The Heartthrob Guide: Dodder of S-Class Sentinels

Chapter 48 Warning
As soon as this person said this.

The whole audience fell silent for a moment.

After a while, everyone regained consciousness and started talking to each other in low voices.

"Shh—Channel Y2-3679, come in."

Lan Yin was sitting in the VIP room, drinking coffee leisurely. He had anticipated this outcome long ago, so compared to other people's reactions, he seemed very calm.

During normal training, no one could be Caesar's opponent, let alone now that they are in the arena.

"Why don't you follow my instructions?"

At this moment, a cold voice came from behind.

Lan Yin put down the coffee cup in her hand, stood up and saluted the visitor: "Uncle."

The person who came was President Edward who had just spoken at the opening ceremony.

The president, on stage and off, has a completely different persona. On screen, he's gentle and well-intentioned, but behind the scenes, he's stern and scheming. Now, standing in the shadows, the familiar smile he often wears in public has vanished, replaced by a solemn expression, his deep eyes holding an unfathomable, complex expression.

He expressed extreme dissatisfaction with Lan Yin's behavior.

Facing his uncle's questioning, Lan Yin did not panic at all. The young man still maintained proper etiquette and slowly explained: "My nephew thinks that Guide Lin is more capable than the Irish guide."

"Just because she's a D-rank?"

Edward frowned, obviously he had also read all of Lin Nan's information.

The Queen selected the second Irish daughter of the Ned family, a representative of the old-school aristocracy, as the Crown Princess from among countless female guides. Her intention was very obvious. The power of the former president was still deeply rooted, and their people had infiltrated every corner of the House of Representatives. His appointment was actually not legitimate, and those old guys were always trying to make things difficult for him.

It was their suggestion to let his nephew serve as a guard for Ireland, under the pretext of increasing the emotional connection between the younger generations of the new and old factions. In fact, they were constantly humiliating him with this idea in mind.

They intended to make Lan Yin the lover of Ireland, but Ireland was already the fiancée of the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince was the son of the previous president. The intention here was too obvious.

But Edward had no choice. The league among the younger generations was just a small matter, but the power game behind it was complicated and he had to be cautious in every step.

So he agreed and arranged both Lan Yin and Kaisa to Ireland, but he did not expect that Lan Yin would make such a decision on the day of the league.

"I remember this little girl. My chief of staff even rewarded her with an energy item."

Lan Yin instantly realized the watch that Renault had given to Lin Nan: "Was that prop a gift from you, uncle?"

Edward nodded. "Hosen also reported a very interesting incident not long ago. I'll tell you more about it when I have time. Try to get along with her these few days. I won't pursue the matter of your temporary team change. If there's any trouble over there, I'll go and speak for you."

"Thank you, uncle." Lan Yin nodded again.

Because the schedule was very full, Edward left without saying a few words.

Lan Yin was the only one left in the lounge. He crossed his arms, tapping his arms lightly with his fingers. After thinking for a while, he opened the terminal and sent a message to someone.

Time passed quickly, and by five o'clock in the afternoon, the first round of eliminations was halfway through.

"I'm so tired. My waist is sore from sitting so much." Ellie stood up and stretched her muscles. "Let's go get something to eat."

Lin Nan studied the battle schedule and was sincerely impressed by the event arrangements that were so complicated that they could not be rolled up any further.

"300 teams, half of them will be eliminated on the first day. The competition won't be over until the early morning. Is this how everyone at Sentinel Academy fights?"

"Oh, don't worry. These sentinels are full of energy anyway, and many of them don't sleep at night." "Do we need to stay up that late?"

"No, the school will arrange a car to take you back to the dormitory after dinner. If a guide's team is competing at night, the school will consult with the guide individually to see if she wants to stay."

That's it.

Lin Nan glanced at the teams competing in the evening and found that she knew quite a lot of people, such as Renault's team, which was around eight o'clock in the evening.

Lin Nan was debating whether to send a message to Renault to say hello. Because of her, he got beaten up for nothing, and she felt really bad about it.

But when she called up Renault's terminal page and saw the word "stranger", she was instantly ashamed.

Well, I deleted her as a friend. It seems that I really offended him.

But it's not her fault.

Lin Nan scratched his head and closed his page.

Forget it, just delete her as a friend. She won’t send messages anymore to avoid giving people a headache.

Thinking this, she put away the terminal and went to the VIP restaurant with Ellie.

In a corner outside, Caesar pushed the sentry, who was no longer able to fight back, to the ground. He snatched his terminal, unfastened the screensaver in front of his face, and flipped to Lin Nan's interface. He looked up and down their previous chat records. Seeing this pretentious words, he sneered in disgust, and then deleted the friend without mercy.

"Go back and tell that leopard that the major general put those dirty ideas on her head. She is now our guide."

"Caesar, we've always kept our distance." Renault struggled to get up from the ground, clutching his injured chest, his face filled with resentment and anger. "Are you really going to go against us just because of a guide?"

No matter how special Lin Nan is, in Renault's eyes, he is just a D-level guide. Although it is a pity, it shouldn't be so serious that Caesar would target him like this.

After all, in this world, no matter how precious guides are, D-level ones really don't have any good prospects. After graduation, they will probably be assigned to some bitter and cold border area, and they are destined to enter politics in the future, with a future that is out of reach for most people.

Caesar's expression was cold. He took a step forward, and a strong sense of oppression came over him.

He raised his foot and stepped on the man again.

Renault couldn't hold on any longer and spat out a mouthful of thick blood.

He tried in vain to push away Caesar's foot that was stepping on him, but he felt that the foot seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and could not be moved at all.

"Ka...Kaisa, don't be too proud. We'll see..."

"Garbage." Caesar's dark golden eyes revealed a bloodthirsty murderous intent.
-
Ireland has always been ahead of Lin Nan.

Once she got to a place away from camera surveillance, the anger she had been holding back all day finally erupted.

"Lin Nan, come here!"

Lin Nan, who was called, hesitated for a moment, but finally followed her.

If you encounter an unreasonable colleague and cannot get what she wants at the beginning, it will be quite troublesome later. If you can deal with it earlier, it is better to deal with it earlier.

Lin Nan followed Ireland to another private corridor.
