Chapter 538: Deliberation
Dean and the princess stepped out of the carriage and walked down the hallway, heading inside.
This is not the residence or study of King Gaosai, but the residence of the princess of Gaosai - unlike the two princes of Gaosai, although the princess of Gaosai also has a mansion outside the Golden City, most of the time, she still lives in the Golden City, and at this time it has been tacitly approved by the previous king of Gaosai.
Therefore, most of the outside world is talking about how King Gao Sai 'loves' this daughter.
As for the facts?
Dean naturally knows it.
A 'blood bag' that may be used at any time is naturally as close to yourself as possible.
"Your Highness is waiting for you in the study!"
The king's housekeeper stood in front of the door, pushed the door open for Dean, bowed down, and invited Dean to enter.
"Hmm!"
Dean nodded and strode in.
The king's housekeeper did not follow, but closed the door and stood in front of it, acting as a guard.
Dean entered the outer room of the study, and along an outer cloister, into the inner room.
On the large desk, stacks of texts are piled up.
Some are paper, others are in the form of parchment rolls.
And the girl of Gao Sai, dressed in casual clothes, was holding a quill pen, frowning and checking a copy of the text in her hand, and she didn't even notice Dean who walked in.
Dean didn't bother the Princess.
Instead, he stood quietly on the side, waiting for the other party's approval.
Dean's eyes looked at the preoccupied princess of Gosai, and his heart was clear-
If you want to get it, you have to pay.
Especially after being in a high position. It is much more than ordinary people think.
It's like the princess of the high race in front of you. After choosing the throne again. She had to give up something.
The fatigue that no one knows about is just the beginning.
The trade-off, the battle between conscience and interest is the real difficulty.
Of course, if interests can be supreme and conscience can be extinguished, a qiē will naturally come naturally.
Minutes and seconds passed.
When the princess put down the parchment roll in her hand, she saw Dean standing on one side.
"Dean!"
With a gleeful voice, the princess stood up from her chair. I'm going to walk towards Dean.
Apparently, however, she immediately noticed that this seemed to be inappropriate, and immediately, without a trace, pulled the rope on the side of the table, and with the crunch of a bell, bypassed the desk and stood in front of Dean.
"Let's talk there!"
The princess pointed to the door on the inner side of the study, behind which was a relaxation room with tables and chairs, but there were no more games to play. For example, the aristocracy's favorite brand equipment and fencing equipment are not even available. Just simple tables and chairs.
When Dean sat down with the princess, the princess appeared with a tea set.
The black tea with a rich aroma and the elegant tea were placed in front of the two of them. The king's housekeeper bowed and left the study quickly and lightly.
"Did Marsar tell you?"
Holding the teacup, the princess of Gao Sai turned the mouth of the cup, her eyes drooped slightly and looked at the red tea soup in the tea bowl, her voice was soft with a hint of tiredness.
"Well, that's it! What are you going to do? ”
Dean nodded and asked straight.
The two sides are still in an alliance relationship, so naturally they don't need those fancy temptations.
"I want to completely break away from the control of the Cult!"
The princess raised her head and said in a firm tone.
"With the help of the Cult, it will be much easier for you to ascend to the throne!"
Dean and the Lady of Gosai stared at each other.
"I want the throne so much, but I don't want to be a puppet!"
The princess of Gao Sai calmly said her ambitions, this was the first time she had said it directly.
Perhaps, there have been rumors in the outside world for a long time, but the princess of Gao Sai has not admitted it in any public or private occasion.
But in the face of Dean, the princess of Gosai didn't want to hide it.
In addition to getting the help they deserve, it's more that they don't want to deceive the person in front of them.
"What can the Cult of God do to threaten you? Is it a contract? Or record crystals? ”
Dean nodded again, then asked.
Dean was happy to accept the choice of the princess of the high race, after all, it left him with quite a lot of trouble.
At least, both sides don't have to tear their faces.
"It's the Record Crystal - although the Cult of God has always insisted on using contracts as a bond, but the identity of my princess has made this plan have to be put on hold, after all, there is no shortage of wizards around my father who can detect such means as contracts! This is me...... For the first time, I feel lucky to have the status of a princess! ”
The princess replied, an inexplicable wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
As for her former identity as a 'blood bag', the princess of Gao Sai can't let go of it now, and even for a long time in the future.
"Record crystals?"
Dean breathed a sigh of relief.
Compared to contracts, record crystals are undoubtedly much easier to solve.
If it's really like Kardashian/Mivier, things are much more troublesome, even if it's not a slave-like unsolvable soul contract, but if you want to solve it, you can't move to it in a short time.
And the Cult's ship had already reached the waters of Gosai, so they didn't have any more time.
"The emissary led by the Cult of God this time is Privy Counsellor Mahik, one of the two Privy Councils of the Cult, whose position is only below the Pope - and unlike Privy Counsellor Reimer who sits in the Emerald North, this Patriarch of Mahik is much younger and wealthier...... Invade. Sex! ”
The princess said.
"Mahik ......"
Dean muttered softly.
At this moment, the Divine Cult is far from reaching the point where there are only two of the seven Privy Councillors after defeating and annexing the Ring of Mobius in the future.
Even, even if the Ring of Morbius is defeated and annexed, there will be one less of the seven future Privy Councillors.
After all, De Hall in Vauban was cut off by Dean early on to qualify for gold.
As for the dark hall of the Cult of God?
Similarly, the Cult of God, which claims to have twelve high priests. At this moment, there is only one high priest.
After getting in touch with the Ring of Morbius. Dean on the relationship between the two sides. But with a certain understanding, the way of devouring and advancing like raising Gu worms made him remember it deeply.
In the same way, Dean would never let the Cult have such a chance again.
"Do you know anything more about this privy councilor?"
Dean asked.
"Privy Bishop Mahik has been staying on the island of God, he himself is a resident of the island of God, he has shown a unique talent since he was a child, he is valued by the current pope, guided into the Church of God, and started as a priest at the age of ten. It took thirty years for the current Privy Councilor to ...... His strength reached the gold level five years ago, and now he has truly perfected his 'path' and marched towards the realm of 'domain'! ”
The princess of Gao Sai said what she knew.
"At the age of thirty-five, he became a golden powerhouse, which is really young...... In addition to this golden powerhouse, are there any other noteworthy people in the envoy group this time? ”
Dean continued to ask.
"Gus! He was my introduction to the Cult...... It had to be eliminated - he knew too much! In fact, he is our main target, and Patriarch Mahik just needs to get out of the way! ”
The princess of Gao Sai said immediately.
"Record Crystal and Gus?"
Dean nodded silently, several thoughts quickly spinning in his mind. However, it was not immediately spoken. Instead, he looked at the princess of Gosai: "Your Highness Vivian, do you have any ideas?" ”
"During that night's battle, you performed a secret technique similar to that of Lord Fullin!"
The King of Gao Sai said directly.
"That's a talent...... Let me impersonate Lord Fullin, kill Gus, and steal the Record Crystal? ”
Dean replied and asked rhetorically.
"Hmm!"
The Lady of the High Race nodded.
"What if that record crystal is kept by Mahik? Believe me, if it were me, I would definitely do it, and even Gus would not have left the Privy Counsellor of Mahik! ”
Dean said.
"That, that......"
The princess bit her lip and was speechless.
Undoubtedly, the current royal daughter of Gao Sai has entered the trade-off between conscience and interests.
"The best way to deal with Mahik is undoubtedly to ask Her Highness to take action, but Her Highness will never do this - this is contrary to her beliefs, and if I make a move, there is only less than a thirty percent chance!"
Dean said sincerely.
And among them, Dean naturally did not hide it.
Although with his current strength, he can face the golden powerhouse without a 'domain' head-on, but it is only to face, and if he wants to defeat the other party, or kill people and snatch items under the eyes of the other party, it is still not enough.
"Then I have no hope?"
A hint of dejection appeared on the face of the princess of Gao Sai.
A puppet that has broken free will never want to be bound by those silk threads again.
Therefore, the gloom on the face of the princess of Gao Sai became absolute in the next moment.
Apparently, she had prepared for the worst - the fish was dead!
"And, of course!"
Looking at the absolute look on the face of the King of the High Sai, Dean shook his finger, he looked at the King of the High Sai who was looking at him happily, and said slowly: "I have a plan that is not very mature, if it is implemented, it will at least increase our chances of less than thirty percent to fifty percent - Your Highness Vivian, do you have a 'stand-in'?" ”
"Stand-in? Some! ”
The princess of Gao Sai was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.
"So, are there any damned people in your mind? I've reached a small bottleneck in my 'way of killing' and need to take out more damn people for me to break through - I think we can do it at the same time! ”
Dean asked with a smile.
