Chapter 294 92 If All Members Mess Around Like You, How Can the Organization Carry Out Its Work?

Chapter 294 92. If all members mess around like you, how can the organization carry out its work?

When Mr. Hunter used his elusive cross-border teleportation to arrive at Osborne Tower, he saw Mason, who gave him a headache, talking happily with the captain of the Afterlife Team.

Seeing that the two of them were chatting and laughing, people who didn't know would think they were going to be sworn brothers.

By the way, when did the relationship between the K team and the Afterlife team become so good?

Ciri looked at the two people in front of her with suspicion.

She doubted whether these two guys had made some private alliances behind her back. Morgan Blackhand's mercenary character was unlikely to do things so blatantly, but considering that Mason was here, everything seemed to be explainable.

Since recruiting the K team, Mr. Hunter has developed such a mindset in unexpected situations. As long as there is something wrong, it is definitely right to find Mason first.

She even suspected that the water in her shower last night was not hot enough because Mason had tampered with her office.

"What are you talking about? You look so happy?"

Hunter Ciri stepped forward and said faintly:

"Do you suggest that I listen in?"

"Mr. Hunter is here. You must have something important to talk about. We, the big-headed soldiers filling the line, will not disturb you."

Captain Morgan stood up and laughed. He pretended to look at the military watch on his hand and said:

"I have to go and see the action at the transfer gate and support other companion teams. I heard that several teams under your command came here to join in the event. Companions have to build relationships.

You guys talk first, I'm leaving."

He said goodbye to the hunter in a friendly manner. Aunt Rogge beside him also nodded slightly, and then left quickly with Judy. The secret place that was still lively and talking about the past of Night City suddenly became quiet.

This made Mr. Hunter suspect that he was an unwelcome bad guy.

But she did nothing.

Well, so this must be all Mason Cooper's fault!

"Please sit down. What does it look like standing there?"

Mason took the initiative to stand up and pull a chair for Mr. Hunter, but the latter did not sit down but leaned against the table, crossed his arms and stared at Mason.

The Alice sword she used for disguise was "embezzled" by the bad guy Mason in the name of doing a mission. Team K did not say anything about returning it, and she did not take the initiative to ask for it.

So now she is using a black two-handed sword, which is carried behind the black robe.

Mason obviously knows this sword.

If he remembers correctly, this sword should be called "Jiwei Ai'er", which means "swallow" in Elvish, and it is also the witcher coming-of-age gift given to her by the old witcher Gay Camel.

"What? Taking my knife is not enough? Are you going to take my sword as well?"

Mason's eyes were quickly sensed by Ciri, and the hunter said unhappily:

"What did you talk about with Old A? Why did you make such a big scene? I rarely see Quint making such a big fuss. He also told me to put down everything I was doing and come here immediately to receive the things in your hands.

He even sent people to wait in the Star Castle to escort it back.

It seems that you really found something incredible."

"I told you, don't ask, don't make trouble for yourself, this thing is really hot."

Mason took out a very special box from his bag.

There is jumping yellow lightning on its surface, just like a magic lock. This is the seal of the speed force to ensure that the matrix blueprint stored in this box will not be cracked at will.

He handed the box to Ciri, who took it and threw it into her bag but did not turn around and leave. This action made Mason raise his eyebrows in surprise and said:

"Didn't you say that someone was waiting in the Star Castle? Don't send it back quickly so that your boss won't be anxious."

"I just want to talk to you for a few more words. What? Don't you want to?"

Ciri moved her neck and said:

"Regarding this support operation, you have also seen that I have sent all the forces I can use here. Although it is nominally a taboo transfer order from the superior agency, all the procedures are complete.

But this is equivalent to them taking the initiative to disclose the hidden power of the Quint Club in the Star Club. I think Old A must not have done this just because of your coercion.

I think there is a deeper meaning behind his actions."

"Oh, I understand."

Mason nodded in his chair. He looked at Ciri and said:

"Are you going to let me help you analyze it?"

Ciri did not answer.

But her silence itself is the answer.

This is the direction Mason hopes to see. He had told Ciri to discuss things with him before. Seeing that his boss really did this, Mason was naturally happy to use his brain.

He took out a bottle of Brown Owl and drank it to refresh his tired spirit, then rubbed his forehead and said to Ciri:

"This means that our "lurking" stage is over, and we must act openly next! If it is according to my idea, I will tell you that this is a sign that Quint intends to formally intervene in the power structure of the Star Society.

They asked you to lurk and hide your actions before, perhaps because they were not strong enough.

But after accepting the old Green Goblin's vote of rebels who were lurking in various institutions of the entire Hope Council, their size increased rapidly.

Speaking of which, do you know the identity of Old A in the Hope Council?"

Mason asked, Ciri hesitated for a moment, nodded and said:

"I know that he is one of the permanent directors, and he happened to be the rotating speaker recently because he was very worried about the third impact."

"This is it."

Mason nodded and said:

"I learned some inside information from the conqueror I captured before. He told me that after the third impact, the weak worlds that could be plundered at will have basically been eliminated, and the remaining ones are the hard bones.

As the pioneers and pioneers of the Council, the stars will face a very serious situation in the future, and we may suffer continued losses.

You see, I'm used to thinking about things from a dark perspective.

If I were to handle this matter

I will let other teams move and save my own people, so that in the severe situation of massive losses, those pioneers who don't want to be used as cannon fodder can only move closer to me if they want to survive.

In this way, the lower-level pioneers will gradually be controlled, and if they find ways to operate at the top, it may only take a few months to seize control of the Stars Association.

At least some control. "

Having said this, he stopped and looked at the thoughtful Ciri. After giving the latter a few seconds to sort out his thoughts, he expressed his conclusion.

"So, Old A takes this opportunity to let you and us stand upright and to express an attitude to everyone in the Stars Association.

That is to say, they have a new choice, and they can turn to us when they can't survive in the original faction.

The choice doesn't matter now.

But as long as things change, given the cunning and greedy nature of the pioneers of the Stars Society, Quint's power in the Stars Society will grow rapidly.

This is a conspiracy.

You don't have to worry about being feared by warlocks or swordsmen because of this. Unless the forces behind them want to provoke a sharp struggle at the top, they will just pretend they don't see it.

I'm not talking nonsense or deceiving you, Shirley, I have evidence. "

Mason stood up, approached Ciri, and whispered:

"Old A promised to give me the vacant A-level seat when he talked to me. He is already planning to fill the Twelve-member Council with his own people. Has he told you about this?"

Shirley was stunned for a moment, then shook her head.

She said hoarsely:

"I originally planned to give that seat to the Afterlife Team."

"Then give it to them."

Mason smiled and said:

"I have reached an agreement with Morgan Blackhand. I don't want that seat. You can make the decision to promote him to the Council of Twelve. The Afterlife Team will compensate me privately."

"Um?"

Mason's words made Ciri hesitate for a moment, and then the Grand Master of Exploration said softly:

"He said he would give it to you. Will your refusal so readily cause you trouble? Didn't you say before that they wanted to beat you in this B-level promotion mission?"

"Trouble? No, I won't be in trouble."

Mason shook his head, patted Shirley on the shoulder, and said meaningfully:

"Because this is your decision and it has nothing to do with me.

As the Exploration Master of the Star Club, you have the responsibility to consider the development of the organization. You must strictly control the most elite seats and resources and not waste them on low-level personnel like me who always like to cause trouble.

No matter from the perspective of strength, experience and loyalty, the Afterlife Team is much more suitable than the K Team.

Old A must know your plan. He may want to create a rift between our two "close comrades". I won't let him do it, so I will make it clear to you in advance.

Now it depends on whether you can withstand the pressure.

Xili, you may be used to obeying, but you should also know that the power in your hands is not given to you by Old A. Your management power over the Stars Society comes from the approval of Lord Destiny. "

Mason said thoughtfully:

"This means that you actually have a choice, and once you have a choice, you will have the capital to resist when faced with Old A's orders. The worst that can happen is that you will turn to Lord Destiny and become a loyal dog of the devil.

Of course, I'm talking about extreme cases.

But trust me!

Old A has spent so much energy and resources on you, there is no way he would fall out with you over such a trivial matter.

You used to be too good, stupid, and innocent, so you were easily manipulated by them.

You have to learn to argue with reason, and you have to learn to properly use the power in your hands. Believe me, if you use this power well, you can even make Lao A fear you. "

"I admit that your previous analysis was reasonable, but now you have begun to trick me into giving up my allies and trusting you."

Ciri shook her head.

She said to Mason:

"You should give me some time to think about it."

"I gave you time. It has been almost ten days since we last talked."

Mason shook his head and said:

"This long time has been enough for me to defeat Zhenglian twice, and you still say that you are not ready. Obviously, Ciri, you cannot make a decision based on your own thinking.

The swordsman's evaluation of you is very accurate. You are not suitable for playing tricks with them.

But I won't force you to make a choice either.

Let me give you a suggestion, my good boss, think about your goals again, clarify your goals, and compare them with what they want you to do.

And what I want you to do with me.

Use this stark comparison to determine who would be more beneficial for you to go with. Also, don’t believe the nonsense that it will be better if the system of the Association of Stars is replaced by one person in power.

This organization is based on using soul curses to maintain contact. If you have read one or two fairy tales, you should know that organizations that use this model to maintain their existence are generally big villain organizations.

We are bad guys

Really don't expect bad guys to do things that only good guys can do. "

After saying that, Mason took a step back, looked at the time on his watch, and said to Ciri:

"You should go back. If you don't go back, they will be suspicious. Bring this thing back to them, and then let it go and concentrate on your own business. "

"Yeah."

Ciri nodded, stretched out her hand to open a door leading to the Star Castle, but before stepping into it, she looked at the box sealed by the Speed ​​Force in her hand with suspicion.

She whispered that only she and Mason could hear:

"Did you really give Old A all the information he wanted?"

"Everything they should see is in there, don't worry, this is enough to satisfy them. "

Mason showed a flawless smile and said seriously:

"In addition, my B-level promotion mission is considered completed, right?"

"It still needs to be reviewed."

Ciri curled her lips under the mask and said:

"But it's just a process. This matter has alarmed the rotating chairman of the council. If the knowledge you brought back for us is really so valuable, then no one dares to block your promotion.

To be honest, even if he really breaks the rules and promotes you to an A-level member, not many people will complain.

Although everyone has their own thoughts, they are indeed for the continuation of existence.

Have you really decided to decline this seat?

Perhaps you still don't know what A-level personnel mean. Do you need me to introduce you to the benefits of A-level personnel? "

"No need, I have already understood it. "

Mason waved his hand and said in a long voice:

"The resource treasure house of Star Castle is open to all A-level personnel. Before each mission, you can borrow the rare treasures stored in the organization free of charge, and you can even apply for long-term holding.

Becoming a member of the Twelve Council means that all the resources of the Star Club will be allocated to it. Not to mention the treatment of the main and substitute players, you don't even have to pay for the maintenance of the vassal army.

All the knowledge in the secret area of ​​the Star Library can be consulted at will, and you can apply to use the "Destiny Machine" once a month.

The limit on the number of base worlds will also be lifted. As far as I know, A-level personnel can hold up to five resource worlds as bases at the same time.

It can be said that joining the Twelve Council is equivalent to buying a ticket to the "end of the world". Even if everything really perishes, A-level personnel will definitely be the last batch that can survive.

I know very well what it means to agree to Old A, Ciri. "

He looked at the eyes under the hunter's mask and said:

"But you know my situation. I still need to ensure a certain degree of covert operations. It's not time for me to show up. Compared with these readily available benefits, I cherish my friendship with you more.

We will definitely become companions.

Do you know why? "

Ciri was indeed a little moved, but still joked in a hoarse voice:

"Because I have a conscience?"

"More than that. "

Mason shrugged and said:

"I just believe that the daughter raised by Sir Geralt will never become a bad person. Finally, do me a favor and make a decision as soon as possible.

A guy like Old A will not let me be so free and ambiguous.

He has many ways to force me to really join you, and if you also want to give yourself more choices, then keeping me is equivalent to helping yourself. "

"Well, I will."

Ciri agreed, and then crossed her own crack and returned to the office of Star Castle. A man in a leather jacket and jeans was sitting on the sofa in front of her.

The latter was holding a cup of coffee and admiring the photos hung on the wall by the hunter.

"The things are back."

She said to the man in front of her:

"You should leave too. It will bother me if a conqueror commander appears in Star Castle openly. "

"I'm sorry to cause you trouble, hunter. "

The man put down his coffee cup, stood up and apologized in a gentle tone:

"It happened suddenly, there is nothing I can do about it, but before I leave, I want to go to a place. You made a cenotaph for Geralt, right?

Can I go and pay my respects?"

"No!"

Ciri refused coldly:

"Don't be hypocritical here, Steve Rogers! My father trusted you so much, but what you gave him in return was a betrayal. If it weren't for your informant..."

"That's not informing, Ciri."

The blond man in front of him sighed and put the box in his hand away properly.

He explained:

"We should serve the interests of the majority. Geralt knew what he would encounter before he decided to act. He is a real hero.

If possible, I would rather die in his place."

"But he died, and you are still alive."

Ciri pointed at the door and scolded:

"Get out, hypocritical guy, before I draw my sword!"
