When Bourne heard that there was a company here, he had already planned to run further away, but the Chamber of Commerce would not do something like treating the infected. Maybe it was a charity or something else?
His current physical condition won't allow him to hold on for much longer, so he has no choice but to take a gamble.
Bourne gritted his teeth, stood up, and walked out somewhat unsteadily, looking at the two infected people chatting on the street corner.
"Excuse me, but where is the place you're talking about for treating the infected? Could you point me to the location?"
"Over there, over at the old factory."
Bourne's messy appearance and wounds really scared the two infected people. They didn't want to get into trouble, so they could only quickly point in the direction of Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals and leave quickly.
Taking a deep breath, squeezing out the last bit of energy, and dragging his increasingly heavy body, Bourne moved forward with all his might in the direction the other party pointed.
Chapter 45 The Unlucky Little Platinum
“Ah…what a hassle.”
The assassins of the Helmetless Alliance were severely damaged by Bourne's desperate counterattack. In order to avoid being punished for mission failure, Sintela had to take action even if she didn't want to.
With the excellent eyesight brought by her Pegasus bloodline, she quickly found Bourne, who was struggling to move.
"Where are you trying to run to..."
Xinteleya took the longbow from her waist and skillfully drew the bow and arrow. She did not need to consider the distance, wind speed, and falling direction. Her innate talent allowed her to easily lock onto Bourne, and the complaints in her words turned into a sigh.
"Hey~"
The thumb that was hooking the bowstring released, and the arrow that could easily penetrate the knight's armor flew out of the string.
"Wait, that's... Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals!?"
Sintela saw clearly the destination of Bourne's escape, but the arrow had already left the bow. In order to prevent any unexpected twists and turns, Sintela was a little more alert in this attack. The arrow flew across the sky like a storm and hit the back of the prey.
When Bourne heard the sound of something cutting through the air, his eyes were bloodshot. Just being able to stagger forward had exhausted all his strength. He had no way to dodge now, and the abandoned factory where Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals was located was less than a hundred meters away.
Is that it?
"Moderately infected with Ore Disease, in the midst of an acute attack, with shoulder trauma and physical exhaustion. This qualifies for assistance under Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals' regulations for infected individuals, and will be provided with assistance."
A cold light flashed in the synth's smart eyes. Bourne was lucky. He walked into the synth's sensor range at the last moment and triggered the regulations that Si Ye later added to the synth's permission list.
The synths carrying building materials at the edge entered combat mode, their bionic muscles swelled under the stimulation of electric current, and then rushed straight behind Bourne at a speed far beyond that of an ordinary person.
The arrows, like a storm, tore the bionic skin of the synthetic human body. The arrowheads used to penetrate armor were broken by the lightweight titanium bones, and then broke and were grabbed by the synthetic human.
"No. 0317 is under attack. Hand damaged. Body functions are normal. Requesting authorization to counterattack."
From the moment Sintela launched the attack to the moment the synth intercepted the arrow, it happened in a flash.
When Xinteleia reacted, she only felt several gazes locked on her, and the source of these gazes was exactly the Rhodes Island employees who had made her feel uneasy when she contacted Siye this morning.
This time the feeling was even stronger. Xinteleya felt that if she made even the slightest movement, she might die. She could only maintain her grip on the longbow and dared not move at all.
"Take him down and treat him."
Si Ye staggered out of the factory, stopped the synths' combat mode, and waved to Xinteleya from a distance.
When the gaze that was locked on her disappeared, Xinteleya felt the back of her clothes wet with sweat. At the same time, she also saw Si Ye greeting her.
Turn around and run?
Xinteleya felt that her weak arms and legs could not bear the torture any more, and she also felt that she was really unlucky today. It was bad enough that she had to bite the bullet and contact the other party in the morning, but she could even provoke the other party while doing a task in the evening.
But what could he do? In the end, he hung the longbow back on his waist, jumped a few times from the roof to the ground, and walked towards Si Ye reluctantly.
"Isn't this Miss Xinteleya? What a coincidence, we meet again so soon."
"Um...yeah..."
Cintrea tried hard to force a smile on her face, and looked at Bourne being taken away on a stretcher by the synths, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"Is that gentleman the target of the No-Horned Alliance? Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals specializes in treating infected individuals. If there are any infected individuals, we have to save them. I hope we won't cause you any trouble."
How could there not be trouble? If the person is rescued, she might be the one who gets into trouble.
Her defenses were broken, Xintelaiya was completely broken. Everything went wrong today, and the pressure from the No-Hero Alliance, which treated people like humans, surged into her heart. Xintelaiya could no longer hold back.
"He's a target that the Heroesless Alliance and the Commerce Federation want to get rid of. Could you please return him?"
Xinteleya gave up. As a poor worker in the Helmetless Alliance, she could not bear to offend either side. If she was going to die anyway, there was no need to keep a smile.
Then Xinteleya's face turned gloomy, showing an expression that showed she had looked down on life.
"Oh, that's right. It looks so awkward with that fake smile on. It looks much better like this."
It's right, this feeling of a beautiful girl office worker, can it be said that the current Sintela with a cross face is the platinum in Siye's previous life game memory,
Si Ye nodded in satisfaction, then shook his head: "The names of the Commercial Federation and the Wuzhou Alliance are not enough to make me back down."
Xinteleya had expected that the Chamber of Commerce and the Helmet-less Alliance were not well-known. Although she was a bit boastful, she could become the Platinum Leader of the Helmet-less Alliance not by her looks but by her strength. The only ones in the entire Helmet-less Alliance who were stronger than her were the two Qingjins and the three elusive Xuantie.
She was not completely confident that she could defeat any of those Rhodes Island employees, and she had met so many of them before.
At least no less than 20, but can the No-Horn Alliance come up with 20 platinums?
The employees are so capable, so what about Si Ye as the boss? The other party is a pure newcomer. Will the Chamber of Commerce or the No-Horned Alliance offend him for her little platinum, Xintelaiya?
The answer is of course no, so Xinteleya gave up.
"Then please give me a quick death..."
Si Ye didn't say anything, but instead looked up and down at Xinteleiya, who looked like she was showing off. She had a slender figure, was youthful and beautiful, and her clothes had a rather peculiar style. Her breasts would be considered immoral if they were a little bigger, but on Xinteleiya, who had a more reserved figure, her charm was just right.
Women are sensitive to gazes. Si Ye didn't say anything, but his behavior of looking her up and down scared Xinteleya.
Xinteleya suddenly took several steps back, the hem of her clothes hanging at her waist was lifted up, and her hand was already on the dagger hanging there, with an expression as if she was ready to commit suicide in case Si Ye was a sex maniac.
"Ahem, Miss Xinteleya, you misunderstood. I am a very upright person."
Secretly nodding to the fair and tender waist that Xinteleya had revealed when she lifted up her skirt, Si Ye spoke righteously with a serious expression.
"And I was just joking. I've already said I admire you, Xinteleya. How could I deliberately embarrass you?"
Si Ye raised his hand, and black ice crystals condensed at his fingertips. Then, from bones to muscles, fat to skin, a head was quickly constructed out of thin air. The appearance of the head was exactly that of Bourne who had just been carried in on a stretcher.
Si Ye handed over the completed head. "Once the infected person has been properly treated, I will arrange for him to be renovated and will not appear before the Chamber of Commerce again. So, Miss Xinteleya, you can use this to report back."
Xinteleya was stunned and subconsciously took the head that appeared out of thin air in front of her from Si Ye's hand.
As the Platinum Lord of the No-Head Alliance, Xinteleya's hands were inevitably stained with blood, so when she got the head, she immediately recognized that the head was real. And when Si Ye's psychic restraint disappeared, tissue fluid mixed with blood flowed out from the broken end of the head, and it was even a little warm.
How was this possible? Xintelaiya saw with her own eyes how Si Ye created this head out of thin air, from bones to skin. Even the owner of this head was lying intact on the stretcher. She thought it was some kind of illusion or some kind of Originium skill.
What kind of Originium skill can be so weird!
Cintela held the head in her hands, letting the blood completely stain her hands red, feeling as if her worldview had collapsed.
Chapter 46 The current situation of the infected is shocking
"Why, this isn't possible?"
Si Ye looked at the dazed Xinteleya and took two steps forward.
"Too, too close..."
Xinteleya shuddered and came to her senses. She subconsciously wanted to push Si Ye away, but she was holding a bloody head in her hand, and she didn't want to dirty her white clothes, so she could only lean back suddenly.
"Does it work? If not, I'll make another one for you and see. If that doesn't work, I have other ideas."
"No, no, no, this one will do."
Xinteleya shook her head like a rattle.
This wasn't something he said against his will. After all, the people above him only wanted the mission results. Even though it might be a bit shocking to bring back a head, it wasn't impossible.
"It's good that it works,"
Si Ye nodded his finger, and the synth understood and brought over a bag. He considerately helped Xintela put the head away, and brought over a towel so that Xintela could wipe her hands clean.
“Why do you want to treat the infected…”
Xinteleya suddenly asked a question, because Si Ye, as the controller of a company, looked quite different from the agents and directors of the Chamber of Commerce.
"I'm not just saving the infected. It's just that their situation makes them more urgently in need of help and change."
Si Ye shook his head. The last rays of sunset fell on the horizon, and the thick shadows obscured his expression, leaving only two blue-black eyes with a captivating light.
"After all, I came to Casimir essentially to watch the knight games and travel. Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals is just here to expand their market. However, some of my little research has left me feeling a bit alarmed."
"An infected person living in Cavalleriakin, unless they are a noble and have no inheritance from their ancestors, would need to do at least 14 hours of heavy physical labor every day to earn a basic living wage. They would have to work at least 27 days a month to earn a living wage."
Si Ye was like an orator giving a speech in a beer hall, but the facts in his words were full of motivation.
"The infected produce excess value through their labor, but they don't receive equivalent compensation. Is this right? It's not just the infected; ordinary civilians are also experiencing this unequal pay and pay. This is wrong, and I want to change it. Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals is committed to improving the situation of the infected. This is not empty talk. We will build a factory here to tangibly improve the treatment and situation of the infected."
This was the main core idea behind Si Ye's establishment of the Star Sea Empire. He had always firmly believed in a world where giving was rewarding.
But on the Terra continent, the Terra countries are considered to be the epitome of the dregs of human beings in the previous life. There is no problem in making up dozens of weird small countries with various political systems of poor quality.
Si Ye didn't clean up the surface directly because of his greedy beast-eared mother, but even if he avoided cleaning, he couldn't avoid transformation. It was only a matter of time before the concept of the Star Sea Empire was implemented throughout the entire continent.
But in the eyes of Xinteleya, a native, Si Ye's words were full of shock, and the disproportion between effort and reward made her deeply sympathetic. However, she was not a clear-eyed college student who had just entered society. Having been tortured by society for so many years, she naturally knew how much waves Si Ye's actions would cause and how many enemies he would attract.
Given Xinteleya's current philosophy of wanting to live a quiet life, she should stay away from people like Si Ye who will definitely cause a lot of trouble.
But for some unknown reason, Xinteleya suddenly said, "You'll make a lot of enemies by doing this. At least the Commercial Association won't be willing to give up its profits to the workers and wage earners."
"Whether they are willing or not has nothing to do with me. No matter where you are, strength is the most fundamental principle. If they are unwilling, then I will find someone who is willing. If no one is willing, I will force them to agree."
Xinteleya originally wanted to remind people of the powerful influence of the Siye Commercial Union, but when she saw the synthetic people walking past her, she suddenly fell silent again.
The strength Si Ye showed was that he was not a pushover, so what he said was really maybe, probably, or possible?
"Well, Miss Xinteleya, are you interested in switching jobs and working for me?"
Xinteleya subconsciously wanted to nod in agreement, but her past social experiences brought her back to her senses, and she could only shake her head awkwardly.
"Don't tease me, I'm just a small worker in the Wuzhou Alliance. I can't help you with anything."
Si Ye shrugged and did not make things difficult for Xinteleya. After all, Xinteleya also had family and friends in Casimir. Such a major event that sounded like it could be decided in a few words.
