...... I see.

Now, the reason why that guy, now the vice president of the Royal Astronomical Society of Albion, took away Scordy Miller, he already knows.

Still, Richard noticed a few strange things:

According to Longman Hall, Silky is a member of the Shipton family that has been passed down independently for generations, but he has shown a great talent in the field of prophecy; But judging from the tone of the prophet, this is not the case, and the silver-haired witch clearly inherited the bloodline of the main line of Shipton.

It's very likely that Longman was lying to deceive himself; Moreover, according to Rasputin's understanding of the crown family, if Scordi was not a direct member, it is very likely that she would not have the talent to make the "magic eye" awaken early from the beginning.

As for how did that "Luo Xue" know...... That's probably what Longman Hall revealed, right?

"You're so honest."

The black-robed wizard gathered his thoughts and whispered.

The "preacher" smiled and did not answer directly, but Shi Shiran moved on to the next topic.

"So, can we talk about what's next?"

"What else do you want to talk about?"

"I've told you what you want, and now, I want you to listen to my request......"

At this time, McQueen Mathers unexpectedly put himself very low, which is a stark gap from the arrogant and unsightly attitude of the past.

However, he seemed to quickly realize that it was not wise to show weakness in the face of a legendary wizard who was in a hostile position, and changed his tune.

"No, I guess it's not a request, it's an invitation—an invitation to cooperate. Because it's a great opportunity for both of us. ”

"I'm the Wizard of the Black Tower, and you're an apostle of the 'Reverse Cross', so there's nothing to talk about between us."

Richard replied without changing his face.

...... Of course, this is a lie, but his intentions are by no means false.

He really didn't want to have anything to do with this guy.

The reason is simple – the "preacher" is too conspicuous.

He can be close companions with the cardinals of the Holy See in secret, but he cannot accept being a true ally with a notorious dark wizard.

Like Howard Newman, Richard has already had a murderous intention, and he can still be a snake at present, because after that old guy came back from the dead, he is currently just coming to the magic tower, with a clear goal, which will not cause too many people's nervousness and attention, and even the Holy See that wrote him into the list of thorns did not choose to do it.

As for the co-optation of the "preacher" who came from a bigger and more famous place, he could only thank Bumin.

Richard remained silent, and was about to find a casual excuse to deal with it and get some secrets out of his mouth, when he received a request for "magic communication" from the other party.

Richard frowned, but didn't hesitate for long before taking it.

With his real name by his side, he is not afraid of any spells or curses.

However, events can always be unexpected; Soon, Richard developed a mood of "too surprised to speak".

- "This is probably the first time we've officially met, Mr. Wheel of Fortune. ”

In the communication, the voice of the "preacher" was full of laughter, as if the personality had returned to the original one.

*

"Well, actually, I wanted to meet you in reality; As a result, the face was touched, but I didn't expect the timing to be not good...... Dear Mr. Raspuchin, you are too ruthless. ”

“...... It's your magic that's too fragile. ”

The black-robed wizard replied coldly.

"Haha, maybe that's true."

McQueen Mathers didn't mind and winked at him, with a familiar attitude of "good brothers".

Although Richard maintained his superficial indifference, it was difficult for him to be really unhappy in his heart.

"There's something about the witch that I told the owner of the museum; But there is information that a direct member of the Shipton family is in the Black Tower, and you originally provided it to me. ”

This guy actually thinks it's me...... No, it's definitely true!

That's what the former "Raspuchin" told her!

No wonder he would speak so frankly in front of him about the whole process—for the vast majority of it was in the original Rasputin brain!

Richard couldn't help but want to pat himself on the head.

He was almost stunned by the operation.

Rasputin Nowich...... What was the wizard leader who had this name thinking about?

As a member of "Steppenwolf" and the chief priest of "Reverse Cross", this kind of thing itself is exaggerated enough, but I didn't expect that while joining forces with the enemy who is trying to destroy the magic tower, I can also engage in double-sided cooperation with the object of his jealousy......

At that time, when he and Howard contacted after the meeting, the two had considered the "preacher" as an imaginary enemy, because this guy also showed a coveting of the Spark Furnace; As a result, I didn't expect that Rasputin had already been on the line with the other party!

The relationship between these characters is intricate, and it is simply "Mission Impossible"...... The so-called "wizard leaders" can't all be a bunch of awkward guys who no one wants to believe in and everyone wants to pit casually, right?

If you follow this line of thought, it is likely that the likes of Longman Hall have a similar idea - to hook up with the former "Raspuchin", maybe also have a connection with these two guys......

When Richard was feeling a headache, the persuasion of the other party did not stop.

"Do as I say, Mr. Rasputchin."

The preacher said in a affectionate tone, "I am truly trustworthy."

"As long as you can agree to the conditions I have put forward to you now, I promise that you will become the new apostle of the 'Reverse Cross' - I will give your full support to any one you want to replace; If I wanted to become a new 'preacher,' I would immediately abdicate. ”

In the presence of bystanders, the "preachers" do not intend to reveal each other's identities; He remained silent, and motioned with his eyes to the black-robed wizard to do it as soon as possible.

"What you need to do is simple, just give me the queen."

It's weird.

Why does a vase that does not possess any extraordinary powers, even if it is a queen, need to be personally acted upon by a legendary wizard, and why is it repeatedly targeted by the "preacher"?

As if seeing through his thoughts—no, rather, I'm afraid, because Rasputin had asked more than once in the past, the preacher sighed,

"I've already answered you, and of course I won't hide the reasons, provided that you can really be my partner. And Queen Mary is proof of that. Can you understand the precedence? ”

Richard did not answer.

...... handing over Queen Mary in exchange for the support of the "preacher"?

No, no.

Although he can do it easily; Although Joan will not object, with her personality, she may help her hold down the hands and feet of her so-called "friend" when she sees her robbing the queen, but ......

For no reason, a sudden sense of irritability surged in the depths of Richard's heart.

Deceive each other, take advantage of each other –

As long as you deal with this group of people, it will definitely become like this.

Is there any such thing?

Is this what he is here for?
