The big man with his head wrapped in a red scarf stood upright in the middle of the room, like an iron tower. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Gao Tianming seemed to lean on the boss's chair leisurely, but his palms were already wet with sweat. He has been dormant in Liaohai City for many years, and has always shown himself as an entrepreneur, although his own demonic attainments are extraordinary, but there is no chance of actual combat, not to mention that in front of him is a murderer who is famous for killing enemies in battle.

Magicians are certainly beings who transcend common sense, but magic itself is not created for combat. Magicians all over the world, regardless of their school or principle, have the ultimate goal of exploring the most fundamental truth of the world and understanding the origin of everything, namely.

Reach the "roots".

Therefore, the magician himself is like a scientist in another dimension, magic is a practice to confirm a theory, and combat ability is just a by-product, not the magician's original intention.

But there are exceptions in any group, and Zhou Pojun in the magic world of Shenzhou is a famous magician mercenary.

Zhou Pojun, not so much a title, is better to say that this has become the name of this red scarf man, and the footnote of this name is the tragic death of dozens of magicians and nearly 100 special soldiers on the battlefield of a certain country.

It is said that Zhou Pojun was just a newcomer in the mercenary world at that time, and no one knew why he, as a magician, would choose to become a mercenary who worked hard for money. Some say that he is the widow of an ancient family that was tragically destroyed, and went to the battlefield in order to hone the art of ultimate revenge; Some people say that he is a young master who ran away from his family in anger, and went to death in order to find the meaning of life; It is also said that he is an apprentice who is not recognized by his mentor, and that he became a mercenary just to prove his strength; Some people even say that he is actually an apostle who implements justice, stops killing by killing, and only wishes that the sins of the world will be borne by himself, and a peaceful and prosperous world will be restored to the world.

And what triggered these conjectures was Zhou Pojun's miraculous record. He was still a newcomer, and in an overwhelmingly unfavorable situation, he brazenly broke into the enemy position alone, and shook the entire enemy camp with the strength of one person. At that time, there were dozens of magicians in different fields, and several of them were known for their actual combat, and these people could even conquer a small country if they used their full strength. What is shocking is that these people did not even cause fatal injuries to Zhou Pojun, and became the ghosts of his subordinates. The special forces used to protect and deal with ordinary people in the enemy army did not escape the doom of death, leaving only one person to escape to the outside world with an iron will, achieving Zhou Pojun's great reputation.

By the time he returned from the battlefield, the plain turban he was wearing had been dyed a rich blood-red color that could no longer be washed off.

Since then, the title of "breaking the army" has spread in the magic world of Shenzhou, the seventh star of the Big Dipper in Shenzhou folklore, the main charge into battle, there is no life or death, which is not only an affirmation of his great military achievements, but also a warning that he is too heavy to kill. However, he himself accepted the title very generously, and over time, it became part of his name.

Now he is a well-known mercenary in the international magic world, known as Zhou Pojun, who is known as "the first in Shenzhou".

Anyone would feel terrified by someone like this breaking into a confidential place, but Gao Tianming seemed to be calm and relaxed, at least on the surface.

Zhou Pojun looked down at Gao Tianming, and his falcon-like gaze scanned the other party for a long time. Finally, the deep voice sounded again: "Mr. Gao, fortunately." ”

Gao Tianming smiled both satisfied and helplessly, looked at Zhou Pojun and said, "A group of unsuccessful little brothers made Mr. Zhou laugh. It was Gao's negligence to keep you waiting, but since Mr. Zhou took over my task, I don't want to destroy my reputation. Moreover, Gao is also a businessman, and he will never treat his partners badly, and Mr. Zhou can rest assured in terms of remuneration. He paused, and saw that Zhou Pojun didn't react, so he had to continue: "Since Mr. Zhou is so urgent, then I will also be open and honest, if you have anything you want to know, or ask for any changes, you can put it forward." ”

Looking at Gao Tianming, who pretended to be generous, Zhou Pojun finally showed his white teeth and smiled.

"The task of finding someone like me to do is nothing more than killing people, as for who the target is and how to do it, those are all things that will inevitably let me know, and I am not in a hurry."

"I only have three questions now, please explain to me Mr. Gao."

"First, I originally thought that the person who gave me the task was an orthodox magician hiding in the secret room of the Magic Society, but I didn't expect it to be the person in charge of the first enterprise in Liaohai City. So shouldn't Mr. Gao confirm your identity as a magician first? ”

"Second, the reward you have offered me is indeed tempting, and my long-standing reputation has made you believe that I will not be able to make money, but what you don't know is that I am planning to retire recently because I have too many enemies." Speaking of this, Zhou Pojun's eyes revealed a dangerous light, and his tone was also full of malicious mockery.

"Third, it's still related to the reward - it's not a benefit that can be obtained by killing one or a few people at all, at least the dignitaries in your Liaohai City can't meet that standard. And if you're really a magician, can I think that killing people is just a prelude, and your real purpose is to perform some kind of ritual like sacrifice? Mr. Gao, don't blame me for thinking too much, it's just that I walk a lot at night, so I will inevitably be more cautious, and I don't want to put myself in it. ”

Zhou Pojun finished a series of questions without hesitation, looked at Gao Tianming's already stiff smile, and ended the question with a gesture of "please speak". And when he made a threatening speech, the female secretary Leng Yanru had already pulled out a charm from the rough ravine, staring at him coldly, but the blonde Claude was sneering and watching the excitement.

Gao Tianming finally let out a low chuckle, and his well-dressed figure stood up from the wide boss's chair, and in his hand was a small cane engraved with a spell.

"Mr. Zhou, I'll answer your three questions now."

"First, please allow me to formally introduce my identity in the magic world, Gao Tianming, a high-level magician. Our magic association is called H Trick Salon, and this is the third generation president, this Claude is the current vice president, and Miss Leng is my special advisor. ”

"Second, wealth moves people's hearts, but if you have a life, you have to have a life. Your Excellency is now in my magic workshop, and in the face of a magician's decades of hard work in magic research, he can still say such a thing without changing his face, thinking that he is just joking with someone Gao. ”

"Thirdly, Mr. Zhou's concerns are not wrong, which makes me more confident that I have chosen the right person. We were able to promise you enough money to spend the rest of your life because we were going to hold a magic ceremony in Liaohai City, but this ceremony should be very different from what you have heard of before. ”

"Because once the ritual is successful, we will have a universal wishing machine that can fulfill all wishes."

"Please don't doubt the authenticity of this statement, because this ritual has been held many times in the city of Fuyuki in the island nation of Fuso, and its summoned existence also proves that this ritual has this degree of ability."

With Gao Tianming's answer, the cane in his palm faintly flowed out of purple-red light, spreading to all corners of the office like vines, and finally condensed into greedy snakes with cold eyes, spitting blood-red long letters and staring at Zhou Pojun. The entire room also showed traces of magic traps in a dangerous purple light, real and false were intertwined, whether on the ground or in the air, danger was everywhere.

Seeing that Zhou Pojun's eyes had finally changed, Gao Tianming said with satisfaction: "And this ceremony is simply a profession within a profession for Mr. Zhou, and it is as easy as a snap." Considering the characteristics of Shenzhou itself, there are a total of 32 groups of people participating in this ceremony, as long as they kill all the competitors at any cost, they can get the only chance to make a wish, which is simple and crude but reasonable. ”

"The name of this ritual is—"

"The Holy Grail War."
