"I just hope what you said is true." Marquis William lowered his head slightly, as if looking at the parchment in his hand, his expression hidden in a faint shadow, and nothing could be seen.
Lawrence said indifferently: "Cooperating with us is the best choice. The so-called faith is never a necessity for a great lord."
However, Lawrence probably knew part of Luochen's identity and the origin of his terror, but whether Marquis William would believe it was another matter.
A gentle smile appeared on Marquis William's face, as if he was looking at his best friend: "Although it is a bit incredible, I believe you..."
"After all, we have been old friends for more than ten years." The sincere words sounded like old friends who really cared about their heart and soul.
Lawrence knew the implicit meaning of the other party's words, and replied calmly: "Don't worry, after the matter is completed, your reward will not be less."
"Wish us a happy cooperation!" Marquis William showed a bright smile on his face.
The two old foxes chatted happily for a long time, and after finalizing quite a few details, Lawrence stood up and left, disappearing in a streak of blood.
Marquis William was still sitting in his study, writing and drawing on the parchment. The sudden appearance of the supernatural god interrupted his plan with the Wiggins family. At least, he didn't have to think about sleeping tonight.
About three hours later, as the night entered its deepest moment, the study door was knocked again, and a smile appeared on Marquis William's face: "Please come in."
Wearing light black private clothes and a majestic expression, the old man pushed open the door and entered: "William, I hope you can bring me good news."
"I also hope it's good news, but actually I don't have hope for this." Seeing the visitor, Marquis William breathed a sigh of relief and quickly answered.
As for Lawrence's so-called belief that new gods do not require belief, Marquis William did not believe it at all, and it was just a lie.
"This is information about the new god." Marquis William then threw a stack of thick parchment rolls to the old man, "I originally wanted to notify the Flame Demon Church to eradicate this new god in advance."
"After all, this new god is more of a threat to us than the one served by the Madin Church."
The thousand-year-old aristocracy has been competing with the major churches. Although they have always been at a disadvantage, they can barely survive, and the biggest reliance they can rely on for their survival is their popular base.
However, the old aristocrats that have been passed down for thousands of years are not completely destroyed. For example, around the imperial capitals of the three major empires in the center of the continent where the wind of faith is quite strong, many old aristocrats have either moved, perished, or...surrendered.
The old nobles, whose average life span was no more than seventy, persisted for thousands of years without seeing any hope. No wonder little William was confused by this situation.
But fortunately, the education in William's family was quite reliable. Even though he felt confused and difficult, little William never thought about giving in.
Like all the old nobles who had not surrendered, they were unwilling to hand over their lives to the hands of the so-called gods.
Therefore, according to Marquis William's original idea, he planned to directly sell the information about the Bloodsource Church to the Flame Demon Church.
However, when he discovered the Bloodborne Church, Lawrence also discovered the claws he sent out. At the same time, the Wiggins family sent someone to find him and shared a brand new plan with him.
The old man nodded in agreement: "At this time, the Bloodborne Church appears at the right time..."
The Bloodborne Church can help them muddy the waters.
Marquis William looked hesitant and looked at the old man: "There is one more thing, if we fail..."
"Please take more care of the William family's fire."
"Of course!" the old man promised with a serious look, "I will personally supervise the Wiggins family, and all the benefits that belong to the William family will not be less!"
"Thank you!" Marquis William nodded gratefully.
Neither of the two people who were talking noticed that in the corner of the room, a nanoscale detection unit was quietly watching the scene in front of them.
…
In the newly expanded capital of Yharnam, with a strict cordon and towering temple built around the octopus statue, Lawrence and Germain stood next to the blood pool.
The rich blood-colored spring water is quite strange. It forms a clear and transparent mirror with an area of about tens of centimeters. The mirror reflects everything that is happening in the residence of Marquis William.
"Everything seems to be going well." After getting rid of the burden of his old body with the help of the Blood Demon Insect, Germain, who was full of energy, looked at Lawrence with some fear.
"Exactly as you expected..."
"Of course, Wiggins and the entire Maca old noble alliance behind them cannot refuse the knowledge given by the master."
Lawrence had full confidence on his face: "Even if there is just a glimmer of hope, they will not give up."
Germain looked calm: "So the William family was sacrificed?"
"No, the William family cannot be sacrificed." Lawrence did not care. "If the old nobles were so short-sighted, they would not be able to survive under the Church of the Gods for another thousand years."
"When the future lord calms down everything, these old nobles will naturally choose to join!"
Hearing this, Germain didn't want to talk anymore. In terms of scheming, he was far from Lawrence's opponent.
Except for a very few people from the Bloodborne Church and the Wiggins family, no one knows that the Wiggins family has been studying how to surpass the gods.
The last part of the theoretical information was completed not long ago, and this part of the information was actually transferred to the Wiggins family after Lawrence requested the great master to donate it.
Of course, I only gave away one third...
"Now, we just need to wait quietly for the Flame Demon Church to come." Lawrence turned around and looked down.
The scattered buildings spread downward along the gentle slope of the Yharnam Mountains. From time to time, a blue tentacled slime shuttled through the buildings.
The unique building complex, the overall style is similar to the popular blue spirit style, which is completely different from the current world. Such buildings are completed one by one in the tentacles of blue slime.
"Everything is under the control of the great lord!" The crimson luster in Lawrence's pupils became more and more conspicuous, and a hint of fanatical admiration was faintly visible on his face.
Even though he already knew that Luo Chen did not need faith, he still gave everything he had without hesitation.
At his level, many things are already well understood.
For corrupt nobles, slave contracts are an important means of enslaving their subordinates and exploiting their value.
However, if you meet a "wise king", a slave contract is the best way to show your loyalty, which can quickly gain the trust of the lord and become the core of a party's power.
Lawrence is like this, and so is Germain. They are now the subjects of Luochen's personal legal world.
The information obtained by the Wiggins family, one of the pillars of the thousand-year-old noble alliance, was provided by Luo Chen.
The specific content is, how to... create a man-made "god"!
"Germain, please clean up those 'little mice' in the past few days. Now, we no longer need them to help us spread the 'virus'."
"I see!"
The reason why it is unnecessary is that Maiding City will soon fall into Luochen's hands...
