With Wright's addition, Ioros informed Douglas of everything that had happened on Dragon's Lair in the past two days.

And throughout the whole process, the young godfather just nodded from time to time, and did not ask any additional details, until the two of them finished reporting, and he took over the conversation.

Douglas: "So, the current Dragon's Lair should already be the world of the Anemo God Cult?" ”

Wright: "I'm afraid so... You know, for the uncivilized islanders, the power of religion has always been magical. ”

"Don't look at this problem so extremely, in fact, if you look at this as a management model, there is still a lot to learn from it" Douglas paused, but did not seem to intend to expand on this issue "Of course, there are two different ways for the Osiris family to deal with the current special case, it all depends on your attitude. ”

Douglas turned to look at Ioros.

"I'm just offering advice, if you're willing to join Osiris and become a member of our family, then we'll share all the hatred with you, including the disposition of Orleans and the Aeolus cult."

"Will you help me get revenge?"

"Yes, but until the time comes, we will never enter the Dragon's Lair again."

Wright: "Godfather? ”

Douglas's reply came as a bit of a surprise to the navigator ... In his opinion, not only to gain the favor of Ioros and the other inhabitants of the Dragon's Lair, but also to open up the route between the open sea and the Dragon's Lair as soon as possible, even if it is purely for the sake of those rare minerals of great value.

But in fact, listening to the meaning of what he said just now, the young godfather did not plan to develop Dragon's Nest Island in the near future.

Douglas: "Happiness is the easiest and most straightforward way to deal with it, but if you want to be a victor, it's not enough to just follow instinct, you might as well think about it, even if I send someone into the dragon's lair to kill Orleans right now, will the other followers of the Aeolus Cult thank us?" ”

The godfather did not wait for the two to answer, and directly gave the answer: "No, they have been brainwashed by religion, they will only be more convinced that we are those demons that exist in the teachings, and then cause a wider conflict." The only way to completely dismantle this prejudice is to open the passage between the dragon's nest and the outside world, so that this isolated 'Taoyuan' island can be reintegrated into the world map. ”

Ioros: "Then let's do it!" Anyway, we have found a safe route under the sea! ”

"Yes, it's not difficult for me at all, and by opening up trade, the Osiris family can even make a big profit from it, but that's exactly the problem."

Douglas tapped his fingers lightly on the table and continued, "You may not know, but Orleans, the High Priest who founded the Aeolus Cult on the island, was a pirate involved in the Dragon's Lair exploration program thirty years ago... Do you understand what that means? ”

In response to the godfather's question, Wright and Ioros looked puzzled at the same time, so Douglas continued to explain.

"There is no doubt that Orleans is definitely a skilled pirate captain to be able to grow up to this extent in the Dragon's Lair, but compared to the entire sea, the height he can reach is only like this - compared to those who really hold great power and are in the power of people, Orleans is just a minion who can't put it on the table, and has no reference value at all."

"And the risk of navigation is precisely this, the value of the huge treasure contained in the Dragon's Nest Island is beyond your imagination, once we open up the connection between the inside and outside of the Dragon's Nest, the events of thirty years ago will repeat themselves again... Why do you think Charles disappeared on his own initiative, and even never mentioned anything about the entrance to the Dragon's Den for so many years? ”

"Greed is the most effective stimulant in the world, and at the slightest rumor, those bloodthirsty predators will tear off the veil of hypocrisy and participate in this battle without restraint, and at that time, the potential threat to the dragon's lair will no longer be Orleans, but more and more terrifying giants."

"I am unwilling and unable to let the Osiris family take this risk, so until I have enough strength, I will not consider opening the route, or even use this route again."

With that last sentence, Douglas regained his silence and waited quietly for Ioros to make a decision, without using other, more inflammatory inducements.

Ioros: "But... The Aeolus Cult is a cult, and they are deceiving people! ”

Douglas: "Religion is inherently false, and those that are conducive to maintaining stability are called beliefs, and those that are radical enough to influence the rule of the world government are considered cults, so doctrines, creeds and things like that don't matter to me at all, what matters is whether we can get what we need from them." ”

"What the Dragon's Lair needs now is stability, at least until we have enough strength, so letting the Wind God Sect temporarily exist is just to reduce unnecessary losses."

With that, Douglas held out his right hand to Ioros

"Maybe you can't agree with me right now, but if you choose to join Osiris, I'm willing to give you a chance... Before the day comes when you will be able to distinguish right from wrong on your own and take responsibility for the future of the Dragon's Lair, give you a chance to learn and improve. ”

"So, what about your answer?"
