I Have a Dice Left by a God

Chapter 156: Further Waves of Turbulence


In the early hours, Li Xin arrived at the destination ahead of time. He was quite familiar with this area, having worked here for a while. Even if he encountered any danger, there were many ways to escape.

Didia appeared punctually within sight, looking very cautious. When he reached the dock warehouse, he was also looking around.

"No need to look, there's no one." Li Xin appeared silently in front of Didia.

Seeing Li Xin, Didia let out a sigh of relief. "Didn't we agree not to contact each other recently?"

"Are you still going on with it? Prince Achilles has been criticized. Simmons and Celestia have returned to prepare for battle." Li Xin lit a cigar. "Do you smoke?"

Didia shook his head. "I'm not Simmons, and only glory can wash away my family's shame. However, the Hunting Enjoyment Club is very wary of me and even sent a woman to tempt me."

"A woman who can tempt you must not have a simple identity."

Didia nodded. "The legitimate daughter of Marquis William, a core member of the Hunting Enjoyment Club. It feels like they want an alliance by marriage. I suspect that without accepting, I won't be able to join. Also, the president of the Hunting Enjoyment Club is Princess Amosa."

Didia is a Knight, with his own beliefs. The beauty trap is certainly useful to him, but sending Sally is indeed a bit counterproductive. Although Sally pretends to be a lady, some things in her bones cannot be changed, which Didia particularly dislikes. He is just focused on cultivation and not a naive young man.

Especially being well aware of the opponent's intentions, this beauty trap was used quite presumptuously. The kind of woman who could make Didia intoxicated wouldn't just have an attractive exterior; rather, he managed to extract a lot of useful information during the interaction.

Li Xin could feel Didia's pressure. Involving Princess Amosa is no small matter. Everyone knows the Prince has only this one daughter, who is spoiled to the skies. So, to put it this way, the Princess never won a quarrel against the Commandery Princess, and some inadequacies have left Your Majesty feeling guilty, strictly forbidding the Princess from provoking Amosa. Didia and these nobles are very aware of this, just uncertain whether Princess Amosa is involved in this Dark Cuisine matter.

"If this matter involves Princess Amosa, or even higher levels, do you still want to continue?" Li Xin asked.

Didia hesitated, leaning against the wall with a bitter smile, shaking his head. "I don't know. I really don't know."

It turns out that executing justice is so difficult. Pure enthusiasm alone isn't enough. He spoke righteously but realized that he simply couldn't do it, feeling a bit stifled for a moment.

To Li Xin, this was a rational answer. Seeing Didia, Li Xin was also hesitant about whether to continue. Now, he decided to go on, patted Didia's shoulder, and smiled, "What are you thinking about? It's not just your business. Our target is the horrifying organ murderer, a Fallen of the Dark Cuisine branch. The other matters don't concern us. Even if there is truth, it's up to the higher-ups to decide how to handle it. We must trust the just King. The case has new developments; you don't need to risk entering the Hunting Enjoyment Club anymore. However, you can feign compliance with that woman to see if you can extract more information. Use your charm."

Didia raised his eyebrows upon hearing this. "What's the new clue?"

Li Xin talked about the Gourmet Association's matters, as well as the conflict between Dark Cuisine and Gourmet Cuisine. "Have you gone to the Lanuo Ivory Bay Restaurant with others before? Were there any unusual circumstances?"

"If someone has such symptoms, tell Achilles, and we'd have fulfilled our duty. How to handle the rest is up to him and the Funeral Attendant." Li Xin mentioned. Hearing about Princess Amosa, Li Xin didn't want to delve too deeply either, fearing it might involve the highest levels of the royal family; it's like poking a hole in the sky.

Didia was a bit stunned, pondering for a while, and couldn't help shaking his head. "Is this pattern reliable? When Anthony returned, we went to eat, and there were no abnormalities. Oh, right, Sally also went, Sally William, the woman sent by the Hunting Enjoyment Club. She even boasted yesterday about the club's benefits, that such a restaurant could be visited freely without reservation. All core members of the Hunting Enjoyment Club have been there."

Li Xin was also stunned; Didia looked at Li Xin, and the two exchanged glances,

A chill surged in Li Xin's heart, causing the hairs on his arms to stand up, and his stomach churned.

Didia also noticed Li Xin's unusual reaction. "Brother Li, what's wrong with you?"

"Didia, you didn't come today. Remember this, don't contact the Hunting Enjoyment Club anymore. Be like Simmons and say you're focusing entirely on preparing for the Glory Battle. For urgent matters, you can use the Messenger to contact." Li Xin said. "Also, be very careful with food."

"I don't want to back down." Didia was a Knight, and Knights need to possess the spirit and soul to face challenges. Otherwise, their cultivation might regress instead of progressing. He was destined to become a Battle Angel.

"This isn't backing down; it's waiting for the Prince's next plan. Rash actions might ruin things. I think as a Knight, obeying orders is also very important." Li Xin said. "If there are further plans, I will definitely inform you."

"What should I do if Sally looks for me?"

"You are following the aloof and divine route, so being cold to her is normal. Let her wait for a while; the reasons are ample anyway." Li Xin said. It's a delaying tactic, feeling that these matters will have outcomes during the Glory Battle.

Didia nodded in agreement. He needed to break through his inner barriers, choose the camp of Prince Achilles. Though driven by faith and acceptance of ideals, there was also the aspect of the path. He was walking the Knightly Path, and if he doubted himself, then there would be no future. For the Nasser Clan, the importance of a Battle Angel surpasses everything.

Li Xin and Didia parted, and after pondering for a while, he put away the cigarette he had half-smoked and spread his form, quickly heading towards Christie's residence.

At 109, No. 88, Mahler Street, Christie was sleeping soundly when suddenly the window moved, and a shadow darted in. However, Christie on the bed was gone the next moment. Then, Li Xin felt a cool sensation on his neck — a sharp dagger.

"Sister, it's me." Li Xin quickly said.

"I knew it was you, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to speak." Christie also sighed in relief. Luckily, she reacted quickly; otherwise, the knife would have already been used.

"Not necessarily," Li Xin chuckled. Christie paid no attention to his male competitiveness and lit the lamp.

"Why did you suddenly come?" Christie looked at Li Xin. Although surprised, she wasn't angry. She understood the feeling and smiled dotingly. "Missed me?"

"Missing you is the main reason, and there's also a little issue." Li Xin recounted his conversation with Didia earlier. Hearing this, Christie's face also changed drastically, and any emotions of tenderness vanished.
