Time quickly reached the evening, and as expected, the Stars Fort, which was originally bleak, became strangely lively at this moment.
Guys from all walks of life came on stage, no matter what they thought in their hearts, but at the opening ceremony of the trade fair held by the three mentors, everyone was smiling.
Some guys who are good at acting will also very hypocritically praise the wisdom, courage and tactics of the three mentors, and at the same time viciously belittle the dead warlock as a scoundrel who should have been eradicated long ago.
Although not long ago, they were still using the same words to praise the dark wisdom of Lord Warlock, which is worthy of awe.
Oh, it's not shameful to play around with the wind.
"Hey sweetie, look what I found?"
Harry and Quinn walked into the banquet hall on the third floor of Fort of Stars hand in hand, and immediately locked onto Mason who was talking to Agent Natasha, the captain of the Holy Shield team, in the crowd as if instinctively.
The two walked quickly and showed Mason the special collar in their hands.
The chief took a look at it in his hand, then smiled and said:
"Cerberus' **** collar, it's not bad, it's just right for Luther and Luke, you take it first, and I'll make another one for you when we go back.
Always treat the two puppies equally. "
"Tch, I feel there is something in your words."
Harry rolled her eyes, but in the next second, she leaned sweetly on Mason's shoulder and expressed her fiery love for the little sweetheart with a passionate kiss.
She never cared about the eyes of people around her.
But Quinn was more reserved, and just took Mason's hand.
However, the next moment, the two cuties suddenly looked at each other, their nostrils moved almost at the same time, and Harry squinted his eyes and leaned on Mason's ear and said:
"Who did you meet just now? Honey, why do you have this weird gooseberry smell?"
"Uh, talked to the hunter and helped her change her robe for tonight."
Mason reported his itinerary honestly, and kissed her before Harry continued to ask questions. Such an active caress immediately made Harry forget the unhappy things, and excitedly took Mason to find his companions up.
But Quinn is not so easy to deal with.
She kept staring at Mason, making the chief captain a little scared, for fear that the clown girl would stab him in the next moment.
"Didn't you say you're going to Garden World for a trip?"
Mason held the two cute slender waists and said:
"After the fair is over, let's spare half a day to go shopping?"
"Hey, it's getting suspicious."
Harry lay in Mason's arms, rolled his eyes and said:
"You must have done something bad, this is the most typical compensation mentality, trying to make up for your guilt towards your girlfriend, but I don't hate it.
Then shall I go find my destination?
V said that he and Panan have traveled many garden worlds, so I'm going to consult him. "
After speaking, Harley happily led the dog to find friends like a jumping bunny, but Quinn, who was wearing a black and red dress, stayed beside Mason.
After Harry left, she whispered in Mason's ear:
"What step have you and Ciri achieved? Didn't you betray us?"
"Uh, don't talk nonsense."
Mason wants to explain.
But he gave up when he saw Quinn’s sly blinking eyes, and he sighed and said:
"It's just an ambiguous stage, there is no next step in real action, and I don't plan to have any in the near future. You know, we are all very rational people."
"I believe you are a sensible person, but I don't have much confidence in Lord Hunter. She has obviously been played and applauded by you. You really have the potential to become a big villain, sweetheart."
Quinn grinned and said:
"But you are an eighteen-year-old young man. Teenagers at this age will be excited when they see a peacock unfolding. You are already considered a good category.
Look, honey, I'm not like Halle, I'm very open about these things, and I'm an unmarriageist, I don't care who else is around you.
But Harry will never let you go so easily.
If you make her sad, I promise you will make you sad too.
besides!
Since I already know your secret, I'd be really sorry for myself if I didn't use it. "
She stood up, licking her lips under Mason's frightened gaze.
Pulled him up and walked to the bathroom in the banquet hall. The captain already knew what he would encounter, but when he wanted to resist, he heard Quinn say to him:
"You don't want me to tell Harley about this, do you? Mr. Mae Sen."
The elongated tone caused all of Mason's resistance to collapse in an instant.
At this moment, he suddenly understood without a teacher why the entanglement between the master, Catwoman and Thalia has lasted so long. Let’s be honest, the love triangle has reached this level not only because the master is amazingly charming.
Having a girlfriend who likes to watch fun and can't help herself always feels that she is not good enough for Bruce Wayne and chooses to run away from marriage for fear of losing herself is also definitely one of the important reasons.
Alas, it seems that this is the fate of the Bat-family.
Ten minutes later, when Harry happily ran back with a Garden World travel brochure, Mason and Quinn had already returned to their original seats as if nothing had happened.
"Ding"
With a soft sound, the opening ceremony of tonight's trade fair officially began.
In the past, there was no such link, but considering that the Stars Club has just changed a great mentor, the scene where the leader meets with everyone is naturally a necessary process.
The entire banquet hall was full of seats. Except for the twenty-four seats in the front row reserved for A-level members, where a few team representatives sat sparsely, the captains and core members of other B-level teams that had escaped the catastrophe were already here. Some potential C-rank captains were also invited to sit in the back row to participate in this ceremony.
And when the three mentors stepped onto the podium in front, the whole venue suddenly burst into warm applause.
Sitting in the front row, Mason crossed his legs very relaxedly, chatting happily with the old Captain Morgan next to him, and admiring the unique style of Ciri's appearance tonight.
The black robe that was modified to a very slim fit outlined her body like an evening dress.
Although he was still wearing a mask, the loose silver hair and this obvious figure declared that the always mysterious hunter finally revealed his gender.
Although this is not a secret among the middle and high-level members, it is also a bit of a revelation for the lower-level members who are usually difficult to get in touch with the senior mentor level.
Well, our leader is a lady with a super body!
This truth can obviously boost the morale of the organization effectively.
"Hey, the clothes of these two bosses have obviously been tidied up today."
Aunt Rogge, who was present as the vice-captain next to old Morgan, looked in surprise at the hunter and swordsman's clothes, which were obviously different from the formal robes of stars. She turned her head to look at Mason next to her, and asked in a low voice. :
"You did it?"
"Well, my craft is not bad, right?"
Mason asked with the pride and pride of a craftsman, and the old aunt nodded.
She quite approves of Mason's taste, but as an old aunt, she is of course concerned with gossip at a deeper level.
"It's okay for Mr. Hunter, you and her are not close for a day or two, but Your Excellency Swordsman."
Rogge nodded his head to express some unseemly meanings, and asked in a low voice:
"Do you still like this kind?"
"Where did you go? She and I are compatriots and fellow villagers."
Mason said helplessly:
"And just change the clothes, don't think about it."
"We don't want to think about it."
On the other side of Mason, Miss Anna, the captain of the A-level team, whispered:
Is it true or not? "
"I refuse to answer this question."
Mason stopped talking with a straight face, deeply feeling that his friends are so gossipy, hey, the fourth shock is coming, can you spend more time on the business?
Everyone’s life is almost gone, so why are you still in the mood to care about other people’s private lives?
This organization is really hopeless.jpg
Mason thought so.
He didn't care that the wizard master on the stage was expressing his feelings and speeches to the members for being able to assume the highest position, anyway, they were all old tunes.
The real management strategy can't be put on this kind of meeting and it is said that he is more concerned about the structural adjustment of the A-level members.
The hunters have communicated in advance that they will continue the strategy of the warlocks and expand the number of members from twelve to twenty-four, so as to cope with the increasingly severe situation and make a better distribution of power.
A-level personnel who did not hold substantive management positions in the past will also be given different functions and directly participate in the system management of the Stars Club.
In other words, the three mentors have delegated the power in their hands.
The other B and the members in the venue also more or less heard the wind, and they listened intently to the description of the wizard master, hoping to catch some clues from it.
Yet Mason scoffed.
In his eyes, the Constellation Society is a rotten tree that is about to be toppled. It is a bit too ridiculous to discuss the distribution of rights in this afterglow moment.
"The seats of the A-level members who survived this battle will continue to be reserved, and several outstanding teams will be selected from the B-level teams to participate in the twenty-four-member council.
Just what I know now includes Holy Shield, Punishment, and Defenders. These three teams are all closely related to you, and they are already considered as non-staff members of the K team. "
Old Captain Morgan whispered to Mason:
"In addition, all the A-level members who can survive are related to you, and you have hunters and swordsmen as absolute allies, and you seem to have a very good personal relationship with the wizard.
Based on this calculation, even after the expansion of the A-level members, this council will still be your voice, Mason, I think you are already the true 'Lord of the Constellation'. "
"Don't dare to talk nonsense, Brother Morgan."
Mason waved his hands and said very modestly:
"Everyone is a loyal hound serving the great cause of Lord Destiny, how can there be a class between dogs? We are not neon people or people who steal the country, right?
It's very boring here, so I'll go out for a walk.
If you are going to be on stage later, remember to cover it up for me. "
After finishing speaking, Mason quietly left a water body with an expressionless face, and his body left the banquet hall amidst the flickering water body.
This scene was seen by the three mentors on stage, but no one pursued Mason's overstepping behavior.
Old Morgan's emotion is right. In the current situation, in the absence of Lao Mo, Mason really has the final say on the huge group of stars.
As for the vice-captain.
Squad K has never actually had a candidate for a vice-captain in the true sense, but speaking in public is naturally an outstanding image, and the imposing and imposing Catwoman-sama does her part.
She is the image ambassador and diplomat appointed by Mason for the whole process of the trade fair, responsible for all external liaison and contact matters. In the current scene, Halle can't go up and talk nonsense, right?
Although the image of Harley is also very cute.
"call"
In the bustling hawker street outside the Castle of Stars, Mason lit a cigarette and exhaled a puff of smoke ring looking at the bright starry sky above his head.
Like a social animal who came out to smoke after work, he stood by the trash can and complained in a low voice:
"At the beginning, I agreed with the master to join the Stars Club as an undercover agent, but now it's good, I haven't had time to close the net, and I'm a **** undercover agent behind the scenes.
The thing is, I don't want to take on this mess."
"Dude, is there a fire?"
A pleasant voice sounded behind Mason, and there was a scent of fragrance, but Mason didn't care.
It is quite normal for smokers to borrow a fire from each other.
He casually took out his newly-made retro lighter in new colors and handed it over to light a cigarette for the sister, but the latter jumped out in shock.
Amid a head of black hair fluttering around, the older sister, who was wearing a white sports vest and black bib shorts, with her lower body wrapped in black silk, wore long gloves and combat gloves on her arms, shouted:
"Hey! Don't take out such a dangerous thing and use it casually! Bastard, is that the ultimate eraser in your hand? Are you not afraid of destroying the entire city at once?"
"This is just a replica, and its power is not as great as you think. Even if the power is activated, at most it will blow up the castle, right?"
Mason just wanted to explain, when he saw the appearance of the big sister borrowing the fire and her iconic attire in the rising smoke, he blinked and said to the nervous pretty sister in front of him:
"Jerusalem Uh, I mean, Miss Tifa, don't be nervous, I'm your loyal fan, I've heard every song of yours."
"Huh~"
Miss Tifa immediately showed a disgusted expression when she heard the word "fan". She turned the lady's cigarette in her hand, waved to Mason and said:
"Don't say that, I feel sick when I hear this word now, don't think I don't know what you self-proclaimed 'fans' are thinking.
I don’t care what kind of image I am in your hearts, and you are fantasizing about doing weird things. I can’t control people’s hearts, but please!
Please, don't do weird things in front of me, okay?
My **** are not for sale!
I'm not interested in going out to dinner with you, let alone give you my communication method. "
"My girlfriend is as beautiful as you, and they can satisfy all my fantasies and needs, so don't worry."
Mason kindly handed over the lighter made in imitation of the Ultimate Eraser.
Amid the rising blue flames, Miss Tifa looked at him with a "scumbag" look, probably because of the "girlfriends" Mason just mentioned.
"Hey! Wait, I seem to have seen you."
When this pure-looking but socially behaving Jerusalem lady exhaled a mouthful of mint-flavored smoke, she suddenly came to her senses and leaned over to carefully examine Mason's eyes.
After a moment, she exclaimed:
"You are Mason Cooper! Captain of the Doom Squad, the man who slew the warlocks, the savior of the world and the leader of the rebels, my God! I see you in real life.
Claude and I heard about you before when we aided the Rebels in the B-level world. Few people know the great achievements you have made in other worlds.
But for the rebels, your victory in the previous war has greatly inspired many people.
I'm your big fan! "
She happily threw away the lady's cigarette she had just lit, and excitedly held Mason's hand. Mason couldn't get over the excited expression in the flying black hair.
Just thinking about how to respond to the fans' enthusiastic reaction, I heard Miss Tifa take the initiative to say:
"Can I invite you to dinner? Master Mason, if it's not convenient for you, can you give me your phone number? I heard that you are the best craftsman in the Stars Club. My boyfriend is worried about the damaged weapon recently. It can't be repaired, can you go to our team's station to help take a look?
I'll feed you personally? "
"Um?"
Mason captured a very important message. He looked at the excited Miss Jerusalem in front of him and asked:
"Where is your team stationed? Have you joined the Stars Club? Aren't you ronin?"
"Oh, I accidentally slipped my tongue."
Miss Jerusalem sighed, and said helplessly to Mason:
"It was secretly requested by the wizard. Not only us, but also many ronin who travel all over the world have gathered, and under his arrangement, they have changed their appearance and joined the group of stars.
He tells us that the time of change is coming, and that we should prepare in the dark.
He also said."
Miss Tifa glanced at Mason, leaned over and whispered to him:
"The wizard also said that you will be our most noteworthy potential ally, and what you do next will directly determine the future of countless lives on countless planes.
We are ready to help you! Of course, you must never tell anyone. "
