Being the host of the Land of Inheritance may be extremely convenient and exciting for other organizational forces, but for the Windsor Dynasty and the Knights of the Round Table, who are currently unable to protect themselves, not only cannot they defend themselves, but they may also accelerate their own decline. Perish, this is what is meant by the saying that I regard it as a treasure, but you regard it as nothing but grass and grass, and discard it like a pair of worn-out shoes.
To put it simply, if the Windsor Dynasty and the Knights of the Round Table are destroyed, then this inheritance place will be equivalent to an ownerless property. The treasures inside can be said to be the huge accumulation of wealth left by the sages and predecessors. Many people are jealous and coveted for it. If Qin If Rou insists on not letting go, I am afraid that even if it will not be destroyed, some people with ulterior motives will destroy it.
I thought that after the news was released, many organizational forces would be interested in it and negotiate with Qin Rou, but the result seemed a bit unexpected. There was almost no movement after two days in a row, just like Qin Rou The news released by Rou was like a stone sinking into the ocean, without causing the slightest ripple in the undercurrent of fog.
If something like the Huaguo Cultivation Academy just wants to come over and get a share of the pie due to geographical restrictions and does not have enough power and manpower to deal with the existence of major organizations, it can be said that it is not caring, but Europe There is no movement from the local organizational forces, which is a bit strange.
Qin Rou's thinking is right, and the response is the most correct choice at present. Unfortunately, she still miscalculated a little. The influence of the Holy Sect in the minds of major organizations in the world, no one is willing to compete with this ancient and huge underground organizations as enemies.
As for the so-called benefits, the major organizations are not in a hurry. In their eyes, if the Windsor Dynasty is overthrown, they can still get a bargain and get an extra piece of the pie. The effect is not much worse. If they negotiate a deal, they still have to pay a price. , after such a calculation, they don’t mind waiting for the Holy Sect to give the result first.
Anyway, they don't plan to take action. They are watching from the sidelines. If the Windsor Dynasty can survive, of course they won't mind starting to negotiate the deal again, and it will not have any impact on the outcome.
However, in the Windsor family, Qin Rou frowned. She is now under the greatest pressure among everyone. Whether it was killing the heads of the plutocrats of various major families with bloody means, or later giving up the identity of the host, there were definitely many voices of opposition within the family, and the leader should be her Uncle Green. Fortunately, she had quite a lot of authority within the family. Gao, coupled with Arturia's help, even if there were obstacles, it was still successfully implemented.
However, the results of these responses were not good. As a result, the pressure of opposition within the family became even greater. The threats from the outside also made her dare not take it lightly. For a while, Qin Rou was caught in a dilemma. It can be said that it is difficult to get off the tiger.
She originally thought that she could take advantage of the major organizational forces gathered in Fog City through negotiations and transactions, but she found that the other party actually resisted the temptation, making her response completely ineffective.
Artoria put the food and milk on the table with a plate, took away the half-drunk coffee that was already slightly cold, and persuaded Qin Rou who was standing by the bed looking towards the mountain behind the yard: "Tina, I I know that you are under a lot of pressure now, but you have not closed your eyes all day and night. How can you just drink coffee to force yourself to wake up? Even if you refuse to take a rest, drink some milk and eat something, otherwise you Before I could find a way to break the situation, my body couldn't hold on anymore and I collapsed... "
"Sister, I'm really not hungry." Qin Rou turned around, her face was pale and haggard, almost bloodless, and her lips were not bright even with lipstick on them. Instead, they were obviously dry and peeling, "You don't have to worry about me. , I can adjust, but I really can’t rest at ease until the current situation is resolved.”
Arturia also knows that the current situation makes it difficult for Qin Rou to rest. After all, no one knows what kind of situation she will face at the next moment. Whether she can still save her life, what does staying up late mean nothing compared to life
"Then you should drink this glass of milk, right?"
Qin Rou didn't want the other party to worry too much about her, so she nodded and drank the milk in small sips obediently.
Arturia sighed and said softly: "Tina, in fact, you really don't have to think so extreme. The Holy Sect's revenge is definitely not just against you. The Human Emperor is also the target of revenge. You tell him It doesn’t mean that he is asked to help, this is what he has to face. Isn’t it?”
clang.
The glass knocked heavily on the table. Qin Rou, who was already irritable, felt that her emotions could no longer be suppressed. But when she saw the other party's distressed expression, Qin Rou softened again and shook her head: "It's different. Yes, saying it from my mouth is not the same thing as knowing it through channels. I don’t want to make him feel that I am humble in this matter. There are too many interests mixed between us. His status is indeed high, but I I hope that we can be equal, even if it costs our lives, we will not regret it. It is destined that what is supposed to come will always come, and there is no escape, right? "
Arturia was silent. She didn't understand emotions. From childhood, the education she received was all the glory and pressure represented by the title of King Arthur. She had very little contact with people, let alone being ambiguous or romantic with boys. When it comes to love, she is a complete novice and has never even read a few romance novels.
Just when the atmosphere became silent again, there was suddenly a loud noise. The other party's voice was so loud that even though Qin Rou didn't want to listen, it still got into her ears.
"Who do you think you are? You dare to stop me?! Call Christina out! Just hide away? She had her own way before, and none of us could stop her. What did she say at the beginning? Now there is no way to end it, she just No one can be seen behind closed doors?! What should we do?!!! Let her come out!!"
This voice is very familiar to Qin Rou. It is her good uncle Green.
In the past few days, this group of people would come here to make trouble basically every day, asking Qin Rou to give an explanation, but they were all stopped by people arranged by Artoria, and they did not see Qin Rou. However, they could stop her for a while, but they could not stop her. I, today, they made it clear that they would not leave Qin Rou without giving an explanation.
Arturia frowned slightly: "I'll let them leave..."
Qin Rou shook her head and stood up: "No, it's not a problem to avoid it all the time. Since I made those decisions, now it's time to bear the consequences and the outcome. Besides, this is not the case. A chance? They are a bunch of trash, but they don’t have the guts to make such a fuss!"
Downstairs, the guards of the manor were apologizing to Green and others. However, their professionalism did not allow them to take a step back. Even though Green and others were already in high spirits and were so aggressive that they wanted to rush in, they still Use your body to form an impenetrable line of defense, blocking the entire staircase and not allowing anyone to step onto a single step.
Green was very angry. It was fine to be ignored by Qin Rou. After all, the other party was the talker of the family, but now even a bodyguard and a dog raised by the other party dared to ignore him like this. How could he endure it
Snapped!
There was a crisp slap, and Green slapped the other person hard in anger. He actually took out a pistol and put it against the bodyguard's forehead. His eyes were almost on fire: "Get out of the way! Believe it or not, I'll blow your head off with a shot?!"
For a moment, both the bodyguards and the tribesmen who came to make a fuss were stunned. After all, they were all members of the family, and making a fuss was a fuss. It was a bit too much to use a gun, even if it was just aimed at the bodyguards.
"Uncle Green, we haven't seen you for a few days, why are you so angry? Who provoked you?"
Qin Rou walked downstairs slowly, and Arturia, dressed in a black suit, followed behind her expressionlessly. Apart from the faint smile on the other person's face, the sound of footsteps touching shoes and steps could be heard throughout the room. (To be continued)
