Picked up by the Protagonist of a Tormented! MC Novel-Volume 5 Chapter 8

This conclusion that Xi Wei felt something wrong was summarized at the beginning of the mercenary trade union competition. Zeno came to the conclusion basing on careful observation. What was wrong with Xi Wei? For example, Xi Wei did not allow Zeno to go to find Suji on his own, and Zeno must be accompanied by Xi Che. Even if Xi Wei could only stand and listen to the pharmacy knowledge that he didn’t understand. In fact, except when Zeno forced to separate from Xi Wei. Basically, they had been inseparable since they met. They were together when they were babies. When they grew up they were also together. After the reunion, they were not so sticky. After all, there was no way in college. they, living in dormitories, could not do whatever they wanted, which gave Zeno an illusion that they could get along normally.

Yes, the illusion, Zeno didn't know what he was doing, touched the sensitive nerves of Xi Wei, and let Xi Wei pick up the desire to control him.

It was not a mistake in words. It was really a control.

In fact, there was such a sign in the past. Xi Wei had an instinctive distrust of people since he was a child, but there was a very hidden and extremely small loneliness in his heart. All readers thought that he was born with ruthlessness and innate coldness. In fact, he could not trust something beyond his control. How could a person feel unconditionally dependent on someone who he did not trust, so Xi Wei tempted, let others betray, stared at them, until he finally exhausted all the meager expectations, pulling everyone to be destroyed together.

Only Zeno, because in the first encounter he was a baby who was completely ignorant as a human being. Xi Wei gave him extraordinary gentleness and patience from the beginning because a baby without a father and a mother would not hurt him, and Zeno would not live without Xi Wei. Xi Wei could completely control and dominate.

In fact, according to Zeno's deep love for Xi Wei, he did not feel annoying about this kind of domination and control. Instead, there was a kind of faint joy. This meant that Xi Wei was attached and persistent to him. Perhaps it not very normal, but who was qualified to judge their relationship, after all, were irrelevant people.

Xi Wei thought that Zeno should shave his hair, so Zeno had been a little monk for five years. Xi Wei arranged everything for Zeno, so Zeno would follow it without any doubt. Xi Wei indulged Zeno because he did not touch Xi Wei's sensitive line.

The previous Zeno was aware but never took it seriously. Xi Wei wanted to control everything he had, so he gave himself to Xi Wei with all his heart, subconsciously wanted to follow Xi Wei's nature, gave Xi Wei the sense of security he desired, would never betray, always belonged to him, which was the way to love Xi Wei.

Now that this love has changed. It had a more romantic and sweeter meaning. Zeno still did not hate Xi Wei’s control over him, but he did not want to let it go.

He could accept, but this was unfair to Xi Wei, and it was not conducive to Xi Wei’s response to his feelings, so it must be changed.

Zeno thought thoughtfully about this in his head and went back to see Xi Wei, whose eyes full of fortitude and determination.

Xi Wei didn’t know what he was thinking. He only thought that it was good that Zeno didn’t go to the place that he couldn’t see. Zeno was still safe and harmless.

Zeno, who was “safe and harmless”, was quietly grinding his claws and started running on the avenue of "death".

Just in this way with a bad mind, the study of Suji had a look, and some theories were universal in all the world. If it was only extracted the ingredients that had a role in fever, it did not affect its other effects. People didn’t need to eat the whole medicine and waste the rest of the ingredients. It could be said that the way of waste utilization. Zeno was very excited, with this success, the rest would soon have progress. Zeno believed it would not be long that he could give the world a big surprise with the ability of Suji.

Zeno seemed to have foreseen that he became a rich and handsome man, got married to Xi Wei and embarked on the road of life’s peak.

But… how to deal with sexual coldness? The Xi Wei in the book was still a virgin until he died. Because of his growing environment, his psychological shadow was too deep. His mother sold her body and was killed in bed. There were still many men and women who died in bed and died of sex, so Xi Wei had always rejected the sexual relationship with anyone.

However, one reader said it was not unreasonable. People who made love could not fall in love, but those who fell in love could not make love. This was an unchanging truth unless Zeno intended to have only a spiritual love with Plato forever.

Shit! Normal men could not stand it.

Just with a bad mind, the comparison of the mercenary unions finally opened. The first round was commonly known as the audition, which screened out most of the hilarious people in a big fight.

Belle also came. There was Xiao Wu of this pure bright physique wizard in, her injury was not a problem, but the eyes that were occasionally handed over, was repressed and bloodthirsty, but did not do anything extra.

Xiao Wu was shocked when she saw the badly injured Belle. The trauma was the second, the meaning of humiliation and dignity was even heavier. It was just that the inner lungs were really in a mess. If Xiao Wu was not a saint who was blessed by God, a normal healer estimated that it would take her a year and a half years to heal. Xiao Wu was also very confused about what the great feud was between Belle and Xi Wei, Zeno. It must be so bloody.

Xiao Wu also asked Belle, but Belle certainly didn’t tell her anything, and she wouldn’t tell her that she was the essence of the devil. Xiao Wu asked Xi Wei, and Xi Wei was also silent in order to ensure that Zeno’s identity was not exposed. Xiao Wu could only be helpless, but she would not question Xi Wei or favor the Belle for this matter.

Xiao Wu was kind and good, but not stupid. Xi Wei was not a person who liked to take the initiative to get into trouble. Even if she did not see him for a few years, Xiao Wu could be sure. But Belle was also very good to her, so Xiao Wu had got a sense in her heart, and would not blame Belle, then she had no choice but to remain silent on this matter.

Without any suspense, Xi Wei and Zeno easily saved themselves in the fight. As for Belle, even if the injury was not good, this initial selection was hard to beat her.

The next big thing was that the number of people left was probably less than one hundred. They would be in groups of four and went to the Mangyu Wilderness to find the task props. Mission props were placed there by the leader of the mercenary union.

The president, Lei Ting, had a big belly to give them mobilization before the battle. “The warriors and wizards, the reward for this year’s test is in the Mangyu wilderness. It is the letter of the president of my mercenary trade union. I am old and need to find a successor. I hope that you will not let me down.”

Lei Ting spoke very politely, while he said, he had a glance at Xi Wei, but no one found him in a small act.

People suddenly excited, the successor of the union president! This meant that whoever found the token would be fully trained by Lei Ting. What a union of the mercenaries existed, a behemoth that covered the whole continent. Due to the constraints of its founder, Xia Zuo, it would never threaten the major forces of the mainland. Therefore, it became an object of eagerness and enthusiasm for all countries. As the president, he would stand at the top of the pyramid, which was a temptation to refuse.

Team formation was learned. It was not only to ensure the ability of teammates but also to ensure that they would not be smashed secretly, to facilitate their own teammates’ knives. It was really difficult to think about it. Zeno was undoubted with Xi Wei. For some tacit reason, Belle also wanted to join, then there was one left.

The other mercenarys' eyes almost fell, they all knew that a few days ago, Xi Wei was beating and humiliating Belle, but the two men actually teamed up together. Whether were they awake or not. People were afraid of the smashing of Xi Wei that he even beat Belle with fierce. Could someone expect to compete with him?

There were also those who were not afraid of death or have no idea. If Xi Wei won, they could get good feelings during the team formation, and there would be a good future in the future.

There were not a few people who had this idea, but without any exception, they had been thrown away by Belle. In the end, there was only one girl with a timid face, looking at her with fear.

Belle pointed to her and said, “I want her.”

The girl was surprised. She didn’t expect her to be selected. Xi Wei looked at her who also had a pure dark body and was a warrior with more strength than the appearance. Zeno was suitable for practicing magic, and this girl was suitable for physical fitness.

Xi Wei did not reveal too many ideas and soon agreed.

The girl lowered her head and a smile appeared in the corner of her mouth.

When the magic circle was lighted up again and again, each team went to the Mangyu wilderness. When it was Zeno's turn, Xi Wei caught Zeno’s hand. After half an hour, they completed the transfer.

Each team would be sent to a different place. They were in the real wasteland.

The area of the Mangyu wilderness was vast, but it was concentrated in the northwest by the magical formation of the mercenary trade union. There were also wilderness and forests in the northwest. They had good luck and were not passed to the forests.

Zeno touched the alchemy ring that he took from Suji, and silently recited: “Xi Wei, I am sorry.”

Looking at the two girls who were present, Zeno thought, whether this could be achieved depends on both of you.

The samurai girl claimed to be Sasha, and she was very clever with the fact that she had no evil thoughts on the president's token, and would never rob, or even be willing to make a magic contract.

Conscientiously, Xi Wei would certainly not refuse. There were two magicians here. It was not difficult to make a magic contract.

Sasha said with a serious look, “I, Sasha Mainhili, will never snatch the president’s token with Xi Wei. If there is a violation, I will be driven by the evil spirits and broke into the demons.”

Sasha and Xi Wei each drew a drop of blood into the magical array in the air, and the contract was established.

After the contract was completed, Sasha’s look was much easier. It was about the trust of teammates. She didn’t have to be defensive against each other all the time.

Zeno glanced at her without a trace, and Belle just sneered silently and turned her head over.
