Chapter 80: Punishment From Xiqi

"What, King is here, and he brought C-class hero Shazam?" Xiqi answered the phone in surprise. He remembered that he just asked Shazam to come.

Also, why would a C-class hero have an intersection with an S-class hero?

Xiqi couldn't figure it out at all, but he had to be prepared to receive him. There were also strong and weak S-class heroes, but the strength and weakness were not divided according to the ranking.

For example, King, although King was only 7th in the S-class ranking, in Xiqi's heart, King's ability was incomparable, at least most of the S-class heroes were not as good as King.

Although Xiqi had never seen King fight, any rumors and speculations could prove King's strength, and few people in the Hero Association would doubt this.

As for the monsters who had seen King take action, none of them survived.

And such a powerful S-class hero actually came to him with the C-class hero Shazam. Obviously, King should also know about Shazam.

"King, you're here." Xiqi smiled at King who came out of the elevator. At this time, the only S-class hero on duty was Child Emperor.

King nodded and said, "I heard about Shazam and wanted to come and see it together."

"No problem, it's not a big deal." Xiqi smiled awkwardly and pointed to the meeting room next to him: "Let's go over there and talk."

"Minister Xiqi, I'm thirsty, can you pour me a glass of water?" Leto said at this time.

Xiqi was obviously stunned. Although he saw that Leto's lips were a little pale, a C-class hero actually asked him, the minister, to pour him water.

It's really rare to see this. At least since he took office, no C-class hero has spoken to him like this, especially a newcomer.

However, a C-class newcomer can catch King's eye, obviously this C-class newcomer is not simple. At least Xiqi knows that the combat power of this Shazam in front of him should be stronger than that of the Smiling Superman.

"Please take a seat, I'll go get some water." After leaving the conference room, Xiqi called a staff member, "Please get two glasses of water, no, three glasses."

"Yes." The man immediately went to get some water.

When the water was brought over, Leto grabbed the cup and drank it. In a blink of an eye, all three glasses of water were drunk by him.

"This..." Xiqi was dumbfounded. He was afraid that Leto would be too thirsty, so he asked someone to pour three glasses of water, but one of them was prepared for King.

"This Shazam has no sense at all. How did he know King?" Xiqi was very confused.

"Go get a few glasses of water." Xiqi said to the staff behind him.

"Yes." The staff was also shocked. Who is this guy in a red tights? He looks more famous than King.

"I don't care, Xiqi. If you have anything to say, just talk to Shazam directly." King spoke at this time.

"Okay, let me make it short." Xiqi thought for a moment, looked at the drunk Leto and asked: "Did you send Smile Superman to the hospital?"

Leto said nonchalantly: "Yes, I sent that guy to the hospital. It's my fault that I didn't use enough force. I almost killed him."

King subconsciously glanced at Leto. Is the A-level hero so weak, or is Shazam, Leto's friend, really that strong?

But if Shazam is strong, there will be no C-level hero ranking in the hero assessment.

Xiqi knows a little bit, and he has also read the information of the C-level newcomers this time, especially the outstanding ones.

Shazam is one of them. Although the theoretical assessment score is basically zero, he is very good in other aspects. The association wants to see if Shazam has growth potential, so he is positioned in C-level.

Among the current S-level heroes, many have experienced C-level heroes, so even if Shazam is good in other aspects, he can only be a C-level hero.

"Who said sparring first?" Xiqi continued to ask.

"Smiling Superman said he wanted to spar with me, so I agreed. Everyone in the game hall heard it." Leto is not stupid enough to say that he asked for a sparring match. In fact, it was really Smiling Superman who spoke first.

"Was Mr. King present at the time?" Xiqi looked at King at this time.

"Oh, I was busy at the time and was not in Z City." King said calmly.

"Electric Shazam, as a C-level rookie, although it was Smiling Superman who asked to spar with you first, you can also refuse. He can't do anything to you. Now you have seriously injured him, and the association needs to be held accountable." Xiqi wanted to teach Shazam a lesson, but King came with him today.

It also means that Shazam is telling him in disguise that King is the one standing behind him.

And Smiling Superman is the strongest existence in their family. The other brothers are all B-level and C-level, without a strong backing.

After weighing the pros and cons, Xiqi also knew what to do. It is unrealistic to really punish Shazam, but at least it is necessary to give Smiling Superman, who is lying in the hospital, some psychological comfort.

Leto wanted to say that he could beat the Smiling Man, so why should he refuse?

But he didn't say this. After all, he was still a C-class hero. Although he was very brave after drinking, he was the one who was seriously injured in this incident, so he was in the wrong.

Siqi is a minister after all. To put it bluntly, if Siqi doesn't like Leto, he can make things difficult for him in all aspects. In this way, even if King wants to help Siqi, he has an excuse.

In the end, Siqi and Leto discussed that as a punishment, Leto's ranking could not rise this week, but it would not fall either.

He just needs to do the tasks issued by the association. Leto needs to help wherever there are monsters in a week.

This is also an excuse for Siqi to test Shazam's true strength. If Shazam is really powerful, it is normal to improve his ranking afterwards.

"Since Electric Shazam has admitted his mistakes and accepted the punishment, the association will not pursue it too much. It's just that the heroes should live in harmony. After all, in an era where monsters are rampant, humans need unity." Siqi was about to leave.

"Minister Siqi is right, but I'm a little sleepy. Can I sleep here?"

Leto's words stunned Siqi and King for a moment. Siqi looked at Leto in surprise: "Do you want to sleep here?"

"Can I?" Leto asked.

"Yes, yes." Xiqi glanced at King beside him.

King actually wanted to go back, but Shazam wanted to sleep here. He would have to pay for it himself, which was not okay.

Let's go back together tomorrow morning, and I can reimburse his car fare last night.

"I'll stay here for one night too."

"That's great. With Mr. King and Child Emperor, it will be absolutely safe tonight. By the way, Mr. King, do you need me to arrange a room for you?" Xiqi said happily.

"Arrange a double room. It's not good for him to sleep here." King stood up.

"Okay, I'll ask someone to arrange it right away." Xiqi glanced at Leto who was about to fall asleep. He didn't know who this guy was. He had a special relationship with King!
