Chapter 242 The Arrival of the Beautiful Witch, A Night of Lingering Souls (10K, Asking for Subscriptions)_5
Just like now, the two of us are out eating, I can choose to spin the lazy susan myself after the dishes are served, or I can choose to have someone else join us for the meal.
This way, when I want to eat a dish, someone will take the initiative to spin the lazy susan for me, and stop it proactively, depending on how I want to choose."
After speaking, he looked at Kael with great seriousness and said, "For the vast majority of people, often there is no power of choice, only the destiny of being chosen."
At that time, Kael, who had not yet joined any guild, belonged to the batch of solo players with strong abilities.
Cai Ketongshen was then called the boss by him, and was genuinely a boss in the literal sense, willing to pay to be the fool and wealthy employer.
Just from the ruins where the Lion Heart Battle Group and the Conterminous Legion engaged in battle during the late stage of the 2.0 game version, they unearthed a banner that once belonged to the Lion Heart Battle Group.
This banner with special effects doesn't provide much personal bonus; its true purpose is to significantly enhance friendly members with positive buffs during group wars.
The initial purpose of [Cai Ketongshen] was merely to obtain this banner.
Now, [Cai Ketongshen] states, "I want the banner. I want the people too!"
"Brother, I see you are a talented person, [Strange Power Chaos God] is still missing a Vice President, do you want the power that can allow you to be more willful?"
"I placed that power in [Strange Power Chaos God], if you want it, come and take it!"
Kael can be sure that Cai Ketongshen must have said similar words to many people, but at least one point has received Kael's approval.
"I also want to obtain willful power.
I also know all too well what such an option means for me in times of chaos to ensure that both I and those I care about can [survive], even [live better].
That's why I... need to take it step by step, step by step, step by step to reach my current position, possessing such power just so that when facing choices...
I can have the power to flip the table!"
"Sister Franca, I might do something a little willful next," Kael conveyed with telepathy to Flandre.
"Hmm?"
Before Franca could ask what Kael wanted to do, Kael, leading a group to the underground workshop of the Magic Workshop, suddenly stopped, turned around, and with a light smile, asked:
"We've already arrived here, actually there are many things that one shouldn't ask, but there are some things that must be said; to avoid unnecessary conflict between us later, I'll ask this one question first..."
Kael's gaze turned to the son of Marquis Gransham, seriously saying, "Sir, what is your relation with the Marquis Gransham?"
The silver-guard swordsman frowned and then realized there was a family crest on his shoulder garment, instantly understanding, nodding and saying:
"Imre Gransham, the Marquis Gransham you speak of is my father."
Kael was somewhat surprised for a moment, this young man did not hesitate at all, and even when replying, he showed no guilty thoughts.
Each of his micro expressions seemed to convey two messages to Kael, one being "confusion," the other "bewilderment."
He seemed not very knowledgeable about the friction between himself and the Marquis Gransham.
But this doesn't stop Kael from continuing his previous judgment on this young man named Imre:
"I have some enmity with your father, in other words, I have a bias against the Gransham Family.
The inner resources of my Magic Workshop are numerous and secretive, so I would appreciate it if you could stay outside for now; you cannot enter the underground workshop."
"Is it convenient for you to speak about what conflict arose with my father?" Imre showed a curious expression: "If it doesn't involve some irreconcilable contradictions, maybe I can help mediate."
Kael sighed and said: "You are carefree, it has a connection with the Lion Heart guild, it's difficult to explain."
"Then it should be political disagreements, an unavoidable matter, some viewpoints of my father I don't quite endorse either."
Imre shrugged, saying with an indifferent look: "Then I'll stay out, such matters require considering the emotions of both sides."
"It's good you understand." Unexpectedly opening the game this way, who would've thought another "Rebellion Sword" would appear, originally prepared for conflict, now seems unnecessary, it rather saves me trouble.
Kael quietly withdrew the full battle hand he was going to release, turning to look at the other silver guard members.
The lead Silver Guard Commander nodded and said: "In that case, we'll go down and take a look."
...
Soon, in the underground workshop,
The eyes of the Silver Guard members lit up, very fervently looking at the Gluttonous Slime floating in mid-air.
"Is this... Dragon Scales?"
Kael nodded, he could understand the excitement of the Silver Guard, the whole body of a Dragon is a treasure, to say boldly, nearly one-third or close to half of the innovations in materials science within the Mage Academia.
However, many of these are applied in the manufacture of various weapons, armor, alchemy equipment, and magical equipment.
