Chapter 61: Cold-hearted teammates
"I've awakened my spiritual power purification ability!"
"......" Thorpe.
I thought that the other party would at least be surprised, but I didn't expect it to be so calm, Alan asked strangely, "What is your expression?" β
"Don't be surprised, or you can see it, cold." Thorpe felt the need to practice this expression regularly in order to be ready to respond to every surprise that Eren gave him.
"......" Allen.
"Actually, when the results of your genetic grade were reported by the media, my mother told me that you are likely to awaken your spiritual power and specialize, but we just guessed the wrong direction at the beginning."
Seeing Allen's puzzled face, Thorpe showed a simple smile and explained to him: "Do you think, your father Lieutenant General Randall is a super powerful mecha warrior, and your mother is also a super talented quasi-mecha warrior, so it stands to reason that you are not the most likely to awaken your spiritual power beast?" I thought we could train together in the future, but the result was ...... Of course, the purification ability is also pretty good, and the chance of awakening is less than beastishness! β
Chatting and chatting, he suddenly thought of something, and said jokingly: "So, your situation is completely opposite to Arthur of the Atfield family, what a coincidence!" β
"Arthur?" Alan is not like Thorpe, who has a thoughtful mother by his side, who can always remind and teach, so he doesn't know much about many aristocratic families, and at this moment, when he heard Thorpe suddenly talk about Arthur, he was a little puzzled.
"Isn't Arthur the second son of the Patriarch of Atfield? His parents and brother are all pharmacists with spiritual power purification, as well as his uncle, you know, it is the high priest of Elijah, who is the top apothecary, under this kind of strong gene, Arthur actually awakened the ability to transform spiritual power into a beast! β
Thorpe felt quite amazing while explaining: "Isn't this just the right adjustment for your situation?" β
Looking at Thorpe, whose eyes were shining, Allen felt a little weak in his heart - well, he really didn't know about Arthur's situation, but his own situation was indeed quite special......
Alan laughed wryly, trying to shift the conversation to Arthur: "This kind of thing, it's not absolute...... Arthur struck me like the High Priest Elijah, who was so gentle, friendly, and gracious...... To be honest, at first I thought he must have the ability to purify his spiritual power! β
Because the two meetings with Arthur were in very special places, Alan did not tell SΓΉ Thorpe that they had met in private, and Thorpe naturally thought that Allen, like him, had met Arthur by chance at the freshman opening ceremony or at the academy.
So at this time, listening to Allen's description of Arthur's appearance, Thorpe was very surprised: "Allen, your eyes are a little bad this time!" β
- Arthur seems to be even more aloof than His Highness Kyle, where do you see gentleness and friendliness?
"......" Allen.
was complained by a friend, and Alan was about to ask Thorpe why he said that his eyes were not good, when the other party suddenly said with envy: "You and Kai...... The relationship with the royal family, now that he has the ability to purify, isn't it often possible to communicate with His Royal Highness Villanica?! Oh, what a blessing! "The appearance of a young nymphomaniac is unmistakable!
"......" Allen.
Allen, who was led astray by Thorpe's words, did not continue to ask about the "bad eyes", and they had a "fierce" discussion on "why there are so many beautiful women around Allen (Veranika and Elena) but they are all relatives, is this lucky or sad", and time passed quickly!
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
At this time, on Kuntai Mountain, the participating teams are actively preparing for the competition!
Since Kyle's team had four mech students, it was a big departure from the three-person position they were used to.
So during the training camp, in response to this change, Kyle's think tank and themselves studied and discussed a variety of formations to deal with various problems that may arise in the game.
They had always used Kyle's dedicated simulation room, so there were always only four people on the huge training grounds, but Heller often had the feeling that after three weeks of running-in, they still seemed to be a three-man team, and Arthur.
"Damn, it's really tm drag!" Heller switched to a private channel and yelled at Philos.
Just now, they teamed up to fight against the simulation system, using a 2+2 symmetrical formation, this formation is highly aggressive, and it is easy to form a trap on the enemy, and it is also the combat formation that they have focused on practicing in the past two days.
The four of them were the first, second, seventh, and eighth students in the school, and they must all be excellent in terms of personal ability, and Heller and Philos have always been by Kyle's side, not to mention the tacit understanding between the three.
They have just done a near-perfect job in all aspects of positioning, changing formations, attacking and defending, and even once again set a new record for the efficiency of group attacks......
But Heller still felt very unhappy!
Philos had also been in a group with Arthur, so he naturally knew Heller's feelings, and he had a deep understanding of Heller's grievance that he "didn't know what to complain about".
The blue mecha beside them, a superfluous move, no! A superfluous word, and no! Even now, as it is now, they have apparently switched private channels to "chat", and the other party is only silent, forever silent - as if never trying to blend in with them or giving them a chance to get to know him.
Even if your teammates are so unsociable, you just can't complain about anything!
Because people are impeccable in terms of personal strength and ability to cooperate, even if there is a lack of communication, they can make the most correct and effective response in the first time, and complete all the "tacit understanding" cooperation you need, not to mention dragging their feet, it is simply a divine assist!
If Philos were to describe what it's like to fight with Arthur, it's that your teammates don't seem to be alone, but rather an emotionless, but accurate machine!
"It's okay to open a private channel, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it." Hearing Heller's angry voice in the liaison, Kyle muttered, and immediately turned off his private rights.
Back on the public channel, there was another silence.
Knowing what they had just communicated in private, the owner of the blue mecha had no curiosity or inquiring at all.
Kyle brought up the number of the exercises he had just finished and discussed the mistakes and areas for improvement with the group, when the owner of the blue mech joined the conversation, his voice calm and without a hint of emotion.
β¦β¦
Coming out of the training room, the three of them watched the silver-haired young man salute Kyle and then left alone, the tall back was tall and gloomy, lonely and proud.
Heller held back for a while, and finally couldn't help but say, "Next time, let's take him to the bar to have a good time, man, drink together, talk about women, and you will be able to get acquainted soon!" β
Philos glanced at Heller, then at His Royal Highness Kyle, who was expressionless, and sighed inwardly.
Sitting on the empty track back to the castle, looking out the window at the rapidly receding things, Kyle couldn't help but think of what his father, Salvin, had told him.
"Arthur and his father Clarence are not very harmonious, this time he obeyed the other party's arrangement, gave up the qualification to form a team alone, and joined your team, it can be said that he made a huge compromise, whether there will be dissatisfaction in your heart, you have to be mentally prepared."
"However, Arthur was brought up by the High Priest Elijah, and his character and credibility are absolutely fine, and his personal ability is also extremely strong, and the combination of the four of you, if you cooperate properly, will definitely be very competitive!"
"Kyle, you must know that some people are born to be submissive, even if you are the future emperor, don't abuse the power that your status brings to you, and force a person to obey you - you have to use respect and understanding in exchange for sincerity and trust......"
- But father, if the other person's mind is unfathomable and he has put up a high wall, then how do you know how he really feels in his heart?
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
In the prince's living room, Alan was sitting on the sofa reading a book, and the little tiger was lying in his arms, "reading" with him.
The little guy was still very quiet, but after a while, he seemed to be bored, so when Alan was about to turn the next page, he suddenly stretched out a small claw and pressed the corner of the page to prevent Alan from turning over.
Alan stroked its little head with his hand and asked lovingly, "Would you like to get a toy for our cub to play with?" β
He was preparing for the junior pharmacist qualification exam, and he hadn't even been to the practice room of His Royal Highness Kyle, and now that he was bored with the little tiger with him, he wanted to find a toy to attract his attention.
"Woohoo!" When the little tiger heard this, he immediately grabbed Allen's chest, reached his collar with his little paws, and looked like "I don't want to play alone (tiger), I want you to play with me".
Those bright amber eyes were full of anticipation and longing, so that "Meow Slave" Alan couldn't bear to refuse!
"Alright then, I'll play with you for a while." Alan is completely untouched by this "sweet burden" - it seems that he can only read the book while the little one is taking a nap.
β¦β¦
When Kyle walked into the living room, he saw that his three-headed brother was "pounced" on the sofa by his three-headed brother, stepping on each other's stomachs and chests with four small short legs, and making a cheerful "whoop" sound while jumping, not to mention how happy!
The fiancΓ© who was "knocked down" by it was not only not angry, but also laughed heartily, and the eyes of encouragement and love immediately aroused the arrogance of the little guy, and it took three steps and two steps to Allen's mouth, and kissed it with a "chirp!!
So His Royal Highness's brother walked over with a black face, three steps and two steps, and scooped up this "little villain" who didn't know how to avoid suspicion at all!
- Didn't you say that you can't kiss it?
- Hum! Why not?! This is my Ellen! Whew!
I didn't know that the two Highnesses were fighting with each other, and I didn't know that I had successfully attracted the "brotherly wall", "Blue Face and Trouble" Alan sat up from the sofa, smiled sweetly at His Royal Highness Kyle, and saw that the little guy was struggling to twist his body, so he reached out to take the little tiger and hugged him.
Kyle glanced at Allen, who had no idea what he was angry about, put the little one back on the couch, picked up Allen, walked briskly to the bedroom, threw him on the bed, and began to unbutton his shirt.
Stunned to see His Highness Kyle take off his shirt and prepare to continue untying his belt, Alan turned his head to the other side with a red face, helpless and ready to escape from the bed, but was immediately crushed under the other party.
"Temple...... Your Highness...... What are you doing?! β
With a hint of helplessness on his handsome face, Kyle lowered his head and dropped a kiss on Allen's lips, "What do you say I'm going to do?" β
