illegitimate child? Doesn’t the Gelten family blood flow? All the treasure
Upon hearing these three words, Lei smiled coldly, turned around and left.
This woman was quite scheming. First, she used wealth to seduce him, and then pointed out the fatal flaws of her competitors, making it seem like she had a good chance of winning. If he was an adventurer who lacked experience and experience, he might have been deceived by her.
But who is he? He is a powerful lone thief in the Western Wilderness, a vicious murderer who single-handedly wiped out the entire "Iron Sand" smuggling guild, and a peerless ruthless man who even dares to provoke the God of Hunting and Slaughter!
Want to deceive him? Don’t even take a pee and look in the mirror!
What's more, he had seen too many tricks among the nobles back then. An illegitimate child without blood? As long as someone has money, bloodline can be fake and become real. It's nothing more than a spell ritual worth 20,000 to 30,000 gold coins, and the bloodline samples that need to be replaced.
Looking at the current state of the Viscounty of Gerten, even the ruling order has begun to collapse, which shows that the two sides are about to have a complete showdown. At this time, bloodline, reputation... none of it means much anymore. When the bayonet is red, the only thing you can rely on is force.
The one with the big fist wins, the one with the small fist loses, the winner takes all, and the loser is finished. This was a common occurrence in aristocratic circles, and he had even witnessed it with his own eyes before.
That Romon has already conquered all of Steele's lovers, which shows how strong his control over the territory is. This Steele is also a libertine with such a bad reputation that she can smoke a whole street despite the wind. It is completely impossible to expect any respected and important person to come forward to support her. What will happen when the two sides have a showdown? He can prophesy now.
In this case, are you still going to help Steele fight for inheritance rights
Only a fool would do such a thing!
Just as he was about to leave with a sneer, he heard Sui Xiong's telepathic communication again.
"Follow her and take a look first. This seems to be a mess."
"Your Majesty the Jellyfish God, you may not understand the human world - this matter has been decided, there is absolutely no hope." Lei thought that Sui Xiong's sense of justice had struck again, and advised, "This woman will not have a chance to stand up, so run away now It’s more practical.”
"I'm not interested in that woman. What I'm interested in is the Viscounty of Gerten."
"... As a non-human god, I think it's a bit risky to directly reach out to the inheritance of nobles." Lei advised, "What's more, what can you get from it? The wealth and power of human beings are too special for you. People and gods are useless. When it comes to developing believers, how can a person who can sell his faith for profit be pious to you?"
"You're thinking too much. I just want to administer justice." Sui Xiong chuckled twice, hiding the thought that he had never seen the struggle for aristocratic inheritance rights before and wanted to see the live action.
"...It always feels like it doesn't sound like the truth."
Sui Xiong didn't expect this guy Lei to be so sharp, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but he quickly corrected his attitude and said seriously: "You think too much, please note that I am also a kind god after all. I want to Is there anything wrong with upholding justice?”
"What's wrong with a jellyfish bringing justice to humans?"
Sui Xiong was speechless, and finally had to use the last resort to force the execution. Although Lei had no interest in these nonsense things in the aristocratic circle, after all, his arms couldn't twist his thighs. He sighed helplessly and followed Steele.
"Let me make it clear first: I don't want to help you or promise you anything." He emphasized to Steele, "I just think something doesn't seem right about this matter and want to see what's going on."
Steele nodded repeatedly, looking obedient, but secretly amused in her heart.
Just want to see what happens? It's better spoken than sung! Doesn’t she know the virtues of adventurers
The Gerten Territory is a pioneering territory adjacent to the wilderness. The territory comes from the tireless development of successive generations of viscounts. In the process, I don’t know how many encounters with adventurers I had. As the original official sole heir of the Gerten Territory, Steele has been in contact with adventurers since she was a child, and she is very clear about the moral character and behavior of adventurers - the so-called adventurers are a group of strong men who pursue interests. They are both good and evil, but they generally have two things in common: first, they respect contracts and refuse to make promises easily. After all, adventurers are a legitimate profession, and credit is very important to them; second, they pursue interests, not just for the sake of profit. Good thing, who has the nerve to do the business of licking blood with the blade of a knife!
This powerful black knight is definitely attracted by him, but now he is just not sure about the strength comparison between the two sides and how strong his opponent is, so he didn't agree. As long as he is sure that he can win, even if he is only 60 to 70% sure, he will definitely agree immediately - 60 to 70% sure is enough for an adventurer.
So she was in a good mood and even walked much more briskly.
What happened today was full of twists and turns!
Originally, because the situation was unfavorable, I wanted to go out and shoot some wild shots to relax, but it turned out that my lovers had been bribed by that guy to betray him! Facing a group of strong men who suddenly attacked, she had no power to fight back and could only wait for death. But at this moment, the savior suddenly fell from the sky. An absurdly strong adventurer passed by and killed all the traitors, saving her from a desperate situation of certain death.
In the end, things got even better - the adventurer was obviously attracted by the conditions she gave, and although he had not yet clearly agreed, he had already chosen to act with her. I believe that when he sees the Gelten family's warehouse, sees the mountains of treasures, and faces the huge wealth that makes people jealous, he will definitely stand firmly on her side.
With the support of this strong man, she is no longer powerless to fight back. Not only that, as long as she shows enough force, many officials and nobles who were originally unwilling to support the fake will change their attitudes. This inheritance battle has returned to a balance of power from a one-sided situation, and she even has the upper hand. Woolen cloth!
In the end, after winning the right to inherit and becoming Viscount Gelten, it was not up to her to decide how many things were in the treasury!
Thinking of this, her mood got better and better, and she couldn't help but smile charmingly.
"This woman is plotting against you." Sui Xiong, who had been floating above Lei's head, alerted him through telepathic communication. "She is full of malice towards you. Don't really believe her!"
The gap between mortals and gods is huge. This huge gap is reflected in various aspects. One of the most important points is the "reading consciousness" brought about by the gap in life levels.
In front of the gods, the consciousness of mortals is almost defenseless. Even if the gods do not deliberately read it, they can clearly see the general situation - the so-called "people cannot deceive gods" is what this situation is about.
This situation will gradually improve as the mortal's strength increases. When the limit is exceeded and the realm of legend is reached, the gods can no longer pry into the hearts of mortals at will - of course, whether they are still considered "mortals" at this time is a question mark. After all, legendary powerhouses are often regarded as beings above mortals.
Of course, this is not absolute. Take Lei, for example. His strength is now close to the legendary level. The adventure in the Greystone Mountains is indispensable. Unless he deliberately peeps, Sui Xiong cannot see what he is thinking. He can only You can probably tell his emotions.
In addition, a cunning guy like Renn also has a way to deceive the gods - the speaker himself doesn't know that he is lying, and of course the gods cannot see through it. He used this method to deceive Sui Xiong in the first place. He can be called a master of tricks and he is worthy of being an old liar!
In contrast, Steele has neither strong strength nor exquisite arrangements. How can she deceive Sui Xiong with what she has in mind
Even though Sui Xiong had no intention of reading minds, at such a close distance, the sneaky thoughts in Steele's mind were as clear as a bad actor reading a monologue in his ear.
"Don't worry, I'm not easily plotted." After being reminded by Sui Xiong, Lei sneered, full of disdain for that stupid woman, and full of confusion about Sui Xiong's behavior, "You've seen it, right? The world is so ugly. This kind of woman...even if she is willing to believe in you, are you willing to have such a believer?"
"I don't want to." Sui Xiong answered honestly.
"I definitely don't want to! The only one who is willing to have this kind of believer is Gloomy Moon..."
"Huh?!" Sui Xiong was stunned for a moment, gathered his strength, and carefully observed Steele from the perspective of the soul for a while, and then said, "She is not a believer of the God of Conspiracy. If I read it correctly, she should be a member of the noble family. Believer of God.”
"Oh... Noble Lady (another name for the God of Nobles), that is not much different from the Eclipse Moon. He relied on the help of the Eclipse Moon to murder the previous gods of country and diplomacy before stealing it." The three priesthoods of Nobles, Law, and Rule have evolved from a demigod to a true god. They are originally allies, so what is the difference between his followers and the followers of the Eclipse Moon?"
"Ah?!" There is no information about the God of Redemption in this story. Sui Xiong was stunned for a while, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, "Damn! No wonder the aristocratic circle is so chaotic. It turns out that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is wrong. Crooked!"
He sighed for a while and asked curiously: "The God of Nobles can be regarded as a human god. Doesn't the human god system have no reaction to this? I remember that the main god of the human god system, the human god, is from the lawful camp. Could it be that he actually allows it?" Do human gods have ulterior motives for being so secretive with other gods?"
Lei was a little puzzled: "There are a lot of evil factions in the human pantheon, why can't their own members be allowed to have contact with the Eclipse Moon? Conspiracies are commonplace in politics, even among the gods!"
Sui Xiong was stunned for a long time. He could only shake his head and sigh, and his thousands of words turned into one complaint.
"Your circle is so chaotic!"
