Chapter 132 The most demanding condition, never using skill points?

In the council hall of Silent City, the deputy city lord led a high-level meeting to discuss the solution to today's conflict.

Xu Jiang, a young man in his 20s, before the incident, they did not even know that this person existed.

The city lord is seriously injured and wild beasts are overtaking the city. They have many things to worry about and have no time to pay attention to these rookies.

I didn't expect that such a mistake would cause things to become big.

They still can't figure out how a newcomer can have such a big influence?

Yongan's entire withdrawal is a huge blow to the reputation of Silent City.

For the development of all mankind, under the premise of ensuring fairness and justice, each city will share a portion of its spiritual domain quota. This is a contract that has been signed long ago.

If you provide some conveniences to your family in private, no one will say anything, but if you accept the benefits and target the trialists from other cities, that would be very unethical.

This matter basically has nothing to do, because there are more than just Xu Jiang from the mechanical department participating in the competition. You are only targeting Xu Jiang. Even a blind person can understand this.

It's okay to meet other forces. After all, in other people's territory, considering the rewards of the trial, the most you can do is condemn them if you encounter difficulties, and finally give in to each other and find a suitable plan to coexist peacefully.

But Xu Jiang had a bad temper and broke up with each other whenever they disagreed, which made the matter reach a point of no return.

And, this is just the beginning of the trouble.

"The news just came that the magic lamp star has disconnected the trading channel. Why are those big-headed monsters not so efficient in their usual delivery?"

The deputy city leader touched his crew cut and felt the urge to go on strike. Why did he keep having problems during the month he was on duty?

To say that Shen Deng Clan's products are very cost-effective, they can only be considered average.

In a city as technologically advanced as Yong'an, the rune products of the Shendeng tribe are the icing on the cake.

But for the Silent City, they are indispensable.

Because electronic technology equipment will be affected by the magnetic storm weather here and cannot be used.

On the other hand, rune technology is not affected.

Sewage, water sources, energy storage, offices, etc., many key locations will be operated using more convenient rune technology.

No pollution, zero emissions, rune technology is very suitable for Silent City. Now they are in trouble, how to solve it?

"Hmph! I'm just saying, it's better to ask for help from others than to ask for help yourself. It's better to rely on others' skills than to be self-reliant."

The speaker was a bearded middle-aged man in red robe. He was the head of the Magic Matrix Research and Development Department. He vowed to completely break away from dependence on rune technology and lead the Silent City into a new era.

Look at this guy's proud look.

"Have you made any new progress in your magic matrix?" the deputy city leader asked excitedly.

"Of course." The middle-aged man raised an index finger.

"The scientific research department is the best in the world?"

"The progress has been advanced by 1%." The middle-aged man patted his chest and confirmed: "This progress is still due to insufficient research and development funds. If the funds are doubled, the efficiency will be greatly improved."

Although it feels unreliable, the deputy city lord still has a trace of expectation: "If it is doubled, how long will it take to develop the finished product?"

"About 140 years, I tell you! By then, our magic matrix will be able to complete the automatic sewage discharge function."

"...Okay, that's it. From now on, the funding for the Demon Research Department will be halved. What's the point of the United Front Work Department?"

The deputy city lord looked at the head of the United Front Work Department.

This man nodded, took out the city defense map of Silent City, and laid it out on the table.

"What are you doing?"

"According to my estimation, after killing Xu Jiang and Pace, we need to face three attacks."

"???Wait, why do you want to kill them? I didn't say we wanted to start a war!"

"No war? If we don't start a war, what do you suggest I do?" the head of the United Front Work Department frowned and complained, put away the map again, sat down and wandered around.

The deputy city lord covered his head in despair.

Why does Silent City implement the city lord's autocratic system? It's because the subordinates are unreliable!

According to the principle of the strong ascending to the throne, those sitting here are all masters among masters, and most of the masters in Silent City are trained to pursue the laws of nature and follow their hearts.

To put it simply, it means that you are too lazy to think and are stubborn.

Is it okay to let them fight and resolve diplomatic disputes? Even a few Silent Cities are not enough to kill them.

The deputy city lord slapped the table with dissatisfaction and shouted loudly: "Listen to what you said! Depending on you, Silent City will be over."

Everyone looked over, and with this tone, could it be that they had come up with a solution?

The deputy city leader tapped the table with his fingers and said: "Since you don't have a good idea, then we won't vote this time, and we will do it according to my method."

"what way?"

"Leave this matter to the Lord of the City."

When the city lord was mentioned, everyone nodded in agreement.

Undecided about something? Then leave it to the city lord to handle it. It's really embarrassing for them to come here to discuss matters and vote these days.

"But with the current situation of the city lord, is it appropriate to meet an outsider? After all, Xu Jiang is from Yong'an City, can he be trusted?"

"It should be credible." The deputy city lord had some brains and analyzed: "Pace knows about this and has probably told Xu Jiang by now."

…

"What! The city lord of Silent City has lost all his fighting power?" Xu Jiang asked in disbelief.

"Yes, she is not injured, but all her strength comes from the elemental elves. Now she cannot control it. She stays in the city lord's mansion and dare not come out."

No wonder, it took a month for the news of the attack on Silent City to spread. I am afraid that the city lord suppressed it deliberately.

The strongest combat force representing the Silent City has now become a useless person. If word spreads, it may attract more enemies who are watching, and then the Silent City will be even more troublesome.

The best way is to use the ambiguous answer of injury to prevent the enemy from guessing the specific situation and then seek help from a trustworthy person.

"Can such important information be disclosed to outsiders casually?"

"Of course not. I promised them that I won't talk nonsense to outsiders."

"But you're telling me now?"

"You are not an outsider. I am speaking very seriously, not nonsense."

Very good, I'll let you and Baozi make friends when you have time. If rumors spread later, you two can form a team and go together.

"By the way, Brother Pace, are you saying that if you give up doing business with Silent City in the future, will you suffer a lot of losses?"

"No, no, the home planet implements a five-day-off-week system. The production capacity is not much, and it will be the same to anyone we sell it to."

This big head is really open-minded, or maybe this is the characteristic of all the Shenlan people - comfort.

There was a lot of noise outside, but Pace brought Xu Jiang to his new villa as a guest.

Weirdly, he was invited to watch the dancers he had carefully cultivated - two female mammoths.

Two elephants were dancing wildly in the yard, and Pace was applauding loudly. What was so good about this dance? Look at the two elephants flipping spoons against each other.

Really unable to appreciate it, Xu Jiang could only change the subject: "Brother Pace, I see people are bragging about tickets to Silent Hill. Is that place really that good?"

Xu Jiang heard Uncle Lei's explanation that in Silent Hill, he could secretly learn advanced skills from other professions.

But even so, it's not like the tickets are so priceless.

This time, Pace nodded very appreciatively.

"Speaking of Silent Hill, that place is really good. Let's not talk about secretly learning skills. According to our clan's records, there is a secret hidden in that place, but it's a pity that no one can reach it."

"No one can achieve it? Why are the conditions so harsh?"

"That is: I have never used any skill points since I changed my job."

Xu Jiang:???

That's it?
