The ancient dragon of Arknights

Chapter 12 Some are happy and some are sad

Nessario spread all the loot on his bed, and the dazzling array of things covered the entire single bed. To be honest, the harvest was far less than what it was during the Tikalendo period.

"Victorian gold coins, silver coins, copper coins, red gold, Colombian gold certificates, Longmen coins, precious jewelry..."

Gangster strongholds seem to be like this. Precious metals, coins, jewelry and other valuables are piled up in safes. They have many ways to get money, and the money they get comes in all kinds of ways.

Among these things, the coins can be used without any burden; but the jewelry cannot be moved for the time being. These jewelry may be stolen goods used by some unlucky people to pay off debts or rob the gangs.

Just in case, if this kind of jewelry is very rare, or if the other party intends to hide it - if Nesario sells it on the market, someone will come after him.

Although he is now a student of Konoe Academy and the other party does not dare to enter the campus to cause trouble, even the school cannot rush to things outside the school as soon as possible.

The only way is to sell it on the black market. The most important thing in that place is to hide your identity, but where does the black market come from in Londinium?Even if it exists, it must have been infiltrated by official organizations and used for fishing.

"Keep it for now. Let's deal with these things after a while."

It's good to be able to gain something for the first time. Considering Londinium's strict rules, it is a "heinous crime" for these gangsters to be able to accumulate such wealth.Leeks grow slowly, but mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are. Nesario has already found the joy of four years in college.

......

"*Victoria swears*! Do you mean to say that not only did you fail to defeat them head-on, but you were even attacked later by the so-called Glasgow Gang!?"

"This... Godfather, we made a mistake in the intelligence. Someone lied about the status of the Glasgow Gang."

While Neltharion was happily counting money, some unlucky guy was being scolded bloody.

The little leader in the previous Hound Tooth Gang stronghold is now standing tremblingly in an elegant and solemn study. If anyone from the Syracuse area comes here, they will find that the decoration style of this study is actually similar to that of Syracuse. Exactly what the mafia family wants.

"Shut up! What I want to hear is not quibbles!"

"Yes! I will take back the territory that belongs to us. Please give me another chance!"

The originally arrogant little leader almost buried his head in the ground now. He didn't even dare to move his tail, for fear that one of his actions would offend the person in front of him.

On the sofa in front of the little boss, there is a middle-aged man sitting upright. Behind him are two bodyguards in black suits standing on both sides. From the other person's arrogant expression and the little boss's nervous attitude, it is not difficult to tell that he is The leader of the Houndstooth Gang.

The already gray hair was taken care of meticulously. Although the clothes on his body were slightly messy, there were no wrinkles. His blue eyes contained anger, but behind the anger there was still clear wisdom; the wrinkles on his face did not give any trace of wrinkles. This man added a touch of kindness and slowness, which gave him an extra sense of oppression without anger or authority.

But if you look carefully, you can also find one thing - the leader and the bodyguards behind him are not from the Pelo tribe, but from the Lupo tribe who are very similar to Pelo.

The leader of the Dogtooth Gang was a Rooper, a Rooper who led a group of Pero gangsters in a film-filled Victoria - what an interesting story.If it is written as a novel and artistically modified, it can definitely be sold in the market.

But it is a pity that probably not many people know about this matter. The gang leader is a clandestine person, and not every country is like Syracuse.

"Go away! I have given you two chances, and you made mistakes both times. Go to the hospital to recuperate yourself, and Bond will take over your position."

"......Yes."

After leaving the study, the little leader could no longer straighten his back. His backbone and everything he had was the identity and power he had just lost.

Although it was called cultivation, it was actually a dismissal - after he came out of the hospital, his original position had long been replaced and his original subordinates had been scattered.If he wants to make a comeback, he can only climb up from being a thug.

This thing... is not difficult for the rich leader of the team, but he can't do it.

The robbery by the masked man had already caused serious losses to the gang, and his property had already been deprived of him to make up for the losses; what was even more serious was that he had too few subordinates and connections that he could use, and he had no one with lower status than himself in the past. To get in touch with someone with a higher status than himself, he did not curry favor hard enough, and all the benefits he could obtain were eaten up by himself, and no share of the network operation was lost.

Over, his gangster career.

In the study, the leader did not stop his activities because of the departure of a small leader.

He went on to summon one person, an informant he placed in various strongholds. One of the qualities emphasized by the gang was loyalty, which was a necessary factor for stability.

But loyalty cannot rely solely on verbal education. Necessary means like this should also be prepared.

"Tell me everything about Block 56."

"First of all, it's the Glasgow Gang. They are not from Block 56. They are gangs from the slums. Not long ago, some of us had a conflict with them. The cause of the matter has not yet been identified. But the leader chose to retaliate directly and went to They smashed and caused trouble on the other side's territory. A week ago, the Glasgow gang also retaliated and took away blocks 56 and 57."

"During this period, the leader was not in the stronghold, but in...the bar. After the territory was taken away, the leader immediately organized a counterattack, but it had little effect, so it was postponed until yesterday."

Listening to the informant's report, Leader Luper's palms gradually tightened. This series of actions was simply the work of an idiot!It seems that I am a little out of my mind, and I actually let such a loser become the leader of three blocks! ?

"What about the masked man attack?"

"Yesterday, after our defeat, we retreated to the stronghold on the edge of Area 58 to rest, but then a masked man attacked the stronghold... He single-handedly killed all the 22 remaining people in the stronghold. poured it out and then ransacked the safe.”

"..."

For the leader who was born in Syracuse, this matter is not unbelievable. The killers trained by the big families in Syracuse can easily do the same thing.

But what puzzled him was - who was eyeing the Houndstooth Gang?They don't have the body to be treated like this.

Unless...someone discovers something behind them.

Chapter 13 school starts

Nessario didn't know how many things his act of cutting leeks had caused, and he was more concerned about today's opening ceremony.

As day and night change, a week has passed, and Terra's famous military academy, the Royal Guards College of Victoria, has ushered in a new school year!There are people all over Victoria and even across Terra who yearn for this school, but one of the reasons why a prestigious school is a prestigious school is the strict examination requirements.

The Royal Guards College only admits about 1000 new students every year, and only about 900 of them can successfully obtain their diplomas.

Such a small number of students can enjoy the most advanced teaching resources. Uneven distribution is not enough to summarize this situation.

Nesario has approximately 1200 students enrolled in this phase, which is much larger than in previous years.As for how Neltharion knew?

He learned this from his teacher when he went to the Admissions Office to collect his school uniform.

A famous general in the history of Terra once said: "Military uniforms must be handsome, so that young people will serve in the army without hesitation."

This concept is not groundless. Handsome military uniforms are indeed regarded as a source of pride by young soldiers, while ugly military uniforms will naturally be suppressed. Each country in Terra has its own unique style in the design of military uniforms.

Nessario had paid attention to this information in high school, and Victoria's appearance in military uniform was indeed online.

The black military cap has different holes designed according to different races to facilitate the extension of ears, horns, and feathers; the khaki shirt is used as the interior, and the fabric used is also very high-quality and will not cause discomfort to the skin.

The coat is a double-breasted coat mainly in dark green; it has epaulette straps on the shoulders, and the right shoulder has been additionally strengthened to make it easier to hold a crossbow; the waist is restrained by a tactical belt, which is the soul of the entire dress; after get off work, Wearing wear-resistant tactical pants and black tactical boots, the military uniforms on campus seem to be a bit simplified.

Tiger back, wasp waist and mantis legs - this is Dayan's description of the young soldiers, and it can also be used to describe Neltharion at this moment.

It can only be said that the evolution of the body shape of the Mistyclaw is so perfect. After Neltharion personified it, it became almost synonymous with strength, vigor, and swiftness.

"Speaking of which...this kid is quite slow."

Neltharion looked at the room opposite, which would be his roommate's room, but the problem was that this roommate had not shown up yet.

"There are still...1 hour and 17 minutes until the opening ceremony. Get there in advance."

Neltharion knew that being late was not a good thing, especially being late at an important moment was even worse; he had nothing important to do at the moment, so it was better to rush there in advance than to wait for the time.

Soon, Nesario arrived at the playground. Before he arrived, a group of people had already gathered here.

There were several small groups chatting enthusiastically, obviously having found companions or teams; there was also someone standing alone, and even the military uniform on him had faded.

Does Neltharion have companions?It seems not.During the week in Victoria, he spent most of the time tracking gangs and exploring the Sadean District; the rest of the time was spent studying in his room.

As for friends from Colombia?

Neltharion had no close friends in high school. Those who interacted with him were only three types of people - the first type was those who admired Seria and tried to get more information about Seria from Neltharion, his younger brother. A fanatical fan of information; the second type is an idiot who has unrealistic fantasies and tries to use Nessario as a springboard to win over Seria; the third type is an idiot who is beaten to the ground by Seria and tries to use Nessario as a springboard. The person who came to threaten Ceria.

This is one of the concrete manifestations of "Neltharion living in Ceria's shadow".

Neltharion has different approaches to different people.

Facing the first type of person, Neltharion's way of dealing with them is to ignore them, and he will naturally give up after a long time.

The second type of person is divided by gender. When a man comes up to him, Nessario will introduce him to a party with the same sex, and lie that Seria will also attend the party. The guy who is controlled by the lower body will naturally become anxious. He couldn't bear it, and he would not appear in front of Neltharion again after the next day; if a woman approached him, Neltharion seriously informed Ceria that her sexual orientation was sapiosexual, and if he wanted to date her, he should first start with her grades. surpass her.

When it comes to the third type of person, Neltharion is the favorite.By letting the other party make the first move, you gain immunity from self-defense—and then you can release the accumulated pressure from the first two types of people in one fell swoop.

Back to the topic, Neltharion will not meet any companions in Victoria, he needs to open up a social circle on his own.

'What's the way to open up a social circle? '

Neltharion was still thinking hard about how to make some friends, but in fact he had become the focus of the playground unknowingly.

'Hey hey...look over there. '

'*Victoria swears* What the hell is that Vaifan! '

'That tail...is he an Adacris? '

'Have you seen the horned Ardacles? '

'There is a super handsome guy!Let's go, do you want to talk to me? '

'With his physique, he looks like a guard, but we look like a warlock. '

'Who are you calling a sorcerer? '

"..."

Neltharion was not without acquaintances, if acquaintances could be counted.

Chen Huijie, who was wearing a Victoria women's military uniform, was also standing on the playground. She was originally aloof and aloof, but she gained a different kind of charm after putting on the military uniform. Her appearance, which was different from that of the Victorians, also attracted some attention. However, due to her aura, she did not dare to come forward and talk to her.

Like Nesario, Chen Huijie, who has a tough, upright and self-disciplined personality, did not deliberately socialize during this period.

She has no opinion on this, because communication is not a necessity of life. She has more important things than making friends. She may continue to do this for the next four years - if nothing happens.

"Chen Chen! What are you looking at so intently? Let me see it too!"

A warm and silly voice sounded from behind Chen Huijie, and along with it came the swoop of its owner.

Fiona Yang - a passionate Vaifan girl with long orange hair and purple-tinged horns extending from the back of her head to both sides; her blue eyes seem to be glowing and her beautiful face She was full of excitement and smiles at this moment; the originally serious and handsome military uniform actually looked cute and playful on her body.

She was the accident that Chen Huijie encountered. Fiona and she were roommates.

This enthusiastic girl Vaifan had no sense of boundaries at all, and in just one week she made Chen Huijie extremely noisy. The key was that her noisy words were all well-intentioned, and it was difficult for Chen Huijie to refuse.

So, she made her first friend.

Chapter 14 Two people travel together

"Wow! It's one of my kind! But...is his tail too exaggerated?"

Fiona followed Chen Huijie's line of sight, and what caught her eye was Nesario standing in the center of the playground.

Fiona, who also belongs to the Vaifan tribe, originally wanted to go up and say hello immediately, but the glares from the surrounding people made her, who had always been familiar with her, afraid to go forward.

"Chen Chen, do you know what's going on? Is he some big shot?"

"I don't know...I met him once when school started. Other than that, I don't know anything."

"Oh. Do we want to go up and talk?"

"How did you jump to this idea?!"

"Because...Chen Chen, you have been staring at others. I thought you liked..."

The passionate fool Vaifan was blocked by her good friend before she could finish what she wanted to say. She didn't have to say anything if she couldn't speak.

In addition to the combination of Chen Huijie and Fiona, there are two other people who are also sizing up Neltharion.

Miss Luper, who has long blond hair and a cold and serious expression, is also paying attention to this young man from Vaifan who has had a relationship with her. Rita expressed her sympathy for his conservative attention.

Her outstanding appearance sometimes attracts some attention, but that is still tolerable; the real danger is her last name - whenever it is revealed to the world, the surrounding opinions of Rita will change instantly. Big change.

Some people would look at Rita with yearning, respect, and curiosity, while others would instantly show disdain and malice. She was all too familiar with this situation of being surrounded by sight and emotionally oppressed.

This is not a good experience, and in serious cases it can even cause harm to people; when she was young, she had nightmares about it more than once.

'Should I go up and help him? '

Rita was a little hesitant. Neltharion was just an acquaintance to her, and the other party didn't even necessarily need her help. What supported her in doing so was just her righteous heart.

"Oh? Dear Rita, what are you looking at? Are you so fascinated by it?"

A big green cat walked quietly behind Rita. She gently put her face on Rita's shoulder, and the two of them kept their gazes aligned - towards Neltharion.

If Nessario had paid attention here, he would have found that Miss Philling looked particularly familiar - so familiar that he could taste the sweetness of cream on his tongue, and could smell the fragrance of clear spring in his nose.

She is none other than Miss Losili, who had a romantic encounter with Nessario a few days ago!But at this moment, she also has many other identities: a freshman at the Royal Guards College and Rita Scamandros's roommate.

"!"

"Losili, how many times have I told you not to come to me suddenly."

"Are you scared?"
