510. Negotiations and scams (3k)(1/2)
Helheim.
The black mist roared around the girls, tearing at the air with its claws and fangs, and seemed to rush towards the survivors at any time.
Enid stood between them.
Nelly stood directly opposite her:
"We are finally finalizing our plans."
Enid said:
"I don't think there's anything wrong, and even if there were, inspections wouldn't help us."
Nelly said:
"Just make sure we don't have any accidents. It won't take long."
Enid made no further objections.
Nelly feels like she probably knows how to negotiate with this guy now:
"Wait a minute, you go to negotiate with Vortigern. Don't reveal too many conditions first. At the same time, remember that you must never give your body away casually. Only by ensuring that you possess your own body will you have the power to negotiate.
, if you promised reward in advance, then from Vortigern's point of view, it is only a matter of time before he gets it, and we don't have time.
"On the contrary, he is a very patient bad guy."
Nelly emphasized this matter to Enid several times just to not let her hand over her body. Although Enid had already made a decision to exchange herself for the enemy's defeat, Nelly had no intention of waiting.
Sacrificing himself to her.
This is not a war for her alone. She will not watch Enid hand over her body. Although she knows that this is a bit arrogant, but yes, she intends to deceive Vortigern.
She will give nothing to this devil, and at the same time, she also needs Vortigern's help.
Even if she may not succeed, Enid has made up her mind and can only try her best.
Enid looked at the two girls in front of her and nodded.
Veronica's soul is standing next to Nellie now. She must be here, otherwise no one can take them back. At the same time, Nellie asked Peloris to wait on the ground. In this case, she cannot help
to any busy...
At the same time, Nelly does not trust Peloris as much as she shows.
Of course she wanted to trust this girl, but sometimes, a wrong trust could destroy countless lives, and Nelly was not going to take the risk.
And if there is any emergency on the ground, Peloris and the living Veronica can also handle it.
After looking firmly at each other, Enid closed her eyes and called that name in her heart.
The humble king Futigeng.
Darkness overwhelmed her.
Exactly the same as the last time we met.
Time slowed down, her clear consciousness faded, and her false pretense was exposed. She was facing this evil and powerful king with her most essential heart.
Unlike last time, she is now inviting Vortigern as her guest.
So King Bei came as invited.
A man lifted the black curtain and walked into her inner world.
He has a handsome appearance, his eyes are so deep that no one can guess what mystery his owner is thinking about, his eyebrows are sharp? His nose is high, and there is a charming smile on his face that never seems to disappear. He exudes the temperament of a wise king from beginning to end.
.
He walked in.
Different from the "Vortigern" that his brain imagined out of thin air, the man in front of him was not violent or aggressive. He looked just like that respectable elder.
Vortigern asked:
"Are you going to agree? Hand over your body? I will do it for you? Oh..."
He let out an exclamation of appreciation.
King Bei continued:
"It seems that you have thought about some things clearly, and your resentment is not so big anymore, which is good? Only when you truly realize what you want? You are your true self.
"Otherwise, the guy struggling with the mixture of emotions such as hatred, anger? Pain? Sadness? Joy, surprise? And so on? Isn't that a real human being?
"It's just a lost beast, roaring and charging forward, trying to tear apart everything in its way, but in the end it will only wear out its claws, break its teeth, and then torture itself because it can't hunt.
Passed away depressed.
"But you are different now, you are alone."
Vortigern made an invitation with his palms upward, and a long horizontal table appeared between the two of them. On the bright red tablecloth were various delicacies, and behind the two of them, a high-backed chair appeared.
.
Vortigern sat down first:
"Child, you have the help of that man, then I confess to you that in a short period of time, I think it is impossible to take away your body. Either you take the bracelet off, or you surrender to me, or you die.
, otherwise, you can still live for a long time.
"Although in my opinion, living like this is nothing more than a walking corpse. What do you think? Enid."
Enid sat down opposite Vortigern
"What do you think I should think?"
Vortigern smiled and shook his head:
"Child, the first advice I give you is not to seek help and insights from your enemies, including my advice itself."
Enid asked:
"Are we enemies? In my opinion, I am not qualified to be your enemy."
Vortigern laughed again:
"No, child, although you are very weak, you are so weak that I can crush you to death with one finger. Although you are weak-willed, you are so weak that I can burn your soul with just one glance. Although you are stupid and unwise, you are so stupid that I can easily kill you."
It can fool you around.
"When you are wrong, you are my enemy, and the enemy I am determined to win. Facing you, I will use all my strength, because I want to win this war. This is a war between you and me.
You are destined to be a loser, I have this confidence, but at the same time, my victory is not a gift from God.
"Whether you are my enemy or not has never depended on your ability and status. When you sit across from me, you are already my enemy."
Enid looked at her hands:
"Maybe, Mr. King, you can regard me as an enemy, but I am not necessarily your enemy. Maybe I am here to help you."
Vortigern raised his hands and clapped them.
The bright torch lit up, and the scene around the two people became clearly visible. Two rows of chairs appeared on both sides of the long table. The two people were sitting in a splendid palace. Around the two people, there were many noble-looking people.
Men and women were fighting and laughing happily in the hall.
Vortigern picked up a glass of wine and said:
"Showing weakness to one's enemies is what a poisonous snake does, and a poisonous snake hidden in wine is far more dangerous than a lone wolf howling at you.
"I admit frankly that I don't know the purpose of your coming here, nor do I know that you want to make such a deal with me, but you definitely want something from me.
"What do you want from me? Just say it."
Enid was at a loss as Vortigern's words and deeds completely disrupted their original plans and ideas. At this time, Enid was already at a disadvantage in this negotiation.
She herself knew very well that the current situation was slipping in a direction that was not conducive to her, but what could she do, pretend that she didn't want anything? That would only make Vortigern think that she regarded him as a fool, especially
She said something like that just now.
Enid said:
"Yes, I'm here to seek your help. I want to borrow some ancient wisdom from you."
Vortigern said:
"Then what are you going to exchange for? You should know that for me, there is only one thing in you that is valuable."
Enid lowered her head.
King Bei picked up the wine bottle and poured wine into the glass goblet in front of her:
"yourself."
Enid whispered:
"Um."
Vortigern sighed:
"For me, this is a battle that must be won. No matter what, you will hand over your body, and then I will return to the ground and find the opponent that excites me.
"But I thought you could make me feel interesting, not by struggling, but by launching your counterattack against me and proving yourself with a beautiful battle, but look at yourself...
