AWB Chapter 259 Talk
Chapter 259 Talk
"The common people are really, really happy today, hehe!"
After watching the battle live for most of the day, Mo Ming finally sat on Rhys's back, humming a little tune all the way back to the shelter.
Xiao Jin broke through to the Radiant Orange level and evolved into the Holy Radiant Thunder Roc, wielding the power of wind and thunder, soaring above the nine heavens.
Now that he has found a Titan Serpent corpse of the Radiant Orange level for free, how could Mo Ming not be excited?
"Shang Shang, everyone's out for a big meal!"
The Titanoboa's carcass, several tens of meters long, was slammed heavily to the ground by Rhysla, raising a cloud of dust.
A moment later, the two brothers, Xiong Da and Xiong Er, arrived first. When they saw that it was a giant python of the Radiant Orange level, their eyes lit up and they rushed over to start feasting.
Immediately afterwards, Cui Cui, Hua Hua, and others also dragged their huge bodies over and joined in to enjoy this precious meal.
Shangshang doesn't need to eat meat, Mengling doesn't like to eat meat, Xiaojin picked out the most precious snake gall and no one knows where it went to digest it, Xiaobai is a vegetarian, and the Golden Horned Longhorn Beetle is still in seclusion.
Only a few people remained, so there were plenty of meat and few wolves, which was incredibly satisfying.
On the other side, the grand competition had just ended, and the dust had not yet completely settled. A group of exhausted but enthusiastic participants were following behind Manmeng and Shitou, preparing to return to their dormitory to rest.
However, when their gaze fell upon the inexplicable scene of the pets eating not far away, one after another their expressions froze in shock.
Some people stared wide-eyed, their mouths slightly agape, as if they had witnessed an incredible spectacle.
Their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and some were even stunned, their weapons slipping from their hands and falling to the ground, making the surrounding silence even more pronounced.
A few burly men touched their foreheads and rubbed their eyes, seemingly wondering if they were hallucinating from exhaustion during the competition.
"My God, is this really the leader's pet?!"
A petite girl stood by the gate, her eyes fixed on the giant beast that looked like a small mountain, her voice trembling with fear.
"My God! So many... ferocious beasts?"
"Our leader is no ordinary person!"
"That rhinoceros is so cool!"
Can we tame our own pets?
……
The scene of the pets eating caused a huge stir among the newly arrived crowd.
However, Tark and Kane were already used to it.
Lia glanced at the shocked crowd, chuckled, and then walked towards the Bronze Hall with the tournament records in her hand.
Boom boom boom!
"Chief, I've come to report the results of the competition."
Although the bronze door was open, Lia still politely knocked first.
Liya has always been adept at striking a balance. She has never become arrogant or disrespectful because of Mo Ming's high regard for her.
"Come in, Leah!"
"Chief, these are the results of this competition and a summary of everyone's abilities. Please take a look."
Li respectfully handed the notebook to Mo Ming, a glimmer of hope flashing in his eyes.
"You've worked hard! Please sit down, let me take a look first!"
Taking the notebook, Mo Ming gestured for Liya to sit down and began to carefully flip through it page by page.
Lia moved a chair from the table and sat quietly by the bronze doorway, glancing occasionally at Mo Ming, who was working diligently.
There were 28 participants in the grand competition, including 12 people at the Crimson Purple level: Lia, Manmon, Tark, Kane, Stone, Mosen, Eileen, Domi, Lockes, Kirahair, Yi Xinghe, and Lala.
The remaining 16 people are all at the Deep Blue level: Tam, Wang Tinghan, Zhang Yuanshan, Wang Qian, Yun Zhongxin, Cao Sinian, Zhang Hualing, Wei Mi, Sun Erniang, Xi Wuxu, Qin Tai, Chu Guyan, Sima Zhuxin, Luo Fei, Wu Suxin, and Wu An.
Holy crap! Tam...m?
Can it be such a coincidence? I just got a set of Toad Armor that allows me to burrow underground, and now Tahm Kench is here?
And Eileen…Lox…Sun Erniang…Why do all these names sound so familiar!
A dozen minutes later, Mo Ming looked up from the notebook, as if he understood everything.
He paused, turned to look at Lia, and said softly, "Lia, if we were to nominate seven people to be squad captains, which seven people do you think would be most suitable?"
Liya was taken aback, clearly not expecting Mo Ming to ask such a question.
"Chief, I..."
"Hehe, don't be nervous. I've already made up my mind about who to choose. I just want to hear your opinion."
Noticing Liya's restraint, Mo Ming chuckled and comforted her.
"I think... Yi Xinghe, Man Meng, Eileen, Xi Wuxu, Locke, Mo Sen, and... me!"
"Hahaha, be confident! You're a must-have, and... you're in first place, you're the captain of the First Division!"
"Chief, you didn't see what happened. Actually, that Yi Xinghe's strength is no less than mine. And... and his surname is Yi!"
Lia's feelings were somewhat complicated. When Mo Ming asked her to be the captain of the first squad, she was very excited, but she was also afraid that her humble origins would make her inferior to others, such as the Barbarian King's descendant, the Barbarian Mongols, or... that guy surnamed Yi!
“Yes! His surname is Yi. There is only one clan with the surname Yi on Moro Star…” Mo Ming looked at Liya earnestly, his tone becoming slower and slower.
"Chief, you... you knew all along?"
"Haha, I also know some of the secrets of your Moro Star."
"He's the successor to the Sword Saint, so naturally I'll entrust him with important responsibilities. But don't even mention him, even if there were other Radiant Orange-level powerhouses, this captaincy of the First Squad is yours!"
Lia's heart skipped a beat. Why was the leader being so nice to her? Could it be that the leader wanted to... take advantage of her?
Upon thinking of this, Liya's face immediately turned red with embarrassment.
No, no, the leader isn't that kind of person.
Even if it is... that's still... not...
Mo Ming was naturally unaware of her ulterior motives. The reason he valued Liya so much was firstly because he admired her abilities.
Born into poverty and without any powerful connections, she honed her skills solely through her own efforts, which can be attributed to either exceptional talent or unwavering willpower.
Moreover, after being imprisoned, he single-handedly instigated a riot at Fox Camp, causing Fox Camp's command system to collapse and all prisoners to escape.
She was later revered as Empress Lia by the escapees, isn't that a double affirmation of her ability and charm?
Secondly, Mo Ming also trusted her character and temperament completely.
This can be seen from their daily interactions and the completion of the tasks assigned to her by Mo Ming.
Furthermore, with the Black Gold Guard Corps about to be formed, Mo Ming couldn't find anyone else who was superior to Liya in both ability and trustworthiness.
Therefore, she is the only one who can be the captain of this squad.
Of course, Liya was unaware of Mo Ming's considerations, otherwise she wouldn't have thought of such things!
"Chief...Chief, are you...are you going to...take advantage of me?"
Lia's voice grew softer and softer as she spoke, until she finally buried her head in her chest.
Although the sound was soft, Mo Ming heard it very clearly. In that instant, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry!
This……
