Airl smiled helplessly: "So, this world is now occupied by humans. Since the Chaos War, have you heard of any area that has been ruled by monsters?"
Napa was a little speechless, the cat floated up, raised its paw and lightly touched Airl's nose, but quickly retracted the pink meat ball as if it had been scalded——
"Your health is worse than this morning. You need a good rest... But after listening to your meeting all day today, I am starting to worry. In case you collapse all of a sudden, that Viscount Norris will start using other method to target our guild, what should we do?"
Hearing this, Ai Luo became a little more energetic, and he smiled wickedly: "Oh~~~ You finally admit that I am the strongest in our guild~~? Finally admit that I have no power, and I have no strength. Ordinary humans without magical affinity are the most essential for this guild~~~?"
The cat turned around Airl again, but there was no intention of joking in those blue eyes: "Speak seriously, you need to rest as soon as possible now. Go to sleep after answering my questions, don't Just kidding and wasting your energy."
Airl pouted, pretending to be a little unhappy.But when he saw that the cat didn't want to coax him at all, he could only sigh, leaning on the table, clutching the scarf, and slowly stood up——
"In some respects, economic warfare may be more terrifying than physical warfare, and more tormenting people's minds. But from another perspective, economic warfare will not be as quick as physical warfare. Let me briefly Rest for a few days... After I regain my energy, if there is any problem, I will come back to solve it..."
As he spoke, he glanced at the slowly drifting snowflakes outside the window, and a strong sense of tiredness welled up in his heart.The president yawned, and the scenery in front of him began to blur——
"Napa, I may not be able to wait for everyone to come back...I'm going to sleep for a while now...Don't call me if there's nothing to do, and if there's anything...Please try not to call me."
While talking, he went upstairs and pushed open the door of his room. After entering, he didn't even have time to drag his clothes and scarf. He lay on the bed, pulled the quilt, and fell asleep soundly.
Napa accompanied him upstairs, seeing that the president had fallen asleep with the door wide open, she could only shake her head.
After it closed the door of Airl's room, the members came back one after another. After dinner, they were ready to participate in tonight's game.
Seeing this scene, Napa could only relax, fully trusting that the economic war in Elona would not break out in a short time, and comforted the guild members with peace of mind.

"Brother President, are you really okay?"
Once the president of Song of the Mermaid is plagued by illness, the members of the guild will feel like they have no backbone.
Although they can see their own president getting up and going downstairs every day, chatting and laughing with everyone, checking the account books of the past day, and asking if there is any problem.There was always a smile on his face, as if he was really getting better day by day.
But since the president fell ill, he never participated in a guild war, nor did he go out once.Leave everything to the guild members to take care of, and let them act according to their own experience and the operation manual left by the president.
Although this also represents Airl's complete trust in them, but these members still have no confidence in their hearts.
Chapter 150 VII Retreating the Enemy Easily
Early this morning, Ke Ke once again looked at the president's room on the second floor with a worried face.
Cream tidied up the bookkeeping book in his hand and put it under his arm: "Don't worry, doesn't the president come down to talk to us every night? You just listen to the vice president, now the president needs more information. Take a good rest and take care of your body as much as possible. Only in this way can you devote yourself to work more energetically." Ke Ke rubbed the corner of her skirt and said a little unhappy: "But the elder brother has been like this for ten consecutive days... ...Why hasn't this disease healed yet? Uncle Saint Bread, can you treat the elder brother of the president?"
The sanctuary also seemed very helpless now, sighed and said: "Ke Ke, not any ailment in this world can be cured by magic. Just like us priests can't stop death, human beings will get sick sometimes, we are the only All we can do is let him rest well."
After saying this, the holy cake seemed to feel that he didn't comfort the child well, and quickly added: "But don't worry, it's just because it's winter and the weather is relatively cold, so the recovery is slower. Just like me It took me so long to recover to seven or eighty-eight."
Ke Ke pouted, with an expression of disbelief: "But Uncle Saint Cake, you have been using powerful light magic..."
Now, the sanctuary could only smile and stopped talking.
Brad over there shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Okay, let's work hard! Then earn a lot of gold coins and come back. When you see the gold coins, the president's illness will be cured! Let's go out now—"
Opening the door, Brad's footsteps that he had planned to step out stopped at this moment.
The snow that fell all night has now stopped, and the cleared streets are only left with a little snow near the corner, which represents the cold season now.
But compared to this winter, which is not at all icy cold, the person in front of him instilled that icy feeling into Brad's heart all at once.
Especially Buffy on his shoulder, immediately curled up in Brad's pocket after seeing the person in front of the gate, and could only sneak out half of his head to look at this person.
"Who... are you looking for?"
No matter how stupid Brad is, after staying in Song of the Mermaid for a long time, he can more or less feel that the person in front of him is definitely not here to entrust missions or to bond with each other.At that moment, he stepped back half a step slightly, put on a slightly confronting posture, and asked.
The person outside the door wore a broad bowler hat on his head, with a peacock feather on the brim of the hat, which added a little color to the man in black.
The man put his hands in the pockets of the large robe and windbreaker, and walked into the guild without caring about Brad's appearance. He raised his head and looked at the guild hall.
He looks about 35 or six, with a fair face and no beard.But there was an undisguised sharpness in those eyes.
Behind this person were two people who looked like guards. They followed this person into the gate of the guild, and it seemed that they really refused to take a step away from their master.
Seeing Brad's tense posture, Cream from behind quickly stepped up to block the soldier.
After observing the visitor for a while, Cream's face began to overflow with a smile like Airl's: "Excuse me, what do you need?"
This man kept looking around the entire guild hall, as if he didn't hear Cream's question at all.After observing for a while, he slowly came to the rest area to sit down, and said slowly: "Which one is the president of your guild?"
Ke Ke involuntarily glanced towards the second floor from the corner of his eyes, this small movement did not escape the man's eyes.At this time, Cream over there also came forward, wanting to sit down opposite this person.But before his butt could move over, the guard behind the man suddenly pulled out a sword and thrust it into the seat opposite, shouting loudly: "Just because you are qualified to sit on an equal footing with our master?!"
Seeing this saber, Cream's expression also began to look a little strange.It's just that the thief still suppressed the smile on his face, but stretched his hands towards his waist.
"Hahaha, why are you so angry? Our Song of the Mermaid Guild has always been kind to people, do you know where we can help you?"
Up to now, the oldest sanctuary present finally intervened.Leaning on his staff, he slowly came to this man and looked at him.
The man's eyes caught the wafer, and immediately saw his staff and the very recognizable robes on his body.A little puzzlement and doubt flickered in his eyes, but he quickly raised his hand to let his guard take back his saber.
"I didn't expect to be able to meet His Excellency the High Priest in such a remote place? Well, this makes sense. So the church is behind this guild war? I'm blind."
The sanctuary smiled, and sat down opposite the man.
"If the church really intervenes in the winter entertainment of the guild war, then I have nothing to say. I just didn't expect that the church, which has always been saving lives and healing the wounded, is upright and not for profit, this time It's so... 'interesting'? This is really beyond my expectation."
The sanctuary thought for a while, rubbed her finger on the staff, and said, "I have said so much, but I don't know who you are? At least let us know who we offended and which one we offended." A nobleman wants to trouble our guild?"
The man snorted slightly, and the guard at the side immediately said: "The one in front of you is the lord of Xihu City, His Excellency Norris Double-faced Viscount, who was bestowed the title by His Majesty the Emperor himself! Now, you know who you are in front of. Salute it!"

The guard's roar didn't surprise everyone in the guild. After all, Napa had told everyone more or less in the past few days that the lord of Lagoon City wanted to participate in this guild war.
It's just that Airl's plan at the time was too much, and it was too detailed and thorough. As a monster, Napa didn't understand much, and naturally she couldn't tell the members much.
The sanctuary turned back slightly, looked at the other guild members for a moment, then continued to smile and said: "Well, we understand. Your Excellency Viscount Norris, if you say something about our mermaid song, of course there is no problem, but I As the high priest of the Holy See of Light, even if I don’t want to, I should try my best to maintain the reputation of our Holy See. You slander our Holy See so casually... Anyway, it’s not very good, right?”
Needless to say, the importance of the Holy See of Light, and the words spoken by the high priest can be understood in different ways.
Of course Norris knew what he meant by questioning the Holy See, and if he could, he would not want to have any entanglements with the Holy See.
At that moment, His Excellency the Viscount nodded slightly, and said slowly: "Of course, Your Excellency the High Priest, I didn't slander you at will. It's just that what Song of the Mermaid did this time is really...surprised. I'm really very happy I want to meet the president of your guild. The legendary high-achieving student who graduated from the Old Tengshu Academy."
While saying this, Norris raised his head and glanced at Arrow's room on the second floor——
"I don't know if you could please inform me so that I can see with my own eyes what this President Airl looks like, so that I can understand exactly who I am playing against."
"Brother President...will not see you now!"
When it comes to Arrow, Coco immediately becomes excited.At some point, undead soldiers and skeleton dogs were already standing on both sides of her. Such thorough preparation seemed to give the little girl a little courage.
Norris' face was still so gloomy and cold, facing Coco's "roar", he hardly raised an eyebrow.
Seeing this, the holy cake could only smile and said: "It may be inconvenient for our president now, and, can you explain in detail what happened to you, our president? As far as I know, the past few days, the president I have been in the guild all the time, and I have never stepped out. So, can you please explain more clearly? This way I can inform you."
Seeing that he couldn't see Arrow no matter what, the gloomy look on Norris' face twitched slightly.
But facing the High Priest of the Bright Holy See in front of him, he couldn't say anything.After all, knowing that the Holy See may have a hand in this guild war, then I can really give up on it.
"In this case, I will visit President Airl later. Please send my regards to your President."
After finishing speaking, Norris didn't want to continue to entangle with these people any longer. He straightened up, ignored the guild members of Song of the Mermaid behind him, and strode out of the guild gate.
"Slow down~~~Don't send~~~!"
Seeing these people leave, Ke Ke immediately rushed to the front with an extremely happy expression.After the last bodyguard left, the little girl waved her staff, and Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei closed the gate of the guild together.
"Huh! It looks like it's very powerful, but you didn't expect it? My elder brother is even more powerful!"
Now Coco is like eating honey, and the smile of the whole person seems sweet——
"The elder brother of the president is really amazing! He was sick, and he didn't even take a step out of the guild, and he was able to let this Viscount Norris come to admit defeat in person! Hey, Uncle Holy Cake, what method did the president use? Why? Doesn't it look so effective?"
The sanctuary also looked helpless now, and the other members all turned their heads to look at the vice president who was lying on the counter and sleeping soundly.
It's a pity that the vice president is currently immersed in the sweetest dream, and he doesn't seem to wake up at all.
Chapter 150 Eight After Admitting Failure
Compared to the jubilation in Song of the Mermaid, on this warm winter street, the slow-moving carriage does not look so happy.
Compared with the happy and smiling crowd on the street, Viscount Norris's face was always so gloomy and cold. He looked at the passing crowd and the food in their hands, with a serious expression on his face. With smiles, everyone happily talked about the previous battles, discussing how exciting the game will be tonight.
Seeing all this, the viscount's fist couldn't help but tightened.
A guard was driving in front of the carriage, and the guard who stuck his sword into the seat just now was sitting in the carriage with the viscount.The guard's face was cloudy and uncertain. After seeing the viscount's silent expression, he didn't dare to speak for a long time.
The carriage came to the side of the arena. Even though it was only morning, there were already people lining up here, hoping to buy one or two good seats.
Looking across the crude arena, but everything seemed to be in order, Viscount Norris suddenly said——
"If this guild war is held in Xiehu City, how many times do you think we can achieve this small town." The guard was slightly stunned, and after thinking for a while, he quickly said: "It will definitely be able to achieve three times... …No, at least five times! Because the biggest thing Pelican Town can radiate is our Lagoon City, but if our Lagoon City really holds such an event, it can radiate to several more distant towns and some cities. Moreover, the venue in our city is bigger and there are more activities, after several times of hosting, our Xiehu City will definitely change from such a small city to a big city that can not lose to the capital, Hanhai City!"
"Then tell me, why did I get beaten up by the president of Mermaid Song after I listened to your suggestion and made the decision to acquire all the store management rights in Pelican Town? It caused me to lose hundreds of gold coins in vain?"
Although Viscount Norris's voice seemed very flat, it seemed that he was just talking about something completely unrelated to himself.But the guard who heard this sentence still couldn't help but tremble all over, and the cold sweat broke out uncontrollably on his back.
"This... this is because... because..."
"Because of what? Because your plan was faulty? Or because the way I executed it was stupid?"
Viscount Norris continued to look at the prosperous street outside the window, and said slowly——
"Before I followed your suggestion to buy the entire Pelican Town, neither of us would have thought that the townspeople of Pelican Town would be able to take the action of 'sell some, never sell some'."
"I'm still very surprised. They all said they would consider the shops, but suddenly some of them agreed to sell them the next day. I was very happy at first, thinking that our plan was a success."
"But then I discovered that there are still some shops that refuse to sell even if we raise the purchase price twice."
"At the beginning, you said that the residents of the marginal towns were relatively conservative and would rather keep their management rights than sell them. But as the acquisition went smoothly, I finally found out that those who agreed to sell the management rights All of the shops in this small town have the same or similar business items.”
"In other words, even if I acquire the operating rights of those stores, as long as there are similar stores operating in Pelican Town, I will never be able to monopolize them. No matter how they say they are local snakes, even if I mobilize a large number Businesses from Lagoon City came to seize it, and it was impossible to raise prices when there was competition from local products.”
"Moreover, most of the people who come here to watch the guild war come from our city of Lagoon. They are already familiar with the products of our city of Lagoon. Naturally, they will not pay high prices for products that are originally from Lagoon city. In comparison, they are more willing to buy some local specialty products in Pelican Town. In other words, it is impossible for me to earn back the money used to buy the management rights.”
"Hmph, I spent money, but I didn't achieve my original purpose at all. And my business behavior has been seen through by the other party first, and the other party used it to beat me up and make me lose money. What do you think, my loss Where should I find it?"
With that said, the viscount finally turned his face to the guard in front of him, and said coldly——
"What do you say? Crowbar Mr. Faithless."
Hearing the viscount directly calling his name, Crowbar's expression changed drastically!He suddenly jumped up from his seat, knelt down in front of the Viscount, his back was covered with cold sweat, and said tremblingly: "Your Excellency, Viscount! I...I really didn't expect...but you... You have to know, I am completely for you! I really... really... want to make money for Your Excellency the Viscount... if it wasn't for the president of Mermaid Song... if it wasn't for that bastard! I... I ..."
