Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

"There is no need to use the toilet on the ghost ship." Bai Yu closed the door and walked out, feeling refreshed.

He still underestimated Cordelia's willpower.

Ever since she accidentally let slip that she was going on a blind date, her enthusiasm level immediately increased by 300%, and her offensive was so intense that it was unbearable.

There's a little more weight on the shoulders.

The little snow girl appeared on his shoulder, swaying her little feet and said, "You are really unclean and noisy."

"It's not my problem, it's her estrus," Bai Yu said.

"You might as well just do it with her."

"Who did you learn the vocabulary from?"

"Self-taught." Siye said with a cold face.

"You must have heard the conversation between the ghosts." Bai Yu was stunned: "These old immortals like to gossip."

"Cordelia is not good enough? In my opinion, she is not worse than those two swordsmen." Yotsuba said calmly: "Males are always proud to have more beautiful females. What on earth are you doing?" What are you struggling with?"

"Were you invited by her to be a lobbyist? I'll pay double, and you go back to persuade her."

"..."

"If you agree just because you look good, there will definitely be no end in the future." Bai Yu spread his hands: "I am a hot sun in Daxia. Do you know how many girls want to get married? But they think, I must accept it? "

"Oh..." Yotsuba Mingwu said, "Are you afraid that your body won't be able to bear it?"

"Bah! I, the Great Xia Jiaoyang, am well versed in the principles of martial arts. How can I just activate blood and produce essence? How can it be the same as an ordinary old cow plowing the land? Don't you know there is another kind of skill called dual cultivation?" Bai Yu immediately argued. .

Yotsuba said with an expressionless face: "You actually said such insulting words to a pure elf who has never experienced the world and is as white as snow?"

"When snowflakes fall on the ground, they are no longer clean. Are you pretending to be pure?" Bai Yu flicked his finger.

Yotsuba hugged Baiyu's fingers, flipped them smoothly, turned around like a gymnast, and then sat on the back of his hand.

"So what are you struggling with? Tell me, let me..."

"I'm not willing to find a pure snow elf who has no experience in the world to advise me on major life events. This will only make me look like a failure."

"It's not a consultant, but it makes me happy." Yotsuba held his chin, like a Q-version doll: "I will draw emotional value from you, which is very useful for me to observe and imitate human beings."

Bai Yu walked to the deck, blew the sea breeze, looked at the rolling death tide, and asked: "Can you still feel the body in Fuso now?"

"It's very faint, almost broken. Although dreams are everywhere, the farther away they are, the more like a kite string flying higher." Siye said calmly: "She is her now, and I am me."

"In a year, you will be completely different individuals."

"Maybe." Yotsuba tilted his head: "I can only accept it and let nature take its course."

"This is also what I think about Cordelia." Bai Yu said: "I don't hate her, but it's too early to say I like her... And I already have many people in my heart, and everyone is a heavy Responsibility, I also hope to be able to be a couple for the rest of my life. If I really can’t let go, I won’t force myself to choose the most difficult ending. Now I am already standing on the edge of overcrowding, and I can no longer squeeze in more places.”

Siye sat in the palm of his hand and asked, "You didn't say that to her?"

"I told you, but it was of no use."

"why?"

"How do I know?" Bai Yu shook his head: "In fact, I don't know her at all."

The total time he and the Saint had known each other was less than thirty days.

From Cordelia's point of view, perhaps the two sides share life and death, but this is not the case at all from Bai Yu's perspective.

She was just a good girl and fun-loving, and she almost lost her life while playing.

Even if both parties made some mistakes in the secret room, they only stayed at the most superficial step, so it was too late to cut off the unnecessary emotions at this time.

He had long wanted to have a frank talk, but every time he put on a serious expression, Cordelia would directly interrupt and use various coquettish maneuvers to prevent Bai Yu from finishing his words. Even though she had the courage to speak clearly, she pretended not to understand.

The most troublesome thing is this...

"What a stalker." Siye applauded: "Ah, such a wonderful sermon, I understand, it turns out you are afraid of this kind of thing, is this called... a martyr girl is afraid of stalking a man?"

Bai Yu glared at Siye: "I understand, you are here to have fun."

"I just said that."

"You are not my little cotton-padded jacket at all, you are the Messenger of Pleasure!"

"Who would use a snow girl as a little cotton-padded jacket? Aren't you afraid of getting frostbite on your back?" Siye jumped off Bai Yu's palm and stuck out her tongue: "You can continue to worry about it. I'm going to go back to sleep."

Bai Yu continued to walk on the deck, and soon became bored.

Walk to a familiar location.

The ghost ship sailor next to him glanced at Bai Yu and handed over a fishing rod in a tacit understanding: "Want one?"

"Thanks."

Bai Yu took it with understanding and threw the pole into the sea.

In the quiet process, peace is washing the heart.

The ghost sailor smiled faintly. He had seen through it hundreds of years ago.

Young people should go fishing and stop thinking about falling in love.

The obsession of love is gone forever, but this one is eternal!

……

Yotsuba looked at the saint who had her head tucked into the quilt, seeming to taste the scent, and knocked her head.

"what are you doing?"

"I-I'm not so excited that I can't sleep because of the smell!"

"..."

"I really don't."

"Yeah." Snow Girl turned around and muttered: "...slut."

"Where did you learn the vocabulary?"

"It's all because of your good teaching." Siye said calmly.

"Who taught you this!"

"That's what he said."

"……real?"

"Are you even more excited?" The snow girl was shocked and took two steps back: "Cordelia, you..."

"No, no, you misunderstood." Cordelia widened her big blue eyes and continued to argue: "I didn't feel hot and uncontrollable because of his cold treatment!"

The snow girl took two steps back again.

Okay, now she fully understood why Cordelia didn't flinch at all from Bai Yu's cold attitude, but instead became more frustrated and courageous.

She turns out to be such a person!

It seems that what Bai Yu said is right. They knew so little about the saint before that they were unable to fully understand the image of this glorious saint in front of outsiders in private.

The image that has been deliberately created is definitely false, and it needs to be broken again and again before its inner essence can be revealed... Now it is just the beginning.

After thinking about it, Siye persuaded him: "There is no grass anywhere in the world."

Cordelia asked directly: "Were you caught by him as a lobbyist? I will give you double the amount he paid."

Yotsuba: "...To be honest, I support your marriage."

"I don't mind. I've reached the age to get married." Cordelia turned over: "It's a pity that he was reluctant. Did I do something wrong?"

The snow girl tilted her head. Even her little emotional intelligence could tell that something was wrong with this question... Why do you think you have done a good enough job?

"Gentle, courteous and thrifty...you haven't learned any of them." Si Ye sat on her knees and sighed: "No wonder you can't compare to the Nan sisters."

"They are..." Cordelia raised her voice and then lowered her voice: "They are cheating opponents. Of course I can't compare with them."

"but!"

Her voice rose again, full of high-spirited confidence: "Anyway, he is going to Rome for a blind date. After he sees all the crooked melons and cracked dates in Rome, he will naturally know how good this lady is!"

"...By lowering your opponent's level to improve yourself, you understand the theory of relativity."

Yotsuba tilted his head: "But even in Rome, your behavior is quite explosive, right?"

"No way, my bloodline is like this. People in my family have more or less similar symptoms, and his taste has always been very charming..." Cordelia licked her lips: "It makes me want to taste it. One taste.”

"Is it a physical taste?" Yotsuba asked, "Are you obsessed with the smell of his blood? I understand, you are greedy for his body."

"I don't eat raw blood and meat, and I'm not a beast. Steaks must be fully cooked." Cordelia snorted, and then explained: "Besides, the taste does not come from blood, but from the soul...' Blood is The Currency of the Soul', this is the opening summary of Soulology."

"The strange thing is that I didn't feel this attraction when we first met. Instead, I felt this way when we met later."

"Perhaps it was because of the first meeting that he had reservations."

Yotsuba clapped his hands: "Whether it's body or soul, is it all because of this part that attracts you?"

"Besides me, probably vampires or other special bloodlines will be attracted." Cordelia said, "I won't be an exception."

"That's not important. What's important is that you are so proactive for this reason?"

"Of course, no." The saint asked back: "How can you think so? I must be doing it because I like it."

"Oh? Then what do you like about him?" Siye asked, assuming the attitude of a wedding host.

...You haven't known each other for a long time, how can you possibly like her a lot?

...As long as your answer is unqualified, I will immediately cut off your thoughts to ensure that my sleep is not disturbed by your estrus.

"Face!"

"……you win."

Chapter 647 Donghuang Group

When talking about the foundation created by the ancestors of the Bai family in Rome, we have to mention the changes in history.

Although personal destiny is always closely related to the individual, it is also inseparable from the torrent of the times.

The ancestor of the Lao Bai family traveled across the ocean alone. After going through ninety-nine and eighty-one hardships, he became the son-in-law of a nobleman and established himself in Rome.

But in the end, the Bai family are still businessmen.

When it comes to businessmen, in fact, until the bourgeoisie became stronger and entered the stage of history, they had no social status.

Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants were at the bottom of the list. This was the case in Daxia. In Rome in the past, the status of merchants was not much higher.

Rome was founded for 800 years.

The thicker the history, the more it means the existence of many behemoths.

From Cordelia's narration, we can see that Rome today is a constitutional monarchy that has transitioned from a feudal empire. Its composition is very complex and it is divided into many factions.

Imperial power and religious power were unified, so the royal family still had a strong power, followed by the nobility... below the nobility were citizens, and these citizens had the right to vote.

The nobility and royal family correspond to the Senate; the citizens correspond to the National Assembly.

This is a very standard bicameral system.

The difference is that in Rome, where imperial power and religious power were unified, the power of the emperor was still supreme. Everyone was trying to get the position they wanted, but it was just the position of prime minister under the emperor. The real first ruler was always the Roman emperor himself. .

The origin of the bicameral system originally came from the Estates-General.

However, with the progress of society, the ordinary bicameral system cannot actually meet the overall social needs.

The Roman Senate was a group of nobles with hereditary power; citizens had the right to vote, but under these citizens, there were ordinary civilians.

In the past few hundred years, although ordinary civilians were numerous in number, they did not possess many overall social resources. Citizens, nobles and other classes had a larger number of extraordinary people. The limit was to be able to protect their own class interests through legislation.

But later, as magic energy was developed and the cake became bigger, even the common people were able to obtain sufficient benefits. This gave birth to another group among the common people... businessmen or capital.

This has been the case in many countries since ancient times. Although wealthy businessmen have acquired huge wealth, their social status has always been low. Even if they are rich, they always have to look at the faces of the nobles and citizens.

This makes the business class very cautious and treading on thin ice. The so-called accumulation of family property is not practical no matter how much they accumulate. They always need to judge the situation and take sides.

For example, in Frederica's family five hundred years ago, her father was a well-known businessman who once monopolized 80% of the carriage manufacturing market in and around Rome. Even so, he had to accept the situation. Living on the lap of a congressman, donating various political donations to the other party, helping the other party's elections, becoming a member of the National Assembly, almost all the family wealth, and finally spent ten years of hard work before getting a citizenship that the other party reciprocated.

This is what a successful investment looks like in the eyes of a businessman. He almost spent all his wealth before moving up a level.

This was Rome five hundred years ago. For businessmen at that time, it would take them ten years to make a successful investment or accurately identify people, which shows how difficult it was.
