Bridge Effect...

Thinking of these, William said to Halsey, "Catherine.

Did that Henry Frederick say that a witch must remain chaste until she is eighteen years old before she can allow that god to come to the world?"

"Yeah." Halsey nodded slightly and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"That's easy to handle."

William raised his left eyebrow slightly and said, "That girl is obviously interested in our son. If, I mean, if they are before the age of eighteen...

Hiss...! Ah... it hurts... it hurts!"

Before William could finish speaking, Halsey put his hands together and pinched his waist hard with his nails.

It lasted for several seconds before Halsey let go of her hand and glared at William fiercely.

Then he crossed his arms and said, "You are almost thirty, why do you always have such wild thoughts?"

William frowned, kneaded the pinched area with both hands, and said with a wry smile, "Just keep your childish innocence..."

Slowly.

He no longer looked joking, but said seriously, "We can't take this child in hastily, and we can't execute her directly...

How about finding someone to adopt her and make her the company's Outsiders when she turns eighteen, what do you think?"

"Hum..."

Halsey held his chin with his left hand, thought for a few seconds and nodded, "It is indeed a plan.

After all, the only people who know her true characteristics now are you and me, and Andre floating in the sky.

Andre..."

Having said this, Halsey's eyes lit up, he raised his head and looked at William and said, "Eh? William, do you think Andre will agree to adopt her?"

Hearing this, William just thought for a moment and replied, "I think it will.

Andre is almost sixty, and he didn't marry and have children because he took care of me. He doesn't mind, but he will feel a little regretful."

"Yes." Halsey nodded in agreement. "Then let Andre adopt Xia.

And the veteran also dotes on his children, it's time for this poor child to have a decent father."

"Wait."

After hearing the word father, William quickly corrected him as fast as he could. "It's not her father, it's her grandfather.

If Andre becomes Shia's father, then doesn't she have to call me brother?

What if, I mean what if, Sia gets married to that kid from our family, how will this seniority be calculated?"

Listening to William's lecture, Halsey could only shake his head and smile, "Okay, that's grandpa.

As for Ivan and Xia, let's talk about it later. The changes for children are too big."

"That's why I said what if." William also shook his head.

Then he took Halsey's left hand and walked towards the meeting room.

And said, "Okay, it's time to take Ivan and Shia out of the Athens base and go to low-Earth orbit to meet Andre."

"Hmm."

Soon after, William arranged for Guardians Company, led by Hicks and Hudson, to be responsible for the task of transporting Golden Altar together with Omega.

Although Golden Altar, which was originally stored in St. Mark's Church, can be viewed and photographed by passengers in normal times, it is still a safety-level anomaly.

Especially when Shia turns eighteen, Golden Altar may cause the god-level God of Light to appear.

Therefore, Golden Altar can no longer be viewed by people and needs to be sent to Containment Center immediately. It will be destroyed if necessary.

After arranging the transportation of Golden Altar, William told the person in charge of the Athens base to direct European agents to remain vigilant at all times and continue to capture the remnants of Star of Light Church.

Then, he led Halsey and Ivan, as well as Shia, who didn't know her true ability, to board the Phantom hovering over the Athens base.

Returned to space.

Containment Fleet's flagship.

Inside the personal office cabin of the Tsar aircraft carrier, Andre.

At this time, the veteran was standing behind the virtual landscape window with his hands behind his back, looking out the window with a frown.

No matter how sunny and sunny it was outside the window, the word "Sichuan" between the veteran's eyebrows could not relax.

Because he is about to usher in his own...

Adopted daughter.

As a member of Olympus Board of Directors, Andre also learned all the information about Shia, but he never thought that William wanted to adopt this little miko.

"Forget it..."

After thinking for a long time, Andre just shook his head and said to himself, "I have already raised a son, so raising another daughter is not a problem."

"General." At this time, Artificial Intelligence and Tina, who were in charge of the Tsar and Containment Operation, used the built-in broadcast in the office cabin to remind:

"The Pelican that the boss is riding on has arrived at the hangar of the Tsar."

Hearing this, Andre put away his worried face, turned around and walked outside the cabin and replied, "Okay, I understand.

Inform my guards to greet them earlier and take the boss and others to the conference room next to the hangar, and I will arrive shortly."

"Yes, General."

After Andre ended his conversation with Shia, he left his office cabin and used the Orbit Train built into the aircraft carrier to head towards the hangar.

More than ten minutes passed.

"Whoa!" As the automatic door opened, the veteran walked into the conference room.

I saw William in the conference room smiling, comforting the uneasy Shia.

Although Shia is no longer so afraid of strangers, she will inevitably feel nervous without the company of Ivan and having to be adopted by someone she has never met.

After William saw Andre walking into the office, he raised his hand and patted Shia's head lightly, then looked at the veteran and said:

"Andre, this child is Shia. I hope you can take good care of her."

Andre remained silent, walked slowly to William, and looked at Xiya who was next to William.

Seeing Andre, who was nearly two meters tall and was calm and intimidating, Shia couldn't help but hide behind William.

She didn't dare to meet Andre's eyes, but she would still glance at Andre, as if she was very curious about the veteran who was about to adopt her.

Seeing this, Andre also found that his face had a strong deterrent effect on outsiders.

Then he immediately made a kind face, first smiled at Shia who peeked at him, then looked at William and said with a bitter smile:

"It seems like she is a little afraid of me."

"Haha." William also smiled slightly, staggered his body, gently caressed Siya and came forward.

He also explained, "This child has had no parents since he was a child, and lost his mentor a few days ago, so he lacks a sense of security."

With that said, William lowered his head and looked at Xia and said softly, "Xia, don't worry, don't think Andre looks bluffing, in fact he is a very careful person."

At this time, after seeing Andre's kind face, Shia really took off a lot of guard and even felt that this veteran was very...

Kind.

Then she murmured softly, "Well..."
