He raised his head and met the smiling eyes behind the mask, as well as a special headset with the Wu Zhou Alliance logo printed on it that was handed to him, and he smiled bitterly.

"Or I'd better (die)..."

"How about you go and talk to her for me?" Xuan Tie spoke before he could.

Boy, if you listen to what Russell says, you will die.

Volume 1: Chapter 113 Deal

Russell, who was guarding the door, was not waiting for Xuantie who came out with a longbow, but for Charne who raised his hands with an unwilling look on his face. He couldn't help but frowned.

Russell still had some impression of Charney. This spokesperson of the Business Association was different from his colleagues who only focused on interests in previous sessions. He behaved more like an ambitious person. Since he became the spokesperson, although he avoided direct confrontation with the Supervisory Council, he worked hard to infiltrate the National Council. As a result, today, except for a few leaders at the top, the rest of the National Council have basically become lackeys of the Business Association. The positions of several senior judges that the Supervisory Council had tried so hard to hold on to have now become empty castles in the air.

Russell thought that Charne was a talented person, but he was also an undoubted loyal dog of the Chamber of Commerce. But precisely because of this, she would never have thought that Charne would actually walk out of that door at this time.

"You are the one who infiltrated the Federation? Are you from the Heroless Alliance?"

Charne's face was full of helplessness. He wanted to say no, but the dark gaze locked on him behind him prevented him from saying even a word of denial.

Moreover, to round it off, he was forced to come out and be questioned, which is basically like mud falling out of his crotch - it's shit at least.

After a struggle, facing Russell's questioning gaze, he could only raise his head with a strong face and answered:

"I think I am."

The stubbornness, the endurance, the pain of wanting to curse but not being able to, were all seen by the Grand Knight.

She tilted her head and glanced at the dark building of the Supervisory Council behind Charney, and suddenly realized what was going on. But she did not feel any sympathy or pity, and instead could not help but smile.

Seeing Charne's uncomfortable look, Russell was so happy. Is there anything more pleasing than seeing someone who caused her so much trouble being humiliated? Even the unhappiness she felt at being tricked by the Wu Zhou League tonight had dissipated a lot at this moment. She coughed twice, pretending that she hadn't noticed anything, and said:

"Why did the Wuzhou Alliance shut down the power? This is very dangerous. If the power is not restored in time, the four cities will be seriously derailed. At that time, the loss of life and property will be immeasurable. Isn't the Wuzhou Alliance afraid?"

Charne perked up a little after hearing this. This was the question he had always wanted to ask. Xuan Tie, who was standing behind him in the Supervisory Council building and using only a headset to remotely control the situation, replied softly:

"The derailment of the four cities is indeed dangerous, but as long as the power supply is restored on time, everything will be fine. As for why we want to do this and whether the Wuzhou Alliance is afraid of the possible consequences, I can only tell you..."

Xuan Tie paused, and said in a relaxed tone, almost jokingly:

"After tonight, there will be no more Heirless Alliance in Casimir."

After the erasure of all relevant information about the Wuzhou League and the severing of the ties between the Wuzhou League and the Chamber of Commerce itself, the Wuzhou League will completely become an urban legend of Casimir, and will be replaced by a shell company called "Source Stone Cloud" that Xuantie has already prepared. It will take over all the key resources of the Wuzhou League, including large amounts of funds, high-level combat power, and intelligence collection on all walks of life in Casimir and its leaders and behind-the-scenes figures over the past century, and even some fatal handles on some people in power.

With the help of these political resources, Yuanshiyun, a small company under the brand of "hand sanitizer", will rise at a speed beyond ordinary people's imagination in a short period of time, and will have smooth sailing on the road to rise until it officially joins the Business Federation, or even takes charge of the Business Federation.

By then, there will no longer be any Heroless Alliance in Casimir, only Originium Cloud, a genuine giant enterprise that controls both the power of assassins and the power of capital.

This answer left Russell silent.

From the moment she realized that the Wuzhou League was behind the blackout, she had begun to think about what the Wuzhou League meant by doing this. Was it a radical move against the increasingly powerful Business Federation to ensure the independence of the organization, or was it a deliberate and helpless measure to demonstrate its own strength and deter the increasingly radical Supervisory Committee? But even she never expected that the purpose of the Wuzhou League doing this was simply to get rid of the "Wuzhou League" itself.

They want to completely get rid of the Chamber of Commerce and start working on their own. They want to become the third party force in this muddy water led by the Great Knight!

Although they should have had this strength, Russell still felt a bit of pressure when he really confirmed this ambition. This means that the enemy of the Supervisory Association in the future has changed from a single super opponent to two equally powerful behemoths. They are already powerless against a business federation, not to mention that they will have to balance the covetous No Helmet Alliance in the future.

Want to stop them?

As soon as this thought came into Russell's mind, the Charney megaphone sounded again:

"It's too late, Your Excellency the Grand Knight."

"Since I dare to let my messenger talk to you at this moment, you should be able to realize that the plan is not still in progress, but has ended. Including the Supervisory Council, the existence of the No Heroes Alliance has been erased from your memory except for you and a few others."

Russell closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "So that's it."

"But, as you said, I remember, and the directors of the Business Federation also remember, they will not easily let off a traitor like you, right?"

Is it finally time to negotiate terms?

Charne thought to himself. He felt disdain for Xuantie's words "my messenger", but he couldn't help but feel lucky, at least it meant that his life was temporarily saved. But what the future would be like depended on the conditions proposed by the Grand Knight and Xuantie's reply.

"If you have anything to say, just say it." Xuantie said.

"I think your approach is very interesting. This power outage caught everyone by surprise," the Grand Knight said slowly, "and a lot can be done in these short ten minutes. Although it is definitely too late tonight, in the future..."

"I want to do this once, too." She smiled. "I hope you can cooperate with us when the time comes, just like I did today."

She already had a plan in mind.

Casimir has a law that if a major crisis occurs in a mobile city that cannot be resolved by itself, the Knights of the War stationed in the surrounding area have the right to accept the summons of the Supervisory Council and enter the city to implement curfew and temporary control.

If in the future, the Supervisory Council really reaches that step in its game with the Chamber of Commerce, then everything the No-Hero Alliance is doing now will be a good example.

Second power outage?

After understanding Russell's meaning, Charney's heart almost skipped a beat. What a crazy proposal. However, before he could question it, Xuantie's instructions came through the headset:

"You don't have a choice, kid. So, happy cooperation."

Volume 1: Chapter 114 This story is long

It was pitch black in her vision, a strong stench lingered in her nose, and the sound of rushing water came to her ears. Mainna frowned, and after some hesitation, she forced herself to jump down the stairs and came to this area under Casimir.

But before he could explore this unknown territory, a sound above his head attracted his attention.

"Maenna, what are you doing, is this a new job?"

Maenna immediately raised her head and looked at the blue figure squatting at the entrance of the sewer. She narrowed her eyes and asked:

"You shouldn't be here, Roy. According to normal procedures, you should be at the game site accepting interviews from those reporters and then receiving that huge bonus and a useless trophy."

Roy curled his lips. He knew it was abnormal for him to leave the stadium now, but what could he do? If he didn't come, you would have to catch Skadi.

As a half-sea heir who had merged with the "Last Knight", Roy could be considered a deep-sea hunter who was not on the staff. He could sense that Skadi's current condition was not good, and she was not moving very fast in the sewers, and even had a tendency to get lost. If he let Mainna go, Skadi might be captured by her uncle. This was something Roy did not want to see.

Just like Skadi was counting on him to get information about other deep-sea hunters, he was also counting on Skadi to get the approval of other deep-sea hunters and get more information about Agor. She was captured, where could Roy find the next reliable and sober deep-sea hunter?

Roy said something very stiffly: "Isn't there a power outage?" He looked at Maenna, stretched out his hand, and suggested: "Whatever happens, how about coming up first? You're smelling down there, and I'm tired of squatting up there."

Mainna stared at Roy for a moment, as if he was considering something. After a while, he turned his head and looked at the deep sewer passage, retracted his gaze, reached out his hand, took Roy's hand, and climbed up to the ground.

The red lights of the emergency power supply have gradually lit up on the main roads and major buildings in the core city of the Great Knight Territory, dyeing the sky with an ominous scarlet. With his back to the light, Mauna looked at Roy's smiling face and asked directly without waiting for him to open his mouth to make a joke:

"Does what happened tonight have anything to do with the Wuzhou League?"

Roy's expression froze. Looking at Mainna's tense face and the hand on the hilt of the sword, he couldn't help but sigh and put away the relaxed look he had deliberately shown. At the same time, his temperament also changed. From a young, sunny and cheerful boy, he returned to the cold and capable Qingjin Lord who confronted Mainna under the street light that night.

"Yes," he replied, "It's a done deal. What are you dissatisfied with?"

This question made Maenna stunned.

What did he feel unconvinced about? To be honest, he had no intention of intervening in the plans of the Wuzhou League and the conspiracy behind them. Even if the plan was realized and the four cities had a power outage, he would not have any psychological fluctuations. He might even boo the Business Federation that was crying and shouting for losing a lot of money. From this point of view, the matter did not even have anything to do with him, and he really had nothing to feel unconvinced about.

The reason why he was dissatisfied was because of another aspect, which was a person.

Did Roy see this and ask directly? It would be just as rude as if he directly asked about the relationship between this matter and the Wuzhou Alliance.

Mainna smiled helplessly, but Roy didn't give her any advantage in words.

Realizing how emotional he was, Mayenna took a deep breath and asked again:

"Which silver-haired woman who calls herself Skadi, is she a hidden member of your Helmetless Alliance?"

Skadi's strength had clearly surpassed Maenna's inherent impression of the No-Head Alliance. In his memory, even the oldest Black Iron Great Master would have been helpless and surrendered once he got close to him, but Skadi could not only confront him head-on, but could even defend against his and Russell's joint attack. With this strength, it would not be an exaggeration to say that she had reached the level of the Ursus Wendigo who had fought against his father, Cyril Linguang.

The Wuzhou Alliance is the only one that can secretly train such talents.

"No, Skadi has nothing to do with the Helmetless Alliance. She may not even know what the Helmetless Alliance is."

Roy's answer was straightforward. He was just stalling for time. In Hai Si's perception of his compatriots, the aura of Skadi, this "special individual", was becoming increasingly distant - thank God, she finally did not get lost in the sewer.

In order to ensure her safety, and to repay Maenna for turning a blind eye, he explained very seriously and solemnly:

"From your looks, you must have fought with Skadi before. To be honest, she doesn't belong to any camp of Casimir. She doesn't even belong to Casimir at all. I picked her up, and before I picked her up, she came from a civilization that may be very unfamiliar to you - Agor."

"Agor?" Roy's words made Maenna fall into a brief contemplation. He thought that Roy would just lie and not tell him the truth. After all, as Qingjin of the No Helmet Alliance, lying is their nature. He also has the confidence to see through these lies. But he didn't expect that Roy would sincerely explain to him an incredible thing.

Maina didn't even think Roy was lying. This lie was like a mother asking a child why he didn't do his homework, and the child said that the homework was taken away by aliens in a UFO. He wouldn't tell such a low-level lie.

After searching for information about Agor in his mind, Mayenna tentatively said:

"I have heard of the Agor, but from what I understand, they are not a civilization, but a race, spread out along the coastline of Iberia."

Roy nodded with relief. Not only because Mahenna actually knew some information about Agor, but also because he took up Roy's topic, which meant that he believed Roy's answer, even though the answer was incredible.

Sure enough, to capture the uncle, one has to start with his family. With the help of little Maria and Zofia, the goodwill gained during this period was not in vain.

After sorting out the information in his mind, Roy looked at Mayenna and the city behind him that was gradually lighting up again, and said slowly:

"This is a long story..."

PS: Does anyone think that I will let Roy fight Hai Si alone?

You are wrong. If we are going to do something big, we have to do it on a big scale. My goal is to form a golden team in advance!

Volume 1: Chapter 115 The Sea

"A long time ago, there was a huge country in the sea."

As soon as Roy opened his mouth, Mayna immediately raised her hand to interrupt him:

"Can you please not use the tone of someone telling a child a bedtime story? It makes me feel uncomfortable."

"That's a lot of requests," Roy complained quietly, rolled his eyes, opened the [Kal'tsit's Riddle] module, and said again: "For a long time, our attention has been focused on this land, on the mutual attacks of several countries and the intrigues of several groups of people, but we have ignored the larger forbidden area surrounding this entire land - the ocean."

"Maena, the Agor of Iberia that you mentioned is just a small ethnic group separated from the real Agor civilization in the sea. Please note that I use the word civilization here, not country. The Agor is undoubtedly a civilization, a civilization different from any country on this land."

“Now I understand.”

Mainna nodded with an understanding look on her face, which made Roy's eyelids jump. He thought that what he said was already very Kal'tsit-like, but he didn't expect that the Terrans would fall for it. It was really no wonder that Kal'tsit was his fault.

"So Skadi is from Agor, so what? Being from a certain country doesn't necessarily mean being strong. Even in a country full of geniuses, there are bound to be fools."

"But the Agors are indeed ahead of the land in all aspects. They even have flush toilets," said Roy.

Ma Enna was stunned: "What?"

"It's nothing. It doesn't matter how strong Agor is. What's important is what he's facing, which is also the reason why Skadi is so powerful - Seaborn. They were born in the ocean, but they are not the product of natural evolution. If we use a metaphor for Seaborn, they are like conscious cancer."

Terra also has cancer, but in the face of unreasonable medical technology such as Originium Magic, its threat is far less fatal than Originosis. Roy used this metaphor mainly to describe Hai Si's tenacious vitality and super reproductive ability.

"They are creatures that can continuously evolve in a directed manner based on external conditions, enemy types, and even their own will. Low-level individuals are called ichthyophthirius, and high-level individuals are even more bizarre. The types I know of include humanoid (the First Speaker), feathered beast-humanoid (the third stage of the Slaughterer), and even a twin-flower type that is the size of several floors (Bishop Salt Wind)."

After hearing Roy's description, Mauna's expression became a little strange. With the knowledge of a normal Terran, it was really difficult to imagine what Hai Si looked like, not to mention that Roy's descriptions looked like they were copied from some low-quality children's cartoon.

It sounds so outrageous, so outrageous that it even seems a little true.

"So, what is the purpose of those so-called sea heirs in the sea? You're not going to tell me they want to destroy the land?"

"Destroying the land is just a process, not a result," Roy replied. "In contrast to the Haisi's bizarre evolutionary abilities, they have a single social structure. They call themselves a large group, which means that all individuals are unified under the same entity, just like a honeycomb structure. And this kind of thinking brings them an extreme desire for survival. They are not like the countries on earth, who divide their own territory and sphere of influence in the wasteland. They don't have any moral concepts, and accordingly, they naturally don't recognize that their living space has a 'scope' limit."

"Before I noticed them, the Sea Heirs had been independently resisted by the Agor civilization in the ocean. In order to prevent the evolving Sea Heirs from acquiring resistance to heavy weapons such as firearms from them, they used cutting-edge technology far superior to that of the countries on earth to create a group of the most primitive hunters. These hunters were called [Deep Sea Hunters]. They wielded ancient cold weapons and fought against the Sea Heirs with their super-reinforced bodies and well-trained combat skills. This was Skadi's predecessor, a deep sea hunter. It is no exaggeration to say that she is the guardian of Agor and even the countries on earth who are still unaware of the threats in the deep sea."

Looking at Mainna's frowning expression, Roy knew it was almost time.

The above information was enough for him to roughly understand the situation in the sea and Skadi's identity, but there was still something missing, something that made him understand what the connection was between everything that happened in the sea and the land that had been watching the fire from the other side of the river.

"Maenna, you should know about the Great Silence, right?"

"I know." Mainna nodded slightly. No one in this land did not know about the great disaster that caused the Golden Empire of Iberia to fall silent overnight.

The last time such an event directly destroyed a country, there was an impressive name in the history of Terra - [Four Emperors' War]. The Great Silence was not much different from the Four Emperors' War. Until now, people still don't know whether this disaster was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, and what caused it.

Roy said this at this time, and Mayenna's heart sank.

"You are right. The Great Silence was caused by the anger of the Lifeblood of Origin, one of the four gods of the Sea. And we never know when His anger will come next and which country it will be directed at."

The Agor people and the Agor civilization, the secrets buried under the ocean surrounding this land, the Agor super civilization spanning the ocean, and the infinitely evolving threat of the sea heirs and the super Agor people created to fight against them - the Deep Sea Hunters.

This information is by no means something that can be easily explained in a few words, but even with the words that Roy has refined and omitted countless times, the amount of information revealed still makes Mainna feel a tingling sensation on her scalp.

Who could have imagined that while the Chamber of Commerce was still engaged in a battle of offensive and defensive action with the Supervisory Council, so many things were happening deep in the calm ocean that no one had paid attention to?

Who would have thought that the earth civilization that seems to be thriving now actually has a sword of Damocles hanging over its head?

The lifeblood of the origin is not so easily angered, but Ishamara, who symbolizes struggle, is different. He was born to fight. In the Sea Heir's world-destruction line, it was the awakened Ishamara who initiated the assimilation of the land.

This is what Roy wanted to prevent, so he protected Skadi, but he also had to be prepared for the worst, so he told Mainna about it.

The power of one person is ultimately limited. Even in a knight novel, the protagonist has a nanny, a warlock, and a tank as teammates. Roy is always humble, and will never do things by himself if he can recruit workers. At the very least, he has to form a golden team. At best, he must try his best to win over the two countries, and with the power of meat pigeons and modules, he may not be without the ability to fight.

"I will keep these things confidential." Ma Enna was silent for a long time before finally answering.

Roy waved his hands quickly: "Don't keep it a secret. If you think someone is trustworthy, just tell him. I don't want any secret operations. Don't the Casimir people believe that there is strength in numbers?"

When did we believe in that? Isn't that what the Ursus believe in?

Mainna looked at Roy strangely, and he actually felt that if he told others what Roy said, without saying anything else, he would probably be considered a psychopath.
