Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

After hearing the old knight's angry curses, some people who didn't believe it came to check, but it eventually turned into even louder curses.

"So, can you tell me where you got this letter and ticket?

Dear guest?

Are you a distinguished guest of the Chamber of Commerce? "

After reading it, the bar owner, Bald Martin, first joined everyone in cursing the Chamber of Commerce, and then looked at Suixiang and asked.

“Of course not, this is given to me by the hotel.

When I got up and went out this morning, a waiter handed me this envelope.

I saw that he didn't remind me that the information needed to be kept confidential when he gave it to me. "

Suika vividly described what happened when she went out in the morning.

"Well, I know the hotel you're talking about. It's owned by the Business Federation, but why would they tell you this and give you a valuable ticket?"

Bald Martin seemed even more confused. After all, the Chamber of Commerce said that it did not know the information of the contestants on the next day, and then it exposed the news of the next day. Isn't this slapping itself in the face?

"Uh, could it be related to where I live?" Suixiang tilted her head and thought about it, then she figured out the reason.

The price of the top presidential suite was there, and he paid for half a month's fee in one lump sum.

It is normal to be treated as a VIP and given some benefits.

"Where you live...you're not staying in the shabby room at the top, are you?"

Bald Martin is a businessman indeed. He immediately understood what Suika meant and blurted it out.

Suika stared at Martin with dead eyes.

"Yes, I am the country bumpkin who lives in the country bumpkin's private room, and I even paid half a month's rent in one lump sum."

Hearing Suika's words, everyone present gasped.

The shabby private room that Martin mentioned is the most expensive room in the most expensive hotel in the entire Great Knight Territory. Except for those invited by the Chamber of Commerce, almost no one would be willing to pay to stay in it.

After all, most of the time people who come to the Great Knight's Territory are out having fun, and the rooms are just a place to rest at night.

Even Colombian capitalists would be heartbroken to pay such a high price for a night's sleep.

So here, everyone laughs at me, saying that only a stupid country bumpkin would choose to live in that place.

Not only did Suixiang live there, but she also lived there for half a month at a time. The amount of money made the poor people present feel dizzy just thinking about it.

"If that's the case, it does make sense.

Those guys in the Business Association have always believed that money is everything, and how could they not pay attention to a distinguished guest like you who spends so much money?"

The old knight cursed the Chamber of Commerce again and then remembered something and quickly reminded Suika.

In his opinion, this ticket was actually just a bait. Judging from the atmosphere when the Great Knight was leading the competition, even a warrior with a strong mind would be unable to resist buying a ticket to win or lose, let alone a child like Suixiang.

As long as she went to the scene, the people from the Chamber of Commerce would arrange a few brokers to create a good atmosphere around her. How could such a customer who was willing to spend money on accommodation be unwilling to place a small bet?

And the consequences of getting caught up in gambling...

After listening to the old knight's thoughts, Suixiang nodded. She never underestimated the evil of human nature, especially the Commercial Federation, which openly engaged in gambling.

After all, how could someone who makes money from this thing be a good person?

"But then again, what do you think the chances are of these two knights winning tomorrow's exhibition match?"

Suika continued asking after she promised not to participate in gambling.

"Let's split it 30-70. Candle Knight gets 70 and Frost Knight gets 30." The old knight said, pointing at Candle Knight's name.

"I don't think so. The Candle Knight is indeed quite skilled, but the Frost Knight's methods have chilling and freezing effects. If the Candle Knight is careless, he can easily overturn the situation. So I think it's a 50-50 chance."

And the first exhibition match must be as exciting as possible. The people in the Business Federation are not fools. They would not allow two people with such a huge gap in strength to compete in such an important match."

Bald Martin did not agree with the old knight's opinion. He might not be as strong and far-sighted as the old knight, but he understood the Chamber of Commerce.

As an important means of attracting attention, exhibition matches must be exciting.

Only when it attracts enough attention will more people choose to participate in the knight competition, and they will be able to make more money.

Therefore, this kind of exhibition match is either a crushing battle with a huge gap in strength, or a protracted battle in which both sides are not very strong but the fighting style is gorgeous and eye-catching.

Obviously, the two players in tomorrow's exhibition match belong to the latter.

Listening to the old knight and Martin's unconvinced argument, others soon joined in, and the scope of their comments on the knight gradually expanded, and the bar became lively again.

Chapter 237: Aunt is so pretty

Suika, who was about to leave, sat back down.

Although this body is not that of a Great Flame person, the Great Flame soul that loves to watch the fun is still there inside.

If you leave without watching the fun, you will be punished by God.

The various accidents and troubles she encountered along the way kept her in a state of mental tension.

Until today, sitting in this bar, watching everyone, you say "I started with Candle Knight and spread the field, Frost Knight can't even touch Candle Knight" and he says "As long as Frost Knight's spells hit Candle Knight and freeze him, then the battle will be a foregone conclusion."

The main point is that no one can convince anyone else.

This lively atmosphere finally relaxed Suika's tense heart.

Since she knew the "least" about the two knights, she was appointed as the referee.

Both sides took turns to tell her about their own advantages and how to deal with the opponent.

After listening to the Candle Knight's words, she nodded and said, "That's right, a Candle Knight who successfully spreads the field is invincible."

After listening to the Frost Knight's explanation, he agreed and said, "That's right. In this kind of weather, even a fully armed knight's lining wouldn't be very thick. Once the cold affects their movements, then..."

As the referee, she sat in the middle and swayed from side to side, becoming the object of competition between both sides.

Just as both sides were arguing over this, the door of the bar was opened again.

Maria came in with a blonde beauty

Maria breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Suika was still there.

"Aunt, that's her!"

The blonde woman looked at Suika and was a little surprised at her youth.

"Are you the one who brought the news about Margaret?"

Suixiang deliberately looked at the other person's iconic Kuranta tail before saying, "Yes, judging from your hair color, you must be a relative of the Radiant Knight."

"Yes, I am Margaret's aunt in terms of seniority, but since she left Casimir, we have lost contact with her, just like we lost contact with her parents.

The news you brought back about her this time is very important to Maria, to me, and to the entire Linguang family.

I'm here to ask for a favor.

Maria said Margaret is working on some island now...

Could you show me that place?

It's not that I'm worried, but I haven't heard from her in a long time, so even if it's not her but her workplace, it would be nice if we could find out a little more."

The woman looked at Suika with a pleading look on her face.

How could Suika refuse her aunt's words? She nodded.

“But this is not the place to chat…”

"Let's go to my manor. It's quite quiet there. It seems that Mainna is not far away. I will send someone to ask him if he is interested in knowing the news about Margaret."

Sofia looked around and found that the lively atmosphere was indeed not suitable for chatting.

"Shall we go now?" Suixiang pointed at the people around her, indicating that she was the referee.

“Go ahead, little girl.

We can still distinguish between the important and the urgent. Here is your letter and ticket.

If you have time, you can come here and sit for a while. Although we are all "retired" old guys here, it's still okay to chat.

We are also very curious about Dayan and hope to hear more about what is going on there."

The store manager, Bald Martin, put away his expression that could scare a child to tears and tried to make himself look more friendly.

"Come on, Martin, your smile looks like a sunflower watered by that tumorous animal shit, it's almost wrinkled." A drinking buddy next to him laughed.

"Damn it! Is it my decision how I look like this?! If you're laughing, there's no more wine for today!"

Martin, whose soft spot was hit, cursed angrily.

Amid the laughter of the crowd, Suika said goodbye to everyone and followed Zofia and Maria out of the bar.

Soon, several people arrived at Zofia's manor, but the servant who went to look for Mainna came back and said that Mainna was not in the residence. The maid in charge of cleaning said that he had left the residence after receiving the news from the Supervisory Committee in the morning, and the exact time of his return was unknown.

"Forget it, I can tell him the news later." Sofia didn't seem to care about Mainna's absence, or she had already expected Mainna's absence.

Looking at the fruits and refreshing drinks brought by the maid, Suika blinked

"Um, can you change my drink to wine?"

"Alcohol...at your age...is not a good idea!" From Zofia's words, it can be heard that Maria did not tell her everything that happened in the bar, otherwise she would not say such a thing.

"It's okay. I have a quirk. I drink wine like water. Of course, it would be best if the wine had some unique characteristics."

As Suika was speaking, Maria whispered to Zofia what had happened before. Zofia glanced at Suika in surprise and said

“Speaking of which, I have a bottle of red wine from before the fall of Gaul, but I’ve never been willing to drink it.

Since you are a good drinker and you have brought news about my poor Margaret, then a bottle of wine is nothing. Wait..."

Zofia stretched out her hand to call the maid and asked her to get some wine. Then Suixiang picked up a piece of iced watermelon, took two bites, and sat down with satisfaction.

"I don't know much about Margaret. I heard some of it from my colleagues when I was in Rhodes Island.

I will tell you what I know about her and Rhodes Island.

However, as a mobile land ship, I’m not sure where Rhodes Island is currently, but I can only guess that it’s sailing between Victoria or Leithania…”

Then, Suika talked about the group called "Apostles" that Margaret belonged to and the composition and structure of Rhodes Island.

After hearing what Suika said, the two of them fell into silence.

They did have some guesses, but the reality was even more outrageous than their guesses.

First of all, I didn’t expect that Margaret would become good friends with the two Sarkaz after leaving Casimir.

Then there's the fact that the organization Margaret works for, called Rhodes Island, doesn't sound like a legitimate medical company at all.

After all, how could a medical company have a large number of "field" operators in its internal structure?

Of course, considering the local conditions and customs of Terra, such a large private mobile landship that has separated from the country would have been swallowed up by jealous people or organizations long ago if it did not have sufficient military support.

Thinking about it this way, it’s not too surprising that Rhodes Island has so many military forces.

But Suika's words were one-sided after all, and she herself admitted that she was from Rhodes Island, so her words would naturally lean towards Rhodes Island. So Zofia was ready to collect relevant information about Rhodes Island during the conversation.

Chapter 238 Whip VS Meteor Hammer

As for Margaret, Sophia naturally trusted her strength.

But she also worries that her kindness will be exploited - especially after witnessing the evil and greed of capital firsthand.

Zofia doesn't trust any capital or company, especially this company that treats mineralogy, and Margaret happens to be an "infected person".

Of course, this doesn't mean that she doesn't trust Suika in front of her.

On the contrary, she was very grateful to Suika for bringing her the news about Margaret, and she also described the so-called Rhodes Island in relatively detail.

However, Zofia also noticed that Suika, who was familiar with the past and present of Rhodes Island, was concealing some key issues.

But she just felt that perhaps Rhodes Island had "cheated" the other party.

After all, the other party doesn't look very old, and he must have some skills to be able to become a messenger of natural disasters and roam in the wilderness.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for a little girl to walk freely in the man-eating wilderness.

After a few people chatted for a while, Suixiang said

"Before I came here, I watched Margaret's match on TV.

She is very good at stretching her hands. As her family, I think you are also good at it.

After eating so much, why don’t we move around a bit?”
