Chapter 34: The Principality’s New Mission

Faced with the repeated entanglements of hundreds of nobles, He Taiping still kept smiling, but he was already complaining. Fortunately, the unlucky Drizzt and Alex happened to pass by at this time. The unfaithful man immediately pointed and shouted: "Everyone, aren't you planning to visit the male lead and the ending song singer?"

After a moment of shock, the crowd that was surrounded by He Taiping suddenly rushed away, wrapping the dark elves and the tauren like a swarm of bees. Within just a few seconds, these two unlucky dark creatures were pushed to the corner and began to undergo endless interrogation. Judging from the expressions of some noble ladies who tried it out, they seemed very interested in completing their unfinished love career instead of Juliet...

"Well, maybe I should consider cultivating a few superstars of the emperor?" Looking at this scene, He Taiping's inspiration immediately jumped out again. But then, a palm gently fell on his shoulder, and then Andre's voice sounded: "Dear He, how about we drink in another place? In fact, a well-informed adult was planning to meet you..."

A quarter of an hour later, the two had taken advantage of the chaos at the scene and quietly evacuated. In a servant room south of the palace, they met the Prime Minister who was taking a nap. Andrei laughed dryly, and before Lawrence got up, he flashed out of the room. He Taiping sat down directly at the table, and looked at the old man with interest. His face was a little disappointed because of Andrei's departure.

"Meow, these two guys must have a leg!" He Taiping stroked his chin, but he secretly concluded in his heart. At the same time, Lawrence returned to normal after a moment of loss of composure. He Taiping first poured a cup of coffee, and then said lightly: "Mr. He, I have to protest your bias. Compared to the beauty salon, I am afraid that the item you show tonight is the real big business."

"Please rest assured, if I want to promote film and television dramas, I cannot do without your help." He Taiping took a sip of coffee and smiled, "Without your privilege, this business will be difficult to spread to all parts of Campas and even the entire Quintas. However, judging from the current situation, my new invention still needs to be improved, and it may not be suitable for large-scale promotion for the time being."

Lawrence agreed and pointed to the brightly lit garden outside the window and said, "Then what do you plan to deal with this crystal ball? Is it not going to take it back!"

"Of course not! If you don't mind, I would like to entrust it to Princess Isabel and ask her to perform continuous screenings in Constantine." He Taiping observed Lawrence's face and suggested cautiously: "As a neutral, I cannot ignore cooperation with the other party. Please be sure to understand this."

Lawrence smiled and waved his hand to let go of this topic. Even if Isabel could earn hundreds of thousands of gold coins from this, it would not pose a threat to him. After a moment of silence, he approached the topic and said, "Then, let's talk about the serious matter! Mr. He, while blessing you with a smooth journey, the principality - please note that it is the principality, not me - has an important task to hand over to you. Only by completing this task can you officially pass the test of the city lord."

He Taiping was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect that there would be something else. Looking at his slightly surprised expression, Lawrence seemed to feel a little satisfied. After admiring for a few minutes, he continued: "I think you should have heard of Siad's incident! That Duke of Shuda is not an easy person to deal with."

The term Siad fell gently into the air, and suddenly covered He Taiping's forehead with a layer of dark clouds. After a moment of silence, he spoke in a deep voice: "To be honest, no one wants a beast to live next to his home. But from your tone, it seems that I am not the only one who is troubled by Siad?"

"That's right, because the Duke of Shuda has a dream, he seems not only satisfied with being a lord." Lawrence rubbed the coffee cup, his expression gradually became gloomy and murderous. "So we have to try to solve this problem and solve it as soon as possible. Mr. He, your territory is very close to him, so this matter..."

"Eh, you won't plan to let me send troops directly!" He Taiping rolled his eyes half-jokingly and sighed helplessly, "Although I'm not willing to admit it, I can't handle the Duke in terms of military strength or material reserves. If I can move, I'm even willing to move the entire Paradise City."

"Please rest assured, I don't plan to sacrifice a future ally." Lawrence turned the jade ring on his ring finger and smiled, "In fact, I just hope you can help me investigate one thing-the reason I ask for your help is because of your unique identity as the lord of the dungeon..."

He Taiping raised his head slightly and signaled the other party to continue. Lawrence took a sip of coffee and cheered up and said, "Based on the information I have received in the past few months, a messenger of the undead has recently entered Siad and has had many contacts with Duke Shuda. My spies have risked their lives to follow these undeads and have seen them enter the city of the undead in the Duchy of Mufat... Do you know what this means?"

"City of the Dead?" He Taiping was stunned for a moment, and then remembered the rumors he had heard when he first arrived in this world. In the current Continent of Quintas, the more famous dungeons in addition to the Dark Night Dungeon he led, also include the City of War ruled by the Black Warriors and the City of the Dead controlled by the Dead. In the relatively weak City of the Dead, it is said that the one who holds the highest power is a necromancer - interestingly, his name is the same name as Mu...

"Master Mu? Your news is too behind!" Lawrence shook his head and frowned slightly, "That Master Mu was assassinated half a year ago. Now the one who controls the City of the Undead is his former deputy - I'm sorry, we know nothing about this character, but judging from his quick way to quell the chaos, it is obviously not a simple character."

"I'm not interested in this. What I care about is what you plan to let me do?" He Taiping sighed softly, and suddenly his expression changed drastically, as if he thought of something extremely terrible, "Damn it, you won't plan to let me contact these undeads and inquire about their alliance with Siad!"

"Reply!" Lawrence snapped his fingers and showed a faint smile. "Although the ruler of the Undead City is the Undead, since it is a dungeon, there must be other races. So I think that with your advantage, you can enter the Undead City smoothly and find out some useful information."

"Are you kidding? I reject this proposal!" He Taiping was stunned for a while, and suddenly shook his head like a rattle. Since his previous life, he has hated skeleton ghosts. When he thought of living with a lot of bones, it was even more terrifying than dating Sister Furong...

"I suggest you accept this proposal. If Siad continues to become stronger, Duke Shuda's war spear will be aimed at Falle." Lawrence seemed not surprised by his rejection, but continued to lobby, "In contrast, if you can complete this task for the Principality, I will appoint Link as the official lord of Monyata and make him your retainer."

This practice is equivalent to rewarding Monyata to He Taiping, so even if he rejects it, he can't help but feel slightly moved when he hears this condition. Lawrence looked at his expression and continued: "In fact, you won't be in too much danger. I just want to know why the City of the Undead cooperates with Siad thousands of miles away, and how they will cooperate."

"Who really just needs to know this?" He Taiping stroked his chin and showed a thoughtful look. He had to admit that everything Lawrence said was reasonable and well-behaved for Folly, even if it was not for the sake of reward, he should have taken a risk for Folly. And most importantly, there seemed to be a voice repeating in his mind, asking him to go to the Undead City. Although he didn't quite understand what this meant, since that's the case...

"Okay, I accept this mission!" After a long silence, He Taiping hesitated and determined his plan, "But I declare in advance that if the secret is discovered by those skeletons, I will choose to evacuate as soon as possible, and you cannot blame me for this!"

"Of course, I won't take this as an opportunity to attack you." Lawrence slowly stood up, reached out to shake him, and smiled, "Also, if you need any help, you can notify me before leaving Constantine."
