Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers

Chapter 101: Mixed-Race Elder

[System Divine Nine: ‘Nothing ventured, nothing gained’? I need to find out what that means.]

Lauren said, “System Divine Nine, you’ve been following me for so long, why are your literary attainments still so low? You should learn more from me!”

[System Divine Nine: Our system was born without borders, and we have no concept of gender and age. If it weren’t for the fact that we’re cooperating with the Hosts to complete the mission, we wouldn’t even have to learn these languages of yours.]

[System Divine Nine: Anyway, what’s your current plan? I understand the phrase ‘nothing ventured, nothing gained’ now, but you don’t even know where their base is. How are you going to catch them?]

“Isn’t that simple? I’ll pretend to be a child and get caught!”

System Divine Nine finally understood.

[System Divine Nine: Are you going to make use of George?]

Lauren nodded. She would just let George treat her as a target and “kidnap” her.

Since Ben knew about Lauren’s plan, he kept persuading Lauren while on the way back to the Torres family.

“Miss Torres, your plan is too dangerous. Master Franklin will definitely not agree to it.”

It wasn’t only Master Franklin. Even Ben himself would not agree to it.

Putting aside the fact that Lauren was still such a young child, they did not even know how complicated these missing cases were. They would be very anxious if they could only watch her helplessly while she solved this matter by herself.

Ben did not realize that in the short span of a month, he had actually grown fond of Lauren.

In this sense, it didn’t seem unreasonable for Lauren to claim that everyone loved her.

When Lauren felt Ben’s concern for her, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

She confidently shook her head and said, “Mr. Carson, you have worked with me for so long. Don’t you know my ability?”

Lauren was not without hesitation and fear. This world was too big and the things she had seen were just a drop in the ocean. However, the history of mankind had always had high praise for courage.

When she accepted the role as a Host back then, she was already mentally prepared.

Ben’s curiosity was piqued when it came to working on missions.

“Miss Torres, how…did you start working on these things?”

He asked carefully, as if he was worried that he would offend the holy gods if he was not careful.

He was a staunch atheist in the past. However, he had learned to remain in awe of things that he did not understand over the past month.

“Is it related to that church?”

Ben recalled the group of people who had sent Lauren off when he went to pick her up.

A couple of them were crying their eyes out, and they all looked like kind people.

Lauren nodded. She had missed that period of time so much, though Ben could not see it in her eyes.

“Yes, I learnt these skills in the church! The people there are great!”

Lauren only briefly mentioned it, as she did not want to reveal too much about the reason to Ben.

These stories were too surreal. Even if she told them, no one would believe her.

It was still quite a while before they reached home. Lauren unknowingly fell into reminiscing when she thought about the church.

This incident happened when Lauren was a little over two years old.

Lauren was naturally intelligent. This was probably due to the powerful genes of the Torres family. In other words, Lauren was the “chosen one”.

The life in the church was no different from that of an ordinary child. Lauren started learning from teachers when she was very young, and her uniqueness could be seen from that moment.

Lauren had high learning capability and a strong memory.

While the other children were still learning to say “mommy”, Lauren had already learned all the basic written characters and could even read by herself. All she had to do was read attentively, and she would be able to memorize every single word of a long article.

This news quickly reached the ears of the elder in the church.

The elder was of mixed race. Apart from being tall and having pronounced facial features, he was also resilient and compassionate.

He had two names. One was David, which was his English name; while Chang Yi was his Chinese name.

Elder David had many secrets. For example, David was already more than 200 years old by this year. According to him, his appearance had not changed since he was 80 years old.

Although it was nothing compared to System Divine Nine, David was a mortal after all. He was still strong and healthy at this age, so he was not understood and accepted by other mortals.

In order to avoid a lot of trouble, David had been living deep in the church and did not have any contact with the outside world.

After Elder David found out about Lauren’s talent, he gathered the people from the church for a meeting.

Lauren clearly remembered that the meeting lasted for three days.
