Chapter 11: The Living Puppet

The agreed location is in a high-end private restaurant, which is almost the best kept secret in Red Sand City.

Basically, those who can enter and exit here are the real bigwigs in Red Sand City, and at worst, they are also characters with heads and faces.

Consumption here is very expensive, you can't imagine that boiled water, which is hardly sold outside, costs ten silver coins here.

Not to mention the consumption of other food, as the name suggests aristocratic restaurants.

Naturally, people who can come here don't value so much money, here, they are all rich characters, and what they value more is face.

No one would rather lose face in order to save that little bit of money.

The minimum consumption here is no less than dozens of gold coins.

It is impossible to say that such a restaurant has no background.

Mark had already booked a room here, it was a high-grade kind, and a meal required a box fee of thirty gold coins.

Originally, if he could, he would definitely hang the best private room, but he didn't have the right.

Before Joxiu came, he was still worried that the young master like the other party, who was accustomed to the luxury of the nobility, would blame him for his disadvantage.

Thankfully, Mark was relieved when he saw Joshua's unsatisfactory face.

"It's good for a lowly person like you to get a room like this."

Mark smiled flatteringly, "That's that......"

Hell, aristocrats are always looking for ways to show off their differences.

But thanks to this, he was spared a scolding.

The agreed buyer is already sitting on the other side of the table.

This was Joshua's request, and he felt that it was intolerable for him to wait for someone else.

In this regard, Mark said that he understood very much, and he also had a high opinion of Joh's identity.

The buyer's whole body was shrouded in a black robe, and even his face was so tightly wrapped that he couldn't see his appearance clearly.

"You...... It is...... That's expensive...... Tribe? ”

The other man spoke, using a mechanical accent that sounded like a disguise.

Unhurriedly, Joxiu pulled out a chair, sat down, crossed his legs and clasped his hands, and sneered.

"Isn't it rude to use a mere puppet to negotiate? Especially in front of a nobleman. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The black-robed man was silent for a while, and then spoke again: "You, not one, nobleman. ”

"No...... What purpose do you have? ”

As soon as the other party first met, it didn't take long for him to debunk the intention of the covenant.

This made him have to sigh and praise, "Yes, yes, you are a disciple of Lexya?" ”

"You!"

The hood of the black robe, suddenly falling, showed a miserable white face that was almost like a dead man.

This sickly paleness is very abnormal!

Mark was on the side, with a vague premonition of uneasiness, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

He did not dare to run away, for the dangerous young man, who did not seem to be a nobleman, glanced at him absently.

This glance chilled his heart......

Yoxiu raised his hand to suppress it, and the other party also remained silent with interest, for which he had to praise the other party's psychological strength again.

Joshua didn't have the panic of being exposed, and picked up the glass of wine on the table that was placed in front of him.

This cup is worth no less than a few gold coins.

Quietly tasted it, and said: "I once thought that controlling a brave general is equivalent to having a good army, and a good army can fight on a battlefield. ”

"With every victory, you can bring a wider territory."

"With enough territory, a kingdom can be created."

"When you become a king, countless people will pay tribute, sing the praises of my greatness, my glory, and will sprinkle every inch of the land."

"If you control a king directly, you will get his kingdom."

"It's just one 'kingdom.'"

Josius drank the purple crystal wine, and he put it down on the table with a crisp sound.

"There is a group of people like this in the worldβ€”"

"They are able to use deception, misunderstanding, and secrecy as skillfully as a soldier wields a weapon."

"Those people see lying and manipulation as their tools. Just as a hammer can be used to build a house or to break heads, so deception and manipulation can be used for good or evil purposes. ”

"A whispered lie, as long as it drifts into the right ear, can make life miserable."

"But a false smile and a few sweet words can also open the door to communication, turn enemies into friends, and even end wars."

"They are often considered prodigals, thieves, spies, and puppet masters."

"Although they also make peace, no one has ever identified with these heroes behind the scenes."

"Conspirators, careerists, and thieves are the names they get the most."

"Throughout all the history of the Qilun Continent, it is not difficult to find that they have appeared in many major events."

"What if someone takes control of this group?"

"You say, does that mean ......?"

"You're too ambitious."

In a dark corner, another black-robed man appeared, and the words just now came out of his mouth.

He took off the hood of his black robe, revealing a delicate face.

It should be said that it was her.

She was a good-looking half-elf girl with long yellow hair and beautiful woody green eyes.

"Oh, you are?"

"Sufena, Lexya's third disciple."

Yoxiu nodded, "Yes, although I deliberately showed the flaw, but it is rare that you can see it." ”

"He is worthy of being a disciple of Lexya, and he is much better than other fools."

"It's just your ** puppet, it doesn't seem to be very well mastered."

Pointing to the middle-aged man with a pale face, Yoxiu said lightly, making people unpredictable.

"That's not my puppet, it's the second senior brother's."

"I personally don't like this kind of puppet, it's just that the second senior brother has something to leave, and I will temporarily come forward on his behalf."

As she spoke, Sufena glanced at the middle-aged puppet with a little disgust.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Sufena seems to see a hint of approval on Joxiu's face.

"You, yes."

"How I am, it's not your turn to judge." Sufena sneered, she has been a very qualified existence in the group since she was a child.

Even her master, a master of fraud who can turn a papal see, is full of praise for her.

Joshua shook his head, not explaining anything.

In the past, in order to advance to the legendary class Destiny Manipulator, no one knew what shocking things he had done.

"Tell your purpose, or you'll know the end."

"Fools are not just a bunch of liars who can only speak with their tongues!"

This is true, in the impression of many people, a group of fools has no other merit than to play conspiracy.

But only those who really know their strength will know how terrible they are.

Yoxiu didn't hide anything, and directly said the purpose of this trip, and in a few simple words, he hit Sufena's psychological defense line hard!

"I'm for an old promiseβ€”"

"The Fraudster's Oath."

He stared straight at Sufena, who could no longer maintain a calm face, and said lightly.
