Chapter 703: Cooperation

Noticing Sophia's gaze, Mephistopheles looked at her as well, and the two met their eyes. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Maybe I'm saying it too shabby for you to believe, but I want to ask you to stay on the sidelines, because the stakes are high, and we don't want things to fall to the point of no return. ”

How sincere is Mephistopheles's words...... Sophia really didn't know, but there was no better way than to do what Mephistopheles said. In desperation, Sophia could only stretch out her hand to Mephistopheles.

With that goal achieved, Mephistopheles smiled on her face and shook Sophia's hand.

"In the name of the businessman, I assure you that you can't go wrong with this decision. ”

With that, Mephistopheles tried to withdraw her hand, but Sophia tightened her grip further.

"Now that we've reached a consensus, I have one last question that needs to be answered. ”

Sophia said.

"What do you know about Jeffrey Liblom as a man? ”

Not as if surprised by Sophia's question, Mephistopheles had just the right amount of embarrassment on her face.

"This problem doesn't do anything to solve the problem at this stage, and it involves the privacy of others, and it's the biggest scar on Jeffrey Liblom's body, even if you do, do you want to get involved?"

Sophia wasn't swayed by Mephistopheles' words, and she looked Mephistopheles in the eye.

"You should know how I'm going to answer. ”

Compared to Lucia, there is no need to hesitate about this little thing.

"Some people used to say that I wasn't strong enough, but I was able to make up my mind about this kind of thing. ”

The smile disappeared from Mephistopheles' face, and his expression became calm but full of seriousness.

"Maybe my statement is not correct, so let me reiterate it...... I'm asking you to advise you not to meddle in things that you shouldn't be in charge of, but I'm a businessman, and protecting the privacy of guests is the most basic business ethics. ”

Sophia seemed to hear some funny joke and couldn't help but laugh.

"The devil is actually talking to me about business ethics, could it be that I heard it wrong?"

Although the two are not quite rivals, one can feel the friction between them. That's when ......

"Since you're interested in these old things, let the old man answer the question. ”

With the sound of talking, someone opened the door of the watchtower.

Seeing the appearance of the people who came, in addition to Mephistopheles, Sophia and Aegis and even Ai Bang all posed to prepare for battle.

Jeffrey Liberm, the strongest magician in the world, was standing in the doorway, wearing a black cloak under which the muscles of his upper body could be seen. Unlike before, this man, who had been called a hero two hundred years ago, was not as young as when he first revealed his true face, as if the passage of time had returned to him little by little during this time, and his originally youthful face had entered the beginning of old age at this time.

Seeing Sophia's vigilance, Jeffrey raised his hands to his side and gestured forward with his palms to show that he had no ill will.

"The old man has no intention of going to war with you, so don't worry. ”

This level of confession doesn't have any limits for magicians, especially magicians like Jeffrey, but it's a statement.

Even if she is a human being, Sophia doesn't think that Jeffrey believes more than the Demon King Mephistopheles, but since Jeffrey has expressed his attitude, it is not impossible to continue talking.

"I'm sorry, but I've borrowed it. ”

Charlotte's voice squeezed out from behind Jeffrey, who calmly walked away from the door and made way for the passage.

"If you want to continue the conversation you just talked about, come back to me. ”

Leaning casually against a wall and closing his eyes, he showed that he didn't intend to have too much contact with Sophia's side.

After watching the whole process of Jeffrey's movement intently, Sophia turned her head to look at Charlotte, she pursed her lips and didn't know what to say, the moment she heard Charlotte's voice, she didn't think of 'why Charlotte was with Jeffrey', but 'Sure enough, this guy did it'.

Charlotte came smiling, and she walked past Sophia, and found a place not so tormented by the night wind to sit down, with a dignified posture like a lady dancing at a ball.

"Originally, I was going to look for you first, but there happened to be a Salvation Army person nearby, and it was obviously easier to find the Salvation Army, so I went there first. ”

Obviously, this passage is a very insincere, condensed version of it, and there is no way to get much useful information out of it.

Sophia raised an eyebrow at Charlotte with an expression that seemed to say, 'That's it?', but it was clear that Charlotte wasn't going to respond to her, as Charlotte was looking forward to asking someone to make her a cup of tea.

Sophia sighed and walked over to Charlotte to block her gaze at Ebon full of hard pleading.

"I think you need an explanation, what do you think?"

Although Sophia said a question, she didn't intend to let Charlotte decide at all, and Charlotte seemed to be tacitly aware of this, and she shook her head regretfully, as if she felt sorry for not being able to drink the black tea made by the great magician.

"It's not that complicated. ”

Sophia nodded, she knew it wasn't complicated, but what she didn't know was why Charlotte wanted to complicate things so much.

"First of all, we lack combat effectiveness, even if everyone is combined, we can't say that we can't bear the reorganization, let alone combat effectiveness, the army is obviously very sufficient in terms of combat effectiveness and manpower, I think it would be a very good choice to cooperate with them, what do you think?"

Throwing the conversation back to Sophia with the same question, Charlotte's face looked like a little girl who wanted to be rewarded under her performance.

"Uh-huh....... ”

Sophia rested her thumb and forefinger lightly on her chin, as if thinking about Charlotte's words.

"Hearing you say that, it seems to be true...... Isn't that weird?"

Charlotte's words are fine, the problem is that the two people she calls 'cooperation' have completely opposite purposes, Sophia wants to bring Lucia back, and Jeffrey wants to kill Lucia, if these two people can cooperate, there will really be ghosts.

Subconsciously wanting to clean up Charlotte like she did with Lucia, Sophia suddenly remembered that the relationship between the two didn't seem to be so harmonious, and now she was in front of outsiders.
