Lord of War

Vol 3 Chapter 348: .The Devil's Lie

"boom!"

  Sean unceremoniously took a piece of parchment paper on the coffee table, because the force was a little too strong, causing the white porcelain tea set on the coffee table to shake a few times.

  Earl Anton's brow jumped.

  But his face did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction.

  Not to mention that Sean is very likely to be a member of the God of War Church, and the psychological suppression of the negotiations between the two sides completely made him feel extremely heavy pressure.

  This is the first time Earl Anton has the idea of ​​wishing not to talk.

  Because, he has never been so embarrassed-no matter what kind of negotiations, he has always had the upper hand. And most of the time, if there is no way to solve the problem with words and words, he can at least solve it with force. But only this time, Earl Anton really felt very helpless. He couldn't fight with the people of the God of War Church, right?

  Even in the eyes of Earl Anton, this might be Sean’s biggest conspiracy: trying to provoke his own anger and make him lose his sense of action.

Although the Church of the God of War will not interfere with the affairs of the nobles of the Northern Principality Federation, it also has a prerequisite: if any noble dared to attack the incumbents of the Church of the God of War, then no matter what the reason, it will be severely punished. And Sean's strength is very low-in the eyes of the upper gold powerhouse, the bronze realm is no different from the apprentice, and both are existences that can be crushed to death with one finger.

  Earl Anton's ambition is not small, and his strength is also not weak. He even feels that he is expected to hit the legend.

  He wouldn’t think it was worth it if he killed his life here because he shot a bronze man like Xiao En here.

  Ambitious people are often very forbearing.

  Sean knows this very well, so before touching the bottom line of Settlement, no matter what kind of behavior Shaun does, Settlement will only choose to forbear.

   "Let's take a look." Shaun pushed the parchment paper in front of Anton, and said lightly. "Where's the roast leg of lamb? Why haven't they come yet?"

Earl Anton resisted the blue veins coming out of his forehead, and while holding up the roll of parchment, he said: "I just ordered the kitchen to prepare. To roast a perfect leg of lamb, time and heat are indispensable. At least three times. , Four hours... But in the meantime, I have already sent someone some appetizers before dinner."

   "Okay." Sean shrugged, "I feel like I can eat a whole sheep."

  Earl Anton said without a smile, "I'll let someone get you a roasted whole lamb."

  Sean saw that Earl Anton’s hand holding the parchment was so hard that the parchment was slightly deformed, so he stopped talking. This kind of small interference is enough to stop, if it continues blindly, it will only cause Anzhang to completely turn his face. Sean has learned diplomacy from Neal, William and Hela for so long, of course it is impossible not to know these things.

at this time. Sean, Shawshank, and Emily are all under the leadership of Earl Anton. Came to a study in the Dark Iron Castle.

  This is a small study, the private study of Earl Anton.

  Private study rooms of nobles have always been used only when they entertain important guests or their own people.

  According to the normal situation, the occasion when Earl Anton meets Emily, the saint, must be in a formal meeting room. It was only because of the privacy and security that Sean requested that he would change to the private study-any aristocrat, as long as he had a little money, would set up silent magic in the private study to prevent outsiders from eavesdropping. Earl Anton is such an ambitious man. Naturally, there will be no exceptions.

  While Earl Anton was reading the parchment, Sean also began to look around this private study.

  The area of ​​this study is not large. The collection of books is not too much, on the contrary, there are a lot of various art collections. It’s just that most of the art collections are just some high imitation fakes, not the real ones-this is not how high Shaun’s art appreciation level is, but the real eyes he has provided him with this appreciation and discrimination. ability. This ability once allowed Sean to resell his art business for a while, but because he couldn't involve too high-level transactions, he couldn't make much money.

  Because the study is not big, Sean quickly finished the observation.

  He discovered that there were two secret escape routes in this study, and one of the entrances and exits showed signs of loosening, apparently it had been activated recently. The other one didn't have any traces of activation, but there was a special textured dark grid near the entrance and exit, which Shaun guessed was probably the key to the secret passage.

  Shaun’s gaze fell back to Earl Anton.

  At this time, Earl Anton was still reading the parchment carefully, which made Sean a little unexpected. Originally in Sean's expectation, when Earl Anton saw the contents of the parchment, he would immediately jump into a rage. At the very least, he would throw the parchment paper on himself and refused directly. Sean even thought of several words to persuade Earl Anton.

  But, Earl Anton read the contents of the parchment so seriously and quietly, which immediately gave Sean a feeling of the powerlessness of Earl Anton punching the cotton when he was at the gate of the castle.

   is indeed an old fox, really calm!

  Sean couldn't help cursing inside, but on the surface he was still calm.

  This kind of silence is also one of the diplomatic tactics. Whoever loses his breath first will lose his dominant position at the next negotiation table. When Sean was at the gate of the castle before, it took a lot of time to successfully establish a psychological advantage and superiority enough to despise Earl Anton, and of course he would not be retaken here. So Settled did not speak, and Sean did not speak either. He simply got up and walked to the bookcase and pulled out a book at will.

  Sean did not expect that the books on the bookcase of the Earl of Anton were all adventure biographies and knight novels.

  Before coming to this world, Sean also liked to read some novels in the Earth Federation. It's just that after coming to this world, he has too many things to be busy, but he has no time to read this kind of novels. It is rare to see at this time, and Sean ignores the dry description of these novels. Now, he even feared that Emily would be bored to pick up a knight novel that Emily had accidentally mentioned before.

  So, these two guys simply used Earl Anton’s private study as their own study. Reading the novel casually.

  Seeing this scene, Shawshank felt like he couldn't bear to look straight. He suddenly regretted entering the study room, so he might as well stand guard outside.

  At first, Earl Anton thought that Sean and Emily were just showing themselves. He still ignored it. Begin reviewing this parchment for the thirty-sixth time.

  The content written on the parchment is actually very simple, or even straightforward.

  This is a magic contract.

  A magic contract that can directly affect the soul.

  As long as both parties to the contract sign their names on it, it will take effect immediately. The content of the contract is that the contract party will become the follower of the contract initiating party. This is a contract with no time limit, and it also specifically states that once the contract is signed, the blood of the contracting party’s descendants will also have to obey the contract. The party initiates the party’s command.

  At this time, the name of the initiator of the contract. Has been filled in. It wasn't Sean's name, but Emily's name. Only the contractor's column was still empty.

  Anton knows that this column is for his signature. As long as he signs his name, he will become a follower of Emily from the moment the contract takes effect. He cannot betray Emily for the rest of his life, and he must obey Emily's command. Even his son and grandson. All the descendants of the family must also obey Emily's instructions-this is a contract equivalent to a deed of sale.

  It’s just that you need to listen to the immediate descendants to settle down. It's just an order from Emily alone. As for other people, even if they belong to the same family as Emily, they don't have the right to order him. But Earl Anton always felt that there were some traps he hadn't discovered, so he had to examine it over and over again, trying to discover the text traps hidden in the contract.

   More than half an hour passed, and Anton still found nothing wrong.

  And Sean and Emily, they seem to have completely forgotten about being hungry, and are still addicted to the world of novels. Earl Anton glanced at the magic clock. It was already two or three o'clock in the morning, so he finally lost his breath.

   "Cough cough." It is still an unnutritious cough opening.

"Wait a minute." Xiao En suddenly stretched out a finger, and then said, "When I finish reading this chapter, I am seeing this mercenary leader taking his hands down to a church to make trouble. It’s the most exciting time, let me finish it first."

  Earl Anton’s veins appeared again.

   But this time, he really didn't wait for too long, and Sean quickly exhaled a foul breath with satisfaction, and then put down the novel.

   "If Lord Shaun likes it, then I will give this to you." Earl Anton held back his anger and said.

   "Then I will be welcome." Sean was really not at all polite, and he received the novel directly from the storage ring.

  Seeing Sean's actions, Earl Anton's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that Sean was just a bronze mirror and already had this kind of space storage props. Earl Anton suddenly felt that he seemed to underestimate the identity and status of this young man. In the Church of God of War, the ability to have space storage devices is really high-ranking existence, and this kind of people can no longer simply rely on strength to measure.

Although Sean didn’t know why Anton suddenly became cautious and serious, it’s not a bad thing for him after all, so he said, “Then, Lord Earl, I don’t know that after reading this magic contract, What do you think?"

   "I just want to know one reason." Anton put the parchment on the table, and then asked in a deep voice, "Why?"

   "Why?" Sean asked back.

"You know what I'm asking." Earl Anton said in a deep voice. After he thought that Sean was a very important person in the God of War Church, his mentality was instantly placed in a very normal position. Poor strength is just a trap view.

"Since Anton's Excellency is so honest, then I might as well be honest." Sean also reduced the joking and playful look on his body. He knew that once an old fox like Anton had such an open and honest attitude, it meant it. The other party really has the intention to cooperate. At this time, playing tricks seems very boring, "The mercenary group under your hand has been solved by us.... Of course, including the one from Amy The young nobleman of the Leah Empire."

   "The Emilia Empire!" Earl Anton was obviously taken aback, "You mean...I've been with people from the Emilia Empire before..."

Sean nodded, and then said: "Master Emily’s identity as a saint is originally a secret, and it will only be revealed after arriving at the Marz Cathedral. I believe Master Anton, you should be aware that you are a **** of war. What kind of sensation will the church cause when it discloses a saint with great potential again.... The Emelian Empire has obviously been infiltrated in the Principality Federation for a long period of time, so the identity of Lord Emily was discovered. Only then did this targeted assassination happen."

  Emily has those big eyes open, her eyes looking at Sean are almost full of admiration.

  This lie is a complete set, and there is no need to type drafts, but no one dares to believe it yet.

  She took a peek at Shawshank and found that Shawshank also had a serious look, and there was even a kind of excitement and excitement of participating in a secret operation.

Devil!

  Emily whispered inwardly.

   Hearing what Shaun said, Anton really showed a grateful look.

"For the sake of the overall situation, I think it is dangerous to keep your private mercenary, so I ordered it to be cleared." Sean said lightly, "At present, the Emilia Empire does not know that their plan of action has failed. I bought a very precious time for Lord Emily....So we decided to come over and negotiate with Lord Anton before the pope’s guards arrived....The Knights of the God of War from the Great Sanctuary of Marz Once they arrive, they will definitely conduct a thorough investigation, and then..."

  Anton couldn't help but shudder. He knew very well what he would end up with once this kind of thing was thoroughly investigated.

  It’s just that, he still doesn’t understand: "Then... Lord Shaun, why are you..."

"Choose you?" Sean laughed, and finally let the old fox bite himself after going around. "It's very simple.... Master Emily's personal strength was very much wasted in this battle, and these wasted losses. It’s still because of the trouble you have caused, Lord Earl, so it’s natural for us to come to you to claim a claim.... However, Lord Emily doesn’t just want this kind of claim, but a batch. Only loyal to her followers.... Within the church, there is not as peaceful as you imagined, Master Settlement. The contradiction between the Pope and the two holy sons has gradually been unable to cover up."

  Anton’s pupils suddenly shrank, and Sean’s last sentence was a secret inside the church.

  Fortunately, he hadn't heard it before, but now that he heard it, he has almost no choice. It is equivalent to saying that Anno is forcing him to choose a team. If he wants to say regret, then he really regrets the sentence he just asked. But thinking about it the other way round, being able to learn this kind of secret is at least a way of proving that Sean trusts him.

  At this moment, the old fox An Dun was obviously dizzy by Sean’s ecstasy soup.

  In other words, even if he knows that there is still a lot to make a fuss about, he doesn't want to ask anything anymore. He was very afraid to ask some secrets that he shouldn't know, so maybe he didn't even know how he died.

   Seeing Anton’s hesitation, Sean decided to add the last fire.

  "The position of earl of the district is really awkward for a talent like you, Lord Anton. With your skill and strength, even if you can't become a grand duke for the time being, this marquis position should be able to easily do it."

   Settled eyes suddenly brightened. (To be continued~^~)
