"As long as you like, I will satisfy you with anything. But from another point of view, you have to satisfy me, too!" Erica gladly accepted Evan's request, and naturally put forward her own needs:

"In order to give each other the best impression in the real world, I ask you to wear the crown of Menes to watch the performance, and it would be even better if you could wear the emperor's dress!"

"Do you like this style?" Ivan was taken aback.

"Women are creatures that pay more attention to appearance and appearance than men, you like cosplay, and so do we!, but I am more demanding, and I am not interested in those fakes that pretend to be majestic, and I have always looked forward to a wonderful encounter with the real king. It's a pity that there are not many monarchies in the Federation, and the rulers are either uncles or old people, which is really unacceptable. ”

Erica complained for a long time, and then her tone suddenly became cheerful and lively:

"After all, I also like beautiful boys.,Like you.,Even if it's a role-playing fake, I'm willing to post it upside down.。 All in all, the crown and the dress must be ready, don't let me down, love you!"

"Well, I'd better prepare. ”

Ivan was a little delusional and thought it was fun to play like this, so he decisively agreed.

"Good night, remember to contact me when you have time. ”

Erica sent a reluctant farewell emoji, and then posted a picture of her red lips kissing the screen, and only after getting a good night goodbye from the other party did she change her status to offline.

“......”

Ivan looked at the red lips on the phone screen, first speechless for a while, and then turned into a relaxed smile.

The whole connection with Erica is spent between flirting and being flirted, and if the atmosphere can be expressed in color, then the process of their chat must be a forbidden pink, and occasionally a mosaic.

Evan was originally a person who paid a lot of attention to scale, but she was always inadvertently lowered by her, but after getting used to her style, he was gradually able to fight back. And Erica has a happy attitude towards his change, not so much conniving as encouraging—she seems to really enjoy the process of being teased.

However, he must also admit that it is very easy for each other to flirt with Erica like this. No one regards this as a relationship, and no one cares about the future development, but it is so pure that they can't be purely satisfied with each other.

Here's the difference between Erica and Shamilles, although both belong to the passionate type, Erica pursues direct pleasure and indulgence, love is just the spice of desire, and there is not much difference between her and not. And Charmilles is just the opposite of her, under the passionate and bold appearance, there is a sensitive girl's heart - she pursues a love, not pure carnal desire.

If the former is a hearty spirit, you can enjoy the aroma left between your lips and teeth. Then the latter is a glass of sweet and fragrant red wine that takes a while to taste and aftertaste.

The reason for this difference should be related to each other's experiences.

Although Erica rarely mentions the past, she can know from her previous self-introduction that her life has had more ups and downs. From a professional gunsmith to a popular singer, he has entered the precarious place of invisible space, and no matter what kind of character he used to have, he has now been influenced by this kind of character that goes straight to the point and pursues simplicity and refreshment.

Relatively speaking, Shamilles is still just an ignorant girl who is just beginning to fall in love, although she is also an enthusiastic and unrestrained character, but she has not been stimulated too much by the outside world, and it is unlikely that she will become another Erica.

In all fairness, if there weren't so many troubles around him, he would have chosen Shamilles.

But Evan has a lot of things to think about now, and he really doesn't have the energy to meet a girl's love needs, so he can only put on a herbivorous and abstinent posture to snub the other party.

MMA club, training room.

"Whew!"

Evan exhaled, his whole body moved in unison, the green tendons wrapped around his body like vines, and his skin showed a blue-black color close to iron sand, as if he was wearing an iron armor on his body.

Immediately after, his eyes were full of murderous energy, and the wind suddenly rose on the ground, and after a blink of an eye, his spine moved. Reaching out and probing up, the five fingers were pinched into eagle claws and flung along the arm, and suddenly the strong wind was pulled down like a steel whip, and the five fingers grabbed and closed, and the air in the pinch exploded.

Bang bang——!

Ivan made one move after another, whipping his hand in the wind, whipping in a row, the turbulent air like water waves, and his claws did not leave the imaginary point in the void. Immediately after the move, the action changed again, the eagle's talon was clenched into an iron fist, closed on the waist side and sent into the void, a small base thrash, and the last punch hit the metal wall directly, causing a buzz in the training room.

"Hoo ......"

He exhaled slowly, and at the same time withdrew his fist, and under the peristalsis of the muscles and bones of his whole body, the iron-like blue-black color gradually faded, and he soon returned to his original fair and smooth skin.

"The basic training during this period of time can be regarded as making up for the shortcomings of my forced breakthrough, and the power of mixed martial arts has increased by a small ......."

As he spoke, Ivan stretched out a hand, clenched it into a fist, and violently used his strength, and the arm, which was originally well-proportioned and slender and had no muscles, suddenly became tendoned and fleshy, and swelled several times at once. Thick green tendons bulge out under the forearm, like steel bars that have been tempered for thousands of years, crisscrossing into a 'iron glove' full of deterrence.

Especially his hand, which just now looked white and slender, warm as jade, as if it was a pianist's well-maintained hand. But as soon as luck was met, this hand immediately changed, as if it was an iron mold, with a layer of cold and hard texture belonging to metal, which was almost the same as the cold light of heavy metal on the walls on the four sides.

The high and raised green tendons are intertwined, like a wriggling python, densely superimposed together, extending along the back of the palm all the way to the small arm and big arm, like a mutated arm that has been transformed by biochemical surgery, which makes people can't help but feel cold at first glance.

“......”

Evan looked at his left hand, his eyes flickered, his five fingers opened and clenched fiercely, and the air was suddenly squeezed and burst, making a roar like gunpowder igniting and detonating.

"Mixed martial arts have to be practiced, and the knowledge of mechanics has to be learned...... You can't be greedy for merit, everything must be gradual......"

He felt a little impetuous, so he sat directly on the floor and meditated. Calming the mind is like a lake of water, with a degree of relaxation between movement and stillness, which is faintly in line with the true meaning of mixed martial arts 'water'.

After meditating for a short time, the original impetuous mood gradually calmed down, and the mind entered a state of agility and serenity. The strength of the force is intentionally and unopinionated to focus on the whole body, from the heart to the epithelium. It's like some special and mysterious casting tool, transforming the body little by little, subtly making it more suitable for melee combat.

At the same time, his mind was also flooded by the peaceful flowing water, and all the annoying thoughts turned into surging undercurrents, which disappeared with the trend of the current. Not seeing it does not mean disappearing, on the contrary, in this state, Evan's mind cleared up a lot, and he began to think about the future again:

"The toxins in my body are probably out of nowhere. However, the bloodline of the Menes royal family cannot be replicated even by the Apostles, and it is not surprising that there is a poison in the royal family that can hide from the Federation's technology...... But no matter what, I can't compromise on this matter. Even if she dies of poison after killing her, she can't be controlled everywhere as before. ”

"Speaking of which, my progress during this period of time is indeed greater than I imagined. Eru Lomme must know this, and the worst is that even if I can become a mechanic, she is confident that she has the strength to suppress it. ”

"What's more, in the more than a year that I became the Inquisitor, how much did she communicate with the Hyperion Development Foundation? With that woman's intelligence, I'm afraid she wouldn't have thought of using the mechanic's skills to strengthen herself...... If I can do it, then she can do it too......"

Thinking of this, Ivan turned cold and gradually revealed a solemn look:

"My advantage is that I have a full range of knowledge within the Federation, and Eru Lomme has access to only the Hyperion Development Consortium...... After all, the high-tech products there are close to being scrapped, and naturally they cannot be connected to the Internet. In that case, it was the right choice of mixed martial arts in the first place, at least on this path, I have an advantage over her!"

He stood up and pressed the switch hidden under the metal plate on the wall, leaving the outward-facing layer of the wall facing outward. Walking to the bright floor-to-ceiling window, Evan raised his head and looked at the other side of the sky:

"I'm expecting you, are you expecting me?"

11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

The World of Light, Heblen.

Inside the court, the floor of the royal dining room was clean and dust-free, glittering in the moonlight, and the white curtains were swaying in the wind.

It was the Empress's dinner time, the dishes were all fruits and vegetables, and the waitresses were setting the tables and lighting the candles one by one. Elu Lomme sat on the bench by the window, watching the sun set and the moon rise, and behind her, the entire royal court was lit up like a sea of stars......

Renee came to the dining room with a plate and saw her sitting on a bench by the window, silently looking at the starry sky in the night, with a clear sea of stars reflected in her pupils.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Keane has sent me a bottle of red wine. ”

"Red wine?"

Eru Lomei looked back at the plate, saw the liquid in the glass bottle as red as blood, stood up, walked up to her gracefully, and picked up the crystal clear bottle:

"I've never seen a drink, let's taste it together. ”

"The subordinates don't dare. ”

"Sit down!"

Her tone was slightly accentuated, with a hint that could not be refused.

“......”

Renee didn't dare to disobey, so she had to put down her plate and sit down in the guest seat with her eyebrows lowered.

"The craftsmanship of this bottle alone can be considered a work of art in Menes. ”

While sighing at the exquisite craftsmanship of the bottle, Elu Luomei gently uncorked the bottle and immersed the red body into the crystal glass, and the red color spread out in this way, rendering the whole space.

She poured only half a glass, admiring it swaying in the soft candlelight, and then leaned forward and sniffed it gently, the faint fragrance and the ethereal color as elegant.

Elu Lomme placed the glass beside her, poured another one, and handed it to Rennie when it was full:

"This guy occasionally brings in a little bit of goodies, and you can try it too. ”

"Your Majesty is so charismatic that even the most vicious invaders will be succumbed to your beauty. While complimenting, the female adjutant raised her hands over her head and took the glass in a restrained manner.

"I just don't want to go far. ”

Elle Lomme sat beside Renée, gently shaking the pale rose-colored juice in the tall glass, and a wisp of mellow, fruity, and delicate fragrance was condensed into a unique aroma, which was refreshing to the nose. She took a sip, only to feel that her lips and teeth were fragrant, and it was more delicious than the most aged elixir in the palace.

"You're implying ...... Is it implied that His Majesty Evan has chosen the wrong path?" Reennie asked boldly, seeing that she was in a good mood at this time.

"Of course not, he chose the path that was best for him and I made the choice that was the wisest for me. ”

Eru Lomei picked up the wine glass and shook it gently, and a faint fragrance floated in it:

"At the same time, I'm correcting my mistakes, which I used to think would be easy to train a teenage boy. But Ivan's endurance was obviously beyond my expectations, and the end result was that he still regarded me as a flood beast. ”

"So you give him freedom? But it's also a complete loss of control. After the female adjutant raised her doubts, she also learned to take a sip of wine.

"I'm just removing the shackles I have put on him. ”

She took another sip, and then the sweet and sour fluid dissolved on the tip of her tongue, accompanied by a rich aroma lingering in her sense of smell, and said with a smile:

"When the time comes, as long as he can meet my expectations, I can give him another country. ”

"Another country?"

Renee was taken aback, and looked up to observe the empress's expression, realizing that it didn't look like a casual joke.

"Yes, another country, the land is in the western part of the empire, in the territory of the lizardmen. ”

Eru Lome Shi Ran walked to the window, held the cup, and watched the night be hazy, so that the wine and the stars twinkled together:

"Ever since he turned down the Dreadbeast hunt, I knew this child wouldn't be of my use...... Rather than killing my own siblings, I want him to open up another empire and see it all with my own eyes. ”

As she spoke, she stretched out her other hand, and her slender white fingers suddenly turned into a metallic form of mercury, trembling slightly and rapidly, making a distant sound.

"Just like me...... You're looking forward to meeting again, aren't you?"

The Empress of Menes looked at the starry sky and raised her glass and smiled.
