After returning to the cabin, Ying sat cross-legged in front of a table. On the table were fragrant tea and various tea brewing utensils.
'Tea ceremony is popular in the Elf World?'
Aoki thought to himself.
Ying gestured for Aoki to sit in front of him.
Aoki sat down with his legs crossed obediently. Although he didn't show any fear when talking to Ying, that was because he already knew what Ying was thinking.
However, it was a different situation now, so Aoki hid all his thoughts and expressions.
When facing a Heavenly King Stage powerhouse, he still had to be respectful.
After a long silence, Ying fiddled with the various tea utensils in front of him. Only two of his fingers were wearing a leather glove, but Aoki found that all of his fingers could move.
It must be the scientists in the Rocket Team who installed mechanical prosthetics for him.
"I heard that you went to the Fengyuan District?" Ying broke the silence first, but he did not look at Aoki at all. He was fiddling with the tea utensils in his hands.
"Yes." Aoki nodded in response.
Finally, Ying finished brewing the tea. He sniffed it and slowly took a sip.
He nodded in satisfaction and pushed another cup of tea in front of Aoki.
He did not know if he was satisfied with the tea or Aoki's choice of going to the Fengyuan District.
"What do you think of the Fengyuan District?" Ying asked again.
"It's complicated, there are many factions, the Alliance … does not have much say." Aoki looked at the tea in front of him and did not dare to touch it.
Tea brewed by a Heavenly King Stage powerhouse, how could it be so delicious?
Ying nodded again and changed the topic. "Do you have confidence in this trial?"
He knew the situation in the Fengyuan District better than Aoki. Aoki only gave a rough description.
"I'll do my best. I don't know the situation of the opponents at the moment."
If it was only the opponents on the trial island, Aoki might not be 100%, but 90% was not a problem. However, for the people sent by the officers, Aoki did not have any standards in mind.
The captain from before should be the subordinate of one of the cadres involved.
Obviously, it was also because Aoki had disappeared from the Rocket Team's sight. After going to Feng Yuan, they were not sure about Aoki's strength.
Therefore, he sent a person with good strength to probe Aoki's background. If there was a chance, he would take the opportunity to deal with Aoki.
He didn't know much about Aoki's strength, so he wanted to see what was going on, which coincided with what the cadre wanted to do.
That was the reason for the previous scene.
However, Aoki didn't even give him a chance to attack. He directly pressed him to the ground.
Other than a Ghost Stone, he didn't release any sprites. That's right, he had only touched the tip of the iceberg of Aoki.
However, from this Ghost Stone, he could still see something. He just didn't know if this Ghost Stone represented Aoki's strength.
Aoki remembered that Ying also had a Geng Gui. At that time, the Geng Gui should only be in the second or third echelon of Ying's sprites. He didn't know how strong it was now.
"This time, there are a total of four cadres and five quasi-cadre level captains involved. You are the only one without a background." Ying took a sip of tea and said to Aoki with a smile.
Four Heavenly King level powerhouses wanted to play chess, five quasi-heavenly king level powerhouses wanted to jump out of the chessboard, and countless powerhouses were paying attention to all the movements here. If there was even the slightest change, they would pounce like hyenas and tear off a piece of meat from anyone.
This was the survival mode of the Rocket Team.
"The people of the five captains have all been sent to the trial island? Will the cadres' subordinates join later? "Aoki asked.
There were a total of three people on the trial island that Aoki remembered. Guja, who had a brother who was a senior captain. There was also a girl called Jasmine, who was the leader of all the girls on the island. There was also the strongest lone ranger, Yeric.
However, Ying shook his head and said in a mocking tone, "Do you think there are only nine people involved in this? There are no less than twenty people who are really involved. These nine people are just relatively strong.
Of the people you saw on the trial island, only one of them is one of these nine people. The rest are just ordinary subordinates of the senior captains. "
"Hmph, do you really think that this is something that just anyone can get involved? Those quasi-cadre captains are still okay. Even if they lose, it won't be too bad. However, those ordinary senior captains, if they lose, they will directly fall into the abyss. Do you think it's so easy to challenge cadres? "
Ying was actually also a member of the cadres.
A Heavenly King stage powerhouse had the pride of a Heavenly King. Those quasi-heavenly kings who were only a step away from becoming a Heavenly King were still okay. However, those arrogant and ordinary senior captains would not even know how they died.
A battle between a lion and a wolf, how could any random person participate?
Hearing Ying's words, Aoki's pupils shrank. So there was only one quasi-cadre's subordinate on the trial island?
Guja? Jasmine? Or Yeric? Or someone else?
The biggest possibility was still Guja!
Ying did not say this, and Aoki would not ask.
What he was really afraid of were the subordinates that were trained by the cadres.
"The person you've offended this time is just an ordinary brigade leader. There's a powerful cadre above him. So far, you've already offended a cadre and a quasi-cadre. How do you feel about that?"
Halfway through being serious, Ying started to joke with Aoki again.
Hearing this, Aoki could only smile bitterly.
Whether it was a Heavenly King or a peak quasi-heavenly king, they were not people that he could provoke.
Even in his previous life, when he saw these people, he could only retreat and not dare to provoke them.
"Lord, please don't make fun of me." Aoki said.
Actually, Aoki wasn't without a backer right now. Kage was his biggest backer in the Rocket Squad, and if he had to pull some strings, Na Zi could also be considered half a backer.
After all, Na Zi and Ying's relationship was not ordinary.
"Hahahaha …"
Ying laughed again. He was usually serious, but today, he laughed many times.
"You know, I have blocked many people for you. However, you should also understand that when a person loses his value, there will no longer be any protection. People like this in the Rocket Team are not rare."
"I understand. Those who are weak can only be protected by the strong if they show their value. Wagging your tail and begging is not a long-term solution. What you need to do is to grow as quickly as possible."
Aoki understood what Ying meant.
He was someone that Ying took in halfway and was not trained from the beginning. Therefore, his trust level would not be very high. He had to follow Ying's footsteps closely and show enough value to continue to be protected and get some time to breathe.
This was Ying's warning to Aoki.
It was to prevent him from becoming arrogant after going out for a period of time.
