Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 329: Ice Beauty Caroline

Caroline and Irene have been in the base for some time. Although they are two girls, they are powerful. Caroline has never smiled in front of her subordinates, so she is privately called an ice beauty. Compared with Caroline, Irene is laughing all day long, and often jokes and makes a lot of noises with these noble private armed forces. They are completely opposite to Caroline in character. However, when Caroline sees Irene and Xingluo, she never hesitates to smile. Perhaps this is her true side.

Caroline looked at Xingluo with a smile on her face: "Long time no see, Lord~ My Lord~" Caroline deliberately lengthened the last four words. Xingluo said a little embarrassedly: "Well, Caroline, thank you for your hard work over the years."

Caroline didn't really blame Xingluo. Everything they had was given by Xingluo. Without Xingluo, they might have starved to death long ago. So she was just acting like a spoiled child in front of Xingluo. Seeing his embarrassed look, Caroline suddenly felt that all the tiredness of these years was swept away.

If the armed forces saw Caroline's current appearance, they would be shocked. She was no longer their icy female boss, but a girl next door.

Caroline briefly reported the situation of the territory to Xingluo, and strongly requested Xingluo to come back more often. After all, this was his territory, and he could not run to the mercenary group as soon as he came back. This was the place where a noble lord should come, because it was next to the mercenary group’s base, and Xingluo didn’t even have a place to stay here. Every time he came, he went straight to Caroline and Irene, but they were happy to do so, and always tried their best to make Xingluo happy. For them, they all had their own little thoughts and hoped to get Xingluo’s attention. Their current achievements were all thanks to Xingluo. Whenever they thought of the days in the past when they had no food to eat and were hungry, they cherished the present more and more. Xingluo, who rescued them from the darkness, became the object of their loyalty from the bottom of their hearts, which was more effective than the contract magic. Xingluo felt their inner emotions and relaxed. Unlike Vivian, they were not bound by the contract, but were held together by emotion, so Xingluo Luo attached more importance to the relationship with them. Compared with the mercenary group, the territory was much larger and more lively. There were more ordinary people, all of whom had their own skills and received generous rewards every day. They got married and had children here, and then grew up in their own families. Then they left the territory and developed in other places, but in the end they would all be grateful to Xingluo Territory. This was also Xingluo's idea for developing the territory in the future. He did not forcibly restrict the freedom of these people, but those who signed the contract had better rewards, and those who did not sign the contract were treated better than most of the noble territories. There was no way. The land here was fertile, and there was a big river next to it, which made transportation extremely convenient. There was also the largest gold-consuming cave in the entire continent, an entertainment venue that combined Xingluo's memories of his previous life. Not only local magicians and craftsmen came here to consume, but even people from other empires would come here, invest half their life savings here, buy a house, and enjoy it nearby.

Xingluo had never thought that he would let the entertainment industry here develop to this extent with just a random idea. However, he repeatedly emphasized that these people should pay attention to the bottom line and never allow anyone to lend money to these people privately. If they lose all their money, the casino will return part of their money to them, and they can be allowed to work for the territory to earn money without becoming slaves. There are many similar measures. Xingluo has been busy doing these since he created this den of money. Now he has not heard of any vicious incidents, and Xingluo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"What? Do you have time to come here?" Ying stared at Xingluo with some curiosity.

"Why don't you stay in the mercenary group and why do you like it here?" Xingluo asked back.

"Huh, what? Weren't you very welcoming when I first came? If I weren't secretly managing the entertainment industry here, do you think it would be so stable? This kind of violent industry is the most challenging to human nature." Ying only showed a pair of eyes and stared at Xingluo.

"But don't think too much. I came here just to feel the human nature and make a breakthrough. It's mutually beneficial between us." Ying said coldly.

Xingluo nodded and said nothing more. Both of them were not talkative people. Instead, they preferred quietness. They just stood together for a long time. Ying had left without knowing when. This guy had a deeper understanding of darkness, but he talked more than before. Xingluo was a little dazed looking at the prosperous scene of the territory. He found that he had more things to protect.

Where there is light, there will be shadow. As long as the light does not fade, the shadow will always exist. No matter how prosperous the scene is, there will always be a dark side. Ying is responsible for the management of the entire entertainment industry and is the uncrowned king of the underground organization. Although this is only Xingluo's territory, it is also the center of the underground world of the Luoshen Empire. Because of the development of the entertainment industry, a large number of underground forces have been bred here, and it can be said that undercurrents are surging. In such an environment, Ying alone can become the king of the underground forces. It can be seen that the other party is powerful and his means are extraordinary. Xingluo is a little emotional. He didn't expect that this person who usually doesn't show his talents and even he would ignore him has grown to this level.

"Ying, wait for me!" A clear female voice sounded, revealing helplessness and a hint of anger.

Ying's figure appeared silently beside the girl, which scared her. The girl was very cute, with pure eyes, as if she had not been tainted by the worldly material desires. Ying was not wearing a mask, and her face was still childish, even a little immature.

"I just want to go and see if there is any danger. I will always be by your side." Ying said seriously.

The girl chuckled. She was a little annoyed, but that also disappeared. She really couldn't get angry anymore. "You mean you want to go to Luoshen Academy? Can I go with you?"

Ying glanced at the girl, seeming to be hesitant to speak. The girl had no talent. Even though she was a knight, she was promoted only after he kept going to the ruins to help her retrieve valuable things.

However, looking at the innocent girl at this moment, Ying couldn't bear to say no to her, so he just nodded firmly. He had to stay up late again tonight. He had heard before that there was a relic nearby with a powerful magic circle inside, which meant that there must be something valuable that had not been explored. His attribute was darkness, which was superior to almost all attributes. At least he had not been defeated by the five elements in the same level, and even the power of light could only tie with him.
