When he heard the name, the staff member raised his head for the first time. He immediately found that there were two people coming in. He frowned and was slightly angry, but before he could get angry, his eyes were attracted by Miss Qin Liu.
An excited look of seeing the prey instantly appeared on his face. The staff member immediately sat up straight, adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses with his right hand, and his lazy temperament was swept away: "Hello, I am Victor, the audition candidate assigned to Niek City by the Business Federation."
"Hello, Mr. Victor."
Miss Qin Liu noticed the change in the other person's expression and was a little confused for a moment, but Victorians are born socialites. Even though she felt strange in her heart, she still greeted him politely without any flaws.
"Ms. Qin Liu is a new face. Is this your first time participating in the knight competition?"
"Yes."
"You don't look like a Casimir."
"My hometown is Victoria, but I have friends in Casimir, so I came here to develop my career."
After hearing Victoria's words, Victor couldn't help but clench his fists, and the excitement in his eyes became even stronger. He suppressed his excitement, looked at Qin Liu carefully, and asked expectantly:
"Very good, very good. May I ask, what is Miss Qin Liu's purpose in participating in this knight competition?"
"Purpose……"
"It's like this. The reason we set up these auditions is to find the knights with high commercial value who have been missed. I have made a preliminary judgment that your conditions may be very consistent. So I want to know, are you participating in the knight competition just to leave a souvenir, or do you have more far-reaching ideas?"
"What do you mean by further thought?"
Victor smiled slightly, crossed his fingers, and said in a persuasive tone:
"I'm sure you can guess some of it. The various companies under our Business Federation have a complete set of plans to create idol knights. We can tailor your personality and background for you, and let various media vigorously promote you. If you cooperate with us, what you can get in the future is immeasurable. For example, today you are still an unknown ordinary person, and tomorrow you can become a household knight star. How about it, what do you think?"
"Well, well...I..."
Miss Qin Liu never expected to hear such a thing. She couldn't help but look at Bai Lang, who blinked hard at her. Miss Qin Liu then remembered that the two of them came to use the aircraft, so of course she had to pretend to agree.
Victor noticed their eye contact. He looked at White Wolf and asked politely, "Look at my memory. I forget everything else once I start working. Is this lady also here to participate in the knight competition audition?"
"No." Miss Bailang shook her head quickly, then pointed at Qin Liu and said nonsense, "I'm her agent. We're together."
Mr. Victor showed a look of sudden enlightenment: "I see, the agent is ready. It seems that I was too nosy. So, have you two chosen your sponsors?"
Miss White Wolf skillfully continued, "There are a few companies that are interested, but I haven't decided who to approach yet. I plan to wait until I get to the Grand Knight Territory to do some detailed research."
"The competition is about to start, so we can't act too late. Packaging plans and various arrangements all take time. Today happens to be the last day of the auditions, and we have to take the aircraft back to the Great Knight Territory in the afternoon. You can prepare in advance to meet with the sponsors."
Victor took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Miss White Wolf. "This is my personal contact information. If you have trouble finding a sponsor, feel free to call me directly. If you find a sponsor, please notify me in advance."
"Okay, thank you."
"Finally, I would also like to know what Ms. Qin Liu's personal strength is like?"
"I see there is no place to test your ability at the audition. Is this important?"
"Objective conditions are the primary factor in becoming a knight idol, but knight competition is knight competition after all. Personal strength is what determines how far she can go."
"Please rest assured, we are well prepared. Miss Qin Liu's strength is no problem."
"Then I wish you success."
Victor nodded with satisfaction. Based on his years of professional experience, he might be able to discover a potential stock this time.

Chapter 2024 Bigwigs of the Business Federation 04-02-12 00:02:
After finishing the negotiation with Victor, Bailang and Qinliu, led by the staff of the Chamber of Commerce, came to a special aircraft parking area located in the suburbs. Since the aircraft would not take off immediately, the staff arranged for them to wait in the lounge.
In addition to the two of them, there are four other strangers using the lounge. These are people who have passed the audition in recent days. They are gathered together and will be sent to the Grand Knight's Territory together.
The four people are all Kuranta, two men and two women. The men are tall and handsome, and they are definitely models of knights when they put on armor. The women are beautiful, and they will always attract people's attention when they are in the crowd.
As soon as Miss White Wolf came in, she sensed a strong atmosphere of discord. The four people inside seemed to dislike each other. This was easy to understand, after all, these people were competitors. After accepting this, when she noticed hostile gazes coming towards her, she pretended not to see anything.
But things were not as simple as she had imagined. The longer they stayed in the lounge, the more Bai Lang felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. For some reason, the other two Kuranta girls started chatting in low voices, pointing fingers at her and Qin Liu, as if they were trying to form a united front.
The depressing atmosphere made Miss Bailang feel more and more uncomfortable. Considering that it would take a long time for the aircraft to take off and it would be too torturous to continue staying in the room, she simply pulled Qin Liu outside to get some fresh air.
They stopped by the boulevard and sat on a bench by the roadside to rest.
Miss White Wolf couldn't help but complain: "Before, I just guessed that the people of Casimir would like you more, but I never thought that you are actually really suitable to be an idol knight."
"Maybe not." Qin Liu shook his head, "Maybe Victor made a mistake."
"Not only Victor, but the others in the room must have thought so too. Didn't you notice that their eyes changed after seeing you? They were originally fighting overtly and covertly, but now they have formed a united front as soon as you arrived."
"It may have something to do with you. Why do I feel like they're always looking at you?" Miss Qin Liu smiled and covered her mouth. "But I didn't expect it before. There were only a few people and the selection process lasted for many days. I thought many people passed."
"Didn't Victor say that he was picking out people who had commercial value? If anyone else wants to participate, just go to the Great Knight to sign up. Look at the people he picked. It's better to say that he's picking out potential idols than to say that he's picking out competitive players. He's actually just like a talent scout for a commercial company."
"Are you familiar with sponsors? I saw you immediately connected with Victor."
"Of course. I am also a member of the company, so I understand sponsorship."
"Has Bingshi ever sponsored anyone?"
"I have sponsored polar scientific research projects. The recipient of the sponsorship is Miss Magellan, a former researcher at Rhine Life."
"Will you sponsor certain celebrities in the future?"
"I think it's more acceptable to give the money to our researchers to waste."
Miss Qin Liu said happily: "If I were a researcher at Bingshi, I would definitely be devoted to you."
Miss White Wolf glanced at her female companion with disdain: "What do you mean by devoted? Your word choice is so strange."
"Honestly, hey, White Wolf, if we go to the Great Knight Territory and I suddenly say I don't want to participate in the Knight Competition, will the people from the Business Federation come to bother me? Victor has only selected so few people, so he will definitely keep thinking about it."
"It's no use thinking about it. They want to create a knight idol. It's impossible to succeed without the cooperation of the person involved. So as long as you don't want to participate, they can't do anything about it. But I guess they will come up with a lot of things to tempt you."
"For example?"
"Money, status, fame, don't those who come for the knight idol all want to become famous overnight and live a life of luxury?"
"Then they have miscalculated. The things they can give me cannot tempt me."
"As expected of you, Knight Qin Liu is a noble and upright knight with integrity. He will not be tempted by anything, right?"
"No." Miss Qin Liu said sincerely, "There is still something that can tempt me."
"what?"
Miss Qin Liu changed the subject by talking about something else.
"I suddenly thought of an important matter. What should I do after arriving at the Great Knight's Territory in the evening? Should I go directly to Miss Lin Guang to deliver the letter?"
"No rush. In fact, what I want to do is to try not to trouble them if possible."
"But the letter has to be delivered. After all, it is Ms. Kal'tsit's commission. I'm afraid there are other important matters attached to it. It would not be good if it was delayed."
"We can first inquire about the situation near Lin Guang's house. It would be best to find a time when it won't attract attention and secretly deliver the letter. It's too early to plan now. We won't know what to do until the time comes."
……
It was the afternoon when Bailang and Qinliu were chatting.
Inside the Special Security Department office at the headquarters of the Great Knight Territory Commerce Federation.
The sound of hurried footsteps disturbed Miss Platinum who was sleeping soundly. Her killer instinct instantly took effect. She immediately picked up the information around her, placed it in front of her, and pretended to be working hard.
The next second, Director Durul's trusted guard knight appeared at the door.
Miss Bai Jin looked up from her busy work and saw that it was her colleague and half-superior. She was very surprised and asked, "What's wrong? Is it the boss who is looking for me?"
The Guard Knight saw the other party working seriously again and couldn't help but admire him secretly. Even for him, it was impossible to concentrate on work all the time, but the Miss Platinum from the No Hero Alliance in front of him could do it. The director's vision was indeed extraordinary.
He said seriously, "After hearing about the return of the eldest daughter of the Lin Guang family not long ago, the Lord took it very seriously. Since she chose to return before the Knights' Competition, it means that she is likely to plan to participate in the competition."
Miss Platinum's lips trembled uncontrollably, but she remained calm on the surface. She was now the de facto head of the special security department, and was known as a 'big shot in the Business Federation' by outsiders. She would never be easily afraid, especially not afraid of certain knight nobles who had fallen on hard times.
The escort knight was very satisfied with Platinum's reaction. If it were anyone else, they would probably be scared to death just by hearing the name of the Linguang family. However, Miss Platinum remained so calm. She was worthy of being someone who had experienced many ups and downs in the Wuzhou Alliance. Her psychological quality and ability level were quite outstanding.
"My lord has only one order. Before he returns from Leitania, you must keep a close eye on the people of the Lin Guang family and make sure they behave themselves and don't do things they shouldn't do. When necessary, my lord allows you to use extraordinary measures!"
……
Chapter 2024: Great Knight Territory 04-03-12 00:02:
Before the aircraft landed, the neon lights of the city had already flown high into the sky, leaving colorful marks on the portholes.
Miss White Wolf looked out the porthole and saw the bustling city like a huge birdcage full of lights, illuminating the night sky brightly. Tall buildings stood in rows, crowded and stacked on top of each other, and huge neon billboards dotted between the buildings, which could be seen clearly even from high in the sky.
She couldn't help but secretly compare the Great Knight's Territory with the places she had been to before.
Londinium is a quaint city, far from having so many crowded and stacked modern high-rise buildings; Tremont is a serious city, without such colorful neon lights; Lungmen is a proud city, and would never reveal such a frivolous and luxurious temperament.
The Grand Knight——Cavalleriaki, the apple of Casimir’s eye, which color is your base color?
Amid the neon lights, the aircraft landed smoothly. Mr. Victor from the Chamber of Commerce was thinking about the sponsors and wanted to take the initiative to help Bailang and Qin Liu. However, he was directly brushed off by Miss Bailang on the pretext that she had already planned it.
The two followed the bustling crowd, left the floating port, and officially entered the city.
If one were to describe Miss White Wolf's first impression of the city, it was that there were too many people. She had never seen such a crowded city. The crowds were like a tide, surging densely. Vehicles were lined up in long, impenetrable queues, shuttling back and forth on the road.
Whether it was Miss Bailang or Miss Qinliu, it was the first time for both of them to feel the shock of such a sea of people in the city. They were like two lone boats in the rolling waves, and they had to hold hands tightly in order not to get separated from each other.
After crossing the big intersection with difficulty, the two came to a more secluded street. The congested crowds loosened a little, giving them time to catch their breath.
"The Great Knight leads so many people."
Miss White Wolf wiped the sweat from her forehead.
Miss Qin Liu covered her eyes with her hands and looked around the brightly lit high-rise buildings nearby. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "There are high-rise buildings everywhere. This city probably has more than twice as many people as Londinium."
"I think two times is less, it should be at least three times." Miss Bailang also imitated Qin Liu and inspected the building not far away, and said thoughtfully, "This seems to be an office center area, with office buildings everywhere. How many workers must be accommodated in them?"
"Workers?" Miss Qin Liu looked at her phone in surprise. "But it's almost nine o'clock. Why are all the lights on in these buildings? Don't they get off work?"
"Maybe... I'm working overtime."
"The people of Casimir are really hardworking, unlike Londinium, where everyone runs away when the time is up."
"Indeed, there is a reason why the Business Federation is so rich."
"What should we do next?"
"Wait, let me check the map. Lin Guang's house seems to be... um, north of Jinyu Avenue. It's a bit far from here. Anyway, let's go to Jinyu Avenue first and find a hotel there."
"Would you like a taxi?"
Miss White Wolf looked at the crowded streets and shook her head in distress: "I think it's better to forget it. Taking a taxi in this area may not be fast. I can just walk. By the way, I can also feel the atmosphere of the Great Knight Territory."
In fact, the traffic in the Grand Knight's Territory was not as bad as White Wolf had imagined. Although there were many people in the city, the streets here were wide enough. Once you left the large intersections where the flow of people was heaviest, the feeling of huge crowds of people rarely appeared again.
Miss White Wolf was finally able to walk on the street at a leisurely pace. At this moment, she couldn't help but think of Miss Platinum. She knew that she lived in this city, maybe she was working, maybe she was resting at home, or maybe she was walking on the street like her.
She couldn't help but think about it.
What would happen if, while she was walking, she suddenly ran into Miss Platinum?
Meeting Miss Bai Jin is definitely a happy thing, but Qin Liu is also by her side. How should she introduce Miss Qin Liu to her?
She started to have a headache.
Although Miss Qin Liu had clearly stated that she only needed to be a guard knight and would not ask for anything extra, the most cunning thing about Qin Liu was that while she said that, she also directly revealed her true feelings.
This was equivalent to kicking the ball back. Sadly, she couldn't do as Qin Liu said and completely ignore the latter's emotional appeal and only treat him as a guard knight.
Until now, Miss Qin Liu is still injured, but she never shows any abnormality in front of her. The other party is indeed using her life to protect her, so how could she become heartless and ungrateful?
Because of this, the relationship between the two has always been ambiguous, and when facing Miss Platinum, that ambiguous relationship must be explained.
Will Miss Platinum be angry?
Miss Bai Jin said that she would not be angry, but if the other party said that he would not be angry, would he really not be angry?
What if Miss Platinum gets angry?
Will Miss Bai Jin have a conflict with Miss Qin Liu?
If two people have a quarrel, which side should you comfort?
Terrible questions echoed in Miss White Wolf's mind. Poor Miss White Wolf found that she could not cope with these things at all. In a trance, she felt that she should not have been alive.
Just when Miss White Wolf was in great distress, Miss Qin Liu poked White Wolf and asked, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally: "White Wolf, didn't you say before that you have a very good friend in Casimir?"
This sentence was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. Miss White Wolf's heart skipped a beat and her soul turned into a death row prisoner who was about to go to court and face the final verdict. She nodded in despair.
