"Charles!"

In an old manor house covered by greenery, an old but neutral voice sounded, shaking the green mutant creepers on the walls of the manor. In the green leaves that were trying to bloom, there was yellow-brown sap flowing from the veins, the venom of the mutant creeper, and the defense mechanism in the genes was activated by the anger of the voice.

But after a few moments, no hostile targets were detected, and the venom slowly retreated back to the roots.

In Charles's room, he struggled to get up on a large soft bed. Charles jumped out of bed and looked at the two graceful [carcass] bodies on the bed. When he returned from the wilderness last night, he took out his anger on the two young maids, who were under the age of fifteen. It has to be said that these two girls are new to humanity, and the elasticity and tightness of their bodies are amazingly high, which makes Charles quickly turn his anger into something else.

After two hours of continuous fighting, he fell into a deep sleep. During this time, he had forgotten how many times he had vented in both bodies. It's hard for these two girls to be amazingly tough, if it were those delicate women in the old era, I am afraid that they would have disappeared under Charles's crazy sprint. But in this way, it is certain that I will not be able to get out of bed for two days.

"Master Charles. ”

Outside the door, the anxious voice of the butler Laurenque sounded. Charles had heard his father's roar, and shouted impatiently, "I see, tell the old man that I will go at once." ”

Changing into clean clothes and trousers, Charles yawned and walked towards his father's study. Outside the window, the morning light simulated by the Asgard holographic panel casts on the carved ancient windows in the corridor, casting beautiful light and shadow on the floor of the corridor. Charles stomped through the lights and shadows all the way to his father, Meblos's study.

There was some gloom in the study, and Meblos was sitting in his red leather chair with a calm face. On the desk in front of him, a small rectangular brocade box caught Charles's attention.

Charles saluted his father and said, "Good morning, dear father. ”

Meblos snorted from his nostrils, "It's not good at all, see for yourself what this is!"

He threw the brocade box at Charles, and Charles was startled, how could his father, who was usually mild-mannered, be so angry today? He casually took the brocade box and opened it, and there were three things in the box. It's an eyeball, a note, and a pocket storage.

"What is this?" asked Charles, surprised, with a faint uneasiness in his heart.

Meblos said coldly: "See for yourself." ”

Charles unfolded the note, and on the paper was a line of writing in Gothic floral script: Your Excellency Meblos Lambston has kindly informed, and I regret to inform you that your servant Bodon raided my territory last night for no reason. Because of his rude provocation, I intended to capture him and return him to the Imperial Palace. Helplessly, the noble servant not only resisted arrest, but also injured our soldiers, and had no choice but to kill them. Because of the fierceness of the war, it was impossible to save the whole body of the noble servant, and I felt deeply indebted. Today, I will return the stump of the noble servant, and attach another storage container, in which there is a video of the noble servant's attack for no reason, and you should know that what I said is true.

When you sign up, it's "zero"!

Charles was shocked and angry after reading it, shocked that the dark tyrant Bodong actually killed Zero, and angry that Zero did this move, which was a threat and demonstration. He looked up at his father, gritted his teeth, and said, "Father, we can't just leave this matter at that. ”

Unexpectedly, Meblos stood up and scolded angrily: "You idiot, don't you understand? People have evidence in hand, Bodong sneak attack for no reason, and we have already paid the debt first. If you make a fuss about this matter again, you will only be ruined, and maybe even the Helburn family will be involved in this matter. Besides, Botong is already our most powerful warrior, and unless the Helbens are willing to lend their elite, what will we do with zero!"

Charles was sprayed with saliva and paused. He whispered, "Is that all there is?"

"Of course not, but it needs to be considered in the long term. It seems that this zero is not simple, and it is not entirely dependent on relationships. In this way, we must not act rashly. Recently, you have given me some peace, don't give me less trouble outside, and don't give me the handle they found. Meblos commanded angrily.

Charles lowered his head and said, "Got it." ”

But he felt unwilling, being made by Zero like this, not only was the Lambston family swept away, but even he couldn't save face as the heir to the throne.

Looking at the sunlight pouring in from the window at his feet, Charles only felt that the morning beauty was gone.

Although the incident of the Wave [East] raiding the base and being killed did not spread widely in Asgardri, secretly, the news spread among the breweries. The Lambston family is also a big family on the table in Asgardary, and the killing of the head of the family guard is undoubtedly a huge slap in the face to the Lambston family. Thinking about it a little deeper, it seems that even the Helburn family behind it has lost face.

The best thing is that Ren Ling has a video of the wave [east] raid in his hand. With this video as evidence, the Lambeston family did not dare to make a big change to settle accounts, otherwise it would be the Asgard court that would only suffer from Zuihou.

Judging from the fact that three days after the news spread, the Lambston family still did not make any moves, and this dumb loss, Meblos could be regarded as having swallowed up.

As a result, Zero and the company behind him were looked up to by the aristocracy. In the next few days, Zero received a number of orders, and Ben and the Black Rose family had a new injection of funds. This made the Zero Company begin to recruit troops and expand the production scale of the arsenal, so that the production lines of three more new era weapons began to be put into action.

Everything is going on step by step.

On this day, Beonéries invites Zero to meet. Casirio, the butler, personally comes to Zero's apartment to pick him up and goes with him to the Black Rose's house. On the way, Casirio looked at Zero with interest.

After a few days of recovery, the tendon that was severed by Bo Dong with a dark line has healed, and the major and minor injuries on the body are also recovering quickly. But there is still some black blue on his face, which shows from another side that Zero also paid a considerable price for killing Bo Dong.

"All right, Mr. Casirio. I know it's rude to go to see your master with a broken face, but I beg your pardon, it's not going to be easy. Being stared at by an old man for ten minutes, with zero indifference, he couldn't stand it, and he had to protest.

"Bodong's dark energy is not so easy to clear, dark energy is the most obscure liliang in this world. Sometimes you think you've completely cleaned them up, but after a long time, you realize that they are still stubborn and have done some irreparable damage to your body. Casirio smiled faintly and reached out and pressed his hand on Zero's face.

After a flash of energy, the remaining injuries on Zero's body quickly recovered, and even some of the vague injuries in his body were cleared by the old man in one fell swoop.

Zero wanted to say something, Casirio was already smiling, "Don't thank me. As you say, that's rude, isn't it?"

So when the car stopped in front of a secluded manor, Zero couldn't find even a trace of injuries on his body. He got out of the car and walked into the manor with Casirio leading him. It was quiet in the manor, and it was early afternoon, and in the garden of the vestibule, a gardener was silently pruning the branches and leaves of the plants. A stone-carved fountain quietly breathes in the water, and the fountain is sprinkled with scattered flower petals, quiet and elegant.

Stepping on the cobblestone road, Zero follows Casirio to a house. The house adopts the Gothic architectural style, and there is a precipitated atmosphere in the luxury, which is the aristocratic introverted, symbolizing an irreplaceable status.

Stepping through the deep corridor paved with red carpet, Casirio brought Zero to Beonlise's study and said lightly: "You go in, Miss is waiting for you in the room." ”

Zero nodded, reached out and gently pushed open the door of the study. He didn't dare to push too hard, for fear that the noise would be too loud and ruin the silence of the place.

The room was quiet, with sunlight pouring into the study from the side from the floor-to-ceiling windows. The window was open, and countless dust fluttered under the pillar of light, like a dancing elf. Beonise was scribbling on the bookcase, with a small mountain of papers piled up to her left. Beonise was constantly taking down the papers, scanning them and reviewing them as necessary.

She was quick at working on the papers, but that didn't mean Beonise was just skimming through them and jumping to conclusions. On the contrary, although she has ten lines at a glance, every word and sentence is clearly engraved in her mind. These documents are related to the development and future planning of the entire family, and each head of the family is at the helm of the family, if Beonliz has made a mistake in his instructions. Then it will inevitably trigger a series of later reactions, which may lead the family to the Fang Xiangshang that BeonLiz does not want to see.

"Zero, you're here, please wait a minute, give me another 10 minutes. Beonlise said without looking up.

Zero nodded and sat quietly on the couch to the side. He looked at Beonlise, who had changed from the dress she wore to the banquet to a streamlined outfit, reflecting Beonrith's love of efficiency.

Naturally, without the cover of the hat veil of the day, the current Beonise completely revealed her true appearance in Zero's eyes.

Beonise is nearly thirty years old, but in appearance she is no different from a woman in her twenties. Thanks to her meticulous maintenance and the rejuvenation of genetic potions, Beonlise has succeeded in stopping time in her, even though she is not a capable person.

Her hair is pulled high, and when viewed from the side, Beonlise's forehead is smooth and full, a symbol of wisdom. She has a knife-like silhouette, and when her facial features are perfectly proportioned, she presents a striking beauty.

Beonliz had a rimless flat-light glasses on the bridge of her nose, which was originally used to filter out rays that were harmful to her eyes, but at this time, she was framed on the bridge of her nose, which blurred the sharp outline of her face.

Beonise didn't look in the direction of Zero at all from beginning to end, but she seemed to know something, and said as she pointed to the papers, "It doesn't seem like a gentleman to look at a lady closely, right?"

Zero shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "I have never been a gentleman, and with Miss Beonlise's beauty, if I don't pay attention, it will be the biggest impoliteness." ”

At this time, Beonlise finally stopped the pen in her hand, she looked at Zero, shook her head and smiled: "This is the most clever flattery I have ever seen, presumably Mr. Zero must have excelled in pleasing girls." ”

"Miss said with a smile, romance and love is the patent of the golden son, I, a person who struggles to survive every day, how can I waste so much time on this kind of thing. Zero replied with a smile.

"Are you suggesting that I'm wasting your time?" said Beonlis, standing up and raising an eyebrow.

SHE IS ALREADY EXTREMELY TALL, 180CM TALL AND A PAIR OF HIGH HEELS, SO THAT THE IDLE MAN HAS TO LOOK UP. As far as I could see that day, Beyon Liz was wearing a dress, but it was hiding her height. Today's office girl's outfit, the streamlined outfit modifies Beonlise's figure, especially the long legs, which present a near-perfect leg line under the trousers, challenging all men's self-control.

Zero retracted his somewhat rude gaze and smiled faintly, "How dare you." Miss's time is much more precious than mine, and I should be wasting your time. ”

Beonise let out a chuckle and said, "Okay, okay, I'm kidding." It doesn't matter who wastes whose time, in short, it's not a waste if it's about getting down to business. ”

She walked to the opposite side of Zero and sat down, her legs together, leaning back on the sofa, and a lazy beauty in her dignity.

Zero Zhengse said: "Oh, then I don't know what Miss Beonlise is talking to me about?"

"It's a project. ”

"What a project. ”

"Slave hunting. Beonise pulled out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the table, lit it, and took a puff in her mouth. I have to say that no matter what she does, her posture is so elegant, but she never gives people a sense of delicateness, but a sense of cleanliness and ability.

Zero was slightly surprised: "Asgard also has a job of capturing slaves?"

That's not right. Beonise said with a smirk, "We're just making good use of some of the idle resources in the wilderness." Recently, our factories have been running out of manpower again, and we need a new batch of slaves. As I remember, your company is starting to get on track right now, but if you continue to expand, you'll soon be running out of staff. No company in the wilderness had its workers recruited purely by recruitment, and most of them were held by slaves. Slaves were less expensive than regular workers, but they were twice as productive as ordinary workers. ”

"If you need it, I can let you participate in this project, and the captured slaves will be divided into 20%, and you only need to pay the necessary fees to our family. Of course, if you contribute yourself, you can save this fee. How's it going, are you interested in participating?" asked Beonlise, looking at Zero.

A "project" like this would not be so cheap and zero-zero for Beonlis. After all, although the homeless people in the wilderness cannot fight against the regular army, the slave hunting also requires a large number of manpower, and it is even more necessary to accurately grasp the distribution information of the homeless. Capture large quantities of slaves not only to provide them to their own factories for manpower purposes, but also to sell them to others through the black market.

No matter how you look at it, it's a lucrative business.

A business like this naturally doesn't cheapen others. Beonise is willing to let Zero participate, in addition to wanting to establish a deeper friendship with Zero, and because Zero recently killed the head of the Lambston family's guards.

According to Casirio, although the head of the guard, Bo Dong, was not yet a tenth-order powerhouse, the particularity of his ability was comparable to that of an ordinary tenth-order powerhouse. In particular, Bodong's ability to "power of darkness" can form a main shili field similar to that of a realm, which is a very rare ability. Zero was able to kill him, which illustrates the value of zero itself from another aspect.

Compared to the friendship of cooperation, this is probably an important reason why Beonlise deliberately involved Zero in the slave hunting.

Zero nodded and said, "I'll participate, I don't know when I will set off, I will try to form a team of about 100 people before then." ”

At present, in addition to the security personnel of the Zero Point Company, only Zero and Feng can fight. Therefore, it is imperative to recruit soldiers. Now that the company has stabilized, all Zero has to do is to open up new territory. The endless wilderness is not something they can explore with a few people, and the presence of soldiers is a necessity.

In this case, Zero plans to form his own team of soldiers as soon as possible, and the capture of slaves is a great opportunity to sharpen this army.

Beonise laughed, "I thought someone like you would oppose the existence of slaves. I heard, you haven't lived through the Cataclysmic era?"

Zero nodded and said, "That's right, so I have no way of knowing the cruelty of the cataclysm era, so I can only deduce one or two from the current era." To be honest, most of the ideas in my mind are still stuck in the old days, and things like slaves didn't exist in the old days. But no matter what era it is, it is not uncommon for people to eat people and people to exploit people. There were no slaves in the old days, but there were also many people who lived like slaves. ”

"I don't want to boast about how high my moral conscience is, I just want to know what I want to do. Before you can fulfill your ideals, many sacrifices are inevitable. As for the slaves, I think it was the lightest sacrifice, and it was only my personal reputation that was sacrificed. Zero said, "Besides, being a slave in my hands, at least I can promise not to abuse them." As long as they work hard, they will have something to eat, and I can provide them with the most basic medical care, so that their lives are several times better than in the wilderness. Of course, they also have sacrifices, and that is freedom and fame. But in turbulent times, these two things sometimes don't seem so rosy. ”

Beonise nodded and said, "I'm glad you have that thought, Zero." Really, compared to some people who shout about the overthrow of slavery and the proclaim of the famous. But it is much better to secretly have [sexual] slaves and countless coolies. ”

"Well, this project will take place in two months. Hopefully, by then, you'll have your own manpower ready. ”
