The Lone Wolf of Tomorrow's Ark
Page 334
"Ah... uh... this..."
When asked by Koval, Maria blushed immediately after recovering. She didn't know whether she was overheated or something, but she actually attacked Phoenix in such an instinctive manner. Now that I think about it , That's a shame, she doesn't even dare to look at Phoenix now.
In the end, Maria simply tried to change the subject:
"That... the opponent for the next match has been decided..."
"Oops~ Changed the subject, I'm shy, there's something wrong~ Hahahahaha..."
"Hmm...(≧△≦)"
"Okay, you old gossip guy, haven't you seen the girl shy?"
Fortunately, Martin understood Maria's shame and directly stopped Koval's teasing, and Maria also took advantage of the gap to adjust her breathing quickly so as not to faint from her heartbeat. The protagonist, Phoenix, opened the mouth and said:
"Then do you have enough confidence?"
Rather than letting Maria tell the story of everything shyly, Phoenix is more inclined to pay attention to Maria's next game, at least not to embarrass the girl.
Hearing Phoenix's question, Maria clenched her fist slightly, and said with firm eyes:
"I can definitely do it! I will re-enact the miracle of Linguang! But not like my sister, but I belong to myself! Maria Linguang's miracle!"
Hearing what Maria said, Phoenix nodded with satisfaction. Compared with her previous appearance, Maria has obviously untied the knot in her heart called 'Bright Knight', but the voice just said However, Lao Fu poured cold water on his face with a slightly unbearable expression:
"...It's not that simple, girl..."
"Old man! If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb! Even such a good wine can't stop your mouth?!"
"Let him talk, Koval..."
This time it was Martin who spoke. As the knight with the best historical record and the oldest qualifications in the bar, Koval could only sigh and sit down to drink, while Lao Fu continued:
"Zofia didn't stop you from participating in the Knights Special Championship at the beginning because she thought you would lose or you would definitely get injured... In Kasimir's place, there is no fairness in knight competitions. Once you set foot on a higher level, what you face is no longer the opponent in front of you... but the game between companies, the game between companies, and the struggle between families.
Even the Supervisory Council can't get involved at all. The ownership of the rights of the Knights Association, the Grand Knight Commander, and the directors is more chaotic than imagined... But I'm not trying to persuade you to give up, 'see the suffering and then sprint forward', Recognize all this and hit those guys up for us old guys to see! "
Although it was cold water at the beginning, it was full of encouragement afterwards, which was very encouraging to Maria. At this moment, Maria suddenly felt that she was on fire, and even the motivation to chase Phoenix was stronger. Quite a lot... huh? ?
"jingle……"
"Welcome light..."
The bell at the door rang, and a new guest came in. Martin had subconsciously greeted him at first, but after seeing this person's face clearly, his expression suddenly cooled down, and he said in a cold tone:
"You are not welcome here, please leave."
The person who can make Martin, who has always been peaceful, treat him with such a cold attitude is none other than that annoying spokesman, Charney.
Even in the face of Martin's cold stare and order to chase away guests, he was unmoved at all, walked calmly into the bar, closed the door by the way, and said:
"Don't say that, old friend, Trembling Iron Knight, your sacrifice has brought us a long-lasting heat. I respect your temperament on the field."
After hearing Charney's words, Phoenix, who was drinking juice, suddenly frowned and turned his head to look at Charney. He always felt that the voice and appearance were familiar to him, but he couldn't remember when he saw him. Pass……
"who are you?"
Clearly feeling Martin's hostility, Lao Fu also frowned and asked Charney, and Charney said the old man's information quite calmly:
"...the second-order knight Fogwald...the retired second-order knight, or should I call you Bart Bayar? I don't know if it's pronounced like this..."
"Hey, your posture really makes people feel awkward!"
Hearing that Charney talked about his friend's past, Koval's face was full of displeasure, and he stood up abruptly, his arms full of tendons were also slightly raised. Obviously, if Charney dared to continue to say something If it is annoying, Koval will definitely knock out his two teeth without hesitation.
It may be that the physique of the Ursas, the ancestors of Koval, gave Charney a certain sense of oppression. Charney hurriedly took two steps back and said:
"Oh, no, don't be so tense, I'm not a knight, I'm just a hard-working civilian..."
"Hey?!"
Hearing that Charney was still eloquent, even Lao Fu couldn't help it, and the scimitar around his waist was unsheathed a little, but at this time, Martin stopped them:
"Calm down, both of you!"
"... If my bow was in my hand, you would never dare to talk to me like that."
After speaking harshly to Charney, Lao Fu sat back to his original seat, and Koval also sat down with a frown. At this time, Charney seemed to understand that there are some old-fashioned knights who are not easy to mess with. The original arrogance also restrained a little, and said:
"It seems that I made a slip of the tongue, and I'm sorry if I offended you."
Listening to Charney's words, Martin's mood did not improve at all, and he still said with a cold face:
"Let's get rid of these attitudes of obedience and disobedience. What do you want to do here?"
"...I'm just an employee. Naturally, I'm here to convey the arrangement of the Knights Association to Miss Maria Linguang, Miss Maria?"
"Ah...uh, I'm here."
Turning around and looking at Charney, Maria felt a little restless, because Charney didn't feel good to her, like a smiling tiger, while Charney continued to show his Signature fake smile, said:
"Your opponent in the next match has already been arranged."
"...This kind of thing needs you to come in person?"
Martin's words were full of ridicule towards Charney, but he himself was as unmoved as he was with the 'plastic' knight, and said:
"That's right, but I prefer to do it myself, so that I can accurately understand all kinds of problems in the work process...Of course, I also have some small selfishness of my own. For the younger sister of the 'Bright Knight' Margaret Linguang, now I can't bear the curiosity of the young knight who is in the limelight.
Moreover, the current popularity of many seed players who are expected to enter the special championship are all inferior to Miss Maria. This is part of your strength as a competitive knight, and it is also your advantage. I hope you can use these advantages reasonably, and I There are... some good contracts here too.
Compared with those sponsors who approached you privately, I guarantee that here are all knights joining and big companies beyond your imagination..."
"Okay, stop, we're completely tired of your sales pitches, Maria has her own ideas."
"That's right! Your acts of trampling on the honor of knights are nothing short of blasphemy against knights!"
Facing the joint shouts of Martin and Lao Fu, Charney's expression did not change, thought for a while, and said:
"Glory? Ah... yes, glory, the knights of war are guarding the dawn fortress on the frontier, and competitors of all sizes are also creating benefits for Kasimir. Glory, where is the glory? Has it disappeared? No, no one can take the glory To expel Casimir, even if thousands of companies, large and small, join forces with Casimir.
Is that the knights reduced to tools of war, blinded by interests?Are the knights themselves giving up their glory and forgetting the past?It’s not right, that’s really underestimating the knights, even the directors dare not say that the knights have been reduced to puppets, so why should we feel sad for the thriving knight competition...”
"Ah... that's right, I remembered, this familiar sophistry of capitalists is so familiar and disturbing. Unexpectedly, it's been a long time, and you have become a spokesperson."
Just when Charney continued to say some high-sounding reasons, and the angry old man couldn't help but curse, Phoenix, who had been silent as if he was an outsider from the beginning, spoke suddenly, and his tone was slow. Disdain and disgust.
"Ok?"
Hearing someone interrupting his words, Charney turned his head and looked over strangely, but this glance made him feel a chill down his back. Charney knew that the person sitting with Maria was the popularity The first 'lone wolf', but he doesn't remember that he knew this knight, so what's the matter with this sense of crisis that seems to be suppressed by nature?
While Charney was thinking wildly, Phoenix slowly took off his hood, letting his silver hair that had not yet changed back spread out, then the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, his pupils shone with red light, and he turned his head to look at Charney, After seeing Phoenix's face, Charney's face turned pale in an instant. Obviously, he should know Phoenix.
"This is really, long time no see, company dog, Charney?"
The familiar address, the familiar tone, the familiar appearance, the familiar cold air, these points combined together formed the most terrifying nightmare in Char's heart - the silver wolf!
Yes, Charney also knew about the 'Silver Wolf', and it was also when Phoenix assassinated Casimir's top management. His role at that time was just a person sent by his superiors to lead the way for the 'Silver Wolf' carefully. It's just my little guy.
It was also at that time that Charney heard Phoenix call himself a company dog for the first time. At first, Charney was not convinced, after all, no one would like someone to scold him, but this nickname followed that scene. The heavy snow that accompanied the massacre at night was firmly imprinted in Charney's head...
"This... this is really... disrespectful..."
After confirming the identity of the person in front of him, Charney's original arrogance completely disappeared without a trace, because he knew that even a black-iron-level killer of the Wuxi League would have to fight in front of this person. Carefully, rounding it up like this, he is equal to a famous black iron killer. Thinking about it, he is quite awesome...
Just kidding, facing this kind of character that the entire board of directors ordered not to be provoked at will, Charney dare not even have the slightest thought of breaking his mind. After all, the 'Silver Wolf' is completely different from the Wuxuanmeng.
Attached to Casimir's establishment of the Wuyu League, if he insists on assassinating a high-level business association, it is estimated that the final result will be that he will not die but will also peel off his skin. In the end, his vitality will be severely damaged. It can be said that he will hurt a thousand enemies and damage himself eight hundred.
But what about 'Silver Wolf'?Not to mention letting people peel off their skins, depending on their combat power and status, if he wants to, he can let the entire board of directors reshuffle the cards directly.
And then, because the Chamber of Commerce was not welcomed by the local knights, the information about the frozen Chernobog was still there.
It is said that the Pope's Knight, who is the most powerful in Casimir, will definitely not make a move. Therefore, it is too late for the directors of the Chamber of Commerce to please the 'Silver Wolf'. How could they take the initiative to provoke him and ruin their own great path? ?
PS: All verbal vows to eachother are worthless paper that can be torn up at will...

Chapter 410 The second move
"Ah this..."
After seeing being scolded by Phoenix as a company dog, Charney still put on a frightened look. Both Lao Fu and Koval were a little dumbfounded. You must know that Charney, as the spokesperson of the Chamber of Commerce in recent years, Many people have experienced the kung fu of that lip service, and they have never suffered any disadvantages in life. They are just like being a lawyer.
But now, this Charney is willing to deflate. This kind of performance makes Lao Fu and Koval look like they have discovered the new world, and they start watching the show while drinking.
Seeing the sudden change of Charney's face, Phoenix didn't say anything, just picked up his own juice, and blew lightly from the mouth of the cup, and then saw frost blooming on the outside of the cup, and then, Phoenix took a sip slowly .
During the whole process, Charney stood aside respectfully, without the slightest sign of daring to speak actively. Leaving aside anything else, Charney's self-consciousness as a subordinate is at the full level.
After putting the juice back on the table and enjoying the feeling of pretending, Phoenix opened his mouth and said:
"What are you still doing here? You don't have a job here?"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't expect to trouble you to remind me, so I'm very frightened."
After quite naturally flattering Phoenix, Charney looked at Maria sitting next to Phoenix, and then tried to maintain his most peaceful attitude, saying:
"It's like this. Your Excellency Maria, your match is scheduled for three days later. The opponent is the 'left hand', the 'left hand' knight Titus Baiyang..."
Hearing this name, except for Phoenix, all the people present had expressions of astonishment.
'Left Hand' Titus, the starting knight of the Knights of the Edge Helm, is a knight far more famous than the original 'Rusty Bronze' Ingra. Linguang changed the name of the high-ranking knight to 'Yao Knight'.
A knight of this level is already able to compete for the championship of the special championship, but he has not been quite yet to face Maria so early. This also makes Martin and the others a little worried, for fear that Maria will suffer irreparable damage. .
At this time, I didn't know what Charney was thinking, and continued to say:
"Your Excellency, please forgive me for talking too much. If Your Excellency Maria accepts any request I make to you, then even if Miss Maria misses the Grand Tournament, I can still guarantee the Linguang Family's status as an orthodox knight. Sure enough, it must be like this, Your Excellency Whipblade and that one can feel at ease, right?"
Hearing Charney's words, Phoenix smiled dismissively, and then continued to drink his own juice. Don't talk about Maria who is now untied, even Maria who was paranoid at the beginning would not Accept any cooperation that Charney says.
Not only Phoenix, but even Martin and the others thought so, but Maria's answer stunned them all.
"Well, I want to ask, which one has the best salary in recent years? Is it enough to hire a church to hold a wedding? What about the follow-up salary? Is it enough to support a family?"
When she asked these few words, Maria's expression was serious. It was obvious that she was really thinking about the cooperation of the company, and these actions made everyone present speechless. I was surprised for a while, then immediately replied
"Ah, this... of course it is enough. Although I am surprised that you have a sweetheart, the company's rewards are never stingy. As long as Your Excellency Maria is still hot, your monthly income will be the lower city The sum of the income of residents for one year or even several years."
"Is that so...then it would be better for you to introduce me?"
"Ah, yes, please wait..."
"Maria! What are you doing, Maria! You can't be defeated by capital! This is not what your uncle, Zofia, and we want to see!"
