Chapter 540: Team Hidden Dangers
Misha was Sehira's first servant, a heroic female warrior. But she definitely can't be called a royal sister, because there is too little femininity, and the aura of a female man is too heavy. In fact, it seems that this girl's qualifications are not bad, although she is stronger, but she can actually be regarded as an athletic beauty if she dresses up carefully, which is really a tyrannical thing.
Indeed, although Sehireu is the first generation of "nouveau riche" from a civilian background, his net worth can be regarded as a rich woman, and he has indeed reached the point of subordination. However, it is said that she accidentally fell off the boat to save the female man, indicating that their relationship is at least to the point of best friends, and they are only one step away from Lily. From a gentleman's point of view, lily paper is a scarce and valuable resource, because if you soak one of them, you have a great chance of getting the other one in your pocket. But it's a pity that although the other party has the name "Mixia", which sounds quite soft, the femininity on his body is really insufficient, which makes Lu Xi feel a little disappointed.
In comparison, the other party was quite interested in Lu Xi. After everyone had been introduced, Miss Misha looked at Lu Xi with great interest, especially on the other party's beautiful face that had thrown herself a few streets away, and then let out a heavy sigh, revealing a "lost" expression.
Saying? What do you think you're losing? I always feel that the comparison is particularly hurtful?
As for Basil, this lieutenant colonel with the same name as a certain emperor in Lu Xi's hometown who brought Eastern Rome to its heyday, but he was a man in the prime of his life. He was about forty-five years old and tall, lean and tall. He has dark brown curly hair and sharp eyes that look like a wolf. This man doesn't talk much, and he seems to be a taciturn and old-fashioned person. Although his body is not strong and even a little thin, he looks like he doesn't say a word with a straight face. In fact, it is also very oppressive.
Lu Xi saw the lieutenant colonel half an hour after the search team returned. At that time, he had just eaten dinner, a small piece of Lambas biscuit and a roast leg of an unknown animal. Fortunately, although this meat has an obvious smell, it also has a strange crispy feeling, at least it is not more difficult to eat than the snow monsters and cave carvings that I have eaten at the beginning. He savored the fishy smell and unique taste that lingered in his mouth as he thought about his next move. By the time he finally realized that there was one more person in front of him, Lieutenant Colonel Basil had been standing in front of him for several seconds.
"First time meeting, right? Lieutenant Colonel Basil, I'm Lu Xi? Belencaster. Thank you for taking care of Sehiliu. ”
According to the rules established within the federal army. Magician-born officers are called "Captains", that is, a magician major is the same rank as a non-magician lieutenant colonel, and the former naturally does not need to call the latter "sir", but the latter must also bow respectfully to the former and call out "master". Of course, this is only the so-called "official" unspoken rule, but the truth is much more than that. A newly promoted lieutenant appointed by the central government as a front-line inspector faced those veteran officers who were several times his age, seniority, practical experience, command, and decisiveness. But he can call them around like dogs. In extreme cases, there are even examples of generals saluting lieutenants.
Of course, Lu Xi is not the kind of person who holds the idea of "I am a magician, I am a superior person", but he is not a revolutionary with a big heart, great wisdom and great compassion, ready to change the world. Be part of a vested interest. This kind of benefit would be too hypocritical if it was not used. Of course, as a native of the Celestial Empire, he is still a quiet, kind and beautiful man with upright views after all. In the face of such an old officer of the uncle's generation, it is reasonable to say hello first. You can't just hold a shelf and let the other person salute you first, right?
If Lieutenant Colonel Basil is a person with a lot of emotional intelligence and good at camping, he will definitely show an appropriately moved look for Lu Xi's "Corporal Lixian" at this time. This kind of moving look can't be too much. It's not good to make people feel too contrived; Of course, it can't be too superficial, if it is not seen by Lu Xi, it will be in vain. Therefore, if you don't understand a little bit of self-cultivation as an actor in officialdom, it is very difficult to move an inch. Of course, if you take this opportunity to chat with Lu Xi, the second generation of the top official in the Federation, and then show your ability and "loyalty" by the way, you will be favored by this future magnate who is destined to have an unlimited future, and think that he is a "person of temperament" who can be cultivated, then the security for the rest of his life will be there.
Of course, this is also the most normal choice for many Federation warriors. Either you have to become a retainer of a certain Arcane nobleman, or you have to be related to a certain Arcane Gate, or at least you have to become "your own person" in their faction. Otherwise, no matter how strong the ability is, the future will end here.
However, Lieutenant Colonel Basil is clearly not an ordinary martial artist. Facing the first greeting from Lu Xi, the top "powerful son" of the Federation, he just nodded expressionlessly, and spoke in a somewhat stiff tone, as stiff as steel that had just been quenched: "Your praise is really unacceptable!" Captain Moore is the backbone of the team, and it is also his duty to help her. ”
"Mr. Basil is a very strict man. Well, maybe even a little scary. But as long as you spend more time with him, you'll know. As a comrade-in-arms, there is no more reliable person than such a person. If it weren't for what Sai Xiliu said before, Lu Xi would have thought that the other party had an opinion about himself. Of course, although the other party's attitude was blunt, Lu Xi did not feel any malice, which could only be said to be due to the other party's character.
Alas...... With such a character and emotional intelligence, even if he is a brave general, but in the federation, a society that looks at the family, looks at the birth, looks at the character, and even looks at the face, being promoted to the lieutenant colonel can be regarded as a big shit luck.
Of course, if nothing else, the lieutenant colonel is the end of his career.
"Speaking of which, did you make any new discoveries when you led the team to search this time?"
"It only took another half a day, about five or six kilometers of exploration, and it was still the same type of rock passage and stone hall. However, some granaries and armories were found, and we brought back usable grain and some finished medicines. It took a little more time. Lieutenant Colonel Basil replied with a straight look, without the slightest concealment. Maybe it seems to him. When Lu Xi was away, Miss Student Union President was naturally the backbone of the team. Now that Lu Xi has arrived, the leadership has naturally shifted. Since he has already said that it is his duty to help Sai Xiliu, then now, it is naturally his duty to help Lu Xi.
What a stereotyped man who borders on a machine! Of course, perhaps every leader with a brain will like such subordinates. However, if you have to analyze it from the perspective of conspiracy theories, perhaps he also knows that he is not good at flattery, so he chooses the most suitable way to deal with things for himself - let everyone in the upper position know that he is a serious person who does business. A "useful" and "practical" person. Even if you can't become a leader, you will never be abandoned by the leader as an outcast.
…… Recently, it must have been Machiavelli and Hegel's two big foolish books that don't learn and don't know how to read too much, and Lu Xi almost couldn't help but pat his head. He hurriedly recited "The original nature of human beings is good" ten times in his heart, and then finally let the full of positive energy make up for the brain hole that broke through the sky, and then said: "Listen to Sai Xiliu, when you found the vault before, there was almost a mutiny?" It was also reluctantly suppressed by your immediate decision? ”
This may have been a very sensitive issue, and even Lieutenant Colonel Basil was silent for a few seconds before he said: "Even at the most dangerous moment and the greatest need for unity." Nor is it possible to avoid human selfishness; What's more, not every caster is as selfless and fearless as you and Miss Sehireu. Lieutenant Colonel Parahila, although he was an Austrian nobleman and the highest commander of the time, came up with the idea of 'distributing the spoils according to rank' at that time. It's really going to cause outrage. Of course, Sergeant Major Lindell and others attacked the commander on the spot, which was also very undesirable. It may even upend the team order that has been established so hard. ”
The other party said it in detail, and Lu Xi also guessed a rough idea. It is estimated that it is a lieutenant colonel officer born of a magician. Seeing the house full of gold and silver, his eyes immediately turned green, and he was too poor to eat, and he trembled on the spot. The result was an immediate outrage. As you can guess, this lieutenant colonel is estimated to be the kind of typical non-combustible garbage that does the least and eats the most, a typical team cumbersome and parasitic tumor. At the meeting, he probably also relented because Miss Miss, the president of the student union. Otherwise, he is also a lieutenant colonel magician, and he should be the highest status in the team, but why did the leader of the team end up being Sehiru? But don't say it, because people are members of the headquarters and are still beautiful girls.
In such a special and disorderly period without the control of the superior authority, the authority of the leader cannot be obtained by relying on the name, origin or delegation of the superior department, but can only rely on the leader's own ability to win the trust of ordinary people.
"Oh, that's a sad story, but it's not new at all." Lu Xi shrugged helplessly: "At this critical juncture, if it is for a treasure that can increase strength, it is reasonable to say something, but it will be red-eyed because of the most tacky gold and silver, I can only say that the style of that lieutenant colonel is even more vulgar than I imagined." Uh, that guy can't be a second-generation nouveau riche, right? Palashile? I really haven't heard of it. ”
The lieutenant colonel didn't answer, but he didn't deny it, just lowered his gaze a little, and seemed to show a little helplessness.
As an active indignant youth and a well-known reservist, Lu Xi has always been unafraid to estimate the character of the nobles with the greatest malice. Of course, just like eating human flesh and drinking human blood, eating it raw directly is called cannibalism, wearing a tuxedo, behaving politely, talking nobly, biting other people's necks, and making drinking blood look like flirting, then it becomes an elegant nobleman under the moon, and can deceive a large group of brain-dead Lori with peach blossoms in her eyes. Although in essence, there is not much difference between the two. In the same way, they are all the so-called superior people who press on the heads of the working people to make a prestige and benefit the country, the people, the society, and civilization, and the children of the aristocratic lords who have accumulated for a long time will naturally not be as ugly as the nouveau riche who have risen up in one or two generations. Although the former is in fact the root of all evil that really eats meat, most of the hatred is often pulled away by the latter who gnaws bones.
There is no way, the pyramid structure of all evils exists in any class. If you want to eat the meat and bones thrown by the owner, you must at least have the consciousness of acting as a biting dog for the owner and carrying the black pot.
Lu Xi believes that if it is really the child of Wilambart or Dandy Lane, who was born from the super gate valve, even if he looks at the mountains of gold and silver coins, he will never really do something that is so brainless that he completely isolates himself from all the team members. Anyway, the children of the federal gate valve that Lu Xi has seen so far, whether it is Seaweed Daddy or Uncle Seaweed, or the squinting eyes that have had a one-sided relationship, regardless of whether the stomach is full of male thieves and female prostitutes, at least the surface kung fu is very good. Either majestic, kind, or smiling, as shallow as a seaweed head is actually quite strange. However, even if it's the strange seaweed head, it won't be so brain-dead that it will mess up when it sees a little gold.
There are only those freshly baked nouveau riche children - this kind of children have also grown up with golden keys in their mouths, but they lack the thick black school teaching accumulated by the noble gate valve for many years, and it is difficult to cultivate that kind of sanctimonious aura.
"I've locked the Colonel and several of his close friends together for the time being. If you want to meet him, I can lead the way now. ”
"Well, I do want to see this kind of nouveau riche who can't figure out the situation, and it's perfect for a slap in the face, even the observers of the universe outside the box love to watch this kind of plot. Of course, if that guy has a little acquaintance, if he is still shaking in front of me, I have a very good reason to regard him as a burden...... Ah no, kill him on the spot as an unstable factor that destroys the unity of the team. Lu Xi smiled and said something very dangerous, but his tone obviously didn't seem like a joke.
Of course, even if he said such dangerous words without changing his face, Lieutenant Colonel Basil did not show much consternation, but only twitched his brows slightly.
"But not yet. The reason why I am waiting for you to come back is because there is something very important that I must discuss with you. So, please invite all of your own leaders from the team, as well as Sehirus, to come. (To be continued......)
