Chapter Twenty-Three: Romeo
"He's Garcia?" Xu Mo carefully looked at a male prisoner in the dungeon beneath his feet.
"Yes, my lord, he's Garcia!" After experiencing the hiccup on the top floor of the tower, Raz unconsciously developed a real awe for the man in front of him, who was still human.
A real hell prison, this is Xu Mo's evaluation after seeing Garcia's environment clearly. Looking through the iron window on the top of the dungeon two meters square under Xu Mo's feet, half of the dungeon was soaked in underground sewage. On the black, smelly surface of the sewage, the remains of dead rats and maggots floated, mixed with the prisoners' own excrement, floating and sinking in the water.
In the middle of the dungeon was a naked man with his head bowed, and the man had a collar around his neck similar to that worn by the old werewolf grandson, except that his collar was larger and heavier, and there were eight sharp cones inside the collar aimed at the vital point of the neck.
His hands were hung diagonally from thick chains, the other end of which was attached to the walls of the water prison, and even to his waist was a thick waist ring attached to the chain. Although the lower half of his body was covered by sewage, Xu Mo believed that his feet must also be bound by iron chains.
Even so, the man's broad chest still gave Xu Mo a pulse like the earth breathing, and gave the two people above the dungeon a strong pressure, as if he was the master who was looking down on everyone from above. This is Garcia, the younger brother of the werewolf leader Lucian, one of the top powerhouses of this mirror world, the Dark Middle Ages.
"Aside from the guards, is there anyone else who can contact him on a regular basis?" Xu Mo was silent for a while, then turned to Raz and asked.
"Only me, Lord Tannis, and Nirna have access to this dungeon, and now you, of course. It is impossible for anyone else to be released by the guards unless they have a warrant signed by the Prince. Raz replied immediately.
"Nelna?" Xu Mo asked a little surprised.
"Yes, my lord, this is a special order that Princess Sonia pleaded with the Prince, so that Nirna can confirm every day that Garcia is still alive, otherwise Princess Sonia will also give up her eternal life." There was a hint of helplessness in Raz's tone, the reality that the Blood Princess of Saint Cesse fell in love with a lowly werewolf made the Blood warrior equally humiliated.
"Believe me, Raz, this will soon change, and the glory of the Bloodline will not be tarnished by any lowly creature!" A hint of madness flashed in Xu Mo's eyes, and after seeing the two protagonists of the Tower of Dusk with his own eyes, a bold idea grew in his heart, making him eager to go back to his room and think about it carefully.
"I hope so, my lord!" Raz bowed and led the way out of the dungeon.
After Xu Mo and the two left, Garcia, who was originally motionless in the water prison, raised his head, and a bright light burst out from his eyes covered by black hair, and the werewolf's sensitive instinct made him feel that among the two people on the top of the dungeon just now, one of them had an aura that he was very familiar with, as if it belonged to his brother Lucian, but the breath was very weak, and the feeling of being absent made him uncertain.
"Lucian, my brother, are you here? I'm sorry, I ......" There was a faint whisper from the dungeon.
After returning to his room, Xu Mo began to carefully scrutinize his thoughts just now. He is now in the reputation of the three races, the werewolf clan has a reputation of 800, the blood clan has a reputation of 2000, and the human reputation is a negative 3000, and the hatred is solidified. Unless he can kill Prince Victor or help the humans capture the castle of San Cice, there will be no hope of joining the human side again.
In other words, he can only choose to join the werewolf clan or the blood clan, and the blood kiss that Prince Victor wants to give him will give Prince Victor direct contact with some premeditated plans in his heart after he enters San Cessé, which also cuts off his hope of joining the blood camp.
But after entering the Tower of Twilight, he analyzed all the information he had obtained, and convinced him that he still had the possibility of being trusted by the old fox after Prince Victor learned the secret.
And once he gained the trust of the old fox, Xu Mo believed that it was not impossible to get the kiss of the blood clan in advance before returning to the space. Of course, this is very dangerous, almost putting his own life on the scales of Victor's inner trade-off, the kiss of the blood vs his own life.
Xu Mo's current capital is the 2000 blood clan reputation and his identity as the caretaker of the Tower of Twilight, among the tasks given by the space, the main quest (join a certain faction) and the side quest one (faction prestige 1000), he can complete it almost at any time, after completion, in the non-combat state, he can choose to return to the space at any time, which also gives him the opportunity to fight the remaining few difficult side quests.
Among the unfinished space missions: side quest two (B-class, optional): Rescue Werewolf Garcia; Side Mission 4 (A-Rank, Optional): Kill the werewolf leader Lucian; Side Mission 5 (Tier B, Optional): Kill the vampire maid Nilna.
Among them, the side quest four can be ignored, Xu Mo speculated that this task was almost an extreme, when he first entered this world, of course, there was no hope of completion, but now he has lost the opportunity.
In side quest two, it seems that Xu Mo, who is the caretaker of the Tower of Twilight, has a chance to free Garcia from personal control in the dungeon. But it is very likely that once Garcia is out of the dungeon, they will be in a state of battle, and the mission will not be completed until they leave San Cise completely.
Then the powerful Garcia pays a certain price, and it is possible to leave San Cisse alive, but Xu Mo, whose strength is like an ant, must be as exhausted and dead as Lei Feng.
As for side quest five, it is obvious that this quest arranged in space is intended for the reincarnation of the human camp. Because Nelna, who has the blood of the orthodox bloodline, is not only close to Princess Sonia like sisters, but also loves the house and Wuxia, and has a very good relationship with Garcia, so in the prestige reward of the mission, the prestige of the blood clan and the werewolf clan will be reduced by 5000 to hatred together.
However, after Xu Mo analyzed the information he had obtained from Sonya, Garcia, and Nilna, he discovered that Space had made a mistake in the side quests related to the three main characters. In fact, it cannot be said that it is a mistake, but that this nascent superstring space, which is a collection of laws, is not at all able to calculate the unique characteristics of such intelligent beings.
But this kind of calculation error, or the unique characteristics of this intelligent creature, was caught by Xu Mo. Xu Mo, who had finished thinking, had an extremely complicated look on his face for the first time. Even when he betrayed ~ Billy, lured the lame boy, and let the old werewolf die generously, Xu Mo never had such a look. He's perfected his plan, or the hazy second card of his original layout, will be perfectly liberated.
However, the planned use of this card must meet one condition, or rather, it must be agreed and assisted by a person, otherwise it cannot be done in his ability. As the ruler of the blood clan, as a father, he would agree, he had to agree, thinking of this, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of Xu Mo's mouth.
"Someone!" Xu Mo shouted loudly in the room.
"Yes, sir!" Soon, Raz was in his room.
"Tell Your Excellency the Prince that I want to see him, now, immediately!" Xu Mo's deep voice sounded.
……
"No, Your Excellency, you can't agree to Cole's plan, this plan...... This plan ......" In the secret negotiation of only the Prince, Xu Mo and Baron Tannis, Baron Tannis, after listening to Xu Mo's plan, immediately lost his original calmness, "Cole, you ......, you ......, how can you come up with such a plan!" I! I ......"
"Tannis, calm down!" After listening to Xu Mo's narration, Prince Victor, the old vampire who had survived for thousands of years and seen countless intrigues and tricks, also lost his mind for a moment.
"Your Excellency, if this plan is perfectly realized, then your daughter, Princess Sonia, will return to you and protect the honor of the blood of St. Cesse. Of course, any decision you make, Cole will implement without reservation! Xu Mo lowered his head and said.
"No, Your Excellency! You're going to ruin Sonya! This plan can't be concealed for a long time, Sonia is a smart child, she will understand sooner or later! Tannis looked at the silent Victor in his final effort.
After a long time, Prince Victor finally broke the silence between the three, and a hint of hoarseness appeared in his originally majestic voice:
"Yes, sooner or later she will understand why I did it! In the next few days, Tannis, go back to your room in the main castle to recuperate, and you don't have to stay in the Tower of Twilight, and the key to power in the Tower of Twilight will be handed over to Cole. ”
"Your Excellency, ......Your Excellency," Baron Tannis' eyes darkened.
"Say no more!" Prince Victor interrupted Tannis with a wave of his hand, and looked at Xu Mo quietly, "Cole, promise me, assure me that this plan will be realized perfectly!" ”
"Yes, my Prince, Cole assures you with his life that your will will be carried out! Everything will go back to its original path! The honor of San Cise will be restored to glory! Xu Mo bowed deeply, and his lowered eyes flashed with a strange light.
After Baron Tannis and Xu Mo walked out of Victor's room, Tannis handed Xu Mo a quaint golden key, which was the key to power in the Tower of Dusk, which could command the entire prince to direct the guard. Because Baron Tannis's opposition to the plan and the prince's own inability to carry out the plan, he had to give it to Xu Mo, who was still a human being.
