"Give me back the phone! I have something to ask her!" Zofia angrily snatched the phone back from Li Ang's hands.
Li Ang shrugged, so he didn't resist, and let her snatch the phone away.
After what Sarah said just now, Li Ang probably guessed what happened... Neither Adele nor Maria, they had no accidents, but Zofia was a little unlucky, and they kept it hidden. Just in the drum.
"Hello? Sarah is me, Zofia. I heard what you just said. When did Margaret come back? Is Maria with her now?"
"Zo, Miss Zofia?"
Hearing a sudden change of voice on the phone, Sarah panicked for a moment, and after a while, she said in a slightly embarrassing manner, "I met Margaret five days ago, but they left at that time, I I don't know where they went."
Zofia also knew that it was pointless to continue to question Sarah, so she just exchanged pleasantries with Sarah, asked about the situation when she met Margaret, and then hung up the phone.
"Damn... What are these two bastards doing without telling me?" Zofia stomped her feet angrily, and the phone was creaked by her, as if it would be crushed by her in the next second.
"Won't the puzzle be solved like this? The two of them didn't encounter any accidents, they were just with Maria's sister." Li Ang said very easily.
If he was with the apostles, Li Ang would have nothing to worry about.
Who knew, Zofia shook her head solemnly, "No, it's not that simple, you're not from Casimir, so you don't know what Margaret's return means."
Now that Leon already knew about Margaret's existence, there was no need for Zofia to hide it. Instead, she explained to Leon why she was so worried.
"Have you ever heard of 'Bright Knight'?"
"Yao Knight?" Li Ang replied after being stunned for a moment, "That seems to be the title of the champion of the last special championship?"
"That's right." Zofia nodded, "Margaret is the champion of the last special championship, Yao Knight, but that's not the point."
"The point is, Margaret's behavior angered some people. They used despicable means to make Margaret an 'infected person'... In the end, the Supervisory Committee permanently expelled her from Casimir .”
"If the Supervisory Commission discovers that she has returned to Casimir... things will be a little troublesome." Zofia said worriedly.
Hearing this, Li Ang couldn't help but frowned. According to Zofia's words, things were indeed troublesome.
She was framed as an infected person and expelled from the country by Casimir's government agencies. I really don't know what Margaret did three years ago to cause such a big trouble. What she did... No wonder she had to carefully conceal her name at that time.
"However, she hasn't been exposed yet, and things haven't reached the worst point yet." After thinking about it, Li Ang said very easily.
If Margaret's whereabouts were exposed, the major media should now report the news of the return of the 'Yao Knight' like a shark smelling blood, instead of not hearing even a little bit of news like it is now.
"... That's true." Zofia hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "But we still can't leave them alone, we must find them."
However, this has nothing to do with Li Ang.
After knowing that Adele had no accident and Zofia's false alarm, the rest was the internal affairs of their Linguang family, and he had no reason to intervene without authorization.
Afterwards, if Adele can be contacted, she should also be warned not to continue getting involved in this matter. This kind of matter involving open and secret struggles between various forces should naturally be avoided as much as possible.
Just as Zofia was pacing back and forth in the living room, thinking about how to find those two guys, a loud noise suddenly came from the next room.
"Whoa-"
It sounded like a glass window shattering.
"What's the sound?" Zofia stopped in her tracks for an instant, and looked in the direction of the sound very vigilantly.
"...It's Manna who's back." Li Ang answered Zofia's question.
In Li Ang's perception, someone smashed the glass of the window next door and fell to the ground in embarrassment.
Judging from the aura emanating from the other party, this person should be Manna, but...he seems to be in a bad state right now. Manna's breath of life is very weak, like a candle in the wind, ready to burst at any time. There is a possibility of extinguishing.
"It seems that something happened to Manna, I'll go and check the situation." Li Ang walked towards the place where the voice came from without hesitation.
"Eh? Wait for me!" Zofia froze for a moment, then quickly set off to catch up with Li Ang.
In the next room, they saw Manna lying in a pool of blood.
ps. I am in good health. I went to the hospital because my grandfather has terminal liver cancer and needs interventional surgery, so the update may be unstable recently.
Chapter 59 Waking Up
"Maena!"
Seeing Manna who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, Li Ang hurriedly leaned over and tested his breath.
Fortunately, although Manna's breath is very weak, he is still alive at least, and he should be able to be rescued with hard work, but... what happened?
At this time, Manna was not wearing his usual suit, but a set of very rare light armor made of unknown special materials, which seemed to be more powerful than the plasticizing gel provided by the whistling guards. a bit.
However, now this extraordinary armor has been completely scrapped, and the entire armor is covered with countless dense and small scars, and some places with relatively weak defenses have been torn to pieces, exposing a bloody wound underneath.
This kind of injury... is like throwing Manna into a meat grinder. Ordinary weapons can never cause such fine wounds.
"What is he doing here? How did he get hurt like this?" Zofia was taken aback by Manna's tragic state.
"Now is not the time to talk about such things," Li Ang said without turning his head, "We need to help him deal with the wounds on his body as soon as possible. Do you have anything at home to deal with this situation?"
"By the way, I'll go get the medicine right away, you wait for me here." After finishing speaking, Zofia hurriedly left the room.
After Zofia left, Li Ang carefully checked Manna's injuries again. After a while, he found that although Manna's bloody back and limb joints looked terrifying, most of them were skin traumas. What really made Manna step into the gate of hell was the injury inside his body.
Li Ang took out a potion that he carried with him, injected it into Manna's body, and planned to hang him first before speaking.
The organs in Manna's body were eroded by some unknown energy, and apart from internal bleeding, some organs showed signs of failure.If it wasn't for Manna's strong physical fitness, he might not be able to make it back here at all.
And the worst thing is, there is still a small amount of energy remaining in Manna's body, causing continuous damage to his body.
However, no matter how weird this energy is, it is always a form of origin stone energy, and it is still within Li Ang's control. Without other people's interference, Li Ang easily transferred this energy from Ma Onna's body was stripped out.
It may be that the amount of this energy is very small, or it may be related to the fact that Li Ang's violent operation destroyed the spell structure, so after leaving Manna's body, Li Ang quickly decomposed it into the most basic source stone before he could analyze it. able.
"Come here! The medicine is here!"
At this time, Zofia came back carrying a big box, "How is Manna?"
"It has stabilized for the time being, and there should be no life-threatening in a short time." Li Ang replied, "Stop the bleeding first, and then bandage the wound."
"Ah."
The Linguang family is an out-and-out family of knights. Naturally, they will not be less injured during the usual training, so they always keep all kinds of medicines at home. Even now, they still keep this habit to deal with Manna's Trauma is enough.
Li Ang originally wanted to help, but when he realized that he was only doing Zofia a disservice, he simply stood aside and let Zofia deal with Manna's wound alone.
So far, Li Ang has been injured only a handful of times, and occasionally Adele helped to bandage it. He would help others to treat the wound. At most, he could help Zofia deliver something like a medicine bandage.
Carefully peeling off the armor from Manna's body, and cleaning the wound, Zofia tied Manna into a big rice dumpling with bandages, and then, Li Ang and her moved Manna to a room in the next room together. bed.
"With the conditions here, I can only do this."
Zofia took a deep breath, then turned around to stare at Li Ang, and said wordlessly, "Now, you can tell me, what are you doing?"
Hearing this, Li Ang couldn't help frowning.
Zofia obviously didn't know about the deal between him and Manna. Li Ang was hesitant now, wondering if he should tell Zofia the inside story.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, Li Ang replied decisively, "Manna is fine now, I think it's better for you to ask him in person after he wakes up."
Even if Zofia was Manna's relative, Li Ang couldn't reveal such things casually, so he simply threw the trouble to Manna, and made a decision after he woke up.
Based on his impressions of Zofia these few times, Li Ang originally thought that she would be very angry after rejecting her, but what Li Ang didn't expect was that Zofia just nodded calmly.
"I see."
Zofia nodded calmly, and then said with Leon's somewhat surprised expression, "Although I don't like this guy very much, but his strength... I am very clear."
"In the whole of Casimir, there are not many people who can hurt him like this."
"What you are doing should be related to the business alliance."
all hit.
Well, in fact, according to Zofia's logic just now, the truth of the matter is not difficult to guess. Li Ang just didn't expect that she could deduce most of the facts from this direction.
but……
"Maenna's strength... How strong is it?" Li Ang asked.
Li Ang only judged that Manna was very powerful from his physical fitness, but Li Ang was not very clear about how powerful he was.
"I'm not particularly clear," Zofia shook her head and said, "He hasn't made a serious move for a long time, but at least three years ago, Margaret was no match for him at all."
The strength to crush Yao Knight... Well, it is indeed strong enough.
Although the strength of the lower-level competitive knights is uneven, the strength of the top competitive knights is definitely not weak, and the strength of the Yao knights can definitely rank among the top of Casimir. This shows how powerful this middle-aged social animal is.
"Except for the great knight leader, several cavaliers from several knight families, and the three black iron dignitaries from the Wuxuan League, I can't think of anyone else who can hurt him like this."
Although Zofia said it very euphemistically, Leon could still understand what she meant.
The Great Knight Commander is the leader of this country, and the Linguang family is also in the same camp as those knight families. Zofia almost didn't mention that the Unarmored League did this.
"Cough cough cough-"
At this moment, with a burst of violent coughing, Manna slowly woke up from the coma.
Chapter 60 Communication
"Ah, he's already awake. Just in time, you should take this opportunity to ask him." Li Ang said to Zofia.
It seems that Li Ang's emergency treatment has played a big role. Manna's recovery speed is somewhat beyond expectations. Li Ang thought he would remain in a coma for several hours.
After a burst of violent coughing, Manna's breath gradually calmed down. He subconsciously wanted to grab the dagger beside him, but it was in vain. When Zofia was helping him clean the wound, she had already stopped by disarmed him.
"Calm down, there are no enemies here, you are in your own home now."
After seeing the surrounding environment clearly, Manna gradually relaxed, but because of his action just now, the wound that had just healed opened again, and traces of blood seeped out through the bandage.
As if she couldn't feel the pain in her body, Manna glanced at Li Ang and Zofia beside the bed, and then said slowly, "Leon... and Zofia, so you're here too..."
"It seems that my luck is good, and I was able to escape successfully."
"So who hurt you like this?"
"It's the head of the Black Iron League." Manna frowned, and said with some puzzlement, "He took advantage of my unpreparedness and sneaked up on me from behind."
The strength of the two sides is similar, and the black iron master is specialized in assassination. When Manna relaxes his vigilance, it is impossible for him to detect the assassination of the black iron master. A well-prepared large-scale spell instantly enveloped his body , thanks to Manna's quick enough reaction, he didn't die on the spot.
It's just... What Manna couldn't figure out was why the other party chose to attack him at this time?
"Why did the Wuzhou League attack you? Could it be that the Commercial Union finally wants to attack the Linguang family?"
"...No, it has nothing to do with business alliances." Manna shook his head and said, "This matter... is a bit complicated."
"Can it be complicated!" Zofia slammed it on the bedside table beside her, glaring at Manna angrily, "I have a lot of time now, and I can just listen to you explain slowly to me."
Whether it's Maria or Manna, both of them are doing some very dangerous things without telling Zofia, this feeling that she is the only one being excluded... is really uncomfortable.
Moreover, Zofia's intuition told her that Margaret would return to Casimir at this time, and it was likely to be related to what Manna was doing.
"Look at how many injuries you have suffered now, do you think you will have such good luck next time?"
Li Ang quietly took a step back, leaving room for debate to Zofia and Manna.
An embarrassing silence spread between the two, and after a long time, just when Zofia was about to be unable to hold back, the two finally heard Manna sigh, "Okay, now I ...do need some help."
The mutual dislike between Manna and Zofia is only because of their different ideas, and it is not so bad that they will never communicate with each other. Now Manna's situation is indeed not optimistic, and it is rare for him to let go. I lowered my stature.
Manna is extremely hostile to knight sports and the business association behind this industry, even to the point of hatred. He would rather give up his status as a knight than join forces with those people.
And Zofia believes that this is the inevitable development of Casimir, and no one can stop the torrent of this era. Although she also hates the capital that hides behind the scenes and controls everything, she actively participates in the knighthood. Athletics, without any corporate sponsorship, achieved great results.
Now Zofia's status is even higher than that of the entire Linguang family combined.
Manna paused, and after sorting out his words, he said slowly, "We are investigating Boer Pharmaceuticals. I suspect that they have colluded with foreign forces. If we can catch their feet, it will be a big deal. A regulatory meeting can greatly dampen the spirit of a business association."
Hearing what Manna said just now, Zofia was stunned for a moment, and then said incoherently, "Where did you hear this kind of news? No, why did the Supervisory Board let you alone?" people do this kind of thing?"
"That's why I say this matter is a bit complicated..." Manna sighed, and said, "Only a few people in the Supervision Committee know about this matter. In order to avoid alarming others, I am the only one who really takes action."
"As for the source of the information...it's a little special."
"Not long ago, a senior Xuantie from the Wuxuan League came to me and provided me with this news."
"Is that the one who attacked you just now?" Li Ang asked aloud.
Manna nodded.
"So that's how it is..."
Apparently, the last time Manna had some reservations when he got to the bottom, this was the first time Li Ang heard about the source of Manna's information. Before, he thought it was internal information from the Supervisory Committee, but he didn't expect it to be involved A high-ranking Xuantie who has no alliance.
The Securities Regulatory Commission, the Business Alliance, the No-Hail Alliance... With more and more forces involved, this matter has formed a huge vortex, involving most of Kasimir's top management. Li Ang suddenly felt that with his For the role played in this matter, the remuneration of a manor may not be enough.
