Damn it, this boss really has no normal skills.

Chapter 232 I really want to give Ji Ming a hard blow...

I understand the logic, but...

As guards in the inner city, tax handlers obviously have exclusive benefits. Don’t they all go directly to your subordinate hospital for treatment?

Generally, those who come to the clinic for medical treatment are those who cannot make ends meet, are impoverished, and can only use the debt management talents of the rejuvenating generation, right?

Forget it...

Ning said yes, that is, without refuting!

Ji Ming grimaced and nodded seriously.

"Yes (instant answer)."

But Kristine was so clueless that she thought Ji Ming was moved by her sincerity.

The horse's hoof struck the ground several times, and the serious official tone that had finally settled down changed back to the shouting of a bandit leader.

"In short, I hope everyone can come to your clinic again in the future to see a doctor, buy good treatment drugs, and..."

"Eat well, drink well! Exercise! Fight bravely! And...ah, what?"

The frost giant on the side couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to whisper again.

"Oh, yes, yes! Get as many Talisman Armor as possible to arm our combatants to prevent them from being strangely hurt again!"

Ji Ming: "Uh... yes."

After that, they talked a lot about the car, but Kristen still seemed to have some unfinished thoughts.

But under the urging of the frost giant, he had to stop talking, rummaged through a lot of pockets on his body, and took out a piece of paper.

The frost giant lowered his head slightly, and a strange color flashed in his eyes hidden under the frost.

He took a deep breath but said nothing in the end.

"This is my contact information. I believe we can work together to make more efforts for peace and development in Sunshine City... no, peace and development!"

Ji Ming: "Well... yes."

Taking the business card, which was as huge as the cover of a medical diary, Ji Ming looked at the crooked handwritten address on it and couldn't speak for a long time.

Kristen glanced at the frost giant, and after making sure she had nothing to add, she left together and turned around to leave.

"I was scared to death. I thought I was going to steal my eggs..."

After touching his dizzy head, Ji Ming sat down at the table again.

Fortunately, the low pressure caused by the two giant monsters' joint appearance lasted for a long time, giving him a considerable period of free time.

But the departing Christine and the Frost Giant were no longer leisurely, but gradually accelerated their pace.

This banquet is of great significance and nothing can go wrong.

So the two of them immediately left the banquet hall and checked the surrounding security measures.

Finally, we came to the small garden behind the city lord's mansion.

The melodious sound of the dinner party no longer affects this place at all, only the distant gentle music can drift here.

At a corner where no one was around, Kristen stopped.

"I've been with you for so long, don't think I can't tell. Do you want to ask me something?"

The frost giant was silent for a moment.

"I don't understand why you are so polite to that cowardly human being. It's because he..."

"Shuang, do you know how much I want to return to the Deep Forest Kingdom!"

"what?"

Turning around, Kristen pressed her shoulders violently.

"Everyone in the city knows that I am a down-and-out nobleman with a noble surname called "Pearl", but they don't know where it comes from..."

There are only a few centaur tribes in the wilderness south of Sunshine City, and most of them are short horses.

The glory in the north is a feudal kingdom dominated by humans. Indulging in sensuality, they have long forgotten the value of force.

So Christine, who has a bit of a rough attitude, is naturally not a local. The beginning of her childhood memories is hiding in Tibet all the way.

The memories of that time are really fragmented, and the fragments of memory only contain endless pursuits and escapes.

As time goes by, the blurred fragments gradually become clear, and the originally fragmented memories begin to slowly piece together a complete picture.

Unfortunately, the official beginning of this story was not clean, but filled with blood and death - that was Sunshine City decades ago.

After his mother died, he was entrusted to the old city lord. However, the old city lord did not live for more than a few years and died suddenly at a very strange dinner party.

After this, there was an era of chaos in Sunshine City, with various forces fighting back and forth for the right to enter the city's main palace.

At that time, Sunshine City was actually quite prosperous. It was a golden city under the dark clouds. It took advantage of its favorable location on the border to reap the benefits of trade.

There is even a libretto passed down among merchants and bards.

——The northern part of the kingdom is the capital city full of art and incense, and the southern part is the sunshine full of gold and jewels.

But over a long period of time, there was no winner among everyone. Instead, the city's security gradually collapsed, and the stable business environment was gone forever.

So the "sunshine" of the past has become a wonderful irony today. It has become a paradise of crime and poverty, a den of thieves that caravans cannot avoid.

Fortunately, Christine already had some combat effectiveness at that time, so she served among multiple forces to protect herself.

Finally, she joined the Business Federation, assisted the famous profiteer Sora, and became the nominal controller of Sunshine City.

The first thing he did when he took charge of the city lord's palace was to determine the regional plan that separated the inner and outer cities.

Since then, Sunshine City has transformed from a small Gotham in another world into a magical version of cyberpunk, with a protective shield that seems to separate heaven and hell.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Orc families from the south and mountain mercenaries from the west came to Sunshine City and muddied the waters again.

If chaos was not in the interests of any party, Sunshine City might not even be able to have this poor triangular balance.

And Christine has gradually become the first person under Sola, the arrogant tax minister of the Federation of Commerce.

But she still did not give up the pursuit of her life experience, grabbing the surname "Pearl" and searching everywhere for verification, until...

"Actually, I have investigated and found out that it is a noble surname from the Deep Forest Kingdom."

"My ancestors were once a tribe in the Timoth Grassland, following the clan leader to fight against the extremely powerful lion-man Khan."

"However, in a tragic battle, we were completely defeated and were forced to join the Deep Forest Kingdom, which was planning to invade the grassland."

"But fate is really unforgiving to us. Because of the traitors, our newly promoted orc families were accused of treason and were exterminated."

"Although the truth was later revealed, all the people involved had been massacred, and in the eyes of the people of the Deep Forest, dead people are meaningless."

"So under the burying and suppression of some big nobles, the matter ended up being nothing, so that not many people remember "Pearl", an extremely insignificant third-rate noble surname..."

"But, I am still alive! I am the only descendant of the Pearl family!" Christine grabbed the frost giant's hands and gradually squeezed them tightly. If she was just an ordinary person, she would probably be crushed on the spot!

"The people of the Deep Forest only believe in force and military exploits. As long as they can have these, they can have everything!"

"I have the power. I am only thirty-eight years old this year. It is the time when my strength is rising. Level 40 is by no means my upper limit."

"But what about the battle achievements? Shuang, I am so short of people. Apart from you...and others, I have no confidants to speak of!"

"Also, my whole life has been spent in killing and blood, even if it's just the most basic... I don't understand those twists and turns!"

"So I need someone smart enough to help me communicate with nobles, and I also need powerful medical skills and equipment to help me maintain the army and attract talents, and..."

"So you need Ji Ming!?"

The frost giant suddenly interrupted her, and asked hurriedly, contrary to his usual calmness and obedience.

"Is this why you asked me to write those boastful texts and perform farcical dramas in public?"

"...Yes, don't you think he is a perfect candidate for me?"

Kristen hesitated, but still stretched her fingers.

"He is good at socializing and can maneuver between a group of greedy scum without offending anyone."

"He is good at medical skills. Even the most ordinary rejuvenating generation can save many lives on the battlefield."

"He is good at making armor. The biggest selling point of Talisman Armor is that it is resistant to strange things, but I have tried it and it is also very resistant to being slashed by swords."

The frost giant trembled his lips and asked in a low voice.

"But, he is the chosen saint of the Holy Light Religion. It is impossible for him to follow you back to the Deep Forest Kingdom."

"Then this is my opportunity to show my ability and value. If I can trick a Holy Son into apostasy, I can't imagine how the priests in the dense forest will praise me."

"However, he has a cowardly character. He always smiles at everyone he meets and has no temper at all."

"That means he is easy to control. I can easily tie him to my side and make him abandon the god of holy light and worship me as my master."

"But he looks so thin and looks like a woman in a dress."

"Isn't it just right? You may not know that the nobles in the deep forest like to carry a petite female companion with them, and the younger the better!"

"Then since I want to become a female general, I should have a similar male around me so that I can integrate into the aristocratic circle."

Speaking of this, Kristen was even a little elated.

"Oh my god, he's even perfect here. I really want to give him a hard blow...Thanks for not squeezing him to death. Hey, I should have been kinder to him in the first place!"

Listening to her praise, the unwilling Frost Giant was still trying to find faults, but his eyes suddenly widened.

"Wait a minute, what do you mean? Are you planning to...you are even planning to have sex with him!"

"I……"

Christine's excited look froze for an instant and gradually disappeared.

But in the frost giant's complicated eyes, her smile did not fade away, but became more complicated.

"Shuang, there is no such thing as love in the world of nobles. After all, it was my father who betrayed my mother in the first place."

"But...but..."

--what about me! ?

The frost giant almost gritted his teeth before swallowing these words with difficulty.

It's obvious that I have been with you the longest, so why should an inexplicable person occupy my position for no reason?

"No buts."

Kristen let go of her shoulders and rubbed them awkwardly and gently.

"For my mother, for my surname, and for the hardships I have endured for so many years, I must seek an explanation, even if it means breaking my body to pieces!"

She spoke one word at a time, as if she was making a vow, and then changed her tone.

"So, the premise of all this is that I have to find a way to take down Ji Ming first."

"Shuang, you will help me, right?"

The frost giant was silent for a long time, then raised his arm and grabbed Christine's hand tremblingly.

"……Correct."

"I'm sorry, could you please borrow it? I'm in a hurry now."

After a wave of supplies in the lounge, Ji Ming was finally resurrected with full health.

Fortunately, all the young and old people here are quite reasonable, and not all of them are as rude as Minister Ke.

——Suddenly ran out and said something to her that she couldn't understand at all. She didn't even know what she wanted to do.

But is the temperature that low today? Why do I still feel my anus... my back feels cold?

After grabbing the last batch of Reynolds whiskey tonight, Ji Ming wandered around the venue swaying his glass, but accidentally ran into a few acquaintances.

"Doctor Ji Ming, although my messenger already conveyed this to you when we talked about Fu Lujia last time in the church, I am really happy that you can become the God's Chosen..."

Although everyone looked very enthusiastic, they all took the initiative to say hello and shake hands with Ji Ming, as if they were old friends they hadn't seen for a long time.

But as the heads of the three orc tribes, Boris, Mi Yang and Galis cannot be said to be in harmony with each other, or they can only be said to be scattered.

It was clearly a conversation between four people, but the atmosphere was stiff, as if two couples were on a blind date, and they were sharing the table with another couple because of lack of space.

Looking at their fake smiles and their extremely low-spirited aura, even social cows like Ji Ming felt their scalps go numb.

It seems that this so-called Adventurer's Association is like a broken house. If you kick it, I don't know what will happen, but if you leave it alone, it will definitely collapse...

Ji Ming chatted with the frowning Boris for a few more words, presented a bottle of Rejuvenation Four Generations as a witness of friendship, and then left.

When the wine in the glass changed three times, he suddenly found that the number of waiters in the venue seemed to have increased a lot inadvertently.

——Hehe, the big one is coming!

He found a suitable viewing position in advance and waited for the old thief Sola to make his debut.

As a result, before hanging up for a few minutes, I heard a familiar voice first.

"If I hadn't heard about you from the other guests, I would have thought you didn't come to the banquet."

The one who found him was naturally Eleanor, who also received the invitation.

Today she wore a purple dress, which was a reflection of the traditional aesthetic inherited from the Holy Tree Kingdom.

Perhaps the design is a bit old-school, and it may be favored by the elves. This kind of gauze skirt that is overall simple but has complex details will not look ugly.

It's a pity that although she has some fighting strength in appearance, she is far inferior to other elves in terms of body shape.

So it was clearly a slim-fitting wrap skirt that showed off her tall figure, but she managed to wear it like a teenager's fashion catwalk.

And it’s also an environmental theme, with clothes made from waste plastic bags and CDs...
