"Before the attack on Clear Sky City, supplies were very tight, let alone after the attack. And let me tell you this, not only the food outside the city is tight, but also the inside of the Clear Sky City, the entire eight major cities of the Red League are nervous, and even those new nobles are nervous. ”

"How so? Didn't you have food reserves before? ”

"Yes, but most of them are in the 8th arrondissement. Don't look at the Eighth District now, it seems to be fine, in fact, it's not entirely good at all. ”

"Since District 8 is so important, why didn't the Red Alliance send more people when something happened in the first place?"

"Why didn't I send it, but all those who could be sent were sent. It's just that the focus of the Red Alliance is still on the development of other worlds, otherwise would your strength be able to grow so fast now? Can there be so many things for sale in the mall? ”

The City Lord of Bai Shao directly discussed it with Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was really the truth.

Although the Red Alliance has not done anything on the surface, it has been constantly obtaining resources from other worlds. Therefore, the strength of all people is also improving every day.

If he were allowed to deal with the affairs of the Eighth District now, he would not be so difficult at all.

"Lord of the City, in that case, can you lower the price of food outside? I don't ask for much, just maintain the market price set by the Red League! I didn't know that the gang of profiteers had inflated the price to an outrageous level. ”

Shen Qiu said with a deep groan.

"Shen Qiu, you heard from your uncle, if you brought it up before the attack on Clear Sky City, maybe it would be useful for me to give an order, but even if I give an order now, they won't listen to it, they will only disobey it."

"Why? Isn't that also your jurisdiction?"

"Nominally yes, but not really. Now there are four earthly snakes entrenched outside the Clear Sky City, and these four snake heads used to be afraid of me and didn't dare to mess around. But now that my Tianqing Legion has been injured, they naturally don't take me seriously, there is a good saying, a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. ”

When the city lord of Bai Shao said this, he couldn't help but shake his head, with a very helpless expression.

"Are they so arrogant?"

Shen Qiu's brows furrowed slightly.

"That's not it, let me tell you, although the price of food has skyrocketed now, the Red League is not completely ignorant, and there are also a large amount of relief food that has been sent down to ensure the minimum survival outside. The reason why the situation is so bad out there now is that nine times out of ten it is these people's doing, you must know that I have not withheld any relief food. ”

The city lord of Bai Shao said very sadly.

Bai Lanxin next to her saw that her father was chatting with Shen Qiu endlessly, and she hadn't drunk much of this wine, so she spoke.

"Don't talk about it, Shen Qiu, let's have a drink."

"You drink first, I'll talk to my uncle."

Shen Qiu was chatting with the city lord of Bai Shao about speculation, how could he be in any mood to drink.

"That's it, while you go, didn't you see that I was talking to Shen Qiu and was speculating?"

The city lord of Bai Shao waved his hand impatiently at Bai Lanxin.

Bai Lanxin was speechless for a while, her father was simply here to make trouble, not only could not help much, but added to the chaos.

Thinking of this, a gleam flashed in her eyes, since this is the case, she is not welcome, and even her father is down.

So Bai Lanxin raised her glass.

"Let's eat and talk together and have a toast."

More than two hours later.

Shen Qiu's stomach was a little uncomfortable when he drank, and his head was a little dizzy, this Bai Lanxin was really good at drinking.

But fortunately, with the evolution of genes, his physique has now strengthened, so the amount of alcohol has skyrocketed, but he is not completely drunk.

He stood up and said.

"I'll go to the bathroom."

"Don't run."

Sitting next to Shen Qiu, Bai Lanxin grabbed Shen Qiu's arm, and said with a little drunken in her eyes.

"Don't worry."

Shen Qiu couldn't guarantee with a smile.

At this time, the city lord of Bai Shao got up and said enthusiastically.

"I just want to go to the toilet too, and we're together."

"Uh, okay."

Shen Qiu couldn't say anything when he saw that the city lord of Bai Shao was so enthusiastic, so he walked towards the toilet with him.

At this time, Bai Lanxin, who was drunk and hazy, squinted her eyes and saw Shen Qiu and Bai Shao leaving, and immediately took out the sleeping powder from her body and unscrewed it, and hurriedly poured Shen Qiu's wine glass and kept chattering.

"I'm really convinced, how did this guy become so drinkable?"

In order to prevent the effect of the medicine from being insufficient, Bai Lanxin did not forget to pour more into it, which was colorless and odorless anyway.

After pouring it, Bai Lanxin stretched out her index finger and stirred it in the wine glass, then put it in her mouth and shook it for a while.

Let's chirp~

"yes, that's it."

Bai Lanxin, who was a little drunk, said to herself with satisfaction.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Bai Lanxin was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, and hurriedly wanted to clasp her throat and spit out the swallowed spit.

As a result, my eyes went black, and I felt like the world was spinning for a while, and I sat on the chair with my butt and finally lay on the table.

Not long after, the City Lord of Bai Shao and Shen Qiu walked back with a smile and a smile.

"Mr. Shen Qiu, let me tell you, from the moment you stood up to confront the Monched Beast, I knew that you were extraordinary."

"Bai Shao City Lord, you are too much of a false praise, huh? Bai Lanxin."

Shen Qiu was also stunned when he saw Bai Lanxin lying on the table at this time.

The city lord of Bai Shao glanced at it, coughed and said.

"I'm sorry, but the little girl doesn't drink well."

"No, she's drunk enough."

"It's okay, uncle will drink with you."

"No, I'm almost done drinking, it's time to go back."

Shen Qiu saw that Bai Lanxin had drunk too much, so he was ready to withdraw.

"Okay, then I'll send you."

"No, I'll go back myself. Bai Lanxin is drunk and needs you to take care of her. ”

"Don't worry about her, I'll let the housekeeper Heyue take care of her."

"That's too much trouble, isn't it?"

"Don't bother, let's go! I'll send you! ”

The city lord of Bai Shao greeted Shen Qiu very warmly and walked out.

Underneath the abandoned factory of Grey League Dix.

Creak~

With the screeching sound of rust rubbing, the iron door was opened.

A dark, vague figure walked in, passing through the emergency lights that were on and off in the underground factory.

The blurred figure could be seen revealing scarlet eyes, leaving a looming afterimage everywhere it passed.

Soon after, the figure walked straight to the center of the underground factory, sat down in a chair, and snapped his fingers.

Da~

In an instant, a series of projected communication images emerged.

In the images that appear, there is a person who can't see clearly. You can only see a pair of eyes full of negative emotions such as evil, lust, greed, etc.

These images that emerged greeted the figure sitting in the chair in a low voice.

"Lord Gamma!"

The name Gamma was placed anywhere in the Three Alliances, and it was enough to cause a shock, because he was the only deputy leader of the Defeated Army Order.
