Chapter 696 Ruined Guild
The Mutual Aid Guild of Handicraftsmen is located at the southernmost end of the city of Rome. It is a magical building that you can never forget after seeing it. The dilapidated brick walls that leak everywhere tell the poverty of the union. The lawn at the door that looks like it has not been taken care of for a long time is overgrown in the lawn.
Unlike Piran Port, it is not affected by the cold airflow. The sun shines brightly on the messy grassland. Piles of sparrows are rumbling through the grass for undiscovered grass seeds, looking as gloomy as a long-desolate haunted house.
A branch of the clear Tiber River happened to pass through the guild gate. An ancient bridge made of moss-covered gray bricks spanned across from above. A little squirrel squatted on the bridge pier as if no one was present, knocking on the pine cones. His shiny little eyes looked at Chu Jianchen and his group strangely, not afraid of being alive.
"It's here." Weiha, who was in charge of leading the way, looked as if someone owed him millions and didn't pay it back: "Old Pete is in the guild. You just need to go in and find him. There is no detection equipment with an identity code nearby, but it's only a few hundred meters. I can warn you not to underestimate the security and anti-counterfeiting measures here just because we didn't trigger the alarm. In order to prevent the Fallen Admiral from sneaking in, the defense here is not leaking, and you must not be careless."
"Oh, I understand." Chu Jianchen agreed obediently, turned his head to look at Mikoto's V gesture, and a smile appeared on his face.
What Viha didn't know was that along the way, at least more than 300 monitoring machines had briefly failed under the electromagnetic interference of Mikoto. Otherwise, they would have been discovered the moment they walked out of the secret base. More than fifteen monitoring machines were secretly arranged opposite the main entrance of the secret base, closely monitoring the movements of 2 kilometers around.
No wonder those patrol girls were so relieved about the abandoned military port. With these spies, even if someone sneaked in, they would be quickly caught. Thinking of this, Chu Jianchen even more suspected that the so-called secret base was actually just a trap deliberately set up by the Roman officials, and his methods were indecent.
"Okay, since I've been sent here, I'll leave first. Old Pete may not like to see me. You guys go in and discuss with him."
Seeing that Chu Jianchen had already stepped onto the moss-covered brick bridge, Viha felt relieved. After waved his hand, he turned around and walked towards the secluded street. He had other things to do when he came to Rome, and he had no time to waste on this big guy who pretended to be a newbie.
"Hey, Senior Viha, are you leaving now?" Chu Jianchen turned around with a pure face, looking at Viha who was still heroic even though his face was a little gray, and said regretfully: "I originally wanted to have a good dinner with you in the evening, which is a pity."
"It's a pity that your sister!" Weiha's expression remained unchanged, but he cursed Chu Jianchen half-death in his heart: "I ate four thousand resources for a lunch. The wallet that was a little surplus was suddenly deflated, especially the little one named Ilia, who had to comment on the same dish and the beauty who served the dish the most. I really don't know how so many things were stuffed into their unrolled belly! And after eating, there was no sign of bulging. I'm sorry for the many resources I have given!"
"No, my boss hates others being late the most. Baiyu and I have to run back quickly after finishing our business in Rome, otherwise it would be terrifying that woman would get angry."
Although it was just a reason to use it as a shield, when Viha thought of the unparalleled beauty, but his sharp eyes always made the frost beauty who he liked, who could not even be able to do, his body suddenly stiffened, and a large piece of cold sweat appeared on his back, as if the beautiful boss was standing in front of him.
"I finally found a sucker who could quarrel, but I didn't expect him to run away so soon."
Chu Jianchen looked at Wei Ha who was rushing away as if he was chased by something. He was full of regret. After smacking his lips, he turned around and looked at Mikoto, who was standing behind him with a smile, holding the snacks that Wei Ha had paid for to buy. He said angrily: "You guys, don't you understand the principle of slowly pulling the line when fishing? He ate the supply of the entire fleet in one meal. Look, it scared others to escape immediately, right?"
"Admiral, we consumed a lot when we got ashore, so we ate a little more, which is no big deal, right? And, isn't this the result you want to see?"
Ilia, who had changed into a purple dress, smiled and stuffed a whole skewer into her mouth. She swung it hard, and the golden bamboo stick soaked in oil pulled out of her tiny lips, drew a beautiful arc in the air, and fell into the trash can on the side accurately: "But, admiral, do you have a grudge against this senior? Why do you have to knock on his bamboo robbery so persistently?"
Chu Jianchen did not answer Ilia's question, and patted her little head with a smile, turned around and walked straight to the union gate that looked almost collapsed.
"I have no grudge against him, but he actually dares to get into my Kashima. Don't blame me. For the sake of life, the admiral can tolerate anything. There are only two things that cannot be tolerated. One is that the ship was inhumanely exposed, and the other is that Lao Wang next door poached, and Viha has taken all of them. I'm making him a fool of noon, and justice comes from the sky! Humph, I thought I didn't know that he secretly went to catch Kashima while I was going to negotiate with the harbor officials? Just buy a lesson. I can use my boat at will, but you can't touch it!"
Pushing open the crooked door, people can't help but worry about whether it will collapse, and what comes into view is a spacious and bright hall with air permeability.
Just at a glance, the hall was empty and could not even see a single person.
"What's the situation? Where are people?"
Chu Jianchen scratched his head in confusion, and suddenly heard a fierce quarrel coming from the corner.
"The Blood Brotherhood wants to build control of the factory? Yes! But you must be prepared to be beaten and kicked out by us! Now, pack up your things and get out immediately. I don't want to see you again!"
"Old Pete, you stupid guy with a stiff head like a stone! The Blood Brotherhood is not something you, a little guild who even has a ragged base, can compete with. I'm waiting for you to come to your door crying and beg me for help. You stubborn stupid donkey!"
The fierce quarrel stopped in an instant. As soon as Chu Jianchen turned his gaze to the corner of the wall where the vision was blocked by several large wardrobes, a round old man walked out with a black password box, threw it on the ground with a snap, holding his head with his hands in his chest, and looked at Chu Jianchen at a 45-degree angle.
"Old Pete, you are so irrational, you will regret it." The old man walked out immediately afterwards was a gentle and gentle young man. The close-fitting casual suit on him gave him a hint of intellectual aura. However, now he looked angry and barely suppressed his anger and said, "I walked out of the gate without looking back, and didn't even look at the code box that was thrown to the ground."
"Hehe, he is right, you will regret it soon. Old Pete, your era is over, and now it is the world of mass replica ships. Could it be that you think that your proud skills can compare to the production line of the elf? Wake up, your ancient inlay technology has long been outdated, and now it is the era of industry. If you don't know how to adapt to the times, you can only be crushed into the soil by the wheels of the times!"
Following the young man was a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a decent tuxedo, a precious gold watch in his pocket, and a pair of exquisitely crafted gold glasses on his nose. He looked as implicit and elegant as a British gentleman, but the words he spoke from his mouth were nothing to do with the gentleman, giving people a strong sense of incongruity.
"Oh, I really didn't expect that it would be hard for you to have guests to come to the union this week, and new faces would come to you?"
Seeing Chu Jianchen and his group appear, a strange feeling appeared all over his body and glanced at him. A refraction flashed across the lenses with golden silk glasses. I wonder if it was an illusion. When the man looked over, Chu Jianchen suddenly felt like he was staring at by a poisonous snake lurking in the grass, and his brows couldn't help but frowned.
"Huh?" The middle-aged man suddenly screamed in surprise, and his eyes hidden behind the lens showed a complex and unexplained look. He looked at Chu Jianchen deeply, picked up the code box that was thrown to the ground by the old man without saying a word, walked past Chu Jianchen without looking back, and disappeared behind the more ragged door.
