Chapter 231 Instigation
Joseph is still tracking the God of Gamblers.
Until he saw the illusory figure of an orange-haired woman blocking the way of Henry, the God of Gamblers.
"Madam, what's going on?" Henry had no idea what was going on between him and the lion, and was a little surprised that he was stopped by her.
The lion here smacked his lips, glanced down at her palm, and muttered in a low voice: "It's really hard to use the split shadow when it's far away from the main body..." Then he stepped forward directly and hugged Henry's neck: "You have to follow us
Walk."
Henry didn't know that there was a timeline. He had a magnificent adventure with Vita at the request of the lion; he didn't even know that he asked Vita, and Vita told Abyss that he wanted to join the lion's plan.
Under the strong limbs of the orange-haired woman, she was pulled around: "Huh? No... Miss, we are not familiar with each other."
The lion grinned, she could convince Henry once and she could convince him the second time.
He leaned close to Henry's ear and whispered something.
Henry's struggle suddenly became smaller.
…
The adventurer's knees were almost unsteady.
The few people blocking his retreat didn't seem surprised by his appearance, so this showed that they were superior in skills and had completely predicted his action trajectory. They were more likely to take advantage of his breakout, and they couldn't do anything well in the fanatical crowd.
Disadvantages of mind reading.
But adventurers won't have such useless emotions as regrets. This place is far away from the guests fighting in the depression, and there is room for the use of mind reading.
There are obvious conflicts between the two groups, Vita and Marilyn; Lion, Shadow and Abyss, and the adventurer himself can see into their hearts. Maybe... is there room for instigation?
The adventurer began to read minds and found that everyone's thoughts were obscure, but while they were wary of each other, they still had one thing in common:
Their peripheral vision was still staring at them coldly, alerting them to even the smallest movements.
Provocation becomes extremely difficult, and adventurers' resistance may even become an opportunity for them to share the same hatred.
The bitter taste began to wreak havoc in the adventurer's mouth.
…
Even if the cry in the heart is loud, it cannot affect the surroundings, and in the delicate silence, it is the lion's words that break the current atmosphere: "This is really a good place to discuss things, far away from people, located in the wilderness. As long as we don't say anything,
No one will know this conversation took place."
"Another charade?" Marilyn pinched a finger that she had chewed off before, with a smile on her lips and a sharp look in her eyes: "If you continue to talk like this, I will smash your heads."
The lion's eyes also turned cold, and the temperature of the air between the two ladies seemed to be slightly lowered, and a violent storm was about to occur.
However, although Marilyn is somewhat flammable and explosive, she is not a woman who still thinks of solving everything through muscles at this time.
Vita knew this very well, and remembered the "red face, white face" trick she played with Marilyn a long time ago: she played a violent role, and as long as her attitude softened slightly, the negotiation would become much easier.
And? There happens to be a perfect communication partner here: shadow.
This bearded man is not as mysterious as the stranger Lion, nor as talkative as Abyss. He has also had a long-term friendship with Vita and knows his abilities and details. He has also been beaten by Vita.
? It’s really a good target to bully.
So? Vita shrugged, folded his hands, and hid the cracked door in his arms: "Mr. Shadow, this is really awkward."
"Yes," Shadow shook his head: "There is a 'trustworthy friend' in Abyss's prophecy? I always thought it was talking about our future relationship."
"I hope so," Vita looked sideways, realizing that his chat with Shadow had diluted Marilyn's tense situation. So he took the opportunity to say to the lion: "Miss? Why don't you explain it? What do you mean by what you just said?"
"
"Literally?" The lion opened his arms and swung around leisurely: "No one can hear our conversation here." He added a slightly heavier tone: "Especially our beloved southern governor and the great emperor.
Mr. Huang, is that right?"
"...I remember that you are an investigator, so you are not a cultist." Vita frowned slightly: "And? Only Governor Stephanie has the ability to use city surveillance, and the Emperor does not..."
Vita suddenly stopped speculating, because the Emperor's "omnipresence" seemed to be more advanced than Stephanie's "omniscientness", and it was not a wise move to speculate based on his own stereotypes.
The lion spread his hands and said evasively: "We have different political opinions, so it is normal for us to want to avoid talking to our immediate superiors."
"Just different political opinions?" Marilyn leaned against a tree and hid one of her fingers in the crack of the bark: "I know an old guy. His favorite thing all day long is to read the newspaper "The Emperor and Stephen"
He was scolded for the decree he made, but I didn’t see what happened to him.”
However, at this moment, the shadow on the side suddenly let out a contemptuous sneer: "Hey, hahaha, are you talking about Ridley? It seems that all Ridley can do is curse."
This contemptuous laugh was like an early morning alarm, and the muffled adventurer on the side suddenly failed to realize what he had read in his mind.
All he could do was curse? What could be more intense than this? Vita's thoughts were already spinning, and he subconsciously said: "Do you want to kill the Emperor and Stephanie?"
The lion, Abyss and Shadow were silent together.
Silence means acquiescence, and Vita revealed the purpose of the three of them.
Vita's mouth was a little bitter. He never expected that Shadow and the others would have such thoughts after seeing Stephanie's almost invincible performance in the city.
Marilyn blinked and suddenly realized that the hostility in her heart had subsided a lot because these three madmen were almost talking in their sleep.
After all, the three of them combined were no more annoying to Stephanie than a flying mosquito.
Marilyn smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Yeah, I have no objection. As long as you don't want this notebook, you can do whatever you want."
"Yeah, we just want the Emperor's finger."
Shadow's tone is relaxed and he cannot be a "trustworthy friend". It is also a good development not to become an enemy.
But at this moment, I heard the sound of "pop, pop, pop" applause.
The five people all turned their heads to the adventurer, who was slapping his palms again and again.
Seeing that everyone's attention was drawn to him, the adventurer listened to the voice of the tooth on his back and said word by word: "It's really a good, good result."
He looked at Vita: "You can take your Yangguan Avenue," and then looked at the lion: "You can take that small single-plank dangerous bridge."
"But, there is still a small problem..."
The adventurer put his hand into his arms, took out his notebook, and pointed at its pages. The emperor's fingers were used as bookmarks, and he lay there quietly: "Mr. Kuromon, do you still remember that you just came out of the big forest?"
All kinds of strange phenomena?”
Of course, Vita remembered that it started when a desperado took a sip of water and his neck was hollowed out, and ended when they broke through Bounty Leer's artillery position head-on. Vita did not want to repeat the various strange phenomena that occurred during that period.
Experienced for the second time.
As soon as Vita's thoughts fell, the adventurer continued: "That was caused by the chipped tooth on my back and I accidentally took my finger out of the page of the book. This finger is actually an insurance for the notebook."
He spread out the notebook, revealing the page where his fingers were, and placed it on the ground. He took two steps back with heartache: "You want to take it, I have no objection. But the person holding the notebook may have to endure the pain all the way."
There are endless weird things happening, it’s really good.”
All five people looked at the book together.
silence.
Until the lion finally said: "Won't you come and kill the Emperor with us?"
"no thank you."
"oh."
There was another long silence.
Until the wind blew gently and ruffled the pages of the notebook.
Vita suddenly threw out the small door of the picture frame that he had connected to the darkness. Marilyn leaned forward and let the fingers in the tree trunk explode into splatters of sawdust.
