Elf Archer of Life in Another World

"Miss Helen's words are serious. The word 'give up' is out of the question between you and me."

Shi Sui smiled lightly and said comfortingly.

Helen breathed out softly, her pink face and twinkling eyes showed a shy look of being at a loss. Coupled with her deliberately straight back and slightly raised chin, Shi Sui thought of a person.

The word Sanchishui often talks about: tsundere.

But from Shi Sui's point of view, this "jiao" may be somewhat true, but the "arrogance" is only a shell of a stubborn person on the outside.

It's interesting. It was Sui who left the last comment about Helen in his heart.

He led Helen and the three of them into the Tianhuo Building. He politely responded to some of Helen's "little questions out of curiosity" and entered a spacious box with them.

Zangjiu has already arranged for Mr. Liu to take his seat, and the five guards are already standing quietly in the corner of the box. Except for a short man guarding the door, the other four people each occupy a corner, directly surrounding the people in the room.

stand up.

These five guards were all wearing bamboo hats, and their right hands were on the handles of swords at their waists. Although they did not speak and could not see their faces clearly, the defensive meaning in them was very obvious.

Helen frowned displeasedly when she saw this arrangement, but seeing the helpless looks exchanged between Zangjiu and Shi Sui, she knew that this arrangement was definitely not what Zang Jiu or Shi Sui wanted to see.

"Oh my, it's President Sui, you're here!"

As if he was the master here, Mr. Liu stood up and greeted Shi Sui with a smile on his face, ignoring Helen.

Helen didn't bother with him, nodded politely to Mr. Liu, walked directly into the box, and greeted Zang Jiu softly.

"Hello, hello," Zangjiu replied in surprise, and asked Helen aside, "Please sit here."

"Master Liu, let's sit down too!"

At this time, I didn't want to be too polite with Mr. Liu, so I asked Mr. Liu to take a seat humbly but forcefully.

Mr. Liu also recognized the interest, and for a second he retracted the enthusiasm on his face that seemed to be overstepping his authority, and sat quietly aside, as if he suddenly became interested in the tea sets of Tianhuo Tower.

Knowing that this was the time to get to the point, Helen couldn't help but feel a little nervous and considered whether to speak first.

"Miss Helen, let's not waste time on trivial matters."

Shi Sui glanced at the five guards in the box, his eyes especially stayed on the guard guarding the door for a moment, and continued:

"Due to the sea restriction order, our Xingtianxia has an unparalleled advantage in world missions, but it has also attracted some jealousy and malice. I wonder what Deputy Captain Helen thinks?"

This question sounds very straightforward, but Helen is still keenly aware of the mystery hidden in it: advantage or malice, Helen's answer focuses on which point is more important, that is, which point the cooperation between the Knights of the Rose and Xing Tianxia will focus on.

Xingtianxia has already made clear their advantages. Whether it is the truth or a bluff, it shows that at least at this moment, their desire to cooperate with the Knights of the Rose is not strong. An extra partner is nothing more than the icing on the cake.

And once she agreed to help deal with those "malicious people"... then the Knights of the Rose would have to be tied to Xing Tianxia in China. It would be fine if that were the case, but Helen always felt that she would be reduced to a thug in the future.

Helen immediately regretted it. With just such a problem, she had fallen into a passive position. Should she put her chips on the table now? Is there any good way to regain the initiative?

Seeing Helen's hesitation, Shi Sui continued to advance his question:

"If Deputy Captain Helen doesn't have any ideas, why don't you answer a simple question? Why are you here to talk to me now?"

"Of course it's for cooperation, to clarify the details of the cooperation that we have already decided on."

Helen moved out of Songqing. After all, he was the one who agreed to cooperate with their Rose Knights at that time, and Songqing was obviously a member of Xingtianxia, ​​and perhaps his status in Xingtianxia was not lower than that of Zangjiu.

"I remember that the topic of your conversation was joining forces?"

Shi Sui asked casually while fiddling with the tea sets on the table.

Such a casual remark left Helen speechless for a moment, unsure of what aspect the word "year old" meant.

If it means that the Knights of the Rose and Xing Tianxia have joined forces to overwhelm Tian Gongfang, then the current sea restriction order is like the two powerful forces of the imperial court and Xing Tianxia joining forces. The Knights of the Rose are no longer considered "

"Strong", not to mention that Tiangongfang has been severely suppressed by the sea restriction order.

If it was referring to her original plan to join forces with Song Qing to deal with it... Helen couldn't help but look at Shi Sui, and she found a little playfulness and ridicule in his eyes, as if to say: You have been deceived by Song Qing, and you actually plan to

Am I being too stupid if I pull it down?

Having nothing to say, Helen once again felt the embarrassment of having nothing to say.

Her original intention of taking back the initiative changed to at least not being too passive and at least letting her say something.

"Based on the details discussed with Master Songqing before," Helen directly changed the subject, "The Blue Whale that is about to arrive in Chang'an today is already full of people from our Rose Knights, and our leader is about to go with the next Blue Whale.

The Whale is coming."

"So?" Shisui asked.

"We are very sincere and have already paid a lot."

"Sincerity and dedication are indeed worthy of gratitude."

"We are fulfilling the promise we made during our previous discussions with Lord Songqing."

"One's word is true, it is indeed a good character."

"Is it possible that President Sui doesn't want to admit this cooperation?"

Helen's eyes were sharp, and she didn't want to play word games with Shi Sui anymore, so she asked directly.

Shi Suitui gave Helen a cup of tea and said with a smile:

"This is the right atmosphere. After all, I always feel that today's matter seems a bit like a forced sale."

Helen's face darkened, buying and selling by force...Does this mean that they, the Knights of the Rose, are going to Xing Tianxia to ask for cooperation?

"However, it seems now," Shi Sui changed the topic, "Whether it is a seller coming from thousands of miles away or a buyer with deep connections, the sincerity is at least full, right?"

Helen's pupils shrank, and the two people who had been standing behind her immediately restrained their rising anger and lowered their heads helplessly.

In addition to the restrictions of the sea restriction order, there is also the law that is obviously targeted at strangers like them who have "come from thousands of miles away".

They have not forgotten that the ultimatum in their hands was all handled by Song Qing, and Song Qing is a man of the world.

Is this a threat?

"I admit that we really need your cooperation," Helen gave in at the right moment and bit her lip unwillingly and aggrievedly, "But do we have to continue talking like this? We can't..."

"cannot."

Shi Sui spoke calmly, looked at Helen, and curled up the corner of his mouth.

"I really want to know how valuable your mercenary group is in this world mission."
