Chapter 311: News from the City of Lalaye
"Today's training plan is still the same......
A private residence on the edge of Fiera Milano.
The jaw-dropping square-like gardens, the large fountain is always shrouded in a cosy tranquil atmosphere, and the green lawn is manicured like a velvet carpet. The benches in the courtyard are all shining, and the only mansion is as luxurious as the White House.
This mansion is one of the important strongholds of the [Silver Banner], which is specially used to entertain VIPs or hold a meeting of a small number of cadres.
Thanks to someone, Lily was given the right to use the courtyard.
"The difference between the real world and the imaginary world is very big. In the case of not being able to effectively improve the body's essence, you can only focus on skills for the time being. Of course, it's not a skill to defeat the enemy, but a skill to master your own power. β
"Yes!"
Lily's words rang in my ears. The soreness in her arms was almost maddening, but Asukina still took her training plan seriously.
The thin white sportswear was already wet with sweat, and the maroon silk was sticking to the skin, making the neck and forehead very uncomfortable. Although there is also a strong urge to 'simply cut it short', due to the concerns of some adolescent girls, they can only tie their heads into a ponytail during training, which can be more comfortable.
"Give."
A bottle of water was handed in front of him.
Asuina took a deep breath, her hands still shaking.
No way, the sheer number of swings of the sword is nothing, but what Lily is asking for is 'swinging the sword to smash the stones she throws'.
This is not only a test of the person's dynamic vision. It's more of a test of judgment.
A series of factors such as when to swing the sword, how much force to use, how fast to measure, etc., have to be thought out in less than a second.
It was all instinct and feeling.
"Thank you."
Asuna thanked her, opened the cap, and took a sip.
As long as she replenishes the water that has passed during the training process, she can feel the gradual heat, unusual heat, like staying in the sauna. This is a technique that uses magic to activate and regenerate, mainly used to treat muscle damage, and at the same time to extract more magic power.
"I'm really not fit to be a teacher."
Lily said suddenly with annoyance.
"Huh? No, you've helped me a lot. β
What a blessing it was to have the guidance of Lily, a true swordsmanβAsukina knew it all too well. So she hurriedly comforted.
"Your sword sense is good. If the master had done it himself, the effect would have been a thousand times better than mine. First of all, this is not flattery, but a conclusion drawn from facts. Master has always had a lot of ideas. Why didn't Asukina ask him? Lily asked, puzzled. In her eyes. Ling Yi reappeared like a magician of the god generation. The unpredictable mind and all the means are really very apt for the word 'magician'.
Oh yes, and I'm good at playing with language.
Maybe it will be teased. But his abilities are truly trustworthy.
ββ
Asukina was silent for some reason.
The expression looked very tangled, like a clear desire to buy something but was reluctant to pay for it.
"Is there anything hard to say?"
"Just a little embarrassed."
ββ
In the face of Lily's suspicious gaze, Asuna finally confessed and forgiving.
"That guy seems to want to send me to the training facility of the forces that belong to this mansion."
Her voice was worried.
"Has the master already decided?"
"I don't know."
"With all due respect, I don't find it difficult to accept."
"That's right."
"So"
Just when Lily wanted to ask, 'What are you hesitating about?'.
Footsteps could be heard near the foyer of the mansion.
"Ah, are you doing morning exercises?"
The person who came was a young man in a casual shirt and jeans.
"Master, you're awake, but it's not morning."
Lily reveals the identity of the visitor.
"You don't need to worry about that kind of detail, but tomorrow's na-"
As he spoke, Ling Yi set his eyes on the sportswear girl who was quite apprehensive.
"We have a verbal agreement, so I'd like to ask for your opinion. Originally, out of the consideration of 'laying a good foundation first', I planned to borrow a few tutors from [Silver Banner] to teach you all aspects of knowledge. But if you think about it, why do you have to count on others with Lily here, if you don't mind, from today onwards, Lily will teach you swordsmanship, and I will teach you the knowledge of the Demon Dao. β
"Wait, you said you came to teach me magic?"
The surprise came so suddenly that Assuna even suspected that she had misheard.
"What are you surprised about?"
"Won't that delay your time?"
Asukina said hesitantly.
"I don't think anyone thinks it's a waste of time to be with a lover."
Because Ling Yi's attitude was too natural, Tomorrow Nai didn't react at all.
"I see? Lovers?! β
Asukina nodded, and it took about three or four seconds before she suddenly reacted.
"Yes, for the sake of convenience, you are neither a knight nor a magician, and if you think about it, only 'lovers' are more suitable, so that those guys in the [Silver Banner] will also take more care of 'Ling Yi's lover'."
"That's what happened."
It wasn't what I thought.
A strong sense of shame hit her heart, and Ashina's cheeks became redder.
As if to cover up his gaffes.
"I'll go take a shower first!"
******************
"It's impossible! Eighty percent equity, are you robbing? β
As soon as she walked to the door of the tea hall, Assuna heard the familiar scolding.
When I went in, I saw that it was not surprising. The big brown man of Russian nationality put aside his usual calm and composed, and was yelling at the black young man on the sand opposite to express his dissatisfaction.
"Where's Lily?" Seeing Tomorrow Nai enter the door, Ling Yi asked suspiciously.
Completely ignoring O'Grandover's displeasure.
"She said she was going to walk around the neighborhood, and she had been busy some time ago, and she didn't have time to relax - besides, Lily is a girl, so don't let her do anything dangerous."
"It depends."
To this ambiguous answer, Assuna glared at Ling Yi and then sat down next to him.
She had just taken a shower and had a nice aroma on her body.
Ling Yi first took a sip as if enjoying it, and then grabbed her shoulder with his hand.
It's like the eldest young master from somewhere.
βοΌβ
Tomorrow Nai was taken aback at first, remembering what Ling Yi had said. Forced to calm down.
That's right. They are now in a romantic relationship.
At least externally.
"Hey, are you listening to me?"
Feeling the cold gaze, Ling Yi said solemnly:
"Of course, as a partner. I've always had the least respect. β
"A guy who wants 80 percent of the equity when he opens his mouth. It's a shame that you can say that. β
Ogrand scoffed.
"From a businessman's point of view. Isn't that a matter of course? β
"Don't take greed so seriously!"
"Okay, okay, I'll lower my requirements a little bit."
Ling Yi looked like he really couldn't help you.
"I want 50 percent of the equity of all companies involved in the GGO program."
"I must call you a vampire solemnly. I've never seen a bastard like you. Do you only have money in your head? Damn, what we should be concerned about now is not how much money we can make, but whether we can break through the economic blockade of the government's [silver flag]. Even if you are given more equity, you won't be able to make a penny now! β
"Make no mistake, I'm just asking for what I deserve. I provide all the GGO technology, and honestly, I can find other partners without you, and you just need my help. I should think clearly about who should lower my profile. β
"Don't be too arrogant, the [Silver Banner] has helped you a lot. Otherwise, you would have been arrested by the government by now. β
"Oh? Who said they would send me to prison for the sake of association? I have a bad memory, can you sue me? In a word, yes or no, it's up to you. β
"Are you serious?"
O'Gruff asked coldly.
"I can remind you that sometimes equity is just a useless piece of waste paper, and too much concern will equate your value with that piece of paper."
"Then why do you hold on to it?"
Ling Yi asked with a smile.
Unexpectedly, O'Gruff opened his mouth but didn't make a sound.
In the final analysis, it is a well-known fact that enterprises exist in the form of a group.
Therefore, no matter how powerful the magician is, he still has to honestly follow the regular channels.
The one who holds the most equity can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes.
"You"
O'Grandford just said a word about you.
Suddenly, the phone in my pocket rang.
When I took it out, it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello, I'm Villeret. Lorianne. β
There was a beautiful but calm female voice on the other end of the phone, just listening to the voice, I am afraid that she is only twenty years old. Such a little girl would know her mobile phone number, and O'Gruff was a little puzzled.
Wait, Lorien?
Something suddenly came to mind, and O'Grandf's attitude became extremely cautious.
"It turns out that he is the first heir in line to the throne of the Principality of Wallachia, what is the matter?"
"I understand that you are busy with official business, and I apologize for that. However, there is one question that I have to ask you for, and I hope to get a satisfactory answer. β
"Princess, you can ask."
"I wonder if you know a young man named Ling Yi. He is about 18 years old and is a Chinese student. β
ββ
O'Gruff stared wordlessly at the young man in front of him who was drinking tea very calmly, and was silent for a while and said:
"I'm sorry. I haven't seen the man the princess is talking about. β
"Really? Then don't bother, if you get the slightest clue from that person, please let me know, I appreciate it. β
"The princess is polite, it's a trivial matter."
Because the one the princess was looking for was sitting in front of him.
After hanging up the phone, O'Gruff took a deep breath and said solemnly:
"Let's continue to negotiate. I just said that I would give you 50% of the shares, but after careful consideration, I decided to agree. But I have one request, I must not let the Vlad family no, not let the woman in the name of Lolian interfere! β
*******************
The night breeze blowing. On top of a 100-meter-high building. Sweet and cold.
This is located on the top of a building in the middle of the city, which is neither a large entertainment department store nor a luxury hotel, but a simple commercial building. So take it for granted. A platform at the vertex. There won't be any recreational landscapes.
You don't need any special permits, just walk up the stairs to the top of the building and open the slightly old iron door. You can come to the desolate platform, but at this moment, which is far past normal working hours, no one will normally be there.
But there are exceptions
On the roof of the building, where no one was there, there was a lonely cold wind blowing without temperature, and the girl's dark over-the-shoulder black silk danced wildly with the strong wind from above, but the girl did not have the slightest intention of combing it by hand, but just let her eyebrows-level Zeli bangs be disrupted by the wind.
The girl's face was silent, but the emotion that was too calm was too lonely on her iconic face.
"Miss, it's almost time to go back."
"But I haven't found him yet."
Vill said without looking back.
ββ
Miss Blade was silent, she was just a guard, and she didn't know much information.
Especially about the man mentioned by the eldest lady.
At first, the mission went smoothly, but since the appearance of [Fuxing Darkness], things have taken an irreversible turn. Who would have thought that an ordinary student would be involved in the Milanese association and attempt to assassinate the senior generals of the Chinese military.
And then - a complete loss of news.
His life and death are unknown.
The research institute of the man's parents, a former government-sent scientist, was also attacked by unknown persons, and it is said that the area around the institute was flattened by means of suspected small-yield nuclear weapons.
The two scientists were taken captive.
Although a large number of search units were sent afterwards.
However, it was the result of the annihilation of the entire army.
"The Llalaye Document, the government has spent a lot of effort to decipher the contents. Now that cracked version is in the hands of Ling Yi's parents, finding Ling Yi is equivalent to grasping the initiative. There are no parents who don't care about their children, although it's a bit against humanity, but I can't care about that much. Villetel muttered to herself.
"Contrary to the nature of magic books such as "Solomon's Little Key" and "Jade Record", the "L'alayh Document" only records a legend about a certain zΓ i, what is so attractive about it?" Miss Blade asked, puzzled.
"Have you heard of Beowulf?"
"Of course, the legendary heroes of Scandinavia are not much worse in terms of fame than Paladin, Siegfried and the like."
"Then you must know his most famous deeds. That's right, slay three monsters, giants, sea monsters, and dragons. In the epic poem "Beowulf", his heroic battles are recounted, and three monsters are also described at considerable length. They live deep in the mountains, under the sea, and in caves, don't you think these places are great places to explore? β
"What does the eldest lady mean is that the deep-sea city of Lalaye in the "Lalaye Document" really exists?"
Violet shook her head.
The answer has long since emerged. The ruins of the Italian expedition ten years ago were not alien civilizations at all, but were of the same origin as the city of Lalaie. β
In other words, if you are not satisfied with the present, do you want to continue to dig other ruins after tasting the sweetness?
