Chapter Seventy-Nine: Be Honest and Honest
"The Prime Minister should have told you. Randy's voice drifted in from outside the carriage, looking attentive.
"Oh, then why give Anne to Kuwait, it feels like you don't really have a pursuit of the star, not to mention, god-killing. ”
As soon as Zhou Lie's words came out, except for Leila, the other two people in the carriage were obviously shocked by the god-killing mentioned by Zhou Lie at the end.
"It's already like that, there's really no way, similar things have happened before, but in order to ensure the stability of the star carving, and the implementation of the final plan, it's better for the host of the star carving to go to Tionlis, after all, it is the magic city. Randy said.
The precedent must be Layla.
"Slowly, slowly, little brother, what are you talking about killing gods?" interrupted Alfred with a raised hand.
"Oh, don't you know, Bobolini told me that the purpose of collecting the star carvings was to kill the gods, and that it was a hundred-year project, and that he had patience to take his time. Zhou Lie said.
It seems that I promised to keep it secret, but I didn't say that I couldn't say it in this team.
"We've never heard of anything like that. Alfred yelled at Randy, "Hey, you lied to me when you said you could find Startick and kill my wife?"
"I didn't lie to you, but it won't be the power of the stars that saved your father, but our doctor, and the moment my report returned to Babylon, there was already a royal court doctor, who went to your house. Randy said lightly.
"Didn't you say that ordinary methods can't be cured?"
"It's just a verbal inducement to you, what, now you're going to quit?"
Alfred was rarely silent in the face of Randy's rhetorical questioning, and it looked like he had a reason to hold on.
And what about the knight?
Fried was still so silent, as if he was looking down to think about things, Zhou Lie frowned, and said in a mocking tone, "It seems that you all say different things to me and us, and it is also a simple matter for you to deceive a little girl like Layla, right?"
Stopping the carriage, Randy turned to face inside the car and looked at Zhou Lie.
"What do you want to say?"
"Your real purpose, don't tell me anything about the ethereal killing of gods, even if there are cultural differences, but we royals, the interests pursued are the same, this kind of thankless thing, I won't believe it, and your relationship with Tionlis doesn't seem to be a simple alliance, I'm right. ”
Not only Zhou Lie, Layla, Alfred, and Fred, who had been silent, all stared at Randy, waiting for his next step.
"Your Excellency Alfred, collecting money to do things is the style of your business, and I assure you in the name of the Prime Minister that there will be no change in what I promised you, and what I promised will definitely be done. ”
"Okay, with your words, I feel at ease. ”
Randy then looked at Fried, "Lord Fried, the honor and glory of your sword will one day be revealed. ”
Fried nodded.
"And then there's Layla, I'm not familiar with magic, but I don't think those ancient books are deceiving, otherwise we're all victims, but I can assure you that the Empire will guarantee the moment Miss Layla witnesses the root magic. ”
"This is one of my long-cherished wishes, but before that, there are many questions that need to be explained. Layla said with a frown.
"I can't answer those questions, but when I return to Babylon, I'll take you to the Prime Minister. ”
Finally, Randy looked at Zhou Lie.
Zhou Lie has no interest in them, but he has already involved the core of their plan, for various considerations, at that time, Bobolini hid half of the information, in order to unknowingly make this man the winner of the empire, but he didn't expect the other party to be so keen at this moment, wanting to know the whole picture of the plan.
"If I say that I will ask the prime minister after I go to Babylon, I don't know if you are satisfied. ”
"Hmph, you're talking nonsense, if you can't get the three of them to listen, let them get out of the car, we'll just talk about it behind closed doors. Zhou Lie naturally would not accept this condition, otherwise the point of making trouble halfway would be gone.
In the face of Bopolini's old fox, it is still Randy's smiling tiger that is easy to deal with, and even if he can't ask for all the information, at least he has to dig up some clues.
Randy shook his head, "Actually, even I have no way of knowing what His Majesty the Emperor and the Prime Minister want to do, only that it is part of a larger plan, but you should know that the best lie is to say a few true and only one false out of ten things." ”
"But that lie, that's the point. ”
Randy spreads his hands, "At least I can tell you that the god-killing thing is true, and the rest of the things, please go to Babylon." ”
"Enough, I don't want to hear that again. Zhou Lie fanned his hands in annoyance, "If you really don't know anything, that prime minister will never put you into this team, you are the gatekeeper of this team, even if you want to pretend garlic, you can't pretend to be it!"
Putting away his usual smile, Randy asked, "Anyway, ask?"
"That's right. ”
"Why do you think Alfred and Fried are here?" said Randy.
Before Fried made a move, Zhou Lie sensed the other party's intentions, but the other party was two people, no matter how fast he reacted, in this small carriage, there were places where he couldn't react.
Not to mention Layla.
Just as Zhou Lie restrained Fried's hand with his sword, Alfred's knife had already reached Layla's neck.
"Collect money to do things, don't blame me, in fact, there are one or twenty magicians who died on my knife, I advise you not to think about talking, I don't want to cut the little girl's neck." ”
"For the bearers of the Star Carving, we naturally have the means to secure them, in fact, as a last resort, and I don't want that either. Randy said.
At first, Zhou Lie only felt that these two people were just ordinary powerhouses, but now it seems that the two of them are no worse than him, and they can even touch the side of the knight king.
"Let go of Layla. Zhou Lie said in a cold voice, the people who came along the way changed their faces in an instant, he didn't think about it, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.
"My employer is them, and not long ago, didn't you want to woo the two of us? Alfred raised an eyebrow.
Layla's face was pale, although for her, she could invoke the water element without a spell, but without the idea and strength to kill with one hit, Layla did not dare to make a move.
Sighing, Zhou Lie let go of the hand holding Frid, and compromised, "I want a guarantee." ”
"That's natural, you are entitled to this guarantee, at first we did not think it through, since we are a cooperative relationship, we should not hide anything, but please go back to Babylon to talk about it in detail. ”
Randy waved his hand, and Alfred removed the knife, and with a flip of his wrist, he tucked the knife into his sleeve, and the tension in the carriage eased.
After such a play, none of the four people in the carriage were as relaxed as they had always been, and Randy was still driving outside as if nothing had happened.
"I'm sorry, little girl, uncle, I'm just collecting money to do things, hehe. Alfred laughed with a hippie smile.
"But that knife, you really dare to look at it, right? Zhou Lie stared at the other party and said.
"Haha, I don't want to hurt such a cute little girl, so it's best not to get to that point, after all, I also have someone I want to protect. ”
"Hmph. ”
Layla, who had just received the fright, had not yet reflected the situation just now, and when she heard Alfred's voice, she touched the side of her neck, and seemed to be able to feel the sharp and cold knife, which could cut her throat in the next second.
Suddenly, the carriage stopped.
"What's wrong again?"
"It's Warcraft. Randy said, "Well, I won't bother you two this time, Fried, and Alfred, let's get to work." ”
"Tsk, I really like to call people, obviously relying on the little girl's magic, it can be over in three or two clicks, and now it will be stained with blood again. Alfred scratched his head, and in a moment two knives appeared in his hands.
"Collect money to do things, that's all. Fried silently picked up his sword and jumped out of the carriage.
On the way from Babylon, everyone has encountered many magical beasts, but they are all small wave attacks, which is not a big threat, every time Layla gives a little blow and threat, the other party will flee, and in rare cases, the remaining three will be allowed to shoot.
This time, Randy probably also had the idea of using this battle to show the strength of the two.
The monsters that attacked were a group of wolf beasts, some of them had mutated, grown two heads, and would use some low-level magic, if there were three heads, then the best way was to escape, because no one could face a magician who could use the three systems without chanting for even a second.
The two-headed demon wolf is also a rather tricky enemy for ordinary adventurers, but the two who got off the car to fight didn't seem to have any pressure.
Wielding a huge crosssword, Fried rushed into the wolves first, his huge body as stable and sturdy as a moving fortress, and countless wolves were knocked away by his body, like a sharp sword, cutting through the wolves.
And Alfred is like a ghost in the forest, elusive, obviously in front of him is also an open field, but every time he makes a move, it is in the dead corner of those wolves, if it weren't for Zhou Lie in the best position to watch the battle, I'm afraid he wouldn't know how the other party's weird body technique was performed.
Wailing, wailing, wailing.
The blade sinks into the flesh, and the blood splatters.
The two didn't cooperate at all, and their backs were basically empty, but none of the wolves found a chance to sneak up on them, no wolf could stop Fred's charge, and no wolf could pass through Alfred's defense.
"It's really amazing. Zhou Lie snorted coldly, there are people outside the world, there are heavens outside the sky, at this moment, he finally understood.
The ghost blows the lamp
