Chapter 240

Andrew thought about it with horror.

But the more he thought about it, the more he felt it made sense, because even for the god-level bell worms, they were also rare-level extraordinary items.

As a gift, it is definitely valuable enough, at least it is at the same level as the magic sword, and it will definitely not cause Lin Jie's resistance because the weight is not enough.

This is the real power of law!

Although the power that this bell rotworm can exert depends entirely on the amount of ether of the caster, and because there are many restrictions, even if the destruction level uses all its strength, it can only be used once in a small area.

Basically, it can only be used to save lives at critical times. If the opponent can kill you before you turn the clock, this thing will naturally be useless.

Very limited.

But this is still an artifact that can change fate.

Otherwise, Andrew's family would not spend a lot of manpower and material resources to build this device, and then use this supernatural item as a family heirloom for successive generations of family owners to keep secretly.

But... Andrew felt that he had overlooked one point.

That is the owner of the bookstore in front of him, what kind of power has he mastered, and what level has he reached?

Because of the blockade of news and intelligence by the Secret Ritual Tower, what the Truth Society has been able to detect so far are all leftovers.

One can only know that Lin Jie's own strength is definitely above the god level, but he doesn't know the specific situation at all, only a general "omniscient and omnipotent".

But may I ask which religion does not make its god omniscient and omnipotent?

Starting from rationality, Andrew didn't think that the power of the bookstore owner would reach this level. The possibility of exaggeration by other customers and the secret ritual tower's desire to please accounted for most of it.

But now he suddenly realized that although it was not to that extent, judging from the attitude of the Secret Ritual Tower, the owner of the bookstore must be in control of a high-ranking domain.

And maybe he, by mistake, happened to be in the wrong...

Andrew carefully observed the expression of the young man opposite him, but he didn't see any clues.

Lin Jie looked at the increasingly weird vice president of the Truth Society with some doubts, knocked on the table, and said, "Aside from making an apology, do you have anything else to do? Did you forget something?"

He wondered if there was something wrong with the vice president, and now the other party was behaving like an Alzheimer's patient he had seen before.

I always look at other people's faces, and from time to time I have to judge whether there is a problem with my memory, and try to remember the other person's appearance and what they are doing now.

Andrew was shocked all over, and his mood, which had finally been relaxed, became tense again.

This is, this is a warning!

Since the owner of the bookstore is dissatisfied with the gift just now, he naturally needs to increase his chips!

This is a hint to remind him that he should hurry up and show the greatest sincerity!

"Buy books! I want to buy books!"

Andrew quickly said: "I have heard about you and your bookstore name for a long time. As a member of the Truth Society and a scholar who has dedicated his life to learning, I am full of awe and thirst for knowledge, so I really want to get your books. Therefore, I can pay all the price!"

Now he is full of sincerity in his heart, and he doesn't say anything, trying to say good things, hoping that he can become a customer of the bookstore.

The owner of the bookstore will not reject people who come to ask for help, but only if you buy his books.

At the same time, only by obtaining the book can one obtain the desired power from it.

Lin Jie was taken aback for a moment, and then instantly showed a business smile. The original resistance and unhappiness disappeared, which changed faster than Sichuan opera.

His smile is like a spring breeze: "Oh... so I want to buy books, so you should have said it earlier, come to buy books when you come to buy books, and bring any gifts, it's too polite."

"Sit, sit down."

Lin Jie smiled and stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation, pointing to the high stool in front of the counter.

"Oh." Andrew was stunned for a moment, then sat down in front of the counter, and finally ecstasy welled up in his heart.

After this ups and downs like a roller coaster of great sorrow and joy, he finally got the approval of the bookstore owner and was qualified to buy books.

Whether he can eliminate the mistakes he made before depends on his performance this time.

Lin Jie put the bell rotworm box aside, beckoned Prima over, and said, "Go get a cup of tea."

In fact, Prima's injury has almost healed, and there is still no problem in moving freely.

Hearing Boss Lin's order, he naturally ran over to help.

Andrew noticed the existence of this girl from the very beginning, but although he knew Margaret's sister, he didn't know much about her...

No, wait, why is Margaret's sister here? !

He relaxed his tense mind just now, and finally had time to think about this question.

Margaret was attacked and her whereabouts are still unknown, but her sister appeared in the bookstore strangely...

At this time, Lin Jie took the teacup from Prima, pushed it in front of Andrew, and suddenly said, "Do you know who Prima's uncle is?"

He suddenly realized that the top executives of the Truth Society were already in front of him, so it would be better if he just asked for news.

Andrew was shocked: "Jerome!"

It turned out that he understood what the owner of the bookstore asked knowingly, looked at Prima, saw her pale face, and must have been injured.

In other words, Jerome is indeed the ghost, and it is the group of people who attacked Margaret.

Jerome not only shot at Margaret, but also tried to kill Prima.

But Prima just happened to come to the bookstore for help.

In other words, their enemy is the same person!

Lin Jie said: "It seems that you know..."

Andrew smiled bitterly: "You needn't say it, I haven't noticed that he is the ghost. This is my stupidity and dereliction of duty. In the past, I was influenced by him and made many mistakes, but now I have changed my past. No, I want to take credit for my crime."

It seems that he doesn't need to say anything, the vice president in front of him already knows about Jerome's crimes.

And this Jerome did more than one bad thing.

Lin Jie nodded: "Very good, I also have something to talk to him about, can you call him over?"

Andrew was taken aback for a moment: "What do you want to do with him?"

Lin Jie smiled very calmly and raised his chin, motioning him to look at the door. Andrew turned his head and saw a hole that had obviously been filled in the door.

"I want to talk to him about the compensation for my door."

"no problem!"

Andrew naturally nodded immediately, ecstatic in his heart.

It's better to come early than coincidentally. I'm afraid that Jerome hit the gun and gave him the opportunity to be removed from the bookstore's blacklist.

Lin Jie said with satisfaction: "Then I will wait for your good news...By the way, what kind of books do you want to buy? I can recommend a few for you. For example, I personally like "The Alchemist" very much... "
