Chapter 7: The Underground of the Karumon Chamber of Commerce

As You guessed, almost all of the people in the Karumon Consortium moved to the Orchid Tower to serve as guards, leaving only trustworthy bodyguards and a handful of guards in their lair. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Understand that there is a limit to human energy. It's hard enough to keep a person on guard for 8 hours. 12 hours is already terrible. If it's 24 hours, it's no longer a guard, it's simply a way to let people pass.

So, shift work is a must.

Even if the people of the Karumon Consortium only need to work a minimum of two shifts, then the estimated 640 people in the previous tour will be doubled to 1,280 people, let alone the number that the fighters of the Karumon Consortium can make up.

Therefore, in the Karumon Arms Chamber of Commerce, there were only five or six soldiers waiting for guests near the counter, and they could no longer feel the smell of soldiers inside.

Like a fortress, the Karumen Arms Chamber is extremely strong, because this consortium has an exaggerated style of acting and has made countless enemies, because their buildings have always been based on the premise of "being attacked", and the construction style attaches importance to functionality.

For this reason, the underground passages were built to be extremely narrow, in an effort to prevent the enemy from having a numerical advantage when the enemy attacked. Even if it is a million-strong army, in the tunnels of the Karumun Consortium, there are at most two people fighting side by side, the others can only stay in the back and watch, and the spearmen can still put their guns over the shoulders of the front row, and the archers will not be able to shoot - the ceiling is also low.

Walking in the underground passage, You Tatsumi was especially glad that the Karumun Consortium had really come out, otherwise it would have been difficult for him to sneak here. After all, there are so few routes to choose from.

After walking aimlessly for a while, Yu Tatsumi came to a place that made him so stunned that he couldn't be stunned anymore.

That's the sky.

Underneath Crossbell, I saw the sky......

The sky is as blue as a wash, and there are flowing white clouds.

Under the blue sky, there is an oriental-style courtyard, with golden cornices decorated with red, blue and green glazed tiles, and bright red pillars supporting a wide religious building.

In front of the door is a green lawn and a flowing pool, in which the startled deer are making a soft clatter. (Note: The startling deer is the bamboo water utensil that is common in Japanese animation, and the thing that catches water in the yard and falls down when it is full, and then makes a clattering sound.) )

Hey, hey, you're exaggerating, aren't you?!

You couldn't close his mouth, because his extraordinary eyesight already understood what the "blue sky" was.

The answer is sapphire.

Behind the sapphire crystal, a guiding light is laid to create a feeling of being outside.

Hey, that's not how money is spent!

By the way, those white clouds are special conductive veins of flow, which move much faster than ordinary clouds.

You took a closer look at it and found that it was full of the smell of life.

Is it Karumen? Haas's retreat?

It's hard to imagine that such a rough martial artist would have such elegant taste.

"Ah, that's exhausting...... Can we have fewer whims? ”

Just when the two were about to look for a way to the next place, suddenly the man's voice came, and the two hurriedly hidden, fortunately, there were a lot of shrubs planted here, and there was a bamboo forest, and hiding was definitely not a problem.

The visitor was shorter, shirtless, with a white shirt and a red suit on his shoulder, and a wooden hammer with a little glutinous rice on his free right shoulder.

Judging from his size, this person is one of the bodyguards of the Karumun consortium, who killed the Mussell of airships in one blow at the independence meeting? Gerrard.

Beside him was the little witch whose name he didn't know, and she was wearing a black and white witch costume and obediently following him with a wooden barrel.

No, it's not well-behaved at all, because after hearing Musser's complaint, she frowned like a cat that had been stepped on by the tail, snorted, and hit back with all her might: "You are my bodyguard!" Just make a rice cake, don't be tired! ”

"No, no, no, I don't feel tired, I just said, don't you think the time is not right to eat 'New Year' cakes in the summer? Is it true that the year of Saiaru passed in the summer? What a novel setting! ”

Not to be outdone, Mussell immediately choked back with a sentence. The little witch also pouted, and the look of dissatisfaction on her face became more obvious, and before she could speak, Mussell continued to complain:

"Remember, you said you wanted to eat soba noodles, and I made it, right?"

"Hmm."

The little witch nodded.

"No complaints, right?"

"Hmm."

"Yes, besides, last time, you said you wanted to eat boiled meat, but I still went to the city to hunt a lot of monster meat for you, and I didn't complain, right?"

"Well, it seems so."

"So, I'm not one to complain. But that's weird today, isn't it? It's obviously a rice cake, so why don't you let me fight it during the New Year? ”

"But I just want to eat it...... Hey, Musser's words will definitely help me, but I came to ask you for it based on this mood...... Otherwise, I can only ask Dior......"

"Don't! I'm so happy! I'm just bullying you with bad intentions! It's not that I hate beating rice cakes! Long live the rice cake! I have to beat it in seventy or eighty pots every year to be comfortable! ”

The two who were hiding were confused, as if as soon as the name Dio was mentioned, Mussell's attitude changed one hundred and eighty degrees, that is, people within the Karumon consortium knew this reason.

This little witch is the "believer" of Zhao Liyang, the prince of Saiyalu, and the secret contact between the Karumon consortium, similar to a token.

Although Saiaru is a royal state, under the royal power, there is divine power, that is, Saiaru's "witch of time". Placing the current Temp Shrine Maiden under the protection of the Karumon Foundation is a kind of silent support.

As for the reason for not letting her get close to Dior, I said it a long time ago, Dior is too good! really let him and the little witch have been in contact for a long time, and they have been in love for a long time, and they have a elopement scene, so Karumen? Haas's future is gone......

In fact, the shrine maidens of the time who eloped out of love are quite common in the history of Saiaru.

Because the witch of time, as the spokesperson of the gods and one of the exercisers of imperial power, all require lifelong non-marriage. The shrine maiden family will definitely have more children, choose the best one to become the shrine maiden, and the others will continue to carry on the lineage, and when the shrine maiden dies or voluntarily leaves when she reaches the age of 60, a new child will be selected to inherit the shrine maiden's name.

A sixty-year-old woman has basically given up the pursuit of romantic love......

Girls in the flower season are the most likely to receive romantic influences, looking forward to Prince Charming or the Demon Marshal to greet them, when have you ever heard of Prince Charming holding a sixty-year-old lady to spend the moon before the moon?

Yes, there are quite a lot of shrine maidens who elope.

By the way, the shrine maiden who eloped will be relieved of her position as a shrine maiden and handed over to the next generation, as long as she doesn't elope at an embarrassing time when the next generation of shrine maidens has not yet been born, everyone basically doesn't care......

Therefore, Karumen is particularly worried about the scene of the little white-faced Dio eloping with the little witch, so that he is too sorry for Zhao Liyang, and what face does he have to support his coup?

Now in the Karumon consortium, the status of the little witch is actually above Karumun himself, which is very embarrassing, Karumon must not tell her viciously: "Lao Tzu is to prevent you from eloping!" ”。 Therefore, he could only be angry with Mussell again and again: "You kid listen to me, never let the little witch touch Dior......"

To add that, one of the main reasons why Karumon asked Mussell to be the little witch's bodyguard was ...... Musel is too short, completely inconsistent with the image of a tall and handsome prince in a girl's dream...... It made him feel a lot more at ease.

Back to the point, hearing Musel's exaggerated words, the little witch snorted and laughed, this boy who is about the same height as herself is always like this, doing unbearable funny things.

"Does the Erebonian Empire also eat rice cakes?"

"Ah...... Don't eat. Sorry for a little lie. ”

Mussell stuck out his tongue and chuckled at the little witch.

In her life, there are either strict family rules or other people's deference and respect, where can you find someone like Musel who casually jokes with her?

That's why she also likes to play with Mussell.

"So, how are you going to compensate me?"

"Uh...... My little witch lady, what do you say you want me to make it up to you? ”

Mussell bowed like a gentleman, but because he didn't wear a shirt, it was not a gentleman at all, and it was funny, because the clothes on his shoulders fell off because of it, and he quickly caught it.

"Hahaha, you're always so funny. Now, you were in that meeting two days ago...... Killed a lot of people...... Why? ”

"Why?"

Faced with the question of the little witch's slightly heavy face, Mussell frowned strangely, for him, where does it take any reason to kill?

However, if she doesn't answer the little witch's words, she will definitely have to pester herself.

"Hmm...... If I have to say it, it's very pleasant~ Fighting, fighting, taking my life, or my life being taken away. Well, that's it. Exciting, right? ”

Mussell smiled brightly, and there was no gloom on his face at all. The little witch trembled and didn't dare to speak.

Although she is a member of the Karumon Foundation, the little witch is really the conscience of the Karumon Foundation.

"That'...... Mussell...... Can you answer me honestly...... That spear of yours is so powerful, is there no one who is your opponent anymore? ”

"Guiding spear?"

Mussell couldn't help laughing, and the little witch looked at him in amazement, not understanding why he was laughing.

"Well, let me tell you the truth~~ The secret ...... of my guiding spear" (To be continued.) )
