Zongman: Don't move, Aisi, your family still owes me money

As Hyacinthus spoke, he spread the portrait in his arms on the table.

Apollo's gaze subconsciously swept upwards.

The portrait showed a black-haired young man with a slender figure and a stern face, especially his eyes, which exuded a strange charm like the abyss.

Almost at the first sight, Apollo was attracted by the black-haired young man in the portrait.

That stern face and icy expression made his spirits more high than ever before.

"Hyacinthus, who is this child?"

"Do you have a clan? No, even if you do, I will definitely get them."

Apollo's face flushed like a girl's first love, and he spoke with great determination.

After hearing this, a hint of jealousy flashed in Hyacinthus' eyes, but he still answered honestly.

"They are from Hestia's family."

"Hestia?"

Apollo was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"Ah, I didn't expect that Hestia could actually find her people."

"It doesn't matter. That weakling Hestia doesn't deserve such a beautiful child."

"Only I, Apollo, am the god most worthy of him."

"By the way, Hyacinthus, what's this guy's name?"

Apollo picked up the portrait and rubbed it, then looked at Hyacinthus and asked.

"Merlin."

"Merlin?"

"Well, that's a delightful name."

Apollo smiled even more happily.

However, Hyacinthus, who was standing aside, clenched his hands involuntarily behind his back.

A cold murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

"Hyacinthus, find a way quickly and bring this child to me."

"I can't wait to pamper this child."

Apollo's eyes flashed with madness, and he licked Merlin in the portrait.

"Yes, I will do it as soon as possible. Everything will be in accordance with your wishes, Master Apollo."

Hyacinthus bowed respectfully and said this, then turned and walked out of the hall.

After he left the hall, he immediately gathered all the members of Apollo's family and informed everyone of this matter.

"From now on, everyone is in Orario, searching for the target person."

Hyacinthus said as he put the picture of Merlin on the board.

"Well, Captain, what should we do if we find it?"

"Of course..."

Hyacinthus's face darkened and he stabbed the sword in his hand directly into the head of Merlin in the portrait.

“Kill.”

"No, bring it to me."

Hyacinthus immediately shook his head.

Although he did want to kill the man who had gained Apollo's new favor.

But he couldn't openly disobey Apollo's orders.

However, if that guy named Merlin dared to resist without knowing the consequences, he wouldn't mind punishing him a little on behalf of Apollo.

Soon everyone dispersed one by one, and in a corner of the mansion.

Two women were talking in low voices about something that happened not long ago.

The red-haired woman held her chin, a look of worry and nervousness on her pretty face.

"What a trouble! Who has Apollo set his sights on this time?"

"Ah, Daphne-chan, keep your voice down. It would be bad if other people heard it."

The long-haired woman standing nearby, with her hair covering half of her face and looking somewhat gloomy, glanced around worriedly, and after confirming that there was no one else around, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, even if you heard it, what would happen?"

Daphne waved her hand nonchalantly, "I've long since given up on staying in the Apollo family anyway."

Of course she said that, but she still lowered her voice a little.

"But I really feel sorry for the guy who was targeted."

"After all, I'm afraid all my companions will be..."

Daphne pursed her lips slightly, a hint of sadness in her eyes.

At this moment, she couldn't help but recall how she and Cassandra were pulled into the Apollo family.

At that time, no matter how much she insisted, it would be meaningless.

In the face of absolute strength, the weak have no say.

Coincidentally, the Apollo family is one of the most prestigious families in Orario.

The number of high-level adventurers alone exceeds double digits, not to mention the others.

And according to Hyacinthus's previous explanation, the other party was just a low-ranking clan, and even had only one member.

Under such circumstances, the outcome could be decided in an instant.

"Well, anyway, this matter has to do with...eh, Cassandra?"

Daphne hadn't finished her words when she noticed her friend looked lost in thought.

"Ah, Daphne-chan...I had a prophetic dream last night, it seemed..."

Cassandra seemed a little worried, pursed her lips and said yes.

"In the prophetic dream, the sun will be swallowed by a huge black cloud, and then the earth will fall into an era of darkness."

"This is... a bad sign. It might be related to the current situation."

"Hey, Daphne-chan, why don't we go and persuade Lord Apollo to..."

Cassandra couldn't help but grab Daphne's hand and urge her.

"Forget it Cassandra, Apollo has made the decision and we have no right to interfere."

"Besides, the other party is just one person. He will never win over the Apollo family."

Daphne shook her head, obviously not believing in precognitive dreams or anything like that.

"But... it's a precognitive dream..."

Chapter 89: The Mantis Catches the Cicada, While the Oriole Is Behind

"Hey, Livilia, is this really the direction? This is an abandoned area."

Tione looked around with some confusion. The buildings looked dilapidated and decayed, and it was obvious that they had been abandoned for a long time.

She had also heard before that the old neighborhood had long been abandoned and no one lived there.

After all, the buildings here are dilapidated and completely unsuitable for human habitation.

In Tione's opinion, the place where the pharmacist who can develop an all-purpose potion lives must be very luxurious.

Even if it wasn't a luxurious villa, it definitely wouldn't be a place like this.

"Yes, he lives in a place like this. And, Dione, I warned you a long time ago not to judge a book by its cover."

Livilia said, glancing at Tione unhappily.

"Ah, yes, yes," Tione answered perfunctorily, waving her hand unhappily.

"Okay, further ahead is Merlin's residence. Once you go in, don't be rude."

Livilia couldn't help but give a warning.

"Don't worry, Livilia. I still have that kind of eyes. I won't be like Diona, rushing up without knowing what to do and saying something rude."

Tione nodded quickly to show her understanding.

Especially since this mission was assigned to her by their leader Finn, she had to take it seriously and absolutely could not fail.

This is also a great opportunity for her to wash away the ugly appearance from her last expedition.

When Riveria and Tione entered the abandoned district.

The two furtive figures following behind them were also moving.

"Hey, Ais, how much longer do we have to walk? I'm already tired."

Tiona couldn't help but complain out loud.

After all, they had been walking since an hour ago.

With her personality, she couldn't bear such boring tracking for such a long time.

You know, even in the maze, there has never been a situation where we can move forward safely for a whole hour without encountering any monsters.

"Shh, Tiona, keep your voice down, or you'll be discovered if you look back."

Ai Si, who was walking in front, turned around and made a gesture to keep quiet.

"Huh? I actually think that with Livilia's skills, she might have discovered us a long time ago."

"Or, shall we go out?"

Tiona couldn't help but suggest.

Of course, more importantly, she thought it might be more interesting to do it that way.

"No, we'll have to contact that person secretly later. If Livilia finds out... she'll scold us."

Ai Si pursed her lips and gave a very realistic answer.

"Ah... well, Livilia's sermons are very long."

A gloomy look appeared on Diona's face, and she shook her head desperately to drive away the thought of what she would encounter after being exposed.

"Alright then, let's continue... tracking. We should be there soon anyway."

Tiona had no choice but to agree to Ai Si's proposal and continue tracking.

It was just behind the two of them, about a few hundred meters away.

A silver figure flashed and appeared on the roof.

That person was Bert who was following Ai Si and Tiona.

"Tsk, those two idiots, haven't they realized they're being followed yet?"

"Well, I'll find a way to expose them to that old woman and then lure her and Tione away. Then I can take the opportunity to take the pharmacist away."

Bert clenched his fists, and when he thought of his plan, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

After the success, not only will his strength increase greatly, he can even avenge the previous attack.

Just as Bert was about to move, a rustling sound came into his ears.

Bert immediately looked in the direction where the sound came from. In his sight, on the roof farther away, more than a dozen figures were running towards this side at a very fast speed.

"Hmm? Those guys are... in the same direction as the old woman?"

"coincide?"

"Forget it, so as not to attract the attention of the old woman."

Although Bert thought about whether to drive those people away, to him, the highest strength of those people was only LV2.
