Chapter 0427: Fantasy Quest
Ashley frowned and refused, and the old man wrung his brow, poured the liquid back into the spoon, put it down, and walked to a table full of papers in the room, which had all the design tools used by engineers, presumably with engineering drawings.
"Come here. The old man took off his goggles, put them back on his glasses, and tapped his long nails on the table. "What do you request, stranger. โ
"I wonder what they're doing here?" Ashley walked over to the table, his fingers resting on the dagger at his waist, and if he didn't answer, he would have to use a little force to force them into submission.
"It looks like you're a bit violent, which isn't a good sign. The old man waved his hand in the air with a crisp sound.
Ashley found that the fingers placed on his waist had lost their original touch, and he looked down to see that the dagger on his waist had turned into a banana, the possessor of powerful supernatural powers, able to instantly change the items in the opponent's hand, which belonged to the space magic system and had been lost for a long time.
"Smart people will never use violence here, please sit down. The old man smirked, his palm motioning to the seat in front of Ashley. "You have to follow my rules here. โ
Ashley sat down, waiting for an answer.
"According to the rules, if you want to get information from me, or take something, you have to complete some tasks first, and the difficulty of the task is of course based on the value of the information or item you want. โ
Bowing his head and pondering for a while, the old man said embarrassedly: "You want to know their information, this is already a difficult task in itself, revealing the customer's information, I originally refused, but I can make an exception here with you, how about it." โ
Ashley had no choice but to accept the assignment.
The old man rummaged through a pile of papers on the table, and after half an hour, he took out one and handed it over. "Look, this task is suitable for you, you can refuse, I will pick other tasks for you, buy and sell fairly, never force. โ
Ashley did not refuse, the task was simple, the paladin and the girl also accepted the task, completing the task to obtain information about the target, there was no choice.
There was already some festive vibe in the city, with the authorization of King Harris V, and all the control was in the hands of Sarah, who had to invest a lot of money to make the safari festival known to more tourists, and there were signs about the safari festival on the streets, and some warm-up activities.
The warm-up included some well-known circuses brought here, as well as a number of repertory troupes, the costs of which were of course paid for by Sarah, who was already quite skilled in the business and who were already quite skilled in the business scene, and it was not difficult to mobilize these resources, just a letter away.
The most important issue is the transformation of the wild park, on which Harris V and Sara have some disagreements, according to Sarah's vision, the wild park needs to be remodeled on a large scale, including whether it should be filled with some prey to meet the needs of more people hunting.
But Harris V believes that a small amount of prey creates greater competition, ensuring the value of the hunt, and some people are willing to spend huge sums of money on the festival, which would make the festival's resources less scarce if they were to invest heavily in animals.
"It doesn't matter, just do what he says, just change the infrastructure around the wild park and make the fence stronger, so that the prey in the park doesn't have any chance to escape. Downing had picked out a linen gown, and he had to prepare for the next date.
Adele chose the location of the date on the Red Bull Plains, where the scenery is beautiful, and this time the date is alone, which is a good opportunity.
The Red Bull Plains are a haven for some wildlife due to their temperate climate and lush weeds, and the development of the Principality of Harris is limited to wildlife parks, while the rest of the country has remained untouched in its original form.
Stepping on the grass, the two got rid of the subordinates who followed. "Adele, I've heard something bad and don't know if I should tell you. โ
"What's the matter?" Adele looked back at her sweetheart, for young people, there is no love, just a mentality of being in the right place, she thinks that only such a person can be worthy of him, at least those monkeys under her father are not qualified to be with her, she never expects love, she just wants to condescendingly conquer men.
There are many young people who want to get Adele's heart, including some outstanding representatives of the Duchy of Harris, but they are all rejected by this high-spirited white swan, love does not exist, this is just an exchange, just like those animals need to mate to reproduce, Adele thinks so, this is just a means to breed a better next generation.
"Your sisters have said some negative news about you in front of others, and I think they shouldn't have any ill intentions, but it's better to let you know. Tang Ning said intermittently, "You should communicate with them." โ
Damn Olwen and Rachel. Adele cursed viciously in her heart, nervously, "Do you believe what they say? Do you think they know me better than you do?"
"I hate to believe these things, but they're your sisters, and I don't think I know you as well as they do. The look on Downing's face was rather disappointed. "I guess you should take care of this, or prove to me that they're lying. โ
The relationship between the sisters is provoked, and looking at the back of the young man leaving, the dark part of Adele's heart is being activated, this time not to outsiders, but to her own sisters.
It was part of the plan to turn the good sisters against each other, and it was safer to leave these matters to Adele than to do it herself, and Harris V must not have imagined that his relatives would take revenge on each other. "This is what you owe Uncle Harris, just as you did with Uncle Harris when you sent your own brother to a cage that will never be reduced. โ
Leaving the Red Bull Plains and returning to Caron, it's time for Marquez to make a move, collect incriminating evidence, and get Harris V's evil deeds to be punished.
The original plan was to make everyone around Harris V the prey of that wild park, but now Downing found that he couldn't do it, and something strange inside him was activating, and those things couldn't allow him to send everyone into that wild park regardless of good or evil.
Mรกrquez's kleptocratic skills make it easy to get any information and select some targets from it, and of course Wyatt's is not idle, he has to negotiate with the Holy See on behalf of the wicked people, trying to keep the Holy See in the dark and unable to know the truth.
Pope Anreda chose the location of the proclamation to be located in a small church in a small town, and of course he did not choose to take the risk and meet with those evil people, but chose to send a representative, who had been on Corona Island for a long time, and did not know what the current pope looked like, which was a condition that could be exploited.
The town is crowded, there is only one street in the town, the church is in the most prominent position, it is easy to find, the walls are mottled, and the church in a small town like this is usually built by some donations from some believers, and it will become like this when the later maintenance cannot keep up.
The tiles on the street are potholes, and there is some stagnant water, which makes it impossible to keep shoes clean, but it is much stronger than Corona Island, Wyatt has been here for a long time, tonight will be the time to meet, he is a little nervous, back to the Eternal Continent, the first contact with the Holy See, he knows that these guys, vile and shameless, hide darkness and evil under the bright exterior, these people will even stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
As night approached, when the streets of the town were completely quiet, and only a few homeless people occasionally came out to find something to eat, and the town was chosen to hide people's eyes, and the late night in the big city was not too quiet, and the Holy See did not want people to know that they had compromised with the wicked people again, and not even the slightest news could be leaked.
As agreed, Wyatt stepped forward and entered the local chapel, all the chairs in the chapel were empty, and he sat down in front of the chair at the very front of the aisle, and then placed a newspaper on the ground in front of him.
The clergy in the church took a look, without much attention, and the church that was open all day occasionally had a homeless man or some drunkard break in and sit in a chair all night, this person should be some frustrated guy or kicked out in a family dispute.
Sitting late into the night, Wyatt heard footsteps coming from the door, and he was a little nervous, reminding himself. "It's okay, Wyatt, just talking. โ
The man in his black cloak, glanced at the newspaper in front of Wyatt, sat down in the seat next to him, and then stretched out a finger with a ring on his finger, which was the Pope's ring, and then took it back and pulled the black cloak a little tighter.
"Isn't His Majesty the Pope going to show your true colors, so that we wicked people can see you for what you really are?" Wyatt pursed his lips and spoke first.
"Are you their representative?" the black-cloaked man on the side said in a low voice, and a pair of eyes under the cloak searched the surroundings for something.
"That's right, just like you, you don't come here in person, just send a representative. Wyatt picked up the newspaper from the ground and placed it beside him.
The man in the black cloak removed the black cloak from his head, revealing his true face. "I have to be cautious when dealing with you wicked people. โ
Downing was right, Anruida would not appear in person, what he saw was just a stand-in or representative sent by Anruida, and Wyatt's face showed some anger. "Anruida is afraid that we will kill him on the spot? We are just here to negotiate conditions, and it will not benefit us in the slightest to kill Anruida. โ
"No one can guess your mind, living on Corona for too long, no one can say what a madman will do. "Anruida's representatives are-for-tat. "His Majesty the Pope is willing to grant you asylum and give you legal status, but you must submit to the Holy See. โ
"What tempting conditions, to provide us with a legal identity, and then to turn us into lackeys of the Holy See, to be a tool of Anruida. Wyatt's voice grew cold and angry. "If His Majesty thinks that he is still high before us, we will prove it to him, and he will have to go down in person, and then accept our terms on an equal footing, and not in a commanding tone. โ
