Chapter 30

Today's headquarters of the Eternal God's Association is extremely lively, and the solemn sound of musical instruments echoed in the sky, startling the birds among the trees.This is a simple ceremony for Moore to succeed as bishop, and this is the first happy event after the defeat of the Oss Empire.

Zhuo Jun stood among the crowd, looking at Moore with a solemn face under the statue of Eternal God.

Moore lowered his head, and Aubrey took off the ribbon representing the bishop from the tray in the waiter's hand, and put it on Moore's neck with a solemn expression.

In the past, it would be very difficult to see other bishops at the succession ceremony of the new bishop, because they usually have to perform their own duties, and the Eternal Council of God, which does not pay much attention to red tape, does not require them to be present.But it is different now, the war has just ended, and the bishops gathered in the Rhodes Kingdom's Imperial City have not yet returned, so Moore's succession ceremony may be the most spectacular scene in history.

However, although there were many people, the scene was extremely quiet, and there was almost no movement except for the sound of musical instruments.Zhuo Jun has been staring at Moore's figure, he found that Moore is naturally suitable for this job, after all, his face is too tempting for believers.Seeing Moore saluting and reciting teachings sternly, such a noble and solemn scene made Zhuo Jun think of some not-so-popular things.

It wasn't until the ceremony was over that the bishops gathered around and talked with Moore as usual.Many of them are close friends of Matthew, and they are deeply moved to see Moore inheriting the mantle of the teacher, so they just stand under the statue and gossip.

Zhuo Jun was a little impatient, the war was finally put aside, and it was his turn to deepen the relationship with Moore, these old masters really have no eyesight.

But when Zhuo Jun was bored, he really thought of a seemingly important thing.Zhuo Jun looked around, found no one was paying attention to him, and sneaked out.

Considering that he has lived in the Eternal God Society for so long, Zhuo Jun is already as familiar with this place as his own garden. Walking around the path beside the lawn, he ran to a secluded corner behind the pond.

"Bai Xiao, Bai Xiao!" Zhuo Jun shouted in a low voice while looking around like a mouse.

After shouting for a long time, it was as if the mask did not exist abnormally, and there was no movement around except for the sound of wind and birdsong.Zhuo Jun was upset, he couldn't believe that this pervert didn't peep at him anymore, walked delicately to the edge of the pond, and took off the interspatial ring on his hand: "I'll call you one last time, come out quickly, or I'll take this The things were thrown away. Did you hear me, I stopped playing!"

Just when Zhuo Jun was impatient and wanted to throw away the ring, a breeze blew by, and finally the tall masked man was willing to appear beside him, it was Bai Xiao.

Bai Xiao let out a burst of laughter: "What's wrong with my player, what is this for?"

"Don't talk nonsense," Zhuo Jun thought of Buff Meifu when he saw the mask, and he was naturally annoyed, "Well, I won't play your game anymore, I decided to stay here, here."

After finishing speaking, Zhuo Jun handed the ring to Bai Xiao.

"Oh? This is the first time I've seen a player who doesn't want to go back." Even though he said that, Bai Xiao's tone was not surprising, as if he knew Zhuo Jun would make such a decision.

Seeing that Bai Xiao didn't intend to take the ring away, Zhuo Jun became anxious: "What do you mean? You don't want me to complete the task and go home, do you? Which unit do you belong to? I must complain to you!"

Bai Xiao stretched out his index finger, and a bird landed on his finger as if he had been bewitched by something. Bai Xiao smiled and said, "Of course you have the freedom to choose. Games with multiple endings are fun, but... I managed to Isn't it a bit shameless to create a world where you want to stay without doing anything?"

Zhuo Jun simply laughed, who of them is shameless?Didn't Bai Xiaochou shamelessly bring him here?Zhuo Jun laughed angrily: "Are you crazy? Just treat me as a failure of the mission and throw me here?"

Bai Xiao shook his finger, and the little bird was startled away: "But now it seems that staying is not a punishment for your failure, but a reward for your success. Let's go on with the mission. When you complete all the missions, I will let you stay."

Zhuo Jun rolled his eyes and said, "All right."

Regardless, the process of doing the task is here anyway, if he doesn't do it, he'll be fine.Bai Xiao seemed to see through his thoughts, smiled and said, "Don't procrastinate on purpose. If I find out that you are deliberately not doing the task, be careful to wake up one day and find that you have returned home."

After leaving this threatening sentence, Bai Xiao disappeared.Zhuo Jun wanted to yell at him, this Bai Xiao was too worthless, if he had known that he would not be looking for him, he would have done nothing honestly!But now there is no other way, I still have to continue to make money.

It's ridiculous to say that he had to work hard to do the task before, because he had to go back.Now he still has to work hard to do the task, but in order to stay.Zhuo Jun wanted to ask Bai Xiao from the bottom of his heart, did he enjoy watching others work so happily?

Returning to the temple with a sad face, Zhuo Jun thought of a more painful question.Since he wanted to continue the mission, he still had to earn money, so what about the iron ore in his bad hands?Oss VI is obviously not needed anymore, and now that Oss's borders are closed, future bounty missions will be even more difficult to do.

However, after seeing the Quentin soldiers who were ready to go back to the country outside the temple, Zhuo Jun smiled and ran to the second master's side in two or three steps.The Austrians don't want it, they can sell it to Quentin. Quentin failed in the war and didn't plunder the spoils. He should be happy to replenish a wave of iron ore, right?

Zhuo Jun waved his hand and ran towards the second master from a distance, but was caught by a strong arm on the way, it was Misha.

"Misha, wait a moment, I have something urgent to tell the second master!" Zhuo Jun didn't have time to talk to her.

Unexpectedly, Misha held him with a serious face and did not let go: "Boss, I also have something urgent to tell you, mine must be more urgent than yours."

Zhuo Jun could only stop and look at Misha: "Okay, hurry up."

Misha fell silent, and it took a long time before she summoned up the courage to say, "Boss, I want...to leave the group."

Leave the group?Zhuo Jun was stunned. Why did Misha quit the group? Is it because she hates the poor treatment?Zhuo Jun asked suspiciously: "Leaving the group, then what are you going to do?"

Misha lowered her head in embarrassment: "It's like this, the second master promised me to join the army in Quentin, and I'm also the guard of the palace, I want to..."

Zhuo Jun understood that Misha saved the second master's life, and it was probably because the second master couldn't save his face that he agreed to her request. Misha's behavior is called ignorance.Although Misha lost a light bulb after leaving, after all, after getting along for so long, Misha has been bravely rushing to the front. Zhuo Jun's affection for her is much stronger than those two cowards. I'm really reluctant.

Zhuo Jun smiled wryly: "Do you want to understand?"

Misha looked at Zhuo Jun cautiously, and nodded slightly after seeing that her boss was not angry: "I figured it out, I am willing to stay with Second Master to protect him."

Zhuo Jun thought for a while, but still planned to persuade her: "Misha, it's not that if you stay with Second Master, Second Master will have feelings for you, you know that, right?"

"I know," Misha nodded, "I don't want to think about those daydreaming things, I just want to see the second master every day."

In this case, Zhuo Jun has nothing to say.

"I have a condition if I want to quit the group," Zhuo Jun changed the subject, "If you become a bodyguard, you must have a salary, keep it for me. I will get it once a year, and if I dare to lose a penny, I will let the second master fire you."

Misha opened her mouth, and the little sadness of parting disappeared immediately: "Boss, you are so shameless!"

Zhuo Jun disapproved: "Don't say that, even if you don't have money for this job, you will definitely enjoy it. Besides, the palace guards eat and drink well every day, and you don't need money. Why don't you leave it to poor people like me who are short of money?" .”

Misha's expression was dull: "Okay..."

Zhuo Jun smiled, and suddenly his expression became serious. He patted the iron armor on Misha's shoulder and said, "I have been with me for so long, and I have nothing to give you as parting. Just give you a blessing, wish you a speedy day Able to climb onto Second Master’s dragon bed."

"What are you talking about!" Misha was shy, "But... let me give you a good word, Boss!" Having been with Zhuo Jun for so long, the shamelessness has long since disappeared.

Zhuo Jun waved his hand and left: "I'm going to talk to the second master about a business, you go and pack your things. Remember, you will always have a place in the team of monster hunters and gold coin hunters."

Misha looked at Zhuo Jun's back, bit her lip and said nothing, really reluctant.

The second master had noticed these two people a long time ago, and his expression changed from serious to wretched, not knowing what they were talking about.Seeing Zhuo Jun with a smile on his face, the second master was a little dazed, as if he hadn't seen such a smile on Zhuo Jun's face for a long time.The meaning of this smile is probably... asking for money!

"Second Master, are you going to take Misha away?" Zhuo Jun didn't talk about business straight to the point, but confused the active and passive of this matter first, making it seem that Second Master wanted to poach him.

The simple second master didn't see the increasingly profiteering temperament in Zhuo Jun, he just smiled and said: "I heard that Misha intends to join the army, but she is good at skills, so I suggested that she stay in Quentin." Serving as a guard in the palace. Zhuo Jun, are you reluctant to part with Misha?"

Zhuo Jun pretended to sigh: "Yes, Second Master, you also know what kind of stuff our group is. Except for Moore, Misha can be of some use."

The second master looked at Zhuo Jun with a smile, without saying a word.

Zhuo Jun continued to pretend to be pitiful: "But this is Misha's idea, and I can only respect it. I just hope that the second master can help our hapless hunter group more in the future."

The second master tentatively asked: "Then Zhuojun, are you interested in coming to my side as a guard?"

Zhuo Jun raised his eyebrows: "How much is the monthly payment?"

The second master rubbed his forehead with a smile, he knew Zhuo Jun was this kind of guy: "Two thousand gold coins per month."

Zhuo Jun shook his head like a rattle drum, palace guard is indeed a good job, but the salary is really too little for him.Although the bounty hunter spends his days living and sleeping in the open, the money comes quickly.

The second master subconsciously said something that even surprised him: "Then how much money can I give you to stay with me?"

The second master regretted it after he finished speaking, just like the last time he gave Zhuo Jun a royal ring out of nowhere, he was indeed a bit abrupt.But Zhuo Jun didn't think much about it, and just took this sentence as a salary discussion: "How about 1000 million gold coins a month?"

The second master smiled wryly: "Leader Zhuo Jun, please go back."

Zhuo Jun induced the words of the second master: "It seems that the second master can't provide jobs for all of us. If we need you in the future, you must help us."

The simple second master nodded: "Of course."

Zhuo Jun was waiting for this sentence, and smiled slightly: "That's just right, I want to discuss a business with you right now, you will definitely give me a good price, right?"

Looking at Zhuo Jun's excited smiling face, Er Ye felt like falling into a trap.

Zhuo Jun smiled and said: "I hoarded some iron ore before, and planned to make a fortune during the national crisis of the Ossi Empire, but I didn't expect that there was such a thing as Buff Meifu. Second master, anyway, you go back Eighty percent must also expand the army, or I will sell it to you cheaply?"

The second master looked at Zhuo Jun, speechless.This kind of behavior really seemed to come from Zhuo Jun's hands. He didn't have any pressure to make money for the country. Oss VI should really thank Buff Meifu for saving him a lot of money.As for selling it to yourself cheaply, hehe, no matter how you look at it, it won’t be cheap, right?

"Our Quentin Empire has lost a lot in this battle. I really need iron ore." The second master didn't hide it, "I don't know how much you have, and what is the price?"

Zhuo Jun waved his hand casually: "A little bit, only [-] tons."

The second master almost choked on his saliva, [-] tons is just a little bit?This is almost a year's iron ore output of the Ossi Empire. Where does Zhuo Jun get the channel and money?This also proves once again the inaction of Oss VI. Iron ore can be used to make swords and cannons. Someone bought so much in one go. As the emperor, he didn't care about it. It is really unreasonable for Oss to perish. !If anyone in Quentin dared to purchase such a large amount of iron ore privately, there would definitely be a room in the prison that belonged to him.

The second master looked at Zhuo Jun incredulously, and said hesitantly, "The price..."

Zhuo Jun stretched out a finger and asked tentatively, "How about a thousand gold coins for a meal?"

Second Master's gaze suddenly dropped to freezing point. If someone else dared to speak so loudly in front of him, Second Master would definitely let his blood splatter on the spot.The market price of iron ore is only about [-] gold coins per ton, Zhuo Jun opened his mouth to ask for [-] gold coins, do you think he is a fool?

Zhuo Jun also realized that he was too greedy, but he can't be blamed, it's rare to discuss business with an emperor, so it's understandable to be more important, after all, there are not many people who are so rich.

The second master is too lazy to talk nonsense: "I don't particularly need iron ore, so let's buy it at the price of one hundred gold coins per ton, will you sell it?"

Zhuo Jun felt aggrieved: "I bought the goods at this price, you must let me earn some food money?"

The second master looked at Zhuo Jun's pursed mouth and smiled: "You admit that you bought it at this price? Then you dare to sell me a thousand gold coins. Is this going to drain our Quentin's treasury?"

Zhuo Jun was a little embarrassed, and he said, "Then make a price."

"One hundred and one gold coins per ton." The second master deliberately teased Zhuo Jun.

Zhuo Jun shouted: "Are you too picky?"

The second master was very pleased by his pitiful tone, and stopped teasing him: "Then two hundred gold coins, really can't be more. We have lost the battle, so it is considered as helping us, how about it?"

Zhuo Jun pretended to be very reluctant, and nodded after thinking for a long time.To be honest, this is already the price he predicted. Iron ore is not something that Quentin urgently needs, and it is not bad to double it.The second master also sighed in his heart, he is such a wise person, this time for Zhuo Jun, he made Quenting lose a lot.But it doesn't matter, strengthen the military, and sooner or later the losses from the Ossians will be recovered.

The business has been negotiated, Zhuo Jun promised to go back to Quentin Imperial City with the second master tomorrow, and he can also walk with Misha for a while.Zhuo Jun was in a good mood, and returned to the temple humming a little song.

The crowd had almost dispersed, and Moore stood alone under the statue looking up, looking a little lonely.Just as Zhuo Jun wanted to walk over, he was stopped again.

This time it was Linton with a tangled face.

Zhuo Jun raised his eyebrows and looked at him, beckoning him to fart quickly.Linton hesitated and said, "Boss, I heard that Misha is planning to quit the group, right? You see, one is quitting, and two are also..."

"Wait a minute," Zhuo Jun interrupted him, "Are you leaving too?"

Linton said seriously: "No, of course I will not abandon the team! I just feel that my strength is too weak. It happened that Dorothy invited me to study at the Wizards Guild in Quentin Emperor City. I want to come back when I become stronger. , look..."

Zhuo Jun understands, isn't this still ignorance?Zhuo Jun glared at Mike beside Linton angrily: "What about you, are you going?"

Mike was taken aback, thinking that Zhuo Jun was going to drive him away, he quickly said: "Boss, I am the most loyal to you, I will not leave, don't worry!"

loyalty?Hehe, when you saw the strange demons in the woods, you were the first one to run away, right?

Zhuo Jun sighed, let's go, even wanting to let Michael drag Bao Locke to practice, and leave him and Moore with a two-person world?

Zhuo Jun looked at Linton: "Okay, then you can go too. I told Misha that sooner or later there will be a place for her in the regiment, but you don't want it. Don't be full of unhealthy things every day, learn magic well do you know?"

Linton nodded again and again: "Of course! Misha is by the side of the second master. The name of the Shield of the Empire will become a reality sooner or later, and I will step up my cultivation as a great magician. Don't worry, boss, I will definitely become stronger !"

Zhuo Jun nodded in disbelief, and Linton dragged Mike, who was still unclear about the situation, away, not to disturb the communication time between the boss and Moore.

Hearing the approaching footsteps, Moore turned his head and looked at Zhuo Jun quietly.

"Misha and Linton are leaving?" Moore asked knowingly after hearing their conversation just now.

Zhuo Jun nodded, looking at Moore's bright eyes, feeling a little guilty for some reason: "Yeah, let's go, with you in the group, they don't have a chance to practice at all, so it's better to go to practice individually."

Moore nodded, slowly approached Zhuo Jun, and then naturally took Zhuo Jun's hand.Zhuo Jun's heartbeat immediately went up again. This is Moore's rare initiative. He is still under the statue. Does this mean to make a lifelong promise?

Of course, Moore didn't know that Zhuo Jun was full of wild thoughts, and asked, "The Ossi Empire cannot be wiped out in a short time, and they need a long period of rest. What are you going to do during this rare peaceful time?" ?”

Zhuo Jun replied subconsciously: "Make money to support the family... Moore, let's continue with our previous life? Let's take risks around the world, strengthen our own strength, and sooner or later we will kill that bastard Buff Meifu!"

A smile appeared on Moore's face, a few months was enough for him to bury his sadness and anger deep in his heart without showing it, but as Zhuo Jun said, Buff Meifu will have to pay the price sooner or later.

Seeing Moore smiling, Zhuo Jun was also very happy: "You are a bishop now, but isn't there only one bishop in every country? Which country are you the bishop of?"

"The Os Empire," Moore said with a smile, "when did the undead and supernatural beings be expelled, and they took office on the spot."

"Damn," Zhuo Jun couldn't help cursing, "Bad check? Your Archbishop is really shrewd."

Moore rubbed Zhuo Jun's hair, his eyes were full of tenderness: "Don't worry about this, as I said before, the status of Shenhui will not affect us, let's stay the same as before. I will leave here with you tomorrow .”

Looking at Moore's tender eyes, Zhuo Jun grabbed his palm: "En!"
