The immortal body is called Teevat
Chapter 102 Little Navia
While talking to Wu Cheng, Carres also looked at Wu Cheng's appearance and formed a preliminary impression of Wu Cheng in his mind based on Wu Cheng's appearance.
Although the young man in front of him looked very sunny and harmless, Cares had seen many different kinds of people, and he could feel that the young man in front of him would occasionally exude a hint of imperceptible murderous intent and the smell of blood.
If Wu Cheng had not killed so many people, then Carres would not have had this special feeling towards him. He had seen too many desperate criminals and knew a lot about their auras. He would not be wrong this time.
This must be the first time this young man has killed someone. The murderous aura and the smell of blood on him definitely don't lie. And the number of people who died at his hands is definitely more than 20 people from the Nalez trafficking organization.
According to Miles' description, Wu Cheng is a foreigner who has just come to Fontaine for tourism, but from Cares' current perspective, the truth may be more than that.
The young man in front of him must have his hidden identity, but it was not important to Carres. Everyone has their own secrets, and asking too many questions about others would not win their favor.
When he thought of this, Carres became even more curious and incredulous. After all, a 14 or 15-year-old boy would be in school in other families. No matter what, he should thrive in a comfortable and stable environment.
The young man in front of him might have learned how to kill people long ago. And he was indifferent to the idea of killing people. He even laughed and chatted with Carres when he talked about it just now.
After killing someone, he remained calm, as if the lives of the people he killed were nothing more than a bunch of ants that had nothing to do with him.
After Cares finished describing his views on Hogman, Wu Cheng said to Cares in a calm tone, "Mr. Cares, there is no need to go to such trouble. Although I am new to Fontaine, I don't know much about Hogman and the forces behind him."
Wu Cheng paused for a moment and continued to say to Carres: "But I am confident that I can protect myself, so I won't bother you from the Thorn Rose Society to solve this matter for me. After all, I don't like to cause trouble to others because of my own problems."
Seeing that Wu Cheng had said this, Carres knew that Wu Cheng must have his own reasons for being confident, which was the so-called trump card. He was not too persistent in joining Wu Cheng's plan to stay in the Thorn Rose Club for many days.
After all, the other person's mind is already somewhat firm, and trying to persuade him to stay again will not increase his favorability. To a certain extent, continuing to repeat the topic will become counterproductive. There is no need to waste the good impression that has just been established.
So Carres replied to Wu Cheng with a slight smile: "In that case, I won't keep you in the Cimei Conference for many days. But it's getting late today, why don't you rest for a night at the Cimei Conference's headquarters? How about leaving tomorrow?"
Wu Cheng had no objection to this. First, it was really late, and he was not used to walking at night. And now all he had to do was wait.
The second reason is that he didn't know the road from the Grey River to the main street of Fontaine, so it would be better not to run around. After all, the terrain of the Fontaine Grey River is more complicated because most of it is sewer pipes.
And it is full of unknown dangers for ordinary people, such as road robbery or being killed when encountering some secret transactions. Of course, Wu Cheng is not an exception, he is only in danger of getting lost.
Otherwise, what would happen today would be that Peter dragged him into the Fontaine Alley and he got lost like a headless fly and ran into the Les trafficking organization. However, the final outcome was that the Les trafficking organization was robbed by Wu Cheng.
Since Cares had already gotten the answer he wanted, he naturally did not continue to discuss the topic in depth. Cares then chatted with Wu Cheng about some other unimportant topics.
Wu Cheng patiently answered all of Mr. Carres' questions. The two sides had a very harmonious discussion.
It was not until a long time later that Carres subconsciously looked at the clock and found that it was almost time for dinner. To be honest, he was a little hungry after chatting for so long.
He said to Wu Cheng: "It is indeed getting late now. Today's conversation has really benefited me a lot. So, may I have the honor to invite you to enjoy the Rose Thorn Club dinner with us?"
Wu Cheng did not raise any objection to Cares' suggestion. He nodded to indicate his agreement with Cares' request and said that it was his honor to have dinner at the Thorn Rose Club.
After all, one should not hit a smiling person. There is no deep hatred between him and Cares. Since Cares is willing to treat him to a meal, why not do it?
Then Carres stood up and said to Wu Cheng, "Well, young sir, let me lead the way for you. If you haven't talked enough, we can continue the conversation at the dinner table later."
Wu Cheng and Carres walked out of the lounge they had not returned to for the last time, and under the guidance of Carres, they soon arrived at the cafeteria of the Thorn Rose Society's base.
The place was already full of people, but no one seemed to be eating first. Maybe they were waiting for President Carres.
Then Cares took Wu Cheng and arranged a seat next to him. After that, Cares began to introduce to everyone in the Thorn Rose Society what Wu Cheng had done today.
In this righteous Thorn Rose Society, Wu Cheng's behavior of running a percussion music trafficking organization naturally attracted everyone's praise. However, facing the overwhelming praise, Wu Cheng was as at a loss as a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child, and he began to stammer when speaking.
But Cares also saw Wu Cheng's embarrassment, so he subconsciously gestured for everyone to stop and start enjoying today's dinner, and asked everyone to talk about anything after dinner.
Today's menu for the Rose Thorn Club is also Baisong Town's specialty seafood soup, not only because this dish is very common and homely in the Fontaine family.
Moreover, most of the residents of Baisong Town make a living by fishing, and the seafood and other aquatic products they catch are sold to the outside.
However, those foreign merchants will try their best to lower the prices of these aquatic products, making it impossible for these hard-working residents to earn enough to support their families.
Therefore, Cimei will make a move once again at this moment. They purchase the aquatic products of Baisong Town at normal market prices, which makes those foreign merchants dare not push the prices down too much, and indirectly allows the residents of Baisong Town to get good wages to support their families.
Of course, Wu Cheng didn't know all this at first, but it was Cares who told him about it during the banquet.
At this time, Wu Cheng understood why Cimei was ostracized because of the incident of Cares, but still had a lot of say in Baisong Town.
Then, following the topic, Carres also introduced his daughter Navia, who was sitting opposite Wu Cheng, and told Wu Cheng that his daughter also had a strong sense of justice.
At such a young age, she was able to handle many simple disputes in the lower district of Huihe. Although she did not do something as earth-shattering as Wu Cheng, she was five or six years younger than Wu Cheng, and was considered a maverick among her peers.
As Cares introduced, Wu Cheng also turned his gaze to Navia who was sitting opposite him.
Wu Cheng only saw a little girl with wavy golden hair and blue eyes sitting opposite him. She was wearing a very gorgeous dress and looked as lively as a real doll.
And her expression was lively and confident. Wu Cheng thought that Navia was quite cute when she was a child. With such a confident and optimistic child, things will surely go smoothly in the future.
But did Navia know the unfair mockery of fate on her? First she lost her father whom she depended on, and then she lost two followers, Myles and Silver, who were her master and servant in name but relatives in reality.
Every time Wu Cheng thought of Navia's plot, he felt a little unfair. Why did all the suffering have to be concentrated on one person? And it seemed that fate never intended to let a suffering person go? Is this also the unique way the world of Teyvat works? That's really sad.
Navia noticed that Wu Cheng was looking at her, so she confidently introduced herself to Wu Cheng: "Hello, my name is Navia, and I am the daughter of Mr. Carres, the president of the Thorn Rose Society. Can you tell me your name?"
Wu Cheng also smiled at Navia and responded: "My name is Wu Cheng, and I am a traveler from Liyue. Please take care of me in the future. It is my honor to meet Miss Navia today."
Navia was also a little surprised when she heard Wu Cheng's expression. After a pause, she continued to talk to Wu Cheng: "Hello, Wu Cheng, there is actually no need to call me Miss Navia, just call me Navia."
"I have a feeling that we will become very good friends. There is no need for us to have such distant words with each other."
After Wu Cheng finished the last mouthful of seafood soup in his bowl, he said to Navia: "Oh? Then I'd better obey your command."
Then Navia continued: "Wu Cheng, I have heard about your deeds from Uncle Miles. You dared to fight more than ten members of the Les trafficking organization alone, but I believe that one day I will do better than you, and even surpass you."
Wu Cheng nodded in agreement with Navia's idea, and then made a promise to her: "Then I will wait for that day, but don't let me wait too long."
Wu Cheng also knew that his strength was overwhelming that of Navia. Wu Cheng could confidently say that no matter how many years passed, his martial arts value would always be higher than Navia's.
But in terms of suffering, Navia has indeed defeated him, and won completely.
Navia will lose her father in a few years, and her uncle Marcelle is the real murderer of Carres, and she will lose her only two remaining relatives in the catastrophe predicted by Fontaine.
Then Navia seemed to be amused by Wu Cheng's words. Her two aqua blue eyes turned into crescents, and she smiled happily, and promised Wu Cheng: "When I take over my father's job, I will be the new president of the Thorn Rose Club and will carry forward the Thorn Rose Club. I will definitely surpass you."
“Let the Thorn Rose Society help the poor people in Fontaineland pursue fairness and justice, and let them truly enjoy the benefits of the law.”
Wu Cheng was full of admiration for Navia, who was so young and had such great ambitions. After all, when he was at that age, he should have been thinking about how to buy spicy snacks and toys after class. How could she be so ambitious?
Navia knew that Wu Cheng was from Liyue, so she talked to Wu Cheng about some issues related to Liyue. Although Wu Cheng's knowledge of Liyue was not as good as that of the locals of Liyue, it was enough for him to talk with Navia, who was from Fontaine.
The two of them got along very well while chatting, and because Wu Cheng often told various stories to Weili and the children, his storytelling skills had become very proficient.
When he was telling Navia about the customs and culture of Liyue, he would always use stories as a starting point to tell Navia.
As a child, Navia naturally liked the fables told by Wu Cheng. Time passed quickly and Navia felt sleepy. She said goodbye to Wu Cheng and said that if he was free, she hoped Wu Cheng would tell her more fables about Liyue.
Wu Cheng naturally would not take the initiative to ask Navia to tell fairy tales all night, so he naturally said goodbye to her as Navia said.
Afterwards, he was assigned a guest room of the Ci Mei Club under the arrangement of the Ci Mei staff. Although it was not as luxurious as the Fontainebleau Hotel, the room was very simple and clean overall, which was a good place for Wu Cheng to live.
Afterwards, Wu Cheng also planned to practice his one-handed sword skills. After all, in an open scene, the sickle is definitely the weapon with the strongest deterrent power and range.
However, fighting in an extremely small space would make it cumbersome and at a disadvantage, and it would be easy for it to fail to maneuver and cause the enemy to escape.
Although the one-handed sword has a much smaller attack range than the sickle, it has more room for operation. In a small space, the benefit of using a one-handed sword is obviously greater than that of a sickle.
Besides, when she was experimenting with weapons with Willy, Willy also said that she had some talent in using a one-handed sword, although not much.
But Wu Cheng believed that hard work could make up for lack of talent. If he could keep practicing, he would not need to reach the level of a one-handed sword master. He only needed to master some simple killing moves.
After all, his immortality and the high-efficiency dynamics of the Sharingan make up for the deficiencies of his acquired abilities. That is, he can make countless mistakes, but his opponent only has one chance to make a mistake.
Finally, under Weili's guidance, Wu Cheng slowly learned basic moves such as one-handed sword attack and blocking defense. Of course, he didn't have the talent to be able to use the sickle with just one hand.
Wu Cheng was a slow learner, and Wei Li even advised him to give up. But when Wu Cheng insisted on learning, Wei Li took a few deep breaths and continued to patiently teach Wu Cheng how to use a one-handed sword.
And so it went on until dawn.
