These arrogant words struck Meilian Solomon's heart, shocking him and causing him to fall silent. His first reaction was arrogance and conceit. But he immediately thought of the other party's deeds. As a member of the Burial Agency, he was no stranger to what had happened in the church in recent months. He had to admit that the sudden interruption of the entire church's actions and even the death of a cardinal did affect the overall situation to some extent. At least, it affected the overall situation of the Dead Apostles. No matter how arrogant the new white knight in front of him was, he was qualified because he had forced the White Winged Duke to breathe again. This made him begin to believe more and more that the other party was not lying. The other party really has the ability to completely kill his four great monsters. "call." This alone puts him at an absolute disadvantage. He remained silent, and Victor did not keep his eyes closed. He leisurely gathered a bloody chair and sat on it, which made his subordinates around him look even more fanatical.
Behind him, Artluchi was holding her chin with her eyes twinkling, while Stuart sighed silently. It would be great if Her Royal Highness could learn this. The other party's sense of control over the rhythm. Compared to his once sinister and cunning companion Brad, Stuart himself seems to be so poor at speaking, but this does not mean that he is stupid and blind. Ancient wisdom is always the greatest wisdom, and he knows very well where the strength that Victor has shown so far lies. Compared with the opponent's combat effectiveness, the opponent's ability to clearly see the situation and then completely control the rhythm in his own hands through conversation and means is his strongest point. Especially after having that dream, he had a deeper understanding of Victor. His princess now lacks such qualities, and the appearance of Victor completes this incomplete puzzle for her. But he still hated him, hated Victor. Because this guy is almost another White Wing Prince - except for the different ideas, his courage, madness, ability to manipulate people's hearts, and even the confidence and decisiveness when he said "I am the one", all made him deeply afraid. How could such a person always live under someone else's roof? Those who respect human nature often make good use of it. The people around him had different expressions, but Victor suddenly laughed softly. Meilian Solomon's momentum was gone, and showing weakness meant that the other party was ready to give in. Frankly speaking, this was easier than he had imagined. It seems that after his affairs fermented, there were some benefits. At least, those forced and embarrassing pasts have begun to endorse him. That's what reputation does. Victor actually did have bargaining chips, such as the information he knew about Elquet. But judging from the other party's appearance now, Victor can conclude that he has already begun to think about leaving. He just lacks a step. So, can this chip be used to make more money?
Thinking of this, he looked at Mei Lian with more affection. In his eyes, this member of the burial agency was already someone he could control. He suddenly dispersed the magic power in his hand, and his momentum disappeared: "Mei Lian, we are both the twenty-seventh ancestor of the Dead Apostles. There is no need to confront each other anymore. Why don't we sit down and have a good talk?" "I don't think we have anything to discuss, and I'm not a Dead Apostle." He hesitated for a moment, raised the scabbard, then used some force to fix it in place and relaxed his hands. The next second, he saw the dead apostles surrounding him voluntarily make way for him. Seeing the other party suddenly give in, he actually felt relieved, and even his insistence on the scabbard became less, and he felt that it was enough to just leave like this. He turned around decisively and wanted to leave, but Victor's next words made him stop suddenly. "Baiji Arquette." A low murmur reached his ears, like an echo from the abyss. He turned his head suddenly and stared at the other person: "You..." He was greeted by Victor's brilliant smile. "We can talk about this, can't we?" …… Stable. When Meilian Solomon completely gave up resistance and even chose to go back to the castle with him, Victor understood in his heart. Take advantage! As mentioned earlier, Meilian Solomon was called Elquet's number one bootlicker by Eltluki. This is actually not true. To be more precise, Meiren Solomon is Zhu Yue's great admirer. He swore allegiance to Zhu Yue. Therefore, when the 27th Ancestor of the Dead Apostles betrayed the True Ancestor and Zhu Yue, the True Ancestor, also passed away, Meiren Solomon became disappointed and lived in seclusion. He even joined the Burial Agency out of hatred and turned around to cause trouble for the Dead Apostles. However, Baiji Elquet perfectly inherited Zhu Yue's power and appearance... Naturally, in addition to being an expert in dog-licking, Mei Lian is also proficient in substitute literature. Well, this is called loving the house and loving the dog. Anyway, as long as we control Elquet, it is equivalent to controlling Meilian, but... using this trick is not without disadvantages. At least... Victor looked at the delicate little face that was puffed up with anger, feeling somewhat helpless - Our own princess has already started making a fuss. …… White Princess Elquet Brunstad is the true and legitimate princess among the Dead Apostles, even more famous than Altluchi. However, unlike Heiji who runs around everywhere, willful and free, Baiji has been sleeping in the Millennium City. As a weapon, she will only wake up after Luoya appears, and she exists to execute and kill the opponent. It is worth mentioning here that Bai Ji's pursuit and sleep were all of her own will, so there was no so-called "liberation" itself.
"So, even if I use the word liberation, all I can do is to free her from her obsession with hunting Roya." At the table, Victor elegantly took the tea brewed by the slightly dazed android beside him, and chuckled as he said, "As for where she should go from now on, what she wants to do, or whether she will continue to fall into a deep sleep, that is not something I can decide." "Roya, liberation... is enough." Meilian Solomon took a deep breath: "But are you sure?" "That's Roya." Roya, the serpent of Akashia, the infinite reincarnation. No matter how one dies, within a period of time, one's soul information will be contaminated and selected into a child, who will then be reincarnated. The nature of this reincarnation is difficult to explain. Some ancestors believe that it is not the principle of Roya's blood ring, but a talent similar to some kind of magic. Other ancestors are quite firm in believing that it is the principle of his blood ring. But no matter what, everyone agrees that it cannot be killed. "Since it is the Akasha Serpent, we can just solve it from the root." Victor acted quite relaxed about this: "Any ability that targets or rewrites the root can easily wipe it out, right?" Having said that, the means to rewrite the root cause is itself equivalent to a miracle. "I see." Meilian Solomon was silent: "You have a method similar to magic..." "In short, I can make this snake disappear completely, just like your monster—" Victor raised his hand: "I am very confident about this, and I can even sign a contract." Ever since he had the endorsement of Artelucchi, Victor had liked the concept of contracts. He was not worried about whether he could pay the price of magic. Even if his "end" magic could not solve it, there would be something called "Death Eyes" that would destroy it in the future. He just knew it in advance and used the information gap to make some extra money. What's wrong with that? "You guy..." Meilian Solomon's childish face wrinkled tightly. It had to be said that the other party had a hold on her lifeline. With this thought in mind, he sighed deeply and remained silent for a long time. After a while, he finally raised his head and asked softly: "So, I will give you the scabbard, and then you..." "What do you think?" The other party's tentative question made Victor laugh. He shook his head and denied it directly: "Let's get straight to the point, okay? There's no need to talk back and forth. It's so tiring." "Let me put it this way. The scabbard originally belonged to me, because this place, and all of Cornwall, should be considered my spoils of war for now." "Of course, you can come and rob it, but if you do that, you have to be prepared for your monster to die." "That's one thing." Victor took a sip of black tea, only revealing his eyes and staring at the other party, and said: "And then." "On the other hand, whether I should help Elquet or Roya is another matter. It's just that I was going to talk to you after the Dead Apostles Meeting, but I moved it to now. Do you understand?" …… Mei Lian finally left empty-handed. Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with Victor's arrogant attitude, he finally accepted his conditions. At some point in the future, support each other and... complete a favor.
After the other person left, Victor first played with the scabbard in his hand, and after looking at it carefully, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Avalon indeed." well. Cornwall's most basic goal has been achieved, so now the powder keg can expand at will. However, just a few minutes after Victor relaxed, he suddenly saw a slender figure walking out of the empty door in the direction where Mei Lian had walked out. Altluchi was standing there, with a puffy face on her delicate face. She narrowed her bloodshot eyes dangerously, showing her two small canine teeth in anger, and said with a dangerous smile: "So, my dear White Knight, are you done with your work?" "Uh--I'm done." "Then...should you explain to me what happened with Elquite?" When Victor heard this, the smile on his face froze instantly... …… The negotiation ended well. This is what Altluqi thought, because although she didn't like Meilian Solomon, her abilities, especially the four great monsters, were indeed more suitable for war. Especially the King of Land, and the castle puppet of another financial devil, can be regarded as two major weapons of war. Now that we have gained the support of the other party, it is definitely a good thing overall. After all... according to Victor's thinking, the outbreak of war is almost certain, even she can predict it. But still so angry!! He clearly knew that the person he hated the most was Elquet! He actually planned to help Elquet! ! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Altluchi was so angry that she wanted to bite Victor's neck as soon as she saw him. But due to the princess's dignity, she finally snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly: "I find that you particularly like to make people write blank IOUs." "Hmm?" Hearing this, Victor, who was about to endure the other party's temper and try to appease her, was slightly stunned. He didn't expect the other party to suddenly change the subject: "What?" "You always like to make others owe you a request. Obviously, you have already thought about what you want them to do, right? Why do you still use the excuse that you haven't thought about it yet to get rid of them?" The same goes for Aozaki Touko in the dream, for myself back then, and for Mei Lian now. "Hmm... Well, this is a bit complicated to explain." Hearing this, Victor pondered for a moment, this was actually half of his hobby as a riddle teller, but it did have some benefits, he thought, since the princess wanted to know, he didn't mind letting her master some more psychological techniques. “It’s a bit like the empty window effect.” “What is the empty window effect?” Artluqi tilted her head. Victor: "..."
"Forget it." He smiled and said simply, "In short, if you tell the other person directly what you want him to do, then the stone in his heart will fall to the ground. Putting aside the influence of emotions themselves, if you ask him to do things at a longer interval, then he will have enough time to weigh the pros and cons, and even infer what you want to do, so as to find more bargaining chips." "But on the contrary, it's different. In addition to the above not happening, when you need him and find him, he will just feel like he has finally repaid you, and the stone in his heart will suddenly fall to the ground. He will also have a stronger sense of identity and motivation for this request." "so……" Although being a riddler is easy to get beaten, it does have many benefits. Chapter 94: The world being swept away! There are still ten days until the crown decision is made.
