Chapter 60

After being upgraded to become a regent, Xiao Zhi's life did not change much, except that he could enter and leave the White Bone Hall at will, and he had an additional lord and pet, the other contents were still the same as before.

Perhaps because of the psychological shadow created by the 600-year separation, Frost always followed Xiao Zhi in Hesse in the first few days.

So something like this often appears:

The regent, dressed in black and wearing a white gauze veil, floated in front to inspect the trade area, followed by a Hessian lord in black armor and a ferocious helmet.

When the two figures appeared in the trade area, the entire trade area suddenly quieted down. Whether it was the undead or the foreigners who came to do business or buy things, they were all as quiet as chickens.

The crowd looked at the two advancing with fear or anxiety, just like poultry waiting to be slaughtered at any time in a restaurant, no one made a sound, and everyone tacitly maintained a motionless posture, as if deeply afraid. Which action caught the attention of the big killing god, and was stabbed by a sudden sword.

This also makes the trade area look like a wax museum during the daily inspection hours.

As a result, the inspection could not go on, because at this time, everyone in the trade area could not even have a normal conversation.

The undead may be excited, speaking incoherently, asking him how he is doing recently, and they will answer "Long live the lord", "I envy the regent" kind of thing. Most of the other races were too frightened to speak, and some of their eyes wandered, erratic, and looked like they were thieves, but in fact they didn't do anything when they checked, they were just frightened.

Faced with this kind of scene, Xiao Zhi felt extremely embarrassed. He had to be thankful that his head was covered with a white gauze, otherwise everyone would notice the twitching expression on his face.

In this regard, Frost said that he was very innocent. He obviously did nothing. Why are these people so timid?

In the end, Xiao Zhi had to stop Frost from following him on inspection, and forcibly ignored his calm, unwilling eyes.

On this day, Xiao Zhi, who did not carry weapons of mass destruction, came to the trade area alone.

The moment the regent appeared, the entire trade area subconsciously stagnated. After confirming that there was no indescribable person behind the regent, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the entire trade area resumed its previous liveliness. .

All kinds of glances fell on Xiao Zhi. Since he became a secretary, there have been many such sights, and Xiao Zhi has long been accustomed to it.

There are also whispering voices from time to time, but the volume is not "whispering" at all:

"You see that's the secretary!"

"I'm already a regent now. I heard that he has officially moved into the White Bone Hall? A lot of furniture has been added to the White Bone Hall, which must have been prepared for him."

"Why did the lord let him go today?"

"I guess he will be captured later, and then by the lord..."

"Hey hey hey..."

Xiao Zhi: "..."

It seems that the undead are still too busy, so Milton can arrange a little more work for them.

Enter the Administration Center.

Xiao Zhi went to Milton first, and Teague was following Milton to learn all kinds of matters needed for government affairs. Because of this guy's various profiteering deeds, Xiao Zhi doubted whether he could become a reliable official, so he also let Milton stare at him by the way,

Inside the office.

Teague held a document in his left hand, and a note full of immortal words in his right hand, and approached Milton: "Mr. Milton, I don't understand this place very well..."

Milton looked up from the paperwork and looked at where Teague indicated: "This is a Hessian saying that means 'nothing is easier than death'."

"Thank you, Mr. Milton." Teague thanked Milton and went back to take notes. He looked very serious, and there were many notebooks on the desk next to him that had been read over and over again. At a glance, he could tell how hard Teague was.

Seeing this joyous scene, Xiao Zhi's heart that had been hanging all the time was also put down.

Because he was finally able to become the official of his dreams, Teague was very serious. Even the always reserved Milton complimented Xiao Zhi on his study progress in private, and expressed his appreciation for the addition of a motivated and smart colleague. Glad.

Teague is not an inherently treacherous and greedy guy. Due to the lack of identity and family power in the Dolly Alliance, he can only pave the way for his dreams by defrauding and collecting money. But in Hesse, when there is a channel to rise through his own efforts, the tenacity and intelligence of Teague's character are perfectly reflected.

He is cunning, slick, and good at reading words, but these are not bad things, or to be a qualified official, these are all advantages. Maybe Teague will be a very good diplomat in the future, not necessarily.

After that, Xiao Zhi and Milton communicated about various matters in Hesse recently.

The Long Night badges created for the players have all been distributed, and the cooperation with the Dolly Alliance has gradually started, so there are just a lot of tasks that can be assigned to the players.

The players worked so hard that they were comparable to the power-generating undead, which surprised Milton, since the rewards for these tasks were not high in his opinion.

Of course, this is because he doesn't know that stable daily tasks can provide players with a lot of experience. Even if they don't give money, players will actively complete the tasks. If you casually flip through the forum and the world, you can see that many players are expressing their regret for missing the multi-person hidden mission, and regretting how they went to bed so early that day.

Teague's knowledge of Dolly's internals also came in handy when working with the Dolly. He knows almost all the suppliers in the alliance and the forces behind them, their behavior, and the dark history, so that Hesse can get rid of those unreliable collaborators as soon as possible.

When leaving the government affairs center, Xiao Zhi accidentally saw Eugene outside.

After waking up in Frost, Eugene was taken away by Lance. Xiao Zhi told Lance that if Eugene wanted to leave, he could escort him away at any time, and returned the other party's storage ring, and gave him a generous gift to express his gratitude and apologize for his offense.

Unexpectedly, after such a period of time, Eugene was still in Hesse, and the bag on his head was gone, and he didn't wear a mask. He was walking around the trade area with his original face like this, and his pace was quite brisk. .

Xiao Zhi stepped forward and greeted him: "Eugene."

Eugene actually returned the salute with a smile: "Mr. Seventeen, congratulations on your promotion."

This smile made Xiao Zhi a little confused, what happened to Eugene? Why does he seem to be in such a good mood, is this the eccentric Eugene he knew before?

It seems that he also found that his performance was inconsistent, and Eugene scratched his head embarrassedly: "Well, I'm thinking about staying in the trade area. It seems that it would be good to open a clinic here."

Xiao Zhi asked with some doubts, "Aren't you going back to the Borderless Land?"

Eugene shook his head and said: "I don't want to go back, there are no people there all day long, it's so boring, and Archduke Warren has fallen, I don't need to hide from him anymore. How wonderful Hesse, everyone is so enthusiastic , and looks so pleasing to the eye, you really didn't lie to me."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at all kinds of zombies with corpse spots, skeletons, opened undead, and dry mummies around him with satisfaction...

Xiao Zhi: "..."

Probably, this guy is quite satisfied with his top status in Hesse...

To what extent are you Xiyue people obsessed with beauty?

Suddenly, Xiao Zhi saw that the happy smile on Eugene's face disappeared, turning into confusion and panic.

In the next moment, Eugene, who was still quite happy, covered his face and burst into tears: "Woo woo woo wah wah wah wah wah... Why? Why did you let me see..."

Xiao Zhi was at a loss: "What?"

What's wrong with this man? He laughs and weeps for a while. Could it be that the treatment caused something wrong with his brain?

Eugene still covered his face and cried, but he pointed a finger behind Xiao Zhi with an empty hand.

Xiao Zhi turned his head and saw that Teague came out of the government affairs center with a stack of documents in his hand, as if he was about to take it somewhere. Since the sky in Hesse was always gloomy, and there were trees to shade the sun, he did not wrap himself in a cloak.

Unlike Eugene, who needs people around him to lower his level to set off his appearance, Teague's face is considered top-notch even among the Xiyue clan. After becoming an undead, his pale complexion gave him a different flavor, and now this beautiful face is exposed to all eyes.

The walking breeze lifted Teague's clothes and brushed his hair, even if it was just casually walking by, it was a moving picture.

Xiao Zhi: "..."

Pseudo-top face value meets real top-grade face value, isn't it the only thing to be beaten?

Xiao Zhi thought about it, and finally came up with a reason to comfort Eugene: "Don't worry, in the eyes of the undead, your looks are all on the same level."

As long as there is a complete head, it is cute in Hesse.

Eugene: "..."

The location chosen for the consultation room should be farther away from the government affairs center...

The farther the better...

Hessen gradually opened up, and news came from Mulan Fasha from the Yuan clan. The repair of the teleportation array was completed. With the cooperation from the Dolly Alliance, Xiao Zhi had more and more things in his hands.

Xiao Zhi once again promoted Milton and several other capable officials, and by the way, he also arranged a formal diplomat position for Teague, and let him be responsible for dealing with the treacherous Xiyue clan. This is called Yixi System tide.

At the same time, two officials from other countries that they were optimistic about sacrificed honorably and successfully turned into undead, adding more manpower to them.

What a joy.

As the days passed, various sources of experience had led Xiao Zhi to reach level 220 without much effort, and he was only level 20 away from the full level of 240.

Xiao Zhi felt that the easiest way to level up was in Hessen. He could gain a lot of experience every day just by flipping through books and moving his mouth. This was completely different from jumping up and down in other maps, climbing trees and diving into the sea.

During this time, Xiao Zhi did not stop investigating Blaise.

The more he investigates, the more puzzled he feels. Whether he is looking on forums or asking teachers and senior brothers, Brees looks like a conservative religious country with a lot of fuss.

This place suppresses business, and the whole people believe in religion. There are many rules and strict levels. If you are not careful, you will be punished and expelled. It is the least favorite place for players who love freedom and do things. Except for priests and knights, there are very few Players go there a lot.

The reason they have been fighting Hessian is also the old-fashioned "light will drive out the darkness".

As for the deeper purpose, it was not revealed at all.

Xiao Zhi felt very puzzled. For hundreds of years, no flaws have been revealed. How strict organization and management can this be done? According to the news, Braith's interior should be divided into several factions, and they have been fighting with each other. Which faction is the one who attacked Frost? Or is it the secret of the entire Braith executive?

However, during this period of time, Xiao Zhi conducted a screening of the senior leaders of Brace five hundred years ago, and found the news of the old man who appeared in Frost's memory.

Xiao Zhi sat in front of Frost's desk, flipping through the documents in his hand.

The current White Bone Hall is not the same as before. It is no longer an empty space that seems to be uninterested in anything, but has a lot of furniture and collectibles. The claws of monsters, the blood-red skeleton, and the chest have been stabbed. Large holes in armor and even vases made of unknown skulls adorned them.

It may seem more sinister than before, but to the undead, this should be called home.

Warm and beautiful.

Xiao Zhi said that he accepted it well and was not frightened.

This old man is called Andre, and he has been a devout follower of the Brethian religion since he was a child. He has become a bishop and an archbishop from the lowest priest all the way, and finally became the twenty-fourth Pope of Bresse, and died ten years later.

Judging from the data, Andre is a humble person, sincere and friendly towards others, and has an excellent reputation among the church members. It can be said that he is a highly respected person. But this is completely different from what Xiao Zhi saw in Frost's recollections, the ruthless and hypocritical guy. Presumably the information released by the church must have been beautified and disguised to a certain extent.

There is also a gossip that the original Pope's intended successor is not Andre, but another archbishop - Gretta.

Greatta was considered a genius, twenty years younger than Andre, but he had already been promoted to Archbishop, and his reputation among the congregation almost crushed Andre. But because of an accident, Gretta disappeared. Some people say that he betrayed God, and some people say that he was polluted by the undead, and the church had to purify him.

Anyway, in the end, Andre succeeded in ascending the Pope's throne, and Gretta was forgotten by the world.

Xiao Zhi always felt that Greerata's disappearance might have something to do with Andre. But it's been too many years, and the players of that year didn't have a full-time research game like Li Daye, and they didn't know the truth of the matter.

While thinking about it, Xiao Zhi felt a scorching gaze, and he didn't need to think to know who the owner of this gaze was.

Xiao Zhi turned his head, and sure enough, he met Frost's calm eyes: "What's wrong?"

Frost sat on the sofa and looked at him quietly.

Seeing that Frost didn't answer, Xiao Zhi asked again: "Assen, what are you looking at me for?"

Frost shook his head and didn't speak, but his eyes still locked on Xiao Zhi, like a cat peeking at his master's work. But now he no longer hides behind the door, but looks straight ahead with a big fanfare, which is a kind of progress.

Xiao Zhi put down the information in his hand with a puzzled face, got up from the table and walked to Frost.

He reached out and touched Frost's forehead. He didn't have a fever, but it was still as cold as a corpse. What happened to this man?

Frost's articulated hand gently held Xiao Zhi's hand on his forehead and took it down, but he didn't let go, he just held Xiao Zhi's slender hand in his palm.

The room was silent and a little dark, which seemed to be suitable for brewing some charming atmosphere.

Xiao Zhi felt that his heartbeat was quietly faster by two beats, which was not obvious, but it was impossible to ignore.

After a while, Frost's low voice sounded: "The time is up, you said before that you would sleep very deeply today."

After 600 years of technological development, players can of course sleep and rest in the game, but the sleep that Xiao Zhi said is different from ordinary rest, because he is going to go offline tonight. Tomorrow is the school celebration of Haizong. All students need to go to Star No. 1 to participate. This is also a rare event for Haizong to gather all members.

Frost had a vague feeling that this sleep was different from ordinary sleep. It was the kind that was 600 years ago. Although it looked like a deep sleep, he felt the subtle difference.

He didn't even want to hear the word "good night". The last good night made him wait six hundred years, but this time...

Xiao Zhi comforted him with a smile: "Don't worry, this time will be very soon, I promise."

Frost looked at him deeply for a long time before slowly nodding: "Okay."

Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Zhi was also going to find a place to go offline. I don't know if it was not considered in the layout, or because there are not many beds in Hesse. There is only one bed in Frost's room in the entire White Bone Hall. Fortunately, this bed is large enough to accommodate five Lances on it. roll.

Xiao Zhi skillfully lay on Frost's big bed, adjusted his posture and prepared to go offline.

Frost followed him and stayed by the bed, just like when Xiao Zhi was offline in Hessen many years ago. The platinum-colored eyes have been locked on Xiao Zhi, and the emotions in his eyes are too complicated.

Xiao Zhi reached out and wrapped a strand of Frost's silver hair with his fingertips. This time he avoided the word "good night": "See you tomorrow."

Frost followed Xiao Zhi's strength to get closer, so as to facilitate Xiao Zhi's movements, but the trend of his approaching did not stop, and he continued to lean down a little bit.

Xiao Zhi watched the familiar face in front of him getting closer and closer to him, and he could clearly see Frost's straight nose, knife-like outline, and... those eyes that were staring at him deeply.

Xiao Zhi felt that his heartbeat rate was creeping up again, and his posture was gradually losing control.

In the end, the cool lips brushed against his ear, and the soft touch caused a tickling. Frost's voice was very soft, with a little lingering breath, which seemed to melt into people's hearts: "Tomorrow See……"
