In the bathroom, Zhu Jue stood under the shower head, and cold water washed his whole body, suppressing the restlessness in his heart and mind.
"No wonder the gentleman was so eager to pursue "Naket's Manuscript" before. It turned out that he already had similar texts in his hands. It seems that he should have known through some way that there is a terrifying power hidden in these special books. But he himself could not read the books in the box at will, so he could only substitute for other texts..."
Although his intuition told Zhu Jue not to touch too much of the text in the box, who is he? When he first saw "The Book of De Chian", he had the same feeling. He still didn't want to read it, and occasionally he could hold it and sleep together.
But then again, Zhu Jue left the bathroom in his nightgown and looked at the books on the low table, and soon realized that he might have obtained a book that is similar in nature to the Book of De Chian, but the power it contains must be far beyond the former.
Why is this weird book far surpassing the Book of De Chian?
The reason is very simple. "The Book of De Chian" was written by Flo, and the contents are already incomplete. Although this book is also a fragment (Zhu Jue turned to the end and found that the back is not a cover, but a brown-yellow page), the contents now seem to be very likely to be complete.
And somehow, Zhu Jue always thought in his heart that the things recorded in this book should be more advanced than "The Book of De Chian", otherwise he would not have made him feel this strange.
Zhu Jue didn't know whether this was a good or a bad thing. Atal once told him that knowledge is power and it also brought extremely terrifying things.
He didn't care about this sentence at the time, and always felt that Atal was fooling himself with plausible words. However, after this period, Zhu Jue's two trances in Hesai Town clearly told him that reading these books would indeed have some bad effects on him, and even from a certain perspective, it might be fatal.
"Studying is indeed a worry-free thing."
Looking at the yellow seal on the cover, after a long time, Zhu Jue could only wave his hand to put it into the space ring. Even though the vision just now proved that the power of the wind might be hidden in this book, Zhu Jue still chose to put away the residual book first.
He is not a naughty man. Why is my life in my own hands? I know there is a tiger in the mountain, but I tend to go to the tiger mountain and put it to death before I live...
These words sound pretty handsome, but if you think about it carefully, most of the words are shouted in desperate situations. I feel that I am living a good life now and have time to prepare. If you have to force yourself to die, it will be boring.
He also packed the rest of the things and the space handbag into the space ring, and Zhu Jue sat on the sofa and breathed incense until the singing in his mind dissipated.
......
In the private hall in the center of Shuguang City, Zhu Jue sat opposite a group of managers, clearly hundreds of meters high. There were several flower beds and clean trees on the platform outside the window. The morning sunlight fell just right on their branches. The green plants were more simple and elegant than any kind of decoration.
This is the living place for senior citizens in Shuguang City, or it can be said to be an entertainment city. In comparison, Watson District can only be regarded as a dilapidated small shopping mall.
But Zhu Jue is obviously not energetic now, and he doesn't have much time to appreciate the "heart of Dawn City" and "the facade of the super city". He just leans on the sofa, his eyes are on the sky outside, and his whole body is in an empty posture.
"Mr. Gentleman... Mr. Gentleman?"
The black swan stood behind Zhu Jue who had changed into a gentlemanly appearance and kept reminding him.
"Um?"
Zhu Jue, who suddenly woke up, stroked his forehead with some discomfort, then looked awkwardly at the black suits sitting in front of him, and then said,
"Sorry, I haven't had a good rest in the past few days."
The sequelae caused by the residual book found in the space ring of the book last night was not eliminated. Even though Zhu Jue just looked around casually at that time, it still caused a considerable burden on his spirit.
Although he withstood the spiritual impact with his strong soul, some sequelae were inevitably present, so he was a little absent-minded at today's signing ceremony.
Of course, Zhu Jue's current external image is gentleman, so even if he falls asleep in front of these managers, no one dares to say anything.
Since he has decided to accept all the assets of the gentleman, Zhu Jue's character must be done earlier, the better. Therefore, the Black Swan summoned the managers responsible for all matters early in order to allow Zhu Jue to come forward and sign these documents at once, saving another lot of trouble.
Zhu Jue knew nothing about the assets of the companies mentioned in those documents, so most of the time, the black swan gave him guidance, and then he was only responsible for signing the real name of the gentleman.
The whole process did not last long, because when the gentleman acquired these assets, he emphasized absolute control, which means that if he wanted to use these things, he would do it in one sentence, and no one could interfere. It is naturally not difficult to sell it now.
What's more, Black Swan now has these professional managers to help, and coupled with the convenient online transactions in this era, it is natural to have fast efficiency. Zhu Jue just needs to watch the numbers in his bank account soar at a terrifying speed.
But Zhu Jue didn't care much about these things. He didn't even ask what assets the Black Swan had left or what they sold, but just waved his hand to let her deal with it with it with all his power.
It is naturally a good thing to have money. You can help in many places, but it is not enough to make Zhu Jue ecstatic. He clearly knows that it is not too easy for him to make money now. In fact, he made enough money five years ago. Now this number may be a little larger, but in his opinion, it is a level that cannot be spent, so there is no difference.
Compared with the real world assets accumulated by these gentlemen, Zhu Jue actually cared more about those things in the fantasy dreams.
When all the managers left, Zhu Jue got up and walked to the flowerbed outside, turned around and glanced at the black swan. The latter understood and immediately followed.
"There's something, about a book in the Gentleman's Space Ring...you know?"
Zhu Jue is still quite concerned about the origin of the book. He can become a gentleman, but cannot obtain his memory. The remaining half is something Zhu Jue must get, and he can only hope that the black swan will know some inside information.
Obviously, Zhu Jue Gao saw the importance of the black swan under the gentleman's hands. It was such a very special item. The black swan had never been exposed to it. When Zhu Jue asked about it now, she just looked back with a puzzled look on her face, probably hoping that Zhu Jue would say it more clearly.
"Forget it, let's talk about something else. Is there any reply from the Dreamland Tour?"
The existence of that book is secret after all, and Zhu Jue couldn't say it too clearly. When he saw the black swan, Zhu Jue gave up on this topic and instead mentioned another thing. "They were surprised by the fact that you replaced the gentleman, but they still expressed their willingness to continue to cooperate and hope to meet you...I think they want to deepen their cooperation."
The Black Swan is very fast in acting as a character, and there is actually no need to make any changes. It is just to shift the original attitude towards gentlemen to Zhu Jue.
However, there was a lot of chaos after receiving the Black Swan message from the Dream Journey last night. You should know that after talking to Zhu Jue, the team of the Dream Journey Group at Shuguang City almost immediately began to prepare. On the one hand, they looked for topics that could argue with the gentleman for a long time, and on the other hand, they began to prepare for the gentleman to intervene as soon as he sought help and forced him to cooperate with his own side.
Who would have thought that the discussions on their own were so hot that they would kill people without saying a word...
Then what to do!
In the end, he could only cancel the mission and try to establish a certain connection with the new space sect, but the matter was still different from before. Zhu Jue told them that he had killed the Dream Eater undoubtedly made the Dream Brigade think that he could win him over, so now he can't wait to meet before Zhu Jue gains a firm foothold.
It’s just something they can think of, Zhu Jue can naturally think of it too.
"I won't meet for the time being, I have to go to the dreamland first and use the method of dreaming medicine... I know that the gentleman has a treasure called the scorching box in his hand. Where is it?"
The matter in the real world has been dealt with part of it. The Chamber of Commerce in the Fantasy Dreamland is still waiting for Zhu Jue to receive it. He has not forgotten what he had heard before in Egret Square. Things that could be so thoughtful of by the dream eater will definitely not be bad.
When she heard the scorching box, the black swan's expression stopped, and when she looked at Zhu Jue, she became a little more awe. She still didn't understand how Zhu Jue found a gentleman and solved the latter in such a short time. She couldn't even understand the secrets that were only known to her and the gentleman, but could be said by Zhu Jue as a common occurrence.
Of course, Zhu Jue would not tell the Black Swan about these things. Maintaining a sense of mystery and distance is exactly what he wants.
"Because of the particularity of the Scarlet Box, the gentleman kept it in the Harbour of Dilas."
"I understand, next you have to teach me how to use the dream medicine. I will go to Dilas Harbour tonight...oh, it's a good place."
Elder Atal had previously told Zhu Jue that if he wanted to seek a powerful method, the harbor was mixed with people, which would be a good place. Unexpectedly, there was another reason now, and with the help of the dream medicine, he even saved time to travel.
"The dream eater is asking us for the scorching box. This time they will come to the door. Should they transfer the scorching box first?"
Black Swan thinks it is better to remind me.
"Dream Eater?"
Zhu Jue raised his eyebrows and continued without looking back.
