Chapter 822

thus! The throne, which had been quiet for a long time, finally ushered in a new storm! Team Kaiwu now tops the list! The former uncrowned king, Team Balon, lost the number one position due to successive losses!

Things are getting interesting. Everyone who is paying attention to the game must have felt the storm is coming!

Is it the former king who is working hard to regain his own glory, or is it the challenger of destiny who creates a new legend, or is there some dark horse hidden in the competition that makes our blood boil?

I see!

I’m also looking forward to future developments! "

…

"whispering sound."

Seeing the four-legged beast commenting on his team, Xie Wen Jie Dou, who was sitting in Treson's Beverage Shop, let out an unhappy click of his tongue.

He reached out to grab the black tea on the table, but the wound Huanglian had left on his right arm a few days ago began to hurt slightly again.

Qi Wen Jiedou frowned, and the low pressure on his body increased a bit.

At this moment, a gentle female voice actually spoke to him.

"I think you should take a good rest on your hands, quit fighting."

"...can you tell?"

Qi Wen Jiedou glanced sideways at his side. The cuckold store manager who always kept a smiling expression unexpectedly stood here silently at some point. He sighed in his heart. The adults in this city were really surprised. Whether to hide it or not, Qi Wen Jiedou subconsciously hid his right hand behind his back.

The store manager was not surprised by this reaction, she just answered his question naturally.

"It can be considered an occupational disease. Because of my previous work, I often dealt with a group of children who were easily injured. They are all very strong. If you are not sensitive, it may be too late by the time you discover it."

"Hmph. I'm different from other people. I know my own body well."

Qi Wen Jiedou, who thought she might have been a doctor before, was not interested in the store manager's past. After taking a sip of black tea, his attention turned to the advertisement about the World Tree Foundation inserted on the TV.

Look at the rhetoric in the advertisement that praises the Yggdrasil Foundation and the good lives of the citizens.

Rarely, Qi Wen Jiedou's always serious gaze became distracted. From the perspective of the store manager, he seemed to be immersed in some memories. The low pressure on his body disappeared for a while, making it impossible to see what was going on in his heart. What are you thinking.

After looking thoughtfully at the advertisement on the TV, the store manager asked with common sense.

"You care about the World Tree Foundation?"

"..."

After waking up from his brief daze, Xul Wen Jie Dou did not answer the question.

"What do you think? What do you think of the World Tree Consortium?"

"Hmm~"

Her white and slender index finger lightly applied the light lip gloss on her lips. The store manager lady looked out the window. Even though it was far away, the towering World Tree Tower was still vivid in her mind.

"From an outsider's perspective, the World Tree Foundation has given ordinary people like us a lot of conveniences. The policies here are much more relaxed than other cities, and the living standard is also very good.

If I had to choose between liking it or hating it, I would probably prefer it. "

"It's a reasonable judgment."

Qi Wen Jiedou didn't show too much emotion in response to this answer, and looked towards the tower outside the window like the store manager.

As she spoke, the store manager clapped her hands again as if she had thought of something.

"Speaking of which, I have been here once before when I was traveling around Neon. You may not know that this used to be a super rural area, completely different from the high-tech city it is now.

The World Tree Foundation is really amazing. It only took a few years to build this place like this... Huh? "

When the store manager who was excited about it turned around, she suddenly found that Kumon Jiedou had already left at some point, leaving only a few Fukuzawa Yukichi cards on the table.

"It's too much given..."

Rubbing her head in distress, the store manager always felt that this scene seemed familiar. 】

Dark Yui Ogura: Black tea people are unique in spending money lavishly.

Milky Way Eye Arisuko: I used the research funds for research at that time. Can I call it lavish?

Customer service Xiaoxiang: There is absolutely no relationship between liking black tea and spending money lavishly!

Ba｜Senior: 9494!

Full of dignity, he crouched down with his head in his arms: Even if it is a competition for financial resources, I will not lose.

Emperor: Now I feel more and more that this store manager is Miss Junchuan in "Jia Dou".

Imperial Dance: Me too.

Kasumi Shiko: Jiedou seems to be related to the Yggdrasil Foundation. The relationship is so complicated.

Eri Kashiwagi: Yes, it feels like the characters’ relationship network is extremely complicated.

[In Kaiwu’s base.

Nagasaki Soyo, who has no performance today and no part-time job arrangements, is staying here alone, curiously playing with the watermelon lock seeds in his hand.

However, no matter how she tried, the lock seed, which remained gray in color, remained unresponsive and could not be opened at all.

Although he had guessed in his mind that this should be the watermelon lock seed entering a charging state, Nagasaki Motoyo would still feel uneasy if he did not see the lock seed return to normal.

This lock seed is probably closely related to Toyokawa Shoko. If it is really broken, how should I explain to Toyokawa Shoko if I meet her in the future?

"Ah, if I had known better, I wouldn't have lent it to Honoka!"

Thinking of this, she had a headache. Nagasaki Motoyo hugged her head in distress and lay back, burying her whole body into the soft sofa in the stronghold. Her two plump legs kicked in the air irritably. together.

However, this kind of venting did not last long. Nagasaki Moyo sighed, and the feet hanging in the air swung down feebly.

"What am I talking about? In that situation, even if it happens again, it's impossible for me not to lock the seed to Honoka, right? It's better to say that Xiaoxiang will be really angry if he really refuses to save others. Bar……"

Holding the watermelon lock in her arms, Nagasaki Moyo can only pray that the watermelon lock will return to normal soon.

…

At the same time, Toyokawa Shoko, who was longed for by Nagasaki Soyo, was indeed embarrassed about the watermelon seed lock.

But what she cares about is not the charging problem that she already knew about, but that this lock seed will actually flow into the hands of the rhythm knights.

Looking at the watermelon armor in the video showing off the wild boar aliens with great power, Toyokawa Shoko's beautiful brows almost wrinkled.

"What's going on, Sid?"

"Hey, director, you are making things difficult for me. You lost the watermelon lock seed."

Only in this matter, Sid felt that he was really innocent. After all, he had never even touched the watermelon lock seed, let alone knew its whereabouts.

It's a pity that "unreasonable" is a racial talent that all bosses can learn without any teacher. Although Toyokawa Shoko was indeed choked by Sid's words, she quickly found a new tricky angle to talk about the topic after her pretty face turned slightly red. went on.

"But I have given you full authority to supervise the situation of the Rhythm Knights, haven't I? Whether it was Bravo before or the Watermelon Lock Seed this time, why didn't you notice these abnormalities in advance?"

After being struck down by a set of combos, even Sid, who had always acted so heartlessly, was suddenly unable to resist. The corners of his eyes under his jazz hat couldn't help but twitch several times.

Seeing that Sid was rendered speechless by him, Toyokawa Shoko looked like a victorious rooster, raising his light blue head with some pride. She thought she was done with the beating, and she knew how to stop when it was good.

"Forget it, it's useless to pursue these issues now. I'll ask you to make up for your mistakes later and recover the watermelon seeds. This shouldn't be too difficult, right?"

"I know, I know."

“One response is enough.”

Sighing helplessly, Sid could take over this overtime job.

However, when Sid walked out of Toyokawa Shoko's office, the helpless expression on his face instantly changed to a malicious smile.

"Even if I make mistakes in my work, are there still no doubts about me?"

The smile on Sid's lips grew as he recalled that the other party had no doubt that he had hidden someone's video because of his editing.

"Although I try my best to pretend that I know the dangers of the world, I am still just a little girl with no talent~"]

Insect Pillar: Still causing trouble! Still causing trouble!

Fengzhu: Damn, I can’t bear it, I really want to chop this piece of shit Wuhan into pieces with a knife!

Yanzhu: It’s so pitiful. Another child is being played with by Wuhan. Amitabha.

Long-term vegetarian: What a hateful guy. He actually wants to use me to deal with Xiaoxiang?

RiNG, the God of Stress: Yes, and someone didn’t seem to notice at all.

[Unlike all the forces that have their own thoughts, there are also a group of children who are completely outside the situation in Zeya City.

Unfortunately, Honoka Takasaka and Minami Kotori are currently one of them.

Because his team is now at the top of the list, the former is even more motivated to find a part-time job and starts running around Zeya City early in the morning; while the latter is not as obvious as the former, but in his heart Also very happy.

"I wonder how Haiwei is doing now. It would be great if I could share this good news with her."

Regarding Sonoda Umi, everyone in the Armor Corps has naturally opened a case with the police.

Although it has not been found yet, the procedures for entering and exiting Ze Nha City are actually quite complicated, and there is no way to smuggle people into the city. This fundamentally eliminates the possibility of external human trafficking. So far, the police have not received any relevant information. The murder case of a female high school student.

There is no way, Nan Xiaotiao and others can only comfort themselves with "no news is the best news", and privately search for Sonoda Umi everywhere in Zeya City.

But today, Nan Xiaotiao really discovered something.

On the side of a shopping mall, she found traces of plants unique to Helheim. She followed the vines and soon found a familiar crack.

The moment he saw this crack, Nan Xiaoniao suddenly had an idea.

——Yes! Since I couldn't find it after searching most of Zeya City, is Umi-chan still in that forest?

Thinking of his friend getting lost in that weird forest and starving.

Minami Kotori's heart began to tingle. After sending a message to Honoka Takasaka, she no longer had the intention to wait for the other party's reply, so she just walked in.

Thinking that Honoka Takasaka would arrive soon anyway, why not go and look for her first, what if Umi Sonoda could be found earlier?

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

What Nan Xiaotiao didn't expect was that not long after she entered Helheim, the crack that brought her here quietly closed and disappeared.

What she didn't expect was that not only her friends might exist in this forest, but there might also be monsters called aliens.

"Roar--"

When Nan Xiaoniao came back to her senses, she found that she had been surrounded by several hostile aliens. She could only helplessly turn her back to the big tree behind her, watching them swing their claws at her. 】

This scene frightened the members of μ’s in real life, as well as Minami Kotori’s chairman mother.

The latter was even more determined. He must educate his daughter well in the future and not let her run to dangerous places without thinking like in the video.

Fortunately, a man's timely appearance prevented the worst outcome.

[The red-gold knight broke into the murder scene at the critical moment, kicked out the alien closest to Nan Xiaotiao with a flying kick, and also attracted the hatred of the aliens to himself.

Nan Xiaoniao put down the arm protecting his head tremblingly, and looked at Baron who was protecting him in a daze. The man's cold and arrogant voice came from behind the armor.

"I also wanted to see which unlucky guy actually came to a place like this, and it turned out to be you."

"Are you...Jie Dou?"

"..."

Hearing this title, the corners of Qi Wen Jiedou's mouth twitched under his mask. He didn't know when he started, but he found that some guys who were not very familiar with him also inexplicably started to call him by his name directly.

——It’s strange, do I introduce myself so often? Even so, shouldn't you call them Qi Wen? Why do everyone seem to know me very well?

"Danger!"

The girl's cooing made the slightly distracted Qi Wen Jiedou immediately come back to his senses and raised his right arm to block the sneak attack of an alien.

The stinging pain from the opening of the wound caused Xuling Jiedou to pause for a moment, but it was only for a moment. The next moment, he flicked his arm to repel the alien who attacked him as if nothing was wrong, and pressed 3 consecutive times with his other hand. Cutting blade.

"Come On! Banana Sparking!"

He thrust the banana spear into the ground, and the energy of the Locked Seed was poured into the earth through the spear. A large number of energy bananas rose up from the ground, and all the incoming aliens were eliminated in an instant.

"call--"

With a long sigh of relief, Qi Wen Jiedou released his transformation.

Seeing that the battle was over, Nan Xiaoniao also stood up holding on to the big tree and looked at Qi Wen Jie Dou, who was also looking over.

"Well, uh..."

Perhaps it was the first time he was alone with this man who was difficult to get along with at first glance. Nan Xiaoniao was nervous and couldn't find any topic for a while.

Seeing her like this, whether it was intentional or not, Qi Wen Jiedou immediately withdrew his oppressive gaze, making her subconsciously relax.
