Game of Thrones: Royal Game

157 Genius
"And during one of their operations for the Howcott family, that person sold their clues to the player Ender Poole who was working under the hostile Volantis party at the time.

Kenny Taime's gang was then mortally wounded during the night's operation, killing himself and one of its allies instantly. "Ian paused, and thoughtfully helped Celia wipe the cold sweat overflowing from her forehead, and then continued,

"This incident was both a good thing and a bad thing for the last little blackie who was not in the gang at the time but had already cleared his identity in another place.

The advantage is that she enjoys the contribution of her allies in vain without having to do anything in return, and she no longer has to worry about the internal conflict between two allies who know her details in the future.

The downside is that her identity does not allow her to create a career alone in the patriarchal society of Ice and Fire, so she must find a new sword.

And soon, she found a very suitable candidate. But the problem was that she didn't have a foundation of trust with this person, and she didn't dare to seek an alliance with him rashly, so she needed to find other ways to achieve her goal.

This little blackie is really smart, and she quickly found a way... Guess what? "

Celia couldn't even smirk now, and there was only fear in her eyes.

"Then." Seeing that she was silent, Ian spoke again.

"Enough!" Celia screamed, stretched out her hands and tried to push Ian away, but was pushed back to the table abruptly again.

"Why, did you understand this time?" Ian smiled.

Only then did Celia realize her gaffe, and she could only stiffen her neck and say, "I'm just fed up with your inexplicable stories. I'm Prince Hazan's sister! You can't do this to me."

"Are you not convinced? Are you still taking chances, thinking that I am not sure about these things? Or I dare not kill you." Ian leaned down again, and his nose was almost on the tip of her nose.

"I only." Celia wanted to argue, but seeing the sudden fierceness in Ian's eyes, she trembled and closed her mouth again.

"I just..." She paused for a long time before speaking again, with a bleak smile, "I just don't understand, how could someone say such vicious words at such a time."

"You put the medicine in the incense burner, you can't blame me for that," Ian didn't stop, "I didn't have this part in my plan."

"I just want to marry you." Celia showed a pitiful expression, and reached out to touch Ian's face, but was gently patted away by Ian.

That's why the goddamn system task will determine that you will not pose a danger to me!Ian complained.

"That's right, if you want to marry me, Prince Hazan, you are eager to reach a more stable alliance with me, so you hit it off and let him pretend that you are his sister, so that both of your goals can be achieved.

At the same time, it almost completely eliminates the suspicion that you are a player.

This way you can marry me as a native and keep your place by my side forever as long as my covenant with Hazan lasts, share my title, see my plans, use my influence .

The point is, sleep in my bed and choose to backstab me whenever you see fit. Which man in the world can escape his own wife's assassination? "At the end, Ian almost roared out.

"Because there is no covenant between us, you will not be bound by the alliance mechanism. Not only will you not lose one point for killing me, but you will also directly inherit all my points, system resources, and as my wife. Inherit all the power I have built," Ian pinched Celia's chin with such force that he almost crushed it, but finally said, "You are a fucking genius."

What kind of sixth child can come up with such a plan?

Indeed, forming an alliance with male and female players, and taking advantage of female players’ face pinching advantages and control over the original work to cling to a selected target in the original work in order to achieve rapid development is a kind of social structure in ice and fire. A textbook-style routine.

If Ian's two promised allies hadn't retired from the race, Ian would have followed the same path.

But change your identity to marry a certain player, and then wait to harvest the other party?When Ian first deduced Celia's purpose, it seemed as if he had opened the door to a new world.

"As for the last item, I never thought about it," Celia certainly couldn't admit that kind of thing. "I just want to get along with you for a while and build trust before finding an alliance with you."

"You can say whatever you want about the future that is no longer verifiable." Although Ian didn't believe it, he let go of her and walked away from her.

Celia finally had a chance to breathe. She first coughed violently, and then panted heavily.

"What are you going to do with me? No," she asked, and the next moment she shook her head again, "You won't deal with me, if you came to kill me, you wouldn't waste your time talking to me so much, at least You don't come to me today and tell me you've discovered the truth.

After I marry you, you have countless ways to kill me. As you said, we have no alliance, so the system will neither protect you nor me.

By that time, I, whose identity has been exposed, will be nothing more than a clown in your eyes. You are a knife, and I am a fish.

So, you're telling me this now because I'm still useful to you, right?You need me to do something that only I can do for you right now? "

"You scare me, my dear, maybe it's not a good thing to be too smart sometimes." Ian smacked his lips.

"The time for me to scare you is long gone. Now it's me who should be afraid, and as a player who can reach the top 30, you want me to play a little white flower for you? Yes, I know most Men like that one," Celia showed a smile uglier than crying,

"But you are different. I believe that if you act any more stupidly and make you feel that I can't bring you any value, you will break my neck the next moment."

"Tell me, what do you need from me?" she continued, "And I'm curious, what means are you going to use to ensure my loyalty?"

"The alliance, of course, is the way you surrender to me." Ian said.

Celia was taken aback.

Ian actually considered this matter for a long time, and finally made this decision mainly based on three reasons.

First, in his next plan, Celia will play an indispensable role, and Celia needs to move freely, so he must let Celia take the initiative to help him.

Second, Celia is smart enough. Even from the most critical point of view, she has the qualifications to be her own ally. To be honest, Ian has been troubled by the problem of not having any allies for too long since entering Pentos.

At this stage of the game, the enemies he faces are almost all player alliances, and the opponents behind must be more powerful than each other.If he doesn't look for allies, his subsequent important plans can only be completed by those NPCs who don't fully understand his intentions, which will be too much restricted.

Third, he and Celia have no other allies now, and he can accept the final benefits of the alliance between the two.

Fourth, and most importantly, the covenant he gave to Celia is a condition that he be a subject. Unlike when he was still at the Crossroads Inn, at this stage, which player doesn't have a few points?No one can accept the price of deducting all the points when the submissive backstabs.

And as time progresses, this price will become heavier and heavier, and the alliance between players will become more and more stable.

Basically, only when the victory condition is finally met - when some players disagree to declare victory, there is the possibility of another infighting. After all, at that time, the automatic shattering of the alliance is free.

"If I can't give you a guarantee that I won't kill you when I run out," Ian continued, "I'm afraid a person like you won't work for me at ease, right? So I allow you to kneel down and surrender to me." .

You should be very clear that if you betray me, you will be deducted all points according to the alliance mechanism. Now that the number of players is not less than 30, clearing the points means that you will be assassinated by the Faceless at the end of the month, and you will definitely die.

And I will also be constrained by the alliance mechanism, you know I have a lot of points, and I can't afford the loss of backstabbing you. "

"Deal." Celia agreed without hesitation. She knew how restrictive the alliance mechanism was to players like Ian who were eligible to compete for points rewards.

This is indeed enough to be a reassurance.

Immediately, the two turned on the scanning of the alliance function in the system, and then formed an alliance face to face.

Immediately afterwards, an email was sent to the mailboxes of the two.

[The alliance relationship between player 6 and player 37 has been reached
Status 6: Allies

Status No. 37: Submissive]

At the same time, the alliance toolbar on Ian's system interface has also changed due to the alliance being achieved, and two sub-toolbars appeared [Alliance Mission] and [Resource Sharing].

"Why are you looking at me like that? We've already formed an alliance, you can't force me to share resources with you, otherwise it will be counted as a backstab." Celia's momentum weakened a bit after she finished speaking, "Of course, if If you need it, it’s not impossible to give it to you. As my sincerity.”

"No." Ian didn't intend to be so greedy at the beginning, "What I want to say is that we can start discussing the next plan. Now, tell me everything you know about the Hazan plan."

"Perhaps, you can tell me how you found out the truth first? Let me know where the little blackie showed his chicken feet." Perhaps it was because the alliance mechanism gave Celia a sense of security, she said half-jokingly .
