Chapter 411: A Few Truths and a Few Falsehoods

"We have some contact with Sigoaney, but since she entered the palace, we have lost contact with her, and as you know, Siegel has gone to great lengths to turn her into a real canary. ”

"In addition, we didn't expect that for so many years, the second outsider who had only been the second after Beowulf would actually be you, a disaster for the entire world with the power of magic...... Ahem, lords of Jutland and Schleswig. ”

Originally, the old man wanted to talk about the calamity girl, but he thought that the girl in front of him, who looked no older than his granddaughter, already had the strength to stand on the top of the pyramid in this monster-infested world.

The old man was telling the truth, and Alice confirmed this based on magic and experience, which also allowed both parties to confirm that everything that had happened in the village and outside before could be described as a misunderstanding.

If you really pursue it, Alice, who attacked her just because of a few disrespectful words, is even more at fault, after all, she came to this mountain range.

"So, is there something wrong with you stumbling in here this time?"

The old man said lightly, since he knew that Alice had come here to have something to do with Sigourney, it was no wonder that what she asked for was to let them get involved in the dispute in Scandinavia.

However, as long as Alice does not state her purpose, they can choose to play stupid and fill, after all, escape is also a choice, and this choice is very much in line with their character and life habits.

The long years have given him wisdom and experience beyond ordinary people, if it is just an ordinary person, even if it is a person with the same strength as him, in front of him, he will accidentally step into his language trap, especially the word mistakenly, if Alice does not find out, then her identity will be changed from a guest to an intruder.

Needless to say, the difference between a guest and an intruder is that the former needs to be treated with courtesy, while the latter needs to be repelled with powerful magic and weapons.

It's a pity that the person he is dealing with may be younger than the old man's granddaughter in terms of age, but it is not so simple to gain an advantage with experience.

Since coming into this world, Alice has read no more books, and the books she has read are not only the analyses, analyses, and experimental records that can improve her strength, but also the autobiographies of the bards and some pretentious guys.

and autobiography, although there are some exaggerated and fictional elements, but most of them still use real things to adapt and describe, and a large number of books of this kind make Alice also have extraordinary theoretical knowledge in terms of intrigue.

"It was a misunderstanding before, but I didn't fall into such a statement, I came here to look for you, and the address was also known from Sigoaney's mouth. ”

Alice spread her hands and didn't care to tell the snow mountain druids the news that Sigourney could still contact the outside world, she was not afraid that the other party would tell Seagal the news, nor was she afraid to let the other party know about Sigourney and her team.

"You're really hard to find here, if it weren't for what I've heard from Beowulf before, I really can't find it, after all, your magic is so cleverly set up. ”

Alice said this in admiration, and her voice was clearly heard in the ears of everyone in the square.

Alice lied, the reason why she was able to discover this village was purely a serendipity, if Alice hadn't met the mammoth, if she hadn't wanted to subdue each other on a whim, then she wouldn't be standing here now, talking to the druids.

"Isn't he dead?"

"She has a relationship with Beowulf, and she has a relationship with those Yeats, could it be that those Yeats can't see Siegel and plan to join Sigourn's forces?"

"Don't be stupid, Sigourney is now married to Siegel, has become the queen of the Goths, and helped her enemies destroy Barusinger and kill her father and brother. ”

Like thousands of bees flapping their wings, Alice's words plunged the entire square into an uproar, and the people who had been watching quietly began to exchange ears.

Alice's lies have achieved the effect she expected, in order to confuse the other party's thinking with fake news, so as to affect the other party's judgment, and there is no doubt that the name Beowulf, the person who once entered this village and communicated with these druids, still has a certain weight in the druids' minds.

"Miss Alice, how did Beowulf die?"

I don't know from nowhere, from whose mouth, suddenly a loud shout came out, which directly overwhelmed the noise of the entire square, and made the originally lively atmosphere pause for a few seconds.

"Yes, Miss Alice, is it true that Beowulf died at the hands of Attila as they say?"

"Yes, Alice, tell us the name of Beowulf's killer. ”

"Whoever kills our friend must bear our wrath. ”

The otherwise calm atmosphere was like a blazing bonfire at a lit banquet, and the calm druids who had been able to maintain their mood shouted angrily when they heard Beowulf's name.

The frenzied atmosphere caused the still young druids to cry out in fright, and the frightened and cried children provoked their mothers to mess up, and the whole scene became very chaotic at once.

The men in the crowd looked at Alice with anger in their eyes, they didn't talk about gentlemanly manners at this time, and there was no custom of being humble to women in Scandinavian customs, and the strong momentum pressed Alice's shoulders and forced her to tell the truth about Beowulf.

Alice opened her mouth, she was amazed at the fiery temper of the druids who lived in this icy world, and at the same time surprised that Beowulf had such a huge influence among them.

How did Beowulf die, of course, I killed him.

Alice, of course, couldn't tell the truth directly, telling the truth to these angry druids, looking at those bloodshot eyes, she believed that if she said this, she would be torn to shreds before the other party could think about the truth or falsehood of the sentence.

"Knock" "Knock" "Knock"

The loud sound of wood hitting stone echoed in the air, and both men cursing angrily, women scolding men, and children crying in the chaos of the atmosphere closed their fucking mouths in the rhythmic sound.

The old man, who was sitting across from Alice, got up from his chair, took out a wooden staff out of nowhere, and struck the stone table in the middle.

"Have you calmed down? Or do you need to be calmer?"

The chilly sound made the temperature of the whole square even colder, Alice heard the white-haired girl standing not far behind her, shivering, and the four old men sitting on the table who had not spoken since the beginning also flashed a look of panic on their faces.

"I'm sorry, Miss Alice. ”

The old man did not continue on the subject, he owed, expressed his pleasure to Alice, and then returned the conversation to Alice's arrival.

"Miss Alice, did you come here to look for us?"

"It's not that I'm looking for something for you, it's Sigourney looking for something for you. ”

Alice propped her chin and corrected the mistake in the old man's words.

"Well, Miss Alice, is there something Sigourney asked you to come to us?"

"Well, she's asking you to help her deal with Siegel and prevent him from becoming king of all of Scandinavia. ”

Alice said calmly, she was now discussing with the old man the question that would decide the whole of Scandinavia, but the tone between the two of them was as if they were discussing what to eat tonight.

"Prevent Siegel from becoming the king of Scandinavia? Why? Isn't she the queen of Siegel? If Siegel becomes the only king of Scandinavia and builds an empire like Egypt and Assyria, won't her children inherit his father's throne and become the king of the whole empire?"

This time it was not the old man with the snow monster hat who spoke, but the old man with a reindeer-headed hat on his head sitting in the second place to Alice's left.

Since none of the people here have introduced themselves or given Alice their names until now, Alice can only distinguish them by the clothes they wear.

"It's a little different from what you received, the real truth is not as sweet and beautiful as it seems, Barusengue asked Sigourney to marry Segal, in order to end the long-standing dispute between the two tribes, and take advantage of Beowulf's death, and jointly divide up the power of the whole of Scandinavia by peaceful means. ”

And because the Goths are east of Barusinge, if Attila attacks again, the first to bear the brunt will be the Gothic kingdom led by Siegel, even if Attila does not attack Scandinavia because of two defeats, Sigourney who married Siegel will be left with the descendants of Barusinger's blood. ”

"Having a child of Barusenga blood become the king of the enemy Goths, no matter what the reason, is a good thing for the Balusinger clan that does more good than harm. ”

With Barusenge's typical Scandinavian character, it is definitely not possible to consider such complex and far-reaching things, and the reason why he married Sigourney to Siegel was simply moved by Siegel's rhetoric.

However, this does not prevent Alice from portraying Barusenge as a king with a deep city, who uses even his own daughter by any means to achieve his goals.

"As you know, Siegel is much better than Barushinger in terms of resourcefulness, and when Barushinger thought that he would not choose to attack Gothic City, and would not attack his wife who has the blood of Odin, he killed them by despicable means. ”

Later, taking advantage of the identity of Barusenge's son-in-law, when the Barusenge people were defenseless, the inside and outside joined forces to destroy the entire city, and the raging flames burned the forest to the ground, and the trees and flowers were also consumed by the merciless flames. ”

Even now, Sigourne is imprisoned in the Gothic royal palace, on the surface she is still a Gothic queen, in essence, she has lost her freedom, and she is used by Segal as a mother to breed excellent offspring, and from now on, the Gothic royal family will have the blood of the god Odin. ”

Alice's face was tinged with a hint of sarcasm, a smile that made her lies more believable, and she said that at least seventy percent of what she said was true.

Alice's method of seven truths and three falsehoods is more difficult to debunk than 100% lies, and judging by the angry looks on the faces of the druids around them, they undoubtedly did not detect the thirty percent falsehood.

"So what? Goth is the winner, Barushenger is the loser, no matter how despicable Siegel's methods are, no matter how miserable and bad Sigourney is at this time, for the whole of Scandinavia, the emergence of a unified Scandinavian empire can bring rich benefits to the people. ”

The old man with a wolf's head hat on his head, who was sitting first to the left of Alice, said calmly.

"First, after the establishment of the Scandinavian Empire, the confrontations and wars between the various tribes and kingdoms will cease, and the Goths, Barusenges, and Yeats will cease to exist and will become Scandinavians. ”

"Second, with the resources of the whole of Scandinavia, the new empire will become very powerful, and the surrounding land will be covered with Scandinavian flags, whether centaurs or gnolls, under our magic and axes, to worship the supreme god Odin. ”

"Third, you are the lord of Jutland and Schleswig, and you don't believe in the god Odin, or even any of the gods of the Aesir gods, Miss Alice, do you want us to join Sigoarney's camp to delay Siegel's conquest, are you afraid that Siegel will target your territory into the Scandinavian Empire?"

No matter how true or false you are, I won't listen to you.
