Uncle, I am not an ordinary office worker.

Fortunately, this awkward silence did not last long. The door of the joint meeting hall was knocked, and Charne's voice came from outside the door: "Sorry..."

Before he could finish his words, the directors inside the door looked at each other and nodded:

"It's just in time. It's him."

PS: Today's symptoms include repeated fever, cough, and nasal congestion. I wake up after two hours of sleep, and fall asleep uncontrollably anytime and anywhere.

PS: As to why the four-city fuse only required turning off a switch, I have no idea. YJ set it up this way. Even in the original plot, the power was cut off in just one place, the Hongsongchong Building.

I was unconscious due to fever. I went back to check the plot and found that it was the Wuzhan Alliance that caused the explosion. Sorry.

Volume 1: Can't get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day

Can’t get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day, can’t get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day, can’t get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day, can’t get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day, can’t get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day, can’t get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day, can’t get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day, can’t get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day, can’t get out of bed, the most uncomfortable day.

I tried typing by voice, but Trump made so many typos that I had to type by hand, but that didn't work. Let's see if I can recover tomorrow. Didn't the official announcement say that it would be the most uncomfortable for four or five days, and then it would slowly recover? I hope.

I'm so sorry for the delay.

Volume 1: Obituaries

2022年12月25日，星期日，上午10：26分我最亲爱的爷爷还是因为新冠肺炎离开了。永远怀念。

This is the worst day of my life.

People are very powerless in the face of illness. I was brought up by my grandfather, and I was by his side during his final moments, for twenty years.

The new coronavirus is not really a cold. Behind those so-called "dry food beads" and "academic master beads" is the grief of the funeral home being packed with people, and some even have to queue up until the 27th to enter to pay their respects.

I felt physically nauseous.

May there be no disease in heaven, and may there really be an afterlife on earth.

I will miss him forever, and as long as I remember him, he will never truly die.

Sincerely, a moment of silence.

Volume 1: To be updated tomorrow.

On the 30th, I finally finished all the things. I will take a day off today. I will resume updating tomorrow.

It’s a new year again in the blink of an eye. We have all experienced a lot in the past year. Tonight is New Year’s Eve. I hope everyone will have a good rest, spend time with their families, and everything will be fine in the coming year!

happy new year!

Volume 1: Chapter 111 This is my escape route

"I originally thought that the knights of the Supervisory Council should be the ones to shut down the energy control device. But when I arrived at the gate of the Supervisory Council in person, I realized that I must have been wrong."

In the future, Charner will always sigh like this when he recalls what happened that night. What kind of scene was that?

Holding a sharp blade immersed in light, Tianma casually swung out a sword energy like a rain curtain. The rapier in the hand of the Grand Knight Russell, who had not personally fought for more than ten years, flew, stabbing the enemy like a torrential rain. Opposite the two of them, a girl with white hair and red eyes wielded a black iron heavy sword that was almost as tall as her, opening and closing it, blocking the attacks that almost cut her in two.

Although the girl's face showed signs of fatigue, Charne had no doubt that she still had some strength left. If she continued to hold on, it would take at least ten minutes of fierce fighting for Mainna and Russell to subdue her.

Compared to the two parties who were fighting but still unscathed, the Supervisory Council building behind them was not so lucky. The sword marks and holes made the building look like the ruins of a battlefield in the Bolivarian Civil War or an unknown ruin in the Columbian Frontier. Charne even felt that when the staff of the Supervisory Council came to work tomorrow, they would wonder if they had not woken up and walked the wrong way, and accidentally walked to a place like Block 0.

"Damn, how did the Supervisory Committee end up like this? Who is that woman?"

The unexpected events tonight had exceeded Charney's imagination. Even a gentleman like him couldn't help but swear. Looking at the current situation, neither Manna nor Russell had the energy to explain the blackout to him. After thinking for a moment, Charney took out his cell phone, turned on the camera, and pressed the shutter in the direction of the battlefield.

It is a common problem among modern people that they can't help but take a few pictures when they see a lively scene, not to mention that this is a rare battle between two masters of Casimir and a mysterious man. When the power is restored and the video is posted online, it will be an explosive topic to say the least.

Of course, Charne was not completely idle. Those directors sent him here, so he had to give an explanation. He didn't dare to rush into the war zone now. Who knows, tomorrow's headline might be that the spokesperson died of an unknown AOE? But he had to leave some evidence to prove that he had been here and found some clues about the blackout.

These photos and videos are what he handed in.

Looking at the mysterious girl who was fighting and retreating and Mainna who was trying to chase her, Charne frowned and looked towards the building with the door of the Supervisory Council wide open, and a bold idea came to his mind.

On the other side, Skadi was already planning to retreat.

The lights around them had gone dark, which meant that Roy's plan had been successful. Although there were a few unexpected things during the process, she had finally accomplished her mission of holding Maina back.

The next step was to retreat quickly, which she was good at, but getting rid of Mainna was not an easy task.

Mainna and Russell had obviously noticed the power outage, but unlike Russell, he didn't care much about the possible consequences of the power outage. When Russell was about to stop and return to the prison to check the situation, he continued to attack.

This ranger from Casimir was very strong. In Skadi's eyes, although he was not as strong as her captain Ulpian, and not as fast as the second captain Goletia, he was far better than any landman she had seen in recent times. Even among deep-sea hunters, he must be considered one of the top ones. And he had not even received Agor's body transformation. He had reached his current level purely by relying on his own training and the so-called "originium skills" of landmen. This was truly amazing. If it weren't for special circumstances, she would have liked to talk to Marnardo about how he had raised his strength to such a level.

Unfortunately, it was not the right time. Time did not allow her to delay. She had more important things to do, such as looking for other deep-sea hunters who might still be alive.

"Excuse me, can you please let me go?"

Skadi whispered. Mauna sneered. At this time, you want to leave? There is no such good thing.

The sharp blade in his hand glowed brightly again, and Maenna slashed out a blade of light, slashing directly at the black iron heavy sword in Skadi's hand. Skadi immediately raised the heavy sword to try to block it, but this time, as soon as the heavy sword touched the light blade, a crisp sound rang in Skadi's ears.

"Click."

A clear crack appeared at the gap where the black iron heavy sword touched the light blade, and then, like a broken dam, the light poured in like a flood, instantly expanding the gap into a crack that ran through the entire blade! The next second, before Skadi could react, the black iron heavy sword was cut in half, and the light blade that penetrated it hit her chest directly, knocking her back and crashing into the street in the distance.

"Well!"

Although she had been weakened by the blocking of the heavy black iron sword, being hit directly by the light blade still made Skadi feel a fishy taste in her throat. Fortunately, she forced herself to hold it back and swallowed the blood foam back into her stomach. She quickly stood up, with only the hilt of the broken sword left in her hand.

Weapons on land are so fragile.

This was the first time she encountered a situation where she was injured because the weapon could not withstand the sustained attack. After complaining in dissatisfaction in her heart, Skadi looked at the sewer manhole cover in the dark.

It seems there is no need to fight any further, this place seems to be able to be used as an escape route.

.........

Casimir Knights Special Tournament, final scene.

The sea of ​​blood has disappeared, and the Blood Knight Dikaiopolis collapsed to the ground with his limbs spread out, his eyes wide open looking at the sky above his head, with an incredible look on his face.

What was incredible was not his defeat, but the brief scene just now, the magnificent sight of the knight riding a Pegasus descending from the sky.

He was not a Casimir, but as a warrior from Minos, he attached more importance to legends and myths than anyone else. The moment the legendary scene of a warrior riding a Pegasus came into reality and appeared before him, he was convinced.

Looking up at the sky full of stars above the arena, he was even a little dazed for a moment. In the past, such stars could not exist in Casimir. The neon lights in the sky had long obscured their light. Could all this in front of him now be an illusion?

"Huh, it looks like they succeeded."

Roy's voice came from his ear, and he looked relieved. The sudden appearance of Rosinant just now really scared him. He had never ridden a horse in his life, not to mention that he was a horse in this life. The feeling of Machima swooping down from the sky was even more exciting than a roller coaster.

Roller coasters also have seat belts.

"Are you OK."

Looking at the Blood Knight who tilted his head towards him, Roy sighed helplessly, smiled, and extended his hand to him.

"Can you still stand up?"

"Not really. I'm waiting for the stretcher, sir." Dikaiopolis smiled and shook his head. "You really can keep it a secret."

Roy knew what he was referring to. He scratched his head and said, "Everyone has their own reasons. Just like you, aren't you fighting so hard for your fellow infected people?"

Dikaiopolis was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Roy to know that, but he reacted immediately - if he knew that he could be blocked in block 0, how could he not know the purpose of his participation in the competition?

Thinking of this, Dikaiopolis couldn't help but ask curiously: "What about you? What is your purpose? Is it really for Miss Yao Knight?"

"No!" Roy frowned and shook his head.

If he has any purpose, does the boss's mission count?

But saying this now is somewhat unemotional. Roy considered his words and said:

"Because of someone's dream (my boss asked me to do this)."

Dikaiopolis's eyebrows twitched, he rolled his eyes, and couldn't help but complain in his heart: "Isn't this still for the sake of the Knight Yao?"

People nowadays are so thin-skinned. What about that person? Can't you be more straightforward?

Under normal circumstances, he would have to give Roy, a stranger, some advice on the happy buffalo's love philosophy, but now, he was almost fainting and really didn't have the mood, so he could only change the subject and say:

"I seem to be hallucinating. I actually saw the stars of my hometown in Casimir."

"Oh, this is not an illusion. The whole city of Casimir is experiencing a power outage now." Roy said these terrifying words calmly, and the Blood Knight was so scared that he immediately turned his head away.

"What? Why? Who did it?"

Roy gave him a meaningful smile.

"You boy!"

Volume 1: Chapter 112: Boy, you're on a pirate ship

"There's a power outage."

As expected, Xinteleya opened her eyes that had been closed earlier. After gradually adapting to the darkness, she turned her head and looked at Monique beside her.

Among the Qingjin, only Monique didn't know the truth of the matter, but faced with such an emergency, she still made the fastest and most reasonable response. She immediately exchanged glances with Xinteleia, and after confirming that they were both safe, she immediately offered words of comfort to Viviana, who was a little overwhelmed:

"Don't worry, Miss Candle Knight, we are all here."

"Hey, who are you?"

Monique pulled the corner of her mouth and reminded: "That day in the souvenir shop..."

Viviana suddenly realized: "Oh, it's you, the courageous Roy fan!"

The action of helping to buy souvenirs that day was still vivid in Viviana's mind. She also had a good impression of Monique. Upon hearing this, she lit a candle in her hand, and the dim light illuminated each other's faces. However, Monique's expression did not seem to be so happy.

The veins on Monique's forehead jumped. What is a bold fan of Roy? When did she become a fan of that guy? He was very popular on the stage, but Monique didn't get any benefits. She had to do more work for him. Even if Xiao Baijin helped to share the burden, it was still free work. Not to mention, in this situation, when it got dark, she had no idea at all. Roy was still on the stage. Who could she talk to?

Oh no, there's also Sintelaia.

Monique turned around and glanced at Xinteleiya's position. She didn't know what was going on until she saw it. She felt upset again. Xinteleiya was nowhere to be seen. After exchanging glances with Monique, Xinteleiya thought that Monique had been informed of the plan, so she turned around and ran away in the dark.

Now she is alone.

As a former reservist in Victoria, she had never been wronged before, so she wanted to find an excuse to run away. But she didn't expect that before she even left the stool, Viviana reached out and grabbed her, and reminded her with a concerned look on her face:

"Don't walk around. The whole city has a power outage for some unknown reason. If you run around now, you might get into danger. You should stay with me. I have light here, which can at least illuminate the surroundings."

The words were sincere and the reasons were sufficient. Monique couldn't find any reason to refuse for a moment. On the contrary, it would seem suspicious if she forced to leave. She could only smile awkwardly. It was not right to struggle, and it was not right not to struggle.

On the other side, Roy's retreat was much easier.

After seeing Roy's meaningful smile, Dikaiopolis had no choice but to close his eyes. He didn't know what Roy was planning, but out of trust in Roy, he decisively chose to play deaf and dumb and pretended not to see it.

Anyway, the sea of ​​blood just now has exhausted his physical strength. Even if he wants to stop it now, he doesn't have the ability. It is better to let Roy do it. It can be regarded as repaying him for turning a blind eye to his participation in the preliminary round.

As for what would happen, if something really happened and the Chamber of Commerce or anyone else investigated and held him accountable, he would not be afraid.

I was already fainted at that time. There was nothing I could do. After the blood sea overload, I couldn't bear it. I was still an infected person. Isn't it normal for me to faint? I didn't see anything. Even if I asked ten thousand times, I still didn't see anything. What was there to doubt?

Before the game, in order to win the championship, he had to look at the face of the Business Federation and suppress his temper. Now that the game is over, there is no dirty tricks, and he even got help. He lost fairly and has no regrets. Now he doesn't even dare to speak with a firm voice, he will suffocate himself!

Without the worry of the Blood Knight who was most likely to backstab him, it was too easy for Roy to sneak out. The security of the stadium had already fallen into chaos when the city lost power. These city dwellers who had lived their whole lives had never adapted to the darkness that was like being lost in the forest. Without surveillance, Roy easily bypassed them and went straight to the Supervisory Committee.

He had to go and pick up Skadi, which was the part of the whole plan that worried him the most.

On the side of the Supervisory Commission, next to the central square.

Grand Knight Commander Russell did not chase Skadi with Mainna. Instead, he turned around and looked at the ruined Supervisory Council building behind him, and guarded the main entrance with his sword.

Xuan Tie shot just one sword and then disappeared. Immediately afterwards, the whole city was in a power outage crisis. How could a man with such a sharp mind as the Grand Knight not realize that the sword was just a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

And Xuantie must still be staying in the Supervisory Council building at this moment.

Russell calmed down with his thoughts racing. After a moment's silence, he said something unexpected: "I know you are in there. Come out. We can still talk."

"I know you're in there, come out, we can still talk."

"Did you hear that, young man? That Grand Knight Commander is not as easy to deal with as you think."

Wearing a straw hat and a mask, dressed like an old hunter, he looked old but not hunched or weak at all. Instead, he stood tall and straight. Xuan Tie, who was full of energy, looked at Charne, who was dressed in a suit and tie in front of him, and said with a smile.

The voice changer made his voice sound funny, but Charney couldn't laugh at all. No one could smile peacefully from the bottom of their heart when being stared at by a pair of hawks.

He roughly knew who the person in front of him was. His dress was exactly the same as the legend of the Wuzhe League, but Charne could not and dared not say his name - Xuantie.

"What do you think I should do? I didn't plan on chatting with her. She's a troublesome person. Logically, I should just climb over the wall or dig a tunnel to leave. But before I could do that, you sneaked in."

"I can pretend that I saw nothing, and I won't tell anyone that you were here." Charne replied immediately. Cold sweat had already wet his back, and his clever tongue seemed to be a little knotted, which could not change his powerlessness at all.

Xuan Tie shook his head: "I don't care if you tell others about this. After tonight, even if your superiors are stupid, they should know what happened after sorting it out. This won't move me, and it won't change your death."

Xuantie paused deliberately, as if observing Charnei's reaction, and was somewhat unexpectedly able to see a look of relief on the man's face.

He obviously felt that death was nothing to be afraid of, or rather, he had realized that compared to death, it was a blessing that some more terrible things had not happened.

But Xuan Tie's next words made his heart, which had just calmed down, rise to his throat again.

"But I think you don't have to die."
