Uncle, I am not an ordinary office worker.

Seeing that Roy didn't answer, Charney smiled slightly. He had expected that it would be normal for Roy to deny the sudden news.

But this is the truth, Roy's disguise is indeed very good, but some of his actions cannot deceive people.

Since his debut, he has been using the "Three No's" principle. Ordinary people only think he is another admirer of the Knight of Glory, but they don't think he is just paving the way for the future. Then he used this sign to contact Maria Linguang. Normal people only think Maria Linguang is a child, but children are often the most important and most easily overlooked resources. In Victoria, there are many nobles or businessmen who train their children to be spies who steal and transmit intelligence. Then, he used Maria Linguang to contact Mainna Linguang and pass on the news of the Supervisory Council and the Knights of War. This is the most secretive, because the way of transmission is through word of mouth between relatives, and almost no one can catch their handle.

What confirmed that Charney's guess was correct was the destruction of the Linguang mansion. The newspapers reported extensively that this was the beginning of the feud between Maenna Linguang and Roy, but this was only the first layer. A slightly more professional person could sense something was wrong through Maenna's subsequent visit to the Supervisory Committee and the Business Federation to withdraw the lawsuit against Roy, but this was only the second layer. Charney saw the third layer, that Roy must have passed on some very important information to Maenna, so he had to destroy the mansion to destroy the scene and keep it completely secret!

Otherwise, how to explain that the Lightless Knight, who had been silent for more than ten years, started to be active during this period of time, not only quitting his job and taking an advance on his salary, but also began to frequently go to various places?

He said he was raising funds to rebuild Linguang House, but who would believe him?

The Knights of War and the Supervisory Council were about to make a move, Charne was certain of this. And Roy was the hidden pawn of the Supervisory Council, waiting for a surprise attack, but he didn't expect to be seen through by himself.

Now is the best opportunity to persuade Roy to defect and make him work for you. Not only can you turn the tables on the Supervisory Council, but you can also gain more power for yourself in the Chamber of Commerce.

On the other hand, Roy really couldn't understand the deep meaning of Charne's words, so he could only deny it: "But I'm not a knight of war."

Charne had anticipated this and was about to speak, but before he could say anything, the phone on the table rang.

Charne glanced at the caller ID and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

You really can't help it.

Charney pressed the answer button and the hands-free button, turned the phone around, pointed it in Roy's direction, and said, "Hello, this is the Special Tournament Organizing Committee Office."

"Hello, I'm calling to ask if there is a knight named Roy in your area?"

Caller ID: Office of the Grand Knight Commander of the Supervisory Council.

Volume 1: Chapter 44 Large-scale mission: The Knight Competition Special Tournament begins!

"Hello, I'm calling to ask if there is a knight named Roy in your area?"

In the Grand Knight's office, Russell watched the live broadcast of the Knights' Special Championship on the projection screen and called the tournament organizing committee.

The busy tone on the other end of the phone did not last long. Soon, Charney answered:

"Yes, sir, may I ask who you are?"

"You can call me Russell."

Charne's pupils suddenly contracted, and when he looked up at Roy, his expression became more serious and cautious.

Russell, this simple name is rarely mentioned anymore, and people more often call the lady with this name - Grand Knight of the Casimir Council!

Today, the situation in Casimir has become quite clear. The Chamber of Commerce and the Supervisory Council are in confrontation and mutual check and balance. The Supervisory Council is backed by the Knights Templar who guard the borders and fight against foreign enemies, while the Chamber of Commerce is backed by the general public and capitalists who have benefited greatly from the social changes.

The capitalists actually stand with the people. This may sound a bit black humor, but this is the fact. Rather than being slaves who have the power of life and death over feudal lords, more people would rather be citizens secretly exploited by capitalists. This is progress.

However, even though the Supervisory Council has gradually fallen behind in the political struggle, the Commercial Union has no ability to destroy the Supervisory Council in one fell swoop - after all, they still control the most elite military forces in Casimir and have the purest and most powerful military power. The Commercial Union dare not distribute crossbows and swords to ordinary people, otherwise if the last one overthrows the Supervisory Council, they will be the next one to be hung on the street lamp. This is why the Commercial Union has only been secretly wooing and corrupting the Knights of War so far.

Unbreakable alliances are often broken from within.

And at such a time of undercurrents and mutual struggle, the Grand Knight Commander actually took the initiative to call them and inquire about the news of a new competitive knight. Even a fool could see that they were sending a very simple signal - Roy is our man and very important to us, so we advise you not to act rashly.

Charnet bit his lip. If he were in Russell's position, he would never call the Business Union to guarantee a person just because an ordinary war knight was exposed. The war knights are to the Supervisory Council just like the No Heroes Alliance is to the Business Union. There are so many of them. Even if Roy is exposed and eliminated, he can easily choose one or more replacements and infiltrate the competition knights and the Union as informants in a similar way. There is no need to take risks for him.

But Russell did just that.

What does this mean?

Charne took a deep breath. He originally thought that Roy was at most a capable knight selected by a knight group, but now he had to change his mind. Roy's identity must be more complicated than he imagined. Is he a descendant of an ancient knight family? Or is he a squire of a knight with great achievements? Otherwise, Russell had no reason to ask about it personally.

There was no time for Charne to think too much, so he could only speak first to calm Russell down: "It turns out to be His Excellency the Grand Knight Commander. May I ask if you have anything to do with Knight Roy?"

As if he heard the tentative tone in Charne's words, Russell raised his eyebrows thoughtfully and said:

"Don't be nervous, spokesman. I'm just curious. The Special Championship is a grand event held every three years in Casimir. Such a mistake happened at the opening ceremony. Don't you allow an old lady like me to express my concern?"

"Of course, thank you for your concern." Charne said, "Knight Roy is next to me now, waiting to supplement his background information. Do you have anything to convey to him? I can give him the phone number."

What's wrong with this guy? I didn't say anything, why does he sound so suspicious?

Russell glanced at the call display in surprise and confirmed that he was calling the organizing committee office, not a paranoid patient in the West Third District Psychiatric Hospital.

She did have some questions she wanted to ask Roy in person, but conveying them over the phone was obviously not a good way to do it. She paused and said:

"No need to give it to him, just turn on the speaker and I'll just say a few words."

Want to use this method to distance herself from the matter? No, this method is obviously a cover-up. That's right, Roy should have understood what she wanted to say when she made the call.

Old fox.

Without much interest, Charne pressed the hands-free button and placed the phone on the table. The Grand Knight Commander's kind yet dignified voice came from the phone:

"Knight Roy, I'm sorry that our first communication cannot take place in person. I'm very interested in you."

Roy nodded with a subtle expression. Although he knew why Russell said this, it was a bit strange to be told "interested" by a woman who was probably two or three times older than him. Especially since this woman was not a 9th level immortal like Kal'tsit.

However, Roy still knew how to act. He immediately replied, "Sir, Grand Knight Commander, please don't say that. You have always been a role model for the Knights of Casimir. When I was a child, my parents would always mention you when they told me the story of the golden Pegasus on the plains."

"So, this is why you offered to become Lin Guang's tutor?" Russell didn't mind being flattered, but asked back with a smile on his face.

Roy shook his head and said, "Ms. Maria took the initiative to hire me, and, hey, wasn't I suspended indefinitely?"

"Huh? Why?"

"A tutor also needs a family. How can I be a tutor if I don't have a family?" Roy said with a smile.

Russell actually laughed out loud, and even his merits were lost along with the laughter.

After laughing, she gathered her emotions and commented, "You are quite humorous, young man. It's hard to imagine that a person of Maenna's character would think highly of you."

"I didn't realize he was optimistic about me. If I hadn't gotten Stella, I would have been cut in half with just one strike of the sword." Roy complained in his heart, but he kept smiling and said nothing.

After chatting, Russell nodded with satisfaction.

This guy is very slick, or to put it more accurately, he is very smooth. He is very careful with his words and can make jokes. He doesn't seem like the kind of person who would fight to the death for some purpose. This kind of personality can't be said to be good or bad, but it is definitely the most suitable for Casimir now.

The most important thing is that with his current personality, he will go further and more easily than the Knight of Glory. Russell has this hunch.

I suddenly thought of that child again. I wonder where she is now or how she is doing.

Russell sighed softly so that the sound would not be transmitted to the microphone and said:

"I feel relieved to see that you are still in high spirits. Knight Roy, don't feel any psychological pressure because of what happened today. Just go for the game. After all, the Casimir Knight Competition Special Tournament is fair, am I right?"

"Of course." Roy nodded affirmatively and glanced at Charne.

How could Charne not guess what Russell meant? This sentence was not directed at Roy, but at him and the business association behind him.

With this guarantee, who would dare to use those shady little tricks against Roy?

But what could Charney do? He was just taking over the mess of McGee temporarily, and he had done his best to deal with it. Now that the Grand Knight's order had been passed down, he could only smile and agree: "Of course, the organizing committee will do its best to ensure that the competition is conducted in a fair, just and open manner according to the rules."

Russell then nodded and promised: "Okay, I'm looking forward to it."

"Thank you, thank you." Charne said politely.

Russell paused and asked, "When is Roy's next game?"

Charne's smile froze. What did that mean? It was obvious that he didn't trust them and was going to supervise it personally and put some eye drops on them.

He could only truthfully announce: "The competition schedule is published on the official website. The first two rounds will be the points round and the knockout round. As a new knight, Roy does not have enough points, so he needs to participate in the points round first and then the knockout round. Therefore, his first match will be tomorrow."

"Then I'll wait and see."

The Grand Knight Commander said softly and hung up the phone.

Charney raised his head and glanced at Roy, seeming to want to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he gritted his teeth and shook his head, saying, "Go away."

"what?"

"Go ahead. Whenever you want to talk to me, I'll be waiting here." Charne turned around and rarely wanted to light a cigarette.

"Uh..." However, Roy still didn't move.

Charne asked impatiently, "What? You're not going to leave?"

"Don't I still need to fill out a form?" Roy asked, looking sideways at the Knights Association staff who were peering out of the door and window. "They've been waiting outside for a long time, so why don't you let them in?"

"......"

Looking at Roy's expression of trying not to laugh, Charne wanted to scold him: You are still pretending even at this point, don't I know what kind of person you are?

But he saw through it but didn't say anything. He could only glare at Roy fiercely and said, "Come on! I'll help you fill it up!"

Roy immediately clasped his fists in thanks, trotted to open the door, and left: "Thank you very much."

Charne doesn't like him, and he's too lazy to stay here.

However, just as I stepped out of the door, the system's new task reminder sounded in my ears.

Volume 1: Remarks on the launch (Come and take a look)

In the blink of an eye, it’s that time again. This book will be officially on the shelves tomorrow!

Ever since my last book was ganked, I once thought about not wanting to write books anymore, but in the end I didn’t give up and decided to try again.

I encountered many troubles and problems when writing this book. First there was an earthquake, then acute gastroenteritis, and then a heavy-duty ban for a month. I finally made it to now and was about to put it on the shelves, but then the epidemic broke out and Mercury retrograde occurred, which I couldn't avoid anyway, and I passed away.

I feel sleepy and have a cough, but I don’t have a high fever. However, it’s really uncomfortable to be trapped in the room.

But no matter what, in the end, I persisted!

On sale tomorrow!

Starting tomorrow, we will enter the first major plot - the 23rd Casimir Knights Special Tournament. The special tournament is divided into points tournament, elimination tournament, team tournament, top 16, top 8, semi-finals, and the final! As an invited knight who does not meet the requirements, Roy will fight his way through the special tournament from the points tournament, from the lowest to the highest!

At the same time, the already laid Leithania line, the Cavalry and Hunter line, and the Victoria line will all begin to be laid after the game is over. The encounter with Rhodes Island is also about to begin.

The special modules obtained from large-scale missions were also carefully selected by me. Unfortunately, if the brothers’ posts were not banned, I would really like to see all kinds of magical posts from my brothers.

Since I can't see any feedback anyway, I won't write too many spoilers. It will be on the shelves tomorrow. Please subscribe, please subscribe, please subscribe. Just wait and see!

Volume 1: Chapter 45: Besieging Roy? (Subscribe)

On October 1094, 10, Casimir and the four cities merged, and the Grand Knight led Cavalelia.

9:00 AM

Lieyang Arena, the scene of the points competition.

The passionate war songs have sounded, the atmosphere among the audience has heated up, and accompanied by the passionate drum beats of the band, facing people's expectant gazes and warm cheers, the knights participating in the points race have entered the venue one after another.

The special tournament points competition adopts a challenge system, that is, people with lower points can challenge people with higher points to obtain their points. This competition system is very cruel, which means that all the points accumulated by the knights participating in the points competition during the three years of preparation for the special tournament may change hands in one battle and become the property of others, and the knights who lose points will be eliminated directly. But it also makes sense. If a knight participating in the points competition is strong enough, there will not be too many people who challenge him - after all, this is a game that gambles on one's future, and not many people will really think of trying to shake a tree with an ant.

This has created a situation that is very similar to today's Casimir society: upper-level knights with a lot of points can watch the fire from the other side of the river and the fight between tigers, while lower-level knights need to participate in a large number of competitions due to lack of points, and because their points are also being swept away by other lower-level knights, they have to race against time, thus falling into a vicious circle and can only constantly squeeze themselves.

An anonymous Casimir Helmless Alliance Blue Gold Leader once taught his young Platinum apprentice: "At least they still have a deadline, which is the end of the points competition. Casimir's social life is still long and there is no end in sight." At that time, he never imagined that one day he would have to join this game of internal competition, and start from the lowest level.

In fact, the points Roy has now are not a small number for a knight who has debuted for just over a month. Defeating the Rusted Bronze Knight and the Candle Knight both brought him a lot of points. However, the objects of comparison for these points are other opponents who have been preparing for three years to enter the main stage of the special championship. Points can only be counted in quantity but not in quality. After the comparison, Roy's points are naturally not enough.

This means that if he wants to advance, he will undoubtedly have the most games to play.

"Looks like you're busy."

Roy sighed. With his current record, could he really find an opponent willing to compete with him?

The worries were not dispelled until the referee announced the official start of the points challenge. As it turned out, Roy was completely wrong.

Looking at the large number of knights who surrounded him in an instant, the corners of Roy's mouth rose slightly.

Roy laughed, and the other knights participating in the points race naturally laughed too. They were not afraid of Roy competing with them, but they were afraid that Roy would get scared and run away secretly.

They have long wanted to "revenge" Roy!

Today, the knight industry has been successfully deconstructed in Casimir into a profession that is no different from a salesman or an accountant, rather than a status that symbolizes lofty honor. Most people who participate in the competitive knight industry do not have the great ambition of "lighting up the world" like Margaret Linguang, they just want to make money, make more money, and make their lives better.
