Almighty Alchemist
Chapter 28 Collusion
On the terrace of the hotel. Christine held on to the railing. Press your body against the railing. Looking at the brilliant and charming lights in the distance.
She was in no hurry to speak. Just enjoying the beautiful night view to the fullest.
Huey stood behind her. Gently cover her with the coat. The movements are gentle. Like a close lover.
"I created a good opportunity for you, Master Dardanelle." Christine didn't look back. He said to himself.
"What chance?" Xiu Yi asked.
"Close the patio door."
Huey turned and did as he did.
Christine turned and leaned herself against the railing. Looking at Xiu Yi. Then she frowned: "Can you take off your glasses."
"Why."
"I think you look better in the Lanya Theater."
Huey thought about it. Take off the glasses. Walking to Christine's side: "You just said. You gave me a chance."
"Don't play dumb. You know what I'm talking about. You can throw me out of here now. Then tell everyone I've stumbled. That way you don't have to worry about someone finding you out."
"No." Xiu Yi shook her head: "It's not something a gentleman should do to destroy flowers with his hands."
He put his hand on Christine's face: "You are beautiful, Ma'am. I can't imagine when your head hits the ground. Brains burst. Beauty shatters. Lifeless. You know. People will appear after death. It's a disgusting phenomenon. It only takes a day. Your proud beauty will become terrible. When your flesh and blood fall off and finally become a skeleton. All beauty. Will become meaningless."
Christine's face was livid: "Hugh Iglesne. Don't use this kind of language and description to disgust me."
Xiu Yi looked at the other party coldly: "That's because I didn't intend to please you. Tell my wife. What are you going to do. You invited me here at the risk of offending me and death. It's not because you care about me."
"Before that. Answer me what you are here for."
"Nothing to do with you."
"It's already related. Let me remind you again. I have already proved once that you are not Hugh Iglell. If you do something in Royo City, I will be implicated in the end."
"Don't worry. I attach great importance to the identity of Dardanelle. If possible. I hope to keep it forever."
"And what about Hugh Igles. He has since disappeared."
"No." A mysterious smile appeared on Xiu Yi's face: "He will make trouble twice as much."
Christine stared at Xiu Yi: "It's impossible. You can't be two people. Even if you are a magician and an alchemist, you can't do it either."
"Maybe I can. For example, tonight I am staying at the mansion of a certain noble countess. And in another place. Huey Glare is killing people..." Huey's fingers lightly brushed across Christine's delicate face.
Christine was slightly startled: "You want to use me."
"The biggest difference between a successful man and a loser is that the former will always take advantage of various opportunities and turn all the unfavorable factors into favorable factors. I have to say, Mrs. Christine. Your appearance and your timely silence gave me a better idea. I believe that there will be enough men in this city to watch me enter your mansion. I will not come out until the next morning. They may go crazy with jealousy. But what does it matter. The important thing is that they will be my witnesses."
"Don't even think about it."
"Ma'am. You risked your life to invite me to this terrace. You just wanted to coerce me into something. Otherwise, you can make excuses. I guess when you saw me, you must have had some thoughts. That's why you insisted so much. I'm just offering a price."
"You know what I want you to do for me."
"What else can it be?" Xiu Yi sneered. He gently leaned into Christine's ear: "In your impression, I can kill people. What else can I do."
Christine looked at Huey in horror. She never dreamed of it. Xiu Yi would actually see through all her thoughts.
That's right. When she found Sisther Darnell. Of course her first reaction was not to expose him. Otherwise, it will inevitably cause the other party to kill wildly. But the second reaction is to realize that the other party is here. There must be a big conspiracy. This may be the opportunity to blackmail him.
But she didn't expect that Xiu Yi would quickly see through her thoughts. In turn, the conditions were put forward first.
The question is if he agrees to Xiu Yi. That's not a simple coercion.
That is collusion.
Huey whispered in Christine's ear: "Madam, you have no chance to choose. From now on, you and I either live together or die together. No. To be precise, you die. I escape. The Lance Empire can't catch me. But it can easily deal with you."
Christine sighed: "Is this what happens when you make a deal with the devil?"
"This is the end of greed. I didn't intend to do this. But after I found out that you have a strong willingness to blackmail me, I realized that this is an opportunity that can be used. Mrs. Christine. The Dardanelles want to rise in the Lance Empire. They need strong support. Although we have found some partners. But we also need allies who can be more heart-to-heart. This is the only reason I can not kill you. It needs some conditions and chips. Isn't it."
Christine nodded helplessly: "My ex-husband Weston has no children. But he has a brother. According to the laws of the country, if I die, then he is the only heir. Therefore, he is the first among the men in the Lance Empire who desire my death the most. I am not only surrounded by suitors, but also chased by assassins and killers."
"Why not let your suitor take care of this trouble."
"There are too many people staring at me and trying to take over me and my property. Once my brother-in-law dies, many people will come to investigate the cause of his death. I need someone to take the blame. Someone who is capable and not afraid of offending the empire. Xiu Yiglaer is undoubtedly a good choice. You only need an excuse. And I can help you create it."
"Deliberate. So where is he?"
"Winnington."
"After the incident in Royo City is over. I will go there. He will no longer be your trouble. During this time, I will be responsible for your safety."
"Also, I have encountered some troubles in business in various parts of the empire. Some chambers of commerce bullied me as a woman. They tried to gang up and blackmail me. They wanted me to give up some shops. Some people wanted me to use my body to trade. The purpose is different. The means are the same."
"I guess you have the list."
"That's right."
"Then congratulations. They won't be a problem either. You can even take over their shops instead. Of course. It will take time."
"The last thing is to avoid those annoying flies that are always stalking me. I tell everyone. Whoever can get your head. I will consider marrying him."
Xiu Yi's expression is wonderful.
He looked at Christine in surprise. The other party smiled happily.
She said, "Hope you're not offended. I do get a bit too boring sometimes."
Xiu Yi thought for a while: "It can be seen that you like excitement. Then how many noble children plan to exchange my head for your heart."
"Probably not too few. They won't do it themselves. But some people are asking high-level warriors to kill you at any cost. As far as I know, there are already seven strong men who are above the earth warriors who have accepted the commission. I heard that there is even a strong star among them."
"It sounds like you have more appeal than the Lance Empire. The Empire only sent two sky warriors and a sixth-level mage to deal with me. But you suddenly caused me more trouble than that." Xiuyi couldn't laugh or cry.
What's even more dumbfounding is that. Christine sent someone to hunt and kill herself. But I have to help Christine solve the trouble. This thing sounds too unbelievable.
Christine covered her mouth and smiled: "It turns out that you are also very clear about the movement of the empire. I originally planned to use this news to sell it for a good price. It's a pity. But don't worry. They won't be able to come here in a short time. You just need to concentrate on dealing with Kevin Biers and the others. As for the future..."
"Even if I come, I won't worry about anything." Xiu Yi said coldly.
"Oh." Christine patted her beautiful forehead. With a charming voice: "I almost forgot. You also have a helper."
"They are all vicious guys. If you let them know what you have done to me, they will probably rape you and kill you immediately."
"If that's the case. I hope you will do the first half of the work." Christine smiled. He looked unafraid. at this point. She really had nothing to fear.
"I'm not interested in that right now. All I need is a reason to trust you."
"You are an alchemist. Don't alchemists have many ways to control others?"
"You requested this on your own initiative." Xiu Yi was a little surprised.
"It's better to ask than to receive. I can't escape this. Can I?"
"That's right. That's why you chose to blackmail me, right. When you see me. You know that this is the best solution for me. So you try to benefit yourself as much as possible."
"That's right."
Xiu Yi began to admire the wisdom of this woman. He tapped lightly on the back of Christine's neck. Christine felt only a slight tingling in her neck.
"I hope there will be no sequelae." Christine was a little worried. She was not afraid that Xiu Yi had given herself some powerful poison. But I'm afraid that it will affect her appearance afterwards.
"Don't worry. It's just that it's not easy to sleep tonight. As long as I don't die, nothing will happen to you." Xiuyi replied.
"Then when do you plan to use my room. To create opportunities for your avatar technique." Christine stared at Xiuyi. It seems that there is quite a bit of expectation.
"There are still some days. Before that..." Huey leaned into Christine's ear: "Enjoy the fun of being crazily pursued by a rich young master."
"I've enjoyed it many times." Christine blinked.
"The devil's romance. It will always be different from ordinary people." Xiuyi laughed.
Suddenly he jumped off the terrace.
Christine was taken aback by his movement. He turned his head and looked down at the railing. I saw the Xiuyi people in the air. The voice floated: "Go back and tell the guests. I am in a good mood today. Let's go first."
His figure is like an eagle spreading its wings. Lightly fell to the ground. The altitude of more than ten meters has no effect on him.
After standing still. He raised his head and waved to Christine. Then leave.
"The devil. I've got more to say. You should tell me how long it takes for the damn poison or something to work." Christine rapped on the railing angrily. It was like being bitten by a mosquito on the back of the neck. A dull pain. This made her a little scared.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The bright red wine swirled gently in the glass a few times. Finally put it in the mouth.
Huo Ding half-closed his eyes and savored carefully. Then he let out an admiration: "It's been a long time since I drank such delicious wine."
He is now leaning in front of the tall wine cabinet. It is filled with fine wine in exquisite bottles of various colors. Elegant posture. Look relaxed.
"Did you drink less in Locust Town before?" Lilith half-lyed on the soft big bed and looked at the other party with disdainful eyes.
"Oh. That's different." Huo Ding raised a finger and shook it lightly: "You must know that drinking is not just about tasting the taste of the wine. What's important is the unique artistic conception when tasting the wine. Take a look. The attentive waiter, the gorgeous room, and the charming lighting. If there is another beautiful woman who can accompany you to spend the night with you, what a wonderful life it would be. And all of these are not available in Black Locust Town."
"This is the real reason why you are willing to take the risk to join my plan." Not far away, Xiuyi had already taken a bath. Wipe your hair with a damp washcloth. He walked out wearing only a pair of shorts.
Lilith picked up a blanket and threw it at him.
"Thank you." Huey wrapped herself in a blanket. Lying beside Lilith.
"That's right. Everyone has their own reasons to take risks. Lilith and Brian wanted to kill Kevin Biers. Iger owed it to Brian. And I. My real purpose is this. As long as it allows me to enjoy the good life I've been looking forward to for a long time. I'm willing to take any kind of risk." Huo Ding raised his glass to Huey. Then gulp it down.
Huey said: "I hope you can pass on your experience of enjoying life to those brothers. That's what I promised to give them."
Huo Ding nodded and said: "Start tomorrow. I will take them around for a while. This is not a problem. But it is you who worries me. From your description, I can see that the countess may be difficult to deal with."
"Dealing with women. I still have some experience." Xiu Yi said casually.
Lilith snorted coldly: "What are you going to do? Treat her like you treated me last time."
Huey immediately sat up. Going to Lilith's side: "Different people have different ways of treating them. The method you use will not work for her. Because she is a widow. Oh. Speaking of which, my fingers didn't seem to be strong enough last time. That's why you are looking at me like this now. Is that right?"
Huo Dingqi: "What are you talking about. What fingers."
Lilith was in a hurry: "Shut up. Repair Iglesel. If you dare to say a word, don't blame me for tearing you apart."
Huey shrugged at Houding. expressed helplessness. Huo Ding's two mustaches stood up. He looked at Lilith with ambiguous eyes. Thoughtful: "Finger..."
Lilith was ashamed. She stormed out of the room angrily. Ignore these two guys.
"It seems that you have done some outrageous things to her." Huo Ding laughed.
"It's for self-defense. You know her armed level is too scary. I can't do anything about it. But don't worry. I didn't destroy her last line of defense. It's just a small warning." Xiuyi laughed. Huo Ding nodded in understanding. Think about it. Huo Ding asked Xiu Yi: "So how do you plan to pursue the Countess. I hope this will not affect our follow-up plan."
"Don't worry. It will definitely not affect us. In fact, I realize that the presence of the countess is of great benefit to us."
"How to say."
"She helped us solve a big problem." Xiu Yi said.
Huo Ding lowered his head and thought for a while. His eyes lit up: "You mean money."
Talking to smart people is peace of mind.
Xiu Yi nodded: "That's right. Now we don't have to worry about funding. The Countess is the best source of money. We don't need to sell some alchemy products first and then raise funds. I have always been worried that I will be completely exposed. After all, I can't raise millions of Goldwitts with just scout bees. And the more products and technologies we sell, the more likely we will be suspected."
"The problem is that she may not be so generous."
"I can give her some alchemy as compensation. You know that I can't sell this kind of technology casually. Every time I sell one, I have to weave a lie carefully. But now I don't have to worry about this problem. The countess knows my details. At least I can save the energy of lying and money. For her, she undoubtedly bought a cornucopia that will make her a lot of money in the next few decades."
"Then what."
"Then it's performance time." Xiu Yi spread her hands.
"The sixteen-year-old family heir successfully pursued the noble widow who fascinated the entire empire. Since then, the two families have cooperated to make a fortune. And successfully entered the upper circles of the empire... Well, it is a feasible means to achieve our goal in disguise. Isn't what we have been looking for all this time not just our upper-class guide. There is no doubt that the countess is an excellent candidate." Huo Ding thought for a while. Put down the wine glass: "But I want to remind you. Women are changeable. I mean, if one day she finds out that you have tricked her, there is no poison in the world that can stay in the human body for a long time and be activated under the command of an alchemist. She will probably turn her face."
"People always think that alchemists are omnipotent. They won't find that there are many things that alchemists can't do in a short time. Unless they intend to find the answer. But I will not give them that opportunity."
"If you can. It's better to actually get her heart. It's more effective than death threats."
"It's not easy. She's a very conscious woman. She's serving us. We're serving her. It's a sale. A deal. There's no personal relationship. All love and pursuit is just a front."
"It's more reassuring to be able to act fake. You must know that even a sober woman has moments of vulnerability. In fact, for women, those criminals with a bad reputation often have a fatal attraction."
Xiuyi remembered a report about "American Women Love to Marry Criminals in Prison" that she read before her reincarnation. So he smiled: "That's right. Women are afraid of danger. They crave excitement more than men. Maybe I can try."
Houlding refilled himself with wine. A toast to Xiu Yiyao:
"Then... I wish you success."
