In the mansion of Archduke Warren.

There was a dead silence in the room. The subordinates did not dare to speak when they looked at the dark face of their Grand Duke. They were afraid that if they did not say a word correctly, they would be cut into pieces and thrown into the sea. Anyway, the house is located on the sea, and throwing it away is environmentally friendly and quick.

Archduke Warren knew that something was going to happen this time. Almost all of his strongholds had been opened. It was only a matter of time before the contents inside were sorted out and used against him.

Who did it?

Fuchir? No, that woman doesn't have such courage. His Majesty the Emperor? No, the Emperor has been basically a mascot since the day the Doli Alliance was founded, and the Parliament will not allow him to take power. Some old guy in the council? This is possible...but why are they attacking themselves at this time?

Actually... there is another candidate.

This level of understanding of herself, this timing, this ruthless style - Sharona.

But even if Sharonna is not dead now, she should be too injured to get out of bed. How can she still have the strength to deal with him?

Moreover, as far as he knew, Sharona had never been close to the Athanasi people. Not only Sharonna, but no politician on the mainland would like the Athanasi people.

It's not that no one has tried to take advantage of them, but each time the results have been mixed, with even more bad results.

The Athanasi are too uncontrollable, and their position has always been wavering. One second they were on your side, and the next second they turned and defected to your opponent. Therefore, even if you want to use their power, you usually let the Athanasi people do some peripheral work, patrolling or doing chores, and no one will let them enter their core circle.

How dare Sharonna use the Athanasi to complete such an important task? What's even more strange is that the Athanasius actually completed it without any mistakes.

Or, there is someone else hiding behind the scenes...

a guy who has a way to control the Athanassi.

But the matter is irreversible, and there is no point in thinking about it. Sharona will definitely take the opportunity to make a big fuss.

Archduke Warren made a decision in his heart, and he spoke in a deep voice: "Contact our people, speed up the persuasion of other congressmen, and it doesn't matter if you increase the leverage. I will directly vote on the proposal early tomorrow morning, and then directly send troops to attack the second Yihai!"

Before Sharona got up from the hospital bed.

This war has a different meaning to him. It is no longer just about plundering profits. He needs this external war to pass on the crisis, gain more rights, and improve his reputation, and then he can continue to work with Sharon. As long as Na fights, she will not be overthrown by the evidence in her hand.

"Yes, Your Excellency." The subordinates replied in unison, and then quickly disappeared into the room.

·

the next day.

Archduke Warren, who had not slept all night, led his subordinates into the parliament hall.

After a night of emergency contact, their personnel have been put in place, and some centrists have made it clear that they will support them. Although there are still some that are unclear, Archduke Warren has already won the support of half of the people, and there is no need for this part. So valued.

Time passed little by little, and it was almost time for the morning meeting.

Archduke Warren looked around the parliament hall and saw no sign of Sharona, not even Fusir.

He couldn't help but sneer, so what if Sharona got the evidence? She couldn't sort it out completely in one night, and according to the killers' reports, Sharonna was seriously injured, and she didn't dare to call a doctor or a white magician in a big way. In such a short time, her injuries could not be cured at all.

Archduke Warren was about to stand up and be the first to go up and put forward his proposal. He didn't want to wait another minute. Time was a variable. The sooner, the better everything would be for him.

Just then, the door to the parliament hall opened.

Everyone couldn't help but look in the direction of the door, but were surprised to see Duke Sharona moving freely. Wearing the ducal attire, she stepped into the door of the parliament hall with elegant steps. There was no reluctance in her movements, her face was rosy, and her eyes seemed to be shining with stars. There was no sense of disobedience like struggling to hold on after a serious injury.

Those present were all powerful senior officials of the Dolly Alliance. Of course, they knew very well what had happened recently, and even who did it. They just had to pretend to be confused sometimes. But at this moment, the person who was rumored to be on the line of life and death actually appeared intact. How could it not be shocking? !

Facing the widened eyes of everyone, Duke Sharona walked towards Archduke Warren with a smile.

Just when Archduke Warren thought she would say something to ridicule him, he saw Duke Sharona just glance at him, and then go straight to the podium of the parliament.

not good!

Archduke Warren instantly understood what this guy wanted to do, and he quickly said: "Everyone, I have a proposal-"

At this time, Duke Sharona had already walked quickly to the podium, the smile on her face did not change, He opened his mouth and said, "It just so happens that I also have a proposal."

Archduke Warren suppressed his anger

and said, "Sharonna!" Duke Sharona's tone was gentle. She looked around: "I recently reached an agreement with a special guest. An intention to cooperate. I can guarantee that this cooperation will be a great thing for everyone. Why don't you listen to me first?"

Hearing this, everyone in the audience had different expressions. Duke Sharona seemed to be confident today. She should know very well what Archduke Warren's proposal will be, and she is still so confident. Is there really any new change?

In an instant, the atmosphere in the parliament became a little more subtle.

A congressman stood up and said with a smile: "Since His Excellency the Duke came to the stage first, according to the rules, she should be the first to propose the proposal."

This statement aroused the agreement of many people. Duke Warren glanced at it and basically said They were from Sharona's side, but among them there were several centrists who had been ambiguous about him before, and now they actually expressed their opinions. Something must have happened in private.

After all, it was just a sequence of speeches, and Archduke Warren couldn't hold on to it, so he could only sit down for the time being.

But when he looked at Sharona's smile, he felt increasingly uneasy, as if he was standing next to an abyss and Sharona was approaching him step by step with a sharp dagger.

Duke Sharona spoke: "I discussed with the Secretary of Hesse, and Hesse will reach a purchase agreement with the Doli Alliance in the next development."

As soon as these words came out, the councilors below couldn't help but be stunned.

Hesse? That Hesse that no one has been able to get in for hundreds of years? ? ?

Since the establishment of the Doli Alliance, they have opened trade routes almost all over the continent, including the dangerous Borderlands, where their forces have penetrated.

But only in Hesse, it is like a soil where business cannot take root. After hundreds of years, it is still possible to obtain some materials quietly through adventurers, and it is even more difficult to even think about selling things there. Even if the trade zone has been opened recently, it is still mainly for personal transactions, which cannot satisfy the appetite of bosses of their level.

Now, Hesse actually wants to cooperate directly with the Dolly Alliance? ! Still such a big deal!

There are a lot of things needed to build a region. If a purchase agreement is reached, there will be many enviable benefits! Many people were already moved, and everyone in the audience was whispering.

As for the fear of the undead...

In the face of the temptation of money, it seems not so important.

Duke Sharona was very satisfied with their response. She added: "In addition, Hesse's trade area is also preparing for the second phase of planning. The secretary promised to arrange an exclusive area for the Dori Alliance in it. There will be tax incentives."

As for who is qualified to enter the exclusive area, Duke Sharona knows it without telling everyone. Of course, she will give priority to her own people.

At this moment, many centrists have begun to think about how to get closer to Duke Sharona. There were also some people who had sworn that they would support Archduke Warren until early in the morning. At this time, their eyes began to wander, and it was obvious that they had Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts.

As for Archduke Warren's proposal?

War is a time-consuming and labor-intensive thing that requires careful consideration. Moreover, our army is used to defend the country, how can it be used to fight everywhere? Moreover, the Yuan Clan was also a former ally of the Xiyue Clan. How could we be so unkind?

The Grand Duke of Warren's heart sank. He observed the expressions of the people around him. Those on Sharonna's side were obviously proud. Most of the centrists were shaken, including those who had previously swung to his side.

But the most irritating thing is that the expressions of some people who originally belonged to Grand Duke Warren became ambiguous at this time, and they obviously had other plans!

Duke Sharona looked at everyone and raised her lips. It seemed that there was no need to continue arguing about the attitude that the Yuan Clan should take. Now these people have no intention of starting a war. All they are thinking about is how to catch up on the trade with Hesse. Naturally, they will no longer oppose her proposal. Most of them look at her with eager eyes. , full of expectations.

Seeing that the time had come, Duke Sharona clapped her hands in the air to signal everyone to be quiet.

After the hall became quiet again, she finally returned her gaze to Archduke Warren and threw the most fatal blow: "Excuse me, Your Excellency, Archduke Warren, in the Dolly Alliance, privately cultivate Xiyue tribe hybrids and use them as slaves." What kind of crime is trafficking?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar, causing even more waves than the previous cooperation with Hesse.

They can work as profiteers all over the continent, and they can attack the Yuan clan without conscience, but they are raised and sold as slaves. This is the heaviest, most humiliating, and most unforgettable pain of the Xiyue clan for thousands of years, and it is also the pain of every Xiyue clan. The bottom line that the clan will never tolerate, even the humans present know this.

Now, there is actually a Xiyue clan who dares to touch this bottom line!

Archduke Warren's face instantly turned pale. He watched numbly as Duke Sharona on the stage enumerated evidence of his crimes one by one. It felt like every word just passed by his ears, but not a word entered his mind.

It's over, he has no chance at all.

Why didn't Sharonna die? Why is she moving so fast?

It turns out... Hessen was helping her behind the scenes, but why did the clerk help Sharona?

Obviously he almost won, just a little bit, but everything was destroyed in the hands of Hesse's secretary. Maybe he shouldn't be here today, he should just defect to the Borderlands...

·

At this time, Xiao Zhi was taking Teague home to pack his things.

Duke Sharona was a very willing collaborator. In order to show her sincerity in cooperation, she handed over the Barry Requiem Stone to Xiao Zhi without hesitation.

The Barry Requiem Stone looked dark and had many bumps on its surface. It was so ordinary that it was hard to believe. But the moment he took it, Xiao Zhi seemed to hear the wails of countless dead souls. The sound was extremely sad, as if it could pass through directly. It penetrates the human soul. Fortunately, there is a white box outside. As long as the box is covered, this effect can be completely isolated. Thinking about it, this box alone is worth a lot of money.

Teague has a lot of real estate in Hilaris, and he won't be able to sell it for a while, so he can only keep it for now. Anyway, now that Hesse has contacts with the Dolly Alliance, he is not worried that his house will be taken away because he has become an undead. .

He handed over the 10 million that Xiao Zhi kept with him to Xiao Zhi.

Xiao Zhi said to him: "If you have anything you can't bear to part with, just take it with you. It won't be so easy to come back in the future."

Even if the Dolly Alliance later cooperated with Hesse, the mainland residents' fear of the undead was not temporary. It would be eliminated. Teague was a scumbag, and Xiao Zhi didn't dare to let him come back to see him alone.

Teague searched around the room and finally only took away a necklace hidden in a secret compartment under the bed.

The necklace looks to be old, with a gorgeous and ancient style, with a delicate pectin flower carved on it and surrounded by gemstones as embellishments.

Xiao Zhi was a little confused: "Aren't you going to take the money with you?"

He thought that Teague's obsession with money was enough to overcome the barrier between life and death.

Teague smiled helplessly: "I have no money, and all the money I earned before has been spent. Buying gifts for ladies is very expensive. It must not only be valuable, but also be topical, and it is best to be unique. , allowing them to show off as much as they want, and the cost every time is not small."

He looked at his home with nothing of value, with a bit of self-deprecation in his tone: "I gave most of the proceeds this time to Mrs. Irina. The other gifts turned into custom-made dresses, so I had the opportunity to follow her into Duke Sharona's party. I originally wanted to get recommendations from several dignitaries, but who knew... this would kill me. ..."

Teague gently touched the necklace in his hand: "This is the emblem of my family. We were once a powerful family in the parliament. Unfortunately, it has been in decline for almost a hundred years. I thought I could make it happen again. It seems that there is no chance to shine in the Dolly League."

Xiao Zhi comforted him: "After arriving in Hesse, you can hang it in your office and shine as much as you want. People will come to you when the time comes. Everyone can see it."

Teague said with a surprised smile: "Is this okay... That's in the office. According to the rules, family emblems cannot occupy the work area."

Xiao Zhi: "It's okay, the undead clan. Part of me doesn't understand what this is, and besides, you can't reproduce the family anyway, just treat it as a souvenir."

Teague: "..."

I feel like my heart hurts, like it's the first time someone opened it. It hurts just as much when the hole is big.

After cleaning up, Xiao Zhi threw a teleportation stone from the trading area to Teague. Before teleporting, he specifically told Teague not to reveal what they had done in the past few days.

Teague expressed his understanding. After all, it was the secret of the big guys.

·

At this time, several players huddled on the street corner of Hyrules, observing the situation around them, ready to run away if the situation went bad, but the surroundings were always quiet, which made them feel a little confused.

"I thought I would be wanted?"

"Yeah, I participated in Qianye Lan's rebellion before, and ended up being imprisoned for several days. I thought it would be the same this time, but why are you okay?"

"You guys Do you know what this means?"

"What?"

"It means that we are in the right position this time! You think that if Qianye Lan's rebellion succeeds, the participants will definitely not be arrested, right? We will only be caught if we lose the mission. If they win, we will be fine." "You are so smart!"

" Since everything is fine, how about a treat? !" ·







Back in Hesse, Xiao Zhi first informed Senior Brother Wei Di that he could withdraw, and then the two of them exchanged information on the recent situation.

After that, he went to the Government Affairs Center first and temporarily handed Teague over to Milton, saying that he was a recently discovered gifted undead.

Teague had no previous political experience and did not understand the situation in Hesse. He asked him to follow the experienced Milton first, so that he could learn while adapting to the customs of Hesse. He could also live in Hesse for a hundred years. Milton's science popularizes the recent situation on the mainland and the situation of the Dolly League.

Milton was also happy to finally have help.

By the way, he handed Milton the list of players who had contributed to the hidden mission before, and then told him about creating the Long Night Badge within three days. Xiao Zhi hurriedly left the trade area.

The closer he got to the Bone Palace, the more nervous Xiao Zhi felt. After all the trouble, he finally got the Barry Requiem Stone!

The Bone Palace was still the same as before. Xiao Zhi quietly avoided the others and came to the Bone Palace. He greeted Lance who was guarding the door: "Lance."

From this look and tone, Lance judged that this was Xiao Zhi himself. Seeing that the secretary himself was back, he couldn't hide his excitement: "Did you get it?"

Xiao Zhi nodded: "Well, how about Eugene."

Lance said: "Fortunately, as long as you don't look for him, he looks like It's quite easy."

Xiao Zhi found Eugene under the leadership of Lance.

Eugene's head was still covered with a paper bag, but it had changed from the green onion-flavored Chiba dew at the time to the sour dina sap flavor. But this did not affect his movements. Eugene seemed much more relaxed than the first day he came. I wonder if it was because the Palace of Bones was always empty, which made Eugene, who had a phobia of showing his face, feel relaxed.

The three then went to the room where Frost was.

Frost was still lying quietly. The bed was surrounded by a magic circle that was emitting a milky white halo. There were wisps of white mist inside the magic circle that integrated into his body, helping him resist the evil in his mind. Erosion of energy.

Xiao Zhi handed the box containing the Barry Requiem Stone to Eugene. After Eugene got it, he praised the Barry Requiem Stone inside: "Well, this appearance and texture are really perfect..."

As he said , he went to arrange the magic circle with great interest.

This time the formation is much more complicated than the previous one, with many more structures that make people feel dazzled. Eugene is indeed a top-notch white magician. He draws the magic circle in a slow and steady manner without any hesitation.

Following his movements, Xiao Zhi could feel the abundant energy overflowing from the magic circle in front of him.

After the formation was completed, the entire formation was emitting a faint light, not the milky white seen before, but gray with a hint of ominous death. But for the undead, this kind of energy is far more comfortable than the white energy coming from the natural environment.

Eugene breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh... The power of Barry's Requiem Stone and Daria's Death Qi Crystal will help him dispel that energy and make the memory fragments less disruptive to him. After he realizes the dream he is in, he He can wake up."

Xiao Zhi looked at the unconscious Frost and asked, "How long will it take?"

Eugene estimated: "According to his physique, it will probably take less than half a day -"

His voice was still. Before it fell, Frost's originally gentle brows suddenly frowned, as if he felt very painful. Then, a painful groan appeared in his mouth, as if he was experiencing some painful torture.

Xiao Zhi looked at Eugene and held down the hand he wanted to greet directly. He told himself to be a patient family member with a peaceful mind and not to make trouble with the doctor.

He tried to keep his tone calm: "Mr. Eugene, could you please explain me?"

Although the clerk's tone sounded calm, Eugene still felt the vague murderous aura in the air.

Eugene felt a chill on his back, and he quickly reached out to check the patient's condition.

After a while.

Eugene's tone was a little cautious: "Well... the power of this Barry Requiem Stone is relatively strong, which caused some unnecessary effects..."

Xiao Zhi raised his eyebrows under the white gauze slightly: "So?"

Eugene: "The power of Barry's Requiem Stone broke through the magic circle he originally carried... just a little bit. The magic circle seemed to be a seal, sealing... many memories..."

Xiao Zhi clenched his fists: " Talk about the conclusion."

Eugene thought about how to express it tactfully for a while, but found that he couldn't express it tactfully, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "There are more memory fragments interfering with him, and it becomes more difficult to get rid of it..."

Xiao Zhi: "..."

Suddenly he wanted to apologize to Grand Duke Warren, and now he understood Grand Duke Warren's mood at that time. Although I knew it was the uncertain factor behind the magic circle, I still wanted to hit someone...

Even Lance next to him exuded murderous aura.

The experience of escaping from death madly guided Eugene, say something quickly, otherwise you will really have to officially join the undead! ! ! ! !

At the critical moment, an idea flashed in Eugene's mind: "How about you go in and help him?"

Xiao Zhi turned to him: "Can he get in inside his head?"

Eugene said: "But, yes... you can put your brain in Let go and enter a meditative state, and then I will connect the energy of the magic circle to your body. You can use the power of the magic circle to enter his dream, but you cannot use any magic in the dream and you will lose your existing power. , you will feel like an ordinary person."

Xiao Zhi did not hesitate: "Okay, what to do after entering?"

Eugene said: "You have to follow the energy of the magic circle. Remember, you must follow the energy. Otherwise, you will be lost. Then you need to find his consciousness in the dream, and then try to bring his consciousness to the energy center of the magic circle, wake him up, and make him realize that this is a dream. But dreams are very dangerous, if you two. If you get lost together, you will never wake up again."

Xiao Zhi asked: "Will my entry have a bad impact on him?"

Eugene spread his hands: "It depends on which side you are helping... "

What if this clerk is actually an undercover agent?

Xiao Zhi: "..."

Let's beat this guy up.
