Yang Hai ran towards Wanghai Cliff with great enthusiasm, which contrasted with his happiness. The atmosphere of the Mantofield family at this moment was too great to deal with. The losses in financial and material resources were small matters, but the impact of this battle on confidence could not be compensated by any means.

In order to find a solution, the Mantofield family convened a think tank to discuss with their staff.

The star anise cat looked absent-mindedly at the communicator, and kept sending messages from it - all of them were information in online games.

Looking at poseidon revealing his whereabouts unscrupulously. Even if the old opponent's poseidon's countermeasures, he could at least understand some of Yang Hai's thoughts at this time. The octagonal cat sighed. Of course, he didn't want to let his opponent put pressure on the Secret Dragon Blood Guard like this. If he did not restrict the performance of poseidon and let this terrifying guy let go, who knows what he could do in the end?

But the octagonal cat felt deeply willing to kill the thief and was powerless to turn the world back. At this moment, it was already a clay-sculpted Bodhisattva, so it would be better to find a way to overcome the level in front of you first.

He suddenly remembered that more than a month ago, when he took Ande to Dark Guild to fight for the pass to the Misty Abyss, poseidon said to him: "The professor is indeed very courageous. He is obviously not a person in the game world, but he dares to go against Dark. He even stepped into the plate of the Mantofield family, and admires him."

At that time, the Octagon Cat was under the eaves. The pass was sought by Dark, so he had to bow his head. He didn't take poseidon's words to heart, thinking that his old rival was just looking for opportunities to mock him. But now when he thought about it carefully, the Octagon Cat couldn't help but smile bitterly. Obviously, the poseidon was not a person who was bored to take advantage of such a verbal advantage. Perhaps the words were out of the way, that he predicted that he would work for the Mantofield family and would not have a good end sooner or later.

The star anise cat could sense the bad gazes coming from around him. On the surface, he still looked calm and gentle, but his bitterness in his heart was like drinking water, and he knew the cold and warmth. Today's scene was definitely not easy. The family affairs were too complicated. Except for Jack and Christina, there were a few of the other people from the Mantofield family who had talked and laughed with him. They really trusted themselves... The star anise cat didn't have the confidence to say even one.

Judging from the three-court trial today... Maybe the Century Guild will change.

The patriarch Butz brought a few confidants into the room. The empty conference room, which was originally whispering, immediately became quiet. Everyone looked at the nose and the heart, and they were unwilling to be the first to be the one who led the topic today. Although the patriarch Butz always looked like a polite and genius, the people who could sit in this conference room today were either internal members of the Mantofield family. Or the think tanks and aides who had been in this family for a long time were all well versed in the way of self-protection, and they all understood what kind of face was hidden under the warm veil of this big family. They had borrowed this face more than once to eliminate dissidents and fight for enemies. They would of course not be deceived by the seemingly gentle expression of the patriarch Butz.

Butz seemed to be unable to tolerate the lead-made air. He coughed twice and said, "This time, we lost to dark again."

Although Butz used declarative sentences, the words in the sentence accurately expressed the emotions of the patriarch at this moment.

Butz looked at the still silent people and took a breath a little slowed down: "Today we are summoning everyone, mainly to discuss two things. The first thing is to summarize the reasons for losing, and the second thing is to discuss future countermeasures and the direction of the development of the century guild."

Butz said it very obscurely, but the star anise cat still understood what he meant.

The first thing is to find a scapegoat for this failure; the second thing is to discuss how to redistribute power.

The octagonal cat could feel the fiery gazes projected by the people around him. He knew very well that there were too many people in this family who didn't want him to continue sitting in this position. At this moment, the octagonal cat, who had always been calm, felt angry for no reason. If poseidon was treated like this in Dark, would he definitely lose to him? But he knew very well that the extra emotions would not help solve the problem, so the octagonal cat did not continue to be angry, but continued to close his eyes and rest.

"Everyone will give your comments," said Butz.

Jack was very reluctant to be the first to be the first, but he knew very well that his uncle was not a very patient person. If everyone didn't speak, he would probably still call the professor. After spending several months with the octagonal cat, Jack admired the professor very much. He was very sure that the octagonal cat was the most suitable IEC for century. If anyone else came to compete with poseidon, he would probably have been beaten by poseidon long ago.

Instead of watching the professor get unlucky, it is better to attract the firepower to yourself first.

So Jack said, "This time, we are actually sure to win, but poseidon is too powerful, so we will fail."

Jack is telling the truth, but he is telling the truth that most people don’t want to hear, so he gets countless disdainful eyes.

Butz may not have no idea about this, but he cannot express his opinion or has other ideas in his heart, so he remained silent.

Finally someone couldn't help but stand up and refute Jack: "Is poseidon really too powerful? I think it's because of the overall situation problem when we were planning this time. If we just use the loopholes of the Dark Chamber of Commerce and hold them back for two days, we can fight a beautiful turnaround battle steadily. Unfortunately, we are greedy for success and attempt to destroy the Dark Chamber of Commerce at once. We will chase it too deeply and get the opportunity to counterattack and count it."

Jack said angrily: "Of course you have to seize the great opportunity to destroy the Dark Chamber of Commerce. Do you still show mercy to the enemy?"

"That's why I said that there is a problem with the overall situation." The member of the think tank who refuted Jack just now said without changing his face: "This is not an opportunity at all. Poseidon has the ability to solve us. But some people failed to see this. When making plans, they tried to achieve their goals and ended up in a bleak situation. Why can't they make a more stable move?"

Be more stable? Jack was so angry that he couldn't speak. The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly. If he had more than 80% of the chances, he didn't dare to gamble, then what else could he do and what society would he do? Just hide in his mother's arms and sipping breasts. Jack resisted and didn't say this ridicule, because facts were better than words, and the octagonal cat was defeated. No matter how sharp Jack's words were, he was just a mere verbal advantage.

What made Jack feel even more powerless was that although he jumped out on his own initiative, it was obvious that most people regard the star anise cat as their main target today. The firepower was not dispersed at all because of his appearance - no one took him seriously at all.

"That's right, you can't think that you have a good chance of winning, right?"

"This time we didn't lose to dark, we lost completely in our own hands."

"We are so proud of being praised by the outside world. This kind of pride is undesirable."

Someone took the lead in firing, and all kinds of sarcastic words came up. An sneer appeared on the corner of the mouth of the octagonal cat. He never took these people seriously. These people are not people with a spirit of self-criticism. The "we" they said may refer to themselves?

Amid the scattered slaughter, Butz finally spoke. He looked at the octagonal cat that had been silent and said, "Professor, please tell me too?"

The octagonal cat looked up and looked directly at Butz's eyes. Of course, the octagonal cat knew what to do at this time. He had become a sperm. He preserved his strength in the struggle for power and refused to retreat. He had seen many such things. The octagonal cat also knew that his face was not too thin. Of course, there was no psychological pressure to do such things. He knew what Butz was waiting for. As long as he said a few soft words and sweared to be loyal to the Mantofield family, the Boucher patriarch would not be unable to see his own value. He really sent those bullshit guys to replace him as IEC, and the possibility of he was safely overcoming the difficulties was as high as 80%.

However, at this moment, the octagonal cats had already prepared for the humiliation and could not say anything.

The former octagonal cat was disdainful to Xiang Yu. In his opinion, everyone said that Xiang Yu was brave enough to the world. However, true courage is the courage to face failure. Just like Goujian, who endured humiliation for eighteen years, finally got avenge and became a generation of overlords.

He has been accustomed to Goujianism for so many years.

He never felt that it would be so difficult to say a soft word.

The star anise cat thought sadly. It seemed that it was really sad today - why didn’t I just want to bow my head?

But there seemed to be a voice roaring in his heart, low and weak, but it was like a night drum and morning bell, deafening.

Why bow your head?

Why give up?

Is the game over? Can't I complete the shocking reversal that poseidon can complete?

Why!

I pushed poseidon into a situation where there was no way out!

I opened up Thunder Cloud City as the base of the Secret Dragon Blood Guard under the shadow of the dark chamber of commerce!

I saved the dying century guild with my own strength!

I press poseidon firmly on the igp list and can't turn it over!

I admit that I lost to him in this matter, but so what? Who hasn't lost? Now the Secret Dragon Blood Guard is ahead of the igp of the Dragon Clan Guardian 5,000!

Besides, this war is not over again!

A real player will never give up on the game before the game is over. Now I want to admit my failure?

You dream!

The star anise cat smiled bitterly in his heart. It seemed that it was very sad to pass this level today. King Nuo Tian said that the game can easily change a person. This is probably what it means. However, he did not regret it. He never wanted to obey his inner voice like today.

So in Butz's meaningful gaze, the octagonal cat sneered and said, "Class leader. I don't know what to say. This time we are defeated by a non-war battle. No one can predict this. If this is called a poor overall view, then please raise your hands if you think you have a good overall view."

No one could have expected that a defeated general would be so tough, and Butz was also very surprised.

No one spoke for a while.

"I can circle around, but at this time I don't want to circle around." The octagonal cat glanced at the audience with a sharp look: "I can put my words here. My contract with the Mantofield family will not end until October, and it was already explained when signing the contract. The right to appoint is in the hands of the family. If anyone of you wants to be in my current position, you can try to convince the patriarch. If Mr. Butz also thinks that I am indeed not suitable for the IEC of Century, then I am willing to let you. But please allow me to remind everyone who is excited. My poor view of the overall situation is reminding me that poseidon is ready to start a full counterattack. I am looking forward to what my next candidate can do."

The words of the star anise cat silenced everyone.

The octagonal cat firmly controls the Century Guild. The so-called water is clear and there is no fish. The octagonal cat is old. It is not that it cannot tolerate any turbidity, but it is even more impossible for him to let the Century Guild become a pool of mud. Therefore, the octagonal cat has cut off many people's wealth. They plan to overturn the octagonal cat, but they have never thought about how to recover the position of the IEC. At this moment, the ic in the Century Guild is a hot potato. Some people don't want to touch it, and some people are so hungry that they want to touch it. Butz will not allow him to do anything randomly. The position of the IEC is indeed a big problem - even an idiot will not jump out at this time. He said with confidence: "I'll fight against poseidon."

The octagonal cat knew that his words would leave a very bad impression on Butz - being arrogant. To put it bluntly, his current approach is similar to the self-respecting of raising bandits. Although his approaches are very different, his nature is not different. But now he doesn't care about so much.

Anyway, I am the only one who can fight poseidon now. Do you dare to chase me off from the position of iec? You can do it!

Sure enough, Butz's face changed slightly.

"Professor, you don't have to be so angry. If you lose to Dark, everyone feels uncomfortable. Everyone makes suggestions because of the family's big plans, not targeting anyone." A person in the conference room suddenly said.

The star anise cat was stunned. He recognized the person who spoke, named Bell, who was one of the members of the Mantofield family's staff. The reason why the star anise cat had an impression of this person was because Jack had specially reminded him to be careful of this person, because although Bell did not have serious skills, he had "rich experience" in political struggles and "high-profile achievements". Such villains are the most troublesome.

The sun really hit the west. At such a sensitive moment, with this guy's temperament, he must be able to hide if he can. Why did he suddenly speak today?

In the eyes of the star anise cat, people like Bell are simply the best among waste. He never sees the battle b in 2b. Such a person will be pressed to death by touching his little fingers.

As soon as Bell opened his mouth, the heart of the octagonal cat jumped, and then Bell said: "Professor, your approach is indeed not considered in this matter."

"Oh, what are your opinions?" asked the star anise cat with some contempt.

"Although you did achieve brilliant results in the Mantofield family, you should still realize that there is a clear gap in strength between you and poseidon, don't you deny this?" Bell shrugged: "Since that's the case, you shouldn't be greedy for meritoriousness and everyone's criticism just now was not completely unreasonable. On this point, even if you don't lack the overall view, you must have a hot mind for a while."

"What does it mean that there is a significant gap in strength between me and poseidon? Is Thunder Cloud City fake? Is the results on the IGP list fake? Am I already lost to him? Do we have no hope of victory now?" asked the Octagonal Cat sternly.

"Isn't this what I want to say, just take the IEC level." Bell's eyes suddenly became deeper: "You and Poseidon are now the world-famous top IECs, but Mr. Octagon Cat should know the situation of Dark back then, right? Dark's reputation in the game industry is so bad, with a lot of scumbags in it, and his reputation is much worse than that of the Century Guild. But what about now? Poseidon and you are both IEC. Dark Guild has now been praised by the world as the most promising guild, but Century's reputation is still the same, and he is called a lackey of the aristocratic family. Doesn't this exactly explain the gap in strength between you and Poseidon? Only by humbly seeing the advantages of our opponents can we make the most reasonable plan. If we turn a blind eye to powerful enemies, then today's failure will happen again sooner or later."

The star anise cat almost stopped heartbroken. He knew that Bell's level was definitely not something he could say. These words were extremely insulting, not only sowed the gradually tense relationship between him and the patriarch Butz without trace, but also implying that he was using the Mantofield family for profit.

These words are heart-wrenching, and the octagonal cat is keen to react, but for a moment it is too difficult to deal with it.

In an instant, there was a vague guess in the heart of the star anise cat and smiled bitterly.

A good means, really a good means.

In terms of the comprehensiveness of an IEC, the octagonal cat is indeed not Yang Hai's opponent. The octagonal cat is good at playing games, but Yang Hai is not inferior to him in the game. He is also proficient in all other aspects. The octagonal cat is silent, but Bell obviously hasn't finished speaking.

"And, I think, sometimes Professor Anise Cat seems a bit arbitrary?"

The star anise cat was so energetic that he answered Bell's words with his nose.

"I am bluntly speaking. Professor, I admire your professional level very much. But sometimes, you should also think of the old saying, one fence has three stakes, one hero has three gangs, everyone here, I think most people hope to help you and have expressed this wish to you, but you all refused. Yes, the situation in the Century Guild is getting better, but there will always be decision-making mistakes in one-management. Even if poseidon plays a one-management in the Dark Guild, isn't it almost defeated by you? Want to avoid decision-making

It is essential to make mistakes and brainstorm. When you mention the Century Guild, you would think of the Mantofield family before, but now you will only think of you, Professor." Bell's after glance, he glanced at the head of the Butz patriarch's eyebrows slightly raised, and a smile flashed across his eyes: "I think there will be big problems sooner or later, but Professor, you still don't accept the help of your colleagues. We are also very helpless. We are not blaming you, professor, you are very strong, and you are willing to assist you, with you as the main point, but you also want to give everyone a chance to speak."

poseidon, you are so clever, another provocation that makes me have nothing to say. The octagonal cat smiled and shook his head, staring at Bell coldly, trying to see what else he could say.

"And, Professor, what you said to the patriarch today also made me feel bad." Bell shrugged and completely tore his face: "You just made a clear attitude - only I can fight poseidon. If you don't need me, just wait for the Century Guild to fail. This time the war between you and poseidon, please allow me to say a heart-wrenching word. Although the war between you and poseidon has failed this time, and

Make countless enemies for the family, but you have fully demonstrated your superb IEC level. The whole world knows that you are a world-class IEC that is qualified to fight against the boss of poseidon. If the Secret Dragon Blood Guard in the end, it is as you said. The reason is not that you are too weak, but that poseidon is too strong. You can leave it all, but the enemies you offend and the resources spent by the family must be bought by the family. This is not fair to the Mantofield family."

The conference room was extremely quiet, and only a dozen people could breathe.

The star anise cat is too lazy to defend himself. The reason why the alienation plan is vicious is that even if Butz knows that Bell is sowing discord, he will still get rid of him. No matter what he says at this time, he will seem angry and attempt to retaliate, so all he can do is to be stern and remain silent.

"Let's just stop here for today's meeting." Butz hesitated for a moment, but still did not make a decision on the spot.

Everyone left the scene one after another, and the Octagonal Cat was the first to go out just like leaving the Paris Court that day. Although the patriarch had not made a decision yet, the Octagonal Cat had already understood that even if it was the most optimistic result, a large part of its voice in the Century Guild would be separated.

What if it is the most pessimistic result?

The star anise cat really doesn't want to think about that possibility.
Chapter completed!
