Chapter 206: The Beginning of the Turning Point

Karen originally thought that the negotiation would end in the evening, but what he didn't expect was that the people on both sides at the negotiating table had no intention of turning off the fire, and continued to quarrel.

Then, the dining car was pushed in, and the waiter brought the simple meal to the negotiating table of both parties. The negotiators of both parties continued to argue while eating.

From the original saliva flying, it became a collision of food residues in the mouth;

The forks and spoons in his hands, like knives and swords, are constantly waving towards the opposite side from a long distance;

The blushing look combined with the vigorous chewing action, as if swallowing the opponent's flesh and blood.

However, this was a hardship for Karen and the others, because no one brought them food, and they only had breakfast today, no matter how full they were, they would not last until nightfall.

Hungry, no interest in continuing to watch the lively quarrel, Karen clearly felt the anxiety from the two women beside him.

But there is no way. When you come down, you will find that this floor is closed. You can't call for food to come up, let alone leave this floor to find food.

Responsibilities, rules, tasks, and too many constraints, I can only take the time to go to the bathroom.

However, Karen discovered an abnormality, that is, the frequency of many people around him going to the toilet has become much higher at this moment.

Naturally, not only the three of them, Karen, Fanny, and Gao, were sitting below, but also the negotiating support staff of the two churches, who recorded, provided suggestions, and provided information.

After the passenger ship was bombed, Derius rescued a group of people accompanying him ashore, only a dozen people, but Pamires had a delegation that had already entered York City, and they are now included in the part of the delegation.

The anomaly among the anomalies is that the ones who go to the bathroom most frequently are basically the priests of the Cult of Kosmos sitting below.

Karen stood up, and motioned to Fanny and Xie beside her to go to the bathroom.

The bathroom is at the corner to the right of the conference hall. When Karen walked in, he found that someone was distributing bread and milk in bags at the door of the bathroom. Many people were standing here, gobbling it up because they had to rush back.

If you leave for too long, the impact will be bad. If the high-level negotiators above you suddenly have a question and want to provide an answer when you leave, but you are not there, this is a sin.

However, depending on the situation, these people who distributed bread and milk in bags should know each other themselves.

But Karen didn't know them, because Karen only appeared here on a mission, and the social circle couldn't spread here at all. In fact, the two sides were not a system.

The other party's food may also be rationed, and it will probably only be given to people you know.

However, Karen was still ready to take the initiative to ask for it.

After all, what is the problem if it is not a department or a system?

Aren't we all loyal believers of the God of Order? The believers in the world are one family!

It was a real loss to go hungry for a little face and reserve, and Karen had to consider preparing some food for the two ladies around him whose stomachs were already growling.

However, before Karen could take the initiative to speak, a large piece of bread and a bag of milk were handed over by a hand next to her.

Karen reached out to catch it, and turned to look at the man. It turned out to be Leon, the grandson of the Chief Bishop of York City.

It's him?

At this moment, Karen was a little embarrassed, but it was only for a moment. The next moment he began to bite the bread, and then used his teeth to bite a small opening in the milk bag, sucking a big mouthful of milk to help him swallow.

"Hey, I don't know you." Leon looked at Karen and smiled, "Which department are you from?"

"I am the Whip of Order."

"Oh, Whip of Order's personal security personnel?"

Obviously, Leon is clear about the workflow of Whip of Order.

At this time, only the personal security personnel can appear openly, and the rest of the personnel can only hide in the dark for protection.

"um, yes."

"Leon, I heard that the Neo team is responsible for this security mission."

A young priest next to him said while washing his hands. From the way he spoke to Leon, it can be seen that the position may not be high, but the status is definitely not low.

Because the other priests thanked Leon immediately after receiving the milk and bread, and did not take the initiative to speak, but stood aside and swallowed quickly. One was because of time constraints, and the other was because everyone knew the difference in status between them.

"Laure, what happened to the Neo team?" Leon asked back.

"Oh, isn't it rumored that Miss Ophelia boarded the ship and returned with a big belly?"

With that said, Laurel reached out and took out a tissue from the side while wiping his hands while looking at Karen who was eating, and continued:

"This one is pretty good-looking, hehe, is that you?"

Only the close security team can get close to the protected target, and there are only so many people in a team, so the close security team generally does not change the staffing.

Most importantly, Karen was handsome, even for a man.

Just like men like beautiful women, women will definitely fall in love with handsome men more, and often fall in love at first sight in a short period of time, all based on good looks.

Hearing this, Leon took a step sideways and looked at Karen seriously.

Karen swallowed the bread in his mouth, smiled and said, "I don't know how the rumors spread."

"Hehe, your team didn't spread the news, otherwise, who would know about it?" Laurel sneered.

What Laurey said was actually correct. Even Karen himself felt that the rumors should have been deliberately spread by the captain and the others in order to make a name for their team so that they could continue to monopolize this kind of security mission that cost more money and less trouble.

For the higher-ups, it is what they would like to see if the team of foreign envoys can be entertained safely and comfortably. If they even talk about love, it must be more comfortable.

"I said, Leon, do you want to have a duel with him, hahaha." Laurel joked.

Everyone in the circle knew that Leon, as the grandson of the Chief Bishop of York City, might have represented the Cult of Order to marry Darkmoon Island, and that was how the wind was blowing at the time.

And the reason why the rumors are so powerful that many people spread them is that after Ophelia returned to Darkmoon Island, Darkmoon Island handled the marriage indifferently. This phenomenon is almost a rumor The best proof of authenticity.

Maybe, even the captain who spread the rumors didn't expect things to develop like this... My side is just hyping up a gossip to gain popularity, why are you still cooperating?

Therefore, to a certain extent, there is indeed a natural contradiction between Karen and Leon.

Although Karen knows that this is not the case, "wearing a hat" has never paid attention to the facts. When outsiders think you have a colored hat on your head, whether you really have a hat on your head is no longer important. up.

Laurel looked like he was watching a show, and deliberately flirted with him. Karen felt that he either had a good relationship with Leon, or that he had a bad relationship with Leon, which was a contradiction in itself.

At this moment, Leon put his hand on Karen's shoulder and asked, "So, is that you?"

Karen sighed inwardly, and replied again: "That's not true."

Leon said: "Whether this is true or not is not important."

Karen took another bite of the bread and said nothing.

"Anyway, thank you."

"Um?"

Leon hugged Karen's shoulder directly: "Thank you for helping me solve a big problem."

"Haha." Laurel also laughed, and changed his previous tone of speaking, "You don't know how anxious he was when he knew that he was going to be married, even Darkmoon Island didn't seem to be so eager to marry Now, if it wasn't for these rumors spreading too much, his grandfather would have asked him to visit Darkmoon Island in person."

Leon took it for granted: "Nonsense, who is willing to accept this kind of marriage arrangement?"

"It's really just a rumour," Karen said.

But this matter, I can't really say that it has nothing to do with me. To a certain extent, it is because of the existence of my "clan" that has affected Dark Moon Island's expectations for marriage.

"Okay, I don't care if it's true or not. Compared with some so-called gossip, I value my marital happiness more. The married life I dream of is not lying on the same bed with my wife representing different interests. bed.

Then my wife is pregnant, and I have to consider whether to take my surname or hers to maximize the benefits. "

Laurel laughed: "Leon wants to pursue his own happiness, just like in a love story."

"By the way, what's your name?" Leon asked.

"Karen, Karen Silva."

"Okay, Karen, we will come out to play together when we have a chance."

"Okay." Karen nodded, finished the last bit of bread in his hand, and then asked Leon: "Well, bread, is there any more?"

"Oh, of course, there are some more, aren't you full?"

"I also have two companions sitting in it."

"Haha, it seems that you have no experience."

Leon took out a few pieces of bread and a few bags of milk from the side box and handed them to Karen, who put them into his clothes.

"I'm going back to the meeting room first, thank you for your bread and milk."

"Don't be so polite."

Karen returned to the meeting room, sat down, and then secretly handed the bread and milk to the two women beside her. The two women were stunned for a moment, then put the milk and bread into their clothes, and went out pretending to go to the bathroom up.

Above, the negotiation is still going on, and several people's voices are already hoarse, but the hoarse roar seems to have a sense of power.

Karen's attention was no longer on it. He found that Leon and Laurel hadn't come back yet. Obviously, although this kind of son-in-law was also arranged into the negotiating delegation, they had greater autonomy, unlike others. Worrying about the impact of being away for a long time.

So, did Leon really stay at the door of the bathroom as a volunteer to distribute bread and milk?

Fortunately, the worst situation didn't happen. Karen didn't feel that Leon was a disguise for him before, because as him, he wanted to take revenge on a non-staff member of the Whip of Order, so there was no need to make it so complicated.

It seems that this son-in-law really rejects this political marriage.

Did the captain already know this?

Karen thinks it is very possible, because the captain can often know some information that the leader of the Whip of Order team cannot know.

Fanny and Xiecao came back. After eating, the two women felt much better. After sitting down, they both had smiles on their faces.

But the torture continued, and the meeting lasted until one o'clock in the morning.

At the end of the meeting, the negotiators on both sides were supported by their own people, and even two of them fainted.

The Karen team escorted Derius into the elevator, and when the elevator reached the floor and the door opened, they found two dining cars parked outside.

"You prepared?" Karen asked "Little Elevator" Richard.

"Well, I saw that you haven't come up, so I prepared it for you in advance and put it here, but it should be cold now."

"It's okay, you've done a good job." Fanny said.

"Yes." Xie Zi licked his lips.

The elevator doors are closed;

Xie Cai and Fanny pushed one dining car back to their room, while Karen pushed another and followed Derius into his room.

"Sir, please use it slowly."

"Let's eat together, I can't eat so much by myself."

again?

Karen looked at the dining car in front of him, did he also take drugs today?

But since people made such a request, Karen couldn't refuse because of his responsibility. He could only serve the food to the coffee table, and sat down face to face with Derius to start eating.

Although Derius had a light meal to eat halfway, he was consuming more and he was very hungry at the moment, while Karen's pure hunger made him not care whether to take medicine or not, anyway, it was harmless.

Neither of them spoke, but concentrated on eating.

Finally, Karen was full.

Derius ate by himself for a while before putting down his fork.

"Today, I really worked hard on you." Derius said.

"It's you who worked hard, and we're fine." Karen responded with a smile, "I'll help you clean up, so you can go to bed earlier."

At eight o'clock tomorrow, the meeting will continue.

Derius shook his head and said, "Tomorrow won't be such a torment."

Karen continued to clear the tray without pausing, let alone asking "why".

Delius didn't continue to say anything, but went straight into the bathroom to take a shower. Karen packed up and returned to his room.

Xicao and Fanny had already eaten, Xicao took off her clothes again and lay down on the bed to sleep.

Fanny, who was sitting on the sofa, said, "Hurry up and rest, my sister will come to replace my vigil later, and we will take a bath together before going out tomorrow morning."

"Oh, yes, that's right, you can remind Xie Mao to ask for a few more for breakfast later, and we'll pack it up and take it with us."

"Of course, the two of us will wear trench coats tomorrow; damn it, these guys are really negotiating with their vitality!"

Karen lay down on the bed and closed her eyes to sleep.

In the morning, Karen was woken up by the call, and sat up on the bed. She only slept for more than four hours. She didn't get enough sleep, so she could only take a nap in the conference hall.

The two women were wearing trench coats, their sisters were red, and Fanny was black. The clothes were bulging and stuffed with all kinds of food, making them look plump.

"Should I bring food too?" Karen asked, pointing to herself.

Xie Yao shook his head and said, "No, the two of us brought enough food for the three of us for more than three meals."

Same as yesterday, when the time was up, Karen's team escorted Derius down the stairs and into the conference hall. After all personnel were ready, the meeting began.

But the atmosphere of today's meeting is completely different from yesterday's. First, a negotiator from the Cult of Kosmos got up and read a letter with a gold border:

"At six o'clock in the morning of Wayne time, Elder Siti has led the Seventh Knights of Order to the outer periphery of the 'Messenger Space' and constructed a teleportation circle."

For a while, the audience was dead silent.

This news meant that the Cult of Kosmos had pressed the knife to the chest of the Pamires Cult. No, to be precise, the tip of the knife had pierced the flesh and stopped near the heart.

As for the secular missions, strongholds, industries, and workshops of Pamiresianism, they have long been stared at by the power of order, and they can do nothing more than a divine decree.

Karen thought in his heart, Elder Siti? Why is this name so familiar?

Soon, Karen remembered that Pu'er had a grievance with this Elder Siti, and this elder was hanged on the cross by Diss.

At this time, a representative of Pamiresi stood up and shouted: "How is it possible, how can you find the messenger space?"

Another representative also stood up and shouted: "Yeah, that's impossible, there are space countercurrents arranged around the messenger space, even the elders of the Temple of Order, even the Knights of the Order, it is impossible to ignore these terrifying countercurrents !"

The chief bishop of the York City region and Leon's grandfather--Wolfren Dierga smiled slightly and said:

"I, the God of Order, disdain to use deception to negotiate, and your connection with the church has not been interrupted. I believe you will receive the result soon.

The attitude of order is,

The process of this negotiation is really too slow, so we feel that it is necessary to push it forward gently and speed up the process.

Now,

We have already shown our attitude, and it is up to you to give your due attitude. "

Derius asked:

"Is this the attitude of the God of Order, before the negotiation is over, it has already started?"

Wo Fulun picked up the teacup, took a sip, put the lid back on, and said slowly:

"Son of God, let me remind you that Order has not taken action, at this stage, it is only preparing to do so.

As for attitude,

From the perspective of strength, I think there is nothing wrong with our attitude. "

The conference hall fell into silence again.

Karen could clearly see that the negotiators of the Pamires Cult above had lost their vigor, and the members of the Pamires Cult delegation sitting below were also downcast;

On the other hand, on the Cult of Order's side, the negotiators sitting on top were calm and composed, and the Priests of Order sitting below also had reserved smiles on their lips, and many of them were still spinning their pens.

Karen remembered what Derius said to himself last night: "Tomorrow won't be such a torment."

yes,

Even your Son of God is a person of order, is it difficult to directly obtain the location coordinates of the messenger space by avoiding the space countercurrent?

Xi Yao whispered: "It seems that I have leucorrhea from food today."

Karen noticed that the priests on the Cult of Kosmos didn't seem to bring food, which meant that they knew about it earlier than their own. Otherwise, with yesterday's experience, any normal person would choose to bring more food come here.

At this time, a member of the Pamires Cult wearing a blue robe walked into the conference hall with a letter and handed it to Derius. During the negotiation, both parties are not allowed to go out, but communication is allowed. After all, the results of the negotiations here need the approval of the real high-level officials of both parties in order to really take effect.

Derius opened the letter, and a faint ball of light wrapped the letter. This is an extremely small enchantment formation. Its existence is not for keeping secrets, but for when someone wants to probe its contents. , it will split because of its fragility, and play a "warning self-consciousness" effect.

After reading the letter, Derius's expression didn't change at all. He folded the letter and didn't even circulate it to the people around him.

The chief bishop of Walforon said: "Confirm the news, then we can start today's talks. I think today's agenda will definitely produce many useful results."

But Derius raised his hand and said, "No hurry, just wait."

The chief bishop of Walforon subconsciously glanced at Bishop Bern, who was sitting at the edge of the negotiating table.

Not long after, a priest wearing a black robe came in with a new letter and handed it over.

Walforon opened the letter, read it, and passed the letter to the people around him for circulation.

"Something seems to be wrong." Fanny said, "Is something wrong with Elder Siti?"

"With that woman's character, it's normal for something to happen," Karen said.

Fanny looked at Karen with some doubts: "How do you know that Elder Siti is a woman, we don't know the news of the elders of the temple."

"I heard it from the name."

"Then how do you know her character?"

"It was you who first guessed that something might have happened to her. I deduced her personality from your guess."

Xi Yao said: "Comrades, I feel like I don't have leucorrhea after eating today."

The weird atmosphere on the negotiating table caused the people on both sides sitting below to start chatting and whispering.

At this time, Derius said: "You should have received the news. The elder of the temple and your Seventh Knights have lost contact, right?"

Wofren said: "We still need a little time to determine whether the news is true or not."

"I don't think so, because the space coordinates of the courier that Elder Siti got was wrong.

What she and the Seventh Knights of Order entered was the cage space opened up by my teaching, a very unstable space; let's put it this way, if you take the initiative to move a few bricks, that space will collapse. "

After these words were spoken, the expressions of the priests sitting below changed one after another.

A negotiator on the order side got up and said, "Are you threatening us?"

Derius laughed,

road:

"From the perspective of strength, I am not qualified to threaten the great Order of God.

Moreover, even if Order loses a temple elder and a knight order, it will still be a behemoth that our Pamires Cult cannot resist, and the destruction of my Cult is still within the thought of Order.

But my church doesn't mind biting off a piece of Order's flesh before it is destroyed, so that the entire church circle can smell the bloody smell of Order's wound.

I negotiate with sincerity, and I hope that the order will also give me equal sincerity. "

Walforon looked at Derius,

road:

"Do you know that if the negotiation fails, you, the people next to you, and the followers of the Pamires religion sitting below will not be able to leave this hotel alive."

Derius tapped his knuckles on the table lightly, making a few crisp sounds,

Slowly said:

"All I know is that after learning the news that this negotiation has started, many believers in my church... are already preparing for their own funeral."
