Chapter 132 Chief Road

Later, Lu Zhizhi learned that Saloi used all his energy to activate the magic circle, separating him from his own destiny.

So the curse only works on him.

Lu Zhizhi returned to Lan Yin Palace overnight and flipped through all the books in the study, trying to find a way to crack the code. Suddenly, the long-silent voice in her mind sounded again -

"You want to save him?"

Yes, I think so.

"Why? He is the one who caused your soul to be incomplete."

He didn't know and it was unintentional.

"If I tell you to pay an equal price, are you willing to do it?"

I do.

"You didn't even ask what the cost was?"

Saloi didn't care what the price would be, but he could forcibly remove the curse for me. I couldn't just ignore him, so no matter what the price, I would choose to save him.

However, the voice in my head didn't sound again until a few minutes later.

"Go behind the 'door' and find an old man holding a kerosene lamp. Before I died, I left something with him. That thing can help you. But don't be too happy too soon. You have to leave something for him too. As for what it is, you can choose it yourself."

The last word echoed, and the voice in my head fell silent after it was spoken.

Lu Zhizhi sat among a pile of books, still wondering where to find the old man. She clearly hadn't seen him the last time she went there.

"Zhizhi?"

She looked over in the direction of the sound and saw Lu Yuan standing at the door of the study, looking at her.

"Brother, I came back to find something."

Lu Yuan came over and picked her up from the ground, brushing off the dust on her skirt. "This is your home. You can come back anytime you want. You don't have to explain to anyone."

Now that they were close, Lu Zhizhi remembered the last time they parted unhappily. She lowered her head awkwardly. Lu Yuan saw what she was thinking and said softly, "Just don't be angry with your brother."

She looked up at Lu Yuan and saw that he was as elegant as ever, but there were obvious red bloodshot eyes with fatigue.

"Brother, are you busy lately?"

"Still the same."

"Then why do you look so tired? Didn't you get enough sleep?"

Lu Yuan fell silent, looked at her for a while, and said, "I heard from Qiaxi that you went to the wormhole."

If someone else were to say this incoherent sentence, they might not understand the unfinished meaning of Lu Yuan.

But Lu Zhizhi immediately understood that he was worried about her and probably had hardly slept during this period.

Even if she was angry at this moment, it had all disappeared.

Lu Zhizhi hugged Lu Yuan's waist, put her face against his chest, and whispered, "Brother, I won't quarrel with you anymore."

Lu Yuan laughed and stroked her head with his big hand. "We didn't quarrel. Why would my brother quarrel with you? I was too controlling of you in the past. During the time you were away, I wondered every day if I was suffocating you and making you dislike this family."

Hearing this, her nose turned red and her throat felt sore. She said, "This will always be my home, and you will always be my brother."

In a place where Lu Zhizhi couldn't see, Lu Yuan had a sad look in his eyes and kept repeating: "I will always be your brother"

If he had a choice, he didn't want to be the adopted son of the Lu family.

But Lu Yuan immediately thought that if he had not become the adopted son of the Lu family, her brother, he might never have the chance to meet her.

Lu Yuan lowered his head, hugged the warmth in his arms, and hugged her nostalgically like when they were children. "Maybe this is good enough, family can accompany each other for a lifetime, right?"

Lu Zhizhi returned to the headquarters the next day and went straight to Qiaxi's office.

"Sir, I have to go to the 'gate' again."

Qiasi turned around in his office chair, stared at her, and said unhappily, "Is that the city gate tower? You can go in and out as you say?"

Lu Zhizhi was startled by the sharp aura around him. She blinked twice, stood up straight with her hands behind her back, and said, "Well, what should we do? What is the general process for entering the 'door'?"

Qiasi threw an application on the table in front of her and said coldly, "Your sentinels have already filled out the armament application for you. The departure date is left blank for you. Fill it out yourself."

"How did they know I was going?" she asked curiously.

It turned out that Hector, who had become invisible that day, had been following Lu Zhizhi. At first, he was worried about her being alone with Saloi, but he got some information from their conversation. After returning, he told Li Chenjun and others, and naturally associated it with the curse.

They knew that Lu Zhizhi would definitely find a way to save Saloi, so instead of trying to stop her, it would be better to follow and protect her so that they could take care of her in time if anything happened.

After learning from Qiaxi, Lu Zhizhi looked at the application form with mixed feelings and said, "I want to go alone and don't want to implicate others."

"Forget about it. The command center will never let you act alone. Do you think you can fly alone just because you have superpowers?"

Lu Zhizhi was speechless after being confronted by Qiaxi. She frowned and muttered, "Sir, I've wanted to ask you for a long time, do you have any problem with me?"

Qiasi was startled, looked at her deeply, and asked, "What did you say?"

"I felt it. You looked down on me from the beginning and thought I couldn't do anything well."

Qiasi's breathing became heavier, and he frowned and stared at her, saying, "You are wrong. I don't look down on you."

Lu Zhizhi was confused and asked, "Then why are you always so hot and cold towards me? Sometimes you are nice, sometimes you are mean, and sometimes you get angry at me?"

She saw Qiasi's lips move a few times, his expression was complicated, and the way he looked at her became strange.

Qiasi walked up to her, lowered his head and looked at her, and said word by word: "Be obedient, I treat you as a superior to a subordinate, nothing more."

Lu Zhizhi had a puzzled look on her face, wondering who said what, since she didn't ask.

She said "Oh", and when she walked out with the application form, she turned around and asked Qiasi, "Sir, how old are you this year?"

Qiasi was about to light a cigarette, he paused and looked at her, asking suspiciously, "What for?"

"I heard from Chelsi that the older sentinels have periods of rage."

'boom--'

Chasi threw the lighter at her and it hit the door.

Lu Zhizhi quickly slipped away, and behind her she heard Qiaxi's loud roar: "Close the door!"

The departure date was set for a week later because the results of the election for the twelve seats in the Senate would be announced that week.

Thanks to the secret manipulation of Lu Yuan and Liu Congyun, and the prestige of Saloi, Lu Zhizhi became the new chief of the Senate with a slight advantage of one vote.

When the result came out, everyone was shocked.

"Why is it a little girl who is the chief?"

"So what if she's a guide? What does she know?"

Doubts came one after another, but they were all ruthlessly suppressed by Liu Congyun, and Lu Yuan was busy as a whim.

The first thing Chief Lu did when he took office was to propose a motion - to allow Zerg and humans to coexist peacefully.

The proposal was first voted on in the Senate, and of course it was passed without any suspense. Lu Zhizhi then truly witnessed Liu Congyun's power. Four of the twelve seats were under his influence, and the remaining one was Lu Yuan's vote, plus Lu Zhizhi's own vote. It was passed if more than half of the votes were cast.

But after the Senate approves it, it also needs to be approved by the headquarters and the military department. So Lu Zhizhi has been going in and out of the military department frequently recently, and now it is inevitable that she will meet old acquaintances.
