Durand had never seen a woman like Sophie.

There is no doubt that Sophie is a very beautiful woman. Although she is noble and elegant in temperament, she is not as good as Andrea; In terms of beauty, she is not as good as the white tiger. But her mystery and charm that come out of her bones are amazingly killing to all men. Durand is no exception. Sophie is the kind of woman who makes men want to fall in love at a glance.

And now, she has shown Durand another side of herself hidden beneath the appearance of mature charm: madness.

This is a very crazy woman.

So far, Durand has never seen a helpless woman who can stand in front of him like Sophie and say loudly: "I can give you what you want, but you also have to give me what I want." It's a deal! ”

Trade?

Joke......

A woman without any combat power, a woman who was almost strangled to death by a slap just now, it's good to be able to stand firm in front of Duland, this Sophie still has the courage to talk about a deal?

But Durand looked into the other party's eyes and knew that this woman was not joking, she thought in her heart that she could trade with Duland!

After the confusion and seduction in the woman's eyes disappeared, all that was left was almost paranoid firmness.

Durand looked deeply, deeply into her pupils and saw something called "ambition."

"Let's be clear." Durand's eyelids closed slightly, and when he raised it again, he had returned to his calmest state, and he looked at the woman in front of him with a scrutinizing gaze and asked, "First of all, what can you give me?" ”

Sophie also looked at the man in front of her, and she knew that this was the time to change her fate.

Taking a deep breath, Sophie said seriously, "I don't know why you're so interested in all kinds of classic materials, and I'm not qualified to know. But I can see that you're not just watching, or else. You don't let your army move around and stay here all day. I can tell from your eyes that you really want to find something out of these books! ”

Durand smiled slightly, and did not hesitate to praise himself: "Amazing observation, ma'am, please continue." ”

Hearing Durand's change in the name of herself, Sophie's beautiful eyes flashed with joy, and she continued: "My husband was very close to a group of scholars during his lifetime. He is an avid reader. I had a good chat with a few scholars.

Three years ago, those scholars expressed some doctrines and statements that should not be expressed, you know, about the existence of the heterotopic plane, and as a result, they were suppressed by the Yonghui higher-ups, and suffered a very bloody purge.

Scholars were killed. Caught caught caught catches. However, some of their core research results and materials are preserved, hidden in a secret place. I've heard my husband mention it a few times, right in the middle of town. If you want, I can take you right now.

Those scholars have a wide range of fields of study, and I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for. ”

Sophie said as she watched Duland's reaction closely. But Durand didn't show anything out of the ordinary. The face is always calm, and people can't see through what is going on inside.

Listening to Sophie's words, he lowered his head and groaned.

Honestly, he's already tempted.

There is a group of scholars gathered in the central holy city of Yonghui - a matter that Durand had known for a long time, and Vivien's grandfather was once one of them, and was later sent to the "cross trial" for arguing about the existence of the heterogeneous plane.

Scholars have studied a wide range of fields, from dimensional history to racial mysteries. and then to astrology, observation, and the discussion of various theories of the heterogeneous plane......

If the research results left by scholars are about the heterotope, then Durand is not really very interested, and he, the visitor from the heterotope, already knows well enough.

But if it's about the history of the plane, Durand is very interested, and that's exactly what he needs right now, and he wants to understand what happened to this plane.

While Durand pondered, Sophie didn't say anything more. What should be said has already been said.

She looked at Durand a little nervously, the light in her eyes getting brighter and brighter, expecting something. At the same time, I was afraid of something.

In her feelings, Durand thought for a long, long time before she spoke again and said something that made Sophie ecstatic: "Sue me, what do you want?" ”

"Your Excellency believes me?" She was so excited that her body trembled slightly.

Durand smiled and repeated, "What do you want?" ”

Sophie calmed down, stared into Duland's eyes, and said slowly, "I want wealth and power, I want a position that matches my abilities, I ...... I want to be happy and free! ”

"Uh......"

Durand touched his nose and said helplessly, "Can you be specific?" It's too general for me to understand. ”

Sophie smiled lightly, and in the blink of an eye, she reverted to the appearance of a mysterious and seductive little woman, and whispered: "What I want is actually just a chance!" ”

"Opportunity?"

"Yes! An opportunity for me to prove my worth! Sophie's eyes flashed with an indescribable light, and her tone was almost reverent, "As for what kind of opportunity it is, I don't really care, it's all up to you, my lord." But I really don't want to stay in this well-walled city. ”

She paused slightly and continued: "I will do a lot of things, I am proficient in arithmetic and management, and I can help you manage army logistics if you need it." I have a good sense of observation and a good ability to see people, so I can be a staff officer by your side. Ah, I'm still a magician, and although I've missed the best age to cultivate, I'll work hard to cultivate as long as you need to! Of course, I'm still a woman, and I think I'm a good person. If you need someone to go to/bed, I'm fine. But I have to say it in advance, I will not be willing to be just a plaything and a bed/companion! ”

Durand listened attentively, and then made a succinct assessment: "It's ambitious. ”

Sophie was not embarrassed at all and admitted frankly: "You are quite right. ”

Durand spread his hands and said, "But I haven't decided the winner between Yonghui and me, you are so anxious to stand in line, aren't you afraid that if I am defeated?" People who are on the wrong side of the line don't do well in the game. ”

"It's not about winning or losing!" Sophie said firmly, "Yonghui seems to be angry6, but in fact he is rigid, stubborn, hypocritical, and superficial!" Immersed in the ridiculous fairy tale of 'Yonghui Supremacy', I can't extricate myself. Look at this city, the walls are heavy and heavy, it's ridiculous, it's boring! It's so boring that it's desperate. My lord, I'm here for you. I have been observing you and your army these days, and I believe that you are the one who can give me the opportunity to realize my self-worth. ”

The woman spoke very seriously, without any compliments at all, and simply said what was in her heart.

After listening to so much, Durand already has some understanding of Sophie's psychology.

The Central Holy City is a place with strong walls, and except for the privileged class in the pure white holy tower, everyone else does not have much freedom, but has all kinds of rules and constraints.

For example, Sophie, Durand has already seen that she is actually a magician, but her own attributes are biased towards darkness. There is no big problem for this kind of person to be placed in a certain nobleman in the big 6, but she has a problem as the wife of a Yonghui nobleman. A countess in the Holy City cannot be a dark mage. So she didn't dare to cultivate, and she couldn't cultivate.

"Whew." Durand exhaled, and now that the words were clear, things were simpler.

What the other party can give is what they want. And what the other party wants is just a gesture for Duland.

And he always felt that a woman who had just died her husband and could negotiate a deal with her husband and enemy without scruples must have something extraordinary, and maybe it would really be useful in the future.

Of course, the immediate priority is to get the benefits in hand first.

Smack, smack, smack. Durand slapped his palms three times in a row.

Sophie was a little puzzled, and then saw the door suddenly open, and a red-robed man and a blue-robed man walked in side by side.

For a moment, Sophie almost thought she was dazzled - these two people who walked in, looking at their looks and sizes, were clearly Duland! What's going on?

Under her shocked and inexplicable gaze, the ice and fire clone walked up to Durand, turned into two knives, and put them into the scabbard on Duland's waist.

Durand patted the scabbard, then looked at the stunned woman and said, "Lead the way, ma'am." ”
