Chapter 308: Bribery and Cooperation
Regardless of whether what An Jie said is the truth or not.
In short, in Sheila's opinion, this Golden Amber City is now stormy, and it is likely to become a battlefield at any time.
For the sake of the safety of the two of them, it would be better to leave here and return to the monastery as soon as possible.
Of course, from an objective point of view, there is no problem with this kind of thinking and practice of Schilla.
But of course, An Jie and Youmi couldn't accept the fact that they had left in disgrace.
"We can't just leave." An Jie shook his head and said seriously, "At least before taking revenge and participating in the god sacrifice martial arts."
"Revenge? What revenge?"
"There was a kidnapping at the monastery half a year ago, I wonder if Lady Sheila has heard of it."
"Kidnapping...... Is it the Sixth Reich involved?"
The abduction of the monastery was the first official contact between the Night's Watch and the Sixth Reich, and Sheila was naturally aware of it.
I heard that the Sixth Reich hired some men at that time and successfully kidnapped the two sealers from the monastery.
But at this time, Anjie mentioned that incident again, what was it for?
In front of Sheila, An Jie's face was not red and her heart was not beating, and she said, "At that time, in addition to the people of the Sixth Empire, there was also a collaborative organization that kidnapped us, and that was the Harpy Banshee entrenched here."
"What...... What? And that kind of thing?"
Sheila was visibly taken aback when she heard this, as this kind of thing was not mentioned at all in the official report.
As a native of this side of the desert, Sheila certainly knew about the Harpy.
But she only knew that this organization was a new assassin force that had emerged over the years, but she didn't know that it had something to do with the Sixth Reich.
"Yes, there was a group of assassins who infiltrated the vicinity of the monastery at that time, and although I finally solved it, it still almost caused a huge number of casualties, and I am sure that the Harpy people did it."
The situation that An Jie said actually happened, and at that time, the people behind Hannibal did hire a group of assassins to infiltrate the monastery, and they were also killed by An Jie and Yumi.
It's just that those assassins actually have nothing to do with the "Harpy", and An Jie just threw the pot on the heads of those people.
"I see." Hearing this, Sheila frowned: "So in addition to participating in the Divine Sacrifice Martial Arts Exercise, you also want to take revenge with your own hands? Nonsense, it's nonsense."
"Oh? Ms. Sheila, can you tell us what we're messing around?"
"With the strength of the two of you, how can it be...... Uh."
Originally, Sheila wanted to say, "How can you two shake such a big organization with the strength of the two of you?"
Unexpectedly, he stopped in the middle of his sentence and looked the two sealers up and down.
Wait, if you think about it, the strength of these two little guys seems to be much stronger than expected...... No, it's a lot stronger.
In the past, although Sheila knew that Yumi was a genius with outstanding talent among the royal bloodline of this generation.
But now Yumi's feeling to her is not just a young genius, but a strong man who is awe-inspiring.
In addition, the violent woman next to her, who likes to smash people's jaws with her fists, can still find her traces in the night, which makes Sheila suddenly reflect how strong the strength of the two is.
Although I don't know why these two sealers have become so strong, judging from their current strength, it seems that it is really impossible to deal with a "Harpy".
Seeing that Xila stopped in the middle of speaking, An Jie also puffed up her chest and smiled, "How is it? Noticed? We're far more powerful than you think, just a 'Harpy', we don't take them seriously."
"If it's just 'Harpy, maybe your self-confidence makes some sense, but now' the Sixth Empire&Q
uot; It's already involved, and it's not that simple."
Sheila looked at the direction she had just scouted and advised, "I heard that the cadres of the Sixth Empire have come to Golden Amber City, and they seem to be secretly planning something, this is not as simple as a small fight."
"Hehe, we really can't deal with the cadres of the Sixth Reich, but aren't you still there? You are responsible for dealing with the cadres, and the rest of the miscellaneous fish will be left to us to solve, which is mutually beneficial, how about it?"
"Nonsense." Sheila glared at An Jie and said sharply, "You don't think you can set foot on a battlefield of this level, do you? This is not a child's playhouse, and it can be ....... at any time."
Sheila wanted to say that "someone could die at any time," but she immediately stopped.
Because just as she was halfway through her words, the eyes of the young woman in front of her changed.
Although An Jie's expression didn't change much, she couldn't even see the slightest sign of twisting and twitching in her facial muscles.
But the pair of eyes that were still clear and crystal just now suddenly flashed with a strong killing intent, and they seemed to turn into two bottomless black pools that could wring all living beings into blood foam and shatter!
This....... This is.......
Sheila, who had experienced it herself, naturally knew that this was not the eyes of a normal person, but the eyes of a strong man who had stepped into countless Shura blood seas like himself and rushed out of the corpse mountain.
The look in his eyes seemed to shout angrily at Xila, "Don't underestimate me, I'm not a child, and I'm not a house."
At the same time, An Jie, who was standing a few meters away, suddenly took a step forward.
At that moment, the ground shook violently, as if the entire surrounding sand had produced a violent ***.
With the "Eye of Horus", Sheila could even clearly see a circle of circular ripples, with An Jie's foothold as the core, quickly swinging towards the surrounding sea of sand, rolling up a wave of flying sand and rocks within a radius of several hundred meters.
Almost the next moment, the "executioner" was greeted with a fist in the face!
An Jie's fist looks small, pink, and gives people a cute look.
But at the moment of this punch, Sheila heard a sharp and violent explosion in the air, which was so loud that it almost tore the eardrums, which showed how powerful this punch was.
If such an exaggerated punch were to hit a human, the skull would immediately burst open like an egg.
Blood and brains splashed around, and countless remnants of flesh and bones were rolled up in the fist wind blowing directly into the sky, as if a bloody storm had fallen here, giving people a terrifying power as if they were in the polar region of purgatory.
Under the blow, there is no corpse, this is the impression given by An Jie's fist, and this is also her response to Sheila, who underestimated herself.
Of course, the punch didn't land on Sheila's face, and in fact it didn't hit her in the face.
An Jie just threw an empty punch in her direction, nothing more, and there was no real intention to do it.
And with Shira's demigod-level transcendent strength, if she wanted to dodge, with Anjie's current strength it wasn't enough to hit her.
But this punch has fully demonstrated his attitude, as well as his strength and rich combat experience.
"Do you think we're flowers in a greenhouse, children who haven't been through the killing battlefield?"
After withdrawing her fist, An Jie looked straight at the power of the night watchman and said in a proud tone.
An Jie was originally the kind of combat fighter who particularly liked actual combat, and before he went to the monastery, he smashed other people's jaws with his fists every day in the Holy Capital.
Later, she was fed by Jiang Ash's holy energy cuisine for so long, and she got the inheritance of the "Heavenly Wrath Lord", and finally stayed in a ghost place like the Forbidden Land outside the realm for three full months, and now she can't be underestimated by others.
Especially during those three months of cultivation, An Jie was fighting with all kinds of monsters almost every day.
Fighting monsters is not like fighting with humans, as long as you start to do it, it will inevitably be a life and death
, there is no advance or retreat.
After fighting like this for three months and killing thousands of monsters with his own hands, An Jie's murderous nature has already climbed to a level that is absolutely unimaginable.
When he felt that fierce killing intent, even Sheila had to take a deep breath and said with a wry smile:
"Well, you convinced me....... Next, you can get rid of the Harpy here, and then go back to the monastery after participating in the god sacrifice and martial arts, right?"
"Phew, hahahaha." An Jie laughed loudly when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Ms. Sheila is still quite reasonable, much better than our ancestor."
Sheila pretended not to understand whether An Jie was complaining about the "Mahatma", but continued to admonish, "But in Golden Amber City, you two have to listen to my orders, if you really encounter any danger, you still have to evacuate according to my request, understand?"
"Of course, if even you can't save our situation, why don't we evacuate and stay here and die? We're not stupid."
"Yes, Anjie can run faster, much sharper than me."
"Hey! Youmi, you squatted here silently for a long time, and the first thing you said was to backstab me! Let's find a fight!"
Seeing An Jie's puff of anger and grabbing Yumi and trying to perform a "beautiful head massage" with her fists on both sides of her temples, Shira couldn't help but laugh a little.
This kind of atmosphere is really something I haven't experienced for a long time, and it's really nostalgic to play with good sisters.
Sheila didn't know how many years ago, and naturally there were sisters or friends with whom she had fun, had fun, and shared with her.
It's just that these sisters and friends have basically lost contact with each other for a long time, and they have long been alone and alone until now.
Although the path of an assassin is originally a lonely one, it is inevitable that people will want to connect with others.
So after watching the two of them fight for a while, Shira said to them, "Okay, let's go back, it's not too early, go back and rest and rest, and come back tomorrow morning to discuss dealing with the Sixth Empire and the Harpy."
"Go back, right? Where are you going?"
"Of course I'm going back to my house, since I have to watch you, I can't set up a tent in the park like you, it's too cold."
Although Sheila is not the kind of person who is greedy for enjoyment, she is also a high-ranking night watchman, so naturally she can't sleep in the open air in the park.
As soon as she heard that there was a place to live, An Jie immediately breathed a sigh of relief, after all, she had slept enough in the open-air park.
Even this guy smiled knowingly:
"Anyway, you have a cook over there, the food sold outside this place is not to my liking, if only there was something serious to eat."
It's not that Anjie is really that picky, the main thing is that the diet in the desert area is really too rough, and the most often eaten is all kinds of beans and paste.
As soon as she walked into the restaurant and saw the colorful paste inside, An Jie suddenly lost her appetite, and she hadn't had a good meal in the past two days.
Seeing her greedy look, Sheila also quipped, "If you want to eat something delicious so much, wouldn't it be good to go back to the monastery and let Jiang Ember make it for you, his craftsmanship is first-class."
Speaking of which, Sheila couldn't help but think of the "mimic egg fried rice" made by the chef at the luncheon before.
Even Shira, who had already tasted all the delicacies in the world, gave a very high evaluation of that dish, or Jiang Ash.
It is precisely because of this that the envious emotion in her tone was unconsciously revealed.
After keenly perceiving this, An Jie couldn't help but cover her mouth and smiled:
"Yo Ho Ho, Ms. Shira seems to have a high opinion of my head chef?"
"This ...... It's just telling the truth."
"Then why don't we go back this time, and when we go back this time, we will invite Lady Shira to our convent as a guest, and we will take care of you by eating whatever you want when the time comes."
How's that?"
On the four words "the grace of care", An Jie obviously put some accents. Look at the book
As long as you're not an idiot, you should be able to understand what she means...... To put it bluntly, it is bribery.
It was indeed wrong for me and Yumi to escape from the monastery this time.
But for the sake of us being able to help and invite you to dinner, please don't report it to the top.
Would such a naked and naïve bribery work for Sheila? How can it be.
For a moment, Sheila wanted to say, "Do you think I'm that Greene?" This trick didn't work for me."
Who knew that when the words came to their mouths, they really didn't say anything.
After all...... Sheila really wanted to try Ginger Ember again.
If it's just such a small thing...... Forget it, now that the enemy of the Sixth Empire is present, let's not care about these little things.
I secretly made an excuse in my heart and fooled this matter for the time being.
Sheila took the two of them to pack up and returned to their temporary residence in Golden Amber City.
For An Jie, tonight's chance encounter was definitely an unexpected gain, although there was also an element of surprise and fright.
Under the protection of Sheila, the two of them can finally prepare for the god sacrifice martial arts competition the day after tomorrow with peace of mind, without worrying about the sudden appearance of some cattle to destroy them.
As a result, the two days passed quickly, and Jinhu City also ushered in the most lively day in recent years.
