Ark Traveler, I want to take a day off today too

“Hah!” The girl shouted and thrust the sword in her hand straight out, but when she noticed that Lin Lei was not wearing any protective gear, she subconsciously slowed down her speed. This also allowed Lin Lei to grasp the opponent’s sword with his bare hands:

"Maria-Lin Guang! Don't sympathize with your enemies in battle. All mercy should be bestowed by the victor, not now." He growled and pushed lightly, and the girl staggered back several steps.

"Now, let me see the results of your training during the day! Don't show mercy, because you don't deserve it!"

041. If you don’t accept my toast, will I be punished with a toast?

"thump!"

This was the third time Maria was knocked to the ground by Lin Lei that night. It must be said that the protective performance of the girl’s armor was quite good. If it were the members of the Red Pine Knights, the force of Lin Lei’s attack alone would have knocked them to the ground and made them unable to get up.

"Ouch...it hurts."

The girl’s fair face was already covered in mud, but she was still struggling to stand up with the sword in her hand. In a sense, Linley was a rather rough blacksmith at this moment, and Maria was the weapon she was shaping.

All the sword skills and fighting techniques she had learned from Zofia during the day were hammered into her instincts by Lin Lei in the simplest and most direct way. "Stand up, fight with your sword and shield!" The stick in the man's hand collided with the girl's sword again, but at the beginning he reduced his strength again - because Lin Lei could feel that Maria's physical strength was rapidly draining away.

The man swung the stick in his hand again, using almost the same starting posture, which made Maria brace herself again. She immediately met the attack with her shield and sword.

"clang!"

The first time, the little knight leaned her shield sideways to barely block Linley’s first blow, but this also caused her originally planned action to deviate. But there was no time! Maria gritted her teeth and raised the straight sword in her hand again to take the initiative to meet the man’s stick!

"clang!"

The second time, the sword in Maria's hand flew out of her hand and spun into the mud beside her. But the girl did not stop her movements, but tried her best to hold the shield with both hands, and then directly pushed the opponent!

'boom! '

Lin Lei took two steps back, while the girl took the full recoil of his own attack and fell to the ground. “Ouch…” Maria cried out in pain again, and the man immediately broke the popsicle in his hand and threw the white healing grenade into the other person’s body.

Zofia, who had been watching from the sidelines for a while, immediately rushed to the stage. She first glared at Linley viciously, then immediately took out her handkerchief and wiped the girl’s face: “You’re too cruel.”

“Really? I think it’s just right.” Linley naturally didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. He walked over to the two of them and squatted down. “Maria, are you still awake?”

"Well, and thank you, Mr. Dredge."

"Maria, you're not sick, are you? He beat you up like this, and you still want to thank him?" The female knight stared at Maria's face with a strange look on her face. "He didn't give you some kind of love potion, did he?"

"No, Mr. Drizzie's Originium skills just now have made me feel much better, Sister Zofia." The girl said, opening her golden eyes wide, "and I can feel that Mr. Drizzie... has no ill intentions."

“How did you come up with the shield charge just now?” Linley smiled and reached out his hand to tidy up the girl’s slightly messy bangs. “That was pretty good, but the force was a little weak.”

"I thought of doing this subconsciously because I didn't really block your first attack, Mr. Drjie." The girl stuck out her tongue and laughed, and only then did he realize that Maria was still a little girl, perhaps about the same age as Sona?

"Have you ever considered putting a spike on your shield?"

Linley gestured with his hands, “When the time comes, even if you are not very strong, you will be able to easily cause unimaginable damage to the opponent.”

"Eh? Isn't this a bit too low-class?" The girl suddenly widened her eyes, trying to confirm whether the other party was joking.

“This is poor quality. I didn’t use a small sickle… Sorry, I’m off topic. You didn’t even put any needles on the armor for bleeding. How can this be called dirty?” Linley stroked his chin and thought: “But if you do this, your shield will be much heavier and its protective ability may not be as good as it is now.”

“Then... forget it.” The girl immediately rejected Lin Lei’s suggestion. Just kidding, if such a beautiful shield was equipped with a spike... wouldn’t it be ugly?

At this time, Sofia looked at her niece in an unquestionable tone: "Also, Maria, you can sleep here with me today... This way it will be convenient for us to train tomorrow."

"Eh? That uncle..."

“I’ve already called Mainna to let him know, and he has no objection… Besides, he has to work overtime today, so he won’t be home even if you go back.” Sofia continued, and then she looked at Linley who had already stood up.

"Are you ready to leave?"

“Why? You want to fight too?” Linley rubbed his aching shoulders. “If you want to come, I’ll definitely accompany you to the end.”

"My hand isn't healed yet, but thanks for your help...Are you interested in coming here for dinner again tomorrow?"

Upon hearing this, Linley gave a bitter smile: “Do you really want to see Maria get beaten up?”

"What does it have to do with me? Sister Zofia just wanted to treat you to a meal..." The girl blinked in confusion, but then she understood what she meant, "Can you come back for the test in a few days?"

"No, it has nothing to do with Maria. I just want to talk to you about something else. But if you want to leave, I won't see you off." Zofia pursed her lips and pointed to the exit. "I hope you don't accidentally run into those mice in the shadows when you go out today."

“I can’t say for sure about this kind of thing.” Linley shrugged. He then handed his thorn to Maria. “If you want to take a look, go ahead. But remember not to shoot recklessly. The recoil and power of this thing are not small.”

"Is this a gun?"

“Just take that as it is. And don’t tear it apart. I’m going to take it back in a couple of days.” Linley said as he picked up the monarch butterfly that was placed beside him and walked out the door. He had to admit that what Sofia said was quite accurate. Right now, there really was an assassin from the No Helmet Alliance outside her villa staring at him.

And if nothing unexpected happened, he should have been watching me since I just arrived at the door of the villa. "I should have told your predecessor that even the Platinum Lord of your Wuzhou League doesn't dare to keep an eye on me 24 hours a day."

Then Linley pulled the bowstring of the monarch butterfly, and the arrow flew out in the next second. Before the assassin from the No Helmet Alliance could put up any resistance, he fell from the roof. The man then picked up the headset from the corpse and said slowly:

"I have no interest in being your enemy, but if I remind you in a nice way and you don't listen... then don't blame me for being rude."

042. Amusement Park (fourth update)

"I have no interest in being your enemy, but if I remind you in a nice way and you don't listen... then don't blame me for being rude."

Roy squatted on the tall building and looked at each other with Monique: "I remember we had already withdrawn our people before, how come someone still dared to keep an eye on him?"

"Do you think this is what the three above meant?"

"Impossible. If the three above really had ideas about Drjie, they would definitely not let an archer from the No-Hero Alliance keep an eye on him." Having worked under the three Xuan Ties for ten years, although Roy still didn't know the three real controllers very well, he already had a general understanding of their way of doing things.

So he immediately denied Monique's guess: "If my guess is correct, it was a director of the Business Federation who contacted our assassin privately." The face that wore a hypocritical smile most of the time still remained smiling, but the pair of eyes like a venomous snake were terribly cold:

"It looks like we need to conduct a simple cleanup of the Wu Zhou Alliance. How dare they take private jobs behind our backs?"

"I'll report to Xuantie and the others right away." Monique walked towards the Wuzhou League's headquarters building without hesitation, and Roy immediately stopped her: "Don't worry, I think we should let Xiao Baijin go over and apologize, right?"

"Can't you do this yourself? Or do you want to go find Xuantie?"

"Then you should go. I don't have the courage."

'And who on earth did Dredger come into contact with that made the directors of the Business Federation care so much? If it was just a group of infected knights, this kind of thing would not happen. ' Roy immediately ran towards the location where the signal last appeared, "I have to go see where that guy died."

...The divider for the second day...

As soon as Lin Lei came downstairs, he saw Bai Jin holding a fruit basket. What was different from the previous two days was that Miss Tianma was even dressed up carefully today. Whether it was her eyebrows, nails, or even the clothes she wore today, they were all specially selected.

"No, Miss Xinteleya, what's the matter with you?" Oh, she even sprayed perfume. That faint fragrance definitely couldn't be Bai Jin's body fragrance. After all, he didn't smell it for the past two days. "Why are you wearing such an outfit? Is the fruit basket in your hand going to take me to a nursing home?"

Bai Jin was furious when she heard this. She handed the basket to Lin Lei without further ado. “It was those two Qing Jins who said they had offended me last night and told me to dress up nicely and apologize to you. They said that person was not sent by the Wu Zhou Alliance.”

"Oh, is that so... Then I can only say that you look really good in this outfit, Miss Cintria." The white lace dress matched with the long legs wrapped in white silk, and the pair of small high heels inlaid with gold wire made the girl look even more elegant. However, this outfit was obviously not suitable for an assassin of the Helmetless Alliance, and Cintria didn't even bring the 'Oath Keeper' for this outfit.

“Also, you must have wanted to wear this dress for a long time, right?” Lin Lei glanced at the fruit basket in his hand. From the packaging to the price tag that had not been torn off, it was obvious that Bai Jin had just bought it from a fruit store.

"Of course. Ever since I joined the Wu Zhou League, I rarely have the chance to wear the clothes I bought." The girl sighed, "Also, if you don't like the fruits in the fruit basket, just throw them away."

"It would be a shame to throw it away. At least I still like to eat strawberries." Well, he would like it even more if the strawberries came from the person he likes.

"Because I bought this with a discount coupon given by a junior director, and it cost less than fifteen dollars, which is probably not as expensive as the scones you treated me to yesterday." Bai Jin shrugged and took out two tickets to the amusement park as if nothing had happened: "Also, are you interested in going to the amusement park?"

Although it seems indifferent, girl, your heartbeat reveals that you really want to go and play, right? However, at this time, Lin Lei also knew to take care of the other party's feelings: "I don't think I have been to the amusement park yet, but why not go if I have a ticket?"

“Let’s go, while there are few people here and it’s a weekday.” Bai Jin immediately suppressed the urge to drag Lin Lei and set off quickly. Instead, she coughed lightly and walked slowly, like a real lady.

The girl herself found it a little funny. She was obviously thinking about resting all the time, thinking about being able to wear nice clothes on holidays and wander freely on the streets. It would be even better if there were one or two people to accompany her to the amusement park.

And all of this has now been realized because of the appearance of one person, simply because his appearance made the two Qingjin feel scared?

“So if you really want to go to the amusement park, you might as well walk faster.” Linley rubbed his fingers with a smile. “Although I haven’t been to the amusement park in Cavaleliaki, most of the amusement parks I know are definitely not too close to the city center.”

Bai Jin didn’t say anything after hearing this, but her walking speed obviously increased by more than twice. “It seems that this little assassin really wants to go to the amusement park.” Lin Lei shrugged and quickly followed. At the same time, he subconsciously reached for his coat pocket. Whenever he had some free time like this, he always wanted to smoke a cigarette.

A quarter of an hour later, the two of them successfully arrived at the amusement park that claimed to be the largest in Casimir. At this time, a not-so-long queue had already formed at the entrance: "Hey, you said that we, the members of the No Helmet Alliance... even have to queue up."

The girl immediately started to complain, while Linley happily smoked his cigarette: “After all, this is the only way to demonstrate the importance of your Casimir Rules, right? It’s still early anyway, so we just need to be back before dinner.”

"Oh? Who do you have a date with again?"

......Headquarters of the No-Hero Alliance...

"If I guess correctly, Drijer walked out of the Whip Knight's villa last night." Roy crossed his legs and whistled. "What do you think based on this, Miss Monique?"

"A retired top 16 competitive knight? What's there to monitor?"

"No, no, no, Monique, you forgot one thing." Roy immediately restrained his cynical expression, "That Whip Blade is a relative of the Linguang Family. In a sense, she is the aunt of the Glory Knight."

"Yes, but so what? The Linguang family doesn't even have a captain now. What's there to target?" Monique said disdainfully, "The legend of the golden Pegasus is over."

043. Platinum and the Ferris Wheel (Fifth Update!)

"Is the legend of the golden Pegasus really over?"

Roy couldn't say. After all, even today, it was the only family without a long-time knight that still received so much attention and care from the Supervisory Commission. If there was really no possibility of revival, then why would the Chamber of Commerce still care so much about this family?

Even though he had never really attacked the Linguang family, Roy had still heard of the legend of Cyril Linguang, and his granddaughter Margaret Linguang was the champion of the 22nd Knight Competition. Qingjin Dawei still remembered the title of "Glorious Knight" given to Margaret.

"Wait, why was the Brilliant Knight expelled from Casimir?" Roy seemed to realize something and asked hurriedly, while Monique looked at him with a puzzled look:

"She was expelled from Casimir because she was infected. Is there any problem with that?"

"So do you remember who that Dredger has been in contact with recently?" Roy sat up straight. "They are either from the Linguang family or the infected knights... and that Rhodes Island seems to be a pharmaceutical company related to the infected."

"Perhaps we can look forward to the return of Knight Yao?"

"Should we tell Xuantie about this?" Monique asked in a low voice, "This is a big deal no matter how you think about it, right?"

"Do you think the Xuantie don't know when we talk about it here?" Roy laughed softly, "Don't forget where this is! But our little Platinum may suffer a little." After all, she is just a Platinum...

......Big Knight leads the amusement park.....

Lin Lei looked at Bai Jin who was sitting on the carousel with great interest. Who could have imagined that this girl smiling on the amusement ride was a killer with blood on her hands?

"Having fun?"

“Very happy. I’d be even happier if you could come with me.” Bai Jin pursed his lips and took the double scoop of ice cream handed over by Lin Lei. “Thank you, but isn’t it cold to eat this in this weather?”

“Aren’t you cold wearing so little?” Linley complained, and then stuffed a ball of strawberry ice cream into his mouth. Upon hearing what she said, the girl quietly placed one hand on his waist and applied a little force. What an unromantic guy!

Bai Jin then looked at the Ferris wheel that was slowly spinning nearby and said, "Shall we go play that?"

“This thing, hmm, is okay. At least it looks suitable for children who are eight years and one hundred and four months old.” Linley swallowed the ice cream in two or three bites, while Bai Jin licked the vanilla ice cream ball bit by bit like a very girly girl.

"I suddenly think it's better for you to stop talking. Let's go buy two cups of milk tea first... It looks like there aren't many people here."

"Generally, if there's no one in this kind of shop in an amusement park, the drinks are either too expensive or too bad." The man glanced at it and asked, "Are you sure you want to drink it?"

“What are you doing? Who said you have to drink it after you buy it? It’s called atmosphere, don’t you understand? You have to ride the Ferris wheel with handsome guys and drink milk tea together.” Bai Jin said confidently. Lin Lei naturally couldn’t persuade the girl, so he followed her into the milk tea shop. “You are good-looking, but unfortunately you have a big mouth.”

“I’m good at talking, okay?” Linley touched his nose. “You should know that I earned most of my vacation time with this mouth. But you didn’t drag me into this empty milk tea shop just to drink milk tea, did you?”

"Of course not. I also want to ask, what did you do last night that made the two Qingjins so anxious to ask me to apologize."

“Nothing. Your people were still watching me late at night, and I had clearly warned them before dinner.” Lin Lei shrugged. “So I symbolically killed one person and said some harsh words. But the information I got from you made me know one thing.” As he spoke, he put his head in front of Bai Jin.

"What's the matter?" The girl also lowered her voice.

"You Wuzhou League are not united." Suddenly, he condensed a flying knife made of flames, and then threw it directly out of the door of the milk tea shop! The flying knife flew through the passers-by like a moth and hit the Wuzhou League assassin hiding behind the street lamp directly at his feet!

'Ding~'

Without the slightest hesitation, the Helmetless Alliance assassin turned and ran. Bai Jin wanted to catch up with her skirt, but Linley pulled her back to her seat. “Girl, if you want to chase a fully armed assassin, you should at least bring a bow. You don’t even have a place to put your weapons, how are you going to kill him?”

"What should we do? Just let that bastard get away like this?"

“Since someone asked him to monitor me, it won’t be just for a while.” Lin Lei waved his hand and took a sip of the red bean milk tea that Bai Jin ordered for him. It tasted a little sweeter. “So just have fun. This matter has nothing to do with you. Leave it to me.”

This episode also silenced Bai Jin, who was originally reminiscing about his youth on the Ferris wheel, but Lin Lei started to laugh: “Why do you look so worried? Since your Qing Jin asked you to do this, it’s not your fault, right? Your Wu Zhou Alliance is becoming more and more like a local enterprise.”

"What company needs to be on call all year round?" Bai Jin complained, "And you have to know that it is absolutely not allowed to take private jobs without permission in Wu Zhou League. Every commission and every task must be confirmed by at least three Xuan Tie, two Qing Jin, and one Bai Jin before it can be executed."

"Money talks. Otherwise, why would you join the Helmetless Alliance?"

“Do you want to hear about my past?” Bai Jin said as he stood up from the swaying carriage, then sat down next to Lin Lei and leaned in. “Listen to a story about the independent knight Xinteleya.”

The girl leaned closer to Linley as she spoke, as if this would give her a great sense of security. “My career as an independent knight was actually quite boring. I just lost matches on purpose at the request of the Business Association. But in my last match as a knight, that bastard had clearly won the match, yet he still continued to abuse me even though I had already surrendered…”

"So, you killed him?"

"This was the first mission given to me by the No-Horn Alliance. When I picked up the longbow given to me by the No-Horn Alliance, I realized that I couldn't escape... And my master, the previous Platinum Master, was killed by me because he fell in love with the target of his mission. I became the new Platinum Master..."

“It sounds a bit bumpy, but you still have a way to go.” Lin Lei smiled and ruffled the long hair of the girl beside him: “As long as you don’t betray my trust, you will always be safe with me.”

044. Ordinary Clerk

The Ferris wheel in the amusement park was still spinning slowly, and Bai Jin was still leaning on Lin Lei. She stared at him with her eyes wide open. “Can I understand that you are looking for a way out for me? Or do you simply want to seduce me, a killer from the No Heroes Alliance?”
