The afternoon negotiations started on time at two o'clock; Tkavic, the cardinal, sat quietly in his seat as in the morning, and handed everything over to his deputy. Layman, the other deputy, was just like the negotiation in the morning, his eyes were looking straight at everything, his body was straight on the chair, but he didn't say a word, like a sculpture.
Everything was just like the negotiations in the morning. The two sides focused on their respective positions and started a verbal war without giving an inch. However, Ye Qi, who was sitting there half-closed, had a completely different mind from the morning. The words of the red-clothed archbishop are still echoing in his heart, including surprise; at this moment, Ye Qi can be sure that when the red-clothed archbishop went to meet the tower owner of the Moonlight Night Tower last night, he also mentioned The same thing; although I don't know what the answer of the tower master of the Moonlight Night Tower is, but according to Ye Qi's guess, the result should be biased towards 'his answer'.
After all, as a demon hunter, it would definitely be a blessing to lose such a great enemy as the Holy See. Similarly, if this future greatest enemy could be eliminated in other ways, then Ye Qi Naturally, he is also willing; however, the question now is, how long has this cardinal archbishop started this plan? Or in other words, how many people did the other party contact
If it was just a few high-level executives at the Demon Hunter Headquarters, then Ye Qi would not have any hope for this plan at all. With the power of the head of the Inquisition in the Holy See at the moment, if the red-clothed archbishop naively thought that he would A few foreign aids can overthrow the opponent's rule, so it is really a joke. And it's a very bad joke; if that's the case. Ye Qi could even predict the final tragic end of the cardinal: after being completely deprived of honor, status, and rights. Immediately be executed!
If you're lucky, you'll be like a rat crossing the street and be hunted down by the entire Holy See for the rest of your life!
I am referring to an appropriate opportunity, an opportunity that is so coincidental that it can regenerate the Holy See, but it will not plunge the entire Lorant into the quagmire of war...
The words the other party said resurfaced in Ye Qi's mind again, making Ye Qi unconsciously try to figure out the meaning. Obviously, the other party's words are definitely not a hypothesis, but a kind of affirmation; Tone, or expression. All of them speak for themselves.
And to be able to make the other party have such a certainty, it must be that the other party is sure that in the near future, there will be a great change in the Holy See. No matter what the great change will be, the other party is obviously sure to realize his ideal from it!
"Is this a surprise? Seriously, it's one of the few good news I've heard in hundreds of years!" As the other party to the contract, the secret conversation between Ye Qi and Tkavic at noon, Naturally, it is impossible to hide from the strange wolf; at this moment, the strange wolf is expressing his feelings full of excitement.
"It's just a piece of news. Before it becomes a fact, I don't think you should be so excited!" Ye Qi expressed his suggestion very impressively: "And. I think that with such excitement, you might as well think about it How to face your old opponent! Of course. I mean, in the current state!"
Although Ye Qi already has a general search method for the remaining statue of the strange wolf, but as Ye Qi said just now, when there is no fact in front of him, it is all illusory, and it should not make people feel like this Moreover, Ye Qi, who is used to listing the best case, worst case, and general case three different solutions before doing anything, naturally cannot take everything for granted .
However, this time it is obviously not his business alone; therefore, some inevitable situations naturally require a certain amount of communication between the two parties.
"Just in the current state?"
After the rhetorical question, the strange wolf was rarely silent; knowing that the other party was thinking, Ye Qi chose to wait for the other party's answer, and also remained silent; after a full ten minutes of real time, the strange wolf spoke again .
"If we assume the current state, our chances of winning are less than 10%!" Strange Wolf's lazy tone was completely replaced by seriousness at this moment. It explained his current state in the easiest way for Ye Qi to understand: "My abilities, the three most important abilities, haven't been unblocked; in this state, if I face that guy, it's like facing the Legendary Realm at the Moonlight level; even if it's bad luck God, there are ten deaths and no life!"
"Do you still remember that I once said that my ability is divided into nine parts, representing all parts of my body?" Looking at Ye Qi who nodded, Weilang continued: "From the beginning until now, what you have found My body, left arm, right arm, left leg, right leg, and both eyes! Although these are indispensable parts for breaking the seal, they are infinitely less important than those that have not been found!"
"Every time I hear your description, I always feel that you have met a perverted murderer, completely in a state of being dismembered after death!" After expressing his feelings about the strange wolf's situation with his own understanding, Ye Qi asked: "Then what are the remaining parts?"
"Horns, hearts, wings!"
The strange wolf replied very simply.
"The heart is the heart; but, your horns? Isn't it only demons or devils that have horns? If there are wings, then they are wings..." Ye Qi had to add to the strange wolf's simple answer; but , but the supplementary results made Ye Qi raise his eyebrows: "Don't tell me that you not only have demon or devil-like horns, but also have bat-like wings! This is completely like an evil god!"
"You are the evil god! I, Amon... my horn represents my crown, a symbol of my becoming a king; and the wings are my scepter, a symbol of my exercise of power; understand? "Speaking of this, the strange wolf stopped abruptly, and then explained to Ye Qi. Ye Qi was not surprised by this, in fact. Every mention of the past. His indentured companion would start changing the subject with all sorts of excuses; not even the slightest bit was ever revealed to him.
Although. Ye Qi would naturally be curious about such a concealment, but observing the bottom line of both parties is the basis for him and the strange wolf to get along happily because of the contract; point of destruction.
"I understand the literal meaning; but the actual meaning, I don't understand!"
Ye Qi replied accordingly.
"The actual meaning. That is the literal meaning; just like the functions they represent, if you find my horn and my wings, then our chances of winning will increase by 30%; and if you find my heart , this chance of winning will increase by 10%!" The strange wolf did not give Ye Qi an explanation, but talked about the importance of the statue represented by the remaining three parts, and it paused slightly: "Actually, as long as you find the horns, heart, and wings, Even if there are no other parts, I can use time to gather enough strength to break through the seal!"
"Is that so?! It seems that the three things represented are really important to you!"
Ye Qi said slowly that after the subconscious emphasis of the strange wolf, Ye Qi certainly would not believe it. The literal meaning is an answer like an actual explanation; Ye Qi can be sure that there is a certain meaning hidden in it; after all, according to his relationship with his contract partner, when the other party often avoids the important and ignores the important, it naturally hides extremely valuable secrets.
However, it is naturally not an easy task to dig out such a valuable secret from the other party's mouth. Although most of the time, the other party is like a chatterbox, but when faced with truly valuable information, it is not easy. It is like the iron general guarding the door, and he will not utter a word at all; unless, he will pay the corresponding benefits.
"As it used to be... These are naturally very important to me! And they are also very important to you! After all, we are now grasshoppers on the same rope. I am unlucky, and you are also unlucky..." The strange wolf looked like a rogue: "So, for everyone to live a safe and happy life, I think you should work hard to find my statue!"
"Safety, happiness? After signing a contract with you, the existence described by these two words has already left me!" To Ye Qi, the nonsense chatter is nothing more than a bunch of nonsense from people who are getting old and whose memory is beginning to blur; compared to such nonsense, it is more interesting for him to come and listen to the current negotiation .
At the very least, Ted, the cold-faced man, and Zola, who are negotiating parties, will quote arguments even if they have been arguing about one thing; instead of being like a repeater like a strange wolf, what is repeated over and over is just He said another thing that he had heard countless times.
…
Sealed place, Bluestone Hall.
The strange wolf lying lazily on the ground, looked at the only three pillars of fire that soared into the sky and plunged into the endless starry sky in front of him, and couldn't help but let out a long yawn
"Really, I almost slipped my mouth if I was not careful!" Amidst the yawn, the strange wolf murmured vaguely to himself: "Although if this guy continues to grow at the current speed, sooner or later he will know what those things represent. meaning, but if you know it in advance, it is not a good thing!"
"What's more, I know in advance, and the possible transactions at that time will have to be ruined!" The strange wolf who talked to himself here shook his head straight: "No, no, we must be careful in the future; after all, This little guy has escaped from the realm of mortals!"
Maybe, it's time to find a chance to remind him? Make him grow faster
No, this little guy's bloodline is really special; until now I haven't figured out where it comes from...
If you didn't figure it out, you changed the little guy's original trajectory at will; guess the source of that blood...
Just let him develop on his own!
Anyway, judging from the current situation, the path chosen by this little guy is also very good!
This kind of thought involuntarily appeared in the bottom of the strange wolf's heart. Before it fully recovered its strength, the strange wolf didn't want to cause extra problems; Draw in all the forces that can be drawn in to deal with its old opponent.
And the blood of its contractor is obviously a force worth wooing!
…
When the sun had already set in the west, the faint cheers began to come. The first day of negotiations came to an end after the Holy See was willing to pay an extra 150,000 Kimptons. The demon hunters gave up their pursuit of the original judge; in short. This is a result that both parties can accept.
And when he heard the final result, Ye Qi was surprised at the richness of the Holy See, and he also sincerely admired the skill of the head of the referee. No wonder so many people in the Holy See were willing to join him, just because of With the handwriting of the 150,000 Kimptons, it is enough to make some people in the Holy See willing to die.
Ye Qi could completely imagine that when today's news spread back to the interior of the Holy See. What kind of change will there be? Not only will Chester who acted as a scapegoat bend down in front of the head of the court with tears of gratitude, but even other people will be more inclined to the head of the court; after all , who wouldn't want to be served by someone who is willing to do his best to save the lives of his subordinates
One hundred and fifty thousand Kimptons is not much in terms of numbers alone, but if it is counted in Kimptons, it is enough to surprise anyone; Demon hunters can only get a subsidy of one million banknotes every year, and the exchange between Kimpton and ordinary banknotes is basically at a value of 1:200; Kimpton is only about five thousand Kimpton; however. The five thousand Kimptons can already make anyone a small rich man, even in a city like Xialin District. You can live your life with ease.
What's more, needless to say, it's 150,000 Kimptons!
This amount of money, even in the eyes of ordinary rich people, is a figure that is tempting. Just like Little Doug's father, the Doug family is famous for running the antique business. It's just the number.
And this huge amount of money has been decided long before the negotiation started. Except for the compensation for the demon hunters who died in Qianmao District, the rest will be handed over to the person in charge of Qianmao District; whether it is The other party's tribe who died in that battle, or the bazaar under construction, undoubtedly needed the money even more.
"Ye, how about going for a drink tonight?"
At the end of the first day of negotiations, after the tense atmosphere between the two sides relaxed slightly, Ted said goodbye to the Holy See and his party while walking outside, and proposed to Ye Qi.
"Although it's not that I'm not good at drinking, but if I drink with you, I will definitely be the one who gets drunk!"
Ye Qi deliberately refused Ted's invitation with embarrassment.
"Today is Midsummer Night! It's the day of celebration!" Ted stopped in his tracks, pointed to the louder voice outside, "Listen, the lads below are already preparing to go to Shaker's city If you don't hurry, the Dolphin Bar will be full!"
"It's because of Midsummer Night that I can't drink with you!"
Seeing the trainee apostles gathered in groups below, Ye Qi still shrugged in embarrassment.
"Why?"
"Captain Else!"
Ted's questioning was interrupted by the answer from the cold-faced man on the side; after hearing such an answer, Ted slapped his forehead and nodded suddenly; however, the next moment he seemed to think of something, a Grabbing Ye Qi who was about to leave: "Hey, I remember that Captain Elsie is on duty today, right? Even if you go, according to Captain Elsie's temper, he will not go to the carnival with you! Don't you just Are you planning to stand beside Captain Elsie and accompany her on duty?"
Ye Qi didn't answer, but that silence undoubtedly expressed acquiescence.
"Okay, okay!" Ted looked helpless, but he didn't let go of Ye Qi's arm: "Since this is the case, then we should go for a drink; beside Captain Els, you But absolutely no apple pie and mead; have a drink before going to Captain Else, after all, you'll be together all night!"
"Then have a drink!"
Facing such a stalking request, Ye Qi pretended to be helpless and agreed.
"Nuofa, let's have a drink together? Bi has been tense all the time, today is Midsummer Night!" Ted patted the cold-faced man's shoulder vigorously, and said loudly: "Besides, we have been busy for a day, shouldn't we Want to relax?"
"Okay, okay, as long as you stop patting my shoulder first!"
The cold-faced man took two steps back, also looking helpless.
"Hahaha, then let's go change and wash, and let's go!"
With a loud laugh, Ye Qi and his party once again bid farewell to Archbishop Tkavic and Lehman beside him, and let Ted leave.
"Midsummer's Eve is a rare festival, you can also go to the carnival!"
Looking at Ye Qi and his party going away, Tkavic looked at the people around him with a smile unique to the elders, and said slowly, including the five accompanying people.
