Chapter 139: Fighting

Crying and crying, Vivien fell asleep, and in her sleep she met her father and her brothers, who were still so kind, with a cigar in his hand, and were casually wiping his antique musket, while his brothers were talking and laughing at themselves...... When Vivien woke up from her sleep, tears were already in her eyes, and there was a knock at the door.

"Miss Vivian, my lord, please come to the main hall for a banquet, you need to put on formal clothes, today the family has a distinguished guest." The butler's voice rang out outside the door.

For some reason, Vivien found that the butler's voice had an emotion, and it seemed much more respectful than before.

Vivien opened the window and found that the outside world had gone dark, and she had spent the whole day in a groggy state.

"Don't go...... I don't eat...... All you need is bread and water, I don't want to owe you any more. Vivien felt hungry, but chose to refuse the temptation of the William family.

The butler outside the door said softly: "Miss Vivian, tonight is the old man's banquet, as an escort, you don't need to bear any debts, please clean up and go to the banquet hall quickly." ”

Wei Wei thought for a moment, and immediately refused: "Hmph! Aren't you going to sell me to anyone? Don't! ”

The housekeeper persuaded for a while, but to no avail, he could only leave in disgrace. But not long after, the butler came back and spoke again to persuade him.

"How many times have I told you! I'm not going, I'm not going! Vivien was so annoyed that she couldn't help but growl.

The butler outside the door whispered, "Miss Vivian, the lord has promised you that if you attend this banquet, he will consider forgiving half of your debts. ”

Half of the debt?!

Vivien remembered the astronomical number again, and suddenly her head was a little deprived of oxygen.

Half is half! Vivian gritted her teeth, what is a hero's shortness of breath, what is a penny that is difficult to defeat a hero, and finally Vivian couldn't help but speak: "You go and tell that damn old man, for the sake of money, I will attend." ”

……

William's Manor, such a small banquet is going on in the banquet hall.

The banquet was of a high profile, but only three people were seated, and Knock William was one of them.

There are two guests, divided into guest positions, and the three of them each occupy a side of the world, showing a horn situation, as for Harry William, the heir of the William family, he can only stand behind Old Nock and is not qualified to sit down.

The round table is filled with a wide variety of food, from deep-sea caviar to Irish veal, from Michelin-starred desserts to Bordeaux wine, Marseille fish soup, Danish roast chicken ...... Everything on the table.

"I heard that the trip to the Far East has been extraordinary, and has been highly praised by Mr. Del Basas, and the ranking of the two within the organization has been significantly improved, and the future is really limitless." Knock William said with a smile.

Old David, who was sitting on the side, took off the lenses and wiped them, and replied lightly: "I'm an old guy, I'm not far from death, what future is there." ”

James, who was sitting on the other side, responded with a smile: "It's just luck, I got the praise of the speaker, and I am very afraid." ”

When Nock heard James and old Davis's answers, it was clear in his heart, no wonder old Davis's status within the organization was not as good as James's, there was a reason for this, just by the level of this rhetoric, he knew that old Davis, the Dutchman, was in poor condition.

Nock asked again: "I heard that the technology of the smart terminal you brought back from Tibet can effectively restrain the destruction of the zombie virus in the human body, I wonder if the news is true?" ”

James said with a faint smile: "These things are already highly confidential within the organization, but since you are the backbone of the organization, it doesn't hurt to talk about it." This smart terminal technology can indeed restrain the instinct of the zombie virus, although it cannot eradicate the damage of the X virus to the human body, but if it can ensure the sobriety of the brain, even if the body is zombied, what does it matter? ”

Once upon a time, the James family and the William family were still in a state of rivalry, and no one could help anyone, but after the miraculous work in the Tibetan underground, the status of the James family within the organization has climbed to a very high position, which needs to be looked up to by the William family.

After extinguishing the idea of fighting with each other, Nock William took the initiative to show weakness, but in exchange for the friendship of the James family, the two talked to each other, and James did not hide his secrets.

"With this technology, the front-line soldiers no longer have to be executed immediately after being injured by zombies, which can greatly improve the morale of the soldiers." Knock William said.

James took a sip of red wine and continued: "Under the auspices of the Speaker, the biochemistry laboratory in Wales has been reopened. ”

Old Nock looked strange: "Why haven't I gotten any news about such a big thing?" ”

James replied: "This is secretly opened, and you may not know it yet, the Copenhagen lab in Denmark has fallen, and we have no choice but to restart the lab in Wales." ”

"What? This...... How can it be? The Copenhagen lab has fallen? Old Nock looked at James and Davis Sr. in disbelief.

Both of them nodded with dark faces: "That's right, it's already fallen, that was three weeks ago, and the organization blocked the news internally, so no one knows." ”

"The Copenhagen laboratory is in an environment of 200 meters underground, and when it was built, our family was commissioned by the Speaker of Oak to build it, and it was built by extraordinary means, and there is no possibility for zombies to find the laboratory!" Old Nock still didn't believe it.

Twelve years ago, on the eve of his disappearance, Daddy Oak had foreseen a possible deterioration of the situation in the future, and ordered his family to build an underground biochemical laboratory in Copenhagen. The biochemical project carried out in that laboratory may be the greatest hope and the last hope for human conceiving, but I didn't expect that the laboratory actually fell three weeks ago!

"How is this possible?" Old Nock muttered to himself.

Old Davis finally finished wiping his glasses, and then said: "The zombies have become extremely smart now, and those guys actually started digging along the ventilation duct, digging dozens of meters into the upper floor of the laboratory base, and then entering the laboratory through the vents. All the defenses on the surface of Copenhagen have become ornaments. ”

Old Nock's face turned pale, and he shouted, "The vent is buried in the mountain, how can they find a location!" That section of the mountain was more than 50 meters thick, how could they possibly dig through the mountain to find a vent? ”

Old Davis replied: "Here's the problem, if it's not the zombies but the humans who did all this, the organization will have to consider the loyalty of your Knock William, but fortunately, everything has been determined, everything is a zombie, I believe your family has not betrayed enough to collude with zombies." ”

Old Davis's words were unkind, and suddenly made Nock William break out in a cold sweat.

"How is this possible, how can I collude with zombies, what are you kidding?!" Knock William grabbed the napkin on the table and wiped the sweat violently.

James smiled lightly: "Old Nock, don't worry, the organization's trust in you is still the same, after all, your four sons have all given their lives for the organization, and it is impossible for the organization to doubt your loyalty." ”

Hearing James's words, Nock William finally settled down and realized his gaffe, and Old Nock asked, "By the way, how did the zombies know the location of the vents?" ”

Speaking of this, James, who has always been gentle and elegant, also showed a serious expression: "We have carefully studied and discussed this matter, and then we have come to a sensational fact, perhaps, some zombies have retained the memories of their lives. ”

Shocked and puzzled, Knock William continued: "Perhaps there are some knowers among the zombies who have been to blame for this catastrophe after their deaths. ”

Knock William's face then changed again, and he stammered a little: "What if...... Counting the dead, there are too many people who know about the existence of the Copenhagen lab...... If according to your words, didn't all the materials in this laboratory fall into the hands of zombies? ”

James nodded, his face heavy.

"Oh my God! That's 100,000 K*ron gene warriors who are about to mature! Nock William shouted.

James shrugged his shoulders: "If there are more lice, it is not itchy, and 100,000 more zombies are not a big deal." ”

"But what an army of 100,000 soldiers is for us!" Knock William said.

James replied: "There is nothing to be done, the laboratory has been lost, and the laboratory in Wales can only be restarted, but the laboratory was closed to ensure the safety of the British mainland, and after many years, the equipment of the laboratory has been seriously damaged...... Of course, the most distressing thing is the scientific research personnel in the industry and the base, and those talents are the precious assets of mankind. ”

Davis Sr. replied, "Fortunately, we have found some talent from all over the world this time, and we may be able to put it to some use." ”

The three of them sighed silently, and finally Nock William spoke: "It takes at least five years for the Croon warriors to grow from embryonic state to maturity, and the conditions of the Welsh laboratory are outdated, and the scientific research strength is also very weak, I am afraid that this backhand that our organization has worked hard for many years has become a fantasy." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent again.

At this time, the butler knocked on the door, and it turned out that Vivian was late.

Vivien always thought that this banquet would be invited by William Nock, a fierce general like Lawrence or a rising star of some big family, but when she walked into the banquet hall, she found that the two guests seated were actually two old men.

Isn't it damn that Knock William is going to sell himself to one of these old men? The more I think about it, the more uncomfortable it is in Weiwei's peace of mind.

But soon Vivien's expression became strange.

These two old men, Vivian doesn't know too much about old Davis, but old James really knows better, his son James Jr. has always been his potential suitor, can it be ...... Vivien had a lot of speculation in her mind.

"My Vivienne is here, come in and sit down." Knock William smiled and shouted at Vivien, as always the spring breeze was warm, and everyone thought the old man was too amiable.

However, Vivien remembered the sky-high bill, and she had already seen through Old Nock's hypocrisy.

So Vivien was hesitant to sit down at the banquet table.

"What are you doing stupidly? Whore! Harry William, who had been unable to interject behind his father, finally found an opportune moment to assert his status, so he yelled at Vivien in a low voice.

"Rebel, where is your chance to speak here? Get the hell out of here! Knock William instantly erupted and ordered his son to be evicted.

"Father......" Harry William was a little puzzled.

"Get out." Old Nock said solemnly.

Harry William's weasel-like face couldn't hold back, so he slammed the door and left the banquet hall.

Nock turned back to James and Davis and said, "The tutoring is not strict, which makes the two of them laugh." ”

Vivien was surprised, and couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Vivien, please be seated." At this time, Davis Sr. made a sound.

Although he was only a guest, James' position in the organization already qualified him to call the shots for his host.

Wei Wei sat in the banquet with some trepidation, facing the three old men, she was a little overwhelmed. However, the three of them continued to talk about topics that had nothing to do with her, so Vivien focused on the food at the banquet table.

The abundance of food on the banquet table today is definitely not a small burden for the James family, and in the current situation, the situation of the wealthy family is not good.

"Vivien, you're welcome, just eat and drink." Old Davis looked at Vivian kindly, which made Vivian feel even more abnormal, isn't this old man a little noisy?

Compared to Davis Sr., James was more direct, and even stood up to personally deliver food to Vivien.

"This caviar is rich in nutrients, just right for you young people who grow up, eat more." James said kindly.

The two old men had some abnormal enthusiasm, which immediately flattered Vivien. I've lived in England for several years, and it's been a long time since I've experienced this feeling of being surrounded by stars.

Not only was Vivien confused, but even Knock William felt a little unusual.

It stands to reason that these two old guys who are in the limelight in the organization don't need to be so enthusiastic about a little girl! The scheming old Nock sensed something else.

However, James and old Davis are also human spirits, and after some condolences, they don't spend much more time on Vivian, both of whom know that the set almost needs to be relaxed, otherwise it will give people a bad feeling.

Later, the three of them chatted again, and most of the topics they talked about were related to the organization, but there were still a few words about Vivian, whether intentional or not.

"Miss Vivien, I heard that you participated in the organization's infiltration mission in the Far East a few years ago?" James asked.

Vivien nodded as she ate her sandwich.

"Who were you with?" James asked again.

"Brian, Ram Kai, Eduardo." Vivien casually said the names of a few people.

Then, James and Davis Sr. nodded tacitly and moved on to something else.

After dinner, Vivien retired at the behest of Old Nock, and the three scheming fellows got together again to chat.

"This girl, I'm going to take it." James spoke.

Old Nock lit a cigar, puffed lightly, blew out a smoke ring, and asked, "What made you so interested in her?" Lord James. ”

James replied with a slight hesitation: "This girl has an old relationship with a friend of mine, and I am entrusted with taking care of her. ”

Old Nock laughed, "This tone sounds so familiar, let me think about it, it seems that I have an old relationship with Vivien's father, and I am entrusted by her father to take care of her." ”

James said this to Old Nock, and immediately replied: "William, it's not that I'm too talkative, I know all the ideas you have about Vivian, don't pretend anymore, you give her to Lawrence to win Lawrence's favor, it's better to be a favor and give Vivian to me." ”

"I don't understand why you're so interested in Vivian, are you your son, I don't see it, old James, I know you too well, and you're also a person who doesn't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles." Old Nock was still puzzled.

James looked at Old Nock and said, "Why don't you believe me when I speak, of course I am entrusted to pay so much attention to Vivien." ”

"Who deserves such caution that you would even beg me?" Old Nock said in a deep tone: "You also know that in order to gain the favor and support of the powerful general of the Coast Guard, it is worth paying some price. ”

James shook his head: "No, no, no, it's not that I beg you, but everyone takes what they need." ”

"To each his own?" Knock William was a little confused.

James spoke: "Yes, you gave Vivian to Lawrence, just to use Lauren's power, if you give Vivian to me, I can help you get the power you want." ”

"Huh?!" Knock William's eyes lit up.

"Next month there will be elections for several vice-speakers, and I, under the designation of Mr. Del Basas, will be given the position of vice-speaker. In view of the grave situation at present, Mr. Del Basas will authorize me to form a new Coast Guard Force, and you, Mr. Nock William, are you interested in taking on the task of organizing it? James saw that the time had come, and immediately threw the fruit.

This time, Nock William could no longer sit still.

A powerful family like himself can't say much on the British Isle, but there are still some, each family has its own grievances, and many powerful families have now disappeared, and in the troubled times, only holding force is the most important thing!

Although they are also dependent on others, they have an army in their hands, and their chips are different!

Countless thoughts flashed through Nock William's head, but in the end he still hesitated: "Mr. James, I have to admit that your words are very tempting to me, and I am even really tempted, but you also know that I have promised Mr. Lawrence that I will give Miss Vivien to him in exchange for his friendship...... I'm embarrassed. ”

ps: I made a mistake in the name of the character yesterday, and now it has been revised, please forgive me.
