Three Good Salary Kings Stand on the Ark

"really?"

"Of course, what did I lie to you for?"

"Why are you suddenly using a strange dialect?"

"Ahem, it's not important."

Nian wiped his mouth in a panic, and turned his head away, leaving only the back of his head for Ashes.

"Let's just treat it like this, so why did you use the oath just now? Did you fight with someone?"

"This..." Faced with Hui Hui's questioning, Nian suddenly seemed to be stuck, paused for a while, and then continued: "Actually, I went to the training ground. After all, I watch other people's training in full swing every day. I get itchy every once in a while, on a whim, and then...you get the idea."

Nian's explanation was obviously a bit far-fetched, but Ashes didn't continue to ask, but just reminded her to be careful, otherwise she would have to be caught by Kelsey to rub red gold again, and then let her rest earlier and then left.

Only Nian was left standing on the bridge, thinking about the previous confrontation.

Chapter 411 Maria's Letter, Knight Competition

Sincerely

dear sister

Long time no see, I miss you very much.

I haven’t seen my sister for a long time since the last farewell. I don’t know how my sister is doing now. How is she eating and sleeping? Do you eat meat every day? Do you have a soft bed to sleep on? ?

Although sometimes the idea of ​​going to the place where my sister works will arise in my heart, but in the end it is only to the extent of thinking about it. There is no need for me to worry about someone as powerful as my sister.

I remember where my sister works...it's called Rhode Island, right?I heard it on the radio some time ago, it's a big name medical pharmaceutical company.

But my sister is obviously a knight, why did she go to work there?Could it be that my sister changed careers and became a knight instead?No! ! !

Ahem, digressing, my sister hasn't been home since she was expelled from Casimir, and now Linguang's house has undergone great changes, and it is no longer the same as before.

Uncle Manna has been working very hard, but there are still fewer and fewer things in the house. I have to sell some furniture to ensure my life, but if this continues, I really have to sell the bed. Can fall asleep on the lawn! ! !

Aunt Zofia will come to take care of me from time to time, but this is not going to work. The family crest of the Linguang family is gradually covered in dust. It was so shiny when grandpa and sister were there...

Uncle Manna scoffed at the current knight competition in Casimir, thinking that it was not a real nobleman and refused to become a competitive knight. Therefore, the current Linguang family does not have long cavalry, and people from the Knights Association have come to urge it many times. ..

In that case, let me do it!In order to revive the glory of the Linguang family, I will become a champion like my sister!

Well, although this should be just wishful thinking, and I feel that Aunt Zofia and Uncle Manna will not agree, and they will probably be taught a lesson by then...

But now it’s time for nothing, if I don’t participate in the knight competition, the Linguang family will really be doomed! ! !

All in all, wish me luck, sister.

Ah, by the way, this letter cannot be discovered by my sister, otherwise, there will be one more person who will teach me a lesson, then I really can't bear it...

your dear sister

Maria Linguang

In Rhodes Island, at the gate of the training ground, Linguang, who was still doing daily training just now, was suddenly called away, and then a letter was stuffed into her hand.

Although he had some doubts in his heart, Linguang put aside his training for the time being, picked up a towel to wipe off his sweat and hung it around his neck, then found a bench to sit down, and opened the envelope in his hand.

Ashes, who was in charge of delivering the letter, also sat next to her. As an idler in Rhodes Island, Ashes naturally had time to help with these small things.

Linguang opened the envelope, and took out a piece of crumpled letter paper with some strange stains on it. He shrugged his nose slightly, and there was a smell of motor oil from the letter paper.

The letter is not too long, Linguang read it quickly, the handwriting on it is a bit delicate, many places have been altered and the expressions are very colloquial, and the experienced Linguang can read it at a glance I didn't write this letter in one breath, but I wrote a paragraph as soon as I remembered it.

But these are not important, what is important is the content inside, and the sender of this letter.

"Is it a letter from the family?"

Ashes asked casually while looking at the sweating operators on the training ground.

"Well... it's my sister's letter, and she probably didn't want to send this letter. There must be some mistakes before it finally reaches me."

"Maria... She actually wants to participate in the knight competition... Calculate the time, it is indeed almost here, has the situation at home become like this..."

Linguang muttered to himself, and the big fluffy tail behind him flicked restlessly.

She looked at the letter paper over and over, and guessed that her sister originally wanted to write a letter to herself, but she gave up later, so she simply used it as a draft paper and wrote down some thoughts in her heart.

It's just that what this letter brings is not good news.

"Knight competition?" Ashes was a little curious, this was another thing he didn't know.

"Ah, Mr. Huihui doesn't know, it's normal." Linguang sighed, folded the letter paper, put it back into the envelope and sealed it.

"Since this is the case, let me say a little bit. The so-called knight competition actually has little to do with knights. The taste of competition occupies a considerable proportion, and it is even eroded by the power of capital."

"As long as you have money, the once glorious knighthood of Casimir is at your fingertips. As long as you can win in the competition, you can bring more profits to the company and capital. Now Casimir's knight is no longer what it used to be. Nobles, but like some clowns."

"The ancient class of knights has finally become a puppet of competition, and it has already existed in name only..."

Linguang explained the knight competition to Ashes, and it could be seen that she was quite dissatisfied with this kind of completely profit-seeking behavior, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Ashes remembered that when talking with Shining and the others before, she learned that before Linguang joined the apostles, she used to be the knight of Casimir with the title, which is a considerable honor among knights. .

But she also fiercely resisted the commercialization of Casimir's knight competition. At the same time, Linguang was infected with ore disease due to an accident, and was forced to leave Casimir under tremendous pressure.

The smell of conspiracy is clearly audible, but Linguang has nothing to do, after all, she can't interfere with the entire country by herself. Kasimir's problem is far more than just knight competition, but has a more complicated and long-term reason.

Now, Linguang's younger sister, Maria, is also going to participate in the knight competition. This is something she cannot accept. Linguang clearly knows what the current knight competition has become. Fanaticism, lust, and knights have no dignity. become the object of fun and gamble for the audience, once a mistake is made on the field, the result will not be better than falling on the battlefield.

"I need to ask Dr. Kelsey for a leave of absence. Maria must not be allowed to make the same mistakes again."

Linguang stood up, packed up her things, and prepared to go to Kelsey's office. She needed to get a leave of absence for a period of time, so that her sister could completely give up.

"The jousting...interesting. I'm with you, Miss Linguang."

Chapter 412 A Kingdom Doomed to Decline

Ashes followed Linguang to Kelsey's office, and Kelsey is also meticulously handling her documents today.

In fact, she is not only responsible for most of Rhodes Island's decision-making work, but the medical department has to work overtime from time to time. Although in the doctor's mind, Kelsey has always been the black-hearted slave owner, but in fact she Squeeze yourself harder than anyone else.

After learning the purpose of the two people's visit, Kelsey also calculated the date and found that it was indeed almost time for Kasimir's knight competition.

"Time flies, and it's time for the opening of the stage where the clowns gathered."

Kelsey said while stamping the approval stamp on the two people's leave slips.

"Does Dr. Kelsey think so too?"

Linguang took the leave slip that Kelsey pushed back, and asked curiously.

"Well, anyone who knows about Casimir should think so. Even though it was once famous for its pegasus with silver spears, it turned into a plaything of capital in the end. The ancient knight class has become today's It looks a little embarrassing.”

"On the frontier battlefield of Casimir, the pegasus lined up and charged together. Maybe we will never see it again. Even Ursus had to avoid the sharpness at that time. It's a pity."

Shaking her head, Kelsey sent the two away with a wave of her hand. She was not surprised that Linguanghui decided to return to Casimir, after all, she would not watch her sister join the knight competition.

Although it is a competition, it is no more cruel than the battlefield. If a little girl enters that kind of meat grinder rashly, the end will be very miserable.

only...

The pen in Kelsey's hand stopped, and she raised her eyes slightly, watching Ashes' back gradually being sliced ​​away by the door, and finally disappeared from her sight.

Is he going too?I really don't know if it's for fun or something else.

If you let this guy in...

Kelsey couldn't help but sighed, not because of anything else, but because of those mercenary businessmen in Casimir who felt sad.

Casimir is a country controlled by capital, but if those who don't know what is good or bad want to use money and other boring things to control and balance Ashes, maybe it will be more interesting?

At this time, Kelsey suddenly regretted that Rhodes Island's next target was Victoria. If he went to Casimir to make a black bet, he might be able to make a lot of money.

Forget it, don't want that anymore.

She lowered her head again, earnestly correcting the documents in her hand to ensure the smooth operation of Rhodes Island.

After coming out of Kelsey's office, Linguang seemed a little impatient. There were not many days left before the opening of the knight competition. Counting the time that passed, she had to act more nimbly.

Linguang first found Shining Ling and Nightingale. After explaining the situation, both of them expressed their understanding, but they also said that they couldn't go with her anymore. There seemed to be some progress in the medical department, and they had to keep an eye on them.

And Ashes couldn't find anyone who could go with him, the person who asked was either busy or not free, and even the fireproof woman expressed regret that she couldn't go with him this time.

But she took out the royal weapon and stuffed it into Ashes' soul wooden box. When Ashes asked why, she replied like this:

"Souls and souls will attract each other, Mr. Ashes, at the right time, the king device will show you its miracles."

Ashes put his hands on his chest, he could feel the king's device staying in his body peacefully, but he couldn't understand the deep meaning in Fireproof Girl's words.

It has been like this since before, most of what she said was very obscure, Ashes sometimes nodded, but actually didn't understand what the fire prevention girl said at all.

However, as long as it can't be a bad thing, he believes that the Fireproof Girl won't harm him, and that's enough.

In this way, on the way to Casimir, only Linguang and Ashes walked together. The two of them parted ways with Rhodes Island's forward route and headed towards the decayed country.

The journey is not too far, but it will take some time. Taking advantage of this time, Linguang has the opportunity to explain to Ashes the reasons for Casimir's fall in more detail.

"...If it is said that the knights overthrew Casimir's rule of the gods and the people, and established the knight order system and knight dictatorship, it was the first historical turning point for the Casimir knights. Casimir's oligarchic chaebol has undoubtedly become the second historical node."

"Enterprises have indeed made a lot of outstanding contributions to Casimir. From villages in the forest to towering city-state giants, countless people depend on Casimir's corporate economy for their basic necessities - economy is everything."

"It may not be incomprehensible that the knight has become what it is today."

"but..."

Linguang sat on the co-pilot's seat. At this time, she took off her heavy armor and put on more everyday clothes. The slightly noisy wind poured in through the open car window, blowing her golden hair. beautiful hair.

"...I still can't take it."

Margaret Linguang, who was born in the ancient Linguang family, has received the most orthodox knight education since she was a child, and has also become a knight with the title. Although she has grown a lot after being exiled, the heart of The persistence of her identity still made her hate the knight competition from the bottom of her heart.

She was extremely resistant to this product of capital that trampled on the dignity of knights from the beginning to the end.

"Casimir, when did it become like this?"

Propping her chin with one hand, Linguang looked at the sky outside the car window and murmured, not knowing who she was asking the question.

"Look more openly, Miss Linguang, there is no kingdom in this world that can last forever. No matter how powerful or how dazzling, the sun will not never set."
