891 Are You Joking?! (2)
The once s.p.a.cious square was now occupied by the army.
There was only one way in and out of the city gate, and everyone who wanted to leave the city would be interrogated. There was also a warning—Recently, the outside of the city was not peaceful. One had to be careful when leaving the city.
Normally, no one would take it to heart.
After all, those who left the city were mercenaries who had been through thick and thin.
Who didn’t know that there was danger outside the city?
However, it was different now.
The army was just short of blocking the city gate.
The inside and outside of the city were filled with legionnaires. The entire Central Province was in a state of panic. Many mercenaries who felt that they could take their time were persuaded to return.
Of course, there were also those who were not afraid of death.
Naturally, the army would not care about this.
At the same time, Lin Ye also saw Twain Flynn returning from the entrance of his dojo.
Moreover, this guy had a beautiful blonde girl with him.
In a place further away from the dojo, more than ten people from the Western Continent were looking at the dojo.
“Mr. Flynn, this is—”
When Twain Flynn saw Lin Ye come out, he couldn’t help but smile. Then, he pulled Alicia to Lin Ye’s side.
“This is my daughter, Alicia.”
Lin Ye looked at the shy and beautiful foreigner in front of him and nodded with a smile.
“h.e.l.lo.”
“Ni How…”
Well, it could be seen that this girl’s Eastern Continent language was not as good as her father’s.
There was an accent.
“Alicia, wait for me here. I have something to discuss with Dojo Master Lin.”
Alicia blushed and looked at Lin Ye, who was in front of her, then nodded.
This scene made Lin Ye a little confused.
If he remembered correctly, this was the first time he had seen this girl, right?
Why did she look at him so strangely?
With a strange feeling, Lin Ye brought Twain Flynn to the second floor of the dojo.
“What happened?”
“I want you to marry my daughter.”
“Pfft!”
Lin Ye, who had just taken a sip of water, was so shocked by these words that he spat out the water in his mouth.
“What did you say?!”
Lin Ye wiped his mouth and looked at the serious Twain Flynn in front of him. His eyes were still filled with disbelief.
“Mr. Flynn, you’re… not joking, are you?”
Looking at Lin Ye’s surprised expression, Twain Flynn shook his head.
“No.”
“Dojo Master Lin, I’ve seriously considered this matter.”
“You know the current situation of the mutated beasts. I have to consider my family.”
“No.”
Lin Ye was numb.
He looked at Twain Flynn and asked in confusion.
“Well… if you’re really worried, just let your daughter stay in Jiangzhou City. Then, she can draw a beast and go to the Beast Taming World first, right?”
“It’s safe in there!”
Twain Flynn shook his head.
“That’s not what I meant.”
“Or rather, that’s not what I want.”
Twain Flynn looked at Lin Ye and said seriously.
“I don’t have the confidence to completely withstand this crisis.”
“In the future, humans might only have a place like the Beast Taming World.”
“I, or the people of the Western Continent, need a link to the Eastern Continent. Or to you.”
“Our relationship is indeed close enough, but it’s not enough to be utilitarian.”
“Although this conflict of interest might cause many things to deteriorate and even develop in a bad direction, it can rea.s.sure the people of the Western Continent.”
Listening to Twain Flynn’s explanation, Lin Ye still found it hard to understand.
“No, they don’t believe. But don’t you believe it, Mr. Flynn?”
“We’re all humans and want to kill the mutated beasts. These two reasons are enough for me to protect all of you~”
“Moreover… Moreover, after marriage, can you guarantee the fairness of those things?”
“After all, I’m from the Eastern Continent.”
“There’s no need to sacrifice your daughter’s happiness to get an unknown promise from me, is there?”
“But we’re closer now, aren’t we?”
At this point, Twain Flynn winked at Lin Ye.
“Also, why don’t you ask Alicia’s opinion? She didn’t say that she wasn’t happy.”
“???”
Lin Ye blinked, not understanding what Twain Flynn meant.
“No, you’re kidding, right? Your daughter and I haven’t even met.”
Twain Flynn’s words made him seem like a thief.
“Actually, you have. But you might have forgotten.”
“When I attended the meeting, I brought her to Jiangzhou City.”
“Uh…”
Twain Flynn waved his hand.
“That’s not the point.”
“The point is that unless you completely ignore the people of the Western Continent, they will definitely not be at ease.”
“Don’t underestimate human infighting.”
“Even if we all lose our homes, after we move to the Beast Taming World, it probably won’t be long before we cause trouble again.”
“In this situation, if you can marry Alicia, no matter what ident.i.ty you use to manage or intervene in these disputes, it will be more suitable and convincing.”
“No, the Beast Taming World is my territory. Won’t I have all the say?”
“Ahem, that’s true, but…”
Twain Flynn was still trying to persuade Lin Ye.
Lin Ye suspected that Twain Flynn was just trying to fool him into marrying his daughter.
However, this was completely different from Little Lily.
Little Lily had no status.
But if it was a marriage alliance, what about Qin Zhilan?
But Twain Flynn’s bluff was not without reason.
After all, his ident.i.ty was there.
If he had a better relationship with him, it would be easier for him to unify the beasts and counterattack the outside world from the Beast Taming World after failure.
“So—”
“Dojo Master Lin, you can discuss this with Miss Qin. I think she will understand.”
Well, before coming this morning, Twain Flynn had already gone to her house to look for her.
Of course, he definitely did not say anything harsh after coming to the door. Instead, it was about the same as what he had just said.
On the other hand, Qin Zhilan did not show any signs of objection.
Otherwise, why would Twain Flynn look for Lin Ye directly?
Hearing Twain Flynn take the initiative to talk about Qin Zhilan, Lin Ye glanced at the old man.
“Don’t tell me you’ve already gone looking for her?”
Twain Flynn nodded.
“Mr. Flynn, you are really—”
Lin Ye didn’t know what to say.
This guy was just short of acting first and reporting later. He had directly sent his daughter to his bed.
“Let me ask her first.”
“Yes, there’s no hurry. I’ll let Alicia learn the language here with you first. When you go to the Western Continent, she’ll be your guide.”
Hearing Twain Flynn’s words, Lin Ye gave him a big middle finger.
“I’ll ask Alicia. If she doesn’t like it, we’ll forget about this.”
Twain Flynn nodded.
He was not worried about his daughter at all.
After all, he didn’t think any girl would reject someone like Lin Ye.
Be it power or age, he was the best choice.
“What about those people?”
“Them? They’re here to take a look at the situation in Jiangzhou City and learn.”
“Although I think it might be a little late.”
Twain Flynn smiled.
“You know, yesterday I urgently asked someone to go out and take a look.”
“There are probably more than three digits of high-level mutated beasts around the Holy City.”
Lin Ye was speechless.
“So many?!”
Those who could be called high-level mutated beasts were all Level 7 and Level 8 existences.
With this number, even if there were no Level 9 mutated beasts inside, it was enough to make the Holy City suffer.
After all, the number of high-level mutants in the Holy City was only half of that.
They were completely at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.
Even if there were other weapons to make up for it, what if this number wasn’t the final number?
“That’s right…”
“Why else would I be in such a hurry to send my daughter over?”
