The talks were tougher than anyone expected, including Varina.

He originally thought that with the ability of the "instigators" to "persuade" them to change their minds, it would not be enough to say a few words.

But the truth was beyond his expectations.

His opponent is Campbell, the current boss of the Dead Eels, the handsome brown-haired man.

12 noon.

The fighting stopped.

Everyone needs to make up for it with lunch.

At this time, even the most sluggish person has already understood that the so-called talks are useless, and there are only two people who can really influence the situation.

Lexa, the bounty hunter, and Campbell, the guild leader.

There is a magical magic in the words of the two of them, and no matter how you think about it, it makes sense, and you can't help but want to obey.

Varina was eating a lunch from a nearby café, looking as usual, but in her heart she didn't think the area was at peace.

Soon after the talks began, he was sure that Campbell was extraordinary.

But he is already at the negotiating table, so there is no room for reversal.

If he retires now, then not only will the workers downstairs be lost, but his influence will also be disillusioned like a bubble, and there is no need to think about future plans.

But if you don't retreat, you're going to be the enemy of this Campbell.

Campbell isn't nothing, what matters is his background.

After two hours of fighting in the morning, Varina could already determine that Campbell's methods of influencing others were peculiar, giving people a sense of intimacy akin to a "soul confidant".

Not "persuasion", not "guidance", not "distortion".

If you also consider the handsome appearance, and the seal mirror in Kent's house......

Then it's almost certain -

Campbell is a member of the Aurora Society, and at least a "listener", and most likely just a "listener".

This is Varina's analysis and guess through her demeanor.

In order to counter Campbell's influence on the others, he rotated several spell classes of "Instigator Maker" several times, enough for Campbell to analyze his sequence.

Varina noticed that Campbell paused for a moment, and then felt his tone tighten considerably.

If he is a "hermit", then there is no need to be afraid of an "instigator".

During lunch, Varina thought about it and realized that something was wrong with the way she had been coping in the morning.

He shouldn't have tossed Campbell.

Although it was his original plan to directly seize the dominance of this meeting with the momentum of thunder, since there was an accident with Campbell, he should make changes and adjust his strategy in time.

Varina secretly regretted that he had spent all his time arguing with Campbell and had not been able to think it through.

Fortunately, the situation is not very bad.

First, in Campbell's eyes, he also has a background - the Witch Sect.

Strictly calculated, the background is no worse than Aurora.

He was on his own, but Campbell certainly didn't know.

What's more, Campbell doesn't necessarily accept the instructions of his superiors, he may also be making his own decisions.

Second, and most importantly, there is still no winner or loser.

He has now reacted, and then he can find a way to compromise with Campbell and make a certain amount of concessions to make up for his previous mistakes.

He doesn't mind fighting for better pay for workers while he plans, but he doesn't risk his life.

Whether Campbell is on his own initiative or not, at least he can't afford to offend the Aurora Society right now.

Then you should take it seriously.

……

Campbell, on the other hand, is thinking about something similar.

He did take Varina's self-assertion as the intention of the Witch Sect, and he thought it quite far.

At first, they asked Kent to rein in the entire docklands;

As a result, Kent died, and his death was unknown, and he could not even find useful information for divination and psychicing.

Then, when he had just subdued the chaotic Dead Eels;

It was also this so-called bounty hunter Lexa who instigated a wage campaign and caused him a lot of trouble.

Now, when he was about to close the docks;

It was this "instigator" who instigated another movement and confronted him head-on.

It seems that the Witch Sect's intention to meddle in the docklands is very strong.

Campbell felt that he couldn't handle it on his own.

Obviously, in the verbal confrontation, it is difficult for him to overcome the other party by relying on the "affinity" ability that he comprehends from the whispers of the great being;

Even if he is lucky to win, if the other party is angry, he will shoot on the spot......

He can't beat the "Assassin" from the same sequence of extraordinary people!

Although there may be punishment for going back empty-handed like this, it is better than losing your life.

Moreover, this is clearly the Witch Sect's calculation in advance, and he is deliberately targeted, he is not losing in ability, and it can even be said that it is not him who loses.

Thinking of this, he made a decision.

……

1 p.m.

As agreed, everyone sat back down on their respective couches.

The war is back.

Of course, this is how other people feel.

Varina is very strange, how did this Campbell "dumb fire"? I don't need to have the ability, just rely on "Mandarin" to deal with the scene?

Although he was going to compromise, he still used a basic "charm......

Could it be that he is not spiritually inadequate?

Campbell, of course, has no spiritual deficiencies, and even relying on his ability to "affinity", he vaguely understands Varina's idea of wanting to compromise.

Oh, take the initiative to calculate, and after gaining the upper hand, you want to give up a little profit to ease the contradiction?

Do you want to send us away from the Aurora Society?

Can we suffer this kind of grievance?

In this way, everyone was surprised to see that Campbell suddenly threw the cigarette in his hand on the ground, and after a hard kick, he left the living room of the meeting.

I didn't say a word during this period!

The others exchanged glances at each other, their heads probably full of question marks.

Varina's right hand, which he wanted to recover, stretched out halfway, but he couldn't fully reach it out.

Although it was mentioned in the original book that the members of the Aurora Society were all unreasonable madmen or potential madmen, he could really guess some of Campbell's thoughts at this time.

But it is clear that he has no chance of recovery.

After thinking for a while, Varina turned his heart on the side, and before the others could react, he made up his mind-

Just go as planned!

Without Campbell's obstruction, he completely "convinced" the top brass of the Squirrel Gang in a few words, and then pointed the finger at several members of the Dead Eels.

Soon, the few remaining members of the Dead Eels were also defeated.

Varina, who dominated the audience, announced the "consensus" he had designed for the tripartite talks according to his original plan -

The three parties united to form the "Workers' Union Party".

He then proceeded with new personnel appointments.

The Squirrel Gang, the Riverbend Ferry Company, remained almost unchanged, with the exception of Burton as a deputy for liaison and oversight;

The Dead Eels, also known as the Dockers' Association, underwent a major overhaul.

Varina went through each of the current top brass individually, and then kicked out the vast majority, leaving only the capable Haz.

The chairmanship of the guild fell to Kirk's head.

Haz is still the vice president, but he parachutes in Malke, the vice president of the same level, as a constraint.

The way the association operates is basically the same, except that the commission from the assignment work has to be reduced to 20% - this has little impact on the operation of the association, because the other 30% used to belong to the president himself.

The Workers' Union Party is dominated by workers and led by Makarov.

Varina asked them to complete the general integration as soon as possible, as he was in a hurry to push his plan forward.

The best-case scenario is –

He was able to complete his plan before the Aurora Society's possible retaliation arrived, and then slip away.
