Chapter 327: Collusion (2) (Ask for subscription!Ask for a recommendation ticket!Ask for a monthly pass!)
"Tell me what your conditions are. β
Kunini said bluntly.
The barrier he maintained was in the palace of the Pharaoh after all, and it could be noticed by someone who wanted to do it at any time.
"Cooperation, but only this time. β
With a flick of his fingers, the silver jug filled with the dragon-killing elixir flew out, and Kunini caught the jug, not spilling a single drop.
"Who am I working with, you...... Or Lord Davisher. β
Instead of asking about the content of the cooperation, he took the lead in figuring out who he was cooperating with - this way of thinking, which was very different from that of mortals, proved that Kunini was a qualified Batzu devil with a very clear idea.
β...... Whatever you want to understand," Commander Wenfeng pondered for a moment, and gave an answer that was neither affirmative nor negative: "It's just that you have to deal with the dragon Pasha...... At present, it is indeed in the long-term interests of the Medici Empire. β
Hearing this hypocritical rhetoric, Kunini took a sip, "You should know," he sneered, "and you mortals have many holes in the language of partial truth compared to purgatory. Of course, this does not prevent us from working together......"
All cooperation is based on "consensus".
Through a simple understanding, Kunini was surprised to find that the reason why the Great Vishur sent the Commander Wenfeng to communicate with him and intend to murder a Mediti Chipasha was actually the covetousness of the gold resources in the possession of the Quest Chamber of Commerce.
"Calamity coin," secretly reciting in his heart the common name of the demon of the lower realm for gold coins, the devil count couldn't help but sigh, "Sure enough, it is a wealth that will bring disaster to its owner, and it seems that we can see it more thoroughly than mortals." β
However, for the content of the cooperation, Kunini is actually very satisfied:
Captain Windwind promised that he would provide Kunini with a more stealthy and more successful way to poison him. In return, Kunini must cooperate with Davishal in the next period of time to devour and dismember the Scales of the Eternal Order.
"You've got to show me what the 'more stealthy' way of poisoning is, and you've got to prove that it's more successful. β
Out of a prudent nature and at the same time a conceit of his own learning, Kunini did not think that mortals could be better than him when it came to poisoning. And once the plan against the giant dragon Pasha is revealed, because the "dragon killing medicine" contains his own grudge and blood, he will definitely bear the brunt of it and receive the other party's crazy revenge.
The fact is that the demon of the lower realm is always the best person to take the blame, so he can't afford to be careless.
As if anticipating such a request, the Captain took out an object from his bosomβa small cobalt blue sculpture with a hazy halo.
It was carved into a giant dragon with wings up, but the carving was very ordinary, far from vivid.
Even an ordinary person can probably tell at a glance that this is just a bargain.
"What is this?" asked Kunini seriously.
He wouldn't think that after a long time of talking, the things he took out were of no use at all.
"This is the 'Cursed Statue', by the Great ...... All in all, it's a very useful magical artifact," explained the Captain of the Wind as he had to dispel the Devil Count's doubts, "The material comes from the scales that fell from the previous Demon Calamity, when the dragon Pasha and the Demon Lord avatared into a fierce battleβwe have only found one piece in the entire Beit City and the fjord. And its only effect is that your poison can affect the other person without direct contact, but only indirectly. β
Kunini's eyes lit up.
As the Wind Commander recited a spell, a crack opened in the back of the rough dragon statue, and he motioned for Kunini to pick up the poisoned wine he was carrying and pour it into the inside of the statue through the crack.
"That's ...... Poison will have an effect?" the Devil Count asked, nervously staring at the statue.
Commander Wen Feng carefully held the statue flat, and once again chanted a spell, and the crack in the back of the dragon-shaped statue closed automatically.
"Of course not, it's just a matter of making it work," Commander Wenfeng's words made a Batzu devil who was accustomed to playing with words a little confused, but fortunately he would continue to explain: "But there is still one step left, and only after completing one step can the poison finally be applied to the body of the cursed statue." β
......
In the banquet hall, there was a staggered list.
According to Medici custom, to entertain guests, the host must let the other person finish all the main dishes before entering the social session.
Although many people were drinking and talking, most of them sat in their seats and whispered a few words to the people they knew well.
Those who can't wait to start socializing at the moment will be considered a lack of etiquette.
However, some people don't care.
For example, when he saw Quest seated, his eyes lit up.
Probably because of the overseas islanders (but it may also be intentional), the ruler of the archipelago did not care about the stares that others looked at him, and he took the special product of braised cod that he had brought with him to accompany his meal, and thought about Ques.
Before the person arrives, the taste comes first.
Although he was a citizen of the Great Foodie Empire in his previous life, he had also eaten foods such as stinky tofu and bean juice.
But the smell of marinated cod is still a little beyond the limits of Queth's tolerance.
The young blue dragon in human form held up the berry juice drink and pretended to drink it, hoping to dispel Zaganpasha's attempts to talk.
But who knew that the other party was the same as before, as if he was familiar with himself, and walked next to Quesi.
After he swallowed the drink in his mouth, he said enthusiastically, "Lord Queth," he handed the special product from the Archipelago Territory forward, "I saw that you also tried this delicacy last time, and I specially had some sent by clipper from the Archipelago Collar to ensure that it is the most authentic." β
"No wonder," Quiss couldn't help but feel sad, "no wonder, this plate of braised cod feels a little more rushed than the last time." β
Just as the young blue dragon was pondering that he should cast a spell on this plate of food from time to time, he was also stimulated by the smell - but also aroused by the curiosity of the ogre Blue, he leaned over, grabbed a piece of braised cod from the plate, threw it into his mouth and chewed it a few times.
"It tastes good," the ogre gourmand said pertinently, recalling that Zaganpasha had met a confidant, "and the cod meat seems to have melted away, and a special salty flavor arises." As long as you can tolerate the choking smell, this kind of food is actually quite good. β
After saying that, he picked up the plate and poured the rest of the braised cod into his mouth.
