Chapter 156: War Broker
Stayed in the Falcon Castle for a few days.
In Hearthfire Island, Peggy drank "Flesh II" and successfully advanced to Lv.7.
"Flesh II" eliminates the need for lethal parts of her body, her ability to heal wounds, and her ability to freely control the transformation of her flesh.
Because of this trait, she was also awarded the glorious role of the team's common sandbag, and everyone can play with her when they practice with her, as long as they give her a breath to save her......
Asker returned to Hearthfire Island a few times, and was rubbed by Peggy with a handful of snot and tears, and almost said that he was going to quit.
So he could only mobilize the majesty of the head of the regiment and stipulate that everyone was not allowed to abuse Peggy too much for the purpose of sparring, otherwise the head of the regiment would personally act as a sparring partner.
The effect of these words was so powerful that everyone saw Peggy hiding away, and no one practiced with her anymore.
On the main plane outside the Hearthfire Island, under the hospitality of Frederick, Novo Asker also visited the military camp near Hesingen, as well as the army of their family.
It turns out that this family is worthy of the big-tailed wolf. Due to their long-term loyalty to the Franconian griffin family, they have received a large number of fiefs and rewards, and the Falcon family is one of the best in the Duchy of Swabia in terms of equipment and financial resources and the quality of soldiers.
It's no wonder that the Fishbone Count couldn't wait to press the line forward. Once the Falcon family chooses to expand, the three or five small lords around it will be able to eat it immediately, and then use these territories to expand their forces for another round, and the Fishbone Count will not be able to fight.
The question is, why did this big-tailed wolf shrink?
"Because they've been subservient to the griffon family for too long." According to the results of the mind reading, Noh analyzed, "As early as the father of Frederick's grandfather, the Sauron family has been a loyal retainer of the Hohenstaufen family, which lasted for nearly a hundred years, four generations. ”
Because of this, Frederick's offer to secretly swallow a little territory in the vicinity while the Duke of Franconia was not free, attracted strong opposition from many people in the clan. Everyone was afraid to wait for the old griffin to come back to their senses and turn back and punish them for their infidelity. ”
"Not to mention the ambition of replacing the old griffin and swallowing the entire Duchy of Swabia is something they never thought of in their hearts."
"How long does it take to implant the ability to implant thoughts?" Asker asked.
"The idea of implantation is not slow." "The main thing is to first identify which members of their clan are opposed to expansion, and then subtly change their thinking......"
"Well, that's not going to work." Asker said.
"Isn't it possible?" Nuo thought to himself, too, to change the minds of so many people.
"We're losing too much." Aske said, "Find Frederick, make a showdown with him, make a deal, and get him to give the benefits." ”
Promise:............
"This, this and that." For a while, Nuo couldn't find any words to describe the routine proposed by Asker.
Go directly to Frederick and say that if you give me enough benefits, I will help you brainwash the people in the family who oppose you? Doesn't that sound a bit ......
"Normal, isn't it." "We are a group of arms dealers, so how can there be no war brokers among the arms dealers?" But this is not for you to do, let's go to Medea. ”
As soon as he told Medea about it, the latter's eyes immediately lit up.
"What! Why don't you call me such an interesting thing, but look for a promise, you are too partial, commander. Medea put her arm around him.
"Didn't I call you?" Asker knocked her hand off.
Medea wanted to say a few words, but suddenly her body stiffened and paralyzed, and even her thoughts became sluggish, as if she was forcibly occupied by some invisible spirit, and she looked at her expressionlessly.
Then the uncontrollable feeling quickly disappeared again, and Medea came back to her senses, filled with some kind of near-death fear.
Is the power of Spirit II so terrifying to use in sneak attacks?
She raised her suspicious gaze, and saw Nuo say softly:
"It's not that Asker doesn't trust you, it's because he intends to cut into the disguised identity of an arms dealer, so he asked me to use my family's name."
Medea lowered her gaze and quickly retracted her jealous thoughts, as if she was thinking about something, for a while:
"In other words, let me pretend to be your family's war broker and help this Count Frederick deal with the family's anti-war faction, right?"
"That's right." Noe said.
"Give me time to think about it." Medea said.
"Consider?" Asker was puzzled, "What's there to think about?" Isn't it a simple thing for you two psychic warlocks? ”
Medea sighed.
Commander, do you really not understand, or do you not understand? I don't want to play the servant of the Nuo family and stoop to her, is this difficult for you to understand?
"Okay." In the end, she decided to abandon that bit of useless backbone, and by the way, on the small book of grudge in her heart, she made a heavy note of the regiment commander Asker, "Then so be it." ”
"You're becoming more tolerant of him now." Deep down, Medusa said coldly and suddenly.
"Then what do you think I should do and rush up and bite him to death?" Medea suddenly asked, "Haven't we been talking a little bit lately?" I don't think it's been a long time since I've heard you. ”
"That's a matter of course." Medusa replied, "Don't forget, what I was divided for. ”
"You mean, androphobia?"
"It is the wall between you and me, dividing the personality that originally belonged to the same into two distinct pieces." Medusa said coldly, "However, now the wall has cracked open. ”
"So our personalities are merging." Medea was thoughtful, and for a moment she couldn't decide whether it was good or bad.
"As the fusion deepens, all my characteristics will return to your mind." Medusa said, "A penchant for pain, a special connection to purgatory, and...... Except for the man, a strong dislike for the remaining males. ”
"Doesn't that sound sad to you?" Medea asked curiously.
"Of course, because that's sooner or later." Medusa was silent, "Sometimes I envy you, Medea. ”
"What do you envy me?"
"So you haven't realized it yet? The succubus's thirst for intrigue and pain, as well as the torment of a never-satisfying jade hope, are not related to you today. Medusa said quietly.
"Medea, you don't look like a succubus at all. Malkina has laid out your future so clearly that you don't have to know anything to live without worry. ”
"Markina?" Medea suddenly felt that something was wrong, but no matter how much she continued to ask, Medusa had sunk into the depths of her soul and was silent again.
