Chapter 817 – Stance
At this moment, Lin Qiye finally remembered where he had heard this name.
Lu Baoyu, was the son of Lu Qiu, the temporary commander of the Sinking Dragon Pass.
At that time, if Lu Qiu hadn’t used the Ghost and God Lead to send a message outward, the Sinking Dragon Pass would have inevitably been breached, and a holocaust would have arisen as a result …… He was the true savior of this holocaust.
When Lin Qiye saw Lu Qiu’s body on the outer wall, he heard his companion say that he had a son in a rebellious stage, named Lu Baoyu. At that time, Lin Qiye still thought that if he had the chance to run into his descendant, he could help in some way.
But he never expected that seeing the name Lu Baoyu once again would actually be on the list of the Night’s Watch recruits’ intensive training.
”How did he come into contact with the Night’s Watch?” Lin Qiye asked suspiciously, “Did his father tell him about the Night’s Watch?”
”No.” Yuan Gang shook his head, “You know the nature of the work of the Night’s Watch, before he was transferred to the Sinking Dragon Pass, his father, Lu Qiu, was stationed in other cities all year round, and because he was far from home and didn’t know when he would be sacrificed, he rarely had the chance to go home, the last time he went home to visit his wife and children would have been three years ago… …
This resulted in Lu Baoyu not seeing his father even a few times after he was born, growing up in an environment not much different from a single parent family.
In his eyes, his father is a wife abandonment scum, he so has been harboring hatred for his father to grow up, plus to the time of youthful rebellion, the character is more violent, so often do some …… out of the ordinary things.
Because of various reasons, he was discouraged by the school, was surrounded by relatives and friends look down on, in a rage, he secretly pried open his father’s safe, ready to take some money to leave home.
It was this prying that allowed him to discover the Vigilantes’ posting documents that Lu Qiu had hidden at home, as well as other related contracts.
After he knew about the existence of the Night’s Watch, he took part of his family’s money and left home with Lu Qiu’s documents and contracts …… Later on, it is not known what opportunity he got and became a Lucifer agent, and because of this, he came into contact with the existence of the Night’s Watch.”
Yuan Gang sighed and continued, “Originally, when we conducted a family background check, we didn’t intend to recruit him after finding out that his father was a Night’s Watchman, but his identity as a divine agent is just too special, and you’re well aware of the situation in Daxia right now, so we need his presence.”
Lin Qiye listened and nodded thoughtfully, “But then you guys received news that Lu Qiu was sacrificed on the frontline, so you felt that you shouldn’t involve his son?”
”There is this meaning.” Yuan Gang helplessly closed his eyes, “This boy always thought that as long as he entered the Night’s Watch, he would have a chance to find his father …… but he didn’t realize that just a few days ago, his father had already died in battle.
Our intention is to first disqualify him from becoming a member of the Night’s Watch this year, let him return home, and then see what he wants to do on his own after he learns of his father’s death.
If he still decides that he wants to join the Night’s Watch, two years later, we will once again enroll him in the Recruit Intensive Training Camp.”
”I understand.” Lin Qiye couldn’t help but sigh with emotion, “It seems like this kid has cost you guys a lot of effort ……”
”It’s my job to be responsible for each and every recruit, or else I’d be busy all day long, for what?” Yuan Gang smiled bitterly.
”By the way, I haven’t asked yet, why are you suddenly interested in divine agents?”
”I just sensed the aura of a fallen angel, so I was a bit puzzled.”
”I see, after all, the one you’re acting as an agent is …… ” Yuan Gang froze, as if he thought of something, his brows slightly wrinkled, “If I remember correctly, Michael and Lucifer, are mortal enemies? ”
”Uh-huh.”
”No wonder …… this will have any effect on you, will it have any effect on you?”
”Will not.” Lin Qiye paused for a moment, “At least not for the time being ……”
Although Michael and Lucifer were mortal enemies, but this was only a personal relationship between the two, in terms of camp, both of them were existences in the neutral camp, Lucifer had always been suppressed by Michael under the volcano, and had never posed any threat to Daxia, so Lucifer’s agent was only an agent in Daxia’s eyes, and was not threatening.
In the eyes of the Grand Xia, Lin Qiye and Lu Baoyu, were both agents of the Neutral God.
However, in their eyes of each other, the other carried the will of a hostile god and was an enemy, not a friend.
Grand Xia wouldn’t stifle the existence of an exceptionally gifted agent because of a personal vendetta between a blazing angel and a fallen angel, nor would it reject Lu Baoyu’s joining because of a Lin Qiye’s camp position.
Lin Qiye didn’t know what kind of contract Lu Baoyu had signed with Lucifer as Lucifer’s agent, but he always felt …… that perhaps the conditions that Lucifer had opened up had something to do with himself.
Lin Qiye’s heart was suddenly mixed.
From his personal point of view, Lu Baoyu is definitely a hostile existence that possesses a threat, and it is best to take advantage of the fact that he is still weak and pathetic, and pinch him to death with a single finger, so as to save any variables from appearing in the future.
But it is …… biased that he is the son of the martyr Lu Qiu, and he is also a pending Vigilant recruit.
Although he and Lu Qiu are not familiar, and even only met once and said two words …… But Lu Qiu, after all, used his own life to carry a great calamity for the Daxia behind him, and although he is weak, he is a hero just like Zhao Kongcheng, Chen Muye, and even Ye Fan.
Would he go and kill Zhao Kongcheng’s son?
No way, never.
Even if Lu Baoyu wasn’t a new recruit of the Night’s Watch anymore, for him to go out and kill this child now, he couldn’t do it.
Exactly how to deal with this Lu Baoyu …… Lin Qiye still had to think about it.
”I know, thank you instructor.” Lin Qiye sighed and took a step toward the outside.
Inside the intensive training camp.
A team of recruits flew down the road, and the terrified screams of other recruits came from all different directions.
The faces of these recruits turned green.
”What the hell is going on? Why are there screams everywhere?”
”I don’t know! Isn’t it just a competition? As for screaming like it’s a life and death crisis?”
”Yeah, if you don’t know, you’d think that the enemy has already killed us.”
”That said, we’ve been running for so long, how come we haven’t even seen a single person from the [Night Curtain] squad?”
”……”
In the midst of the chaotic scene, the gazes of the three recruits quietly glanced at each other and silently came together.
”What’s the situation? This time’s mapping test, how come it’s not quite the same as what we thought?” A very young looking recruit frowned slightly, “How come there’s still a [Night Curtain] squad interfering?”
”This is normal.” Another dry and thin recruit furtively looked around, after making sure that no one was paying attention to them, he continued, “After all, there are more than six hundred recruits this time, it’s hard for the instructors to hold down the field, it’s just reasonable to send a special squad over to apply pressure, don’t be too sensitive.”
”Yes yes yes, didn’t the [Mask] squad come over in previous years as well?” A female recruit nodded in favor.
The tender recruit hesitated for a moment, “Won’t the [Night Curtain] squad intervening have an impact on our plans?”
