Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 9 Johnny
Lu Chen watched the sand man walk away, wondering if he could be of any use to him later. But the fact that he was alive was enough to attract the attention of a certain president.

If an assassin sent out escaped control after contact with the target, it was obviously a problem, so he would definitely find a way to figure it out.

I hope Yinren can return when his tribe has just been destroyed, so that he will definitely develop the most intense hatred towards the President.

Hatred is the most powerful driving force. His love for his family will eventually transform into rage and be unleashed upon the President, especially now that he has the ability to do so. This will draw a significant portion of the President's attention, making his subsequent actions much more convenient.

And if he succeeded in rescuing his sister, given his personality, he would probably be grateful to me.

No matter what the outcome, Lu Chen had already received his reward the moment Sand Man returned to the tribe. After that, it was just a matter of how much profit he would make.

After the sand man's back was completely out of sight, Lu Chen prepared to go back and take all his things away. The thick smoke from the burning would definitely attract many people to come and check it out.

Just as he put away his kettle, Lu Chen realized that someone else had come here.

Then he looked up and saw that it was Johnny and Jero. This surprised him. Was he really so slow?

Not only did the Sound Man catch up, but now even Johnny and Jello appeared here.

Then almost all the main characters should be around here by now. However, the remains of the saints will all appear here, and then the scramble will begin.

When the two men saw the person standing there and knew him, they rode their horses closer and closer.

So Lu Chen stopped packing his things and stood there waiting for the two to approach.

The two men rode their horses and stopped beside Lu Chen.

Lu Chen was the first to greet the two protagonists with a smile: "We meet again. I didn't expect to see you here." Lu Chen really didn't expect to see them here. He had originally planned to wait here for a few days for the contestants to participate in the competition.

Johnny immediately realized from the saint's remains in his left hand that the Oriental man he had met at the starting point also held a saint's remains.

This was a mutual induction between the remains. Furthermore, by this time, Jero had already revealed who the saint's remains belonged to.

So this Oriental guy who didn't participate in the competition came here directly for the body parts?
"I didn't expect to see you here." Johnny looked at Lu Chen thoughtfully. "Were you fighting someone earlier?" He whispered to Jello that the man in front of him had a piece of the saint's remains.

"You encountered an assassin. I guess your journey wasn't smooth, was it?"

Lu Chen also realized that Johnny had not lost the Saint's left hand, so they must have suffered several attacks. They knew the answer to this question.

Jero asked directly, "You knew about this before you participated in the competition, right?"

It was obvious that this Oriental man was not sent by the Vatican, but he recognized himself as a member of the Zeppeli family at a glance.

The person in front of me is not simple!
Lu Chen looked at Jie Luo and replied with a hint of meaning: "If you ask that, then I do know about this. And I'm not the only one who knows about this. Obviously, there are other people who know about it, such as the person who organized this event."

Jello shook his head and said, "I know who is behind all this. Maybe he is not the same person as you are talking about." They had met Lucy before, so they naturally knew that Mr. Steele was just a target set up in the open by the President.

"I think it's the same person."

"Your goal from the beginning was to find the saint's remains, right? You know the location of the remains. Do you have the missing map?" Jello knew that there was a missing map.

"Don't you think the route of this race is a coincidence? The map must be in the hands of the organizers."

Jello agreed with this answer. Combined with Lucy's previous intelligence, it was obvious that the President was the one behind all this. But what role did this Oriental man play in this?

Johnny blurted out, "Then how do you know all this? Why would an Oriental like you come here to look for the remains of a saint?"

Lu Chen replied as a matter of course: "Isn't this the welfare of all mankind? Then I naturally have the right to touch it." Then his face suddenly darkened: "Aren't you participating in a competition? Or are you here to compete with me for the saint's remains?"

As soon as these words were spoken, a substitute, Ya1, immediately appeared behind Johnny. He was ready to strike if things went wrong. Furthermore, he also wanted the saintly remains of the man before him. No one could stop his determination to stand up again.

Seeing this, Jello reached out and patted Johnny, indicating that now was not a good time to take action.

Lu Chen didn't panic. Instead, he reached out and took out the copper kettle from the bag on his horse's back. Then he shook it and asked the two of them, "Would you like a cup of coffee? I just made it."

Jello threw the cup in his pocket over and said, "Give me a drink then."

Johnny was still a little wary of the tense situation just now. He looked a little surprised, but he still took the substitute back.

After Lu Chen took the cup, he poured a cup of coffee for Jello with his own kettle and handed it back.

After taking the cup, Jello said to Johnny, "Don't you want to drink something to refresh yourself? We still have a long way to go today." It was obvious that Jello didn't have to worry about Lu Chen poisoning him.

So Johnny handed his cup to Lu Chen, and he also got a cup of extremely bitter coffee.

Jero took a sip of coffee and continued asking, "Now you can tell us why you know so many unusual things."

"All of this was naturally told to me by God. Every step I take forward is guided personally by the saint." Lu Chen made a pious expression.

"Really?" Jello was a little skeptical.

"Haven't you heard the guidance of the saint? I got a piece of the saint's remains a long time ago, and since then I have often been able to hear the saint's guidance to me. I always feel that I am the one chosen by the saint." These lies were beyond their ability to expose.

Both of them had heard the saint's whispers when they obtained the saint's remains, so what Lu Chen said was possible.

According to what Lucy said, the President was also sending people to hunt down the Oriental man in front of him, so it can be known that Lu Chen is not his enemy at the moment.
