Chapter 88: Failed Cover-up
Girl-Friend!
As Cass uttered the word, Vino Celeste's body trembled!
"Sister!"
On the side Sophia immediately pointed out the woman's true identity, or else any further misunderstanding by Cass would really lead to trouble.
Cass instantly realized the low-level mistake he had made.
Of course, who would have thought that this noble knight would appear here? Moreover, they were still walking together with Han Dong, a two-star trainee knight, and they were still very close to each other.
"Celeste Knight, please forgive my rudeness. "Cass even bowed his head to admit his mistake.
"It's okay, I just happened to meet him on the road.
Seeing him wandering around here and acting like he doesn't know anything. Considering we had a collaboration not too long ago, as a senior, I introduced him to the rules related to buying and selling in the trading center.
Who knew that this kid was quite rich and went out of his way to buy a shoe worth 1200 copper coins?
Do you think so?"
"Yes, Yes, I happened to bump into Vi... Senior Celeste in the middle of the road."
What could Han Dong say besides answering 'yes'.
Celeste's palm landed on his shoulder, and as long as Han Dong didn't cooperate with the answer, the shoulder would be crushed instantly in nine out of ten cases, seriously affecting the next [Destiny Space].
"Alright, now that you've met, there's no need for me to continue carrying this rookie, Fia! Buy more energy restoring potions, and always make sure to resupply the [Seed] energy and don't let it fall below 30%."
"Okay, sister."
Vino Celeste didn't stop for a moment, and as soon as she went out, she called for the white horse that belonged to her and left alone.
Just as the female knight's back disappeared from view.
Snap! Cass' sturdy arms immediately wrapped around Han Dong's neck.
"How did you do it, friend Andeva? This is the famous [Knight of Punishment], a genius knight with one of the highest talents among the ordinary knight members of the Sacred Knights."
Cass wasn't stupid.
Even if Celeste said that she had a chance run-in with Han Dong and even if it was a run-in, even if Han Dong had assisted her in an ordinary mission.
It wouldn't have been enough for her as a knight to lead Han Dong, a two-star trainee knight, to tour and introduce the trading center.
Moreover, the two of them were close to each other and even slightly friendly as they walked down from between the stairs.
It was precisely for this reason that Cass initially mistook her for Han Dong's female companion.
"This... the last phantom incident! Didn't you go to the tree cave and destroy the ghost itself?
I was out idly and accidentally found another passage to the underground and thought of something to go deeper on my own.
Who knows, I accidentally helped Vino Knight.
And then, it was probably the human affairs aspect of the world. I won't go into the details of the process! If Vino hears about it, I'm afraid she will kill me."
While Han Dong briefly explained the origin of the 'relationship' between the two, Sophia on the side was still shocked
"Wait! You know your sister's name!?"
Fia knew one thing very well, if her sister took the initiative to tell her full name to Han Dong, saying that the relationship between the two was really not simple.
Han Dong smiled with an awkward smile, "Ha-ha, Sister Vino just told me."
"Brother Andeva! It's really awesome for real!"
Cass was merely holding Han Dong's neck, his other hand outstretched thumb, and his evaluation of Han Dong was already sky high.
What else could Han Dong do; he was desperate as well.
He just wanted to come out early and get acquainted with Center Street, but how could he know that Celeste had reached out to him, offered to hold his hand, and even bought him a pair of boots, no, bought him Destiny shoe gear.
There was something about accidentally hooking up with a rich woman.
Just then, the little man, Coslin, came from the other end of the trading center.
"Captain all the lists of props we need have been submitted to the staff and they'll be shipping out complete soon.
Shall we wait here, or find a quiet place?"
"Let's go somewhere clean, after all, I want to use the 'secret key' for this [Destiny Space]. If the walls have ears, someone might hit on us."
"Good."
On the side, Han Dong and Coslin smiled at each other as they met, having become completely familiar with each other from the last ghost incident.
Only, there was something different about today's Coslin.
He had a set of 'steam-driven full skeletal armor' mounted on the outside of his right arm.
The steel frame, along with nearly a hundred bearings and gear joints, allowed the gauntlet to fit perfectly with the various movements of the right arm.
Flipping and bending the elbow or wrist all seem natural without any sense of metal getting in the way.
The 'miniature steam engine' is fused to the inside of the arm gauntlet and is not even noticeable.
The steam engine could automatically or manually assist when Coslin was performing movements related to his right arm, improving the basic attributes of his right arm in all directions.
Whether it was the speed of punching, carrying power or the precision when controlling a firearm, it would all be improved.
This was what the 'Mechanic' was made of.
Han Dong couldn't help but think of his 'real sister'.
"Nina she should also be thinking of creating this kind of auxiliary equipment before heading to the Destiny Space, right? Indeed, it has a huge increase on ordinary people, and can dramatically increase the probability of survival."
The merchandise order was complete.
There were still more than three hours left before the Destiny Space opened.
Led by Cass and the others arrived at a special bar on Center Street.
The private room was made of soundproof stone and was guarded by a special attendant outside the door, so no information would normally leak out.
As soon as they sat down.
Cass immediately initiated a transfer to Han Dong via the wind-up device.
Deep down, Cass had always felt ashamed of Han Dong.
In the final settlement of the last Ghost Incident, Cass knew very well that killing the ghost guarding the mansion alone wasn't enough to get the highest rating, and that it had something to do with Han Dong's work in the underground.
In the end, it was Cass who got the huge reward of the 'Destiny Item' all to himself.
Just when Cass was a little embarrassed and wanted to say something.
Han Dong opened the topic first.
"Captain Cass, is the fate weapon you chose this shield? It seems to suit your congratulations!"
There was no 'discomfort' in Han Dong's smile, and he was completely happy that Cass had obtained the right fate equipment for himself.
Just from this alone, Cass completely agreed and was willing to become a good friend with Han Dong for the rest of his life, and his favorable impressions increased significantly.
In addition, since he had just come across some of the equipment diagrams at the trading center, part of Han Dong's interest had also shifted to this kind of fate equipment with magical power.
The new shield of Cass was noticed in advance.
An iris-shaped (inverted triangle) shield and a domineering lion's head seal printed on its surface, giving an overall feeling of heaviness and even hinting at a power field.
