"Teacher, are you awake? I'll go and let the kitchen serve the food, please wait a moment."

Seeing Vigo coming, Miss McDonald immediately expressed, and then walked quickly towards the kitchen. Vigo inexplicably had a strange feeling that she had just interrupted the two, but her attention was soon attracted by Little Mia standing on the round table.

"Ah! Who is this cute little cat?"

She seemed to have bright eyes, and immediately walked close to Little Mia, but did not reach out to touch it.

Xia De then introduced:

"This is my... cat I raised, called Little Mia. It rarely wants to go out, but since it was rare not to reject going out with me today, I brought it out."

"What does it usually eat? Has the kitchen prepared it?"

Vigo asked with a smile, obviously also quite liking such a beautiful and cute cat.

Xia De nodded:

"Miss Rollin has already arranged it. In fact, Little Mia's taste is very similar to mine. Basically, whatever I can eat, it will eat."

He originally wanted to ask if Vigo had any pets like cats, but immediately thought that because of Vigo's constitution, she couldn't even touch normal people directly, let alone pets.

And Vigo herself did not avoid this topic:

"I had a pet cat at home when I was very young, but I found that they didn't like being touched by me, and even bristled as soon as I touched them. At that time, my soul was not as powerful as it is now, and the impact on the body was not as strong as it is today, so the animals just subconsciously felt that I was very dangerous."

"Later, when I grew up, I had to wear special gloves when contacting people, and animals with sensitive senses would even run away when they saw me from afar. Even after I had a 'limiter' later, very few animals were willing to get within two meters of me. Your cat is already considered very close to me. As for being touched by me... I don't want to harm them either."

After she finished speaking, she coughed softly again, and Xia De walked towards her wanting to comfort her.

Unexpectedly, seeing Xia De approaching, Little Mia stood up from the round table. It jumped towards Vigo with a charge, first landed on the arm Vigo raised, then borrowed strength to jump onto Xia De's shoulder, and finally meowed before lying down again.

Vigo did not praise Little Mia's agility, but looked at the place where the cat had just touched her. After a long while, she moved her gaze to Xia De's shoulder, and then reached out directly to try to touch Little Mia.

Then, like most people's treatment, the cat raised its little paw and pushed Vigo's hand away, obviously not liking her very much either.

But this not only didn't make Vigo unhappy, but made her laugh:

"Did you see that? It just touched my hand with its paw! And it was an active touch!"

Xia De's blood only made her recover her health and could not suppress the particularity of her constitution. The contact just now was obviously because of Little Mia's extraordinary nature. But considering that it had been to many extremely dangerous places with Xia De, relatively speaking, Vigo's hand was not so dangerous:

"This cat has the thin bloodline of the 'Son of the Sun,' and it can even spray small flames."

Xia De explained, but Vigo didn't care where Little Mia's particularity came from. She just thought in her heart that after she married Xia De in the future, the two families would become one, and Little Mia would also become her pet cat. By then, she would probably be able to hold this cat in her arms.

"The cat is as beautiful as the owner... I am so lucky."

A morning of rest made Vigo's complexion look much better, but she had better continue to rest in the house in the afternoon and consider going out tomorrow.

At lunch, Xia De told Vigo and Miss McDonald about the "sewer hunting" in the morning. Vigo didn't know much about the outer city, and Miss McDonald had only heard of "refugee disappearance" before. Therefore, hearing that the truth was like this, they were all a bit surprised.

"Although the three of you can easily deal with this kind of monster, ordinary people, even with a full set of armor and thermal weapons, probably have no possibility of survival when encountering them."

"If it weren't for your vampire friends taking the initiative to clear them, I would even want to inform the church and let the church send people deep into the sewer."

Vigo said, but Xia De thought that this matter should not be involved with the church, especially the 【Creation Sect】. He talked about what might happen to the Holy See of the 【Creation Sect】 today:

"This matter cannot be solved in one day. No matter what the outcome is, the Arcadia diocese will be busy for a while."

"If the local black market is rectified because of this, that would be really unlucky. The church does bad things itself, and in the end, it always implicates unrelated people."

Vigo said, and then asked Xia De expectantly:

"Are you going to drill into the sewer in the outer city in the afternoon?"

Xia De shook his head:

"Mr. Bernhardt said they would handle this matter, and I'll just wait for the news now."

"Then stay and accompany me in the afternoon... I mean, just stay and tell me about recent things. Today is Tuesday, and we met last Wednesday noon. Although it has only been a short week, I feel that a lot of things have really happened."

Since Vigo gave a legitimate reason, Xia De did not refuse.

After lunch, Vigo only drank a cup of tea and returned to the bedroom to rest. Xia De also entered Vigo's bedroom again.

And on this Tuesday afternoon, Vigo also showed Xia De that she was not very free every day. Starting at 1:30 in the afternoon, because Miss McDonald went to the laboratory again, Miss Rollin knocked on the door again and again to ask Vigo for instructions on many things—

The spices from the New Continent that should have arrived today did not appear at the train station on time, the City Hall asked for Vigo's opinion on a bill to be announced next week, the color of the precious potion being refined in the magic potion laboratory in the underground palace was wrong, and the 【Emerald Alchemy Association】 sent news.

The last thing was the most important. The two people released by Vigo on Monday also took away her threats and her questions. And after a day, the alchemists sent the reply through the channel reserved by Vigo.

Before the letter was sent, it had already been checked. Vigo, leaning against the pillow, read it herself first, and then handed the letter paper to Xia De:

"Take a look, the situation is about the same as I expected."

The matter Vigo asked the alchemists was what the 【Son Alliance】 came to do locally. At the beginning of the letter, the writer greeted "Red Stone"—the code name of her mother inherited by Vigo—in a quite formulaic way, and then denied that the 【Emerald Alchemy Association】 had cooperated with an illegal organization named 【Son Alliance】.

However, at the end of the letter, the writer admitted that more than one foreign Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi organization had contacted the Alchemy Association some time ago, and these organizations had conducted certain academic exchanges and technical exchanges with the association's alchemists.

At the same time, he claimed that the outsiders not only contacted the Alchemy Association, but also contacted other local organizations such as the 【Magic Eye Club】 to varying degrees.

"The Alchemy Association doesn't admit that they have contacted that group of madmen, and I don't know if it's because they are stubborn or if they really couldn't identify the other party's identity."

Vigo said while Xia De was reading the letter, her tone was very calm:

"But at least I know that those alchemists haven't continued to cooperate deeply with outsiders, which is enough."

"But according to the letter, there is more than one group of outsiders who came to the local area before the Year-End Festival. I suspect whether the 【Blood Spirit School】 has also contacted the alchemists."

Xia De asked, and Vigo hummed, then coughed again:

"They must have contacted them. Alchemists believe in equivalent exchange. As long as the other party can come up with enough attractive things, they are definitely willing to trade. In order to protect themselves and prevent being beaten into the camp of 'illegal organizations,' deep cooperation with illegal Ring Mages is highly likely not to exist, but taking advantage of them is definitely something they would do. I know them too well."

Xia De did not comment on this. He was still reading the long letter. In addition to defending that the Alchemy Association absolutely did not cooperate with the crazy evil organization, the letter informed Vigo of the situation of the group of people suspected to be the 【Son Alliance】 contacting them.

According to the letter, the group of strangers arrived locally in the middle of last month, and then contacted the 【Emerald Alchemy Association】 through channels in the "Candlekeep Society," and after some knowledge exchange, they made formal contact.

"The letter says that those mysterious people have quite advanced blood purification technology, and master the ability to activate alchemy items with strange golden power, and they can also provide a red enhancer that can enhance the efficacy of magic potions."

Xia De looked up at Vigo:

"Finally, the two sides had direct contact for half a month. During this period, the Alchemy Association obtained strange materials provided by the other party, and those mysterious people contacted more local Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi organizations through the Alchemy Association, thus standing firm locally, and they obtained the technology of 'Mental Resonance Controller' from the alchemists."

"That last sentence must be fake. The technology shared by the alchemists with the 【Son Alliance】 is definitely not such backward stuff. I can see that they are afraid, so they didn't tell the truth."

Vigo said again:

"However, they were able to track me without me unlocking the limiter some time ago. Now it seems that they probably used the ability of the 【Son Alliance】 to activate alchemy items. That kind of strange golden light looks really omnipotent."

"The letter didn't write clearly what the 【Son Alliance】 came to do locally. Judging from their actions, they are more like wanting to take root locally, so they first contacted the local snakes."

"But even if they are madmen, they can't settle down next to the Holy See of the Orthodox Church, right? Although this organization is very mysterious, it's not that no one can identify them. Didn't my friend identify the origin of those people at a glance?"
