Qin Ran's tone was low, habitually indifferent.
But such words made the fourteen members of the Southern Council tremble.
Even Aitfen, the titular leader of the fourteen members of the South, was no exception.
The Southern Congressman, who has always had a gentle tone, had to take a deep breath at this time to calm down his agitated heart.
"He..."
"Are you sure it's him?"
There was no usual gentleness in Aitfen's voice, only heaviness and seriousness remained.
Qin Ran didn't speak.
After just sweeping Aitfen with his eyes, he remained silent.
Etfin was taken aback.
Then he reacted.
His question just now was really bad!
Not only did it reveal that they didn't know much about that existence, but it also revealed that they didn't understand the situation in Eitantinople at all.
There is no doubt that they have fallen into a passive state at this moment.
To make matters worse, this was his mistake, and no one else will bear such a mistake.
In fact, it is.
At this moment, the other congressmen who just reacted were looking at him with 'disappointed' and 'blame' eyes.
A bunch of poseur bastards!
Aitfen cursed in his heart, and then sighed slightly.
Careless!
The new 'God' made him confused.
However, as a leader among the southern congressmen, Aitfen quickly regained his composure.
"Your Highness Colin, what do you need?"
Etphin asked.
"A message from a god, what do you think you can get in exchange for it?"
Qin Ran asked back.
It is related to the 'gods', and any information is of extremely high value.
Even, in some respects, it can be regarded as a priceless treasure.
Ordinary Kimpton is definitely not a bargaining chip.
At least it must be a rare level of magic equipment to be used as a bargaining chip.
But it was precisely because of this that Aitfen became embarrassed.
Rare level magic equipment is not Chinese cabbage.
If you give too much, he will feel distressed.
Give less
It is simply impossible to exchange desired information.
Therefore, after a little hesitation, Aitfen said this.
"Your Highness Colin, may we discuss it?"
"Can."
Qin Ran nodded.
Afterwards, the phantoms of the fourteen members of the Southern Council fell into a certain kind of sluggishness, while the phantoms of Gelsak's faces became more and more ugly.
Obviously, with the clues of discord exposed before, coupled with the 'knowledge' of Eitantinople, the southern congressmen chose to tear their faces completely.
Monte looked at the phantom of Gelsak, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Your Excellency Gelsak, sometimes, fighting alone is not a brave man."
Jinchen said something in his words.
Gelsak glanced at the minister, but closed his eyes without opening his mouth.
But in the bottom of his heart, the superior evil spirit gave his close minister a thumbs up.
Well done!
It was thinking about how to get on the line with its own boss quietly, so as not to make people suspicious, so the close minister spoke.
If it hadn't been for the change of identity to Gelsak instead of Aitantine VI, the upper-ranking evil spirit would definitely show a "long face and joy" and praise the other party for "getting the hearts of everyone".
The old witcher on one side didn't pay attention to this.
The old witcher who didn't like the 'Secret Order of Quiet Night' now only cared about 'His'.
The old witcher looked at Qin Ran.
Qin Ran pointed to the phantoms of the fourteen members of the council. Immediately, the old witcher nodded in understanding and waited patiently.
Neither Kieran nor the old witcher worried that the fourteen members of the South would refuse.
After all, it's about a 'God' who is close at hand.
Neither organization will refuse.
Not to mention an organization like the 'Secret Order of the Night'.
…
It was still the private secret communication array.
Except for Aitfen, among the fourteen congressmen in the south, they looked at each other, and none of them spoke first.
The situation in front of me is quite obvious.
It is absolutely impossible for the Snake Sect and the heir of the kingdom to easily inform them of the information about the 'god', and it will inevitably require paying a huge price.
But for them, who just made up 280 pieces of real magic props and equipment, they don't want to bleed any more.
Therefore, after looking at each other, these councilors looked at Aitfen again.
Even though Aitefen took the bulk of the two hundred and eighty pieces of real magic props and equipment just compensated, but at this time, it does not prevent them from continuing to expect Aitefen to take the lead.
You know, the other party occupies the richest Cheka Bay in the south.
Not to mention anything else, the slave trade alone is enough to make Dealing rich.
Feeling the gazes of the allies, Aitfen couldn't help but gloomy.
"What do you mean?"
"Do you still want me to continue to be big?"
Aitfin asked angrily.
"Shouldn't it be?"
"The Cheka Bay that you occupy, Aitfin, is just more than double the annual income of all of us combined!"
The impatient congressman spoke directly.
"That's right."
"If I occupy the Cheka Bay, I will pay all the information in exchange for this time."
"yes."
"Compared to Cheka Bay's income, what is this information fee?"
The other MPs nodded in agreement.
Among them, several congressmen who seemed to be in harmony with each other began to ridicule Aitfen.
For Aitfen, who occupies Cheka Bay, there is not a single member present who is not jealous.
Cheka Bay doesn't just mean Kimpton, it means... the population!
To some extent, the latter is more valued by these congressmen.
Hoo hoo!
Aitfen's breathing became heavy.
If it weren't for all the phantoms in front of him, he would definitely let these bastards understand what life is better than death.
Cheka Bay has an enviable income and population.
But these are all built by him bit by bit.
From building a small fishing village into a big port, he has put in countless energy and has been busy with this matter for almost ten years. Now that it has been built, everyone is envious of him.
And at the beginning
He hadn't forgotten those jeers.
Damn guys!
When this incident is over, it will be your time of death!
Aitfen's heart boiled with murderous intent.
But he remained calm on the surface.
"I can pay the information fee this time."
"but… "
"The content of the information can only be known to me."
Etphin said so.
"Etfin what do you mean?"
"Have you forgotten our alliance?"
The surrounding MPs shouted.
Aitfen didn't care, he sneered a few times.
"Since you know the alliance."
"Then what did you mean just now?"
"Since you want me to pay enough, the benefits you get are naturally mine."
"If you want to know the content of that news, then show enough sincerity."
"otherwise… "
Aitfen didn't say anything in the end.
However, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
For a moment, all members fell silent.
…
This time, the wait was long enough.
Three minutes later, the minister brought a chair for Qin Ran.
"Your Highness, sit down."
"You are so clever. A simple sentence caused them to fall into internal strife."
"I guess they're dying to strangle each other right now."
The nephew spoke in a low voice.
"They were meant to be a temporary alliance."
"There is no family affection, friendship, and even interests are not pure enough."
"Crash and segregation is only a matter of time."
After Qin Ran sat down, he answered casually.
It has to be said that Monte was a very winking guy. While listening to Qin Ran's words, after Qin Ran sat down, he took a cup of tea from the dining table.
The upper evil spirit looked at the dog-legged Monte, raised his eyebrows secretly, and his eyes were full of sarcasm.
Want to impress the boss with such behavior
Innocent!
Only by working hard like me can you be valued by the boss.
Then, it immediately contacted its own boss through a contract.
'Boss, this restaurant's specialty dishes are stewed venison and velvet antler soup, and I've asked someone to arrange it. '
'After the task here is completed, you can enjoy it immediately. '
'The Temple of War? '
'Don't worry, I've made arrangements. '
' Sure to make those guys 'forever'! '
The high-ranking evil spirit who communicated with his boss through the power of the contract looked at Monte with more and more disdain.
Superficial intimacy can never compare to the fetters on our souls!
Monte seemed to have noticed the disdain of the upper evil spirit.
However, the close minister didn't care.
Has he been seen less by such eyes
Those palace ministers, noble patriarchs, guards and knights, almost everyone he knew saw him in this way.
Even some ordinary maids would do this quietly.
But he doesn't care!
What happened to the jester
What's wrong with hugging your thighs
Is he incapable
It's just that he hasn't encountered a place where he can really use it.
Now!
He will soon be Minister Gu Ming.
He will impress everyone!
He will make His Highness a Mingjun surpassing His Majesty VI!
Let the jaws of those who have been underestimated in the past be scared off.
A close minister with the desire to rule the world, served Qin Ran more respectfully, took a fruit, gently peeled off the skin, and put it in Qin Ran's hands without touching the flesh with his fingers.
The same goes for other fruits and foods.
And after Qin Ran ate about one-third of the food on the table, those sluggish phantoms finally returned to their original state.
"I kept you waiting, Your Highness Colin."
Etfin greeted again.
Although the voice returned to that kind of friendly feeling, Qin Ran keenly noticed the coldness and confrontation among the southern congressmen.
Obviously, the private conversation these MPs had just had was not pleasant.
"Have you figured out what to replace it with?"
Qin Ran waved his hand and asked.
"We will release some rare-level magic items and some 'evil remnants'."
Etphin replied.
"How much is a portion?"
"There is also 'Evil Residue'..."
"Are you kidding me?"
As he said that, Qin Ran leaned forward, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
The indifferent breath suddenly became sharp, like a sword hanging in the air, approaching the opponent's throat.
Limited by his status, Monte didn't know some information about the 'Evil Remnant', but this did not prevent him from taking his due actions as he had sworn to be Qin Ran's capable minister.
A musket appeared in Monte's hand.
The narrow muzzle of the gun is not for lethality, but for communication.
"I hope Senator Aitfen can give our Highness a reasonable explanation."
"Otherwise, I will let you and everyone understand that the dignity of the Snake Sect and the heir to the Aitandine royal family cannot be insulted."
Standing next to Kieran, Monte smiled lightly, his mouth slightly opened, revealing his rotten teeth, like a vicious dog protecting its master, ready to choose someone to eat.
"Your Highness Colin, don't get me wrong, we have no malicious intentions."
"In order to compensate you, we have already paid a great price."
"And to buy information from you this time... Each of our reserves has been exhausted."
"After all, rare magic props are not Chinese cabbage, they can be seen everywhere."
The southern congressmen didn't speak, and Aitfen still said.
Qin Ran seemed to agree with Aitfen's statement, and nodded slightly, but his tone was still stiff.
"What you said is the truth."
"However, that doesn't mean I understand."
"Don't you really know what the 'evil residue' is?"
"Or, are you testing the intelligence system of the Snake Sect and the Aitandine royal family?"
At the last sentence, Qin Ran's voice became sharper, and Monte immediately raised the flare gun in coordination. Obviously, Qin Ran only needs to look at him, and he will pull the trigger.
"of course not!"
"Perhaps these 'evil residues' have some disadvantages that we have to be concerned about."
"But it's not necessary for that 'mist' Crown Prince."
Aitfen smiled, trying to ease the atmosphere.
"Can you guarantee that the 'evil residue' you provided is the original one?"
"If I can, I don't need rare-level magic items, I just need these 'evil residues', ten of them will do."
Qin Ran, who is no longer a newcomer, already knows some rules of the dungeon world in front of him.
'Evil and different' can devour each other.
Except that swallowing the initial 'evilness' can obtain the greatest benefits without any disadvantages, swallowing the grown 'evilness remnants' will have some disadvantages more or less.
After all, the 'evil' in this dungeon world don't have the digestion ability of 'gluttony'.
In fact, Kieran doesn't mind getting more 'evil remnants' if possible.
But he will never reveal his cards.
after all-
It's time to pluck the wool!
"Even if we add up the original 'evil remnants', we haven't seen ten of them."
"We are willing to give you thirty pieces of rare magic equipment and the same amount of 'Evil Remnants', Your Highness."
Aitfen smiled wryly and reported his price.
"thirty?"
"Too little."
"At least fifty pieces, and the 'evil residues' can be appropriately reduced."
Qin Ran shook his head.
"Thirty rare magic props and equipment is our limit."
"However, 'Evil Remains' can give you fifty."
Aitfen's bitter laughter became more obvious.
Thirty rare-level magic items are naturally not their bottom line, but at this time, naturally, the lower the better.
Even, he has already figured out how to 'discuss' with the Snake Sect and the heir to the royal family in front of him.
The surrounding southern congressmen are also ready for a protracted battle.
However, when Aitfen and all the southern congressmen were taken aback, after just one quotation, the snake faction and heir to the royal family stopped, and the other party looked at them coldly.
That kind of gaze seemed to be looking at some kind of fat-headed and big-eared creature.
"madness."
"Hopeless."
"Wait to die."
After speaking, Qin Ran stood up, turned around and walked outside.
