Chapter Seventy-Five: Dreams
"You are the only one who profits, what can I get?" Duke asked, slightly mocking. Except for the increased round-up by the world government, and the further increase in the bounty, there is no benefit. People can eat anything, but they can't eat at a loss...... Uh, poop can't be eaten either.
Robin was silent for a long time, as if he was considering the price that could attract Duke, and finally exhaled heavily, and said with a solemn face: "I am an archaeologist who interprets the text of history!" β
"I know this, but I'm not interested in history. Whether it is a family of D, or a hundred years since it disappeared, history is history after all, and the past is in the past, and people always have to look forward. I prefer a prophet to an archaeologist! Duke shrugged his shoulders and sat in his chair, his legs banging on the office table, like the boss of an interview secretary, with an extremely bad attitude.
At first hearing Duke mention the 'D-One' and 'One Hundred Years of Disappearance', Robin looked at Duke in surprise and said, "Since you know these secrets, you should have heard of 'Ancient Weapons'!" Its whereabouts are recorded in historical texts, and I am the only person in the world who can interpret history. β
"What, you want to use ancient weapons as bargaining chips?" The interviewer, Duke, laughed with a meaningful smile on his face. What a scheming woman, it seems that Klockdahl has been fooled and lame like this.
"Yes, what do you think of the pay?" At this moment, Robin felt that he was sure of victory. The legend of the three ancient weapons that existed in the world since ancient times and can destroy everything is recorded in the text of history, and they are the terrifying forces that turn the world upside down. Power, status, wealth, as long as you have ancient weapons, these are all within reach. Robin is confident that no one can maintain an elegant and hypocritical face in the face of such temptation.
What to do if you find a historical text about ancient weapons information, Robin has already had a plan, and the other party can't understand it anyway, just make up a poem to fool the past. As for whether Duke would be suspicious, Robin said that there are countless history books that praise countries and gods, and it is normal for historical texts to record this, and there is nothing surprising about it.
"Sorry, not interested!" To Robin's surprise, Duke replied very simply.
Robin's smile froze on her face, could it really be that someone resisted the temptation of one step to the sky, she couldn't believe it: "It's an ancient weapon, do you know what it means?" β
"Of course I know, the three great weapons of ancient times: Pluto, the king of the underworld, Poseidon the king of the sea, and Ouranos, the king of heaven! Dear Miss Robin, I know far more about ancient weapons than I know. Duke lowered his voice and raised his eyes to speak slowly under Robin's shocked look.
"You...... How would you know...... Their names? Robin took a few steps back in fright, shaking his body in fear. Has someone already found the historical texts and interpreted them?
Duke didn't answer Robin's question, and said to himself, "Pluto, the king of Hades, the most vicious warship in history, can destroy an island with a single shot. It was not destroyed after the war, it still exists somewhere in this world, I only know its whereabouts, but its exact location is not clear. But it doesn't matter, because I know who owns the blueprints for Hades, and it's easy to get it. β
"Poseidon the Sea King was reborn five years ago, and if I want, I can get her now. However, the distance is a bit far, and this weapon is somewhat special, it should be said that it is not mature yet......"
"As for Ouranos, the king of heaven...... Keep this a secret! β
As Duke talked to himself, Robin's face became more and more pale, and when he learned the whereabouts of the two weapons that Duke had mastered, he slipped and sat on the ground.
"You...... Who exactly? Robin shuddered, Duke was as unfathomable as a devil in her eyes.
"Don't get so excited, I'm just telling you that ancient weapons can't be used as bargaining chips." Duke was very happy to forcibly pretend to be a wave, especially when he saw Robin's gaffe. This royal sister didn't have a good heart at the beginning, purely for the purpose of using him, and it was not bad to scare and scare her. Well, this is a cautious man!
"So, dear Miss Robin, is there anything else to say? If that's your final answer, then I'm sorry I could only kill you, I just accidentally said too much, and if you spread the word, I'm in for a big disaster. Duke lowered his legs and walked up to Robin, looking down at each other condescendingly. Great angle, but unfortunately the light in the captain's room is average, and the buttons of the other party's shirt are also very tight, so I can't see clearly.
Under such a blow, ordinary people would have collapsed a long time ago, but Robin suddenly stood up, grabbed Duke's shoulders with both hands, and said in a trembling voice: "You must know history...... Please tell me the truth of history, what really happened in the 100 years since it disappeared! β
O'hara! A famous archaeological mecca in the West Sea, it is also Robin's hometown. O'Hara is famous for the world's largest library, the 'Tree of Knowledge', which houses a vast number of books and precious texts from around the world.
O'Hara is home to a group of committed and knowledgeable scholars who secretly study the text of history and explore the true face of a hundred years of blanks erased by the world government, and Robin's mother is one of the scholars. Because of his envy for children of the same age, in order to get his mother's attention, Robin secretly studied historical texts, just hoping to go to sea with his mother.
However, the World Government found evidence of the island's archaeologists researching the forbidden history and launched a demon slayer to destroy the entire island. Robin got her wish to see her mother, but only a quick glance was gone, and she lost everything that day. Her beloved scholarly hometown was destroyed by a brutal massacre, O'Hara's scholars were notorious for destroying the world, and she was also known as the 'Son of the Devil', hunted down by the Navy for destroying six warships.
An eight-year-old girl, alone with a bounty of 79 million Bailey, learns to assassinate and spy on intelligence in order to survive, and there is only betrayal in life. She is constantly betrayed by others and betrayed others to escape the pursuit of the navy and bounty hunters.
Nothing!
Only the legacy of her mother and the scholars from O'Hara kept Robin alive, and the blood of scholars gave her the spirit of discovery to explore history, which has always accompanied her as she grew up. She firmly believes that there are no demons in O'Hara, there is only a group of people who seek the truth. History is the wealth of humanity and can light up the future, and O'Hara is not here to expose history, but to protect the voices of the past. Even if O'Hara dies, he can't give up hope for the future......
"Please, please tell the truth of history......" Robin's tears poured out like bursting water, and his fingers pressed tightly into Duke's shoulder. In the sea of hypocrisy, she has lived alone for more than ten years, and she is about to be unable to hold on, and her only motivation to survive is the truth of history.
A woman's tears will suffocate a man! At that moment, Duke's heart was a little loose, and he almost blurted out the location of several historical texts, but fortunately, the steely nerves stopped the urge in time.
The two were so close that Duke felt each other's breathing, he forcibly suppressed the throbbing in his heart, secretly said that Gentle Township is a man's mound, pushed Robin away, and asked, "Still that sentence, what can I get?" What price can you pay me for the truth of history? β
"Whatever you want, I can give it to you." Robin is categorical, as she said, for the sake of the truth of history, everything is not spared.
"Even if it's a cow or a horse?"
"Yes."
"Interesting, that's your dream!" Duke tilted his head, and the Demon King went online in time and said, "You don't have to be a cow or a horse, because I won't give you grass!" β
After finishing speaking, Duke looked at Robin, looking forward to her expression, but unfortunately Robin couldn't understand the connotation of this sentence, and said nervously and quickly: "Then what do you want from me?" β
What do you get? Duke glanced Robin up and down, he had a good figure and a beautiful face. It's just that your skin is a little dark, so how did you turn white later? Is it because the color is evenly spread when you grow up, or is it because the cosmetics on the side of the revolutionary army contain pearl white ingredients? It can't be caused by the villain's whitewashing, right?
Robin's rude gaze made Robin misunderstand something, she calmly met Duke's eyes, and said word by word: "If it is my body, you can say it directly, as long as you tell me the truth of history, it doesn't hurt to take this life!" β
Duke hurriedly waved his hand to defend his character: "Hey, girls' families should love themselves!" Don't say such dangerous things, I'm not a casual person, you better keep your body for yourself. β
"And what do you want?" Robin is anxious, the historical truth is in front of him, but those who grasp the truth do not enter the oil and salt. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't beat it, Robin would have fanned it with a big ear scraper and beaten it into a trick.
Duke pulled out the flower island, and the sharp blade against Robin's chest cut open her suit, and the sword rested on the skin of the heart. Facing Robin's slightly panicked eyes, Duke said solemnly: "Since it is a dream to chase to the death, let me see your determination!" If you dare to deceive me, this famous knife Huazhou will pierce your heart. Come, tell me, dear Miss Robin, can you really do anything for your dreams? β
The cold tingling pain in his chest was transmitted down the nerves to his brain, and Robin's mind went blank, death was so near. But in the next second, these fears were forgotten by her. She closed her eyes and broke open again, her eyes no longer confused, and her firm will made her cry: "Take my life if you want it!" β
βBingoοΌ Answer is correct! Duke laughed.
"Then please tell me......" Robin laughed happily, but the next moment, under her dull gaze, Duke stabbed forward with Huazhou in his hand, and the sharp sword pierced through the heart and stabbed out from behind.
"Lie to your ......"
