Chapter 59
Just disconnected, the helmet was only half removed...
Bang!
The fist-sized "cannonball" hits my nose again...
The impact and the shock made me struggle violently. The poor swivel chair immediately became unstable and fell backwards with the restless passenger. My hands waving instinctively also knocked down the tool rack next to it. In an instant, all kinds of debris, together with the "sturdy" rack, fell down together...
Bang! Swish, splash... clang!
※※※
"...Thank God for giving me life so that I can find the person who murdered me..." The frightened warehouse manager muttered to himself, staring at the metal rack only two inches away from his head.
Seeing the colorful victims rising aggressively from the garbage dump, the "pitcher" came to his senses and felt something was wrong. He decisively dropped the "weapon" in his hand and turned around to flee.
"I'm sorry... I didn't mean it..." Guan Xin's voice came from the warehouse door accompanied by the sound of high heels running.
"...This girl is so dangerous... She greeted my head with an orange..." When I found out it was her, I could only stare at the fruits rolling all over the floor and angrily took off the camouflage jacket made of oil and white ash. "No wonder her father provides such good employee insurance, there is a reason..."
Just as I put the oranges away, I heard a tinkling sound coming from the corner.
"Hello, Warehouse Management Section 2..." Before I could catch my breath, a phone call came in. I hurriedly picked up the receiver from the ground: "Oh, hello, Director... Yes, I already know, Miss Guan just left me... No, the equipment is not broken, but the ink I collected last time is all on me... Um, um, okay, I understand... Um, um... OK, thank you, Director, goodbye."
My boss's call to the police was obviously an afterthought. After learning about the disaster I was in, the fat director was kind enough to allow me to go home early. Of course, I had to clean up the garbage first.
After sweating for an hour, I finally cleaned up the office. But when I saw the "juicy" helmet at the bottom that was disassembled and covered with soup, I couldn't help but greet Guan Xin's father again in my heart. This father and daughter must be incompatible with me. They must have had a grudge in their previous life, otherwise why would problems arise whenever they meet, and it never fails.
I locked the door with a rage and had no intention of going home. I had to pick up Lin Daiyu anyway, so I planned to take this opportunity to talk to Fourth Brother about it. His grandmother's doorbell system is simply a sieve. Not only did Lin Daiyu sneak in last time, but this time I was almost hit to death by an orange. How could I not talk to the manufacturer about such a shoddy thing?
Walking out of the back door, what a coincidence, it was the place where Lin Daiyu once performed the chivalrous woman performance. This time, sitting against the wall was an acquaintance I had only met once, a cool man with a strong smell of liquor like the pile of cans next to him.
"Hey! Japs," he was obviously coming for me, so I should be more direct, "Are you waiting for me?"
"My! Babu Longyi!" The man with bloodshot eyes could rival the little white rabbit, but his drinking tolerance was obviously not as good as the rabbit's. "I'm going to duel with you!"
"Fight? Why?" I squatted down in front of him and looked at this sushi with a funny look. "Guan Xin? I'm not her husband."
"I know, but she likes you!" His expression was like a trapped animal. He threw the beer can away and grabbed my collar. "Only those who are stronger than me are qualified to be liked by her!"
"Okay! Okay!" Is this guy drunk or is he jealous? I couldn't help but wail in my heart. This daughter is really a broom. Nothing good will come of having anything to do with her. I quickly looked around and thought of a way to help this drunkard sober up.
"How do I think I'm better than you?" He asked casually, and secretly picked up a handy one... Hmm? It seems to be the same one from last time...
"If I compare myself to others, you will say I am unfair..." The wobbly Sushi stood up with the help of the wall: "...a man's! Victory is decided with fists. The one who beats me is stronger than me!"
"Okay, now?" Bullying a drunkard, well, made my little conscience tremble a little.
"Now!" Babulong staggered to the center of the road while preparing to take off his coat, "I forgot to tell you... I'm a third-degree black belt in karate, working together..."
Bang...
"I also forgot to tell you... I'll hit you with a club..." I threw away the stick in my hand, looked at the slowly falling sushi, and said seriously: "How dare you walk in front of me and not hit you, it would be unfair..."
“…”
"...Is he...ok?" As Babu Long fell to the ground , a beautiful lady appeared at the intersection ahead. Well, she was also an acquaintance whom he had met only once.
"You won't die, you're just forced to sleep." I smiled as I watched her wave and a few men in black came over from behind. They were carefully carrying away the head, an imported product as simple as sushi.
"Thank you for showing mercy just now." The beautiful lady walked up to him and bowed ninety degrees with a gentle smile. "Nice to meet you. My name is Yuuki Ruri. Please take care of me."
"Thank you for the potted plants last time." He is polite, so we can't be rude, right? Besides, we still owe him a favor from the party that day. "It's our first meeting. Please take good care of me."
"No, that was just a piece of cake." Yuuki Ruri looked like a weak woman. It was hard to imagine that she could throw a potted plant weighing several kilograms so far and so accurately. "Primates don't work well with alcohol. I'm sorry to have troubled you this time."
"There, it's just a piece of cake this time." This beauty speaks Chinese very well, and the way she smiles with her hands covering her mouth is really charming, with a sugar content of four plus signs.
"Nice to meet you, Ms. Yuuki."
"Haha, nice to meet you, Yan Sang."
※※※
After bidding farewell to the Japanese beauty, I quickly rushed to my fourth brother’s Internet cafe headquarters.
"Which box does your boss hide in?" The girls serving there all knew me, so Yan went straight to the point.
“2F.”
Arriving at the fifth private room on the second floor, bang! He used the assault technique to kick the door open.
"Clear the area! Kick the men down the stairs and carry the women over!" Hmm, it's been a long time since I shouted this slogan. I miss it so much.
There were five people in the room. Two of them who didn't play the game were startled. One of the beauties immediately flew the bitten apple in her hand to someone's gaming helmet.
"Oh my god! Who the hell touched my helmet!" Well, the person he hit was exactly the one I was looking for.
"Yan...Mother! What's wrong?" The beautiful woman who was patting her chest was about to speak to me, but her voice rose octaves when she heard the words.
"Well! Jun Yan? When did you come up?" The fourth brother took off his helmet and naturally became much gentler when he saw his future wife.
"It's been a whole day, and you haven't eaten yet. I came up to see if you guys are starving!" My fourth sister-in-law was just a little hungry, but she knew how to be caring. "I'm looking for you seriously, stop playing, I'm going to cook, and we'll eat together later."
"You heartless guy, when are you going to give me a name?" After my sister-in-law and the waiter left, I glanced at the painkiller wizard.
"Let's talk about it after Xiao Qi goes on home leave. How can we not have all the brothers here?" Fourth Brother stretched and threw me a helmet. "Let's talk nonsense later. It's a good opportunity that you are here. I'll go online to your house first."
"What's the hurry?"
"Come up and talk."
After logging into the game, I activated the Star Beacon according to the coordinates given by my fourth brother. But when the transmission was over, as soon as I saw the object clearly, I subconsciously used the stealth skill.
Seeing Yan suddenly appear and disappear, the people who were originally sitting at the table also jumped up reflexively.
"Haven't you guys fought enough? Be quiet!" The Rose Lord shouted with a headache, "It's serious. Come out. This isn't a group fight."
Actually, I realized after I went stealth that if someone really raided my house, Rose Garden would have been renamed and transferred long ago. But you can't blame me, anyone would have the same reaction when seeing the opponent who had just fought for the whole afternoon.
There were many gods present. The first god of power was the Zero Degree Boiling Point with a cross, the third god of power was the Son of Illusion with a blue sky, the fourth god of power was the Kitchen Knife Kill with Punishment, the fifth god of power was the Demon Wings with purple ripples, and the one who was not afraid of death, Saint...
Apart from Xianyun Nongyue of the second-rank Fengzhi Knights and GS Cola of the sixth-rank Da|Persian Chrysanthemum, my living room has almost become the headquarters of the Divine Power Prison, with no less than thirty golden and red ribbons of various kinds.
Fortunately, the lineup of Qiangwei cadres present was almost equal, which finally allowed Yan to regain some of the feeling of being at home.
"Why do you all come to my house for no reason? Isn't the lord's mansion more spacious?" I came out of stealth angrily and complained to A Zi.
"The Lord's Mansion? I'm afraid they've been crushed by the cuirassiers before they even get close." Qianshan Muxue grinned bitterly. Yes... The four-digit Terracotta Warriors are an eternal pain in Yan's heart.
"What are you guys doing here? Surrender? " I looked at Zero Degree Boiling Point with a face that deserved a beating. "Where did your boss fly to just now? Troll Valley? Spider Corner? Isn't that the home of the Centaurs?"
"Sorry, it should be surrender." Zero Degree Boiling Point smiled like a flower, "Besides, it was a coincidence that I was flying to your house at that time."
"It's serious. Don't make trouble. Come with me to the study. I have something to talk to you about." My fourth brother came in a little late and dragged me to the study.
"...You didn't drag me in here just to see your stupid face, did you?" He stared at me for half a minute, making my hair stand on end.
"...You are really good, stealing has become an international skill. Tell me, do you have the things?" Painkillers asked lazily while hugging their arms.
"Internationalization? What? What exactly are you trying to say?" I was totally confused.
"Playing dumb?" He leaned forward and whispered, "Christian Revelation! Don't tell me it wasn't you who did it!"
"So that's it." I suddenly realized, and thought about Vivian's vivid expression just now, "You won't ask me to give it back to her, right?"
"Bullshit! That thing was actually ordered by me, your brother, from that foreign girl! Who knew I'd run into someone like you halfway through!" The fourth brother cursed in a low voice angrily.
"You paid?" I saw him nod, "You paid without receiving the item? Are you an idiot?"
"Fuck! Do you think I'm crazy? People have already found out that the things are with you, and our relationship is there. How do you want me to explain to them that this is not embezzlement? You are such a fucking idiot!" Mr. Wizard was so excited that he almost bit me.
"Is it too late to play dumb now?" An even worse idea came up.
"Get lost! Zero has a very close relationship with me and Shengjie. Otherwise, they would have hired someone to attack us long ago. Do you think we are just bored and fighting each other this time? We just want to prove that the two of us were not behind this." When talking about this, Liuyun's deputy regiment commander looked depressed. There were heavy casualties, and the most annoying thing was that they couldn't find anyone to take revenge on.
"You care about him so much, the worst that can happen is you change jobs..." I was even more depressed. As the saying goes, a thief gets nothing in return. It seems that I have worked in vain this time.
"You're going to quarrel with your friend just for such a rubbish? Are you still asleep?" Fourth Brother scolded with disdain, "I know you're uncomfortable. You put a lot of effort into catching those two butterflies. I'll give you a little thing as compensation."
“If you hadn’t told me, I would have forgotten that you are so good at ambushes. You achieved a double kill…” Upon hearing that, Yan immediately became energetic and opened the transaction connection with skillful movements.
The fourth brother gave me three things in total: a ring: Door of Flame, a crimson purple belt with attack speed +3 and luck +1, and a white dragon tooth blade.
"That's all?" My eyes lit up, especially the ring. Fourth brother would never know its true purpose. Next time, I must catch the master and ask for advice.
"The rest is useless to you. The ring contains a pyrotechnic spell similar to fireball. I'm a mage, so it's useless. I'll just give it to you to pretend to be a mage. There was also a Tribulation Pill which might be an item for the second-level quest, but it has been taken away by your second brother as a treasure." Fourth brother answered my questions in a disjointed manner while observing the Book of Revelation.
"By the way, why didn't I see Feng Zhi and Da|Persioce today?" I was quite curious about this. The Feng Zhi Knights of the beautiful Xianyun Nong Yue were all mages, and their long-range attacks were comparable to those of a howitzer group. And the Da|Persioce under the command of GS Cola, who was always mistaken for a beautiful woman, were all knights. The two knights' orders were exactly symmetrical.
"Do you think Zero was joking when he said he wanted to surrender?" Fourth Brother stared at me with a half-smile. "Now, except for Tianpeng, everything around the Rose Garden belongs to Shenwei Prison. Fengzhi and Da|Cosmos are happily visiting every territory that refuses to join."
"...Are you sick? Why are you trying to seize so much territories? Are you bored?" It's really incomprehensible. They are addicted to sneak attacks. Aren't they afraid of arousing public outrage?
"You haven't been to the official website in the past two days?" The mage's laughter made me feel like an idiot. "The national model is about to be opened. Now the smoke of war is everywhere, and everyone is busy expanding their territory."
"Country? What's the difference between it and an alliance?" There is such a thing? Isn't there an alliance war?
"Of course there are differences. The drop rate, experience points, and living resources are very different. In addition, the alliance war will be upgraded to a war between national groups, which is a whole level higher."
"But... do you think my sister will agree to join you?" I was a little dazed. With Yan Yu's personality, it was hard to say. If she agreed, it would be fine. But if she didn't, she might really destroy herself along with her.
"……"Hearing this, my fourth brother was stunned for a moment, and suddenly pulled me out.
The atmosphere in the living room outside was quite harmonious. At least there wasn't the bloody scene we had imagined.
"...Sir, are you really not going to reconsider this?" Zero Degree Boiling Point looked calmly at Ah Zi across from him. "Are you that confident?"
"Haha, since we have to choose, why don't we choose a neutral approach? It's a bit cruel to let girls fight and kill each other all day long." Ah Zi leaned back in her chair comfortably, and took out a stack of red scales to fiddle with. "Besides, strength is a threat, and sacrifice is also a threat. It's enough for everyone to know that we have the ability to perish together."
"..." All the lords, including Zero, stared at the reverse scale in the jade hands nervously. Obviously, they all knew the effect of that thing.
"...So, you choose a country of another race?" Zero Boiling Point said slowly.
"If we want to remain neutral, we have to find a big tree to lean on, right?" Ah Zi said with a cunning smile.
"...Okay! On behalf of Shenwei Prison, I agree with your neutrality. I hope you will not be inconsistent in your words and deeds." After exchanging opinions with several other people, Zero Degree Boiling Point stood up and nodded goodbye. "Everyone from Rose is welcome to visit Shenwei Prison in the future."
After those bosses left, everyone present seemed to be able to help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, a group battle that would result in losses for both sides was avoided. Especially Jianjia Cangcang and the others, who looked very happy. It seemed that I, the military officer, was the only one who was confused at the scene?
"Everyone... did I miss something?" Yan asked humbly with a question mark on his face: "We didn't join the Shenwei Prison? It seems that we are not preparing to establish our own country?"
"We didn't join the Divine Prison, and we can't stay in the Northern Alliance, otherwise we will be attacked." Sister-in-law Butterfly began to explain to me, "So... we plan to add an elf country..."
Elves? Haha, they are smart. The war between elves cannot be fought across the Qilian Mountains, and humans are unlikely to throw a declaration of war over the sealed door. It is not easy to find Qiangwei on the head of the fight on either side. It is indeed possible to be neutral. Moreover, it can also trade arms between the two sides. As for neutrality, the United States is the most skilled. Miss Yan Yu is a talent. She is worthy of studying international relations. She has the potential to be a liar.
"So... which tree are you going to lean on?" I looked at the princess, whose expression suddenly looked a little awkward, and a bad feeling welled up in my heart, "It won't be..."
"We all agreed unanimously..." Ah Zi stared at me and said, "Join Silver Oak Leaf."
"..." I smiled and asked softly: "...Who suggested it?"
"...I." The princess looked at me calmly.
"..." I smiled even more brightly. "Do you know that Tianxia Yifa and the others have gone back?"
"Know."
"Haha, so honest..." I turned around and asked Ah Zi. "Has everyone agreed? Has it been decided?"
"That's right!" The Lord's tone was a little warning. "It's already been decided!"
"Very good, I will also vote..." He turned around, gave the princess a big smile, then stared into her eyes and said softly:
"Fuck Silver Oak Leaf! I'm quitting the group!"
