black tea and put it on the table. She put the red velvet cake on a plate and brought it to her. She cut off a piece with a knife and fork and put it in her mouth. She immediately showed an intoxicated look, and immediately noticed the young man's slight performance. The corners of his eyes and cheeks were slightly red as he said, "To tell you the truth, I haven't had such delicious cakes in almost two months."

"Is it that bad?"

"I don't have much business acumen. In the past, my father was responsible for controlling the family business. But since he fell into a deep sleep, the family business has naturally plummeted, and some of the contacts in the past are no longer useful." Fleur sighed quietly: "This world is really bad. It’s cruel, everyone will compliment you when you need it, but when you don’t need it, you will discard it like a pair of worn-out shoes.”

Bai Yu drank the black tea and said, "But you don't look stressed."

Fleur shook her head: "I'm just pretending to be strong. In fact, I haven't had a good night's sleep in a long time."

She wiped the corners of her eyes, showing a fragile expression as if nothing had happened.

"Showing weakness to the enemy is a good way." Bai Yu put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "Unlike you more than a year ago, Ms. Fleur, you are very confident now."

Fleur closed one eye and smiled playfully: "As expected, I can't hide it from Mr. Bai. I don't want to keep performing at all times. It's too tiring..."

"And I'm not lying just now. I really don't have the talent for business. Orlando's situation is also very bad. If my father sleeps for another month, maybe we will be completely bankrupt."

"It's just that I am confident and optimistic about my bright future, so I believe..."

She sat dignifiedly and raised her chin slightly: "Even if I lose something now, I will definitely get it back in the future."

In the past, Frederica's biggest wish was to graduate from the Royal Academy as an outstanding graduate, then work in the Roman government, gain status and be respected.

But now she has just entered the third grade and is already a peak second-level mage. It is almost certain that she will become a great mage before graduation.

In the social environment of Rome, her future was already guaranteed by the royal family and the church.

Mages are rarer than knights, and she is also a psychic mage, not a civil engineering type who needs to be dusted, and has very broad employment prospects.

Therefore, the pressure that Frederica felt was not heavy. Even if she lost her family fortune, she would be able to get it all back after graduation.

Speaking of this, Fleur's eyes flickered slightly: "Actually, compared to my situation, Paige, Angelica and Alisee are more troublesome."

"What should I say?" Bai Yu said seriously.

"Angelica was forced to get married by her family." Fleur fiddled with the fork and looked at the tea in the teacup: "She seems to be forced to get married, but she is not willing to do it, and the whole city is in trouble; Paige is also called Back home, the Vampire Clan has a lot of rules, but as for Elysee..."

"I don't know where she is, and the letters between Elyse and me suddenly stopped."

"Suddenly?" Bai Yu raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah." Fleur said worriedly: "I wrote to Angelica and Paige, but I didn't receive a reply. They may know something, but they are too worried to contact me at the moment."

Bai Yu leaned back on the chair and considered the question: "I remember that Elysee has a very good relationship with that saint. Maybe she will know..."

"Are you talking about Saint Jeanne with a holy appearance?" Frederica smiled bitterly: "Elysee broke off contact with her half a year ago, and no one knows why."

"half year ago?"

"Well, it was very sudden. I asked, but I didn't get an answer. Not long after, Jeanne was transferred back to the church headquarters. There should be no correspondence between the two parties."

Bai Yu remembered the last time he mentioned to Elise that Jeanne betrayed the church for her.

This is probably the reason why the two broke up, and it was Elyse who unilaterally announced the end of their friendship.

With her somewhat withdrawn temperament, she could really do such a thing.

This girl's solitary character is really not an ordinary trouble.

However, at least I found out that she was not in the Royal Academy. If I want to find someone from now on, I can only find someone through the Chronicle of Heroes.

Bai Yu added: "You just mentioned that your father's condition is not good?"

"Yes, I have been sleeping for some reason." Frederica nodded.

"Aren't you worried?"

"I was very anxious last month, but I have put it aside this month." Fleur said calmly: "I have invited many mages to look at it, but I don't know the reason. The pastor of the church will regularly perform a life salute for him to ensure his The body remains active, but if he sleeps like this, he doesn’t know when he will wake up... I have tried my best, and the rest depends on whether his own will to survive is strong enough."

It was a bit strange, but Bai Yu stopped asking no more questions.

Afterwards, he stayed in the guest room for a night at Fleur's invitation, thinking about where he should go next.

[Login to ‘Four Hells’]

[Team: Editor of Destiny, Shadow Twins...]

Suddenly, a red font prompt popped up.

[Unable to select ‘Gorgon’]

[It has been confirmed that the heroic spirit is in a special plot stage]

[Event triggered]

【Trace of the Witch】

[Find the Gorgon and complete this special plot]

[Reward: Heroic Spirit Contract Card]

A series of prompts appeared in front of my eyes.

Bai Yu couldn't help but be surprised. Originally, he just stopped by to take a look at Elysee, but why did he suddenly complete a main quest?

The original attempt to get hold of Michael's right wrist was already a test of his brain cells.

Well, now there is one more event.

"Did I deliberately go five hundred years ago to do a mission?"

Bai Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and then fell into deep thought.

This is the first time that the 'Chronicle of Heroes' has failed.

Although it is not a good sign, there must be a reason.

Even Destiny Weaving couldn't be opened. This was the first time he encountered it.

Then he couldn't help but think of a similar topic he had talked with a programmer friend in his previous life.

Programmers say that if you find that an original function cannot run, then nine times out of ten there is something wrong with the underlying Shishan code, and the basic operating logic is hedging or overriding. For example, if you want to Eat something salty, but your roommate wants to eat something bland, so he asks you to bring food back to a restaurant far away, but you plan to go to the cafeteria. At this time, you will answer him, "There is only a cafeteria, love." To eat or not to eat'.

This is the power of the underlying operating logic. It has absolute priority. The unruly son can not eat, but the father cannot go hungry!

In other words, the priority of the current ‘weaving of fate’ is lower than the priority of the current ‘event’.

The reason why this kind of underlying operating logic problem occurs may be because...

Time travel.

Bai Yu knew very well that he was not in the past time and space, but had arrived five hundred years ago.

So, having arrived in Rome five hundred years ago, does that mean that I was originally one of the participants in history?

Is Destiny Weaving not working because I have to finish the current script?

Is it because he has become a link in his destiny?

I have become a member of the play, right?

Bai Yu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, all kinds of speculation made him a little irritable.

Just as he was contemplating with his eyes closed, he suddenly heard movement outside the door.

The door was pushed open a crack, and then someone walked in. His steps were light and his bare feet stepped on the carpet.

assassin?

still……

Bai Yu soon realized that this was not the case, because the quilt was lifted, and a soft body with a slightly cold body temperature but a fast heartbeat got in.

His fingers were grasped by the smooth and soft hand of the other hand.

When he turned his face to the side, he met a pair of eyes that shone with blue light in the moonlight.

"What are you doing? Ms. Fleur, I can't afford to pay for your reputation..."

"It is Orlando's family motto to let the guests return home with great enjoyment." She said without confidence.

"..."

"I've liked you for a long time." She continued: "Really..."
