At most, he just came back from Ursus. There may be some traces of wind and snow on his clothes, but nothing else.

So, why stare at her?

"Sorry, sorry, we're fine."

Huang waved his hand and apologized quickly.

She could see that there were a lot of water stains and some traces of muddy water on Shining's clothes. It was obvious that he had just returned from a field mission and had not rested yet. He was thinking about coming to the cafeteria for something to eat. The two of them were staring at each other so suddenly. , indeed a bit rude.

"I'm sorry...I feel familiar after seeing you."

Linguang also showed a trace of apology on her face, and she apologized. She had no other thoughts, but she felt that The Shining was very special and familiar, so she took a few more glances.

"Familiarity...maybe because of my Origin Stone skills."

A flash of light flashed in Shining's eyes. He raised his hand gently, and a golden-white light lit up in his palm. It was very weak and not dazzling, giving people a very gentle feeling.

As an outstanding person among the Sin Absolvers, her attainments in swordsmanship and Origin Stone skills are ranked among the best among the entire Sakaz tribe, and she can see more things.

She also had the same feeling about Linguang. It was an Originium skill that was very similar in nature.

There was light in Linguang's body, which emitted naturally without restraining.

"Light...it turns out to be like this."

The bloodline of Silver Spear Pegasus makes it easy to master the inherited skills hidden deep in the bloodline. Light is the symbol of Pegasus, and the name Linguang comes from this.

Even if his own bloodline has not yet fully awakened and he does not have the power to recreate the former glory of the Silver Spear Pegasus, Lin Guang still possesses the Origin Stone skills to control light.

After seeing The Shining perform the Origin Stone skills, she understood where that familiar feeling came from. The Shining's light was very similar to what she had mastered. It was the same gentle light. It was natural for her to feel familiar. .

"Nice to meet you, I'm The Shining"

Putting down his palm, Shining seemed to have thought of something and asked softly: "Do you mind if I sit here?"

"Ah! I don't mind, I don't mind!"

"Please sit down, I am Linguang, Margaret Linguang."

"Thank you."

With the permission of the two of them, Shining casually pulled out a chair and sat next to Huang. She was more familiar with Huang, so it would be a bit rude to sit next to Lin Guang, whom she had just met.

"Um... do you need me to bring you some food?"

Huang is a little reserved, and she knows that this girl who looks a little cold is actually a boss who is much stronger than elite operators like ACE, and he is even more powerful than her.

Fear...not that much.

Even if you get along with this kind of people, and you are not very familiar with them, you will inevitably have the awkward feeling of being at the same table as a poor student and an excellent student, and it will feel like you are one head shorter.

"No, I'm not actually hungry. I already ate when I came here. I just came to the cafeteria to buy a cup of milk tea."

Shining shook his head slightly and rejected Huang's kindness.

She was indeed not hungry. She had eaten a few compressed biscuits in Ursus before. When she came to the cafeteria, she really wanted a cup of milk tea. The drink from Longmen was very popular among some female members, and she was no exception.

After all, people always have little hobbies.

Especially now that Kazdel has basically escaped from the war and division, and everything is developing in a good direction. Most of the problems that troubled her in the past have been solved, and she no longer has to stress herself out all day long. It needs to be tight, and you can relax it occasionally.

"Then let me give you this glass. I haven't drunk it yet. In fact, I would rather drink some wine..."

Huang pushed the untouched milk tea next to him and felt that Shining had gained a lot of popularity and didn't seem to be difficult to get along with, so he felt a lot more relaxed.

"Thank you. Also, drinking alcohol in the morning is not a good habit. Don't follow ACE's lead."

Shining hesitated for a moment, then took the warm milk tea and reminded him softly.

She knew very well those old Babel people at ACE who hung out together all day long. They made trouble everywhere when they had free time, and now they had spoiled the children. How could this be allowed?

'It seems like we need to talk to Kelsey and ask them to restrain themselves. '

In his mind, he put ACE, who was inciting children to drink, on the list to be reported later. Shining took a sip of milk tea and looked at Linguang, with a trace of curiosity in his tone.

"Are you from Casimir?"

Most of the Kuranta race is concentrated in Casimir, and there are also other places, but they are not very common. She naturally has her own guesses, and it seems that she has heard the surname Linguang somewhere.

"Yes, I left my hometown because of some things. I met Huang on the way, and then I came to the Golden Tree."

The origin is not something shameful. Linguang admitted it simply, and then suddenly remembered something and whispered: "Speaking of which, the girl before made me feel familiar. Could it be that her Origin Stone skills are also related to Light related? That’s such a coincidence.”

There are many types of Origin Stone Skills in this world, and they are of all types. Therefore, the chance of encountering similar Origin Stone Skills is not high. To be able to encounter two in such a short period of time, Linguang felt that his You are really lucky. If you are still in Casimir, maybe you can try to buy a lottery ticket?

"Girl? What girl?"

Shining tilted his head in confusion.

If she remembered correctly, there should be no operators in the Golden Tree with similar Origin Stone skills to hers. Linguang was the only one she had seen for such a long time.

Chapter 2: Refuse to Excessive Consumption

"So this is it, the blood demon's secret technique?"

After listening to Huang's brief description, Shining nodded thoughtfully and comforted: "If that's all, then you don't have to worry. The blood demon's spell is not a difficult problem for the golden tree to solve. It should be very easy." You’ll recover soon.”

"But...those guys are really unreasonable. Even though the split is over, they are unwilling to cherish this hard-won peace."

For the blood demon race, most of the other branch races called Sakaz have no favorable impressions, and the Shining is no exception.

There are only a handful of individuals in the entire blood demon clan who can get rid of the shackles of instinct, such as the current director of the Golden Tree Engineering Department, Ke Lucier. The rest are all madmen who thirst for blood and killing. Who would like to be with a group of mental patients? make friends?

It can be said that among all the existing Sakaz races, the Blood Demon is the least popular one.

Through his own channels, The Shining heard a little bit of news that Regent Tracy was planning to form a special force to prepare for an expedition and rely on their strength to conduct a small-scale war with Colombia.

That army was basically composed of restless people, and Blood Demons accounted for a large number of them.

Maybe that's a good thing too.

Shining doesn't like war and killing, but that's just her personal preference.

Thinking from the perspective of the entire country, stuffing a group of radicals who may become time bombs into the expeditionary force at any time can not only consume the unstable factors within Kazdaele, but also bring more benefits to the country internationally. Killing two birds with one stone is indeed a good idea.

"By the way, I heard that Shining is going to transfer to the medical department?"

Regarding Kazdel's past and present, Huang felt that she had nothing to say. She didn't know much about it and didn't have much say, so she brought up another topic.

She had heard from Brother ACE and others before that Shining was going to the medical department, and now that she met him, she just wanted to ask.

Why does such a powerful boss, who even thinks he is no match for elite operators like ACE, suddenly transfer to the medical department?

Combat and healing, you don’t want to think about them next to each other, right?

"I do have this plan."

This matter is actually not a secret. Shining nodded, with a smile on his lips, and said warmly: "Compared to fighting and killing, I want to be a doctor, so I have learned medical knowledge, and my source Stonecraft plays a bit of a role in this as well.”

"Peace is hard-won. Today's Kazdaele can only be glimpsed in dreams in the past. Everything is developing for the better."

"Even I will be greedy for this beauty. If possible, it would be best to never need to draw the sword again."

Oh, I got it.

The boss has gone through hundreds of battles and waded through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Now he feels tired and wants to return to his fields and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests...

There are many similar plots in Yanguo's chivalrous novels. Although there are some slight differences, they are generally similar.

Anyway, Huang thinks that’s what it means.

Drawing a sword can defeat all enemies, and practicing medicine can cure illnesses and save people. Is this what a boss has to offer?

"When I come back this time, I will go directly to the medical department. Maybe I can see the child you mentioned. Also, thank you for the milk tea."

After saying this with a smile, Shining stood up, left his chair, waved his hands gently, and walked towards the cafeteria door.

The milk tea has been finished, and she has no reason to stay here.

These two children are very interesting. There will definitely be many opportunities to meet in the future, so there is no need to rush.

Now, she is very interested in the girl Huang and Linguang met, and plans to go and have a look.

"...She's very calm."

It wasn't until Shining's back disappeared from the door that Lin Guang spoke softly, an inexplicable look flashing in his eyes.

In Shining, she felt a calm demeanor, as if everything was under control and could be solved without any impatience.

This state made her quite envious, and even reminded her of her grandfather.

"After all, he is a big boss, so he is naturally at ease and can go wherever he wants."

Huang also envied Shining's calmness, but she knew that strength was something she couldn't envy.

The only thing a 'stupid bird' like her can do is to try her best to strengthen herself, try to flap her wings a few more times, and fly higher.

"Don't think about that. It's too far for us. Let's eat first."

After retracting his gaze from the door, Huang licked his lips, turned his attention to the plate in front of him, and added: "When we finish eating, we will go to the engineering department to make a suitable outfit for you. I customized it. The new weapons should be ready soon."

"But...I don't have money now."

After hearing what Huang said, Linguang suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart and prepared to eat first.

But after hearing the additional words, she stopped moving again, feeling a little embarrassed.

After leaving Casimir, she was already alone. It was obviously impossible to get a set of suitable equipment with only a little money left. Even if the Golden Tree had any internal preferential policies, it would not be available.

As for the monetary 'contribution' that circulates inside the Golden Tree, she, who has just joined, has none at all. Under such circumstances, how can she go to the Engineering Department to make equipment?

"Yes, the Field Service Department does issue standard equipment, but there is no such thing as armor."

When Linguang said this, Huangcai suddenly felt a little embarrassed when he remembered this.

She just ordered a new weapon not long ago, so she doesn't have the savings to get it out now, otherwise she can still lend it to Lin Guang.

But...it's not completely impossible...

A small advertisement that I had seen inadvertently came to mind. Huang clapped his hands and had an idea.

"Sister Lucille seems to be running an installment plan. You only need to pay a small down payment to get the equipment you want. The remaining balance can be paid off in several months. You just need to pay some additional interest. For you It should be a good choice.”

"Pay in installments?"

Hearing this word, Linguang shivered, and the ears on his head twitched.

She had heard a lot about advanced consumption and mortgage purchases when she was in Casimir. The Federation of Commerce liked to engage in such methods to squeeze money out of people's pockets. Why was there such a thing in the Golden Tree?

"No need, I can just use the standard equipment. It won't have much impact. I can save money and buy something better later."

Linguang instinctively resisted the so-called installment payment. She didn't want to let herself fall into the abyss called loan.

How can anyone owe the company a large amount of money on their first day at work?

It's not like the standard equipment issued by the Field Service Department can't be used...it's just a foreign object, even if it doesn't have it, it won't affect her ability to complete the mission.

-------------------------------------

"Good morning, Director Lucille."

"Ah...so sleepy...ah, good morning."

After casually dealing with a passing engineering department officer, Lucille walked outside listlessly.

In the current Golden Tree, the engineering department has the most tasks to be responsible for, and the manpower is also the most scarce.

The Golden Tree needs a headquarters, just like Rodel, the royal city at the junction. Therefore, it is imperative to build a new city around the Big Golden Tree, and it is always in progress.

During this period of time, the internal system of Golden Tree was improved again and again. Those matters were not under the jurisdiction of the Engineering Department, but the construction of the entire city was under the jurisdiction of the Engineering Department.

A complete and huge city is not just about building a few houses and stuffing people into them. All aspects of the people's lives, a complete logistics support system, defense and military training must be taken into consideration. There are simply not too many things to worry about.

In addition to this, there are also the equipment costs necessary for Golden Tree members and various tools for export, which are also the work of the Engineering Department.

Not to mention that other cities and regions within the Golden Tree's sphere of influence also need to be transformed at the same time. The remaining operators relying on the Tower of Babel are completely a drop in the bucket, and no matter how they are distributed, they will not be enough.

Even if a lot of manpower is recruited from the outside world, the follow-up training of the personnel will still take time. The growth in the number of cadres in the engineering department is still too slow compared to the complicated affairs.

As the head and supervisor of the engineering department, Lucille felt like her brain was going to explode recently. There were so many things that she could never finish, and she almost couldn't breathe due to the pressure.

Overtime work is basically normalized. Working overtime for several days and nights is common.

Fortunately, after the collapse of Rhine Life some time ago, many employees joined Golden Tree, which added a lot of available people, but Lucille barely felt that she could breathe a small sigh of relief.

Now, she was going to go to the canteen, pack some desserts and snacks, and then return to her apartment to have a good sleep and relax.
