Overlord of the Phantom of the Elves

After completing the search, everyone in the forest finally said goodbye and returned home.

Along the way, Chen Mu was also silently calculating his gains and losses.

The sudden encounter caught him a little off guard, but for now, his situation seemed safe.

Now You Lan Dai'er still mainly uses inducement and coercion to him, which is a good thing.

He needs to maintain this relationship as much as possible to maximize his own profits while avoiding being controlled by others.

Of course, there will definitely be risks involved, and we can only take one step at a time.

"In the worst case, I will run away after I have trained Zoroa. The captain is at sea and Menas is in the capital. If something happens, I will find a way to defect to other people on the gray mist."

Chen Mu whispered in his heart.

Finding a way out for yourself is also an important measure to avoid risks.

At this time, he was already thinking about how to connect with several other members during the Gray Mist Conference in the next few weeks, so as to leave more escape routes for himself.

In the past, he followed the rules step by step and went with the flow. In the past three years, he has not been able to make Zoroa learn a single move. In this case, it is better to take a risk and seize the opportunity!

Beat a fight, bike change bike!

Just when he was thinking about a lot of things, there was a sudden cry from around him, which almost startled him.

"Consultant Kudo? Mr. Kudo?"

"Uh, what's wrong?"

"Are you distracted? Are you okay? Are your things still there?"

"Oh, it's okay, those crystals are all there."

"That's good. This area will probably be blocked by the gym next time, and it will be difficult for us to come in next time, so this harvest is very important."

At this time, Chen Mu couldn't help but become a little curious, "Why are the gym and us so wary of each other over this matter? Are they related to the Deathwing Sect?"

This is something that Chen Mu doesn't understand very much: Edwin has clearly said before that many of the things they do are actually helping the gym wipe the butt and stabilizing the order in the area. Why is the gym so wary, or even disgusted with MI[-]?

Until Walson said frankly: "There is no evidence to prove that they have anything to do with the Deathwing Sect, but it is not certain if we continue to investigate. They are afraid that we will use this to criticize them and reduce their jurisdiction."

After Watson said this, he was immediately glared at by Edwin.

This allowed Chen Mu to quickly taste some extra flavor.

"In order to achieve the purpose of reducing the area under the jurisdiction of the gym, will you eventually find ways to involve the gym and the Deathwing Sect?"

Edwin did not answer directly, but corrected, "It's too early to say this now. Besides, you should say 'we'."

"..."

Chen Mu was silent.

Now he finally understood why the group of people in the gym were so anxious and nervous.

To use an analogy from the story line that I am familiar with in my previous life: this is a "fight" between the royal guards and the minister of the border!

On the surface, it looks like they are tracking down the "Devil Cult", but in fact, Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is aimed at Pei Gong. What MI[-] really wants to punish is the Ba Dao Pavilion, which is growing in power!

"Then should we first find out the purpose and movements of the Deathwing sect?"

"of course."

This time Edwin answered simply.

But for some reason Chen Mu no longer believed this answer so seriously.

The nascent sense of belonging to MI[-] was quickly fading.

No matter what happened, shouldn't solving the cult, stopping the riots, and maintaining the security and stability of the place come first?

But it was not convenient for him to ask these questions. After all, he was just a new special adviser.

……

There was silence all the way, and it was already afternoon by the time everyone returned to Bobinhan City.

After a busy day, they didn't even have time to have lunch. After returning to the MI[-] office, Chen Mu had a customary meal in the staff canteen here.

He was sad to learn that the stock of Moo Milk was gone, but he didn't notice that Mathias's Lucario looked at him with eyes as sharp as a sharp knife.

Thinking of a knife alone can't be hidden.

After it was over, Edwin happily paid Chen Mu the remaining remuneration on the same day.

This made Chen Mu's favorable opinion of MI[-] rise again, which had just dropped.

Maybe their motives are not pure, but they feel comfortable giving money!

Before leaving, Edwin took the initiative and said: "If you have nothing else to do recently, you can come here to help. We are a little short of manpower. We will calculate the settlement reward for you in a week."

"it is good."

Chen Mu naturally couldn't ask for it.

Firstly, it solves the financial problem, and secondly, it makes it easier to gather information and complete Youlandai'er's commission.

After a brief exchange on the way back, he was no longer so repelled by the deal with Youlandel.

At least personally, he hopes to first find out the Deathwing sect that caused forest riots, destroyed roads, harmed villages, and killed countless wild elves. As for whether the people who raised the grievances were gymnasiums or agents, Chen Mu didn't care.

After getting the money and leaving the MI[-] office building, Chen Mu first planned to move and change the house.

Both for comfort and safety.

After returning home, he first went to his room and simply put some makeup on his face to be prepared. Then he found a black bowler hat and put it on his head. Matching it with a dark windbreaker, his whole temperament suddenly became sinister. stand up.

Then he went over and knocked on the landlady's door.

Opening the door, the landlord Mrs. Sabori saw Chen Mu, her eyes were not very friendly.

"Are you here to pay back the money you owe for the damage to your furniture?"

Last week, when Zoroa first learned the Shadow Claw, he destroyed a cabinet and an entire wall in the house. At that time, Mrs. Sabori asked Chen Mu to compensate for the damage to the furniture. However, there were so many things going wrong this week that Chen Mu still hasn't done anything. I thought of paying for the money.

"Yes, Mrs. Saboli, but I'm here for another thing besides that. I want to give up the lease."

"Refund the lease? No! This is impossible! We signed the contract, and you still have half a year!"

"But life is full of changes, isn't it, ma'am?"

"Then don't ask for your deposit! In addition, you must compensate me——"

However, Chen Mu took the initiative to interrupt the landlady's chatter.

"The deposit can be used to offset the cost of furniture damage. Unless I'm madam, I don't plan to pay any other expenses."

"What did you say?!!"

Although Mrs. Saboli was angry, one of her hot cats couldn't help but arch its body, raise its tail, and let out an aggressive cry.

However, the next moment, Zoroa took a step forward and raised his tail as well. The aura that erupted all over his body completely overwhelmed the hot cat, making him freeze up in fear and all the fur on his body exploded in an instant.

Compared with the elves from MI[-] and the gym trainers, Zoroa's aura is still slightly lacking, but against a folk elf who was raised as a pet, Zoroa's aura is enough to easily achieve this. Completely crushed!

At this time, Chen Mu took off his hat, and a ferocious "scratch" on his face from his forehead to the corner of his mouth made his temperament even more fierce, like a grinning evil ghost.

He had a premonition that the negotiation might not go smoothly, so he put on makeup in advance, and the effect was truly outstanding!

"Mrs. Sabory, haven't you ever thought about it? I can cause such havoc in the room, and I can do it here too.

In addition, it is actually a good thing for you that I will cancel the lease. Unfortunately, I have been involved in many extremely dangerous incidents recently. If you must force me to stay, then I cannot guarantee that this place will remain as it used to be in the future. Safety, I will not be responsible for any accidents. "

Chen Mu's tone was very gentle, neither roaring nor angry, but just such slow thoughts with a slight smile, combined with Soraya's terrifying aura and the hideous scar on his face, brought more fear to people than speaking loudly. The threat is even more terrifying.

Mrs. Saboli's legs were shaking for a moment.

"You...you have become...that kind of person?!"
