hunter rule

The first ray of sunlight shines through the window.

Song Tingying opened her eyes, subconsciously trying to catch something.

But at this moment, she really caught it.

The boy looked at the girl.

What Song Tingying caught was Zhao Guangli's hand.

Song Tingying's face turned red instantly and she immediately withdrew her hand.

"Zhao Guangli, you...why are you still here?"

Yes, why am I still here?

Zhao Guangli smiled and answered this question very seriously.

"Song Garden is completely sealed off. Even if I use [Walker's Heart] to cover my whereabouts, there is no way I can get out."

"Then why didn't you call me?" Song Tingying said charmingly.

Zhao Guangli thought for a while: "Maybe it's because you slept so hard...you even snored."

"You...you just snored."

Song Tingying covered the side of her face with her little hands to prevent the young man in front of her from seeing her blushing face.

"Okay."

Zhao Guangli stopped teasing her: "Little Sakura, when you were asleep, I found a few books for you to read, but... I didn't finish them all."

"So can I borrow it?"

Song Tingying obviously didn't care very much: "Of course it's no problem."

Song Tingying straightened up, revealing her exquisite collarbone.

Zhao Guangli glanced at it and saw the blue necklace around Xiao Sakura's neck.

That is...my own [Zhanxing Arrow].

When he was in Gadelin, the green capital, Zhao Guangli gave one to Little Sakura. Unexpectedly, she actually made it into a necklace.

Song Tingying noticed Zhao Guangli's gaze, blushed and covered her chest with her hands.

"You...boys can't stare at girls like this. The sisters in the etiquette department said that."

"Okay, okay, sorry, sorry."

Zhao Guangli raised his hand.

Zhao Guangli didn't know exactly what kind of feelings he had for Song Tingying.

To me, Song Tingying is essentially just a noble little princess who has met twice.

Zhao Guangli would not have any good impression of nobles.

The Song Tingying in front of her was not involved in childbirth, and she knew very little about the entire world, but she was able to possess everything that ordinary people could not possess. She had powerful and extraordinary protection, and could even easily obtain a powerful profession, as well as the resources corresponding to the profession.

The Alliance's resources are limited.

Some people get more land, and some people get less land.

Zhao Guangli simply couldn't calculate how much blood the nobles sucked to reach where they are now.

Theoretically speaking, Song Tingying, who was enjoying the results with peace of mind, should maintain a boundary with him... However, Zhao Guangli had no way to do this.

Little Sakura knows nothing.

She did nothing wrong.

Zhao Guangli looked at the girl's innocent face and seemed to be confused because of his own thinking expression.

"Zhao Guangli, what's wrong with you?"

The girl asked with concern.

"Ah, it's okay."

Zhao Guangli came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Little Sakura, it's dawn, you can send me out later."

"Don't you want breakfast?"

Song Tingying stretched out her little palm: "The food made in the kitchen is delicious!"

Zhao Guangli shook his head: "As a thief, I can't sit in the master's house and have breakfast together in a grand manner. This is the bottom line, little Sakura, that's right."

Song Tingying nodded in understanding.

Although she very much hopes that Zhao Guangli will stay, it seems that Zhao Guangli has a lot of important things to do.

Come on, little Sakura.

There's still a chance.

Song Tingying thought seriously.

…

Songyuan was completely blocked.

But it was completely unable to lock the biggest inner ghost, Song Tingying.

No one thought that the lady of the host family would mix with last night's attacker, let alone spend the night together in the same room.

Leaving Song Garden was smoother than Zhao Guangli imagined. On the way, Zhao Guangli saw Russell and greeted Song Tingying cordially. At a certain moment, Zhao Guangli really thought that the witch was there.

Say hello to yourself.

Returning to Tianquyuan, the first thing Zhao Guangli did was take a shower and change clothes.

The Institute of Botany was empty. It was just as it was when Zhao Guangli left last night, and it was exactly as it was when he came back.

This shows that Lu Baiju has never come back.

As the compulsory recruitment time approaches, my mentor seems to be working hard to prepare.

Lu Baiju was not good at fighting at all. Zhao Guangli estimated that with his current level, it would be extremely easy to defeat his mentor in a one-on-one battle.

After all...the order mage whose main monster is [Grass Beast] can only have this level.

In the [Holy Tree Courtyard], Zhao Guangli prepared to protect Lu Baiju.

As the Song clan's Tianzhao banquet approached, all kinds of information was passively known to Zhao Guangli.

First, a few of my good friends.

News came out from the Chao clan that Chao Yi Ji was successfully promoted to a full-level knight. Chao Yi Ji was a genius at Chao clan, but no one thought that Chao Yi Ji would choose to be promoted so quickly.

Yuan Clan and Yuan Qingci were successfully promoted to the official level [Shadow Assassin] and publicly announced their separation from Yuan Clan.

The round face is really well done.

Zhao Guangli thought so.

Trevithick made no sound. According to Chao Yiji, Trevithick seemed to have been transferred from the Gear Academy to the Academy of Mechanical Sciences.

The science and technology center of the entire human world, the [Academy of Mechanical Sciences], is not even accessible to the imperial court, which also means that Zhao Guangli still has no way of knowing what happened to Bird's Nest Head.

It seems that everyone is working hard to prepare for the field test.

Except for a certain classmate Chen Zhi.

Zhao Guangli really didn't know whether Chen Zhi had been promoted to the official level.

Looking at her laziness, Zhao Guangli always felt helpless.

"Boy, big things have happened in the alliance recently."

Su Lin's voice brought Zhao Guangli's thoughts back to reality.

"Isn't it because my murder of Fu Bai was exposed?"

Zhao Guangli lazily walked out of the bathroom.

"Tch." Su Lin curled his lips: "This is the latest news."

"The military frontline is in emergency. Some frontline military generals have returned to the Emperor's Capital to seek help from the Alliance Council and nobles."

"At present, the nobles and the House of Lords have not responded to this. It seems to be quite difficult for the House of Commons."

Emergency on the front line?

Zhao Guangli's expression moved slightly.

"The demons in the disaster area are rioting... This is unlikely."

"Even if there is a demon riot in a disaster area, it is enough for the military to allocate some manpower. Why do high-level generals need to go to the Emperor's Capital to ask for help?"

"This doesn't make sense."

Zhao Guangli thought that to reach this level, more than one-third of the disaster area suppressed by the alliance would need to riot at the same time.

This situation...is really unlikely.

"It's really unlikely. If such a thing really happened, the Parliament and the nobles would have exploded long ago."

"That……"

Zhao Guangli did not have a particularly clear understanding of the political situation of the entire alliance, so he humbly asked Su Lin in front of him for advice.

Su Lin raised his head confidently, glanced at Zhao Guangli, and then coughed.

"The military is putting pressure on us."

"Everyone knows that the largest extraordinary force in the human world is not the nobility, not the parliament, not the Northern Alliance... but the military."

"The army conquers everything and becomes invincible in the world."

"Any powerful monsters and anomalies are nothing more than resources in the eyes of the military. This also makes it difficult for the alliance center to have clear control over the military. There is an Eastern proverb: "If the general is outside, the emperor's fate will be different.

This is the principle of acceptance."

Zhao Guangli's brows tightened, as if he was thinking about something.

Su Lin didn't care and continued talking.

"If the military wants to kill demons, the alliance must provide resources. This is a fact that cannot be changed. This has been the case since the alliance was first established."

"It's just that the [nobles] showed up."

Noble again?

Zhao Guangli groaned.

"The increasingly powerful nobles have taken control of the lifeblood of the human economy. They control the entire Alliance Council... Oh, actually from my point of view it should be called [us]."

Su Lin teased himself without hesitation.

"The strength of the military is an absolute hidden danger for the nobles and the alliance. This has nothing to do with the heroic fighting of the soldiers. It is just because the military is too powerful and the politicians of the alliance cannot control it. That's all."

"Cutting military expenditures, proposing a huddle-down defensive policy, and even some government orders that seem crazy now are all aimed at restraining the military and keeping it in a balanced state."

Su Lin's speaking speed was very calm, and he just spoke eloquently.

"For this reason, the military is also divided into two factions that we currently know [the doves] and the [hawks]."

"The [Eagle Faction] is the main battle force, striving to suppress the disaster area with absolute power and marching towards the deeper dark realm. It is also the faction to which the facial paralysis woman belongs. The forced recruitment is issued by this faction. The main content is

If you want the nobles to stand out, after all, the nobles occupy an outrageous amount of alliance resources."

Su Lin looked at Zhao Guangli: "Boy, you should have a general understanding of Song Yuan's party last night."

Zhao Guangli nodded.

Indeed it is.

Last night, Song Garden.

Zhao Guangli has never seen so many truly advanced people in his life.

Not including the monsters hiding in the dark.

Elegance that is rare in ordinary times seems to be everywhere in Song Garden.

This is the aristocracy that occupies absolute resources.

"The blood essence weapon is about to be born. Once it is born, the weight of the military will be greatly reduced, and the powerful nobles will gain the right to speak. This is something the military does not want to see."

"Military Lieutenant General [Ghost] Yao Zhaohu has arrived at the Emperor's Capital for this very purpose, to obtain as many resources as possible before the blood essence weapon is born..."

Su Lin turned over a page of the newspaper: "So, there is another thing here."

"Chen Zhi's mentor, Gu Chaoran, the professor of Tianxu Academy, proposed to the alliance a proposal to enter the [Sub-Hell Zone] at the same time. At this time point, it is really difficult not to doubt that this is what Gu Chaoran and the military hawks have already

Things that have been discussed.”

"At this moment, the coalition election has just concluded, and the political resources and direction are still unclear."

Zhao Guangli's expression gradually calmed down.

He digested what Su Lin said.

If it is true as Su Lin said, the military is obviously trying to force the palace.

The purpose is to allow the nobles and alliance to expend a large amount of resources.

"In the final analysis, it is still a blood essence weapon."

Zhao Guangli's face moved slightly: "Once the blood essence weapons are developed, the military department will probably purchase them as soon as possible... It's outrageous."

Su Lin shrugged: "It's just so outrageous."

"Standard weapons made from the blood of living people do have a huge market. After all, theoretically speaking, the most indispensable thing in the Sky Drive Alliance is people."

Zhao Guangli nodded.

This topic will stop here for the time being.

The blood cavity is still running in the Emperor's Capital, and this is not a situation that Zhao Guangli can change by himself.

Thinking of this, Zhao Guangli felt a little upset in his chest. He asked Su Lin to stay in the Institute of Botany and opened the door of the room alone.

The air outside the house was fresh. Zhao Guangli stretched his muscles and stopped by the teaching department of Tianqi Academy.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Zhao Guangli always feels that Tianquyuan has become a little depressed now.

The second-year students are basically no longer visible. It is said that all of them have gone to the front line due to forced recruitment, or their families are nobles and have found an excuse to hide behind closed doors.

That inexplicable feeling made Zhao Guangli shiver.

"Classmate Zhao Guangli, today is the weekend. Do you have anything to do when you come to the teaching building?"

A graceful female voice came from behind Zhao Guangli. Zhao Guangli turned his head, and a handsome girl wearing a knight's uniform came into Zhao Guangli's eyes.

Zhao Guangli remembered this girl.

The current student union president of Tianqiyuan is Wen Yangxiu, a literary figure.

Speaking of which, Zhao Guangli only met this girl during the few days he was in school.

If I have to say it, I need to be more familiar with Vice President McGillis.

"Oh, I've been messing around day and night recently, and my schedule has been a little messed up." Zhao Guangli said calmly, "I forgot that there are no classes today."

Wen Yuanxiu looked at Zhao Guangli's face, as if judging whether Zhao Guangli's words were a joke. After staring for a few seconds, a kind smile appeared on the girl's elegant face.

"Classmate Zhao Guangli, are you interested in chatting?"

Zhao Guangli stared at this girl.

"It would be a great pleasure to be able to chat with a beautiful senior sister."

…

Inside Tianqiyuan, cafe.

Zhao Guangli's understanding of Wen Yuanxiu was very rough.

All I know is that she is the eldest lady of a noble family. It is said that she has a very good reputation and is a talented knight professional.

Zhao Guangli felt it slightly, but did not feel the power coming from Wen Yuanxiu's body.

Like yourself, are you hiding it?

"Sister Literary, what's the matter?"

Zhao Guangli said.

Wen Yangxiu's slender legs were slightly tilted, making her appear calm and unhurried.

"It's nothing. I just wanted to ask you if you are interested in joining our student union."

Zhao Guangli's expression changed slightly: "Sister Wenwen, are you kidding me?"

"No." Wen Yangxiu shook his head: "I never joke."

"I killed the nobles, and I am now the public enemy of the nobles. I angered [Crow Face], those killers from the dark world... Miss Literary, is this a big deal in the world?"

Wen Yuanxiu did not speak, but looked directly at Zhao Guangli.

As her beautiful eyes rolled around, Wen Yang showed a hint of complexity on her delicate face.

"You're going to die."

"Zhao Guangli."

Zhao Guangli's face was expressionless, with only a hint of laziness in his pupils.

This woman...knows something else.

"Song Garden?"

Zhao Guangli said in a low voice.

Wen Yuanxiu finally appeared a little surprised. She put the coffee cup on the table. Through the surrounding fragrance, Wen Yuanxiu's voice was neither loud nor quiet.

"So...you already knew?"

"Song Tingyu is planning to take action against you."
