Chapter 93 93. Five-star General of the Fool Society

The three of them discussed the issue of the note and the forest for half an hour, but they didn't come to any conclusion.

Jiang Jianxin did get a new piece of information, that is, there are safe houses in the forest, but because the forest is too big, it is not as easy to find a safe house as in the wilderness.

So most people choose to go to the wilderness.

In order to figure out what the note was talking about, the forest and the snake, Jiang Jianxin decided to find a safe house in the forest to stay in for the night.

Christine and Gu Fengliu had similar ideas.

However, before night fell, the three of them walked towards the teleportation array together and decided to take a look at the forest first.

The polluted area is exceptionally peaceful during the day, with the sunlight broken into tiny gold foils that fall through the gaps in the treetops.

The moss carpet swallowed up all footsteps, even the sound of breathing sank into the depths of the turquoise sponge. The gnarled branches of the thousand-year-old cypress trees solidified into ink marks in the mist.

The wind has disappeared here. When rotten berries fall into the humus, even the slightest popping sound is sucked away by the lips and tongue of moss. The crowns of towering ancient trees overlap and intertwine, weaving into an impenetrable green dome.

The air was damp and heavy, amber soaked with pine resin wrapped around the leaves, reflecting the sky shredded by the branches. A vast and ancient gaze seeped out from the tangled shadows, causing even the mottled light to hold its breath.

"Click——"

The smell of humus wrapped in the bitter taste of resin accumulates in the nasal cavity, and when people walk by, the dead branches break with a crisp sound.

"There's not even a spider web here..."

Jiang Jianxin said in a low voice, his voice was particularly clear in the silent forest.

"I was right before. There are no animals here."

Christine tilted her head slightly and looked into the depths of the forest, where there were several intersecting paths.

The scattered sunlight fell on her long, fluttering eyelashes, illuminating her smoothly contoured jawline and the sparkling pearl earrings on her earlobes.

The ruby-studded crown was hidden by the shadows of the trees, emitting a faint glow in the darkness.

Jiang Jianxin took a deep breath and saw a big rock on the path ahead.

She took a quick step and sat on it, saying listlessly:
"Let's take a rest first. I'm a little tired."

Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't get tired so quickly, but the key point was that she fought all night and didn't sleep at all.

At this time, the effect of the sword energy treatment wore off, and a feeling of fatigue surged up from his throat.

Kristine and Gu Fengliu noticed her tiredness, so they said nothing and went to the big rock together.

There was enough space for two people to sit on the rock, so Christine sat next to Jiang Jianxin. Seeing that there was no place for him to sit, Gu Fengliu made a standing long jump and jumped directly from the ground to the treetop.

"Susu-"

With the rustling of leaves, he was already sitting on the thick branches of the old tree.

The sunlight scattered through the treetops, revealing his deep eye sockets and bright and handsome facial features. The black robe was piled on his neck, and half of Gu Fengliu's face was submerged in the robe. Only his straight nose and drooping eyebrows could be seen, making him look a little cold.

"No...does this guy have springs on the soles of his feet?"

Jiang Jianxin asked with his eyes wide open.

If she was jumping from the ground to the treetops, she could do it by leveraging the momentum, but if she was using the standard standing long jump posture, relying purely on her jumping power...

The young Sword Master in her prime was fine, but the old Sword Master now is having a hard time.

Christine laughed out loud at her metaphor:
"He just has great jumping ability. The girls in the club privately call him the Frog Prince."

——The prince didn’t know that the frog was a real frog.

Jiang Jianxin hissed.

Speaking of the Fool's Society, her desire to change jobs was aroused again.

The Fool Society executives were right before her eyes, and her long road to job-hopping finally saw hope. She couldn't help but ask:

"Um...Emperor Christine, is our club still short of people?"

Christine: “?”

Seeing her puzzled expression, Jiang Jianxin explained:

"Although I'm in the War Alliance, I've actually admired the Fool's Society for a long time. I've wanted to join them for a long time, but I've never had the opportunity..."

Jiang Jianxin looked at Christine hesitantly:

"I wonder if the Emperor can give me this opportunity?"

Christine laughed and said politely:

"We in the Fool's Society are all fools, and we have always only recruited those with Fool Sequence talents..."

Jiang Jianxin understood what she meant. She pointed at Gu Fengliu in the treetops and asked unconvincedly:

"Then why did he, a member of the war camp, join the Fool's Society?"

Gu Fengliu, who was dozing off in the treetops, opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Jianxin, who was pointing at him, in confusion.

Christine explained:
"The Fool's Society has an offline stronghold and needs to recruit a talented person to guard it. There is no limit on the faction. The monthly salary is 2,000, but the person will be given the status of a Fool's Society member."

"The original guard at the base was an eighty-year-old man. Gu Fengliu transferred three million to the old man and successfully competed against the old man's grandson to become the new security guard at the Fool's Society base."

Jiang Jianxin heard this and said sincerely:
"Emperor Christine, you fired him and hired me. I don't want any salary, I even pay him."

"This……"

Christine's face showed hesitation.

Gu Fengliu on the tree had never seen such a powerful competitor—he was still cheating with a monthly salary of 2,000?
He was obviously getting anxious, and he jumped down from the tree with a "bang", and swung the heavy sword behind him directly at Jiang Jianxin, stammering:

"The security position is mine!"

Jiang Jianxin's Tangguang Sword was instantly unsheathed, slicing a streak of green light in the air. She shouted viciously:

"Let's duel, Frog Prince! The honor of being a five-star general of the Fool's Society belongs only to me!"

"boom--"

The two swords collided, making a crisp sound like weapons clashing, and soon evolved into a contest similar to arm wrestling.

Jiang Jianxin and Gu Fengliu glared at each other, their eyes sparking fierce sparks in the air.

"Hey you guys..."

Christine held out her hand in surprise.

How could she not know - when did the position of security guard in the Fool's Society become so popular, it actually led to a fight between two war giants.

She tried to comfort him:

"Your Excellency Sword Master, Gu Fengliu has been working as a security guard at the Fool's Society for several years and hasn't made any major mistakes. It's not convenient to replace him..."

Jiang Jianxin became depressed. She understood what Christine meant. She was rejecting her request to join the club.

The prophet emphasized in the letter that she should go to the Society of Fools, but it was not so easy to get into the Society of Fools. Her identity as a gifted person in the war camp almost became a barrier that blocked her.

She sighed deeply, and finally put away her sword, glaring at Gu Fengliu fiercely:
"You better not make any mistakes, kid. If I catch you, your position as a five-star general in the Fool's Society will be in jeopardy."

Gu Fengliu sneered and said:

"I am a security guard with rich experience. I am in the security field, so there is no need for Sword Master to worry."
