Chapter 696: Stanley's Identity
As soon as the two of them burst out of the hatch, they saw Alice and Stanley climbing down the gangway.
"Master?"
The Ice Evil immediately returned to its usual appearance.
"Why have you two been on it for so long?"
Alice climbed halfway and jumped down the gangway: "Master......" She glanced at Stanley and said, "Let's talk to my master." β......
Back in the cabin, Hurrington looked at Alice suspiciously, and the four imps also looked at them curiously.
Bing Zhixiao sat in a chair and Stanley said, "What's the matter?"
"Yes...... That's it......" Stanley was a little scared when he saw the ice childishness: "I...... Actually, my name is not Stanley, my real name is Ponte Dilmogada. β
"Wait, that name sounds familiar. Hurrington interrupted.
Neo jumped up from his stool and said, "I know, I know, Dilmogada is the emperor of the Ponte Empire. β
"Hey, Stanley, are you king?" said Cora, wiping the snot from under her nose.
Hurrington was stunned: "I see. That's right, I remember, during the battle of Yanyang City last year, I heard about the coup d'Γ©tat in the Ponte Empire. He still looked at Stanley with some suspicion and said, "Are you really King Ponte?"
"You wait. Stanley climbed up to the top of the pavilion, and after a while he came down from it, took out a ring, and said, "This is the seal ring of my Ponte Empire." β
Hurrington's eyes were sharp, and he snatched it up: "It's really a good thing." He played with it for a moment, looking at the ice childish.
Bing Zhi's evil opinion confirmed his identity, and his heart relaxed: "Then this is the reason why you want to follow us?" he didn't say it, because he had roughly guessed it.
Stanley, also known as Dilmogada, said: "I was framed by the rebels and thieves who plotted to take my throne, but fortunately I was able to escape from their murder thanks to the protection of my cronies. In the past year, they have been looking for me in the Eastern Continent, and I have no choice but to pretend to be a beggar to hide people's eyes, and I have survived to this day. β
Hurrington nodded, remembering what he had seen at first Dilmogada, and smiled, "Yes, who would have thought that the dignified Ponte the Great would become such a dirty, smelly beggar." But even if you want to restore your dynasty, you shouldn't look for us, I ......" He glanced at Alice: "Ah, you have a crush on her." β
Dilmogada said, "That's right. I've learned that Alice is the most beloved princess of the Demon Moon Empire, and if she can help me, she may be able to ......."
Barr shouted, "Hey, master, are you a princess?"
Alice smiled awkwardly.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Barr looked at his companions excitedly, "We've become the princess's apprentice." β
"Uh-huh. Cora shook her nose and nodded repeatedly: "There is not only the princess master, but also the king." It's amazing that we were able to sit on the same airship as the king and princess!"
"Don't make noise. Hurington stopped them.
Dilmagada said, "All of them will find you, and I can't help it. After escaping the Ponte Empire, I always wanted to find someone to help me, but I didn't dare to trust anyone easily with my identity. Originally, I wanted to find the king of the kingdom of Sanlegis, thinking that Sanlegis was one of the countries that split from the old Ponte Empire, and had always had a close relationship with me in private, but I didn't trust him very much after thinking about it, you know that no one like us will really trust anyone. Although there have been few wars between our five countries around Burning Sun City over the years, they have always been at odds with each other, and last year's war worsened our relations, and I know that Sanlegis will not harm their own for my benefit. I thought then that the Intercity Alliance could help me, and the Intercity Alliance is a profit-oriented group, and if I can give them enough benefits, they may help me. β
"That's good," said Hurrington. β
Dirmogada shook his head and said: "But after thinking about it, I don't think it's okay, the Intercity Alliance is a very complicated regime, the lords of each of their towns have their own political power, on the surface they are a whole, but secretly they fight each other, and many of the people in the Intercity Alliance have close contacts with our five countries, they are many talkers, in case any of them betrays me......"
Hurrington shook his head and smiled, "You're so embarrassed, and no one believes it." But think about it, now that the Pont Empire is offering a high bounty to capture you, if it were me, I would have exchanged you for a bounty. β,
Dilmogada's face changed.
Hurrington laughed, "It's a joke, but it's true." No one would compromise his interests for the sake of a stranger, let alone a king. If I were the leader of those regimes, and you were to come to me, I would definitely sell you to the Ponte Empire, so that I could still have a good relationship with the Ponte Empire. β
Dilmogada's face was a little ugly, but he continued: "Later, I wandered around as a beggar, and Zuihou wandered to Vienke in Joa, and I met you. β
Hurrington said: "You want to find the king of the Demon Moon Empire to help you through Lord Alice, but you and the Demon Moon Empire are in the Eastern Continent and the other in the Main Continent, and the Tiannan and Haibei are so far apart, how can the Demon Moon Empire help you?
Alice nodded, "yes." β
Dirmogada said: "The Demon Moon Empire is one of the largest empires on Shijie, although the two places are far apart, but the influence of the Demon Moon on the Eastern Continent is still very large. Moreover, the 17th King must be a very wise leader, and if I can meet King Bixia, I am confident that he will help me. β
Hurrington sighed and said, "I don't know anything about politics, but even if you take advantage of Alice's compassion and kindness, if you want her to help you, I'm afraid you won't be able to help you, and in the end it will be her master Bing Zhiyi who can decide all this." But......" He glanced at Bing Zhixiao and said with a smile: "But with his character, he will never make trouble for other people's affairs, so you are looking for the wrong person." β
Dilmogada seemed to see this, very disappointed but still a little expectant, hoping that the Ice Evil would help him, or expecting Alice to be tougher when the Ice Evil objected.
Alice also looked at the master, she didn't know what to do about this matter, hoping that the master would give her a decision.
Bing Zhixiao looked at Alice and said, "You let me help you decide whether to help him or not, right?"
Alice nodded.
Bing Zhiyi nodded, and turned to look at Dilmogada: "I don't like to help people for free, you want me to stand on your side, what benefits can you give me?"
When these words came out, both Yesi and Hurrington were a little surprised. Along the way, Bing Zhixiao never liked to look for trouble, he always thought about his own business, and would not go to cause trouble for other people's affairs or some interests, but now it has suddenly changed.
Hurington wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything when the words came to his lips, because he understood the intention of the ice childish evil, and couldn't help frowning.
Dilmogada was also surprised, but more of a surprise, and he immediately said, "I...... I can't give you anything right now, but I promise you in the presence of Princess Alice that when I am restored, I will meet your request. β
Bing Zhixiao smiled: "Okay, then it's decided." Alice, he wants to see your father through you, and you should help him. β
Alice opened her mouth, she didn't expect the master to say this, although she also wanted to help others, but she was surprised by the master's performance: "Master...... Master, are you serious?"
"Hmm. Bing Zhiye nodded affirmatively.
Dilmogada was very happy, and even a little excited.
After the meal, Hurrington was driving in the cockpit, Ice was reading a book on the deck, Dilmogada excitedly ran to the upstairs cubicle and didn't know what to do, and a few boys were playing around on the boat.
Alice sat in the hall cabin suspiciously, looked at the master on the deck, and thought about it again, Zuihou shook her head and ran into the cockpit, closed the hatch and asked Hulingerton: "Hey, do you know what's wrong? Today the master is really strange, not like him." β
Hurington chuckled softly, "Don't you understand?"
"Understand what?"
Hurrington let go of the steering wheel, sat down in his chair, and said, "If I didn't understand it before, I should understand it now." Think about it, how could he allow a beggar to get on our airship, and even more ridiculous, how could he let four children come up and be your apprentice?"
Alice thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "Weishenme?"
"Still don't understand?" said Hurrington, "he's been trying to get you away since Vienck. β
Alice's heart jumped, her body trembled, but she didn't believe it.
Hurrington said: "He suspects that Dirmogada is a member of the organization, maybe he is suspicious, but he simply wants to use him to find a way to let you go." Not to mention those four boys, it is obvious that they are a burden to us, and now that Dilmogada has told the truth, it is even better, he doesn't even have to think of a way, just has an excuse to let you go back. β
"Hu ...... Nonsense, master...... The master won't do that. Alice didn't believe it on the surface, but she believed it on her face. Moreover, what Hurrington said made a lot of sense, and she couldn't help but not believe it.
Hurrington snorted, "Why wouldn't he do that?" I talked about this guy, playing scheming with him, he played you to death, and you didn't even know that he sold you. β
Alice's heart trembled, Hurington was right, if she didn't tell the truth, she would really be sent away by the master's design in such a daze. Her eyes flowed out of her eyes, and she said to Herrington, "You...... You can help me persuade my master and let him ......"
"Don't. Hurington said, "I can't persuade this kind of thing." Besides, he can endure and be ruthless, you don't know who he thinks in his heart, and what he wants to decide can't be stopped at all, I am afraid of this kind of person when I see it. β
Alice cried, "Then what should I do, I was sent away by the master like this?"
Hurrington said, "This is also something you agree to yourself, you must help Dilmagada, he just agrees to let you help." β
"No, I can't. Alice wiped her eyes and said, "I have to tell the master about it." She pulled the hatch and headed for the aft deck.
Hurington shook his head, and was about to concentrate on driving, when he suddenly saw a dazzling white light outside the glass window, and he exclaimed, "Be careful, ...... danger"
Before he could finish speaking, there was a 'boom', and the white light instantly penetrated the 'Harmony', and the airship shook suddenly, and then fell to the ground......
