Chapter 823: Interests First
[Thank you for the support of the full-time angel and the little pig with a big monthly pass!]
Although it was late at night, the mayor's mansion in Dawning City was brightly lit. In the hall, Beonlise, Leah, Kaede, and the others sat and stood just to wait for Zero to return.
"Why haven't you come back......" Beonise walked back and forth, and when she woke up, Zero had already left the city. Several hours had passed now, and Zero had not returned, so she was naturally worried.
The others couldn't be at ease, even if they had confidence in Zero, but the opponent was an eleventh-order guy after all. It was the highest-ranking powerhouse that Zero had faced so far, and it was impossible not to worry about it.
The sound of the locomotive engine suddenly sounded outside, and in the case of a new locomotive, the sound of the engine was very soft. It's just that now in the dead of night, all the sounds are infinitely amplified. What's more, all the people in the hall, except for Beonlise and other ordinary people, are all capable people, and which one is not a person who is deaf and clear-sighted. Hearing this, everyone's faces showed joy. Beonise glanced at Leah even more, and then the two girls ran out of the house holding hands, and the others followed. As soon as he got out of the door, a locomotive had already driven into the vestibule and stopped at the fountain.
Zero got off the locomotive and was surprised to see so many people, "Why are you all here?"
Leah and Beonlise had already pounced on them despite the numbers, and the two girls hugged Zero tightly, for fear that it was an illusion. Zero patted the two of them and said softly, "Why don't you sleep ...... yet?"
Leah looked up and said, "If you don't come back, we won't be able to sleep." β
"Yes. Kaede took over and said with a smile, "Now that I'm back, let's all go to sleep." Su, do you want me to accompany you?"
"Come on, it's not that I've been training too hard lately, and I might accidentally punch some guys to death when I go to bed at night. Su raised his fist.
Everyone else laughed.
Xiuya pushed the others out and asked, "That guy, you've already killed you?"
"He's become more than two hundred evolution points. Zero said calmly.
Xiuya smiled proudly: "It is worthy of the man I fancied, and it really didn't disappoint me." She walked over, hooked Zero's chin with her hand in front of Beonlis's two daughters, and said, "Why don't you let me accompany you at night?"
Zero glared at her fiercely and said, "If you want to seduce a man, let's talk about it when you grow up." β
Xiuya lost her voice and said, "I'm not old enough?" She even deliberately squeezed the murder weapon on her chest, and then looked at Leah and Beonlise defiantly.
"I mean here. Zero reluctantly pointed his finger at his head, and then said to the others, "Okay, let's all go back to sleep." I'll talk about it tomorrow, I'm tired now. β
Feng Wen Yan smiled evilly: "Head, you will be more tired at night, take care." β
Everyone else smiled knowingly, and Haiwei asked "What is it for?" with a puzzled expression, but gave Yeliu a punch on the head. After the natural stupid girl scolded "stupid", she dragged Haiwei away. Both Maple and Brown let out a knowing laugh from the men, and when they saw Zero return, they finally left with peace of mind.
After walking out of the mayor's mansion, the smile on Su's face retracted, and he turned to Feng and said, "Starting tomorrow, I will conduct special training, you will be my opponent." β
Kaede also put away his smile, and pressed his hands with a "snap": "I can't ask for it, Brown, are you coming?"
Brown waved his hand: "I'm not coming, I don't know how many catties I have." Now that I'm at the limit of my potential, even training won't help much. It's better to help him manage the army and do what he can. As for the rest, it's up to you. β
Although it is not explicitly stated, everyone knows it in their hearts. Today there is a Nicholas, and tomorrow there may be some other strong man. But you can't let Zero face it alone every time, so she has always had the intention of special training, she and Kaede are already standing at the peak of the ninth order, and they are only a very short distance away from advancing to the tenth order. What they have to do is to step into the tenth order as soon as possible when a strong enemy appears next time, so that they can be qualified to have a place in the highest-level battlefield.
It was clear to everyone that the next enemies would only be more difficult and stronger than the other. That's because Zero has stepped into the ranks of the top powerhouses, and he has come into contact with the highest level of the pyramid of this era. Correspondingly, the enemies he had to face were no longer those of his past. As followers of Zero, they also have the consciousness to become stronger, even if this consciousness is just to not slow down Zero's pace, they have to do their best to pursue greater and stronger strength.
In the mayor's mansion, Xiuya returned to her room in a huff. From the loud sound of the door, you can see how angry this talented girl is now. Hearing this voice, Beonise smiled and said, "That girl is not bad, not to mention that she took the initiative to ask, why should our Zero Master raise her noble hand." β
Zero smiled: "There are many reasons, she is the first knight of the Dark Council, and it is not a good thing that the relationship is too close. More importantly, I look like an abusive guy. β
Beonlise sat on his lap and said deliberately, "So you're still a love saint?"
Zero kissed her on the forehead and said, "All right, Beth." Don't hold yourself down, just cry if you want to. I have avenged Mr. Casilio, and from now on, I will take care of you in his place. β
Beonlise's eyes immediately turned red when she heard him say this. Finally, the pain in her heart that could not be relieved was still revealed, but she did not cry, but let herself laugh and said: "You have avenged him, and I have no reason to cry." If I were so weak, my uncle would have laughed at me. β
"In that case, let's do something to make Casirio happy. β
"What's the matter?" Beonise asked, puzzled.
Zero pointed to her lower abdomen and said, "Giving birth to a child." β
Beonise stood up, her face hard to hide her joy: "You mean, you can ......"
"Well, I've found a way to get you pregnant with our baby. Leah, who had been smiling at them, said, "Come on, let's consolidate some of the effects." β
Beonlith looked at Leah and said, "Are you already ......?"
Leah nodded, and then said to Zero, "I'm not coming, I can already feel that there's a little thing here." She gently stroked her lower abdomen, which was still flat, and then said, "So you should accompany Sister Bessie tonight, and don't disturb our mother and son to rest." β
With that she went straight away, Beonise pulled Zero up and walked towards the bedroom, and said, "I want twice, no, three times!"
"You're not afraid of getting tired?"
"Joke, let's see who surrenders first tonight. β
Not long after the bedroom door was closed, BeonΓ©rith's moaning began to be heard in the room. Then, a moment later, the moans had turned into screams. This made Xiuya upstairs hear clearly, and she covered her ears and wrapped herself in the quilt. But I couldn't sleep, the screams below continued, and the girl angrily rushed to the window and yelled, "Don't scream, don't let people sleep." β
Beonlis, however, responds to the girl's protest with a louder cry.
The morning light slipped in through the half-hidden window. It struggled to climb up to a large bed not far away, and then to the messy bed. Then there was a white thigh, and then a sleeping woman with a happy smile on her face. The woman reluctantly said "um" in the light of day, turned around again, struggled to get herself into the sheets, changed into a more comfortable position and continued to sleep.
Only five minutes later, she suddenly sat up, looked at the electronic clock on the wall, and her face suddenly changed. Beonlise held her face and said, "I overslept, damn it, it's all to blame on that guy." β
Before she could jump out of bed, she saw a note pressed by an automatic pistol on the table next to the bed, which read: "I'll go to a meeting with them to see how you've been doing in the intervening years." Go back to sleep, my beautiful mayor. β
Seeing this note, BeonΓ©ris smiled. She stretched and lay down on the bed in a large font. Pulling the quilt and rolling it up at her feet, holding the pillow, Beonise thought, I'll give myself a vacation today.
With Zero, she can finally stop playing the shrewd and cautious female mayor, but be an ordinary woman again. Although, Beonlise only intends to take a day off.
In the office building in District 1 of Dawning City, Zero held a meeting. The attendees were mostly old members of the Aurora side, including Eva, Brown, Corde, and a few other new faces. As for those who followed Zero to the Western Continent, only Ji Ya and Billy were in attendance, and the other pixels and other abilities did not attend. The main content of this meeting was to listen to the progress report of Dawning City, so the participants also focused on it.
There was another old face in the meeting this time, and that was Theon. Beonlise was not in attendance, and he was responsible for explaining all the reports on the progress of the construction of Aurora, and in the construction of Aurora City, Theon's contribution was no less than that of Beonrith. His main role was to negotiate with Asgard, and to persuade the other two wealthy families of Asgard and some high-class nobles to invest in Dawning City.
Beonritz, on the other hand, devoted herself to the planning and management of the city. It can be said that Theon helped her share a lot of work. And when it comes to business dealings with wealthy families, Theon is indeed more suitable than Beonlith. This is not to say that Beonise does not have talent in this area, and if she does not have talent, she will not be able to squeeze the Black Rose family into the ranks of first-class giants.
It's just that Beonise has more or less a bit of a problem with the other two giants, on the contrary, Theon has no worries about this. What's more, during Theon's time in Asgard, he could be regarded as having extensive contacts, and the two giants had to sell him more or less face. What's more, this person has a hand in politics and business, and with him by his side, Beonlisa's work is naturally much smoother.
But after chasing the roots, the two wealthy families and even other upper-class nobles are willing to invest in Dawning City, in the final analysis, I still see that Asgard has already made a statement first, and the environmental purification technology of Dawning City is indeed tempting. Now, the Shield of Nesserys, which was sold for half and half given away, has been put into use on the outskirts of Asgard. After nearly a year of construction, the demonstration site has become a pollution-free surface living area.
An unpolluted surface environment brings huge potential benefits. It was precisely because of the purification technique of Dawning City that the wealthy nobles invested one after another, and their attention was still above the war between the Dark Council and Valhalla. Some families are even following the example of Black Rose and are quietly transferring their family resources to the new paradise of Dawning City.
