Chapter 112: A Deal with the Devil
The high-performance, high-safety and comfortable off-road vehicle is like an angry bull, speeding over the wilderness, accompanied by the low and powerful roar of the motor, leaving the disgusting saliva chasing the hyena group far behind.
Medusa was skilled at driving, at least in the not-so-flat wilderness, and she didn't let the silent crowd in the car feel the slightest bump.
Heidi leaned back against the soft backrest of the co-pilot, her head bowed in thought, still thinking about her unspoken last name, her own last name. Heine was in no hurry to know the answer, at least not a good time to talk about it again.
Lowe sat calmly in the wide back seat of the SUV, her slender fingers running over the long blue hair of the girl leaning beside her.
Lowe never complains about things that can't be changed, he just accepts them and adapts to them quickly.
He left his dead in Alex. Luo didn't know what he was going to face, and if it was something he couldn't resist, it didn't seem to change much if he had one more underworld.
"Huh? Do you have any friends in Hasai Castle too? She seems to be coming for us! ”
Medusa's voice finally broke the oppressive atmosphere in the car, which made her slightly uncomfortable. She opened the car window, letting the wild wind lick the white skin on her chest, and reached out to the black dot that was speeding straight from Hasai Castle towards the buggy.
"What a flirtatious guy!"
Medusa muttered under her breath, glancing in the rearview mirror of the car at Luo, who had already turned her gaze out of the car.
This black dot travels very fast, at least it should be a super-level ability, and from the long flowing hair, it can be seen that it should be a woman.
It's her?
Before destruction befell Alik, he resolutely abandoned his companion and left Caroline with Billy Sr., Alik's former chief intelligence officer.
"Lord Medusa, please stop and wait a moment."
Lorio thought for a moment and whispered to Medusa, then gently placed the snuggle leaning against her on the back behind her.
Yiwei closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes fluttered from time to time. She didn't fall asleep, she was just obsessed with the feeling of being on Luo, and she was obsessed with the feeling of being cared for by Luo as she once was.
Lowe got out of the car and met Caroline, who was rapidly approaching this way.
He didn't blame Caroline for her betrayal, and if Lowe had been in Caroline's status at the time, he would have chosen to leave Alec without hesitation, leaving the Storm of Destruction, which threatened to destroy him completely.
Caroline stopped about a dozen meters away from Lowe, her chest heaving violently, she had always been pampered and had never strengthened her speed, and she was obviously unable to maintain the vigorous running just now.
"Mr. Luo, it's a pleasure to see you again."
Caroline bowed to Lowe, respectful and sincere.
She had already attached herself to the Marquis of Begu and had obtained the status of acting lord in Yuxi City, and she didn't need to run so hard in the wilderness and make herself so embarrassed, let alone be so respectful to Luo.
Lowe felt that Caroline should have come more than just to see her off.
"Thank you, Lord Carolyn, for coming to see her off."
Luo nodded slightly and returned the salute.
In the case of his own ability, it should be good for Alik to let the other party have a better mood, although Luo no longer thinks that Yusai City has enough capital to provoke Alik.
"I'm here to see you off and to apologize to you, for my betrayal and departure."
Caroline didn't lift up, still maintaining a respectful posture.
Lowe didn't speak, he wasn't too interested in apologizing, the wilderness wasn't a good place to apologize and thrive.
"I have come to see you this time, and I have been entrusted by Mr. Billy to bring you something. Mr. Billy is no longer fit to step into the wilderness again, so he can only ask me to pass it on to you. ”
Mr. Billy?
Billy Dupont, founder of the Alec Hunter Company? That old man from a distant ice field, old enough?
"Mr. Billy regrets that he may never be able to return to his homeland, so he gives this thing to you. If one day you set foot on that magical ice field, you can open it and maybe bring you some good luck. ”
Caroline took a few steps forward, respectfully placed the small cloth bag that she had always held in her hand on the wilderness ground between the two, and after bowing to Luo again, she turned around and ran towards the wilderness, towards Yuxi City.
Lowe's eyes remained fixed on Caroline until the other party's figure finally disappeared at the end of the wilderness, and then he looked down at the cloth bag in front of him that resembled the size of an old-time "sachet".
Luo and his party did not go directly to the mansion of the Marquis of Begu, but went to the town of Nirvana in Heine halfway, which was Heidi's personal request.
She wants to go to the small town of Nirvana to visit the injured Heine.
Heidi is Medusa's childhood friend and is about to become the highest discursor in the Marquis's private research base, and there is no reason for Medusa to refuse this request.
As for Luo, Luo hoped that he would never reach the Marquis's mansion.
Heidi wanted to have a good talk with her half-sister about some personal matters between the two sisters, so she refused to be accompanied by Medusa.
Heine had come out of the nutrient trough, she had two slender legs again, and she was in a very good mood.
Her nirvana ability seems to have gotten stronger.
"My dear sister, it is a great pleasure for you to come to see me. You know, the relationship between our sisters will not be affected in the slightest by you leaving the family, you just did what I wanted to do but did not dare to do. ”
Before trying out Heidi's intentions, Heine wisely replaced "betrayal" with "leave".
The two sisters were standing on the empty gravel of Nirvana, the site of the sprawling tent that had once housed the new members of the Cardivan family's training camp.
The tent and the single bed had long since been removed, leaving only dark red patches of blood on the gravel floor.
"I'm not here to catch up with you this time, I'm just here to see if you still have the ambition to compete for the throne of the patriarch of the family."
Heidi's voice was cold and direct, and she wasn't worried about being heard. They are all Murphy's daughters, and they all have the right and opportunity to sit on the supreme position of the patriarch of the family.
Heine's face showed a hint of unnaturalness, and a sense of self-deprecation gradually permeated the gravel.
"You're not interested in power, are you? Dear Heidi, otherwise you wouldn't be willing to be a cleaner. ”
Heine didn't know Heidi's intention for coming to Nirvana Town suddenly, and she didn't think that the other party already knew about the fact that her Nirvana ability had become stronger.
"I don't have an interest in power play, but that doesn't mean I don't have my own preferences, and I don't really like some of my father's arrangements."
Heidi's cold voice lingered in Heine's ears for a long time, scorching Heine's thoughts that seemed to have been buried deep in his heart for a long time.
Heidi's words were direct enough, and Heine had already begun to think about the probability that he would eventually defeat Heyman if he had Heidi's help.
But she came to a very disheartening conclusion, and Heidi, who had long since distanced herself from the Cardivans, did little to help her in taking the throne.
The succession is not a battle between two adepts, whoever has more mechanical beasts will win. If this were the case, Heyman would have been trampled into powder by Heine.
"I don't think you can help me, but I still want to thank you for successfully reminding me of my dreams, dear sister."
Heine's messy short hair was still so unruly, like her moody, unpredictable personality.
"I can't help you, but maybe someone else can. For example, our uncle, who has been fighting in the Ice Plains for a long time and controls the entire Iron Wolf Regiment, General Moddy Kadivan. ”
Moddy Caddivon, the younger brother of Murphy, the patriarch of the Caddivon family, is the only general of the Predator Wolf Regiment, and an iron-blooded commander who has never been involved in the infighting between the heirs of the Caddivon family.
If there is Modi's support......
Heine's heart moved.
Heine didn't think she had enough weight to convince her unsmiling uncle, until she saw the twisted and wriggling mass of rotten flesh that Heidi had handed her.
Shauns!
"To make this weight a little heavier, I can assure you, my dear sister. At least until I return to my family, there will not be a single mechanical war beast on the northern battlefield. ”
Heine looked at her sister, who was always cold-faced, and if she could choose, she would never choose Heidi to be her opponent.
In order to elevate Shauns's status in Moddy's mind, Heidi did not hesitate to let the hard-won advantage of the entire northern battlefield come to naught again. Moreover, she has betrayed the Cardivan family, and has found herself a strong enough backer that the Cardivan family seems to have no way to deal with her.
Heine was happy to see this, but she didn't think Heidi would be so kind to help her, at least not yet.
Heine needed to be exchanged, with something Heidi was satisfied with enough.
"What do you need me to do for you? My dear sister. ”
Heine finally asked what he had to pay. She even vaguely felt that she had nothing to exchange for except Nirvana Town.
"Support, including you and our uncle's support, unreservedly support that blue light, to support her in shining through all the dark corners of the twilight zone."
Heine was silent, she felt that Heidi's request was beyond her means. In Heidi's abometron's absence, in order to consolidate the gains made in the northern battlefield, Moddy should accept the entry of the Shayns Legion into the battle, and make a stand to support the battle between Heine and Heyman.
But Moddy will never be involved in the civil war of the Begu family, never.
"Your chips are tempting, dear Heidi. But I'm afraid I can't, and Shauns can't get General Murdy to make such a drastic change. ”
Heine eventually voiced her fears, not wanting to deceive Heidi, even though she had always been fanatical about the throne that stood tall.
"All you need to do is get this piece of Shauns' rotten meat in our uncle's tent. For the rest, our uncle will make a wise choice. After all, no one can guarantee that some new mutant species will not suddenly appear on the ice sheet, enough to tip the scales of war. What do you say? My dear sister. ”
Heine finally understands Heidi's intentions, Heidi is cold and crazy, she is a complete lunatic.
Not only did Heidi provoke the war between the Predators and the Black Legion, but she also created enough to eat the entire wilderness.
Now, she has turned her attention to the northern ice fields. She wants to make the ice field, which is covered with ice and snow all year round, tremble because of her, and let all the existence on the ice field remember her name forever.
Heidi Cardivan!
It was a deal with the devil, but Heine was willing to accept it.
