Volume 7: The Chamber of Secrets in Blackstone Mountain (Remastered) Chapter 45: The Demon Hand in the Dark (1)
"In other words, the loss this time is huge?"
The girl with long blond hair was wearing a sky blue suspender dress, the weather in early winter was a little cold, but the heating in the room allowed her to show her perfect body at will, she leaned on the sofa covered with a layer of soft fluff, twisted a small snack in her hand, swallowed it in one gulp, slightly stretched out her tongue and licked the fingertips stained with cream.
"Yes, Your Highness Princess!" The old butler in the black tuxedo looked at the little master with doting eyes, "The losses in all aspects are not small, if converted into gold coins, I am afraid it will exceed five million, and if it is dollars, it is estimated that it will exceed four billion." β
It was obviously a sum of money equivalent to the financial revenue of a small country, but in the relaxed tone of the old housekeeper, there was no sense of distress.
"Oh."
The girl was not surprised, but replied that she understood, reached out and took a small piece of matcha sandwich cake from the snack stand next to the sofa, admired it, and swallowed it.
"Correspondingly, the harvest is also very good!" As he spoke, the old butler took out a delicate handkerchief from his breast pocket and handed it to the girl, "A total of fourteen town cores have been obtained, four of which were sent by President Anxand, saying that they were gifts to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the remaining ten were town cores purchased from the black market around the world, and a total of nearly three hundred billion dollars was used. β
The girl took the small handkerchief, wiped the corners of her mouth indiscriminately, and reached out again to take a piece of snack: "Give it to me?" When did the arms dealer turn around and become a love ambassador? β
As for what the old butler said about using 300 billion yuan to buy the core of the town, the girl was not surprised as if she had heard which meals to eat tonight.
"It's just that I want His Highness to laugh." The old butler obviously looked down on the man who made his fortune by selling arms, "Do you need old Feyman to warn this inadequate toad?" β
The little master's family is the noblest existence in the world, and the blood flowing in her body is not something that those lowly fellows can hope for, it is the blood of God, it is the supreme bloodline, and the old butler Fairman has served this family since birth, so he knows this better than anyone else, and he is convinced.
"I don't want to see him again! A brainless idiot! The girl waved her hand, "And, he knows too much!" β
"I see!" The old butler smiled and nodded, which meant that the head of the Tutankhamun guild would never see the sun tomorrow again, and of course, it was more likely that he would not even be able to see the moon tonight.
After eating the fourth snack, the girl wiped her fingers with the small handkerchief in her hand, and sank her body into the back of the sofa stuffed with velvet: "After this heavy blow, the alliance can't continue to develop, it's a pity, I originally wanted to experiment with some new ideas with this toy." β
"Most of the predetermined content has been fully experimented with by the Pharaohs' Alliance, and the rest is recommended to be continued in the Khufu Guild, which is the conclusion of the think tank after a detailed analysis." The old butler leaned over and picked up the small handkerchief that the girl had casually thrown on the sofa, and put it back in his chest pocket, "Of course, if Your Highness has other ideas, I can ask the think tank to reinterpret this immediately." β
The girl pointed her finger to her lips: "Khufu Guild?" That Nelle Robbie? I don't hate this man, but are you sure this guy is smart enough? β
"Being able to save most of the guild's vitality from that man's plan, I think that little guy is not very smart, but at least not stupid."
"Hehe, you're right, there are only two smart people, and the others can only be regarded as not stupid!" The girl said with a half-squinted smile in her eyes.
It is clear that one of the smart people is naturally herself, and the other ......
"What a man I like! Whether it was the last Mobius project, or the Lasgard parade this time, before I could win, he brutally broke my dreams, what a villain! Although the girl said this, there was no angry expression on her face.
The spoiling in the eyes of the old butler Fairman became more and more intense, it can be said that he grew up watching this little master, and from a very young age, this princess has shown great talent and intelligence.
After serving the little master for fifteen years, how could the old butler not know the thoughts of Her Royal Highness the princess.
"It seems that His Highness is satisfied?"
"Hmmm! Satisfied! Very satisfied! Only such a man is qualified to stand in front of me. The girl stretched out her soft wattle and put it in front of her, "Only such a man is qualified to get everything from me and inherit this bloodline!" β
The old butler bowed deeply: "Her Royal Highness the princess's wish will definitely come true!" Old Fehrman guaranteed! β
Not long ago, the descendant of William the Conqueror was still the man who was most likely to reach this position in the world, but unfortunately, in front of the death knight, this genius who had suppressed a generation of young talents throughout Europe ended up becoming a revenant under the sword, and was easily solved by a thug under that man, which made him disappointed, and he also admired his little master's vision more and more.
The girl had only glanced at the picture of Arides, and threw the carefully photographed thing into the trash with disdain.
"Like a toy chicken with beautiful feathers all over the party!" That's how the girl used to describe Arrydes.
"Now I'm more and more sure that there must be one, and even several Apostles of the Devouring Serpent, behind that angel Raphael." The girl said, "Even I, relying on hundreds of guilds and alliances and a lot of experiments, I have found a more suitable organizational structure and guild system, and that woman's Angel Covenant has the most complete system structure from the beginning, this is not something that the naΓ―ve girl can come up with by herself, but more like that man's handwriting!" β
"You're right, Your Highness! It took us nearly a year before and after, using more than 4,000 people, including think tanks in almost all fields, to conduct experiments in guilds, mercenary groups, adventure teams, and other groups of various sizes and forms, and until now we can barely develop a set of effective organizational structure and operation system, and according to our investigation, that woman established this entire system and established the Angel Covenant less than two months after entering the game. The old butler shook his head, "I don't believe that all this is the work of that angel Raphael. β
A flash of light flashed in the girl's eyes: "That's why I tried my best to get Qianyue into the Devouring Snake and became an apostle, I thought I could catch that man's tail, but I didn't expect him to hide so deeply." β
"Miss Qianyue came through the news through secret channels a few days ago, and it has been confirmed that the several main guilds of the elf clan are not mixed with that man, so the scope of the investigation has been narrowed by more than half, but unfortunately, the undead clan is still in darkness now, and it is difficult for our manpower to gain the trust of those hunting regiments, it seems that the man is very vigilant, and would rather reduce the number of hunting regiments available in his hands than easily let those untrusted hunting regiments participate in his plan." The old butler sighed, deeply disappointed that he had been struggling with the undead.
The girl chuckled and said, "It's really difficult, but it's not a good thing, even we can't penetrate into it, you can imagine how difficult it is for others to find out the depth of that pool of water in the undead clan!" Isn't that right? I'll be disappointed if my future man can't even do that. β
"So, do you want to give up further infiltration of the undead?" The old butler asked, compared to the smooth progress of other races, the undead clan has become a hot potato in their hands, and a large amount of money has been invested in it, but they can't see the benefits at all, and anyone who changes it will lose confidence.
"Yes, do you want to give up?" The girl pondered for a moment, "How are the other things going?" β
"In addition to the same mysterious First Apostle, the information of several other Apostles has been confirmed, and they are all incredible characters! Although it is not as good as His Royal Highness, it is also a pivotal talent, I really don't know how that man gathered this group of people! The old butler exclaimed, "Now it seems that the key to the Devouring Serpent lies in the First Apostle and the Sixth Apostle. β
"I also feel this way, I always feel that these two guys are more elusive than others, that man always likes to attract attention with all kinds of big events, but every time he hides himself well, obviously put under the spotlight, but really wants to see everything about him, only to find that all he sees is a fog." The girl picked up a strand of hair and circled it around her fingers, "And that First Apostle is even more strange, until now, no one has seen what that guy's character looks like, it can't be that there is not even a role!" β
"The investigation of the executor and the executor candidate is all over, except for a few guys with stories, the others are easy to see through, by the way, a few days ago, when I re-examined the information of the executor candidate's past with the wind, I found a little special place, and after repeated confirmation, it is now almost certain that the true identity of the executor No. 13, the soul eater blade Alan Shadow Song." The old butler said.
The girl was visibly intrigued by the old butler's words: "Tell me about it! What is the origin of our Soul Eater Blade, known as the strongest killer! β
"Very shocking!" The old butler used the word shock, which made the girl's face change slightly, you know, since serving this family, there is almost nothing in this world that can shock the old butler.
The girl lifted her delicate eyes and looked at the old butler, her eyes full of eagerness to understand.
"Executor No. 13, Soul Eater Blade Alan Shadow Song, is said to be one of the first executors when the Body Eater Serpent was founded, and has been following the Death Knight Ice Whisper Dry Bone Operation for a long time, according to our investigation, the earliest players who witnessed him can confirm that in addition to the Death Knight Ice Whisper Dry Bone and the Soul Eater Blade Alan Shadow Song, there are also the necromancer Thunder Light, now known as the Mobile Battery, and the Soul Priest Keldila Weaver of the Dark Redeemer, and the earliest sighting location is Orgrimmar, the main city of the Orcs." The old butler said.
"This is the information in the game, what I want to know is, what kind of character is this guy? Regarding the identity of Alan Yingge, there have been a lot of speculations since he became famous, some people say that he is a professional killer in reality, some people say that he is the ace of special forces in a certain country, and some people are even more outrageous, saying that he is the ultimate weapon cultivated by an ancient family, hehe, I don't believe any of them anyway. The girl waved her hand, scoffing at the remarks.
The old butler nodded: "You are right, but in fact, it is really more amazing than these baseless speculations, this undead killer who stands at the peak of assassins, in reality is just a college student, his father is an armed policeman in the northern city of Harbin, China, and his mother is an ordinary teacher, as for himself, his real name is Chen Tao, he has only received some basic training from his father since he was a child, and it may be useful to strengthen his body, but if he wants to say that there are any killing techniques, it is simply impossible." β
The old butler's words made the girl leave the back of the sofa: "Is this true? So how could he possibly have such technology? That's not the effect that can be shaped by simple training or teaching, it's clearly an instinct that can only be exercised by wandering on the edge of life and death for a long time and killing countless targets! β
"I didn't believe it at first, but after repeated confirmation, I can confirm that there is no problem with this information, and Soul Eater Ellan Shadow Song is indeed an ordinary college student!"
"Hehe, the top killer turned out to be just a college student who hasn't even killed anyone?" The girl said with a contemptuous face, but soon her face became solemn, "Since it is not the ability he himself already has, that is, who has cultivated him to what he is now, in less than a year!" Who cultivates ...... That man? It's that man! That's right, it must be that man!! β
"On top of that, we found something interesting when we confirmed it!" The old butler said, "Although it has not been confirmed yet, there is a high probability that the necromancer Lei Guang and the revenant priest Keldila Weaver are both Chen Tao's college roommates, and one of them is obviously secretly cooperating with a certain country's intelligence agency!" β
"Secret cooperation?" The girl muttered to herself, "No, now is not the time to delve into this, now that you have found the true identities of these three guys, what about the man?" β
"I'm sorry, Your Highness Princess!" The old butler's answer disappointed the girl, "After confirming the identity of Alan Shadow Song, we immediately conducted a detailed examination of the people around him, unfortunately, many of them may be Ice Whisper Dry Bone, but in my opinion and the entire think tank, I am afraid that none of them are real death knights." β
The girl's face showed obvious disappointment, but she quickly recovered: "That's right! How could such a cunning, forbearing, ruthless, and obviously extremely deep guy make it so easy for people to find their true identity. Chizuki once told me that it seems that the Second Apostle also spent a lot of effort to search for the identity of that man, but in the end it was in vain, although the power of the family is much stronger than that of the Mikawa group, but at the bottom of those Asian countries, our tentacles are not stronger than those indigenous forces. β
"So, what should we do with Alan Shadowsong? Do you want to bring him here? If you use the power of the family, it is not difficult to bring an ordinary Chinese person here without knowing it. The old butler asked.
The girl shook her head: "If it had been a year ago, I might have agreed to this proposal, but now, I can only give up this tempting decision." Don't underestimate a powerful player like Alan Shadowsong, they are beyond common sense, no one knows how much physical fitness these guys have been strengthened now, rather than scare the snake because of rash action, I would rather keep this bait to catch another big fish! β
"Is Your Highness trying to find out the Death Knight through Alan Shadowsong?"
"That's right!" A look of fascination appeared on the girl's face, "I really want to know, what kind of existence that man is, now it is certain that he is definitely the first player to enter the world of Entagre, and it is even possible that he is the only existence that knows the origin of this mysterious game, who is he?" What kind of power does he have? What can he bring me? I can't help but get excited when I think about it! β
"Looks like you're having fun!"
"That's right, it's an excitement I haven't felt since I was seven years old! My blood is in the throes of the race, you know, Grandpa Fairman, I even fantasized that man was stronger than my ancestor! How nice it would be if this was true! If that man is really so powerful, even if he is crushed under him and becomes his trophy, I think it is an honor! β
