Zhou Yu's mind had already begun to think about how to disperse the content of the book and it didn't seem too abrupt, but he was strangled by Cyril's words, and the feeling was like wanting to gasp but being blocked by someone, which was very uncomfortable.
This caused him to sit in place for a long time without being able to react, his face was very stiff, and he subconsciously repeated, "No? โ
What not?
"Nope." Cyril repeated, "The counterweight is the center of gravity of Sada's power, and by doing so, you are challenging his bottom line." โ
Zhou Yu almost thought that he was being worn when he heard this, and looked at him in disbelief, "Are you afraid to challenge Sada's bottom line?" โ
Cyril looked at him deeply.
He wasn't afraid.
He wasn't afraid to challenge Sada's bottom line, from that look, Zhou Yu accurately read this information, and he almost wanted to blurt it out, but he couldn't help it, leaned back on the seat, Zhou Yu took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "I don't need you...... I don't need that protection, Cyril. โ
"Do you think that I will always stay in the Capital Star and just do mental grooming for you?" Zhou Yu spread his hands, and then stared at Cyril intently, "I have thought about joining the army in the future." โ
When Cyril heard the second half of his words, a trace of surprise flashed on his face, he really never thought that Zhou Yu would have such an idea, and after a while, he said in a tone that was even firmer and tougher than before, "Impossible." โ
Zhou Yu looked at Cyril and pretended to be calm, "There is an accompanying guide group in the army. โ
"Yes."
"All guides can sign up."
"Yes."
"Me too."
"No, you can't." Cyril replied without hesitation, without a hint of room for manoeuvre.
It is impossible for him to let Zhou Yu accompany the army, no one knows the bloodshed of the battlefield better than him, where people die almost every minute, and no one knows if he will be the next to turn into bad news. The reason why they can still persist under such oppression is nothing more than not letting their family walk into such a dark and terrifying Shura field.
This is a bottom line that cannot be crossed.
Zhou Yu is not a soldier, and he doesn't need to do this.
Because Cyril has given his life for this war.
Zhou Yu looked at his eyes, only felt as if there was a fire surging in his heart, he wanted to say something but couldn't say it, and after a long time, he forcibly suppressed his emotions, turned around silently and opened the car door, and returned to the research institute.
Cyril didn't stop him, sat in the driver's seat, and looked at his back without saying a word.
Then since that morning, Zhou Yu hasn't spoken to Cyril again, and the two of them disappeared without a trace in an instant in the state that they were in like paint yesterday. And because he was about to go on the expedition, the final inventory and distribution, and the workload of the whole assembly and so on was also very large, so Cyril's time began to become tighter, and he had to ask Chen Lao to pick up Zhou Yu to and from class several times.
At this point, they spent less and less time to see each other, and Zhou Yu just locked himself in his room, didn't know what he was doing, and didn't go anywhere, except for attending classes, routinely treating Mrs. Ouley's wounds, and occasionally seeing Professor Witt. Occasionally, Cyril rushed home in his spare time, and he rarely saw anyone.
Chen Lao once asked Zhou Yu worriedly, but the latter's silence was really like a stubborn stone, and it was useless to beat him.
Although Cyril tried to talk to Zhou Yu every day for the past two days, he was forced to retreat by his attitude every time, and the other party not only didn't talk to him, but even seemed to be so determined that he didn't even want to look at his eyes. Don't even think about sleeping in a room at night, Zhou Yu learned to lock it smartly after searching for the instruction manual, and no one can enter the room.
In this case, Cyril was afraid of adding fuel to the fire, and did not dare to force his way in, at most sometimes he would go to the window to find a gap and stare for a while, and as soon as there was a task, he had to run back to the military headquarters immediately.
During that time, Zhou Yu often went out with Xu Xie and Xu Wei, wandering around the civilian area, and also took time to open a food store on the interstellar network, and contacted a factory outside Clinton's control to help him with processing.
Between the previous reputation in the Capital Guide Academy, the food sold by Zhou Yu was very hot.
Although there are only a few dishes in total, it really has a very considerable income, and it continues to rise, not to mention that there is already a discussion on the forum, and they have said that it is okay to empty the wallet, as long as it can be bought.
And Zhou Yu's blog followers have also soared, unlike in the past because of the title of Cyril's partner, this time most of them are for himself.
However, Zhou Yu seems to be indifferent to this, and in the face of such a big piece of cake, many companies are ready to move, but they are afraid of Clinton behind him and dare not act.
At first, Cyril thought that Zhou Yu had figured it out and wanted to go to food, and of course he was happy to see it, but soon, he found that things didn't seem to be as he imagined.
Zhou Yu not only devoted himself to it, but since he gave the secret recipe and determined the process division, it seems that he didn't care about the store at all, didn't update it, and didn't commit to keeping it secret, basically letting it develop freely, and only caring about the money he received.
After that, the secret recipe of those dishes was quickly spread, and many companies followed suit, and next week Yu is considered to be famous in the interstellar, and everyone said that they were waiting for new dishes. However, Zhou Yu has never moved, he has not applied for a patent, nor has he defended his rights, let alone responded positively to public opinion.
Cyril wanted to use his own forces to carry out a wave of suppression, but he couldn't grasp Zhou Yu's meaning.
He didn't want Zhou Yu to go to the battlefield, and he also didn't want to have a cold war with Zhou Yu, and it was not what he wanted to go on the expedition in a state of cold war, and this anxiety piled up more and more with more than two days of zero communication, so on the night before the expedition, he wanted to find a chance to talk to Zhou Yu, but he didn't expect that because of the empire's upcoming interstellar diplomacy, the military department would be called over to prepare for the deployment and adjustment work.
Although he repeatedly adjusted the time, he was unable to return to Clinton Palace in the end.
That night, Zhou Yu went home from class as usual, went back to his room after eating, packed up some things, and left Clinton Palace on a path.
No one found out.
The capital city star blue card area, late.
The Blue Card District is the most noisy place in the entire Capital Star, where there are all kinds of red light streets, gambling/Bo streets, and underground trading markets, and it is also the most chaotic area in the entire Capital Star.
"Hey! Delimbu! Miss Carchel in the East is going to work! Look at you! Still sleeping! In the alley, a muscular man covered in tattoos rushed upstairs with his waist crossed, shouting happily, it was night, the stars were overhead, and a black shadow on the big tree beside the high wall moved.
"Don't say I didn't remind you," the muscular man didn't seem to care at all about what he didn't get a response to, and leaned against the corner of the wall and took out a handful of Qiheng Stone in his hand, "The West District has played the final tonight, and the fighting king Cassie is there!" โ
"Not interested." There was finally a lazy response from the tree.
The muscular man threw the Qiheng Stone in his hand into the air, caught it and stuffed it back into his pocket, and shook his hand at the figure on the tree, "Don't be so disappointing!" I've bought all your tickets! Cassie hasn't come up for many years, hehe, I don't know, you must have instigated you to sign up at the beginning, maybe who won! โ
As he spoke, he took out two tickets and shook them at Delimbu on the tree, but he didn't expect to be hit by someone unexpectedly, and the two tickets flew out of his hand in an instant.
"Hey! If you don't look at the road when you walk, you're blind---" Before the muscular man could finish roaring, the man immediately squatted down to help him pick up the ticket, handed it to him, and a light apology came over like this.
The strong man's eyes froze, and he saw that the man was dressed in black, covered with a wide blouse, and he couldn't see his figure, and under the light of the street lamp, the gray-black mask on his face was hidden in the shadow of the hat, which looked obscure.
I don't know when it began, every night, there will always be such a group of people in the blue card area, wearing masks and clothes that cover their bodies, at first they just don't want people to know their identities, but then they gradually formed a feature of the blue card area, and more and more people are playing with them, and even later, it has evolved into a large wave of masks walking on the road, which is not surprising, and the blue card area also has a mask carnival once a week.
He is a native of Lanka, he has seen countless people with the same mask, but he has never felt like today, this person feels very clean and mysterious, and it seems to exude a different smell, which makes people's hearts tremble slightly.
The man's outstretched hand was slender, it looked like the bones were distinct, well-maintained, it didn't look like the hands of these civilians at first glance, the muscular man choked, and he couldn't say anything he wanted to scold, so he stretched out his hand to pick it up, but when he saw his black hands that didn't know what they were on, he quickly withdrew them and wiped them again.
During the whole process, the man did not seem to have a trace of impatience, and waited for him motionlessly holding a ticket.
But the muscular man had just taken the two tickets, and the man's figure flashed, and the man was gone.
"Huh?" The strong man paused, rubbed his eyes, and almost thought he was hallucinating, "Damn! What's the situation? Wasn't he still here, Delimbus, you saw that too, didn't you? Delimbus ---"
The branches of the trees swayed, and in the noise of the night, a burst of fragrance swept up with the wind, and on the thick branches, there was still the shadow of Delimbu.
A place like this kind of fish and dragons is like a fish in water for Zhou Yu, half of his life in his previous life was to survive in such an environment, and for a while, he and the madman also avoided human traffickers and ran back to their hometown, they were not familiar with this environment, so he didn't come in for a long time, and he adapted to here.
It seems that many people don't like such places, feel dangerous, or feel dirty, but Zhou Yu often goes to such places even after he had a successful career.
The best way to know a place is not the scenic spots, but places like the Blue Card District, where there is a lot of gossip, true and false, it's all up to you to tell the difference.
"Hey dude, what's Cassie's game tonight! I've got to call it a day early, what do you say? A vendor in the corner yelled at the man next to him.
The man carried the contents of the bottle, and he didn't know what it was, gulped it down, and then stammered, "I, of course, too, have to go!" โ
"Don't blame me for not reminding you, go early, the Fighting King's field will always be full!" A third vendor joined them in the conversation, and it wasn't long before several people were talking.
They didn't notice that in the alley they entered on the corner of the street, there was a man leaning against him.
One of the advantages of this kind of area is that there are many people, as long as you don't do anything out of the ordinary, almost no one will notice you, Zhou Yu leaned against the wall, listening carefully to the conversation of the people around him. This is an ability that he has discovered by accident, and since the last time Madame Aurรฉe fainted, he had sensed the people at the door in his room, and he had consciously or unconsciously begun to learn to let go of his five senses, and when he concentrated all his mental power on one of them, he was able to detect information far away.
And his goal tonight is to fight King Cassie.
He found out this news from the Internet, and after that, he took advantage of the time with Xu Xie and Xu Wei to go out to play, stepped on a few points in the blue card area, plus the map prepared in advance, and now he came to the destination effortlessly.
Fight King Cassie hasn't played a fight for many years, the specific reason is unknown, but this time he is playing with the new King Colin, the old and new king are on the same stage, a huge gimmick, no, the whole Blue Card District is talking about this game.
From the words of those small traders, the unwritten rules of the past were summed up, and they were good with the ones in his head, Zhou Yu reached out and touched the mask on his face.
In case someone finds out, so he didn't buy a ticket, in fact, he probably didn't lose his teeth when he first did this kind of thing, Cassie's gimmick caused several times more people than usual, and he was sparse. However, for the sake of prudence, Zhou Yu still made a ticket by himself in advance, and exchanged a bag of dried fish with Lin Feng for a universal magnetic card, which is said to be open by a medium or lower secret machine.
There are only 3 chances to use it.
He was afraid that the fake ticket would not be realistic, so he just followed the strong man's ticket correctly.
Zhou Yu lowered his head, occasionally looked at the time, the ticket office began to release people and did not rush to go in first, but waited until about the same time, and then swayed into the crowd, the ticket inspectors were really crazy, usually there are only 4 mechanical ticket inspectors, and now there are 6 real ticket inspectors, and they are still too busy, Zhou Yu took the opportunity to mix in very smoothly.
After entering, I glanced at it casually, this is a very large venue, the title of the first fighting arena in the Blue Card District is really extraordinary, although the air is still filled with the smell of all kinds of mixed items, but it is already better than Zhou Yu imagined, looking at the huge fighting ring, Zhou Yu found a corner and stood up.
No matter what period of time, people seem to have an instinctive pursuit of violence, and things like boxing and fighting seem to have not changed much in thousands of years.
Zhou Yu smiled slightly, and then a little black cat jumped on his shoulder.
"I didn't even know you were going to do that." The kitten's voice was heard through psychic induction.
"Little trick," Zhou Yu didn't move a bit, "don't show up, go back and eat dried fish for you." โ
Xiao Hei narrowed his eyes and sat on Zhou Yu's shoulder, his current figure is much bigger than before, and his sense of weakness is gone, Zhou Yu has really improved a lot in terms of mental strength in the past two days, only to hear it meow in a low voice, "You really don't plan to forgive that stupid big man?" โ
It was talking about Cyril, Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Guess? โ
The little black cat flicked its tail, obviously not wanting to pick up his words, and looked down, "I can see you loading things, what?" Are you going to do it yourself? โ
Zhou Yu didn't say a word, didn't pick up the topic again, tilted his head and said, "I have to trouble you to cooperate with the matter for a while, and after you succeed, you will be offered double small dried fish." โ
The little black cat's tail suddenly curled up and chirped.
Zhou Yu hooked the corners of his lips, and glanced in a certain direction.
The fight soon began, and the mere sound of the bell made the crowd of spectators below jump with joy, screaming, cheering, or shouting Cassie's or Colin's name, as loudly as if they could tear down the roof, and a muscular man came out of the stage first, and he roared as soon as he entered the arena, and made a winning move.
"Ahh It's Colin! Colin is out! The audience screamed again and again.
"Oh my God, his muscles are still so perfect! I can't breathe! The other man staggered and waved the small card in his hand.
"Let Cassie die! The era is no longer his! This era is called Colin! โ
In the frantic shouts of those people, Zhou Yu walked through in silence, his inconspicuous dress, coupled with the fact that this carnival was full of people wearing masks, and the hints released by the kitten on his shoulder from time to time, no one even noticed him for a while, so he swayed like this, walking and stopping, and finally came to the ring.
At this moment, there was another exclamation from the audience.
"Cassie! It's Cassie coming! Fight King Cassie! โ
Zhou Yu didn't look up, he was looking down at the energy cylinders in front of him.
According to what the small traders said just now, these are the things that will be wiped on the fighters during halftime, and he has checked certain information before, knowing that these things are all locked and completely sealed on the edge of the field, and they look almost as high as Zhou Yu's chest.
Zhou Yu dialed the magnetic card that Lin Feng gave him in his pocket, and there were still three chances in it.
At the same time, a whistle sounded on the stage, and the sound of heavy punches followed one after another, exploding sparks in the ears, coupled with the shouting and shouting below, which was deafening.
It was under such a sound that the lock of the energy cylinder made a very subtle sound, and almost no one could hear it clearly in such a noise, the corners of his lips under the mask were slightly hooked, Zhou Yu took out a test tube from his pocket, opened a little bit on the energy cylinder, and then poured all the contents into it without a trace.
Turning off the energy cylinder again, erasing all traces, Colin in the ring has been knocked to the ground by Cassie with a heavy punch, and his hands and feet are choked.
"Oh my God! Colin! Knock that guy out of the way with your body! A fan wearing a Colin mask shouted below.
"That's right, Colin! Cassie's old guy is too old! Crash out of him! Victory is yours! โ
"Fight King Cassie, take him down! Let him know who's in charge in the ring! โ
In the midst of a round of cheers, Zhou Yu successfully turned to another energy cylinder, but in a few seconds, he repeated the action just now. When I looked up again, I saw that Colin had already untied Cassie's move and was taking two steps back to attack again.
Zhou Yu's eyes narrowed.
These two people are not superpowers, they are all ordinary people, because ordinary people can still use some drugs, especially external injuries, so they can withstand this kind of behavior that spends their bodies, so that almost all of them in this fighting arena are ordinary people.
But Colin can't do it anymore.
Zhou Yu glanced at his trembling left calf, put his hand โกโก pocket, took two steps back, and glanced in a certain direction, and then gradually squeezed out of the crowd.
The moment he exited the door, the halftime whistle sounded, and immediately a staff member stepped forward to open the energy cylinder, grabbed a handful and wiped it on them.
This kind of fine energy molecule is in this way to strengthen the epidermis's ability to resist fighting, and the corners of Zhou Yu's lips hooked, and he completely turned around and left the fighting arena.
That night, he walked around the entire Blue Card District, and before going to the fighting ring, he also put different baits in different places, and he did this preparation for two days, the scope was not large, but the points he chose were very accurate, even when he was in class, he pondered the map of the Blue Card District.
It's just the first wave, so he doesn't do much.
Cassie's game was the final flashpoint, and it was almost time to go back.
Zhou Yu thought, he went around for a while, and suddenly walked into an alley, as long as he got out of here, he could completely leave the Blue Card District, but at this moment, a voice sounded behind him.
"Is that all there is to it?" It was an extremely lazy and wild voice, and then the man seemed to take a breath and said lightly, "White wave water doesn't work for me, guide." โ
