Guild Boss's Ambition

Rooftop, sun, red bean buns, honey lemon...

This is probably my favorite daily routine in this different world.

However, I didn't feel comfortable at all at this time.

Even a little anxious.

Because the person who was responsible for protecting me during this period of time was a half-dragon who was in the early childhood.

That’s right! It’s that Xuanxun!

Although his mental age is only about twelve years old, this half-dragon man's mind is full of thoughts about having a girlfriend. When I was twelve years old, I didn't have such lustful thoughts as him. I usually had to deal with school work, and if I also had to take care of my younger sister Wulan, I would be extremely busy. How could I have the leisure time to talk about love?

but……

There are exceptions to everything, like the twelve-year-old loli Gu Shan who has recently become completely obsessed with Senior Annie.

However, even though I don't reject premature love and homosexuality, I will not allow myself to fall in love with a man.

It’s a pity that no matter how cold I act, Xuanxun will still stick to me.

What's more, he is currently my bodyguard, which means I have no excuse to drive him away.

"I say, Miss Lannon, are you really not going to consider me?"

This was almost a daily routine every time we met. No matter how many times he failed, Xuanxun would persist in his pursuit of love. Even if he hit a wall, he didn't feel any pain. I even vaguely felt that he had a kind of silly energy that wanted to break through the wall. If I were a girl from the beginning, I might really fall in love with him.

Facing him like this, I had to take a more resolute attitude: "You have good conditions, but I really don't like you. To put it bluntly, I don't like boys, so please give up this idea!"

After hearing my reasons, his handsome and childish face showed a puzzled expression: "Why do you like girls, Miss Lan Nong? Generally speaking, shouldn't girls like young and promising men like me?"

"Then why do you like girls?" I asked him back.

Xuan Xun immediately gave a positive answer: "Because girls are beautiful creatures, and among all the girls I have seen in my 24 years of dragon life, Miss Lan Nong, you are the most gentle and mature! You are like the brightest star in the night, the most beautiful flower among the flowers, and you are also rich in wisdom that mortals lack!"

I used his answer to explain, "You said it yourself, girls are beautiful creatures, so why is it strange that I like girls? On the other hand, if I have something beautiful but don't love it, and instead fall in love with something that doesn't match my own aesthetic standards, that would be a strange thing, right?"

"I see……"

Xuan Xun thought seriously and said, "In other words, it is natural for a girl to like another girl?"

In order to avoid turning the young half-dragon into a lesbian, I quickly added, "Having said that, most girls in this world are probably more inclined to like boys. After all, from an anthropological perspective, girls are born with a competitive mentality. Coupled with social opinion, the chances of them liking the same sex are even lower."

"It turns out that Miss Lan Nong likes girls..."

Xuan Xun sighed in disappointment, and the next second, the half-dragon raised his eyes as if he had a flash of inspiration, and said a very explosive hypothesis: "But! If I change from a boy to a girl, then, Miss Lan Nong, would you be more likely to like me? If that's the case──"

I immediately stopped his wild thoughts.

Although I encourage Miss Krollo to change herself and pursue Stallone, on the other hand, I don't want more Miss Krollo to appear in the world. If a love relationship cannot even cross the barrier of gender, then how can it be a life-long relationship? How can it be eternal and great? How can a person who is obsessed with gender be worthy of your changing gender to love?

"That's enough! I'm not worthy of you doing that for me! If I really loved you, I would find a way to accept all your shortcomings instead of just yelling that you're a boy and telling you to give up! Also, your skeleton is a boy's skeleton. Even if you cut it off, it will definitely not be as pretty as Miss K'lolo!"

However, the logic I said seemed to have only dug a hole for myself.

"I understand! Miss Lannong! I will continue to try my best to pursue you in a masculine way!"

"Wait! I'm not encouraging you! Give up on this idea right now!"

Just when I was about to instill correct ideas in the young man Xuanxun, a terrible loud noise suddenly came from the sky!

Boom boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!

The sound was like thunder, and it hit people's eardrums like waves.

I looked towards the source of the sound in surprise and was surprised to find that many huge rocks were scattered all over the sky.

"What...what is that..." I murmured.

"The high elves' siege tactics!" Xuan Xun said gritting his teeth, with a magic wand in his hand.

The boulder in the sky was terrifyingly huge. About 800 meters north of the stone house was the Temple of Life and Death, a complex of several temples. However, the boulder in the sky was much stronger and more powerful than it, as if a meteorite had landed on the planet. The boulder covered the entire temple right before our eyes.

Boom! Boom!

Amid the wailing of the earth, a landscape that I loved was destroyed by war, leaving only a meteorite as big as a hill.

However, the story does not end there.

There are more and denser stones in the sky!

Because of the huge rocks in the sky that seemed like the end of the world, the whole city let out a wail of fear.

But despite the wailing, where could the people in the city escape to under this almost overwhelming attack?

There is nowhere to escape, even the temple will be completely crushed by the huge rocks. Even if you escape underground, you will be at risk of being buried alive.

My thoughts were racing, but the huge rock from the sky was falling without any room for maneuver.

v=gt

Even if air resistance is taken into account, these boulders would not violate the law of gravity.

Unless a miracle happens in this world, unless magic exists in this world.

this world……

There is magic.

Ding-ding ...

The bells in the southern bell tower rang, and the bells in the entire city rang at the same time. The tone of the bells was full of mythical atmosphere, and the sound of metal and stone clashing seemed to be the call of the people. Suddenly, at a critical moment, a gray-white giant shadow appeared in the center of the city. The giant was naked, neither male nor female, like the incarnation of the angry gods and Buddhas.

【drink! 】

The giant shouted heavily.

It’s not entirely true to say it was a sound.

Because that was not the sound of air particles vibrating and heard by the ears, but a wave that shook something in our hearts. If I was not mistaken, the thing that was shaken was probably the soul that Bai Ye often talked about. Also because of the shout of the phantom giant, the boulder that was originally going to fall and destroy the city stopped.

It was as if time had stopped. They froze in the air in strange postures, then slowly shrank and disappeared.

Seeing this, Xuan Xun suddenly shouted excitedly: "Success!"

Judging from Xuanxun's tone, he seemed to know something about the giant.

I asked, "What's going on?"

Xuan Xun replied complacently, "In fact, the war mission that we, the Tree of Life, are responsible for this time is to resist this wave of siege meteorites thrown by the mountain giants. It is for this reason that we have to rent bell tower buildings in the city and use the bell sound combined with the power of the magic array to summon the power of the demigod giant Philes to resist the attack of the mountain giants."

"Does that mean we are safe now?"

Xuan Xun shook his head, regaining his focused expression, and looked into the distance and said, "Not yet. The power of the demigod Files only blocked the first wave of attacks. To completely stop the mountain giants on the side of the high elves, we must completely knock them down. Even if we can't knock them down, we must at least restrict their actions."

I speculated and asked, "Do you have people sniping mountain giants outside the city?"

Xuan Xun looked up at the sky, as if waiting for something, and answered, "We thought of this arrangement at first, but after careful calculation, we found that the mountain giants have too wide a range and are likely to be behind the high elves. The conclusion is that we have no way to bypass most of the enemy and attack the mountain giants in the back row."

"Then what are you going to do?"

Hearing this, Xuan Xun raised his arm and pointed to the sky, sneering and saying, "A tooth for a tooth, a stone for a stone."

I looked in the direction Xuanxun pointed, and saw that there were suddenly seventeen crystal spears in the sky. Just by looking at them, I knew that the spears were filled with magic power. Due to the gathering of powerful magic power, the images near the spears were also slightly distorted. That was the overflow effect caused by the overload on the magic side to the real side.

Each of these seventeen crystal spears has the effect of a forbidden spell, and is like an alien version of a missile.

Just as I was amazed, Xuan Xun slowly introduced: "This is our answer to the high elves. When the mountain stone people threw the rocks, our people also calculated their position and distance. Now as long as we throw these spears, I believe the mountain giants on the other side of the battlefield will..."

It's too late to say, then soon!

Before Xuan Xun could finish his explanation, the giant spear in the sky shot out and disappeared into the vast sky.

After a long time, the giant above the city disappeared, and no more huge rocks from the other side of the sky fell on the city.

It seems that the spear designed by the Tree of Life has successfully played its ideal role.

"How did you know the mountain giants would launch this attack?" I asked.

……

……

71. Unfinished Offensive (Little Blue)

(Ulu-Lannon)

"How did you know the mountain giants would launch this attack?" I asked.

"I don't know either. The adults in the guild are always mysterious." Xuan Xun replied with a shrug.

Judging from Xuan Xun's tone, he seems to have not gone deep into the Tree of Life Guild, and is just a thug who follows the instructions of his superiors. Of course, this does not mean that he is not valued by the guild. This may be partly due to his psychological age that never grows up. How can a young master like him who only thinks about eating, drinking and having fun every day, give orders at the conference table?

However, even though he was unable to penetrate the inner workings of the guild, Xuan Xun already knew more than I did.

He continued to look up at the sky and said calmly: "Miss Lannon, although the mountain giants' attack has stopped, our city of Mopolis will not be at peace for some time to come. If we continue to stay in such a conspicuous position, both you and I are likely to become the enemy's target. Therefore, we'd better go back indoors──"

Under Xuanxun's escort, I quickly left the rooftop.

"Becoming the enemy's target? What does that mean?"

"According to our intelligence, in addition to the mountain giants' offensive, the high elves have also taken further actions against the residents in the city. According to Helena's analysis, the high elves have given up the idea of ​​a complete victory in this war. The goal of this siege is to create fear, to disintegrate the forces of the adventurers, and to sow the seeds of suspicion among the civilians."

According to Xuanxun, Helena of the Tree of Life also seemed to think that the war would end in the short term.

but……

"Xuanxun, what further actions are you talking about?"

"Airborne troops."

Xuan Xun said in a fearful tone: "The high elves are planning to disperse their elite troops and airdrop them to various places in Mopolis City. Although our intelligence personnel have insight into their plan, they do not know the specific location and method of their airdrop. In other words, from this moment on, they may appear beside us at any time."

I was immediately shocked: "Why did you say this only now? You should have told us all about this a long time ago!"

Xuan Xun whispered aggrievedly: "Master Jacob didn't say anything, how dare I tell you secretly..."

Come to think of it, at this critical juncture, even if I were Xuanxun, it would be impossible for them to reveal the intelligence of the high elves to our Stone House. If we accidentally leaked the news, the high elves would most likely change their plan temporarily, thus making us lose the best opportunity to destroy the enemy's mountain giant troops.

"Okay, okay! I understand your position, but now we have to inform everyone about this matter immediately!"

After learning about the high elves' plan, I took Xuanxun and quickly walked to the second floor and went straight to the president's office.

With a click, I opened the door to the president's office.

Meng'er and Bai Ye inside the door turned around and cast a wary look in my direction. At this moment, they were both sitting close to the window, and it seemed that they were discussing the battle just now.

Seeing me in a hurry, Meng Er asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Xiao Lan?"

Without further ado, I immediately told him the information Xuanxun had provided: "The Tree of Life knew about the High Elves' plan for today. In addition to the Stonemen's siege, I heard that an airborne force would come to our city!"

Hearing this, Meng'er calmly asked Xuanxun: "Is everything Xiaolan said true?"

Xuan Xun no longer concealed it and admitted, "It's true."

"When will the airborne troops be deployed? Where? How many soldiers will they have?"

"We don't know the exact time and location, but their combat power is at least at the elite level."

At this time, Bai Ye proposed an extremely bold hypothesis: "The so-called elite level is all legendary level, not platinum level or gold level. They will be scattered throughout the city. It is estimated that the main targets will be the areas where civilians and nobles live, and then the commercial areas. Their goal is to undermine the people's hearts in this city."

At this point, our Miss President did not bicker with Bai Ye as usual, but only focused on the current crisis and every detail, and asked: "So, what about our Adventurer's Guild? What are the chances that the High Elves will attack our Stone House and other Adventurer's Guilds? Xuanxun, what do you say about the Tree of Life?"

Xuan Xun added: "They said that the high elves are targeting civilians and adventurers."

Bai Ye frowned deeply because of Xuan Xun's answer, and said, "In this case, Lila, who we have been waiting for for a long time, will probably appear soon. But the problem is that if a high elf happens to appear in the stone house, how should we allocate manpower? You know, even if there is only one high elf, our stone house may be completely destroyed."

Meng'er thought for a while and said, "Let Master Jacob guard the high elves' side?"

Xuan Xun immediately expressed his doubts fiercely: "What about Miss Lan Nong? Without Master Jacob, we will be one point less powerful to fight against Bai Ye's half body. Besides, our mission is to protect Miss Lan Nong, not just to be the exclusive mercenaries of your Stone House. If you want to deal with the high elves who are resisting the attack, you should use your own strength!"

"Xuanxun, what you said makes sense, but..." I analyzed worriedly, "After deducting the three of you, we only have two platinum-level adventurers left in the Stone House, Bai Ye and Raftan. Even if we can unite the forces of the Stone House and concentrate our firepower, I'm afraid we will have to sacrifice many precious lives."

Meng Er suggested, "Or maybe we should hide Xiao Lan for a while."

Bai Ye disagreed and said, "If Lila can't find Uru, she will shift her target to other innocent people."

Meng'er then proposed another direction of thinking: "Is there a way to prevent the high elves from finding us?"

Bai Ye looked at Xuan Xun, smiled maliciously and said, "Perhaps we can try to attract the attacking high elves to the Tree of Life, but considering the side effects, I personally do not recommend this approach. Of course, if we think optimistically, those high elves may not look down on our shabby guild."

Woo ya──

While we were hiding in the guild to discuss, we suddenly heard bursts of angry roars of golden eagles outside the window.

After hearing these noises, everyone in the president's office changed their expressions.
