"Sigh! Am I not trying my best here too? I originally wanted to buy an A-level Defense Armor for protection, but I’ve heard they are difficult to make, and only a limited number are sold externally each year..."

Qian Qi crossed her hands in front of her, looking rather helpless and troubled, "If I could get my hands on an A-level Defense Armor..."

"That’s absolutely no problem! We, the Sikong family, can get it for you!" Sikong Lin quickly said, then shook his head, "No, an A-level Defense Armor is still too unsafe, let think..."

Sikong Lin stood up and paced back and forth a few tis, then resolutely said, "My wife wore an S-level Defense Armor when she was a Commander, she doesn’t need it for now, you can borrow it for use. Hmm... this should be more secure!"

Unexpectedly, there’s a pleasant surprise, Qian Qi’s mouth almost reached her ears, but when Sikong Lin turned back, she quickly restrained her smile, nodded solemnly, "Indeed, this certainly increases the chances of a safe return."

"However..." Qian Qi appeared troubled again, "I am also in urgent need of an A-level Weapon right now..."

"A-level Weapon, what kind do you need?" Sikong Lin quickly pondered, fearing Qian Qi might die outside, racking his brains to help her think of ideas, "I have a few in my collection, there’s a Long Blade, a Long Staff, a Wolf Fang Club, and a Spear."

"Hmm..." Qian Qi truly doesn’t know which one to choose, she originally just wanted to use whatever was available, but with so many options now...

She unabashedly said, "Can I take a look?"

"Of course! Co with !" Sikong Lin turned around and said, "I’ll give you a tour, maybe you’ll find sothing you need."

"Since Director Sikong is so hospitable, I won’t stand on ceremony." Qian Qi downed a cup of tea, grabbed a peach from the nearby fruit plate, and followed Sikong Lin towards the basent.

"It’s only proper, but if I may ask, Qian, is there sothing you need at the Sealed City at this ti?"

Sikong Lin asked as he walked, he genuinely couldn’t figure out why a student like Qian Qi needed to go to such a dangerous place, "If you don’t mind, I can send Awakened Warriors to protect you."

Even with Defense Armor and an A-level knife, Sikong Lin was still worried about Qian Qi’s safety, after all, if she dies, Shangguan Qing’s condition cannot be cured...

If it weren’t for Sikong Wang being friendly with her, he might have forcibly bought or made her hand over the formula for the dication by now.

"That’s not convenient to disclose." Qian Qi bit into the peach, her smile faded a bit with a hint of detachnt, "Since I dare to go, I must have made all the necessary preparations. Director Sikong need not worry too much."

Seeing Qian Qi clamming up about the purpose of her trip to the Sealed City, Sikong Lin could sense her strong-willed personality, so he didn’t ntion it again and led her into the underground collection room.

There are many collection rooms in the Sikong family, Sikong Lin led Qian Qi to the front of one room, scanned the iris, and opened the door to Collection Room 7.

As soon as she entered, Qian Qi could see many weapons and Defense Armors displayed in glass cabinets.

So weapons looked aged, with blades covered with dried blood stains and bite marks from Magic Beasts, so were left only with half-broken pieces, and those Defense Armors appeared as re clothing shapes, the craftsmanship was quite rudintary, like sothing from the last century.

"These are relics left by heroes who made great contributions but ultimately sacrificed during the turbulent tis of the instances."

Sikong Lin stayed in front of a glass cabinet, gently stroking it, "My wife loves collecting the weapons of these heroic figures, she also has a hero’s dream, otherwise she wouldn’t have so soon..."

Beco a slave to Spiritual Power Disorder, hovering in a sunless hospital room, ultimately dying without consciousness.

Qian Qi chewed the peach at in her cheeks, curiously asked, "Can’t these last-century Defense Armors be used anymore?"

"Hmm, there wasn’t good preservation technology at that ti, even if it’s A-level Magic Beast, the leather armor would rot over ti and can no longer provide defense."

Sikong Lin turned to another corner, "Qian, co over, take a look, here are so new A-level Weapons I have collected."

Qian Qi ran over, seeing in front of Sikong Lin a recessed glass cabinet, inside were several weapons, all marked with the letter "A".

"Which one should we take, baby?" Qian Qi secretly asked the system, she had only used a Long Blade before, and to be honest, it wasn’t very handy.

[I think this Wolf Fang Club suits your vibe ^_^]

Qian Qi glanced at the black Wolf Fang Club inside the cabinet wall, her face imdiately full of rejection, "That’s too wild! It doesn’t match my gentle and graceful vibe!"

[? Are you misunderstanding yourself?]

"I want this stick." Qian Qi pointed at the Long Staff, about 2 ters long, silver-black throughout inside the cabinet wall, "It’s extendable, convenient for carrying."

Unexpectedly, Qian Qi chose the Strength Type A-level Long Staff, Sikong Lin asked not so sure, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, certain!" Qian Qi nodded like a pecking chick, "It’s low-key, suits !"

"Alright then..." Sikong Lin sowhat uneasily took out the Long Staff, also fetched two A-level Daggers and a roll of approximately 200 ters long A-level Long Rope from a nearby drawer and handed them to Qian Qi, "Qian, take these as well, one more weapon is one more guarantee!"

Qian Qi’s eyes widened imdiately, the previous hint of distance disappeared, she held half a peach between her teeth, grasped Sikong Lin’s hands with both her hands gratefully, sincerely said, "Uncle Sikong, you’re such a great silver! I’ll definitely co often in the future!"

Sikong Lin: ...

Coming often is fine, but... could you not grasp my hands with yours full of peach juice!!!

"Let’s go, grab the Defense Armor next door." Sikong Lin hopelessly led Qian Qi to the neighboring Collection Room 8, and imdiately began searching for a suitable A-level Defense Armor like a prairie dog digging.

"My wife and you have very different body sizes, although Defense Armor has a body-fitting function, I’m afraid it cannot fully fit your body..."

After rummaging around, Sikong Lin finally pulled out a box and opened it, "This A-level Defense Armor is the thickest, it should prop up her set of S-level Defense Armor."

"Try it on first." After that, he stepped out of the door and quickly brought Shangguan Qing’s S-level Defense Armor, "Try this one too."

Qian Qi put on both sets of Defense Armor and tugged the shrink clothes rope, Shangguan Qing’s S-level Defense Armor adhered to her body.

She tried moving a bit; except for so looseness at the foot, everything else was quite fitting.

"How is it?" Sikong Lin asked.

"Hmm, doesn’t hinder walking." Qian Qi wasn’t planning to rely on speed to outrun B-level Magic Beasts, so as long as walking is unhindered, it’s fine.

Only then did Sikong Lin feel at ease, "I happen to also have sothing to do at the Sealed City, since we’re on the sa road, how about traveling together?"

"Hmm, that’s fine~" Having an A-level Commander as a bodyguard on the road is indeed a good idea; they can part ways upon reaching the Sealed City.

The two left the basent, returned to the hall, seeing Sikong Wang already preparing French pastries.

Qian Qi, drooling, tasted one and imdiately gave a thumbs-up, "Delicious!"

"That’s good." Sikong Wang couldn’t help but breathe lightly, smiling, "What were you up to just now?"

"I’m going to the Sealed City to take care of so things, your dad gave so protective gear." Qian Qi gestured to the silver box in her hand, "I’m leaving shortly."

"So soon? Wait a mont!" Sikong Wang quickly turned around to find a small paper box, packed so French pastries from the side into it, and handed it to Qian Qi, "Take these with you to eat on the road."

"But why are you going to the Sealed City?" Sikong Wang asked curiously, "I’ve heard it’s quite dangerous there, an A-level Magic Beast Tide could erupt at any ti; wouldn’t it be too dangerous for you to go alone? How about I go with you?"

"Ahem!" Sikong Lin beside him quickly cleared his throat, "You, a D-level Beast Master, what can you accomplish there!"

"I’m at least an S-Class Spiritual Awakened!" Sikong Wang frowned imdiately, being blocked by Sikong Lin, he wasn’t afraid of losing face in front of Qian Qi anymore since she had seen him at his most embarrassing and saved his life, so he directly complained, "Father, don’t tell you’re still thinking of keeping locked up at ho reading books!"

Now there’s already a redy for Spiritual Power Disorder, he can fully pursue his ideals!

And even without the redy, he could live up to 50 by exhausting his spiritual power completely!

"You child!" Sikong Lin’s expression was slightly severe, still disagreeing with Sikong Wang going to the Sealed City; he absolutely didn’t understand how chaotic things are there! "You are inexperienced, once there you’ll only be more of a hindrance!"

"It’s not certain that a Magic Beast Tide will occur..." Sikong Wang muttered, seeing Sikong Lin raise his hand to hit him, he promptly hid behind Qian Qi, complained, "Qiqi, look at my dad!"

Qian Qi: ...

Why do I have to look at your dad? I don’t want to look at your dad; please resolve your family issues on your own!
