Electromagnetic Tyrant Chapter 338

Chapter 336 The Princess' Invitation

 (Chapter 333 released)

Ji Xinghuo raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

With Princess Sophia's power, it is too easy to find someone in Ivangrad. Disguise can hide it from ordinary people's eyes, but it cannot hide it from the ubiquitous facial recognition system.

 Neither he nor Manying can speak the language of the New Roman Empire. Today, when traveling in Ivangrad, we relied on the real-time translation function of sunglasses.

Princess Sophia in front of her speaks Asian language. Although she has some accent, she speaks it very proficiently. It is obvious that she has spent a lot of effort to master this language.

 In the New Roman Empire, there were not many people who could speak the Asian language.

 Sofia also made a ladylike gesture when speaking.

Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying looked at each other, took off their sunglasses, stood up and replied, "Your Highness, Princess."

“Do you two mind if I sit down?” Sophia asked politely.

 “Please feel free to do so.”

Ji Xinghuo made a gesture to sit down.

"Mr. Ji, you are much more handsome than expected." Sophia admired her eyes, "No wonder you are worthy of the beautiful sword fairy."

Sophia was also looking at Ji Xinghuo.

 Li Xuan was under greater pressure, so after only one day, he raised the price of the lottery to 150 billion and quickly signed the betting contract.

As a citizen of the AsiPacific Community, of course I don't need to care about this set of etiquette. I asked directly: “Your Highness, why did you come to us?”

Only then did the surrounding guests realize that the couple sitting next to them were actually the number one and number two on the ladder. They were all looking at the two with their eyes full of curiosity. They were whispering to their friends, and some were taking them. Take out your phone and take pictures.

"Princess, please come back." Ji Xinghuo shook his head.

 At home and abroad, the legendary king.

"Thank you." A legendary bodyguard next to Sophia immediately pulled out a chair for her. She thanked him softly before sitting down.

"Oh?" Ji Xinghuo laughed, "Does the princess actually think favorably of me?"

 Sophia's eyes brightened slightly, "1,500 pieces."

Ji Xinghuo naturally noticed it.

“1,800 pieces.” Sophia immediately raised the price.

"I like hearing this." Ji Xinghuo laughed, "The princess is more beautiful than she looks in the video." Sophia was well-maintained. A woman in her fifties looked like she was in her twenties.

"Oh? How much did you pay?" Ji Xinghuo immediately became interested and sat up straight.

 After the contract was signed and made public, those who wanted an absolute hit temporarily stopped.

Every move of this princess is elegant, she has good etiquette and is worthy of her origin.

 “Hmph.” Zhao Manying, who had been silent until now, snorted lightly, showing dissatisfaction.

To this end, Li Xuan also specially issued an announcement not to accept any "absolute hit" transactions.

"Please forgive me for being rude, Mr. Ji." Sophia quickly apologized, "But I don't want to deceive you two."

 Actually, he heard about it too.

Many legends and kings have been communicating with Li Xuan, hoping to transfer the Starfall variant after winning the duel, but Li Xuan refused.

Ji Xinghuo sneered, "Then why did you come to me?"

The New Roman Empire was a feudal dynasty. From the emperor down, there were nobles at all levels. Class differences were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. People across the country paid great attention to each other's status in social interactions and had detailed etiquette rules.

The price I paid for "Absolute Hit" from Void Lingke was 1,300 ether crystals. The price difference of 200 crystals was not enough.

 “No comment.” Ji Xinghuo responded angrily.

 Unless the other party can offer a price that is too high for you to refuse.

Ji Xinghuo shook his head, "The princess should know about the duel bet between Li Xuan and I. Please forgive me for not breaking the contract."

His attitude was very casual, completely lacking in the humility one would expect when facing an imperial princess, causing one of the bodyguards to frown.

"Although I think the probability of Mr. Ji winning is very low, less than 1%, I am willing to give it a try for this 1% possibility." Sophia said sincerely, "If Mr. Ji wins the duel, I don't know how to deal with the absolute hit. ?”

 Money on earth is of little use, but ether crystals are different. If the other party's bid is high enough, I don't mind being a second-rate dealer.

There are also people with hands and eyes who can reach the sky. They even sent messages through Li Hui and found the head of state, but they were blocked by the head of state.

 After the Absolute Hit was exposed, it attracted many powerful aliens from around the world.

She glanced at a bodyguard. The legend snapped his fingers, releasing an invisible barrier that separated the table from the surrounding sounds.

"Of course." Sophia nodded lightly, staring at Ji Xinghuo with her icy blue eyes, and said, "I don't want you to break the contract. What I want to talk to you about is whether you are willing to use 'Absolute Hit' after the duel." Give me?"

 Sofia paused for a moment, then whispered: "I can use the ether crystal to buy Mr. Ji's alien species, which will definitely satisfy you."

Whether it is earth currency or ether crystal, it will eventually be converted into power. If you are absolutely destined not to fuse, you can give it to Manying.

Sophia's lips raised as if she were smiling.

Ji Xinghuo understood.

Ji Xinghuo was still indifferent.

 They are all waiting for the result of the duel.

 “I'm here for the 'absolute hit'.” Sophia didn't mince words either.

“2,000 pieces!” Sophia quoted again, “Ether crystals cannot be made on earth, and it is difficult to collect them in the star realm. This is the upper limit I can give.”

Ji Xinghuo looked at Zhao Manying opposite, she just blinked lightly.

 The two of them have a good rapport.

 Zhao Manying judged that what Princess Sophia said was true through the Eye of Truth, and conveyed it to Ji Xinghuo through her eyes.

Ji Xinghuo's heart moved slightly. 2,000 ether crystals were just enough to buy Apocalypse's first-star weapon "Song of the Spiritual String" from Void Lingke. It was a bow and arrow specially built for psychic energy. Its lethality and range were extremely powerful.

However, after buying the Song of Spiritual Strings, I didn't have much ether crystal left, only enough for Manying and her second brother to practice at the ether research institute for less than two years.

Ji Xinghuo thought for a while and said, "Let me think about it again."

 Neither agree nor reject.

The initiative is in her own hands. Maybe the imperial princess can come up with more ether crystals if she goes back to show off to the Iron Emperor.

"Please think about it and tell me." Sophia looked disappointed, but she didn't bid any more.

 She is eager for "absolute hit", but she is not taken advantage of.

The princess did not leave, but instead asked: "I heard, Mr. Ji, your first career template is the ranger?"

 “That's right.” Ji Xinghuo nodded.

His experiences on earth have long been revealed. He passed the physical fitness test and chose the "Thousand Dexterous Hands", and later practiced in the archery hall. These things can be found on the Internet. It is not a secret.

"I am also a ranger." Princess Sophia flashed the gun on her waist, which was an "iron hammer". Rangers usually replace bows and arrows with firearms on earth. "But unlike Mr. Ji, I later became both a ranger and a ranger." Cultivate 'Ice Blade' and advance to 'Frost Archer'."

Ji Xinghuo suddenly realized, "No wonder the princess wants an absolute hit."

The advanced profession of Frost Archer has both melee and long-range attacks, as well as strong field control capabilities.

 When Sophia flew over just now, she also showed "Wings of Frost", which is a variant of "Feathers of the Winged Man".

  Judging from the fluctuations of etheric energy, she is only legendary for a period of time.

But she is ranked 235th on the legend list. Judging from this, her ability system is by no means as simple as frost shooter, and her strength far exceeds her rank. But this is not surprising.

As an imperial princess, Sophia has the full support of the Iron Emperor, which is equivalent to the national power of the New Roman Empire. She will not be short of general training resources and alien species.

“I have loved shooting since I was a child. I am obsessed with all aspects of archery, including bows, arrows, firearms, and throwing, and practice diligently.”

Princess Sophia said: "With your Majesty's permission, every year I invite guests with excellent archery skills to the Royal Hunting Ground for exchanges on archery skills. Many of them are world-renowned rangers, stalkers, and young talents from all over the world."

“At the time of the International Invitational Tournament and the Global Marathon, I take this opportunity to invite all distinguished guests to participate in the Royal Hunting on the 23rd.”

 She looked at Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying, "It would be my greatest honor if Mr. Ji and Ms. Jianxian could take the time to come."

Ji Xinghuo did not agree immediately.

 The International Invitational Tournament will determine the champion on the 22nd, and the Global Marathon will start on the 25th.

 Princess Sophia is very good at timing.

“Is it just an exchange of shooting skills?” Ji Xinghuo asked.

"Of course." Sophia replied, "You can think of it as a leisure trip, where you can get to know talents from all over the world. Many people are eager to meet Mr. Ji."

Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying looked at each other and said, "It's hard to refuse the princess's kindness, so I won't bother you."

"How is it possible?" Sophia was very happy, "If you two can come, you are the most distinguished guests."

 She stood up, took out two invitations, and solemnly handed them to Ji Xinghuo's hands.

 “I won't disturb your romantic dinner.” After saying that, Sophia flew away with her bodyguard.

 After the princess left, the guests around her kept watching.

Just when they were almost done eating, Ji Xinghuo took Zhao Manying's hand and left the restaurant together for a walk on the beach.

 The two of them visited the night view of Ivangrad and returned to the hotel at around 9pm.

While lingering in the bedroom of the suite for a moment, there was a knock on the door.

 “Who is it?”

Ji Xinghuo hugged Zhao Manying in his arms. He scanned the electromagnetic induction and found that it was Shi Renzhong standing outside the door. He was a little annoyed, so he wrapped a bath towel around his waist and went to open the door, "What's the matter with Mr. Shi?"

Shi Renzhong saw the shirtless Ji Xinghuo with obvious hickeys on his neck, and immediately knew what was going on in the room.

 The smile on his face suddenly froze, and he was stunned for half a second before forcing a smile.

“Starfire, when did you arrive?”

"Afternoon." Ji Xinghuo said with an angry look on his face, "Mr. Shi, you don't know that I'm here, why do you come to see Manying at this time?"

"No one told me." Shi Renzhong explained quickly, "The competition is tomorrow. I just thought of a tactic and wanted to discuss it with Manying. I called her but didn't answer the phone, so I came over. I'm sorry to disturb you. You guys."

Ji Xinghuo didn't want to hear such a poor excuse, nor did he want to know whether Shi Renzhong did it on purpose. "We are very busy. If there is anything else, we will talk about it tomorrow."

 After saying that, he closed the door.

boom.

Shi Renzhong looked at the closed door in front of him, his expression immediately darkened, his eyes filled with anger, he clenched his fists and made a creaking sound, wanting to break the door and rush in.

However, when he thought that the man inside was Ji Xinghuo, he hesitated again.

Standing outside the door for a few seconds, Shi Renzhong calmed down, turned and walked away.

in the room.

Ji Xinghuo was fully aware of Shi Renzhong's behavior. He sneered and asked, "Manying, when you go to away games, you always stay in a hotel. He also knocks on the door in the middle of the night to look for you?"

  “A few times.”

Zhao Manying's face turned red. "But he always brought his teammates here before. I don't know what he is thinking today."

"This guy is asking for trouble." Ji Xinghuo couldn't figure it out. "Shi Daoyuan is dead. Does he think he can successfully inherit the group? Shi Hongyi is still young, and it is easy to have more than a dozen sons."

 Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered.

"Has there been any change in Shi Renzhong after Shi Daoyuan died?" Ji Xinghuo asked, "How did he react to you entering the Ether Research Institute?"

"No response." Zhao Manying thought carefully, "but there are rumors in the club that Shi Renzhong intends to retire after the end of this season and take over the position of vice president of the group to gain more power and resources and become a legend."

 "Haha..." Ji Xinghuo smiled contemptuously.

Shi Renzhong's strength was gained by relying on the huge resources of the Shi family, and he was not the best in terms of talent.

In the past two years, the Emperor Star team has won several championships in a row and is full of honors, but his ranking on the ladder has not improved but retreated.

 Originally ranked 145th on the ladder, but now it has fallen beyond 180th.

 When he was just a high-level alien, he could defeat Shi Renzhong. Now that he is number one in the ladder, he will soon become a legend.

Even if Shi Renzhong is promoted to legend, there is no threat.

There is no need to take action yourself.

On Manying alone, after fused with the Eye of Truth, ten Shi Renzhong combined are no match for her.

"I have a hunch." Zhao Manying looked thoughtful, "Shi Hongyi may not be able to help but attack me."

Ji Xinghuo said in a deep voice: "How do you say it?"

Zhao Manying put on her pajamas and said seriously: "You gave me the Eye of Truth. I didn't tell anyone, but my strength improved too much. Although I kept my hands on the field and didn't use my full strength, in daily training, Coaches and teammates can tell.”

“This is a good thing for the team and the club. They can win another championship. Shi Renzhong also seemed very happy, but he was obviously pretending.”

Ji Xinghuo's eyes flashed.

 He still remembered that Manying had said long ago that Shi Renzhong was a performer.

It was difficult to tell Shi Renzhong's true emotions before, but after Manying had the eyes of reality, no matter how Shi Renzhong disguised them, she could not hide them.

“Do you think Shi Renzhong knew about your father before?” Ji Xinghuo asked.

"She shouldn't know about it." Zhao Manman recalled, "You mean, Shi Hongyi told him about this recently?"

Ji Xinghuo nodded, "That's why he came to knock on the door on purpose just now."

This mentality is very complicated and distorted.

He has some illusions about Zhao Manying and doesn't want to give up, but he also knows that she is his family's enemy, so he wants to see the painful reality with his own eyes and give up completely, so that he can let go of the past.

 “Is this a man?” Zhao Manying was stunned for a while.

"You have to be careful." Ji Xinghuo reminded, "He still had illusions about you before. The higher his expectations, the more vicious he will be in the future, and what he doesn't get will be destroyed."

 “I understand.” Zhao Manying took a deep breath.

Ji Xinghuo said decisively: "Otherwise you just break the contract, don't fulfill the contract for the remaining two seasons, and just pay compensation to the Emperor Star Club."

 If the bet goes well, the compensation is only a small sum.

"It's not about money. I want to surpass 'Freelander' and become the most successful competitive alien in history. This is a promise to my fans." Zhao Manying hesitated, "Let me think about it again."

 “Well, you decide for yourself.”

Ji Xinghuo never wanted to force her to make any changes, "Let's not talk about this anymore, let's continue what we haven't done yet, hehehehe..."
