The immortal black snake just wants to live simply

Arthur looked at Linguang Manor, which was close at hand.

'Let me see... what is the chivalry that Cyril would rather die than abandon~'

……

"Haha... Even a prosperous city like the Great Knight Territory will eventually have such dark corners."

With the sound of leather shoes hitting the ground, a red-haired Sakaz wearing a top hat walked slowly in the dilapidated and narrow alley.

Satan came here to add an insurance policy to Arthur Pendragon... and to monitor the self-proclaimed Church of Satan to prevent those guys from causing any trouble in his name.

Arthur Pendragon's strength is not outstanding, but Ma'na, who sheathed probably Casimir's strongest sword, is undoubtedly better...perhaps by a lot.

After all, the purpose of Arthur's body from the beginning was just to experience Casimir's knight culture... It was enough to win the knight championship.

No one knows whether the "submit" who has been honest and worked hard for many years will suddenly become angry and chop off Arthur's head with a sword.

That would be no fun.

And Black Snake does not want to trigger the No. 11 Uka War because of the Church of Satan's own initiative.

After all, who doesn’t know now that Satan is actually the Duke of Cosiche?

Well...except for those fanatical believers in the Church of Satan.

They firmly believed that the Duke of Cosiche was Satan.

Weird rumors like [The Duke of Cosiche actually has a deal with Satan] [The Duke of Cosiche is Satan’s vest] [I understand, the Duke of Cosiche is also a Sakaz].

And Black Snake turned a blind eye to this.

After all, most people only believe what they want to believe.

But Black Snake's "endurance and humiliation" in order to gain the recognition of Sakaz's ocean of consciousness... does not mean that he will let the Church of Satan mess around.

Today Ursus needs to recuperate, and Casimir is also unwilling to be forced into the quagmire of war...especially with Ursus.

Even after Kosiche was transferred, Cyril Linguang reunited the Silver Spear Pegasus to tear apart Ursus's defenses and drive those invaders from Casimir's land, but the gap in military strength Still cannot be ignored.

Both sides maintain this delicate balance, and the node of balance lies with Arthur.

If Arthur successfully participates in the Knights Championship, he does not even need to obtain any ranking. As long as he participates, the diplomatic relationship between Ursus and Casimir will enter a new stage.

After all, the Business Federation needs an external environment for stable development, and so does the current emperor of Ursus.

Of course, the hatred between the two sides cannot be disintegrated so easily... This is unrealistic.

But just like nothing in this world is eternal.

The fire of hatred without fuel will only gradually extinguish under the power of time.

One day is not enough, one year is not enough... What about ten years, a hundred years, or even a thousand years?

Black Snake can wait.

Waiting for the day when the hatred is gone and the Ursans and the Casimir can embrace each other.

According to Chapter 166, the Capte Group knows everything about the black snake!

'……why?Cyril Linguang, why don't you accept me? '

'...'

'Don't you want to do more for your country, for your family... and even for your own fragile lifespan by becoming a part of me? '

'I never thought that my short lifespan and memory could cause waves for an existence like you, and I don't want to be a puppet in your hands... But Black Snake, if you just want to swallow my will, you don't want to You need to talk nonsense to me. '

'...Haha, it seems you still don't know enough about me.I can indeed forcibly swallow your will and even make it into a puppet, but that kind of incomplete product is harmful to me.I don't have that much time to deduce every memory fragment of yours, and the unsystematic skills are not worth my time to learn.Mortal martial arts are of limited use to [me]. '

'...'

'Why don't you bow your head?Today's Casimir is no longer the motherland you love, and your former comrades-in-arms also stand by and watch what you are going through now... They even fear you more than they respect you. '

'You won't understand, Black Snake...this is my motherland after all, the land I love. '

'...Even if Casimir today forced the former war heroes to this point? '

'But there has never been a country that has not experienced a period of darkness, and there has never been a beautiful utopia in this land...Only by overcoming the darkness can we welcome the dawn. '

'...'

'I have no intention of preaching to you, because compared to you, my lifespan and experience are so small; I have no position to advise you, because my dead comrades have always warned me that hatred is not that easy. Forget. '

'...'

'But Black Snake, not everyone in this land only seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages... and there are some things that you must do even if you know you can't do them. '

'That is undoubtedly stupid. Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is the instinct of all life, and the essence of ethics and morality is just to put a cloak of civilization on barbarism.Supporting parents is just a fear of being homeless in old age; treating others with integrity is just to better survive in the collective; as for those who truly do not ask for anything in return, they are just one or two mutant individuals in the huge base of life... They will not live long. '

'But you can't deny the existence of those individuals, can you? '

……

at dusk.

One of the spokespersons of the Business Federation, Markowitz, had just finished a phone call with Dr., the person in charge of Rhode Island's trip to Casimir, an internationally renowned medical organization for infected persons.

"Whoo~"

Markowitz took a long breath.

Recently, the return of [Glory Knight], the protest of the Infected Knights, the comeback of [Laughing Knight]... and even the pressure from the Supervisory Committee have made this young and inexperienced spokesperson miserable.

He was once just an employee of Swama Food Company. He was invited by the former spokesman Charne to become his subordinate. After Charne was hired by Capt Group, he inherited the position of spokesperson and the command of the Unparalleled Alliance.

The Business Federation was dissatisfied with Capte Group's poaching behavior, but there was nothing they could do about it.

After all, they would not fall out with the multinational group Capte just because of a small spokesperson, one of the many 'mouthpieces' of the Chamber of Commerce.

Pay and return are not proportional at all.

Of course, in order to express its apology and prove that it is not controlled by Charne, who is the spokesperson, the Capte Group also provided it with a lot of information about the Business Federation, the evil god from Ursus. , information related to the immortal black snake who likes to play games in the human world.

This changed Capte Group's behavior from poaching to trading.

It is conducive to stabilizing the cooperative relationship between the Business Federation and Capte Group.

"Mr. Charny, you really left me with a big problem~"

Markowitz sighed.

Charny once preserved and perfected the infection system that the infected person entry system developed for the first time as the champion in the short history of the Casimir Knights Championship.

You know, ever since the true identity of the "Laughing Knight" was revealed, the Business Federation has hated this system.

They want to eliminate as much as possible...or put it another way, to have a clear relationship with the [Laughing Knight].

After all, the knight competition itself relies on the audience's preferences to make money.

If the public in Casimir thinks that the Commercial Federation is related to the nightmare of the Knights from Ursus and the Conquest Knights, their respective reputations will undoubtedly be damaged, and the sales of their products will also be affected.

But Charny keenly discovered that the older generation of people in Casimir seemed to have complicated feelings towards the god from Ursus, and many of the younger generation of viewers had long forgotten the cruelty of the original war...disgusted [Laughing Knight] 】There are not as many people as expected.

As society develops, infected knights will undoubtedly be able to create huge benefits for the business federation.

First of all, the price of infected knights is low, and compared with those old-school knights who still hold on to their ancient honors and maintain their own identity, they are easier to convince the business federation.

There are some troubles in management, but for the business federation that controls the weapons of public opinion, it is not a trouble.

What's more, being able to satisfy the overwhelming 'Mother's Heart' of most viewers can further enhance the social reputation of the business federation.

So Charny convinced the Chamber of Commerce.

As expected, the tolerant infection management system even promoted Casimir's economy and reduced the cost of recruiting knights by the Business Federation.

And an infected knight from Minos - [Blood Knight] won the Knight Championship and indeed created a lot of profits for the Business Federation.

The vast majority of viewers really like the novelty.And what could be fresher than the news that an infected person had won the knighthood?

And it can greatly satisfy the audience's sense of morality.

You see, even infected people can become knights, so which country is more advanced and enlightened than our Casimir?

As for the actual living environment of infected people...

They don't care.

The vast majority of spectators only care about the glamor on the field and ignore the sad experiences in daily life.

……

"The next game..."

"The [Laughing Knight] is also going to appear?"

"..."

"Why are there so many things going on recently? They all come together."

"I hope nothing will go wrong on the field... By the way, let's do a survey to see what the audience's attitude is towards that person."

Markowitz tiredly picked up his communicator and started busy again.

In the final analysis, the spokesman is just a higher-level wage earner.

Chapter 167 Zofia: One of my black snake friends

"Aunt, I remember that you had fought against that [Laughing Knight] like your sister before?"

"You are not allowed to call me aunt, you have to call me sister...you remembered it wrong."

"Huh? But didn't you brag to me every day that if you hadn't met Arthur in the top [-], winning the championship would have been like picking something up... It hurts, it hurts, don't hit me on the head, I'll become stupid. "

"Maria, don't mention that guy again..."

"...It's because of that person's true identity, right?"

"...I don't want to continue talking about this topic with you. I still have to make a training plan for Margaret in the next stage...She is not enough now."

"But sister...sister, you have been a little distracted since you learned about the [Laughing Knight]. If you have something on your mind, you can tell us and let us find a solution together."

"..."

"If you keep it in your heart, it will get bad... you taught me this."

"You should know, after all, didn't I always talk about those things at the beginning... I made a mistake at the beginning, Maria, don't talk about this matter anymore."

"Okay... then I'll go to the craftsman's shop first and have a look. I also want to add strength to my sister's competition."

"Let's go, let's go... Now that your wings are strong, you dare to expose aunt's scars, right?"

"Don't dare, don't dare..."

'It seems that my aunt is still very distressed and didn't even let me call her sister...but this is normal. '

'Who would have thought at the time that [The Laughing Knight] was that Duke? '

'Alas~ The person I thought was a close friend suddenly turned into a family enemy... This is too cruel for my aunt. '

Maria didn't have any ill feelings towards the nominal family enemy. After all, when the last Uka War ended, even her sister had not been born yet.

Moreover, Grandpa didn’t say much about that god. He just sighed occasionally:

"Grandpa, I am not qualified to forgive that person for my dead comrade."

Maria remembered the look on her grandfather’s face at that time, which was so old and complicated.

"But children, you are still young. Before you perfect your knowledge of this land, before you establish your own beliefs... I don't want the hatred of our older generation to affect you."

The weak grandfather on the bed supported himself and touched the heads of his two good granddaughters with both hands.

The young Maria, the monk who was about to be expelled from Casimir, listened silently.

They could feel that grandpa's aura was gradually weakening.

He is leaving.

"If one day, your beliefs can touch the most cruel and soft-hearted; the most selfish and tolerant; the most arrogant and cowardly; the craziest and most rational gods on this earth..."

Grandpa's voice gradually weakened.

"Then maybe you have the qualifications to change this miserable land..."

After saying the last words, Cyril Linguang closed his eyes.
