The Ten Shadow Sorcerers of the Nara Clan

And this squinty-eyed guy seems to have surprisingly good luck at the moment.

However, there was one thing he didn't quite understand. "Breaking through the elves' defenses in the north means victory? I don't think the gods will give up so easily. And how are you going to deal with the miserable soldiers in the swamp and the supporting 'Order' legion?"

"Let's not deal with anything and just let the Third Legion be destroyed," Anubis said with a smile, "They are just monsters anyway. I couldn't ask for more."

Soran, "..." "Haha, I'm not that cruel. If you can't win, you can just run away. There's such a big forest, so you can hide anywhere. As long as you can contain the 'Order', it will be enough.

Everyone is fighting, so no one is less at risk than the other. And I guess once the northern front launches an offensive, Order will have to turn back to rescue sooner or later. After all, the World Tree is the root of the gods, so how to hold it back will be a problem."

Anubis didn't know whether he was really joking or just saying it to fool people.

Soran looked at it suspiciously. "General, did you come to see me just to talk to me about strategic deployment?"

"How could that be? Didn't I tell you that I just came here to see if you were dead. If you weren't dead, I would chat with you. Why did I come here specially to visit you?"

Under Sauron's suspicious gaze, Anubis put on the helmet with a dog's head... or wolf's head? with a smile, and walked out of the tent with his belt in hand. "Okay, I won't disturb your rest. Anyway, you can't go to the battlefield in your current state. Just lie down and leave the rest to us."

Soran frowned and watched its back as it left. So why did this guy come here?

In the end, Soran never got his lover.

Cuihuahua and others came to visit him, and he slept for two naps on the hospital bed. Every time he woke up, he found himself in different places, sometimes in a carriage, sometimes in a boat. In short, he was getting farther and farther away from the battlefield.

It was as if this bloody war had nothing to do with him and was not started by him at all.

Finally, Soran was safely sent to the rear, back to the imperial capital, and stayed in a building in the company's base to recuperate.

As if someone wanted him to rest and recover from his injuries and not jump up and commit suicide again, Sauron found that all his information channels were blocked and he had no access to any information about the battle situation on the front line.

Fortunately, Soran did not fall into intermittent coma, and he finally remembered where he was.

It was the company's hospital, and he strongly requested it to be built.

However, for reasons known to everyone, in this magic world, the magic empire rarely has patients between the living and the dead. Therefore, the company's board of directors has cut the budget for nurses year by year, so that now the only person living in the special ward is Soran, a shareholder, and a group of skeletons who come and go to change his medicine, feed him, and bandage him, wearing the nurse uniforms he designed...

Fortunately, after many days, another patient was sent in to keep me company and enjoy this god-like treatment.

"Hey, Gilt, you're not dead yet..."

"..."Gilt was not much better than Soran, and was also wrapped up like a dumpling.

His current appearance is even more miserable, because his internal organs were shattered by the shot from "Mercy". Now half of his body is empty, with dense spider-web-like blood vessels, colorful internal organs and new organs generated from pink flesh, wrapped in a slime-like transparent gel, and one can even see the blood vessels beating.

"So what the hell is this?"

"The liver of the great war god, the flesh and blood of Eve, the spine of the elf and the heart of the dragon, some organs taken here and there from the battlefield, and some of Killian's secret treasures and new things made by the Technology Development Bureau." Gilt had a blank expression.

Soran also had a blank expression on his face, "That's too much. It's too much to be so biased."

Gilt shrugged. "What's the situation now? I just remember that Killian sent me to the Technology Development Bureau for emergency treatment, and when I woke up, I was sent here."

"..." Soran looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, feeling lonely. He could still vaguely see the leather belt hanging from his legs on the bed. "Then you really asked the right person..."

If there's anything worse than being locked up in a ward alone, it's probably being locked up in a ward with Gilt.

This guy is totally hopeless, he didn't react at all, just out of courtesy, um, yeah, oh, okay.

So much so that no matter what topic Soran talked about with him, it would end quickly, or he would just chatter on and on, and could only talk about some meaningless things, such as the grand blueprint of the company's future plans, and some irrelevant chicken soup to relieve boredom, which made Soran's mouth dry and his muscles cramped. In the end, the ward could only fall into an even more awkward silence.

What made Soran even more speechless was that by the next day, with the help of various secret medicines and rare animal organs, Gilt's injuries had all healed and he was able to get out of bed and move around.

"You talk too much.

Lord Lun, you should use this rare time to recuperate and heal your wounds."

This guy actually mocked him like this! It almost made Soran so angry that he lost his mind.

So he stayed alone in the ward for another three days, until Sauron finally began to feel that his feet belonged to him again. He was so excited that he could run around and die again.

Anubis unexpectedly appeared at the door of the ward again with a smile on his face.

This guy must be in trouble. Soran just looked at him blankly and didn't ask.

Anubis also smiled and sat down beside Soran's bed without saying anything.

The two of them stared at each other for a long time as if they were arguing with each other.

Until the skeleton nurse walked in with a girl who looked a lot like Soi-Fong. She had short black hair and fair skin, like a porcelain doll, and a pair of ice-blue eyes that looked like lakes, with faint red neon flashing inside. It was obvious that she was some kind of super-superior magic eye.

Soran frowned immediately, and Anubis nodded, confirming his guess, "This is 'Death'."

The little daughter of the Feng family, the vessel of death...

Then Anubis turned to the little girl and said, "This is the 'Knight of Death', Soran."

The little girl shook her head, "I don't know him."

For a moment, Soran didn't understand what was going on. Until Anubis smiled at him again and said,

"You see, this is what is happening. Our only supreme god, Death, does not recognize you.

Because as early as when its container was born, it followed the young master of the Bee family, hiding in her two souls and appearing in the world together.

Then may I ask you, sir, where did the 'death' that you brought with you three years ago, which is now hidden between your two souls, come from?"

Chapter 8 Shikakuro and Sasuke

At 1: p.m., An Zhe and Zhang Haitao arrived at Jiangzhou Hotel early and waited for Guan Xinmin in front of the VIP building.

Qiao Liang and relevant staff were also in front of the VIP building.

Shao Bingyu and Lu Qian were also there. Shao Bingyu was in charge of publicity and reporting, while Lu Qian was in charge of security.

An Zhe and Zhang Haitao were talking in low voices. Qiao Liang stood behind them. Lu Qian stood aside. She didn't look at Shao Bingyu, but stared at Qiao Liang from time to time. Her two little fists clenched and unclenched. Qiao Liang smiled secretly and pretended not to see it.

After a while, when Luo Fei and Chu Heng had not arrived yet, Zhang Haitao asked his staff to call and urge them. This was Guan Xinmin's first visit to Jiangzhou after he took over as the acting leader of Jiangdong, and it would not be good to be late to greet him.

After a while, the staff came to report that Luo Fei and Chu Heng went directly to the highway exit to meet Guan Xinmin.

Hearing the report, Zhang Haitao was surprised and told An Zhe. An Zhe nodded calmly without saying anything.

Qiao Liang was also surprised at this time. An Zhe clearly did not agree to go to greet him, but Luo Fei went there without permission and even brought Chu Heng along.

Welcoming the leader may not seem like a big deal, but Luo Fei's move, in a sense, seems to imply a split within the Jiangzhou team.

Qiao Liang saw that Zhang Haitao was obviously uneasy, but An Zhe was very calm, as if Luo Fei and Chu Heng's actions were within his expectations.

After a while, Guan Xinmin's convoy arrived, with Luo Fei's car in the front and the minibus that Guan Xinmin was riding in behind.

The convoy stopped in front of the VIP building. Luo Fei and Chu Heng got out of the car and walked quickly to the minibus.

An Zhe and Zhang Haitao were welcoming Guan Xinmin in front of the minibus.

Then Guan Xinmin got out of the car steadily and shook hands with An Zhe and Zhang Haitao with a reserved smile.

Although Guan Xinmin's identity at this time is different from before and he has become the acting boss of Jiangdong Province, there is no difference in his expression and demeanor. He is still so steady and calm.

When Guan Xinmin shook hands with An Zhe, he said, "Comrade An Zhe, I want to criticize you."

An Zhe was stunned, and everyone was stunned. Guan Xinmin criticized An Zhe as soon as they met. Why?

Guan Xinmin continued, "When Comrade Gu Feng was working in Jiangdong, there was a rule that when the leaders came down, the people below were not allowed to greet or see off. Today, when I just got off the highway, Comrades Luo Fei and Chu Heng were waiting to greet me at the highway exit. This is against the rules. How could you arrange for them to do this?"

Luo Fei and Chu Heng laughed dryly, but their expressions were calm, especially Chu Heng. He was a little excited at this moment, because he knew that he was able to accompany Guan Xinmin on the inspection this time because it was added by the higher-ups, and he seemed to smell something from it.

After hearing what Guan Xinmin said, everyone looked at An Zhe. Qiao Liang and Zhang Haitao were a little worried. An Zhe clearly did not recommend going to the highway exit to pick up the children. This was just Luo Fei and Chu Heng's unauthorized behavior. Guan Xinmin might not be unaware of this, but he criticized An Zhe in this way. Obviously, there was another meaning, and the meaning was even deeper. They didn't know how An Zhe would answer.

An Zhe continued, "Secretary Guan, we remember the rules set by Secretary Liao very clearly, and we have no intention of violating them. We warmly welcome Secretary Guan to Jiangzhou for inspection today. Mayor Luo and Minister Chu will go to the highway exit to greet him.

This is not arranged by me. It should be because they respect and love Secretary Guan and attach great importance to Secretary Guan's inspection in Jiangzhou. This is understandable. "

"Oh, is that so?" Guan Xinmin looked at Luo Fei and Chu Heng, and they smiled and nodded.

Guan Xinmin then laughed and said, "Comrade Anzhe, I misunderstood you."

Anzhe also smiled: "In fact, although Secretary-General Haitao and I did not go to the highway exit to greet Secretary Guan, we attach great importance to Secretary Guan's visit to Jiangzhou this time, and we also have great respect for Secretary Guan."

Although Anzhe's words sounded casual, his words were chosen very carefully.

Zhang Haitao smiled and nodded: "Yes, in order to welcome Secretary Guan to Jiangzhou for inspection, Secretary An personally made detailed and careful arrangements for the content and process of the inspection and other related matters. He came here half an hour in advance to await Secretary Guan's arrival."

"Yeah." Guan Xinmin nodded, "Okay, okay!"

Then Guan Xinmin walked in, accompanied by An Zhe and others. Others got off the car one after another. At this time, Qiao Liang saw Ye Xinyi. She came with reporters from provincial news media to report on Guan Xinmin's activities throughout.

At this moment, Ye Xinyi's expression looked almost the same as usual, as if she had come out of the shadow of Wei Xiaobei's incident.

Qiao Liang and Shao Bingyu greeted Ye Xinyi. Ye Xinyi nodded to them, then saw Lu Qian and nodded to her as well.

Lu Qian snorted, curled her lips, and then turned her head away.

Ye Xinyi pursed her lips and sighed softly.

Then everyone went into the building.

At this time, Guan Xinmin, who was walking in front, asked An Zhe as he walked: "What are your plans for the afternoon?"

"At 3 pm, Secretary Guan held a discussion with some outstanding private enterprise leaders in Jiangzhou at the hotel. They have arrived and are waiting in the conference room." An Zhe said.

Guan Xinmin nodded and continued, "Is there any Chint Group?"

"Yes." Anzhe said.

"Who is the person in charge from Chint Group?" Guan Xinmin asked again.

An Zhe said: "Zhengtai Group Chairman Fang Xiaoya has been in the United States, and the one who came here today is President Li Youwei."

"Li Youwei... is the one who got into trouble within the system before and later switched to the business world, right?" Guan Xinmin said.

"Yes, that's right. Li Youwei used to be the head of Jiangzhou Daily. Later, he left the system because of economic problems and became the president of Chint Group." An Zhe said.

"Okay, Li Youwei is a versatile and capable person. I met him once at Chint Group last time and he left a deep impression on me. It's great to meet him again today." Guan Xinmin said enthusiastically.

After hearing Guan Xinmin's evaluation of Li Youwei, Luo Fei and Chu Heng looked at each other and felt a little uncomfortable, especially Chu Heng, who felt a strong sense of jealousy.

Qiao Liang followed beside them and noticed the subtle expressions of Luo Fei and Chu Heng. He snorted secretly, "Damn, even though you two are doing well in politics, if you were in the business world, you probably wouldn't even be qualified to carry Li Youwei's shoes."

Guan Xinmin went to the room to take a short rest. At 3: p.m., accompanied by An Zhe, Luo Fei, Chu Heng, Zhang Haitao and the deputy mayor in charge, he went to the conference room to hold a discussion with some outstanding private enterprise leaders in Jiangzhou.

Ye Xin

Yi and Shao Bingyu followed with reporters from provincial and municipal news media.

After entering the conference room, the entrepreneurs who had been waiting there stood up and applauded to welcome him. Guan Xinmin shook hands with everyone in turn with a smile on his face, and An Zhe introduced Guan Xinmin to him.

When it was Li Youwei's turn, Guan Xinmin shook Li Youwei's hand, turned to An Zhe and said, "President Li is an acquaintance, no need for introduction."
