Chapter 569: I want them all!

~9 min read 1,717 words

Because he didn't know what the giant dragons on the high platform were arguing about, Li Ang naturally couldn't rashly agree.

As his voice fell, the conference hall gradually became quiet, leaving only the vaguely heard breathing sounds and dragon wing friction sounds.

Mazres narrowed his eyes slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed in his deep-red pupils; he didn't expect that the little guy below would refuse so decisively.

Just as the atmosphere at the scene became increasingly stiff, Li Ang asked somewhat helplessly: "Lord Mazres said let me choose... but I have to know what to choose, right?"

"..."

Hearing this, Mazres was taken aback, and then a hint of embarrassment couldn't help but appear on that huge dragon face.

Just now, he had been busy arguing with Randolph about which side the little guy below was more like, and had forgotten to tell him his own purpose.

After a brief silence, Mazres coughed lightly, then spoke with feigned majesty: "Since you have already come to [Aeon Logistics], naturally you need to choose a department to join."

"I've heard Seth talk about your affairs; compared to the Bahamut branch, the Tiamat branch is clearly more suitable for you."

Hearing this, Li Ang couldn't help but look at the old Gem Dragon beside him.

If he remembered correctly, when he arrived at the [Aeon Logistics] territory, the other party had said they wouldn't force him to join the group; why was the real situation somewhat different?

However, at this moment, Seth was also full of confusion.

He hadn't deceived Li Ang; [Aeon Logistics] indeed wouldn't force the giant dragons in the star sectors under their subordinates to join themselves, so he also didn't know why Mazres would say these words.

Seeing him blank-faced, Li Ang immediately realized that the reason this situation appeared was highly likely inseparable from the dragon blood in his body.

But it was also true; after all, there was no sword sect that would watch a natural sword body wander outside.

Although the kinship of chromatic dragons was relatively thin, the giant dragons in [Aeon Logistics] clearly couldn't be measured by common sense.

What's more, even without chromatic dragons, there were also dragon species such as metal dragons and gem dragons on the high platform, and in the end, there was a very high probability that this situation would appear.

After thinking through the key points, Li Ang couldn't help but fall into thought.

Before entering the High School DxD world, he actually didn't intend to join [Aeon Logistics].

But after obtaining the Abyss-series profession, this option didn't seem impossible to consider.

Although he didn't know if the next stage of changing professions for [Abyss Composite Great Demon] had any connection with the Abyss of the DND world, it could ultimately be considered a path.

Plus the dragon blood that might be required for subsequent professions of [Black Emperor], as well as the limit-breaking mentioned by [Star Shepherd] that also needed to be queried in [Aeon Logistics], the necessity of joining this cosmic giant enterprise had greatly increased.

Just as Li Ang was carefully thinking about the pros and cons of joining [Aeon Logistics], Randolph suddenly spoke: "You don't need to pay attention to Mazres's words; if you really don't want to join the group, it doesn't matter."

"After all, we are all giant dragons, and I can understand that you don't like being bound."

"Rest assured, if Mazres has any dissatisfaction, we will solve it for you."

Except for a few dragon species with naturally strong curiosity, the vast majority of giant dragons liked to eat and drink their fill and sleep on shiny things; giant dragons like those in [Aeon Logistics] who were diligent were the minority.

Although many giant dragons among them owed huge debts because of laziness, and then had to deliver express to pay off loans.

Hearing this Brass Dragon's words, Mazres's dragon face immediately turned black, then he said with slight dissatisfaction: "Randolph, you're just harming him by doing this; after all, only in the group can his talent be fully cultivated."

"You are still so arrogant, Mazres."

Randolph shook his head slightly, clearly not agreeing with the Red Dragon's words.

The reason was also very simple; the little guy below had been able to reach the fifth energy level so quickly without the group's support, which already proved that he could grow on his own without external help.

And according to the intelligence reported by Seth, there was clearly a huge family line behind this little guy, it was just unknown why it had been slow to appear.

"Tsk."

For Randolph's accusation, Mazres couldn't help but spit out a small ball of flame, too lazy to argue.

Just as the two dragons were arguing, Li Ang had already thought through the pros and cons.

Besides the professional benefits mentioned earlier, becoming a glorious cosmic drifter would undoubtedly greatly improve the usage efficiency of [Console Player] and [Traveler], not to mention that this cosmic giant enterprise could provide help when he finished causing trouble and prepared to run away.

Plus, Morabis Star didn't need him to look after it for the time being, so thinking about it this way, it seemed there was only the choice of joining [Aeon Logistics].

However, although he had decided to join this cosmic giant enterprise, which department to choose still needed careful consideration.

As the functions of various departments in [Aeon Logistics] flashed through his mind, Li Ang slowly had a plan in his heart.

However, just as he was preparing to state his choice, a female voice suddenly rang out in the conference hall: "Mazres, eating alone is not a good habit."

"If I remember correctly, this little guy should be an alchemist, right? In that case, the Farazul branch is the most suitable choice for him."

The speaker was a black dragon emitting a decaying aura.

She first revealed a smile she considered kind to Li Ang, then stared with those huge dragon eyes and said: "And didn't you all see that his deepest bloodline is a Black Dragon?"

"Hehe."

Hearing this, Mazres and Randolph rolled their eyes at the same time.

They thought the new guy had some high opinion, but didn't expect she was also here to snatch people.

Only before the two dragons could say anything, a somewhat sarcastic voice inserted itself:

"Sinthra, save it; who in the group doesn't know that your Farazul branch is famous for having little money and many things to do? Aren't you deliberately trying to pit this little guy?"

"What do you mean by that? If you want to fight, just say so!"

"Forget it, you two are fifty steps laughing at a hundred steps; don't look down on each other."

Seeing that they were arguing again on the high platform, Li Ang couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

However, the Black Dragon named "Sinthra" was right about one thing, and that was that the deepest dragon blood in his body did indeed belong to a Black Dragon; after all, the [King of Bronze and Fire] originated from the [Black King] Nidhogg.

But as he devoured countless dragon blood in the High School DxD world, the share of bloodline belonging to the [Black King] had been diluted a lot.

Just as Li Ang thought this argument would end quickly like not long ago, he didn't expect the situation to become increasingly intense.

Seeing this, he could only helplessly stop them: "Lords, don't argue anymore, I've already thought it through."

The voice was not high, but it made the hall quiet instantly.

At this moment, all gazes focused on Li Ang again.

Randolph broke the silence first, propped up his body slightly, and asked with a gentle tone: "Then what is your answer?"

"Is it the Bahamut branch or the Tiamat branch? Or are you not prepared to join the group?"

At this moment, Li Ang felt the gazes coming from all directions, shrugged his shoulders and said: "Since the lords all hope so much that I join the department they are in, why not let me become an external staff member and serve each department."

He said this after careful consideration; after all, many departments in [Aeon Logistics] belonged to logistics, and even if the giant dragons on the high platform agreed, by the time he ran out to be a cosmic drifter, it would be equivalent to only joining the Tiamat branch or the Bahamut branch.

Just learn how to steal wages!

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the giant dragons on the high platform became strange; after all, [Aeon Logistics] had never had such a precedent.

Mazres narrowed his eyes slightly, then slowly poked his body out from the high platform, and asked with a voice that couldn't hear emotions: "The courage is big enough... but why do you think we will agree?"

"...Because I am a genius?"

Facing the inquiry, Li Ang answered somewhat uncertainly.

"?"

Hearing this sentence, all the giant dragons including Mazres were stunned.

This little thing is so shameless!

Just as the atmosphere gradually became strange, Randolph said: "Fine, I agree."

"Randolph?!"

Hearing this, Mazres immediately turned his head somewhat surprised; he never expected that there would really be a dragon on the high platform who would agree to the proposal of the little guy before him.

Then, before he could react, voices rang out one after another on the high platform.

"Hehe... I agree too."

"What an interesting little guy... count me in."

Soon, only Mazres was left in the conference hall without responding.

He first glanced at his peers who were interested, then turned his head to look at the tiny human figure before him: "Since that's the case... I don't seem to have a reason to refuse either."

The Red Dragon knew that most of his peers on the high platform agreed to this proposal more out of the intention of watching the fun.

But so what? It was better to say that Mazres was also aroused with curiosity at this moment.

He looked at the little dragon cub with a normal expression before him, and slowly grinned to reveal a ferocious fang:

"But before that, I need to see where your confidence comes from."
