Leaving Rasul and Agrippina, Asker fell into deep thought again.
The key point that determined the outcome of this civil war in the empire was actually the change of sides of the Principality of Swabia.
When the Falcon family took control of the Principality of Swabia and declared its support for the emperor, the end of the civil war had already entered the final countdown.
Of course, killing the Wolf family's demigod "Hidden String" Alberto will only make the Wolf family choose to surrender and surrender faster, which will also objectively speed up the end of the civil war.
However, killing a demigod... this kind of thing is no small matter.
The demigod usually doesn't take action just because he doesn't want to waste his spirituality in vain. Once he encounters a situation where someone threatens his own life, he will naturally not hold back at all. The lethality unleashed is extremely astonishing.
Fortunately, with the support of Agrippina, a demigod, Rasul devised an assassination plan against the demigod, which sounds really feasible...Asker looked at the heavy dragon bone sword on his waist, thinking
Slightly sinking.
Could Agrippina lie? If the venom quenched into this long sword could not successfully consume the spirituality of the Secret String, then the one who did it in the end would be like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth and giving away food for nothing.
Of course, Asker soon overturned this assumption. Agrippina did not need to lie to herself:
First of all, there is currently no conflict of interest between the two parties, so there is no need for hostility. Speaking of myself, I am still from Constantinople and a member of the Solomon nation recognized by the other party. Under normal circumstances, there is no need to kill each other.
.
Secondly, it's because, if the other party really wants to murder her, there is no need to use such despicable means. With the other party's mysterious disguise skills and poisoning ability, who can escape with his life in front of her?
That is to say, the last time the opponent relied on his status as a demigod and did not choose assassination but a frontal attack, which allowed everyone in the Cangqing Sword to deal with it. Subsequently, as he arranged for Peggy and the opponent to form a master-disciple relationship, this hostile situation finally collapsed.
.
Another possibility that cannot be ruled out is that Agrippina and Rasul adopted "selective lies" to themselves.
The so-called "selective lying" means that nine out of ten words are true and one out of five is false. In this way, when the person being persuaded thinks and analyzes, most of the assumptions that "the other party is lying" put forward correspond to "nine out of ten truths".
It is obviously inconsistent at all times, so I subconsciously judge that what the other party is telling is the truth.
In fact, the "one point of lies" is the most fatal part.
If it is selective lying, then where exactly is the "one point of lies"?
For example, at the moment when an assassin is poisoned, the opponent still has the power to counterattack with one blow?
(However, if she dies, Paige will definitely turn against Agrippina, so this possibility is relatively low)
Or maybe there was nothing wrong with the assassination itself, but because it was him who stabbed him with the sword, the Wolfe family would later identify him as the murderer?
(This is more likely, but after all, I am from a mercenary group. At worst, I will avoid getting close to Burgundy territory in the future. Besides, after the civil war is over, I will go south to fight against the Holy See. As the defeated party, the Wolfe family has no way to protect itself, and there is no time in the short term.
embarrass them)
After considering all the possibilities, Asker felt that this mission was still feasible.
Of course, after all, this will aggravate the end of the civil war and bring the southern expedition to the Holy See ahead of schedule, so we have to discuss it with the girls.
Speaking of this, we have to mention the practice within the e-sports player circle: before a particularly critical major competition, the team captain must talk to everyone in private when making a list of combatants.
The specific content of the conversation is, of course, we are about to play a key game. How are you? Do you have confidence? Is the pressure okay? This game is so difficult and so crucial to us. If you feel that you are not good, just go ahead.
He said, while the list is still pending, I can ask someone else to do it for you.
Of course, generally speaking, the person being talked to will say "I have no problem." This is an application of psychology. By creating ritual inquiries and getting definite and affirmative answers, the person being talked to can strengthen their beliefs.
This reduces the possibility of abnormal performance on game day.
Of course, if the other party really has any psychological problems, such as being overly stressed or not confident, they can probably tell it during the conversation, thus avoiding a time bomb on the day of the game.
As for the order of the conversation list, Asker has already prepared it. Let’s go from high to low in age.
——————
Medea.
"What's wrong?" Medea was a little surprised.
The leader of the group actually took the initiative to ask him out. Could it be that trees can also bloom?
"I have something important to tell you." Asik said seriously.
"I do!" Medea interrupted him and agreed without hesitation.
Ask:……………………
"It's not about that." Askew couldn't laugh or cry, "It's about the future development of our team."
"Oh." Medea immediately lost interest.
Next to it was Nora's carefully cultivated garden. Medea sat down on a bench beside the garden, crossed one leg leisurely, rested her chin on one hand, and looked at the soil in the distance in a daze.
Asik looked at her exquisitely dressed profile and was speechless for a moment...
Wait, I'm here to talk about business!
"Rasul, do you remember? He is the assassin mentor we met in Olympia City."
"Remember, the assassin leader of Ilania." Medea squinted her eyes, "He appeared in the city?"
"I also made a suggestion." Ask said, "Invite me to participate in the assassination of the demigod's Hidden String."
"The commander of the army of the Wolf family attacking Bavaria." Medea thought thoughtfully, "So, they should have come up with a feasible plan."
"Yes." Asker went through the detailed plan and finally concluded, "Judging from the information provided, there is not much problem with the plan itself."
"What I'm worried about is the series of impacts after the plan succeeds."
"The civil war is over quickly, and the southern expedition is coming early." Medea said.
"That's right." Asik nodded. With a guy who can read minds, there will never be any problems with communication and understanding.
"So what?" Medea yawned, "If you decide to participate in this battle..."
"I don't know about the others, but I will definitely stay with you." She stared into Asker's eyes and said with rare seriousness, "I have betrayed my country and my father. If I can't stay with you
Where else can I go next to you?"
Ask was stunned for a long time.
This is correct. It turns out that Medea has already paid so much for me... Then should I at least consider her feelings for me...
"Stop." Asik suddenly woke up, "You are implanting thoughts into me again, right?"
"Bang." Medea turned her head.
"Can you have some moral integrity? Can you?" Ask was extremely speechless.
"What's wrong with me pursuing the person I like? What's wrong with pursuing true love?" Medea asked back.
"The way to pursue true love is to implant thoughts and brainwash?" Ask asked rhetorically.
"Don't you know that women can do whatever it takes for true love?" Medea showed off a woman's natural skill - playing rogue.
