Chapter 129: Persuasion
Du Shen smiled and waited for a few elders to come to the front. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoHe was the first to salute: "Good day, Excellencies. ”
The elders had a bad complexion. Someone glared at Du Shen, as if he was about to fight. However, in the face of Du Shen's politeness. Everyone patiently returned the salute and briefly introduced themselves.
Mario walked up to Du Shen and stood side by side.
"Du Shen," Montague walked out of the crowd angrily, "what do you want to do when you ask us to come?" ”
"It turned out to be Elder Montagu," Du Shen said with a smile, "I'm very sorry for what happened last time. It's all a misunderstanding! I have come here to tell you the true purpose of what I am doing. ”
Montague was annoyed, thinking that Du Shen was deliberately manipulating. Powa was stunned. Others are unhappy.
Said stepped forward, walked to Montagu's side, and leaned forward slightly: "Your Excellency Du Shen, what do you want to say?" ”
Du Shen chuckled: "Someone told me that using a stone tablet can open the treasure house here." I was also told that there was no treasure trove here at all, only the ancient demon king Ayala was sealed. With a fluke, I used the Brotherhood of Secret Magic to collect stone tablets to activate the mechanism. Who would have thought that the demon king was really sealed here. Now that the Demon King is about to get out of trouble, I regret it very much. ”
As he spoke, Du Shen's smile faded and turned into remorse: "Wasting so much energy and time, there is no gain." How could I be willing? So, I had an idea and thought about it. I used President Powa to spread the situation of the Demon King breaking the seal. I plan to force the temple to gather its forces to kill the Demon King. ”
"Hmph," Du Shen sneered fiercely, "How can the demon king be so easy to kill?" The temple must have suffered a terrible loss. Wait until you both fight to get the result. I calmly showed up again to clean up the mess. If you're lucky, we'll kill the Demon King and you. If I'm unlucky, I can use the Demon King to weaken your power and uproot the Temple. ”
"When the time comes, the temple will cease to exist!" Du Shen's eyes were sharp, and he raised his hand and clenched his fist, as if he was holding the ticket to victory. He laughed, "Then, a new temple will be built." And I will be the new god who rules the whole world! ”
The faces of the five elders became more and more ugly. Someone stepped forward and walked towards Du Shen, but was blocked by Powa.
Powa blocked in front of the elder and asked loudly, "Where is the Demon King?" Your Excellency Du Shen, your plan is too much to take for granted. Why didn't you think about the Demon King? How could he allow you to rule the world? ”
"Snort," Du Shen shook his head, looking at pity, "Haven't you woken up yet?" I'm with the Demon King, and I'm originally in the same group! Have you not traced my origins? Have you found my origin? There's no way you'll find it! Because I am a spy and a pioneer sent by the other world. With my saving grace, His Highness Ayala will surely be willing to leave this broken world to me. ”
Some of the elders had grim faces. Some suddenly realized. Some of them were expressionless, and their eyes were flashing.
Said laughed directly: "Your Excellency Du Shen, are you being self-defeating?" Why would you want to do this? Now that your plans have been exposed, what can you do? ”
"Hmph," Du Shen smirked twice, "My plan just worked. You know my plan, and you won't be foolishly trying to destroy the Demon King again. In this way, my task was easily accomplished. That is to rescue His Highness Ayala intact. ”
Said laughed. The other elders were either annoyed or laughing. Powa smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency Du Shen, don't be joking!" What exactly do you want to do? ”
"I'm not kidding," Du Shen said seriously, "I'm really a spy sent by the other world." My true goal is to successfully rescue the sealed Demon King! ”
"Alright!" Said restrained his smile, but couldn't hold back it. Because just now, it seems that there are really elders who take Du Shen's nonsense seriously.
"Your Excellency Du Shen," Said tensed his facial muscles to restrain his smile, "what exactly do you want to do?" Why did it take thousands of years for someone to think of sending you to rescue the Demon King? Don't you think, this loophole is too big? ”
Du Shen slapped his face lightly and praised: "Your Excellency's eyes are like torches, it seems that you can't deceive you." All right! I'll be honest, I'm not a spy from another world. The reason why the Demon King is about to appear is to mobilize the power of the temple so that it can sneak up on your weak ......"
"That's enough!" One of the most robust elders shouted angrily. The elder really believed Du Shen's nonsense just now. At this time, the elder's cheeks were still slightly red: "Your Excellency Du Shen, what do you want to do when you called us?" Please don't waste each other's time with that nonsense. ”
"Okay," Du Shen nodded, "Actually, I just want to contribute my strength, intending to destroy the demon king who is about to appear." Because of our previous hostile relationship, I'm really worried that you're thinking nonsense. So, I have no choice but to follow your train of thought and confess. ”
The crowd became serious. Said said solemnly: "Since you know the severity, why did Your Excellency release the Demon King?" You must know that the current situation can be said to be caused by your own hands! ”
"I regret it," Du Shen lowered his head, "Didn't I explain it in the first place?" I'm not sure if it's a treasure trove or a seal. The treasure is charming, because of greed, an attempt, it caused today's desperate situation. ”
Du Shen raised his head: "I know that you have scruples and may not accept my help." Never mind. I just hope that you understand the seriousness of the matter. It's been a long time since the mutation appeared. I'm sure you've consulted the historical sources and learned something about Ayala. Whatever you know, I want you to hear what we have. Mario! ”
Mario waited for a long time and immediately took a few steps forward. He cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Everyone, what I said next has been carefully confirmed, and the truth is extremely high, please be cautious." ”
Mario narrates, "Ayala is just one of the Elder Demon Kings. Among the several demon kings who have entered our world, his strength should be the highest. Otherwise, in the battle back then, it would not have been the other demon kings who had died, only he was just sealed. ”
"It is important to note that Ayala was in charge of logistics and transportation back then. He's extremely good at spatial teleportation. Therefore, if he is allowed to escape from the predicament, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find his traces. Moreover, because it is good at spatial teleportation. Once Ayala finds the legendary crossover gate. He will most likely reopen the passage to the Atlas. When the time comes, the army of the other world will return, and our world will only be afraid that it will be difficult to survive. ”
The more people present listened, the more solemn they became.
Mario reminded loudly: "If the cross-border door is in your hands, you must hide it." It must not fall into Ayala's hands. This is the main purpose of our request for this meeting! Remember! ”
Du Shen said solemnly: "The cross-border door is in your hands, right?" Don't tell me you haven't found it yet. Please take care of it! ”
"Come to think of it, you won't accept my help. But at least, I can't be a drag. For lest you be worried, I have a bad heart. Before this sniper demon king is over, me and my floating city can stay in the area you have demarcated. Even the headquarters of the Azure Temple, which is tens of thousands of miles away from here. I only ask you to mobilize the greatest strength to destroy the Demon King. ”
A few elders were somewhat moved. Montague was skeptical: "Is this true? What if we were to keep a close eye on you? You know, your Tide Gate can teleport over long distances! ”
Du Shen gritted his teeth and nodded happily: "Yes!" As long as there aren't too many people, they won't pose a mortal threat to me. I can accept that you will send someone to spy on me and the Tidegate! ”
"Really?" Hearing that Du Shen was willing to cooperate, Said became solemn. Du Shen's performance seems to show that he really thinks that the situation in the future is very serious.
"Really," Du Shen pointed to the airship behind him, "You can send someone to follow me to the Floating City to oversee." The Floating City can be activated immediately, and it can be away from here day and night. ”
Several elders looked at each other and did not respond to Du Shen for a long time. It's not that I'm worried that Du Shen will kill the overseers.
Said seemed to get hints from other people, and asked Du Shen seriously: "You said before, are you willing to help?" If we accept. How are you going to do it? ”
Du Shen didn't hesitate: "Of course, all the forces are sent, including myself." I am willing to accept your command. Even if I am the first to take the lead, I will be the first to fight the Demon King! ”
Everyone was either surprised or half-convinced: "Are you willing to obey our command and be the first to fight the demon king?" ”
Du Shen slapped his chest so loudly: "The ancient demon king was brutal, and he directly slaughtered the city and refined weapons from the corpses of thousands of people. If we wait for Ayala to open the passage to the other world, strong people like us will only bear the brunt. Since you may die if you advance or retreat, it is better to fight for a glimmer of hope. ”
Said muttered slightly: "We can't give you a decision right now. If you are willing to stay here for a few days, we will visit again. Of course, rest assured, we will not send anyone close to this place. ”
"Yes," Du Shen nodded, "I'll stay here for ten days." Ten days later, if there is no result, I will drive the Floating City to the westernmost country of a thousand lakes. During this period, I hope that both of us will restrain our subordinates and not cause unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts. ”
Said nodded: "Please rest assured. We will definitely visit again in 10 days at the latest! ”
Said and the others left. Du Shen returned to the airship and waited.
Time passed, and the airship was suspended in place. In fact, Du Shen and the wizard's subordinates did not stay on the airship all the time. Du Shen and Mario have a way to complete the transformation of ghouls through the Tide Gate and return to the Ridge of Death.
Five days later, in the evening, Saeed led another group of people back to the airship. It just so happened that Du Shen stayed on the airship that day.
The two sides met again, and Said told Du Shen that the Temple intended to form a coalition to snipe the Demon King, and the Temple agreed to accept Du Shen's joining.
As a result, the airship approached the temple camp slightly. Du Shen led a small number of wizards and set up camp less than a kilometer away from the temple camp. Du Shen was on the ground, under the supervision of the temple, and at the same time communicated frequently.
On the second day of Du Shen's encampment, two tall portals were erected in the temple camp. A large number of figures and supplies poured out of the portal intermittently. Soon, to the east of the camp, a new camp was built, which grew larger and larger.
