Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

"I can no longer continue to be your agent. Now that Ball Pharmaceuticals has noticed you, this is my chance to get out of it."

Listening to Manna's explanation, Li Ang also understood his plan.

All of this was the voluntary action of that minister, and Manna could pick himself out of this vortex without leaving a trace, and hide back in the dark again.

Manna probably didn't pin her hopes on Li Ang at all. Li Ang and that minister were just targets to attract the attention of Boer Pharmaceutical... The money really wasn't that easy to earn.

"Then if there is any accident, how should I contact you?"

"If you need anything, you can contact me at this address."

Manna took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and threw them into Li Ang's hands, "This is also the reward I paid you in advance, but I suggest you go alone without everyone's attention."

"There is a surprise waiting for you there." Manna took a deep look at Li Ang.

……

What happened in the next period of time also developed as Manna expected.

After the two of them returned to the company that day, the fat pig really took the initiative to deliver it to the door, and transferred Manna to an unknown position, and he acted as Li Ang's manager.

In order to stop Li Ang's mouth, that minister also shed a lot of blood, but he also got more things because of it, which was pain and happiness.

He thought he had picked up a big deal, but he didn't know that this was just the beginning of a nightmare. If what Li Ang and Manna did were exposed, the minister would definitely bear the brunt of it. One can imagine what would happen to him then.

But Li Ang didn't have the slightest sympathy in his heart, all of this was his own fault, and there was nothing to feel sorry for.

Under the full operation of that minister, the traces of Manna disappeared from Li Ang's life. Even Li Ang took the initiative to walk around the headquarters of Bell Health Products, but he could not be found.

If it weren't for that bunch of keys, Li Ang would have thought that the deal with him was an illusion, and he really didn't know where he was hiding and what he was doing now.

Li Ang also didn't have the chance to find out the address on the bunch of keys. During this period of time, he was really, really busy. Apart from the competitions arranged by the company, various people came to him every day to find out. cooperate.

Although the character of that minister is a bit scumbag, he still has the most basic ability. Even so, they are still very busy every day.

After signing contracts with several companies, the equipment on Li Ang's body has taken on a new look. The genuine armor produced by the Howling Guards, the weapons produced by Brilliant Shield Industry, and the emergency treatment system of Boer Pharmaceuticals - which are equipped with normal first-aid medicines. Adding the gibberish can save a life in a life-threatening situation.

Although they are not the treasures of various companies, they are also good things that cannot be bought on the market.

Without the support of any knights, Li Ang won and lost the game during this period of time. Li Ang has always controlled himself very well and did not show too outrageous strength. When he is a player, he will also take the initiative to count.

Li Ang's points in the special championship are steadily rising, and now as long as he wins a few more regular games, he will be able to get a ticket to the main game. Casimir's major newspapers, because of this rising star Nova started a carnival.

His strength has been recognized as a second-level knight, and he is one of the strong contenders for the top eight of the special championship. Every time he appears in a game, he will attract a large number of spectators, and Li Ang can also get a lot of shares for this.

Today Li Ang came to the arena again, but this time he didn't come to participate in the competition, but came here to watch the battle.

"Brother Ren, are you ready?"

Today is a very important game for Rennes. As long as he can win this game, he can be promoted to a fourth-level knight, but if he loses...at least during the special championship, he cannot have Such an opportunity.

"...To be honest, I'm not very sure."

Ren looked at Li Ang, who was covered in armor, and replied with a wry smile.

Chapter 31 佐菲娅

Time travels back to not so long ago.

As usual, Adele came to the Linguang family's manor.

Ever since taking over Sarah's work, Adele has come here every day. The manpower needed to take care of such a huge manor every day is amazing. However, the Linguang family has declined and cannot afford to hire so many people. manpower.

Including Sarah, Linguang's family only employed three people in total. Adele met those two people once during this period, but they were just acquaintances. The eldest lady—Maria has a good relationship... although she usually doesn't look like a young lady.

The age of the two is similar, because of the family relationship, before Linguang's family declined, she rarely had contact with her peers, and the two gradually became acquainted with each other after coming and going.

After finishing her work, Adele would also borrow the rooms in this manor. Although Linguang's house has declined, the various facilities inside the manor are still in good condition, which can bring a lot to Adele. s help.

If Adele is willing, she can even move directly to this manor, and Maria is not someone who cares about these details.

But Adele also needs to take care of the pregnant Sarah. As time goes by, Sarah's belly is getting bigger day by day, and things that are usually easy to do have become a little difficult.

But at this critical moment, as her husband, Ryan had to run around for his livelihood and could not be by her side.

Adele could only travel back and forth between these two places every day, and she was very busy every day, but Sarah took them in, which was what Adele should do, so she didn't complain too much.

Time passed by in such a peaceful and substantial way, and Adele gradually had some clues about how to restore the notebook left by her father, and she only made a cautious attempt not long ago.

At this time, Adele had just finished working today, and was resting in the hall of the mansion with Maria.

Maria also tossed about in her small workshop all morning. She really likes things related to machinery. Even if it is the rest time now, she is still unwilling to let go of the few parts in her hand.

"Maria, I'll come and see you."

An energetic voice came from far away, and after a while, he pushed open the door of the mansion and walked in, "I thought you were still staying in the workshop and refused to come out."

"Auntie?! Why are you here?"

Seeing the young woman who came in, Maria froze for a moment, then quickly dropped the things in her hand and went up to her.

"Don't call me aunt!"

The woman Maria called her aunt looked a little annoyed, knocked her on the head and said, "I'm only five years older than you! You make me look old by saying that."

"Hey... But you are my aunt." Maria smiled foolishly, not taking what she just said to heart, and still calling her aunt in her own way.

"...Forget it, you can do whatever you want."

The woman held her forehead and waved her hands weakly.

She has almost gotten used to it after correcting it so many times without correcting it, but every time she hears Maria call out like this, she seems to be ten years old out of thin air, which somewhat makes her feel a little unwilling.

"By the way, Maria, why don't you introduce this lady to me? Is she your friend?"

The woman looked at Adele on the side. She noticed Adele on the side as soon as she entered the house, and only now had the opportunity to ask.

"Ah, I forgot to mention just now, this is Aiyafala. Sister Sarah is pregnant, so she asked Aiyafala to replace her work during this time."

"This is Aunt Zofia. Don't look at her like this. Aunt is a very powerful competitive knight."

Maria pulled them together and introduced each other.

"What do you mean don't look at me like this... Just call me Zofia."

Although at first I thought Zofia was a bit domineering, but after getting along with her, I realized that Zofia was just used to speaking in such a tone, and she was actually not difficult to get along with.

In fact, this is also inseparable from her profession. Although Zofia is a competitive knight, she has her own unique title, but it is only a "former" competitive knight. After being injured in the last special championship, Zofia I have retired and now I am working as a coach.

I usually reprimand those brats a lot, and Zofia's way of speaking inevitably has this taste.

"Where's Manna? Why didn't you see him? Isn't he still working in that broken company?"

After staying in the mansion for a while, Zofia didn't see that annoying figure, so she couldn't help asking.

Uncle Manna... At the mention of this name, Maria's expression became a little strange.

"What's the matter? What happened?" Zofia was worthy of being a former competitive knight, and caught Maria's abnormal expression in an instant.

"It's nothing." Maria shook her head hastily.

Maria originally wanted to tell her that her sister had returned to Casimir, but she remembered Manna's warning to her, so she quickly covered up the anomaly just now.

"I haven't seen my uncle for a while, and I don't know what he's up to."

Without seeing Manna, she has no way of knowing about her sister's situation. Although Maria dislikes her uncle very much, she also knows that she must not make trouble at such a time.

Manna hates it a bit, and even seems to be against Maria everywhere, but Maria has to admit that Manna is still very reliable in various major matters.

Zofia didn't want to talk too much about Manna's affairs, so when she heard that he was not here, she simply put it aside.

"Forget it, let's not mention that guy, Maria, what do you do next? If you have time, would you like to watch a few games with me?"

The competition here naturally refers to the knight competition.

"I have time! Of course I have time!" Maria immediately agreed upon hearing this.

Maria is a fairly typical Casimir, how could she not be interested in knightly competitions?It's just that her pocket money is usually invested in the workshop, and she has no money to buy tickets for the arena. If Zofia would occasionally help her out, Maria might have difficulty even buying new clothes.

"By the way, since you are Maria's friend, do you want to come with me?"

Zofia naturally also extended an invitation to Adele, "It's fine for me to bring two more people in."

"Well...Actually, I'm not very interested in knightly competitions..." Adele said a little coyly.

For the fighting and killing activities such as knight competitions, Adele couldn't arouse the slightest interest at all, and she didn't know what the fun was at all.

In her opinion, instead of going to the arena to watch the game and wasting time, it is more useful to sit in the room and read two more books. This may be the biggest difference between the Letanians and the Casimirs.

"Come on, Aiyafala, you stay in the house all day, don't you feel bored?" Maria grabbed Adele's hands and shook them lightly, "Just think of going out with me Finished playing."

"Okay, okay..."

Maria had already begged like this, and Adele was too embarrassed to refuse, so she reluctantly agreed.

Chapter 32 Scarlet

"There are so many people~"

There were dense crowds all around, and after Maria came out, she ran around excitedly, unable to calm down at all.

Seeing Maria running around, Zofia couldn't help shouting, "Maria! Be careful not to get lost, you won't be able to enter the arena alone."

"I'm sorry." Maria finally calmed down and obediently returned to Zofia's side.

The people gathered here are basically spectators who are going to the arena to watch the game. Such a lively scene is rare in Letania, where the pace of life is much slower than this.

At this time, the preliminaries of the special championship were in full swing, and the arenas in the city were almost full for 24 hours, and there were countless competitive knights fighting on the arena every minute and every second.

Therefore, the quality of the games is mostly uneven, and whether you can see exciting games is purely luck.

Anyway, she just came out to relax, so Zofia didn't choose much, she just found a large arena that was relatively close, and brought the two of them over.

They didn't buy tickets for the arena at all before, but there was no need to worry about it at all, as Maria was somewhat special.

Zofia was one of the top sixteen of the last special championship. Even though she has retired now, her treatment is much better than that of ordinary knights.

The special championship has been held for more than 20 sessions. Excluding those who have died and participated in many special championships, the remaining sixteen are only a few dozens of people. Compared with the huge group of competitive knights, it is a Very rare numbers.

Zofia led them to the entrance of the arena, and after showing their IDs, the arena specially sent someone to respectfully lead them in through a separate passage.

Naturally, they don't have to compete with ordinary spectators for the seats below. There are VIP boxes specially prepared for them in the arena. Through specially configured camera drones, they can see the arena clearly even if they are sitting in the high boxes. Every plant and tree on it.

"It's amazing, Auntie. I've never watched a game in a place like this." Maria fumbled around in the box excitedly. The only few times she had watched games, she sat down there. in the auditorium.

"Of course, no matter what I say, it was once the top sixteen. Ordinary people can't enjoy this kind of treatment." When she said these words, Zofia couldn't help but feel a little proud.

If there is any difference between watching the game here and watching the broadcast at home, it is probably that you can freely control the drone and watch the game from any angle you want.

Instead of staying in the chaotic auditorium, Adele didn't resist as much as she did at the beginning, and began to fiddle with the equipment provided in the box with some curiosity. These things were quite new to her.

Maria also came up very enthusiastically and explained to Adele how to control these things.

On the other side, Zofia was also looking at the list of contestants for this competition, and after a cursory glance, she said absent-mindedly, "Well, all the players participating in the competition are fourth- and fifth-level knights. , this game... is still something to watch."

For ordinary people, knights of the fourth and fifth levels are already masters that are not usually accessible, but for Zofia, knights of this level are not enough. Those knights she usually trains, just pick one All come out with this level of strength.

But Maria was very interested in it. When she and Adele looked through the competition process together, Adele saw a very familiar name.

"Brother Ren?" Adele couldn't help saying.

"Huh? Why, is there someone you know here?" Zofia glanced at her and asked.

"Hmm...Brother Ren is Sister Sarah's husband. I didn't expect to see him here." Adele pointed to Ren's information on the screen.

"Is that so?"

Although Zofia didn't come to Guang Manor many times because of Manna, she still had a little impression of Sarah. Now that she met her husband here, Zofia was somewhat curious.

It was marked on the list that Ren was a fifth-level knight, but when Zofia opened the detailed information, she was taken aback by the dense record displayed on it.

"Is this guy crazy?"

Hearing Zofia's exclamation, the other two also cast puzzled eyes.

"You two watch it for yourself." Zofia pushed the tablet in front of the two of them, "Since the start of the special championship, your brother Ryan has been participating in various competitions crazily, and there is one game every day on average. Aren't you afraid that your body will collapse?"

Cavaliers are originally a sport that consumes a lot of energy. Generally speaking, you will only participate in one game a week, and the rest of the time will be used to recuperate your body.

This frequency of once a day... no one can last for too long.

"After this competition is over, it's best to persuade your elder brother to stop messing around like this." Zofia said very seriously.

"...I know, but I think Brother Ren will definitely not listen to my advice."
