If Count Delta was sincere in asking for reconciliation, Jia Zhengjin would not bother to take his life.
However, this guy actually gave him a resentful mirror. He looked smiling on the surface, but in fact, he was hiding a knife in his smile and wanted the lives of Jia Zhengjin and his "mercenary partners".
You must know that Jia Zhengjin is now the Duke of the Kingdom. This guy dares to commit murder. He is really bold. It also proves that the power behind him is strong, so he has something to rely on.
He probably didn't investigate clearly how Jia Zhengjin got his identity as Duke. If he knew that the other party was a super powerful mercenary who solved the Titan Maze, he probably wouldn't dare to be so unscrupulous.
This guy is obviously used to being arrogant, or maybe he knows that Jia Zhengjin is the super powerful mercenary who can solve the Titan Maze problem, but he still doesn't take him seriously? This is not impossible!
In any case, his own behavior has ruined his life.
Of course, it was not convenient for Jia Zhengjin to do it himself, but it was quite simple to cause Count Delta to die naturally without anyone doubting it.
Why worry too much about a dead man's calculations?
Thinking of this, he immediately put the mirror away with a smile: "Count Delta is so kind, I like this mirror very much! We did have misunderstandings before, and we will serve His Majesty from now on. I hope you will take good care of me."
"Your Majesty, the Duke is right," Count Delta said with a flattering look, "You are the distinguished Duke, with a high status. It is I who need the support of the Duke."
"Easy to say, easy to say!" Jia Zhengjin laughed, who wouldn't do it superficially?
Count Delta felt that the "Duke Martin" in front of him was really fooled, and he felt quite proud.
So what if you are a duke appointed by the king himself?
What kind of bad luck did a shabby mercenary get, and he really thought he was a big shot? I am the local snake here, and you will never end well if you go against me!
Not many people know about this mirror of resentful spirits. After you die, no one will be able to find out the reason. Even the king will not know that it was me.
If you want to blame, blame yourself and those mercenaries of yours. If you hadn't ruined my good deeds, I wouldn't have killed you!
Count Delta thought to himself and turned around to look around: "By the way, Sir Duke, where are your companions? Why aren't they here? Why don't you call them out and I'll also apologize and reconcile!"
"No need." Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "They were invited to Miss Perridge's house and had dinner with her."
Hearing this, Count Delta was stunned for a moment, and his eyes were very surprised: "The Duke spent 4,500 gold coins to take the opportunity, but he actually gave it to his companion? You are so generous!"
"Is it generous?" Jia Zhengjin smiled slightly, "It's just a meal, what's the big deal."
"It seems that the Duke doesn't know Miss Perigi, or even knows about her?" Count Delta said softly, "It is a pity that such an opportunity should be given to others!"
"What's so special about this Miss Perigi? Why are you all rushing over and spending so much money just to have a meal with her?" Jia Zhengjin asked curiously.
"Your Excellency, you really don't know?"
"I'm new here, so I don't know much about it. Can you tell me more about it?" Jia Zhengjin put on an expression of seeking knowledge.
Count Delta said to himself that since you didn’t know, why didn’t you argue with me at that time? Is it just to disgust me?
But there was no trace on his face, and he smiled and said to him: "Since the Duke wants to know, then I will tell you directly! Miss Perigi has an unparalleled magical talent, and it is said that she has the potential to become an eighth-level or above
She is a strong person, and may even break through to the ninth level. Based on this alone, it is very important to have a good relationship with her, and it is worth spending more gold coins."
"Oh, the talent is good." Jia Zhengjin nodded calmly.
Seeing that he was so indifferent, Count Delta continued, "This is the first reason. Secondly, Miss Perigi is very beautiful, a beauty that is rare to see in a century. If we both feel good about having dinner together this time,
It is also possible to develop further in the future and win the beauty back!"
Jia Zhengjin didn't say anything. He just felt that because he was so talented and beautiful, it was necessary for the other party to auction off the opportunity to have dinner with him? Or did she have some agenda?
"Then the third point is the most important!" Count Delta continued.
"Oh? There's a third point?" Jia Zhengjin asked in confusion, "What is the third point?"
"If it were anyone else, I would definitely not say it! But if the Duke wants to know, I will tell you everything!" Count Delta responded with a smile. In fact, he already regarded the other person as a dead person in his heart. Saying these words to a dead person, it is useless even if he knows it.
, "You should also know that being a magician costs a lot of money."
"That's right!" Jia Zhengjin nodded.
"Miss Perigi actually comes from a good family, but she almost spent all her savings because of her addiction to magic research." Count Delta said with a smile, "Therefore, she needs financial assistance to maintain her magic practice and research on magic. This auction has a total of
The opportunity to have dinner is actually an opportunity for Miss Perridge to find a stable source of funds, so if she is right, it is very possible to marry him directly. However, her own hope is to negotiate with the person who took the opportunity.
The latest research on the offensive magic tower. Because the person who can spend a lot of money to take this opportunity definitely has the capital to help commercialize her magic tower and earn more gold coins for her family. Maybe she can do it without relying on others.
Next, let’s restore the family’s strength again.”
"Offensive magic tower?" Jia Zhengjin was quite interested in this. "I know the magic tower. It is a special building for magicians to practice. What is the situation of this offensive magic tower?"
"It is said that only some complex magic materials and low-level magic cores are needed to modify the building, and it can become an automatic defense building with considerable destructive power. Any approaching enemies or monsters will be attacked by magic, which is astonishingly powerful!" Del
The Earl of the Tower replied, "But so far, it's only Miss Perridge who has spoken to the outside world. The real magic tower needs to be eaten face to face with her before you have a chance to see it."
"That's it." Jia Zhengjin nodded slightly, and he really became interested. However, he had already said clearly that he couldn't go, so he couldn't run over to join in the fun at this moment. The question is, which magic tower is so attractive? I really want to know.
How powerful is it? How does it compare with my own arrow tower?
Tina and the others don't know about this situation at all. Wouldn't it be a pity if Miss Perridge mentions the magic tower and they are not interested? (To be continued)
