[Eternal Capital of Seven Days] Don't try to abandon me this time

The sixth day

Came near Hiero's temporary residence, which is a western mansion far away from the city center.The commander seemed to have remembered something, his face turned blue, and then he collapsed from all strength.

"What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

A gentle voice pierced into his ears, and his body was also supported by the other party.

"I'm fine." The commander smiled, and tried his best to cheer up and thank the people who came, "Thank you, Mr. Wulu."

"It's fine. Why did the Commander come here? Did he get lost?" Wulu looked around, but didn't see any other Divine Weapons around the Commander, so he said, "If you don't mind, I will escort you back. Right. The Commander is an ordinary person after all, so it would be bad to encounter monsters without the company of the Artifact Master.”

"Mr. Wulu is really a good man." The commander said with a light smile. Although his body instinctively rejected this place, he still tried his best to stand firm and insisted on continuing today.

Seeing that Wu Lu was carrying bags of all sizes, the commander shook his head, "No need, I still have a lot of things to do today. Say 'Happy New Year' to the children for me."

"Yeah. But Lilina and the others all want to see the Commander."

"Another day." The commander leaned against the big tree next to him and sighed softly.

Seeing that his expression had not improved, Wu Lu couldn't help but asked again worriedly, "Is your body really all right?"

"It's just some psychological barriers. I'll be fine just by taking a break." The commander waved to Wulu, "Don't worry, go back. When I am qualified to see them, I will go."

Wulu took a deep look at the commander.

Since the appearance of the black gate, various tragedies have occurred in the border city every day. Everyone's eyes are more or less sad, and it is not surprising that the commander made his eyes show sadness.

But this sadness seemed to be mixed with many other emotions, so that Wu Lu felt that the person standing in front of him was far away from him.

"I like children very much." Wu Lu said suddenly.

"Huh?" The commander looked at Wu Lu in confusion.

Wulu looked into the distance and said softly, "Adults always pay more attention to darkness, but children are more sensitive to sunlight. Sunlight never pervades the earth, but people can come out. Many people forget about it when they grow up. over that."

——

"In this way...should not wake up for a while."

"Let me add a time constraint for emergency braking to her."

As soon as he walked in, he saw Hiro talking to Ann. The commander knocked on the door of the research room and said in a normal tone, "Sorry, I'm late."

"Ah, you're here." Hiro greeted him, "It's not easy to find this place, is it? Ann told me that I was really surprised when you decided to hide the death of Seham."

"How is she?" The commander asked blankly.

"You said Sai Hamm? Well, it will be fine for the time being. Alright, Ann, continue to pay attention to the values ​​​​on the device board." Hero confessed, and took the commander to the lounge outside the research room.

Shiro took out two cups, "Would you like a cup? The special coffee made by Ann is very good in a sense."

"I think I need another thing more now." The conductor leaned on the leather sofa with his pale face on one hand.

That looks like a weak, poor puppy.

Shiro smiled, put the cup on the table, walked over and touched the commander's head, and said in a soft tone, "It seems that I am really frightened. Rest. I wanted to tell you about Saiha... …Well……?!"

When the commander suddenly came up to kiss him, Hiro almost didn't react. Although his body instinctively wanted to retreat, the commander grabbed the collar of his jacket in advance, and instead leaned forward, leaning directly on the commander.Rubbing the cloth, the postures of the two were extremely ambiguous, and the young man easily took the lead, plundering forcefully and frantically, as if a long-hungry traveler had finally found an oasis.

But...he is not an oasis that the other party can rely on.

"What do you want..." The moment Hiro broke free from the commander, Hero wanted to yell, and he became more and more presumptuous, but seeing the commander's expression, he couldn't say anything harsh again, "Hey, hey , What kind of expression is this?" It was clear that he was the one who was taken advantage of, but the one with the aggrieved expression was the other party.

It's incomprehensible.

"Hero." The commander spoke softly, but his eyes were fixed on the silver-haired man in front of him. He couldn't tell how much resentment was hidden in his eyes, and how much hatred and love were intertwined.

Shiro just shifted his gaze lightly.None of this has anything to do with him.He didn't even care, this was the first time the commander called him by his name directly.

For him, it is just a pawn that can be used.Since it is a chess piece, it will be thrown away one day.

There is no need to take into account the emotions of a pawn.

So he said, "Ann has already told you everything about the reincarnation, so..."

"You don't need to talk." The commander interrupted him, looked away and said in a cold tone, "I'm not interested in the matter of the living skeleton. I just want to know one thing, whether you can save Sai Hamm ?”

"I'll try."

Such an ambiguous answer certainly has no way to convince the commander, so Shiro said while handing the poured coffee to the commander, "This is a difficult process, but it is worth it, what do you think?"

The commander didn't know what he was thinking, he stared at the strangely colored coffee in the cup and didn't speak for a long time.

"An artifact user with special abilities should be a hero who descended from the sky, and more importantly, a partner. I don't want to lose any of my partners, let alone destroy them with my own hands, but Antoineva insists that once the artifact user turns into a living corpse, he must be eliminated. This is the difference between me and Antoineva. However, since you will come to me and care so much about Syham's situation, then I think we should be on the same mind."

"If you think the Artifact Envoy is a hero, then what is the Commander?" The Commander suddenly asked, looking at Hero very seriously, "Or in other words, what are you and me?"

Hiro was a little dazed, and when he was about to answer, the commander stopped looking at him and said to himself, "I've been thinking about this question from the very beginning. Why is there a difference between the magician and the commander?" With such a relationship, why are all the artifact masters so tolerant towards me, as if I would be praised as long as I simply stretched out my hand. It's so easy."

"So, have you thought it through?" Hero asked.

"Hmm." The commander put down his coffee and walked towards the painting hanging on the wall, "Antoineva seems to be smart but not smart. He always pins his hopes on the commander again and again." He said firmly Looking at the puppets in the painting, "Maybe she thinks that everyone thinks the same as her. For this world, they will fight until the last moment." He raised his hand and stroked the hair of the puppet on the far left through the air. Actions.

Hiro watched his series of actions with interest, "And then?"

"But she missed it." The commander put down his actions, "I'm a cowardly person. Compared to turning the artifact into a living skeleton, I'm more afraid that I will die."

"Hahahaha. You... are really interesting." Hiro laughed, "The purpose of your coming to me is not to ask for my protection, right? But don't forget, I am a commander just like you."

"That's why we have something in common."

"Oh? Talk about it."

"If the phantom power supporting the artifact user no longer needs to be provided by the commander, then the things I worry about will not happen. In other words, let the artifact user who has become a living skeleton retain his consciousness. In this way, we will not If you lose any of your partners, you don’t need to risk your life to supply them with energy.”

The commander turned his head, and saw the ice-blue eyes of the silver-haired man exuding icy coldness through the lenses, but he went straight to meet him without flinching.

"Your idea is very bold." Shiro took a sip of coffee and smiled again, "This is indeed a good idea, but it is very difficult and almost impossible."

"Well, because there is no time." The commander looked at Hiro calmly, "So, we must cooperate. The central court will obviously collapse one day sooner or later, and it will become our hindrance. I plan to leave tomorrow, just need Your help. In a short period of time, I can only gather five artifacts to follow me, but this is obviously not enough to break out of the central courtyard, and I have no other place to stay."

Facing the young man's invitation, Hiro was surprised and excited at the same time.

He has no doubt now that the other party is a terrible opponent.

After waking up for less than two days, he didn't seem to do anything, but he saw the whole situation clearly.

It is clear that he is a cowardly person who is afraid of death, but he dares to take such a big risk to form an alliance with himself behind Antoineva's back.In other words, he was a crazy gambler, crazy enough to bet his own life.This weird contradiction is obviously so abrupt, but reasonable.

"Since your strength is so weak, why should I cooperate with you?" Hero asked, and he wanted to see how he would convince himself.

"Because you are the same as the Central Court, you have no other choice except me."

——

Because the Spring Festival is approaching, festive red lanterns are hung everywhere in Dongfang Ancient Street, and pedestrians walking on the street are also smiling and greeting each other.

The commander stared blankly out of the window, with an imperceptible smile slightly raised at the corner of his mouth.

Sometimes it's easier not to know anything.

"You really said that?" Zhong Hangu took the two cups of freshly brewed tea from the tray brought by the bottle monster, and handed a cup to the commander.

"Yes." The commander took the cup, lowered his head and blew gently, and then took a small sip.

"Then he handed Saiham to you?" Zhong Hangu still felt it was incredible, "So easy?"

Leaving aside what kind of person Hero is, just ordering the messy guarantee, it is estimated that only Dag will believe it.Thinking of this, he looked tiredly at Dag who was sitting next to the commander, eating chicken legs.

……

"But it's too difficult for me." Zhong Hangu said, "Although I like corpses. But..."

The commander picked up a box from his feet and put it on the table.When I opened it, I saw that it was full of glittering gold bars, which almost blinded Zhong Hangu's eyes.

"This is a deposit." The commander said.

"This...it's easy." Zhong Hangu accepted the gold bars with a smile, and summoned a bottle monster, letting it hold the box of gold bars and receive them into his small treasury. It’s good that all the commanders are such refreshing people.”

"Yes." The commander said while patting Dag's head, "I went to inspect Hero's research institute today, whether it is mechanical equipment or daily necessities, it is better than the central courtyard. Moreover, although I just glanced at it for a while, there are many antiques and picture scrolls inside the mansion, which I think should be treasures. I will steal a few of them and give them to you. Or if you want gold bars directly, I can also first Go to the subnet market and sell it and give it to you."

Zhong Hangu's raised phoenix eyes became even more raised after hearing the commander's shameless remarks, and his red eyes sparkled with an intoxicating smile, "It's as if those are all yours. You just So sure he will let you live in?"

"Yeah." The commander nodded without any doubt, "Didn't I say that he has no choice." Then, he took another sip from the cup and sighed, "Oh, it's a little cold already. I still have a place to go, and Saiham will give it to you, see you tomorrow."

"Good luck."

"Let's go, Dag, we should go back to the central court."

Holding Dag in one hand and holding the enamel pot in the other, the conductor left the ancient Dongfang Street in a hurry.

"Oh my goodness. After living for so many years, I seem to have met someone interesting." Zhong Hangu rested his head on one hand, lazily looking at the gradually blurred figures of the two through the window.

How will things develop tomorrow?

The author has something to say:

Of course, those who go to the central court are looking for ghost cards.The other one will be announced on the fifth day~

It's just a skinny, don't worry about the configuration
