Chapter 163: Tommy Lloyd

Lloyd's District, Lloyd's Building, Penthouse Office.

Half past eight in the morning.

Tommy Lloyd had just sat down when he immediately received an internal call.

"Yes, I'm Lloyd's."

The strong man, who was more than two and a half meters tall and taller than many male elves, said in a deep voice.

He was waiting for good news.

Elves are usually emaciated, but Lloyd grows with strong muscles. He's so huge, and his fingers are just as thick. So much so that he simply couldn't use a human turntable phone.

The phone he used was a model customized by a telephone company. It's just like the black suit on his body and the furniture, tables and chairs he uses every day...... The food that ordinary people can hold with their hands, he can only pinch with his fingers.

All products developed for human beings have many discomforts for Lloyd's to use. Only genuine elven products can satisfy his needs slightly.

But no matter how inconvenient his daily life is, it is only a small problem after all.

What really cares about him is the racial discrimination he receives on weekdays.

Or rather, anger.

Avalon is, after all, the land of humans and elves.

Here, not to mention the ignorant and uncivilized trolls and lizardmen living in deserts and swamps, even goblins and dwarves will be banished. Not to mention a half-blood giant like him.

After the victory of the Avalons, almost all the giants in the Giant Kingdom were killed - a move that met with no resistance. Because all giants are warriors, and every giant has eaten people. It was a hatred that I don't know how many generations it had been passed on, but it just broke out at that time.

But what really puzzled and angered Tommy was that the people who could leave the blood of giants back then were the half-blood giants who once supported Avalon...... In other words, these half-blood giants are not the blood of giants, but the blood of half-blood giants, and they should not be discriminated against.

At one point, he even wanted to leave Avalon and head to the Far North.

It is said that there are still remnants of the giants - a heresy that existed while the kingdom of giants still existed.

They are giants of the path of wisdom.

Unlike the trolls on the Southern Plantations, the giants had brains and were very good at wielding, just like Tommy is today. Pure-blooded giants have a higher IQ than humans, but they are carried away by a never-ending rage and choose not to use it.

The giant philosophers who had gone on the path to wisdom traveled to the far north, relying on the cold of the outside world to suppress their furious instincts.

They have given up cannibalism in favor of fish, seabirds and seals, and have become smaller, with thick white hairs growing over their dark red, burning skin, and mild-tempered tempers. Day and night fell into esoteric philosophical thoughts, and even a great philosophical apostle appeared.

Tommy wanted to go over there, too, and at least it was quiet.

And the giants who live in the cold regions will also accept the half-giants who come to take refuge. The only problem is that Tommy doesn't know if he can calm down.

When he is old, he may move in to support the elderly. He sometimes thinks so.

But until then, he still wants to fight hard while he's young enough.

After the path of power becomes the path of authority, the impulse of the path that remains in the bodies of those giants who have not turned to the path of wisdom naturally becomes the path of authority.

Some of the giants resisted this impulse with ambition, reversed it, and went to the path of transcendence—they were the high-ranking members of the noble Red Society. They have gone down a different path entirely, parting ways with the giants who are still indulging in the impulse of the blood.

But even though Tommy accepted the "Sons of the Serpent" ritual, he was added to the Transcendent Path Adaptation...... After all, he didn't have the talent to transcend the path. He has always had an authoritarian heart, which is the instinct that flows in the blood of giants.

For him, transcendence is only a tool, and authoritarianism is the goal.

Tommy can't restrain the desire for power that is always boiling in his heart...... Because of this, although he is also a half-blood giant, his status in the noble Red Society is not high.

- Even his compatriots looked down on him in the same way.

They are able to completely resist the "false call" of the authoritarian path in their bloodline and choose another path. But Tommy couldn't.

He actually wanted to do it too.

That's why he gradually gave up the management of Lloyd's. By gradually moving yourself away from the center of power, you can gradually adapt yourself to the purest desire for transcendence. It's like the practice of the monks – by practicing the path of wisdom, to get rid of their own authoritarian desires.

But he clearly failed.

Tommy couldn't help but let out a sweet sigh when he sat in his seat again. It's like drinking strong wine, and the fragrant aroma fills the brain.

He's an outlier after all.

Whether in humans, or in giants; Whether it's at Lloyd's, or noble red.

But so what?

Those giants looked down on him, how could he look down on them?

There is no culture and no brains. Giant's Restoration Plan - Have You Recovered Your Country?

The giants involved today simply do not have enough population to support the restoration of the country. And with the development of the times, human technology has been able to partially ignore the talent gap between humans and giants...... And most importantly, their God, the High Heaven, is no longer in his place.

The plan of the noble red is nothing more than a castle in the air. They are nothing more than pawns used by the Star Antimony, a bunch of consumables used to disrupt the situation in Avalon.

That's why Avalon never worries about them...... Because no one will let the knight master be improper and use it as an ingredient for the giant.

They have no power, but they can't shake the foundations of Avalon at all.

And the power is simply not enough...... At least any of Avalon's few powerhouses can make Noble Red extremely jealous when pulled out.

Tommy's work is much simpler.

- He just needs to put himself on the throne.

Whether it's marrying a princess, usurping the throne, or being a regent—anything. Tommy doesn't care about his race, and he doesn't care about his offspring. All he cares about is himself.

Today, all of Tommy's plans are developing smoothly - to increase his voice and influence in the Noble Red through Lloyd's, to integrate those human merchants with the power of the Noble Red, and then to influence the Round Table through Lloyd's, and then to become the underground emperor of the entire Avalon.

Because his plan is quite executable, many smart people will be on their side.

And one day, the emperor of the underground will also go to the earth.

At that time, all those who looked down on him will have to pay the price.

Now, all he has to do is endure and wait.

“…… What? ”

After listening to the news on the phone, Tommy was slightly stunned.

It wasn't the same news he was waiting for.

But he wasn't flustered. After pondering for a moment, he simply replied, "Please ask her to come up." ”

He straightened his shirt and poured two cups of tea. One cup is for yourself, a large cup; And the other cup is for humans. It's about precision for him, but he's been training for a long time.

Not long after, an old lady in good spirits walked up.

Her hair is white, her cheekbones are high, and her face has clear wrinkles. But her back was straight, her arms were full of muscles, and her eyes were shining.

"Tommy!"

As soon as she entered, there was a roar of rage, causing the half-giant's hand to tremble slightly.

But Tommy didn't dare to make a mistake in front of her, so he could only laugh with him: "Lady Meg, what ...... you want me to do?"

"-Don't pretend to be garlic!"

Meg interrupted him rudely.

She didn't use the power of the path, but her fiery gaze was like the muzzle of a gun.

"Where did you get that Moriarty? Put him back! ”

Meg commanded.

For the first time, Tommy thought that the attack he had sent someone last night was exposed. But he quickly reacted:

…… Took?

Didn't you let them attack each other?

"I think you must have misunderstood, this matter should have nothing to do with our Lloyd's...... At least I don't know about it......"

"[To tell you the truth]." Meg commanded directly.

"I really didn't send anyone to arrest him, the noble red society was unhappy that Ivus had joined Lloyd's, so I sent a group of people to kill him directly."

Tommy blurted out.

As soon as he spoke, his face suddenly became ugly.

"Hmph."

Meg snorted coldly.

The old lady, who was less than half his height, made him frightened just by looking at Tommy.

"What about staffing? [Say it all]. ”

"Four Demon Scholars, two second-level and two third-level. With a whipping demon, a blade demon, and two demon dogs......"

“…… Blade Demon? ”

Meg sneered: "You really want him to die."

"Then, if he dies, let him die with him."

Her voice fell, and her voice rumbled like thunder. Silvery-white runes embedded in Tommy's mind like hallucinations.

Tommy suddenly didn't dare to speak again, and the intense fear made him sweat down his spine.

"Listen, boy. You can't move this person, understand? Give you three days to put the person back. ”

"I really didn't catch ......"

Tommy's voice almost pleading, "You should be able to tell if I'm telling the truth......"

"Heh, I know it's not you. But it's always something to do with you sending someone to attack him, right? Just because you didn't kill him doesn't mean you're innocent. It's not you, it's some other faction in the Lloyd's that doesn't agree with you, or it's in the association. I don't care, you're better than me. You take care of it.

"I'll give you some information - the captor should be a demon with a shadow demon, possibly named Aleister. Anyway, you go find him and bring someone to kill him. Bring Ivus back again.

"[If you can't do it, you'll die], got it? They don't dare to touch you, I dare. ”

Meg's words fell again, seared into Tommy's soul.

She stretched out three fingers and finally emphasized: "Three days, remember." Don't think about running, you can't run. ”

"Yes, I know ......"

The giant lowered his head in a low voice: "I will do my best for you......"

"Don't put this aside to show loyalty to me. Do your best for your own life, boy. ”

Meg said, without any fuss, turned around and left.

It's a little late, but the update is complete!
