C688 Yuan Ming's Invitation
C688 Yuan Ming's Invitation
Looh Men's hard work paid off. Five days later, Looh Men returned to the hotel and found Chu Tian.
"It seems that your guess is correct. I heard that not long ago, I came to Machine Star. It seems like I caught someone. I'm afraid that it should be Jian Lin. But now that the latter is imprisoned, I'm afraid it won't be that easy for us to rescue him." Looh Men said.
"Leave the matter of rescuing him to me. Just tell me where he is imprisoned." Chu Tian said.
"Do you think I'm a coward? You can't do it by yourself. Jian Lin must be locked at the core of the earth. That place has layers of security and mechanisms. Normally, only the higher ups of Machine Star can enter that place. If you barge in recklessly, you will surely die." Looh Men said.
Chu Tian remained silent. Since Looh Men had made such a judgment, it was obvious that this dungeon was not as simple as it seemed. When he heard the higher ups Looh Men mentioned, he also thought of someone.
"Looh Men, since you are a distinguished guest of Machine Star, you should know about Misi as well. He should be one of the higher ups of Machine Star. I think we might be able to put in some effort from him." Chu Tian said.
Looh Men was even more shocked when he heard this. He frowned and looked at Chu Tian in confusion.
"Are you very familiar with the ruler of Machine Star?" Looh Men asked.
"Ruler?" Chu Tian was also stunned. He originally thought that the person Hsing Kongxue asked them to look for should be the higher ups of Machine Star. This way, it would be enough to help the crisis of Arcane Magic Star. However, the person they wanted to meet was actually such a powerful person.
"You don't even know who he is? How did you know about the ruler of Machine Star, Misi? I should be considered a person who is on the same side as you now. At least I can trust him. " Looh Men said. He could tell that Chu Tian was suspicious of him. This was human nature, and he didn't really care about it.
"Jian Lin and I are mercenaries. We got a commission from Hsing Kongxue, the lady boss of Star Universe Hall. We came to Machine Star to deliver a letter, but the letter is in Jian Lin's hands now. I'm afraid that it has also fallen into the hands of the enemy. " Chu Tian said.
"So that's how it is. If there was that letter, perhaps things would be much easier. Even if I can get you the chance to meet Misi, I'm afraid that your words won't be easily believed." Looh Men sighed.
Just like what Looh Men had said, it was impossible for someone with high status to trust him easily.
"But you don't have to worry about that. I have also investigated the person behind this matter. I heard that it was Yuan Ming who wanted to capture Jian Lin. He was one of the higher ups of Machine Star. If you are talking about the existence of that letter... However, this letter might have already been destroyed. " Looh Men said.
" Don't worry about this. I believe that the other party won't easily destroy this letter. Perhaps there is some secret hidden behind the letter. The other party must also want to know about it. Therefore, before we understand everything, we should leave this thing behind. As long as we can obtain the envelope, at that time, they would be able to change the situation by meeting Misi. "Chu Tiandao.
"If that's the case, then follow me. Actually, your luck is pretty good. I just happened to receive an invitation from Yuan Ming. I will be invited to his residence. At that time, I might be able to find some clues. " Looh Men said.
Chu Tian didn't think that the opportunity would come so soon. He gave Looh Men a strange look.
"It doesn't matter if you doubt me, but what I said is true. As for what I am doing in Machine Star, I can't tell you. After all, this is the privacy of the client. Because of this, I am treated as an honored guest. Therefore, it's normal for me to attend banquets. " Looh Men said.
Seeing Looh Men, although he knew that the latter might have hidden some truth, at least Chu Tian did not think that the latter would harm him. Now, Looh Men's suggestion was the best choice. Chu Tian didn't want to fight head on with Machine Star. First of all, it didn't matter if they could escape from the Machine Star successfully.
Their purpose of coming here this time was to call for reinforcements. If they fled now, the matter of calling for reinforcements would naturally fall apart. If the Arcane Magic Star failed, Chu Tian wouldn't be able to borrow the Star Universe Hall's power to find the solution to the Dao Rune curse.
Night slowly descended. Chu Tian followed behind Looh Men. After that, he walked out of the hotel. This time, as Looh Men's follower, he would participate in this banquet. Just as they left the room, a bright luxury car was waiting for them.
"Both of you come with me. The patriarch has been waiting for you for a long time." A woman respectfully said.
Chu Tian was slightly stunned. This proved that the female was the one who had been his guide. The latter was very likely to be Yuan Ming's person. Did the latter coincidentally become his guide, or did Yuan Ming discover him beforehand?
Chu Tian secretly became cautious. However, there was no emotion circulating on his body. Any fluctuation of emotion would be detected by the latter. The Robot possessed such a superb skill.
"Mr. Chu Tian, we meet again. I was unable to introduce myself properly last time. My name is Xiaoqi. Please advise me." The woman smiled and extended her palm towards Chu Tian. The latter had the appearance of a peerless beauty. Plus, such a smile made it impossible for people to have any temper.
At this moment, Looh Men had already taken a step forward and grabbed the girl's palm. There was a smile on his face.
"Miss Xiaoqi, this is a very impolite action. Chu Tian is also my friend. I'm afraid it won't be good for you to play tricks on my friend like this. I know all the skills of your Robot very well. Don't forget that my name is the number one craftsman in the starry sky. " Looh Men said.
Chu Tian was startled when he heard this. He did not expect that there was such a threat hidden in the smiling handshake just now. Even he was almost bewitched by the harmless smile of the latter just now.
Chu Tian became even more cautious in his heart. These Robots were far more troublesome than he had imagined. Due to their high level of civilization, it was very difficult to guess what kind of methods they had.
The smile on Xiaoqi's face did not change after she heard Looh Men's words. However, she had already retracted her hand at this moment.
"Mr. Looh Men, you misunderstood. I just wanted to shake hands with you out of goodwill. Please follow me." After that, she personally opened the door for Chu Tian and Looh Men.
After the two of them got into the car, the car headed towards the depths of town. Chu Tian's eyes looked at the scenery outside. He was not good at dealing with these Robots. He might as well let Looh Men handle these matters. This way, Chu Tian would be able to relax a little.
It didn't take long for Chu Tian and Looh Men to arrive at a manor. After they got off the carriage, Chu Tian saw a figure in front of him. It was the man with Jian Lin's Jade Token that the two of them had found earlier.
Since the latter had appeared in this manor, there was no doubt that he was working for Yuan Ming. After considering the relationship between them, Chu Tian felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. Perhaps his identity had already been exposed.
It was only because of Looh Men that they couldn't make a move against Chu Tian.
"Please follow me. I will bring you to see Master now." The man said respectfully.
The two of them followed behind the man naturally. No matter the identity of the latter, if they wanted to know everything, they could only find the master of the latter, Yuan Ming.
Chu Tian and Looh Men were brought to the hall. After this, the man and Xiaoqi both took their leave and left the room. Currently, only Chu Tian and Looh Men were left in the hall.
