Chapter 226: The Mountain

There was a hint of mockery on the faces of the drinkers, but when they saw the malicious eyes of Harden and others, they quickly hid it, although the corpses in the store were moved out, but the blood stains remained, most of the pirates were bullying the weak and afraid of the hard. Edmund and the others are not as fierce as they were before, and with their background in the East China Sea, it is likely that after what they said just now, they will be exchanged for a storm of ridicule and insults, if they dare not fight back, then this situation will definitely intensify, and even the most timid people will join the army of ridicule.

It's a pity that whether it's Edmond, or Harden, or Selkirk, all of them are men with the most typical pirate fierce character, they don't know any strange philosophical truths, they only know that whoever makes them unhappy must make the other party breathless.

Harden, in particular, can be called ruthless and murderous, and he is like this in the East China Sea, even if he is on the Great Voyage, he will not change his character.

While many people in the store, including the owner, thought the legend of Sky Island was nonsense, those who dared to laugh at them loudly did not.

The boss coughed, hiding his smile, thinking that he had exposed the "lie" of the Sky Island legend to Selkirk.

Many people in the area believe that it is because some unlucky people are riding in the boat that was washed into the sky by the sky, but after falling from a high altitude of thousands of feet, the uninformed people have the idea of the empty island.

When Selkirk heard what his boss said, he frowned, but didn't say anything.

After the group rested in the tavern for a while, and got what they wanted, Selkirk said to his companions on the way: "The sky island should exist, the last time I entered the Great Voyage, I heard that I had seen pirates from the sky island. ”

Edmund said curiously: "I seem to have heard Danpier say about this place, although he has never been to the Great Voyage, but after sorting out the information, he also thinks that the Sky Island does exist, but why do the people here think that the Sky Island does not exist?"

Edmund didn't like to be clever and exposed, and always liked to look down on people, but in all fairness, he had to admit that Danpier was one of the most knowledgeable and intelligent people he had ever met, and he had also seen Danpier's exaggerated collection of books, so if Danpier thought that the Sky Island existed, Edmund also thought it was most likely real.

"The great route is not impossible to have frogs at the bottom of the well. Because he was not too familiar with everyone, Crick, who had always seemed relatively silent, suddenly spoke.

Born in the East China Sea, after coming to the Great Voyage, several people who were always ridiculed and provoked because of their background laughed.

After laughing, Edmund waved his hand: "Is there an empty island, we will explore it by ourselves when the time comes, anyway, we have a hot air balloon, we can go to the sky at any time to see, but before that, the most important thing is to send those young people from the shipyard to the capital of seven waters." ”

……

While Edmund, Chloe and the others were fighting on the Great Voyage, their colleagues in the East China Sea were gathering leisurely.

A mansion in Kalmar City, which used to be just a gangster in the village docks, and the thugs who wandered around the docks have now become the ruling class of the Kingdom of Navia.

Tony, Manny, and Anji got together again after being separated for a long time, and in addition to them, there are many cadres from Momiji Village here, but in this mansion, Tony, Manny and Anji naturally have the highest status.

Tony has been doing public relations and diplomatic work for the past two years, coupled with the experience of wandering the streets in the past, the whole person has become a lot more slippery, and his personal feelings have improved.

Red Leaf Village is the place where William started, although William has always hated his subordinates to engage in mountaineering, and he also has the consciousness to support other forces, but meritorious service can not be rewarded, Red Leaf Village's manpower and material resources have provided a lot of help in the process of William's rise, he can't turn a blind eye, so that other people don't say it, I'm afraid that my heart will also be angry.

At present, there are quite a few cadres from Hongye Village in places such as William's diplomatic department, the Four Seas Trading Company, and the Free Trade Zone, and if they really want to get together, it is actually a lot of force.

"Congratulations, boss. Manny came over to Tony with a glass of wine, deliberately affectionately calling him when they were still messing around a few years ago.

Tony smiled reservedly: "If I don't leave the diplomatic department, then it won't be long before the position of foreign secretary must be mine, everyone knows that the old nobleman who is now the foreign secretary is just a puppet, I was transferred to the Security Bureau, in fact, it is not a high promotion, there is no need to be so happy, but to be able to get the vicious dog of Chloe away, it is a happy event worth having an extra drink." ”

Chloe's first public appearance as William's subordinate was to make meritorious contributions as a spy, and later he has been in charge of intelligence work.

The National Security Agency has been established for many years, has many eyes and ears, and is full of informants, but when its external duties are stripped away and it concentrates on dealing with domestic intelligence, it seems to be more focused, and it cannot be said that it knows all about domestic affairs, but it can also do it in its own mind.

It stands to reason that some of William's cadres, such as Tony and others, should be happy about this kind of thing, but in fact, they have always been dissatisfied with Chloe, who has made the NSA thriving.

Because in the face of the intelligence collection of the National Security Bureau, it is difficult for many cadres to guarantee that they can get out of the matter, although no one specially monitors their every move, but if they really want to do something out of the ordinary, it is difficult to ensure that it will not be transmitted to William's ears by the people of the Security Bureau.

Take the gathering held by Tony now, if it was when Chloe was still in charge of the Security Bureau, even if William was now in retreat and practice, concentrating on studying the Six Styles, Life Return, Fishman Karate, and One Heart Flow, and compiling the textbook he named "Royal Heart Flow", Tony would not dare to do this.

Because this movement will definitely not be hidden from Chloe and his ears and eyes, and will eventually be caught in William's ears by this group of whistleblowers.

Chloe has always been very loyal to William, of course, his loyalty is different from Ah Jin, Ah Jin admires William from the bottom of his heart, and can be called loyal to William, and a large part of Chloe's loyalty lies in his self-knowledge of being able to recognize his own position.

Chloe is clever and cunning, but unlike Crick, who is also clever and cunning and ambitious, he is not so ambitious and needs to be more aware of current affairs.

It is precisely for this reason that when Chloe sat in the position of director of the Security Bureau, he always had a bit of an iron-faced and selfless taste, and he was only loyal to William, because he knew that he could sit in the position of director and have his current status because of William's arrangement, which made other cadres very uncomfortable and had a lot of opinions about him, especially Tony.
