W was overwhelmed by Theon, and Ling didn't think it was any surprise. If Theon couldn't break it, then he wasn't Theon either.

Zero admitted generously: "I need your knowledge and talents, Mr. Theon."

"I understand." Theon lit a cigar for himself and handed one to Zero.

He shook his head and said that he was not interested in this kind of rough "cigarette" with zero interest. Theon didn't care, and put the cigar back in his pocket. He followed up and said, "This is a good product, sent by the little guy from the Helburn family. It would be a shame if you didn't try it." The latest novel Baidu search" "

Zero fist tightened slightly, although it was just a very plain sentence, but the meaning was very obvious. With Theon's ability, it is not surprising that the Helburn family will be solicited, and he said with zero hesitation: "You"

"No. Although the Helburn family lacks a housekeeper who can still handle various situations, I refused their invitation." Theon's face looked shaky under the glow of the cigar. He looked at Zero and said with deep meaning: "Trust me, Zero. The conditions offered by the Helburn family are definitely better than you can imagine. If it were before, I shouldn't refuse. But now, I am no longer the Theon before. When Remut was buried in the hands of the monsters, the Theon was already dead. Now I am just trying to survive to prevent Pella's sacrifice in vain. "The latest novel Baidu search""

Taking a deep breath, Theon looked at the dim base plate and sighed: "It's so hard to live, zero. Especially if you live aimlessly like me, can you imagine it? I have to drink every night. I could only fall asleep with the last bottle of spirits. When I woke up every morning, I always thought that I was still in Remtree. That fire not only ruined me and Pera, but also completely destroyed my dreams. Zero How can a person who has no dreams help you who are building an ideal blueprint."

"I can't do it because I'm afraid that all the efforts will end, and I still won't be able to escape a war." Looking at Zero, Theon said lightly.

For the first time, Zero felt the pain in this man's heart, and the despair he couldn't help himself. Standing in front of him now, Theon, who was still chatting and laughing in the VIP room just now, was just a body, but his remaining instinct. As Theon said, the real him, his soul died as early as when Remute fell.

But

"Can you trust me once!" Zero looked at Theon seriously: "I know it's not easy. I can feel the pain and despair in your heart. Because I am like Mr. Theon, I have lost everything. I love it. People, people I care about, my friends, my comrades-in-arms. Those who were once good, because of the cruelty of this world, they left. Or helpless, perhaps tragic, but I can not keep them. All this because of mine The power is not strong enough. So from then on, I hope to be strong and hope to change the world. Whether it is naive or arrogant, some dreams are always done for them; some fights are not allowed to escape. But I It’s impossible for one person to do this. I need partners like Feng and Berion. And you, Mr. Theon, even if you lend me your abilities, I will build that dream country in return. !"

On the **** of the cigar, the flames flickered slightly, like the chaotic thoughts in Theon's heart.

After a moment of silence, Theon whispered, "Very touching, zero."

He shook his head and said: "I know your ideals and your ambitions. I am also glad that you can feel my pain and helplessness, but these are not enough, zero. I have lost everything, and I don't want to change anything. Money. , I think the income from this position is enough to squander the rest of my life; Quan, although I am not a big person in this city, many big people are willing to make friends with me. As long as I want to, I can get ten times more powerful power than I am now. So, what can you give me, zero?"

This is a zero unanswerable question, but also a realistic question.

Theon continued: "If I'm twenty years younger, maybe I will promise you. But I'm no longer young. Pella gave me the remaining life. I can't just use it to squander it. So zero , If you want me to work for you, you must give me a reason to do so!"

Zero was silent, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I can't find it."

Theon laughed, patted his shoulder and said, "That's the only way to do it first, and when you find it, you can come to me again. But before that, I can share with you my secrets. Just treat it as a gift from me for the opening of your company."

"Please speak." Ling asked with an open mind.

As the two talked, they walked towards the entrance and strolled on the main street of the base. Theon asked, "What do you think of Douglas?"

Zero Yizheng replied casually: "The superior, no air, and approachable. I get a lot of help from him. Although he has his own purpose, in general, I am very grateful for everything he has done for me. ."

Theon let out a chuckle and said, "It's like a kind elder, right?"

Zero shrugged and said, "It's roughly the same."

"Even you think so, then I can only say that Glass's image is very successful." Theon said lightly, but there was something in the words.

Ling frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

"No, I don't mean anything else. Douglas really cultivated you very carefully, and he was not malicious to you. There is no doubt about it. I just want to remind you that what you see is not all of Douglas. Zero, you Remember, every big person can become a big person because they have ambition." Theon solemnly said: "Ambition, desire, these things are human instincts. But ambition also has high and low points. For example, in the wilderness, a refugee who can only have a slice of bread a day but hopes to eat ten places of bread a day is also ambition. For Douglas, his ambition is more than just an Asgart. This is the big man and the small man. The difference between Douglas is now investing in you, and the investment requires a return, zero."

Theon suddenly smiled and said, "So, don't blind your heart with temporary goodwill. There is no free lunch in the world, zero. One day, Douglas will ask you for something in return. Once you can't get it, or don't want to get it. At that time, you will find that you don't know this old man that much."

Zero silence, Theon's words had a huge shock to him. Just like the man said, he had never thought about these things before, but now that Theon had broken them, Zero realized that he was indeed too immature in many places.

For example, it is easy to believe in people, even if he thinks he is already quite careful. Of course, Theon didn't mean to be careful with Douglas, after all, it is beneficial and harmless to Zero now. At least for the foreseeable one or two years, Douglas will not do anything threatening to Zero.

But in the future, who knows?

Nothing is constant, and in things that are constantly changing, interests always become the fastest.

With Theon's reminder, Zero suddenly realized that not all investments are worth accepting. Before accepting, he must consider whether he can get a return.

Among them, there is an invisible measuring stick, whose name is benefit.

"Thank you, Mr. Theon," said Zero Heartfelt.

Theon nodded in satisfaction and said, "It seems that you are not an idiot with muscles in your head. This is good, so you should also be able to understand what I am going to say next."

"Don't take yourself too high, zero. Never do this, even if you are already above ten thousand people, keep a humble heart." Theon said lightly.

Ling's eyes widened. There were too many meanings in these words. Ling seemed to catch it, but it seemed that he didn't understand anything. Theon's low voice sounded in his ears.

"Humility is not shameful. It allows you to see yourself clearly and will not do stupid things beyond your ability. It may not help you succeed, but it can at least reduce your mistakes, or even make them. As long as you don’t Make a mistake, then you are equal to half of your success. Keep your humility, you can see the wider world. Lower your body, and people will be willing to interact with you. But" Theon emphasized: "Humility does not mean cowardice. It is a kind of self-discipline and restraint. The objects of humility should be your elders, lovers, friends, and partners. As for the enemies, naturally you don’t need to give them any affection."

"Thunder should be used to repay anyone who violates our state. This is the iron rule of the new era. Otherwise, how to build your own prestige!" Theon replied, "Look at Douglas and the others. How did these big men get their prestige? That is. They exchanged the blood with their hands, but they never doubted themselves because they firmly believed that they were right. On the road of pursuing ideals, there is never a smooth way to go, even if the ideal destination can bring everyone A happy country. But the foundation of this country is also cushioned with blood and bones. If you don’t have the belief that you have to go on even if you want to, then it’s better to give up as soon as possible.”

Zero's mood can't be calm for a long time.

He finally came into contact with the spiritual world of the superior.

Just like a saying that scholars in the old age always said, ideals are beautiful, and the process is cruel. No matter how beautiful the ideal is, it cannot be paved with flowers and praise. Especially if you want to overthrow the existing world like Zero, when the interests of some people are inevitably shaken, the opposition and resistance will only become more intense.

It was not that he had never thought about this problem before, but it was not as clear and direct as Theon said now. Theon was not a warrior, but his words were like a sharp sword, tearing apart the peace of the camouflage, and putting the **** facts in front of zero. That huge impact cannot be expressed in words in case.

After a while, Zero took a deep breath and said, "Teached."

The wilderness is silent, and at the same time it is lively. Especially at night, the radiation intensity is much lower than that during the day, which is the time for a large number of abnormal creatures to forage and even mate (mating).

Every year, every month, every day. The environment of this planet is getting worse and worse. Even if it mutates, some abnormal beasts must be racially extinct every time. This is the natural elimination law, far more cruel and realistic than any law.

Therefore, mutant organisms can only continue to evolve to evolve genes that adapt to harsh environments.

The fastest way to evolve is to multiply. The two sides of mating (mating) will bury the evolved genes deeply in the cells of the next generation while exercising vigorously. When the newborn baby is born, these genes will continue to be released, resulting in visible or invisible mutations. Of course, these mutations may sometimes be wrong, or even fatal, then the outcome is already predictable and naturally eliminated by the world.

In the evolution of all things, the pace of human beings can be said to be the slowest. Even if there is an outlier like the capable person in their huge race, compared to the huge base of ordinary people, this kind of anomaly is just a spray in the sea. No matter how big the waves are, it is no better than a tsunami, but a tsunami cannot change the fundamentals of the ocean.

But human beings can still survive in such an environment, although it is very difficult to live, it is an indisputable fact.

The wisdom that benefits mankind, and even the technology that has been transformed from Zhihui.

Technology changes lives, this is not empty talk.

Although purification technology only began to appear twenty years ago, even now, this technology is not necessarily so smart. At least until it is enough to reverse the entire earth's environment, such purification technology is not smart. However, its appearance has given mankind the lowest guarantee of survival.

Just like now, three modified black cars drove through the wilderness. In terms of style, they are no different from old cars. But in fact, cars from materials to operating systems to built-in purification devices are all the crystallization of new-age technology.

With them, even the most ordinary humans can also move in the wilderness.

Of course, they are expensive and not affordable for ordinary people.

Charles has absolutely no concerns in this regard.

Although his family is not comparable to the three giants of Asgart, it is also one of the core affiliated families of the Helburn family. Charles is the heir in the family, he is young and gold. The golden hair comparable to Apollo perfectly interprets the definition of aristocracy. As for strength, as a seventh-order fighter master, Charles has confidence in his fists.

Those who dared to question were already defeated by his iron fist.

exception? This word has never appeared in Charles's dictionary.

"Master, the zero company is coming soon."

Charles, who was thinking about which woman to find for the night after going home after some things, suddenly heard what the driver said. Charles nodded carelessly, but the words "Zero Point" appeared in his heart.

Charles really couldn't understand why his father wanted to let himself participate in the party of this small company. Of course, Charles knew that the boss of this new company was called Zero, as if he was an elite fighter of Doomhammer. Behind Zero, Douglas and Beyonce of the Black Rose were backing.

But that's it, Douglas or Black Rose. They have made a lot of investments, and many people have been funded by them to become new nobles. But what about it, the world of nobles cannot start by relying solely on combat power or financial resources. More, it takes time to accumulate.

Just like a good wine, the longer the vintage, the more luscious the taste.

It's just that the father's order is not to be disobeyed, so Charles comes. For him, this is just an easy job. Because the father's order is very simple: let them not be able to do even one single business!

reason? Charles did understand. Obviously, it was aimed at Zero Point Technology, and it was actually dealing with the Black Rose family.

As for Douglas' anger, the Helburn family will naturally take care of it. Although Douglas is the highest authority in Asgart, the Helburn family is the head of the three giants. If you want to come to this upper rank, you will not offend the Helburn family for a little upstart. Then again, the Charles family would not be so arrogant without the instructions of the Helburn family.

It's just this kind of work, as Charles wants, just ask a family confidant or any cousin to come forward. Even asking him as the heir in line to do this, Charles felt that his father was too shameless.

"A local nobleman." Charles sneered.

After a while, the car drove into the base area. Charles got out of the car and entered the reception hall under the protection of several guards. The cocktail party has come to an end, only a few young men and women are still in the hall, and most of them are still in the weapons exhibition room behind the hall.

Some young people in the hall recognized Charles, but Charles didn't even give them a polite greeting. Desperate to complete the task assigned by his father as soon as possible, Charles almost arrogantly walked through the hall and walked straight to the exhibition room with his guard. As a result, several men who reached out to Charles to express a friendly greeting, stretched out half of their hands for a while and didn't know where to send them, all of them turned green with anger.

This scene ~lightnovelpub.net~ just fell into the eyes of Linghe Theon.

At this moment, Zero was about to send Theon away. They didn't want to attract the attention of others, so they walked past the corner of the hall. At the same time, the hall was dimly lit and no one noticed it.

Looking at the domineering Charles, Theon smiled slightly: "Look, the troublemaker is here."

Nodded, but didn't pay much attention to it. Still walking slowly with Theon towards the exit, as for Charles, naturally Feng and Belion were standing with them. As Theon said before, the ideal road cannot be a smooth road. Since the invitations submitted when the company was opened, the two giants Helburn and Planning, and even other families affiliated with them, were categorically rejected. Zero knew their attitude and position, and that troubles like this would definitely happen. .

Zero does not know much about politics. But after Theon's slight touch just now, Zero probably already knew what the situation was right now.

The Hall of Valor has built the prototype of Asgart, but the perfection and strength of this great city cannot be separated from the contributions of the three giants and other nobles. From another aspect, the setting up of the council is precisely that he cannot ignore the performance of the voices of these nobles. m
