Son of the Olden Days
Chapter 20: President's Attitude
Just when the hand axe raised high on the chain was about to fall.
"I have a friend who can come and go freely in the wilderness."
After yelling this sentence at his fastest speed, Shuggs pressed his forehead against the desk and silently closed his eyes.
What to fear is not pain, but the withering of life.
There was silence in the storage room, and nothing happened.
Slowly opened his eyes, Shuggs tried to move his fingers, and felt the sweat drip down the fingertips. He breathed a sigh of relief, his hands still there.
The word benevolence is definitely not in the chain dictionary. The reason why the force of the hand axe fell in time was undeniable that Shuggs' words promptly aroused his interest.
In terms of the personal strengths of the three high-level thieves guild present, they all have a wealth of adventure experience with each other, and have never thought that entering the dark wilderness is such a great thing.
But they are not good enough to say the words ‘come and go freely’.
After all, with so many monsters and monsters running around in the wilderness, no one can tell which death or luck comes first.
From Chains' point of view, Hughes suddenly mentioned that he had a seemingly powerful friend when he was dying at the moment. Whether it was a fictitious lie or a bluff, nothing could be changed.
On the contrary, there is a faint taste of shock and threat from the words that Shuggs shouted. Even if that was not the original intention of Shuggs, it will only make this little mouse die more miserable in the end, because of this sentence. Words are tantamount to provoking the chairman's patience and bottom line.
Sure enough, the chain turned his head and saw that the face of the president's fangs had gradually become gloomy, but he was not in a hurry, and stepped aside with the mood of watching a good show, waiting for Shuggs' new judgment.
Fang's gaze returned to Shuggs's face again, and Shuggs was almost breathless with the substantive aura in that sharp gaze.
After swallowing hard, Shuggs could only continue to speak against the guild leader's sight.
"My friend is a capable person. In fact, he can bring back a few fresh fish from the wilderness every day. Although the number is small, I will often get his help during this time."
"Now, I am willing to give up all dignity and beg him."
"Every day, I promise to offer a fresh fish to the guild every day in the future to redeem my sins. Until the famine passes, you will still see my unchanging loyalty to the guild."
When he spoke, Shuggs's nose was a little sour. Although he looked directly at the president, what he saw in a daze was the back of Sol holding a fishing rod and sitting alone under the candlelight.
After listening to Shuggs's words, Fang fell into silence again, the sharpness in his eyes slowly condensed, but there were more complexities that Shuggs could not understand.
Seeing Shuggs's struggle, the expression on Chains was a little funny.
Although what Shuggs said was a bit unexpected, with his understanding of Fang Fang, he was not a good person. What qualifications and face does an ant-like existence have to negotiate with the chairman.
Although Gray Screen Town has always been a chaotic and disorderly place, Shuggs's theft challenged the dignity of the entire guild. Now this situation is far from being easily wiped out by paying a mere profit.
What's more, there is still a surplus of food in the guild, far from the point where it can't be opened.
After putting aside the special attributes brought about by the food shortage, a **** fresh fish can at best add a flavor to the guild, and it is not worth mentioning.
The storage room fell into silence again, and everyone was waiting for the president's final decision.
The words that can be said have been said, and Shuggs's heart is extremely heavy.
This is indeed his last hole card, not even a hole card at all, because the chips are too light.
After a while, the president's fangs stared at Shuggs and uttered two words.
"Two."
Hearing the voice of Fang Fang, Shuggs almost couldn't believe it for a while.
The next moment, his trembling heart was instantly occupied by ecstasy, and he actually...passed the level! ? And it seems to be able to retreat all over! ?
"As you wish, your honorable chairman." Shuggs lowered his humble gaze at the right time.
"Go away." Fang's gaze finally left.
It wasn't until this time that Shuggs really breathed a sigh of relief. Although his heart was full of doubts, as long as he survived the last link, his hands would be saved.
The chain is also unimaginable for this unexpected treatment result. Based on his understanding of the president, this kind of handling and handling is definitely not a style of fangs.
His face trembled, and the chain seemed to want to say something, but when he turned his head and saw the fangs look impatient, the fingers holding his elbow flicked like flies away, as if he was greedy for life and fear of death. The little mouse or the thing itself is a bit bored.
Chains will definitely not question the president's decision face to face for the life and death of an ant. It is irrational, no matter how unpleasant to see Shuggs, it is after all a private grievance between the two of them.
Turning around with a sullen look, the chain violently ripped off the rope from Shuggs's wrist, lifted Shuggs's back like a chicken and threw him into the empty corner, and then fists and feet rang in the air. The sound of meat.
Shuggs hugged his head tightly, bowed his whole body, and could only protect his vitals through some tumbling and curling up.
Helpless space is limited, and most injuries are unavoidable after all.
Feeling that the bones of his arm seemed to be broken, Shuggs still gritted his teeth and said nothing.
It's just a beating, compared to the life that I almost ruined, I have already made a lot of money.
The muffled sound of the physical beating lasted for a while, until the president’s fangs knocked the tabletop with his heels, and the chain moved his over-strengthened arm to slap on the ground, not paying attention to the muddy repairs. Gus.
Shuggs wanted to just lie on the ground and sleep for a while, but after gritted his teeth, he finally struggled to get up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, limped open the door of the storage room and walked out.
resentment? There must be.
But before you have enough power, you must first learn to drink Yin Ren as bitter wine.
Fortunately, I am still alive, there is still time, and everything has a chance.
Standing at the end of the aisle, Shuggs looked back and took a deep look at the direction of the storage room, then turned and disappeared on the rope ladder.
"We just let go of that treacherous little bastard?"
Chained's tone was a little violent, walking back and forth a few steps, and asked the doubts in his heart. He instinctively felt that the reason for moving the chairman was definitely not two small fishes, but he couldn't catch the point.
Fang Fang ignored him, closed his eyes and leaned on the back of his chair, quietly and calmly.
"I'll send someone to stare at him."
Seeing that the chairman did not respond, the chain still turned around and walked towards the storage room door.
In his opinion, there are too many loopholes in Hugues' performance today, as long as someone is to keep an eye on him, collect or fabricate a few handles, and there are so many ways to crucify this little mouse.
Just as the chain's outstretched hand was about to hit the doorknob, the Deacon Freel, who hadn't said a word from beginning to end during the whole process, suddenly said something to himself.
"That man came back after all."
After a while, as if responding to Deacon Freel, the president's Fang also answered in due course.
"...I don't know if there will be any chance to drink together in the future."
the man?
As if suddenly struck by lightning, the hand out of the chain trembled suddenly, and the hairs all over his body stood up.
A ghost in the dark night suddenly flashed through his mind, Iser!
Although the chains are a bit reckless, they are not stupid, let alone incompetent.
After Deacon Freel made such a side point, some cryptic clues were connected in an instant, and everything seemed to be explained.
If Izel was standing behind Shuggs in this matter, it would not be surprising that the president showed a certain tolerance and concession. After all, Iser is something special for the entire guild after all, and strictly speaking he is still a member of the thieves’ guild.
Shuggs's hand to the guild shouldn't come from Izel's instruction, because the man never disdains this kind of tricks. But whether it was or not, Shuggs was the closest person to Izel in the entire guild after all.
Thinking of this, the chain instantly extinguished the idea of sending people to follow Shuggs. Faced with the monster of Iser, even if he took the shot himself, he would only flee in the end.
What's more, only panic was left in Chains at this moment, because he believed Izer was dead.
After all, since the mission six months ago, the man never appeared again, and no news came.
Chain has never dared to tear his face with Izer head-on, the strength of the two sides is not at the same level at all, but he will never miss the opportunity to insert a knife in the back.
In the mission led by Chains six months ago, there were a total of five participants, Chains, Izer, and an official thief named Kook Hook, and two trainees who were responsible for running errands to inquire about news.
It is true to encounter powerful enemies in the wilderness.
It’s just that in the chaos where the team was dispersing and fighting each other, when the powerful Izer attracted the attention of most of the enemies, Chains not only failed to gather the crowd in time to give support, but decisively led the other three to evacuate, or Saying to escape, leaving the greatest danger to Iser.
The three people who follow the chain are very clear about what this kind of abandonment means, but the human heart is like this. My life will always be more precious than others, and those who have the ability should sacrifice.
In the face of life and death, all morality and righteousness will go to hell.
It's a pity that Izer has taken most of the danger, but the countless flying monsters obviously have no plans to let others go.
Running to the end in a panic, only Chain and one of the more fortunate trainees survived.
Chain naturally didn't have the courage to look back to confirm the life and death of Iser, but he felt that there should be little suspense in his heart.
After sending the newcomer who followed him to meet his ancestors, Huo Lian returned to the guild alone.
He knows very well how to tell a half-truth story, after all, the relevant rhetoric has been well-known in the middle of the journey.
