Keith's proposal made Huey quite tempted.

Indeed, there was nothing more appealing to him than Electra's legacy. But he also knew that if he wanted the Blatter family to hand over the scraps, it would be as simple as accepting their apologies.

The Blatter family weren't idiots, and they weren't necessarily really afraid of Huey.

The reason why they sent Yuma to apologize to Xiu Yi was that they didn't want to damage the relationship with the Scourge Church, and at the same time, they wanted to get some benefits from Xiu Yi. Friendship was a toy to these nobles that could be used, and like money, it was cheaper than money, and could be obtained by lowering one's profile slightly.

Of course, they didn't expect that Xiuyi's friendship was not cheap, and it was not something that anyone could easily get.

So what did Xiu Yi have to pay if he wanted to get his hands on that fragment of the notebook, and even learn from them about the whereabouts of the other fragments.

No one wants to trade at a loss.

"The technology I have mastered, I can't give it to the high-end, and they may not be able to see it if it's ordinary. Huey said.

"That's right. "But there are a lot of things that don't have to be high-end technology to be valuable. Fortunately, in addition to knowing your name is Hue Igler, I also know your other name, Siser Dadanelle. Knowing this identity has some technology that Huy Glerle does not have. Like what...... Scout bees. ”

It dawned on Xiuyi.

The technique of the Scout Bee is not complicated, but it is extremely useful in warfare. And the Blatter family is precisely the military honor family, which can maximize the value of this technology. It's just that no one has ever known that the real owner of this technology is Huey, and even though Nanda 6 already knows about the existence of the Scout Bee, he only thinks that it is a technology unique to the Dardanelles family in Winrington.

After thinking about it, Xiu Yi shook his head: "If I sell the Scout Bee technology here, it will have an impact on the Dardanelles family. Second, it will reveal the secret that I am Cesedadagnelles. Although Huy Glare is no longer a wanted criminal in the Reims Empire, the Church of the Holy Spirit and the Arcane Tower are still my enemies. Doing so would be dangerous for Buckler. There's no guarantee that the Holy Spirit Church doesn't have people here, right? Just like you go to Peking University6. ”

"Well...... this question," Keith frowned, "It's a pity, if that's the case, you might as well talk to Duke Blatter first." ”

"Talk to him?" for some reason, Huey felt that Keith was a little too zealous on the subject.

Keith smiled lightly: "Yes, Duke Blatter has arrived, he is talking to the senator, if you are interested, I will take you to meet, maybe you can get off to a good start." ”

Xiu Yi put away the fragments: "No problem. ”

Following Keith, Huey arrives in the small parlor. It is a place where church leaders meet distinguished guests, and the religious leaders of the Church of the Scourge are themselves political figures, and are also often involved in political decisions, so the secular hospitality is quite luxurious.

Walking into the small living room, Xiu Yi could see that the floor was covered with the rarest purple velvet carpet from Peking University 6. This kind of carpet is sewn from the skin of a small purple deer that is just three months old, which is the softest and most comfortable. A carpet like this would require at least dozens of little purple deer to sew it, and the craftsmanship was so delicate that there were no traces of stitching at all, and a picture of the incarnation of the god of the underworld was painted on it.

On the walls of the small living room are the masterpieces of the most famous contemporary and ancient painters, as well as beautiful sculptures made of silicon crystal, an alchemical material.

Not far away, a middle-aged man was chatting with Isado, he looked burly, with a majestic appearance, and a fierce aura all over his body. This person should be the patriarch of the Blatter family, the nobleman of the Serra Emperor, the Marquis of Andre Blatter.

When he saw Huey come in, the Marquis of Blatter was obviously amazed, and he exclaimed, "Let me guess, this should be our honored guest, Huy Glare." ”

Huigler bent down towards the Marquis of Blatter: "Your statement makes me honestly afraid, Your Excellency. ”

"Oh, you're welcome, I haven't apologized to you for my daughter's recklessness and stupidity, and in fact I'm here for it. I must admit that I have been away for a long time over the years, and my discipline of my children is very insufficient. Thankfully, the situation is not at worst, and we can do it back. The Marquis of Blatter said in an impassioned tone, and Huey felt that the Marquis was not only a soldier, but also a very qualified politician - he was very good at acting.

"Miss Yuma had just come to me, but it seemed that my words had annoyed her, and she ran back crying. Huey said.

The Marquis of Blatter paused for a moment, and then he smiled quickly: "Oh, it doesn't matter, young man, he is always easily excited. In fact, Yuma's temper may not be very good, but if you get along with her for a long time, you will realize that she still has some good advantages. ”

After a long time?Xiu Yi sneered in his heart, this Marquis of Blatter is indeed very good at talking.

But just then, another discordant voice suddenly came: "Is this what you think? I thought you had come to seek justice for your daughter, but you whispered in front of the man who almost killed your daughter. This is really unacceptable, you have lost the face of a nobleman, and you have lost the basic glory of a soldier!"

Outside the small parlor, another guest walked in, with a slender horse's face and a serious expression, and his eyes were full of hatred and anger when he looked at Xiui.

"Who is this......" Huey looked at Isado with a puzzled look.

Izado replied, "Marquis Ivan Nepulton, Chancellor of the Serra Empire, in charge of criminal law. ”

"It's a pity that I haven't even been able to punish my own son's murderer!" said the Marquis of Neppleton, striding in front of Huey.

Huey understood that the Marquis of Neppelton should be the father of the noble prince named Ferrer, who had been stabbed in the right hand by him with a dining knife. It seems that this incident has annoyed the Marquis quite a bit. He should have come to ask Master Hue Igler for his guilt, probably because after hearing that Blatter was coming, he thought that he was also coming to Isador for his daughter, so he hurried over to cheer for Blatter. But it didn't occur to him that Blatter was not his ally, and in turn threw an olive branch to Huey, which almost drove him crazy.

"Are you going to ask me for your son's injuries?" asked Xiui leisurely.

"Of course, you hurt the hand of a nobleman for no reason, and left his hand disabled! This is a capital crime!" Neppleton didn't care who Huey was, Feller was his only son, and now his hand was injured, and it was likely that he would never be healed, that is, his son Feller, the heir of the Neppleton family, turned out to be a cripple.

This is unacceptable to His Excellency the Marquis in any way.

"Oh, is that so, if it is a capital offense to hurt a nobleman's hand, then how can it be explained that your son is stabbing me from behind and wants my life?"

"I'm sorry he didn't stab you, little bastard, so now you can still stand here and provoke me. But if you think that with the Church backing you up, you can ignore the laws of the Empire, then you are very wrong. Neppelton snarled at Huey.

"Are the laws of the empire only for the nobility?" Huey said with a smile, "As a law minister, I don't think you're qualified. ”

"How dare you insult me!" Neppleton yelled and raised his fist.

But his fist failed to smash down, and Isado's hand waved slightly, and a soft wind held the Marquis of Nepleton. This was the first time Huey had seen Isado move, softly and elegantly, but he couldn't tell what kind of magic it was.

It seems to be twisted by hand, which is completely different from Nicholas's domineering horizontal.

"Neppleton, you've done too much. This is the headquarters of the Church of the Plague, and the ground beneath your feet is God's domain. No one can use force here. There's a faint warning in Izado's voice.

Nepulton was forced to take a step back and lower his fist. He bowed to Isado: "I am sorry, Your Majesty Isado, your wisdom is known to all, your fairness is convincing to all. As the most devout believer of the Church of the Plague, I dare not disobey you, but I also hope that you will respect the laws of the Empire and not harbor a prisoner who has harmed the nobility. ”

"I have never shielded anyone, Ivan, but your son has done something wrong and has been punished for it. I think this is fair and there is no need to delve into it. "Although Isador is the patriarch of the church, he does not want to be overpowered.

"I don't think that's fair. The Marquis was visibly excited: "Ferrer is a good boy, you have watched him grow up. His hand was badly wounded, and several of his meridians were broken. I was told that maybe his hand would not heal in his life, and that he would not even be able to pick up a knife and fork with his right hand to eat!"

Isador sighed slightly, and he turned to Xiui, "Did you hear that?"

"Yes, the Patriarch. ”

"Feller's nature is not too bad, he is just prone to righteousness at times. He's still young after all, and I think we should give him a chance. I know you're the best alchemist in the world, and you have the best potions, right? I think you can get his hand back completely. This is a good option for settling grievances. ”

Xiu Yi thought for a while, and finally nodded: "You're right, under the crown of the patriarch, I can take action to heal his hand, but I never act in vain, I need to repay the price." ”

"You can only receive my forgiveness!" exclaimed the Marquis de Neppelton.

It seemed that the marquis had no idea who he was up against.

Huey sneered.

Issa heard something meaningful: "What do you want?"

"Remnants of Electra's notes. Huey replied, "I know that Lord Marquis Blatter has this in his possession, and I know who else has two other copies in his possession." Unfortunately I can't get anything in exchange, but perhaps Master Nepleton can pay for me, and in return, of course, I can help him heal his son's hand. ”

Isadore laughed, "You're just a merchant, Hugh Igler. ”

The Marquis of Blatter was also dumbfounded, he looked at Neppleton, touched his chin and asked, "What should I ask you for?"

Neppelton's face flushed: "This little bastard ......"

Marquis Blatter laughed: "Forget it, Neppelton, there's no need to be angry about this anymore. Now that Xiui has promised to heal your son's hand, let all the grievances pass. Speaking of that scrap of note, it really didn't help to keep it with me. I can give it to you, Hue Igler, but I don't need to be paid, I just want to get your friendship, and that's the best pay for me. ”

"You've got it. Xiu Yi replied politely.

Neppleton said viciously to Huey, "If you can't cure my son, I'll let you know what to regret." I don't care who you are. ”

"You better care. "You'd better figure out who you're talking to before you make a decision," Izado said. Your son's injury has made you reckless and impulsive, which is not good. Sometimes it can have fatal consequences for you. ”

Judging from the behavior of a civilian official in Napleton who actually tried to wave his hand at Xiuyi, he absolutely did not know who Xiui was beforehand. And now he just knows that Xiu Yi seems to be an alchemist with decent skills.

Although the alchemist has a high status, compared to a marquis, it is always a little worse.

But Izado's reminder could not help but make the marquis cautious. In fact, after learning that Xiu Yi was willing to heal his son's hand, he calmed down a little, and then began to realize the problem.

Huey retreated with great interest, leaving only Blatter and the three of them in the small parlor.

Blatter shook his head helplessly at the Marquis of Nepleton: "You shouldn't just break in like this, the magnanimous patriarch can ignore your faux pas, but you almost missed Your Majesty's business." ”

"Your Majesty?" Neppelton shuddered at the sight of the term.

"Yes, Your Majesty. This is what Your Majesty meant. The Marquis of Blatter replied, "It is also the common meaning of His Majesty the Senator and His Majesty the Emperor." We need to repair Iglaire, we need the technology in his hands, which is a very important strategic resource. And your impulsiveness nearly ruined our plans. ”

"Could it be that he is the ......?"

"Yes, Huygliel, the only one who has the skills to make the teleportation circle and the spatial ring, and you, even want to condemn your son to death for his hands. You're crazy!"

Neppelton was completely unconscious.

Isaddo's face was serious: "You still have a chance to change all this, Ivan, while he goes to treat your son." Don't make stupid mistakes again!"

—————————————

All Saints' Palace, the palace of the Emperor of the Serra Empire.

Emperor Jenkin was sitting at the back of the dragon case at the moment, looking at the report sent by Blatter.

On the surface, the emperor looked like a thin old man, not good-looking, and often had a smiling smile on his face. But the depth of his scheming is beyond the reach of any nobleman, and the kind face on the surface provides an excellent cover for his means.

Speaking of his origin, in fact, like the current Emperor Mieya of the Reims Empire, he is also not from an orthodox background. It's just that his usurpation methods are more complex, more insidious, and more effective in the long run.

As early as when he was a prince, Jenkin had a close relationship with the Scourge Church at the time, and became friends.

Since the Church of the Scourge is a presbyterian system, whoever controls the Presbyterian Church controls the power of the church, so as a prince, Jenkin spared no effort to support Isador at that time, helping Isadore improve his personal strength, and also helping him to control the power of the church.

When Isado finally succeeded in entering the Presbyterian Church and becoming a member of the ruling body, the first thing Jenkin did was to be a secret soldier, sending people to kill several of Izado's political opponents in the church, and soon helping Isador become the patriarch of the Church of the Scourge.

After becoming the patriarch of the Church of the Natural Disaster, Isador vigorously reformed the sect, controlled the overall situation of the church, and actively built up the armed forces. Since then, the Church of the Scourge has been Jenkin's greatest assistant, and three years later, with the help of the Church of the Scourge of the Scourge invaded the Palace of All Saints in the Sierra Empire and removed the new emperor, his brother, from the throne.

The huge success of this gamble brought huge profits to Jenkin and Isado. From that day on, Jenkin began to attack the surrounding Xiaoguo in all directions. The soldiers, encouraged by religious fanaticism, rose in battle, and the conquered nations, soothed by the clage, were quick to recognize the authority of the new lord and serve him faithfully, and rebellion and disobedience were greatly reduced.

In this way, along the way, the Serra Empire gradually annexed the entire Nanda 6, except for a few tropical forest areas that are not suitable for human survival, deserts, savannahs, river valleys, etc., all of which were in the bag, forming a unified empire in Nanda 6, and the status of the Church of the Natural Disaster in Nanda 6 has also skyrocketed.

This is the most typical successful case of the union of church and state, and it also fully illustrates the necessity of religion to exist in such a social environment.

Therefore, anyone who underestimates His Majesty the Emperor is very wrong.

For Xiuyi's arrival and his purpose, Emperor Jenkin has long been clear, and the emperor is also well aware of Xiuyi's ruthlessness and ability.

But that didn't stop him from playing Huey's idea, hoping to get more out of him.

If he could, he hoped it would be all.

"What kind of person do you think this is, based on your contacts with Huyglier?" asked Emperor Jenkin after reading Blatter's report.

"It's hard to say, Your Majesty. The Marquis of Blatter replied respectfully: "On the surface, he is only a teenager, a little arrogant, but at the same time very knowledgeable. However, His Majesty Isa has reminded me, consciously or unconsciously, that Huyglaire has a very strong merchant nature. It seems that there are a lot of things that he is only willing to do by way of trading. If you want something out of him, you have to pay the price. From this point of view, even if he is allowed to sell the technology of the teleportation circle, the only problem is that we can't come up with anything that can attract him. ”

"Oh, how about giving him a city?"

"I'm afraid not, as far as it seems, all the things he is interested in are extremely difficult to obtain. Like Electra's alchemy, like Nightmare Horse, like the Book of Darkness......"

"We can't afford to pay that price. Emperor Jenkin replied categorically. He thought for a moment, touched his chin and asked, "Is it possible to use a more direct method?"

The Marquis of Blatter clearly knew what the emperor meant: "Honestly, I can't answer this question. But it can be seen that Hue Igler is not an easy person to deal with. I'm afraid that if he dares to come, he won't be afraid of that method. And His Majesty Issa doesn't support us doing so. He prefers to use a more conciliatory approach and get Huyglaire to hand it over voluntarily. ”

"Maybe he just seems not afraid?" asked Emperor Jenkin, "there are very few people who are not afraid of death. ”

"That needs to be carefully considered, if not, I'm afraid we will lose even what we have gained. ”

"And what if there's a scapegoat?"

Blatter understood what the emperor meant, and he nodded: "If that's the case, Ivan is a good choice." ”

"Then go and give him some reminders. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor. ”

I'm trying to do another one in the afternoon, but I'm not sure if it's going to happen, so I can only say that I'm sure I'll try.
