Chapter 235: Returning Home
Chapter 235: Returning Home
Li Wei couldn't help but become surprised when Linda displayed the pictures to him because these buildings were inside the old city, which were left barren.
"Miss Linda, when did you start to rebuild the old city?" he inquired with a curious look as he didn't see any work being done a few days ago or even today.
"Mr. Li, the old city started getting rebuilt from last night with city function, barriers and golems; that's why people didn't see anything or heard any noises."
"Also, the whole work would only take a week to complete like this, so don't worry about anyone getting annoyed by the rebuilding process," Linda explained calmly.
Hearing her, Li Wei understood and decided to pay a visit at night to see how those golems worked.
After thinking this, he once again focused his attention on buildings.
"Miss Linda, I will buy these six buildings and also No. 3 villa," he stated, pointing at pictures.
"Understood, Mr. Li. Please wait a little, I will immediately begin the procedures," Linda replied as she took out the deed seal before giving it to him for signing.
Li Wei didn't hesitate and directly signed every deed before paying 3 billion coins for six buildings and 180 million coins for Villa No. 3.
After this, a few systematic recorded voices rang out in his mind, declaring he had bought the properties.
Linda watched him transfer the money without hesitation and became stunned.
'He is really rich,' she thought with a gulp and wondered how she should butter him up; however, no plan came to her mind.
'No, I can't give up on Loli Goddess; even if I must walk through sea of flames,' she thought with determination when suddenly she heard Li Wei's voice.
"Miss Linda, thanks for your help. I will take my leave now," he informed, as he was done with everything here.
Hearing him, Linda panicked.
"Wait, Mr. Li!" she shouted without thinking anything.
Li Wei was stunned at this and looked at her with a question.
"Umm, Mr. Li, well, do you know when Lo-Ahem, when Miss Margaret is coming in Valeria City?" she inquired with a red face.
Li Wei was stunned watching her like this and wondered what she was up to.
"Miss Linda, why do you need to know this?" he inquired with vigilance.
No matter what, he won't sell someone's information, especially when the person looks like a child.
Watching his vigilant look, Linda knew she messed up a little, so she hurriedly explained.
"Mr. Li, you might not know, but the Blue Boon Party is very famous among us women, and I always wanted to join them."
"It's just that they recruit very rarely, and the one who does it is Miss Margaret," she clarified with an expectant look.
However, she didn't tell everything, like how the Blue Moon party treats Margaret as a kid and always teases her, getting on the nerves.
Linda also wanted to do it; after all, Margaret was just too cute like a child, which made her motherly love come out.
Li Wei didn't know this, but he felt something was amiss here.
'Why is she so excited?' he thought with a stunned look before speaking.
"Miss Linda, I don't know when Miss Margret will come here, but the chances of her coming to Valeria City are higher as the earth is connected here."
"So, you can hope to see her in the future" he replied, not promising anything.
Hearing him Linda was disappointed nevertheless; she nodded happily, knowing her goddess would be coming here in the future.
After this, Li Wei didn't stay here anymore and directly returned home.
"What a long day," he commented with a tired look as he opened the door.
"Brother Li!" Lily shouted, jumping into his arms the moment she saw him.
"You little girl getting naughty again," Li Wei chided, pinching her small nose.
In response, Lily stuck her tongue out. Your journey continues with ???
"Brother Li, why did you come so late? Sister Lyla had already come back an hour ago," she inquired with a pout as she pulled him inside.
"Lily, I was busy doing some things; that's why I am late. By the way everyone is training, so why are you lazing around?" he inquired squeezing her soft cheeks.
"Mhmm, brother Li, I am not lazing around; I just came to greet you after noticing your arrival," Lily complained with a resentful look, making Li Wei chuckle at her.
"I see then you should go back and train; also, no need to greet me next time if you are busy," he replied, ruffling her hair.
"Mhhm, okay, I will go then," Lily replied with a nod before disappearing with teleportation.
After she left, Li Wei returned to his room and opened his system panel.
"It's time to kill the clone," he muttered as he looked at his locked level.
It was at level 101, which allowed him to use level 90 and below skills.
Because of this, he was able to have three clones.
However, if he changed the level lock to below level 101, the level of his skills, which he can use, would drop to level 70.
Which means his 'Shadow Clone' skill would only allow two clones to exist.
Because Diablo was the third clone, it would be the first one to disappear without having any connection to him and leaving any traces.
Thinking of this, Li Wei felt pity for the old man as he was guarding his clone for nothing.
However, he didn't hesitate and directly locked his level at 99.
A flash of light surrounded him when he locked his level.
After that, a sudden sense of powerlessness hit him while his connection with Diablo got broken without any warning, as if his third clone never existed.
***
Just as Li Wei locked his level at 99, Diablo, who was in the basement, started to disappear in shadows with silence.
However, no matter how silent the disappearing process was, it still alerted the old man, who instantly teleported here with a shocked look.
"The clone is merging with shadows," he said with a frown and irritation, clearly knowing it was impossible to stop this process. Also, the clone wasn't connected to the main body anymore, which means it was useless to keep the clone alive.
"Diablo, just who are you?" the old man muttered with a thoughtful look and looked in the direction of Li Wei's villa.
He had a feeling that he was Diablo.
However, when he thought of how his classes didn't match with Diablo, he dropped this idea.
