A faint smile appeared on the Marquis's always extremely serious face.

At this moment, Zhao Guangli's eyes instantly enlarged.

Too bad!

Being tricked by this guy Marquis!

He never thought that that woman Gu Xintong was no longer in the Royal Capital Mage Group, but had taken refuge in the [Puppet Theater], which was the enemy of the Marquis.

No matter what, Zhao Guangli still has to fight the [Puppet Theater] or negotiate terms with the theater.

But the problem is...

Zhao Guangli squinted his eyes and looked at the Marquis.

"Mr. Marquis, you truly deserve to be called a [strategist]."

His voice was neither salty nor bland.

I was completely at a loss. Whether it was the slate or the supplies that I had previously given, those things were all things that I did not need to pay for.

Xue Yue looked at the two people in front of her.

"The Marquis is really a scary guy. I don't know how the Duke found these monsters."

The archbishop thought calmly.

Zhao Guangli actually didn't pay too much attention. He restrained his emotions and hid the dark red void in his body.

The old Marquis Fox... is truly a man who cannot be understood.

Just when Zhao Guangli was about to retreat, the Marquis disappeared completely.

In an instant, that elegant figure appeared very close to Zhao Guangli.

Zhao Guangli could even hear the Marquis' snoring.

"The stone slabs from [Gracia] and the materials for the smuggling channel are not necessary."

A man's voice sounded: "If you want to cooperate, you must make the collaborator feel sincerity."

The Marquis' face was frosty, but his words were gentle.

"The price just now was the price when Gu Xintong was still in the Wangdu Mage Group, but now, since I can't provide the goods, I naturally deserve it."

Zhao Guangli's eyes flashed.

Just this move made Zhao Guangli even more fearful of the Marquis.

If the Marquis really cheated Zhao Guangli's supplies through information asymmetry, Zhao Guangli would not say anything.

But the Marquis returned those things.

"[Counselor] Marquis, what does he want to do?"

Zhao Guangli did not take action, but looked at the Marquis quietly.

"Oh right."

At this moment, the Marquis seemed to have thought of something, and his exquisite eyes seemed to contain the stars and the sea: "There is something that the [Queen] asked me to give to you."

The void trembles and time freezes.

In the hands of the Marquis, an unparalleled and exquisite bronze token appeared.

He looked at the token, emotion and reminiscence flashed across his face.

"Mr. Zhao Guangli, this is the token of the [Earl] among the [Five Lords]... With him, you will have the power second only to me in the kingdom."

Seriously.

Zhao Guangli did not take the token.

Among the five lords, the Marquis is the actual person in power of the fallen kingdom. Second only to him is the Earl who died of weakness after returning from [Dark Town]. This is undoubtedly the top-level ruling force in the kingdom.

Now...with just a few words, the Marquis gave this thing to himself?

What a joke.

To be able to develop a kingdom from poverty to what it is now, the Fifth Lord is not a fool.

"No."

Zhao Guangli thought for a moment.

"The kingdom wants to tie me to the warship. I have a blood feud with Cronus. As long as that god is in the Sky Drive Alliance for one day, I will not be able to go back."

"Has the Marquis got this right about me?"

Zhao Guangli smiled: "Mr. Marquis, this gift is a bit too expensive."

The Marquis looked into Zhao Guangli's eyes: "If you agree, the Duke and Queen will have reason to help you."

Zhao Guangli shook his head.

To put it bluntly, Zhao Guangli is really not optimistic about the future of the kingdom.

The kingdom has been able to survive until now only because of two super professionals.

If you really want to destroy the kingdom, without the duke and queen, the military of the Sky Drive Alliance will be able to do so easily.

Being tied to the kingdom's ship, getting help from the kingdom will also hinder the kingdom.

"The Fifth Lord also knows this, which is why he is so eager to eliminate the internal forces and sets his goal on the exploration of the [Sub-Hell Zone]."

Zhao Guangli was thinking.

The Marquis was also thinking.

The two of them had expressionless faces, and their emotions were turbulent.

"If the count is still alive... I should be able to relax a little bit."

The Marquis looked a little dazed.

The little, baby-faced man at the time was the one he had the most trouble with, his personality was lazy, and he especially liked to make fun of himself... He was still the same annoying person until the day he died.

It’s just... I really miss that bastard.

The Marquis glanced at Zhao Guangli's face.

He knew very well what Zhao Guangli was thinking.

Tianming did not want to completely tie up the kingdom, which showed that Zhao Guangli was not optimistic about the kingdom.

This is normal.

In this case, it is another compromise negotiation.

"It's unreasonable for me, an outsider, to be the Count... like this."

Zhao Guangli said: "During the launch of the [Qing Suppression War], I am willing to serve as the [Acting Earl], but after the war... I will not take the position of Earl."

In fact, if you are operating in the kingdom, the status of the Five Lords is definitely the top one, which is equivalent to the simple mode in the game. It is also an excellent help for you to kill Gu Xintong.

As soon as Zhao Guangli said this, the Marquis thought for a few seconds.

"good."

Hearing the Marquis's voice, Zhao Guangli took the Count's token.

It is heavy, solid, and contains extremely profound power.

There was a crack on it that I hadn't noticed just now.

In the cracks, there seems to be blood stains that will never solidify...

A fierce malice seemed to turn into an indescribable mist and wrapped around him. Zhao Guangli suddenly felt an unprecedented coldness, as if his soul had been frozen.

"Is this the aura of the previous generation of Earls?"

Zhao Guangli held the token and quickly looked at the Marquis.

The Marquis nodded and answered in the affirmative, but he was obviously unwilling to say anything more.

"The power of the curse is so deep, the unwilling resentment of the person holding the token before his death is simply beyond words."

Zhao Guangli held the token in his right hand, and the power of the curse surged through his body, swallowing up the special resentment on the token.

"The earl died in his prime. I'm afraid he was not more than forty years old when he died..."

"The cracks were dug out with human fingers. It was most likely scratched by the count himself. This proves that he was really in pain before he died. He was able to go to [Dark Town] to explore. In any case, he was a strong one among high-level transcendent beings. He was

Forced to this extent..."

No one could feel the count's pain before his death better than Zhao Guangli at this moment.

Isn't this a bad sign?

"[Night Town]..."

Zhao Guangli's heart sank.

After this war, I will definitely run inside.

The sub-hell zone is a place where humans cannot set foot. How many strange things are hidden there?

No longer thinking about it for the time being, Zhao Guangli held the token in the air.

The Five Lords are famous in the extraordinary world. From the day he debuted, Zhao Guangli never thought that one day he would become one of the "Five Lords".

At this moment, Xue Yue stepped forward.

"Your Majesty the Marquis, Your Majesty the Earl."

"If the exchange between the two of you is over, we should also talk about the details of this war, right?"
