Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 236 Proxy Battle
Now, let's move forward in time for a moment and go back to this morning.Take your eyes off the spines and look back at a thing that happened.

The hour hand of the clock points to 7, the day has just begun, and the main road in the central area has not yet been congested.A silver car drove smoothly along the avenue, heading towards the dragon's head under the green traffic lights.

The special glass cuts off the sight of the outside world, and no one can see the face of the people in the car.If someone with clairvoyance ability peeks inside, they will be able to see a young man wearing thick-bottomed glasses in the passenger seat, reporting something with a paper file in his hand.

"...The person in charge of Fular Laboratory has reached a consensus with us, and there is only one paper agreement. The acquisition of Pakatia University is going well, and it is expected to be completed in the next quarter." The youth in the passenger seat The person turned to the last page of the file, "The last is the movement of other organizations. Members of the Mutual Aid Society and Deathwing caused a small commotion in the Thorn District yesterday, and the intelligence department analyzed it as a common situation when newcomers enter the city. First contact with this newcomer in front of everyone, but the other party's behavior...is not friendly."

"Unfriendly?"

The young man with glasses looked at his subordinate's report and decided to tell the truth.

"Falta and Jess were stunned instantly after starting the negotiation. Kerry survived the first attack with his ability, but he was beaten until he was stunned before he could counterattack. Only Rosa was not attacked. After analysis, it is believed that this newcomer has certain...male phobia."

"It's still reasonable. Don't contact her for the time being."

"Understood, the information will be sorted out for you later."

The glasses deputy nodded comprehensibly, he understood what the leader meant.Knowing that his subordinates were merciful and didn't kill anyone, he was much better than the average rookie.According to the leader's habit, he would set aside time to personally invite such "promising" newcomers.

"Finally, Cao Xin from the Mutual Aid Association reconfirmed the plan, and arranged it in the afternoon according to your instructions." The glasses assistant reminded, "He was rather uneasy about using the red lion as the trigger point."

"He's afraid of Caldesia Spencer." The leader laughed. "Tell him not to worry, red lions don't usually kill people. We just need her anger to make a little firework, and we'll make the firework a little bit bigger." Fireworks all over the sky... let everyone see what a city without a leader would look like."

"Cao Xin still seems to want to win the support of the Red Lion."

"Hehe...she would rather support John Garcia than me." The leader said helplessly, "I also have immature moments."

When the glasses assistant heard this, he knew that this was something he shouldn't inquire about, so he didn't say any more.After the report was over, the car was quiet for a while.

The leader in the back seat asked.

"How is Mo Yuankai's condition?"

Hearing this name, the glasses deputy became nervous. He swallowed, and replied: "He...has never left the residence so far."

"Ah."

The leader laughed softly, he seemed to be in a good mood today, but the deputy didn't dare to say anything more.

In a few words, they had already entered Cangshou District.Not long after, the silver car stopped in front of the building in the center of Cangshou District, and the glasses deputy got out of the car first, and respectfully opened the door of the back seat.

"Here we are, Chief."

Aurus Otimis adjusted his tie in the car, stepped out of the car, and stood in front of the azure blue building.It was built on the remote Dragon's Head, but it is the true center of the city.This is the integrated office building of Longshou International, a government affairs agency of the Sky Capital jointly managed by the three countries.

Aurus noticed the eyes of the adults. They observed the brown-haired boy's appearance, and the same words were written in their eyes: This is not the place for high school students.

This is reasonable, but it is a pity that this is the capital of the sky.

He walked into the building with a calm expression, and told the lady at the reception the appointment time.The young man acts as if he is the suzerain of this place.But he was indeed a little nervous, not because of these ignorant people, but because of the goal of this trip...

He is about to meet a great man.

·
"Please come in!"

The old man's energetic voice came from behind the luxurious door, and Aurus stepped into the office on the 55th floor with a smile.

In the middle of the soft red carpet is embroidered a golden pattern representing the union: 44 stars are arranged in a circle, and 7 stars surround the double-headed eagle in the middle.There are huge display cabinets on the left and right sides of the oval office, one side contains heavy files and books, and the other side contains all kinds of exquisite playthings and treasures.

Behind the desk facing the door, an old man with a ruddy complexion was sitting casually with a peaceful smile on his face.

The old man wore a luxurious sky-blue robe with rainbow-like bridges embroidered in seven colors; he had fluffy white curly hair and a long silver-white beard, like an old mage in a fairy tale.

Aurus saluted the old man respectfully: "The founder who solved the puzzle, Hong Yiqing who ruled the kingdom of heaven, the head of the Hadrian family, Celeste Hadrian. I am Aurus Oti Mies, it is a great honor to have the opportunity to meet with you."

The old man raised his long eyebrows and said in surprise: "Wow! When did so many people enter this room?"

"It is disrespectful to call a great man by his first name, and that is the point of red tape. Show respect even if it leaves ill feeling."

"Hahaha!" The old man smiled heartily, "Little Aurus from the Otimemis family, you were more lively when you were young than you are now. Sit down quickly—help me get a bottle of wine by the way."

"I am glad to."

Aurus put on a lively smile and walked to the wine cabinet according to the old man's instructions.

"On the floor below, take a bottle of whiskey." The old man smiled, "It's suitable for refreshing yourself early in the morning."

"80-year-old Red Top Whiskey." Aulus took out the bottle as he said, and expressed his heartfelt admiration, "You really have taste."

This bottle of wine was produced 27 years ago from the well-known winery "Red Top" in the west of Morton.The winery closed down ten years ago due to poor management. This bottle of wine alone can be worth a house in Superbia, and the old man only uses it as a refreshing drink.

"If you want to talk about enjoying life...haha! You young people are almost as close as I am."

The amber wine is poured into the glass, and it emits an intoxicating color under the sunlight.Hong Yiqing rubbed her hands, squeezed out a second cup out of thin air, and placed it in front of the visitor's seat.

Aurus thanked him and poured himself a full glass.

"To... what would you like to salute?" Hadrian raised his glass and muttered, "To your father. Congratulations to Gaius Utimes for being re-elected Vice President!"

"On behalf of my father, I would like to thank you for your well wishes."

Aurus clinked glasses with the old man and drank the amber spirit in one gulp.The high level of alcohol made him feel like he had swallowed a fire, and the fire burned from his throat all the way to his stomach, almost giving him the urge to shout.

Aurus controlled his expression and put down his glass calmly.

"Good wine."

"That's good stuff."

Hadrian folded his arms and leaned back, sinking into the soft chair.He stroked his beard and said, "By the way, your father's choice was unexpected. Everyone thought that Gaius would run for president this year."

"Father didn't tell me about this consideration...it's just a personal guess. I think the time is not yet ripe."

"Who said it wasn't? The Sovereign Dragon came two at a time, and one was killed. The world is in such a mess, and everyone is a little at a loss."

The old man stroked his beard and talked about the situation in the world like a family chat.

"Okay, boy," he said, narrowing his eyes, "what do you want to say? You don't have to talk in circles, you can be straightforward-you know, I am 97 years old this year. For a person who is about to enter the triple digits The World Creator of age, there is nothing in this world that is worth caring about. Like every old man, I only have a little personal enjoyment and a little personal pursuit."

Aurus knew that the main event was coming.

The old man in front of him spoke casually, but in fact he was never as detached as he described himself.From this city to the distant United States, Hong Yiqing precisely controlled the entire situation, exerting her own influence on the United States even if she was thousands of miles away.Once a slip of the tongue, all he can get is a glass of expensive wine.

Aurus crossed his hands and looked into the old man's eyes.

"My dear Monsieur Hadrian, I wish to take over the duties of attorney."

"Oh...a deputy?" Hadrian looked puzzled. "I don't remember this city government ever having this position."

"Of course, it is not an actual 'position', but a folk name." Aurus explained to the confused old man in an orderly manner, "The capital of the sky is governed by the three kingdoms, but the agreement signed when the city was built is doomed The impermanence of the Three Kingdoms makes them unable to act freely as in their own country. They can only go all out when major events happen-obviously, the commotion caused by a small number of dragon species is not within this scope."

"But the power of the dragon species is much greater than originally expected. We originally thought that this city would accommodate hundreds of thousands of harmless research materials, thousands of dragon species of the god level, and less than two The number of digits shows the level of combat power.

But in fact, the number of dragon species in the capital of the firmament has approached 460 million this year, and it is expected to exceed 500 million in three years.The fighting power of the god-level is at least 5, and even if it is only counted as the famous dragon species, the fighting power of the display level is at least more than 20.As for the most dangerous dragon species like me, their combat power is at least equal to the peak of their appearance.Not to mention the new monsters and new weapons that the researchers are constantly creating..."

Aulus said slowly: "If you don't include the creation law, the total supernatural power of this city has surpassed any country in the world. If the existence of the impermanent law is not exposed to the light, the three major powers will You can't manage the city anymore."

"You're too pessimistic, kid!" Hadrian refilled his glass of wine and drank happily, "Let's take our eyes off the paper and look at the world outside the window. Since the city was founded six years ago, the city's Law and order has been developing in a stable and good direction!"

boom!As if in response to Hadrian's words, black smoke billowed into the sky from the block in the distance, and a crocodile the size of a building raised its head, and various abilities around it shone brightly.

The old man said without embarrassment: "This morning, only two buildings collapsed, how wonderful!"

Aurus looked away, pretending he didn't see the commotion outside the window.

"The firmness of the sky has been able to survive until now, and it is inseparable from the existence of the agent. The law and order in this city has indeed improved in recent years, and the dragons have become more peaceful. It is our dear Onowell who has created this situation. Sir, the patriarch of the Slok family.

The secret army under him maintains the basic law and order, the school he invested in gives the dragon species a place to live in peace, and his trump card makes all the troublemakers have to keep themselves safe.The power of him and his subordinates stabilized the city again, and maintained a basic balance between forces... So I describe it this way: Onowell Srock was once the agent of the Three Kingdoms in the capital of the sky. "

The old man nodded in agreement: "Onowell did a good job."

"Mr. Onowell is a responsible educator. But I have to say that the situation is different now." Aurus said bluntly, "The collapse of the kingdom has changed too many things. Norwell, is not strong enough to undertake the duties of an attorney."

"Son, this is not the same as choosing the leader of the student organization!" The old man smiled kindly, "Everyone believes in Onowell, that's enough."

Is this enough?From the perspective of the three major powers, a trustworthy agent who has no strength of his own is a good choice.However, from the perspective of Urstes...

Onowell Srock is a rebellious "big patriarch".He didn't care about the interests of the public or the family, but threw himself into this heavenly magic cave.Everyone is happy to see such a brave warrior, but for those in high positions, this agent who is closer to the Mithril pillar than the seven major families is particularly glaring.

"I think this may not be enough, Mr. Hadrian. Because the day of the handover is coming soon." Aurus switched to another topic, "The spokesperson of the empire will arrive at the end of this month, whether it is Mr. Xuanzhi It is still a real military general, and they will not mind helping the weak Mr. Onowell. Lend him the power of the Ritual Hall temporarily, let the impermanence of the empire help the agent to stabilize the situation, and let the power of the empire reasonably Go deep into the city."

No Usters executive is happy to see this situation.Taking advantage of this opportunity to change the agent is the tacit common understanding of everyone.

At this juncture when Morton is weak and the empire has not yet arrived, the capital of the sky where Hong Yiqing sits is his words.Without his approval, you can't really start to act.

Hadrian, fiddling with the cup in his hands, seemed unaffected by the words.

"Hmm... Family interests. Of course, this is a point worth paying attention to, for you." He emphasized your pronunciation intentionally or unintentionally, "But what about you, little Aurus? What about me? "

Aurus realized that he had said the wrong thing, he should not start from a worldly perspective.

The old man's words of congratulations to his father at the very beginning lured him to think in the direction of the ruler.Hadrian talked to him about his family, politics, luxury goods, and public security in this city, acting like an old mayor, but his most important identity is an impermanent lawmaker!
The Mithril Pillar, the Seven Great Families, and even the entire Urstes... These are trivial matters to the old man.Hadrian didn't care about family interests. As the Envoy of Creation, he was already detached from the world!

The old man looked at him calmly, and the wisdom and sensitivity accumulated over the years were hidden in the blue pupils.He was not in a hurry to speak, but magnanimously gave the junior one last chance.

You can't go around in circles anymore, and don't think about being deceived, all scheming is a ridiculous trick to this old man.Straightforward, honest, don't make yourself look like a careerist...

He is a junior.

"For me..." Aulus took a deep breath, "This is an opportunity to go to a higher place, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Oh?" Hadrian said enthusiastically, "Little Aurus, you have already stood tall. You have your own organization, you have your own followers, and you have long been able to influence this city."

"This is far from enough. This amount of power is not enough for me to achieve my goal." Aurus acted impulsively, "Mr. Hadrian, you understand what kind of talent we have. It is the seed from the origin of the dragon , even the power bestowed by the Eternal King himself."

"Just as the Emperor Lingyang appeared in Middle Earth, he created the method of impermanence and the art of returning to heaven. The talented people selected by him controlled the unique power and created the first country in the world. Now the new power comes with the dragon of the sky. Come, a new generation of talented people born in accordance with the times has appeared! We naturally shoulder the responsibility, and we should use our talents in the whole society to lead mankind to a new direction!"

"Unified containment is a decision that anyone can understand, but the three major countries and the current agents only think about temporary stability, and give up the use of power. Millions of dragon species gathered in this city, among them Most of the people are repeating their 'student days' like ordinary people, while a small number of people are engaged in violent conflicts in the streets and alleys, and everyone is squandering their talents, everyone!!"

Aurus stood up unconsciously, the boy became agitated by the strong drink he just drank.

He only had this last chance, so he spoke his inner words without any scruples, telling his dreams to the elders who were older than him.

"Mr. Hadrian, I cannot tolerate this bleak situation. I cannot tolerate so many young talents squandering their strength in meaningless daily battles! Therefore, I want to take over the scepter of the leader, I To prevent meaningless internal friction, I want to unite the forces in the city and let the superpowers go in the right direction. This is not the entrustment of the Ultimis family, nor the intention of Usters, but me, Aurus Otimemis' dream!"

He had finished, and there was nothing more to say.

Aurus lowered his head, quietly waiting for the verdict from the Envoy of Creation.

"Sit down, boy." Hadrian poured him another glass of wine. "Look how excited you are! Have a glass of wine to calm your shock."

"Thank you... I apologize for my rudeness, Mr. Hadrian." Aurus sat back on the chair, took the glass, and drank it down.The cold wine made his throat burn.

"Don't care! You know? You remind me of your father. He was like this when he was young, he spoke very loudly, and always thought he was the best in the world... Now he is not so aggressive, and he is calm in doing things , but I still like the little Gaius from before. Because he had a dream in his eyes when he was young, and he dared to do things that others dare not do."

Hadrian was facing the sun, shaking the wine bottle.He stared at the amber liquor with a slight smile in his eyes.

"You'd be a good leader...yes...responsible, accountable. But let's get down to business. What about me?"

Aurus knew that it was the last level.

"Hong Yiqing" Hadrian will personally sit in the capital of the sky, in order to get in touch with the latest information on dragon species research and obtain the knowledge he craves for the first time.If the empire is allowed to firmly control the capital of the sky, what awaits him is three years or six years, which is almost equivalent to the "window period".For a 97-year-old man, six years is too long to wait.

—Can he use this as a bargaining chip?
Impossible, the means of creating the world far beyond his imagination, Hadrian has countless ways to get the latest research results.So Hadrian was calm, so Hadrian was magnanimous.If he wants to take the biggest bargaining chip, it must be what Hadrian cares about and what he can give.That chip must be heavy and precious, and time-sensitive, capable of tipping the balance of interests in an instant!

He thought about it.

"In the process of changing the agent, we will inevitably have some frictions... small frictions that have nothing to do with the official." Aurus said slowly, "A sealed carrier armed with the mind is very difficult in the process. It may fall into an unstable state. If the carrier loses its will due to an accident, we may only be able to ask for your help to stabilize the armed state."

"Oh, the young people of today!" Hadrian shook his head and said, "Why do you talk so much about it?"

Aurus said bluntly: "I can give you the sword of the end."

"Oh……"

The old man stood up from the chair, and the usual peace and harmony disappeared.He doesn't look like an old man now, his face is full of vitality that young people can't match, and the surging curiosity and thirst for knowledge occupy his pupils, making the old man look greedy like an adventurer for a while, and show With the unique intellectuality of the researcher.

"A precious research material, this is very attractive to me!"

Aurus then stood up with a solemn face.

"This city has never had the position of agent, so the official will not interfere with your actions. But I guess... the agent you describe must be recognized by all forces. All, understand? Including schools and laboratories, including super Capability organizations, and the people behind them."

"I see."

"The agreed time is at the end of the month, and you have less than two weeks left." Hardman glanced at the calendar and said ambiguously, "Not much time!"

"I will arrange the schedule." The brown-haired boy bowed deeply, "Thank you for your trust."

Hadrian closed his hands, nestled back in the chair, and put on a kind smile on his face again.

"Don't be too nervous, little Aurus, I'll give you a personal suggestion. The people from the empire will arrive at the end of the month, but I guess the scouts ahead are already on their way."

"What do you mean?" Aurus asked cooperatively.

"Emperor Yongguang trusts the Qin family the most. This tradition started 2000 years ago and has never changed." Hadrian raised the wine bottle, "Remember, you must be someone everyone can trust!"

The old man threw the wine bottle over, and Aurus caught half of the remaining wine with both hands.

"Thank you."

"Take it and share it with your friends, hahaha!"

Aurus bid farewell to the Envoy of Genesis and walked on the corridor on the 55th floor.He knew he had one more thing to do.After the negotiation with Onowell Snoke is over, it's time to find Qin's spies.

·
At the same moment, a plane landed at Cangshou International Airport.

Between the tourists who came for sightseeing and the parents who came to see their children, there were a few black-haired men with strong bodies and sharp eyes.The young man in the lead, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, was handsome. He was wearing a long-sleeved black dress and army green jeans, with a belt tied around his waist. The hem of his clothes reached his ankles, and was blown up by the wind, making him look like a cape.

"Young man has a really good physique." The tourist uncle was carrying a big bag, standing next to the leading young man and asked, "Are you here for sightseeing?"

"My family's relatives come here to go to school, just come and have a look in summer." The leader replied with a smile, "Your bag is heavy enough, let me carry it for you?"

"Hey, no! It's all clothes!"

"Too polite." The young man said kindly, "A pack full of special bullets, how can it be light?"

The bald man behind the young man raised his hand and knocked, and the old man passed out before his face changed.The leader showed his ID to the airport staff, said a few words in a low voice, and then led the people off the plane first, leaving the staff to do the explosion-proof inspection.

"Brother An, everything was dealt with when we first came down, and all the contraband smugglers were knocked out." The bald man said, "What should we do next?"

"Let's look at Xiaoqian's condition first. The dragon species is too dangerous when it first awakens. Don't stimulate her emotions."

Not knowing what came to mind, Qin An sighed: "Oh! What a good child before, but he was forced to be like this by his family."

"It's all Qin Ming's fault!" the brawny man said angrily.

"Stop talking nonsense, it's none of Qin Ming's business!" Qin An glared at his younger brother, "Let's go, grasp the situation first. Remember, the current situation is special, so don't use special methods."

"You don't need any means, just hold a few talisman papers, how can you find someone?" Putting on a pair of small sunglasses, the bald man smiled and said, "Let's call the Ritual Hall."

Therefore, visitors from the imperial capital of the Qin clan arrived in the capital of the sky, looking for traces of the girls in the clan.

·
Time goes back to the present.

It is now 12:30 noon.Orus Otimis had just had an unpleasant negotiation with Onowell Slok, the principal of Central Union University.He planned to trigger an incident with someone from the Mutual Aid Society in the afternoon, and make contact with the possible arrival of the imperial capital Qin.

The skeleton gave up chasing and killing Mo Yuankai.Badman is leading his men to find missing members of the organization, or kill their killers.

Caldesia listened to the doctor's advice. She found out that there was an activity organized by the Mutual Aid Association in the central area in the afternoon, and she was planning to invite Gongsun Ce to take part in a refreshment.

Qin An is leading his brothers in the clan to look for Qin Qianbai.

Some members of the fraternity are aggressively looking for revenge on someone who beat them up yesterday.Another part of the members of the Mutual Aid Society has malicious intentions and is going to take advantage of the chaos to mess things up.

The president of the mutual aid society did nothing.

The prelude to the big commotion called "Proxy Battle" is about to begin.At this time, Gongsun Ce and Qin Qianbai were eating biochemical bayberry together.
