Chapter 254: Cake Poison (Part I)
Peter looked at Zhao Qi and Mandy, and then looked down thoughtfully.
One thing that is very clear in his heart is that Zhao Qi should want to exclude Linda in order to get credit for McCarthy and Mandy.
He felt that Zhao Qi was playing something left and right now, stepping on two boats, wanting to twist McCarthy and Mandy together and deal with Linda first.
Peter secretly smiled smugly in his heart, because he felt that no matter how Zhao Qi played, these people were his subordinates and they had to be controlled by him.
Especially McCarthy has secretly fallen to him, he can give Zhao Qi a fatal blow at any time, this is where he is proud.
He really wanted to see Zhao Qi stabbed in the back by McCarthy, stunned.
Thinking of this, he felt that he couldn't show too much, after all, he still greatly appreciated Zhao Qi's ability.
If Zhao Qi hadn't violated his taboo, he would definitely have secretly taken McCarthy and Zhao Qi under his hands.
Considering that Linda's strength has indeed shrunk recently, since he became the squadron leader, he has always maintained Linda's strength to suppress Mandy on the surface, because he is afraid that Mandy's identity will be noticed by more people.
After thinking about it, Peter made a decision and said, "That's it, Linda, you go with Zhao Qi, and McCarthy and Mandy will stay." ”
"Your Excellency!" ×2
Now Mandy and McCarthy are gone, McCarthy is naturally pretending, he is very sincere, and he is very eager to go. It seems to be a loyal dogleg of Peter, hoping to make meritorious contributions. I want to be faithful to my master.
As for Mandy, although she didn't know Zhao Qi's specific plans, she knew that Zhao Qi was targeting Linda this time. As Linda's opponent, if you easily give up this opportunity. It's going to be suspicious.
Linda was very unhappy when she saw that the two of them were against her, she snuggled in Peter's arms, and shouted in a coquettish voice: "My lord, look at it..."
At this time, Zhao Qi still had to show that there was no one in his eyes, and according to his image in Peter's heart, he had to also come forward to stop it.
"Your Excellency. I don't think I get along well with Lord Linda, and my subordinates are afraid of accidents. ”
When Linda heard this, she shouted angrily: "Zhao Qi, what do you mean!" ”
Zhao Qi smiled slightly. Said leisurely: "I'm afraid that if I find something, Lord Linda will accidentally put some magic behind my back, and I'll go back to the city." ”
Although Zhao Qi did not specify. But everyone can hear Zhao Qi's sarcasm.
"You..."
Linda didn't fight back. Peter raised his hand to stop him: "Okay, no matter who found it, as long as it can really be proved that it is the alchemy left by the gnome, then your merit will not be diminished because you didn't find it." You're all the same, well, that's how it was decided. Also, Linda is the only henchman under me who is proficient in the dwarf language, and you think any of you are better at dwarf language than Linda. ”
At this time, Zhao Qi couldn't help but look at Linda in surprise. I didn't expect this woman to be proficient in the dwarf language.
The language of the dwarfs is easy to learn and difficult to master, and many fallen angels know a little. But there are very few who are truly proficient.
"My lord, I think judging by our level..."
"Okay, McCarthy, are you questioning my decision?" Peter glanced at him sharply, and McCarthy immediately stopped talking.
And Linda saw that Peter supported her so much, and immediately knelt on the ground and happily received the order: "The subordinates must live up to the expectations of the adults, as long as someone is right, the subordinates will definitely bring things back to the adults!" ”
Peter was satisfied, "Well, get up, Linda." I hope you don't live up to my expectations of you. ”
"Yes, Master Peter, I'll lead my men out of the city now. Zhao Qi, come with me. Linda's ill-intentioned eyes made Zhao Qi immediately understand Linda's thoughts.
Indeed, Peter promised not to diminish his merits, but did not say that he could not be killed.
Linda had long seen Zhao Qi unpleasantly, and outsiders couldn't be killed, so she could just relieve her hatred. She was sure Peter wouldn't blame her for this!
Mandy secretly glanced at McCarthy, got up and retired with great displeasure, and returned to his mansion in a rage.
And Zhao Qi obediently left Peter's mansion with Linda, and Peter left McCarthy behind.
McCarthy knew that Peter should have something to tell him, and the two came to the garden in the castle, and Peter asked McCarthy lightly: "Has there been any results in his recent investigation of Leng Tie?" ”
McCarthy bowed his head and replied respectfully, "No eyebrows, my lord!" ”
"Well, how is your acquisition of items and equipment going?"
McCarthy immediately replied: "The first batch of goods is already in my hands, and I can resell it, don't worry, the villain will come to visit the adult in a few days." ”
"Well, if you really find the dwarf's alchemy this time, then you can start killing Zhao Qi."
McCarthy lowered his head, his eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, he had to admire Zhao Qi here.
He didn't understand why Zhao Qi was in such a hurry, Zhao Qi only said one sentence to him: "I can afford to wait, Peter is not in a hurry." ”
At that time, he was very confused, but now he admires Zhao Qi's five-body throwing.
Peter was really as Zhao Qi expected, and he couldn't wait. Although he knew it in his heart, he had to continue to pretend to be confused on the surface.
"My lord, don't you still rely on him to find cold iron?"
Peter snorted coldly, "Although he is a little clever, he is only cleverness after all, I want a loyal person like you." And he's just relying on his own ability, and he doesn't know how thick the sky is. How? Reluctant? ”
McCarthy hurriedly replied: "Zhao Qi does have the grace of knowing the villain, but he is indeed too ignorant of the heavens and the earth. And when it comes to injustice, it is also his injustice that comes first, and he takes refuge in Mandy. ”
Peter nodded with satisfaction at McCarthy's answer, patted McCarthy on the shoulder and said earnestly: "After all, he is the outsider, and we are the same race!" ”
For Peter's words, McCarthy only had a sneer in his heart. The same race, the same race is used to kill each other, and the fallen angel clan even kills each other, let alone the same race.
Senel killed his mother and nearly tortured him to death. If he hadn't relented, admitted defeat, and became the captain of the city defense team, he would have died a long time ago.
At that time, who would tell him that he was of the same race, brothers, or even fathers and sons?
Only Zhao Qi, an outsider, told him one thing, if he wanted to live well, then it was useless to rely on himself and expect anyone.
Out of Peter's mansion, he looked back at the statue at the top of Peter's Castle, and he thought that soon, the statue would be replaced by his!
As long as Zhao Qi is here! As long as the two are mutually beneficial, advance and retreat together!
What he lacks now is strength, and the squadron leader needs at least gold, or even gold-level strength.
And now he's still a three-star silver...
Linda led her five subordinates to march through the underground passage under the leadership of Zhao Qi.
On the way, Linda asked puzzledly, "Why don't you ask the person who found those words to lead the way?" ”
"Hehe, Lord Linda, do you think it's appropriate for you to follow two ordinary players?" Zhao Qi's words are also right, people like Linda are equivalent to nobles, and players are like slaves.
There is also a difference between slaves, just like some slaves are stewards, and it is normal for nobles to take stewards out with them.
But some slaves wash toilets, isn't it weird that you go out as a nobleman and take a slave who washes the toilet out?
After a pause, Zhao Qi continued: "My lord, do you hope that someone else will share the credit with us?" ”
“...”
Linda had to say that Zhao Qi thought it thoroughly, so she didn't have anything to say and followed Zhao Qi to move on.
Almost outside the barrier of the goddess camp, Zhao Qi and the others drilled down the underground passage. The underground passage at the beginning is very narrow, and only people can climb into it.
Linda had no choice, following behind Zhao Qi, several people climbed for a long time, and Linda asked impatiently, "Have you arrived?" It's all out of the enchantment! ”
"It's coming soon, go straight ahead, turn left, and then there is a slope..."Zhao Qi said the route in front of him, introducing it as he walked.
Linda silently remembered it in her heart, and then suddenly laughed: "Zhao Qi, you have a good memory!" ”
"It's okay, it's okay." Zhao Qi continued to crawl, but Linda condensed a black magic gun in his hand behind him, and stabbed Zhao Qi in the back mercilessly. (To be continued......)
