Chapter 627 - Champion Battle Sponsor
Seeing that Arrow was nodding and smiling now, Viscount Ruichi thought that the Mermaid Song had come to him to discuss it because of this matter, so he became even more excited.
He nodded again and again, rubbed his hands excitedly, and said happily, "Right? Right! It's time to start preparing, right? Rest assured! I'm optimistic about your Mermaid Song, so I'll help you win! β
Arrow wasn't in a good mood right now, but his mood wasn't the same as that of the other members of Mermaid Song.
After all, for the other members, this guild championship battle was the equivalent of their first trip to the capital to show off on that huge stage!
Brad and Parfay are hillbilly types, so they are curious about the capital.
Coco has long heard that there are too many delicious and fun things in the capital, and now just thinking about being able to eat and drink in the capital at the end of the year is almost uncontrollable.
Cream seems a little calmer, but as a thief who has gradually grown into an assassin, he is naturally full of longing for the capital.
Margaux was probably the least enthusiastic about the capital, and she looked at her fingernails and imagined what jewelry she should buy in the capital.
When Cheese heard the word "capital", the red in his eyes immediately skyrocketed, showing a very long-awaited color! Because there, there is the best brother in his life......
Even for Suta, Hanhai City, the capital of the Blue Bay Empire, was the place she longed to go to the most now. Because there are a lot of medical resources there, it may be good for her husband's illness.
Therefore, in the entire mermaid song, except for Arrow, the leader, everyone else is obviously more attractive to the guild championship than the so-called dark nature power.
It is precisely because of this that when everyone's eyes were fixed on Viscount Ruichi, the Viscount also seemed even more excited, and said happily: "I have done some research, and there is a special accommodation area for this guild championship battle, but all kinds of daily necessities in the accommodation area need to be provided by the guild itself. So I've packed all the daily necessities in the specific guild's living area! β
Arrow didn't speak, and let the viscount talk about his thoughts over there.
However, just because he doesn't speak doesn't mean that the other members don't talk to me. After hearing that the board and lodging were all-inclusive, Coco on the side immediately jumped out and said with a little expectant look: "Have we eaten everything?" So...... So...... Your Excellency Viscount Ruichi, I would like to ask...... What can we eat? β
The chubby viscount crossed his hands on his hips and said excitedly, "Of course! The main thing is the main product of our Wald family! What a lot of fish we catch in the Wald Fisheries! In addition, fish oil soap, king shell dressing table, coral hangers and other things must be readily available! Don't worry, it won't make your life inconvenient. β
Arrow could only smile now, noncommittal. Margaux continued, "So...... Your Excellency, our Mermaid Song is supposed to help you advertise your family business, right? Viscount Ruichi slapped his thigh hard, happily stretched out his finger and pointed at Margaux, and said loudly: "It's not to help me advertise, but to help me advertise!" Isn't that a matter of course? But it's also good for both of us. β
Then, rubbing his head slightly, as if he wanted the plans in his head to be smoothed out a little, the viscount continuedβ
"Besides, did I just mention your costumes? Well, I don't think I said that. In terms of costumes, all the costumes you went to Hanhai City this time, and all the costumes for the competition were packed by Wald Fishery! I will provide you with special clothes made by our family business, rest assured, the clothes will be clean and there will never be the slightest fishy smell! Of course, if you want to have any style, let me know, and I'll be sure to find the best tailor to sew it for you! β
"And, of course, the most important one! You're definitely going to need protective gear when you're competing, right? Correspondingly, I can also provide you with better and better protective gear! Hopefully, you'll be able to wear those armor and weapons emblazoned with the Wald family and shine in this Guild Championship Battle! In that case, the money I spent was worth it! β
Seeing that the viscount was so elated, Cheese stretched his waist, with a slight sneer on the corner of his mouth, and said: "Speaking of which, you just hope to use the fame brought by the mermaid's song to win all the way to help promote your family business." Let's go! I don't have a problem with publicity, but I don't wear ugly clothes or protective gear. β
Viscount Ruichi's face was directly flat, and he seemed to be a little unhappy, and said directly: "I said you, what's wrong with advertising?" Which guild that wants to participate in Guild Championship Battles does not have a sponsor behind it? You must know that the victor will be able to enter the palace and meet His Majesty, and even witness the moment when His Royal Highness our prince chooses our princess! Such a unique place for publicity, it is not unusual for a guild without sponsors behind it. β
Seeing that Viscount Ruichi was now a little angry, Cream hurriedly stepped forward with a smiling face to comfort him slightly. It's a pity that this viscount doesn't seem to like men to comfort him, and immediately threw off his arms with an expression of "I will be unhappy if you offend me".
There was no way, Cream could only glance at Margaux next to her, and the nun also sighed, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Dear Lord Viscount, this is of course a very easy thing to understand, and please don't be angry because of this." β
Seeing Margaux's face, the unhappiness on Viscount Ruichi's face immediately disappeared! He smiled again and said cheerfully, "Yes, yes! All in all, that's it! When do you plan to depart on this trip? The competition officially starts in November, and we can't sign up for the last time, right? So you're planning to leave in mid-September? I've also covered the travel expenses! β
Although it is so refreshing to say now, the cream still has an eye after all. Seeing that this viscount was now overly excited, he finally spoke, pouring a basin of cold water on him: "Your Excellency, although I am glad that you have given us so much sponsorship this time, so that our itinerary and accommodation problems have been solved...... But just in case, I'd like to ask, since the Guild Championship Fight, you seem to have been very concerned about getting into the Palace. Other words...... You pay a lot of attention to that title. β
"So, if our guild doesn't have the title to win this guild championship battle...... Or in other words, what kind of ranking do you think our Mermaid Song has won in this competition, and you think it is worth it? β
Viscount Ruichi: "Then you need to talk about it?" Champions, of course! β
Without thinking much about it at all, this viscount directly shouted out the true goal in his heart.
"Your guild is strong, strong enough! So I'm very optimistic about you! In addition, the Guild Championship is a tournament that only allows new guilds that can be participated in within three years of existence, and the other guilds are all weak guilds that have just been established, right? There's no reason why your guild would lose to those weak chicken guilds, right? β
Hearing this, Arrow knew he had to speak. If he doesn't open his mouth, I'm afraid that this viscount will ride on the road of delusion, and he won't be able to pull it back: "Your Excellency, as you just said, although the guild championship battle is nominally used to test the strength of the newly created guilds in the Blue Bay Empire. But you should also understand how many people's attention can be attracted by this kind of tournament that is held directly in the Imperial City and is directly tied to the Holy Night Festival. β
Arrow made his voice as soft as possible, smiled, and said slowly-
"If you think this is a very good opportunity to publicize, wouldn't the other chamber bosses think of such an opportunity?"
"So, there must be a lot of money behind the other new guilds. Similarly, in order to prepare for this guild championship battle, there will definitely be many mature adventurers who will join the so-called newly opened guilds under the operation of capital. In extreme cases, it is not even ruled out that a guild will simply dissolve on the spot, and then the guild leader will create a new guild again, with all the members as before, and then participate in the name of the new guild. β
"In this case, you are asking us to win the Mermaid Song...... Heck, of course, it's not that we don't want to win the championship, but it's probably a little out of our guild's capabilities. β
Although Viscount Ruichi didn't like to listen to what the man said, it was very strange that Viscount Ruichi still felt a little comfortable listening to this short guild leader.
He frowned, obviously a little unexpected. After rubbing his neck, the viscount's face crumpled, and he said, "That'...... So what to do? I'm going to help you find new guild members right now! Ah, that doesn't work...... The rules of the Championship Fight are that the participating guild members must have been in the current guild for at least one year...... Damn, what can I do? What to do! What a publicity opportunity! β
Seeing that Viscount Ruichi was now having such a headache, Coco over there seemed to be a little anxious, she shrunk her neck, stepped forward and asked softly, "That...... Viscount Ruichi, if our guild can't win the championship...... Are you not going to sponsor us? β
