Versatile Mage: Lord of Space

Chapter 247: Ice Soul Seed, Resolving Regrets

Zhu Meng fell into a brief contemplation, the emotions in his eyes becoming more and more complicated, as if he contained thousands of words that were difficult to express.

Just then, Lin Lan arrived at the right time.

When Lei Hao saw Lin Lan, he quickly grabbed him and pointed to Zhu Meng who was not far away. He said with a puzzled look on his face: "Lin Lan, look at what happened to Councillor Zhu Meng? Brother Lei and I just said a name, and he became like this."

Lin Lan frowned slightly, his eyes fell on Zhu Meng, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I'm not sure, maybe he's tired. After all, he's old and has limited energy."

Lei Hanhai spoke at the side with a gentle expression: "Let's go, Haozi. We can't take care of the rewards from Councillor Zhu Meng for now, Uncle Lei Yuan is still waiting for us. Lin Lan, we'll leave first. You must come to Lei Town someday. Now the development of Lei Town is in its infancy, and many members of the Lei Clan have returned. Grandpa Lei has been thinking about you and is looking forward to your visit."

The development of Lei Town is indeed at a critical stage. Although many members of the clan have returned, in order to achieve long-term development, there must be a young and promising backbone who can let the entire force see the hope and potential of the future. And Lin Lan is undoubtedly the young man who is highly expected. His talent and ability are destined to make him stand at the top. Lei Hanhai's words are intended to invite Lin Lan to Lei Town, because the Lei Clan needs Lin Lan's appearance to inspire people.

Lin Lan nodded slightly, his eyes firm: "Okay, I will definitely go there when I have time."

……

After saying goodbye to the Lei brothers, Lin Lan walked towards Zhu Meng and others. At this time, Zhu Meng still had a complicated expression on his face. People who didn't know might think he was thinking about the totem black snake.

When Chief Judge Li Tian was about to ask, Councillor Zhu Meng waved his hand and said firmly: "Don't worry, my hidden danger strategy will no longer include the Totem Black Snake. In any case, it has saved all of us and saved us from a huge strategic mistake that is almost irreparable. I have to thank it!"

Zhu Meng naturally understood what Li Tian wanted to say. From the beginning of the whole incident, Li Tian had always stood on the side of the Totem Black Snake.

As he spoke, Councillor Zhu Meng's eyes involuntarily turned to the outside of the West Fortress. The skyscraper snake that was entwined around was huge beyond imagination. As if it felt Zhu Meng's gaze, the totem black snake slowly woke up from its resting state. It gently poked its head over, and just by slightly raising its head, its huge head was almost level with the watchtower of the West Fortress.

The totem black snake glanced at Lin Lan and Zhu Meng, then retracted its gaze. At this point, it had completely digested Luo Mian, so naturally it couldn't spit it out...

"Senator Zhu Meng, I have something else to tell you." Lin Lan stepped forward and said seriously.

Zhu Meng looked at the serious Lin Lan, and the reward promised to Lin Lan immediately came to his mind. According to common sense, Lin Lan came here most likely to ask for a reward. Zhu Meng paused for a moment and said, "You are here to ask for a reward, right? You can rest assured that I will keep my word. The honorary title of the Guardian of Hangzhou is definitely yours, and the resources that should be given to you will not be reduced. Tell me, what do you want?"

Lin Lan was slightly startled, somewhat surprised that Zhu Meng not only took the initiative to mention removing the Totem Black Snake from the hidden danger strategy, but also offered to provide resources so readily. He thought to himself that he was not the kind of person who only cared about rewards.

"That's all in the past, Councillor Zhu Meng. I'm here mainly for other things." Lin Lan said seriously.

"Go ahead." Zhu Meng nodded slightly.

"Luo Mian wanted to kill me, but was beaten by two super-class mages and had no power to fight back. In a panic, he insisted on getting into the belly of the Totem Black Snake. We couldn't stop him. Now, he should have become the Totem Black Snake's... excrement." Lin Lan said.

"You mean, Councillor Luo Mian was killed by you?" Zhu Meng asked with a stern look.

"No, he committed suicide."

"So, Councillor Luo Mian was eaten by the totem black snake?" Zhu Meng asked.

"That's about right...but Luo Mian committed suicide." Lin Lan added.

When Councillor Zhu Meng heard this, anger suddenly surged on his face. He pointed his finger at the black totem snake and shouted, "Well, you actually eat people! Today, even if I risk my life, I will bring you to justice!"

Although Councillor Zhu Meng was furious, he hesitated to take action. He was still injured, and even if his body was intact, he would not be a match for the totem black snake. Moreover, the person being eaten was Luo Mian, and he was just pretending.

Luo Mian had been his colleague for such a long time, and now that he had ended up like this, he had to say a few words for him.

Peanuts for Luo Mian. However, it was only a superficial condemnation. Luo Mian was guilty of a heinous crime. As a member of parliament, he committed an unforgivable crime. The death penalty was inevitable. In addition, considering Lin Lan's background and the great contribution he made this time, Zhu Meng could not say anything more.

"Forget it, Brother Luo Mian is dead, and if you think about it, there's really nothing to regret. Although the status of a congressman is noble, what you did is something that even we congressmen can't do..." Zhu Meng was deeply moved, with a look of relief on his face.

Although Lin Lan is not a native of Hangzhou, his appearance has undoubtedly brought new hope and dawn to the entire Hangzhou. In this incident, Lin Lan's contribution is undoubtedly the greatest.

"No, you should thank not just me, but those soldiers who sacrificed their lives to protect Hangzhou. And also Wang Xiaojun who found the eagle red grass to cure the plague, and my partners Lingling and Mo Fan. The dangers they faced were much greater than mine, and everyone paid a lot." Lin Lan said humbly.

Zhu Meng nodded slightly, his eyes full of admiration: "Don't worry, Hangzhou City will remember them, and will remember you as a great hero even more."

"Then I have to talk about the reward." Just as Zhu Meng was lost in emotion, Lin Lan's expression changed instantly, and a sly smile appeared on his face.

Zhu Meng couldn't help but feel helpless, thinking to himself, can't I just let myself think for a while?
"You tell me." Zhu Meng said helplessly.

"I want a top-level ice soul seed." Lin Lan said.

Lin Lan didn't lack any resources now, but he was only missing an ice soul seed. Zhu Meng had both wealth and access to resources, so it was best to ask him for it.

"You are not an ice mage, what do you want this ice soul seed for?" Zhu Meng asked with some confusion.

"For my girlfriend." Lin Lan said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Meng fell silent, but finally nodded and agreed.

How come all the girlfriends are out?
Forget it, whatever Lin Lan wants is his own idea. Just don’t regret it.

Hangzhou can afford one soul seed.

……

Things finally settled.

No matter what, Wang Xiaojun had a happy ending.

A young boy and a mixed-blooded eagle went through hardships together and finally survived. Although the eagle's bloodline was not noble and its strength was not strong, the friendship between it and its master, as well as the contributions they made, will surely be praised by people for thousands of years.

When Wang Xiaojun returned with the Eagle Red Grass, the soldiers of the entire Western Fortress paid him the highest respect! !

The disaster that befell Hangzhou City should not have been borne by a young boy and an eagle alone.

Lin Lan was just taking this opportunity to make up for some small regrets in his heart.

Wang Xiaojun was also awarded the title of Sky Eagle Wizard, which is also a recognition and affirmation of him.

At a young age, he traveled through the White Magic Eagle Legion, which was feared by the entire city. He had no military rank but was not afraid of power.

The crisis facing Hangzhou City was not caused by the White Devil Eagle or the plague, but by the city's own cowardice that had begun to corrupt and decay without any resistance. It would spread among the people like a plague and destroy everything...
