My queen is rebelling!

#7 - Cohen's Recruitment Order

A young man vowed to scheme against the most powerful underground organization on the continent.

If these words were spoken aloud, many people would probably laugh their heads off.

However, Isabella and Modo present were clearly not among them.

Cohen cleared his throat and continued:

"Of course, this would require Miss Wenzer to make a small sacrifice, such as acting as bait."

"Absolutely not!"

Mr. Modo immediately refused. Even to save his nephew, he couldn't risk the young lady's safety.

Isabella lightly raised her delicate eyebrows and said:

"Explain in detail."

"The deal with Grand Duke Roland remains unchanged. Following the normal procedure, inform Veser of the news, then gather your subordinates and launch an ambush against Black Tomb."

Mr. Modo shook his head and said:

"That's too risky. We don't know how many people 'Black Tomb' has in the vicinity. Miss and I didn't bring many people this time either. If things go wrong, the price will be too high!"

Cohen ignored Modo and turned his gaze to Isabella.

Isabella's eyes sparkled with captivating light as she sized up Cohen with interest and asked:

"Does Your Excellency know the specific number of Black Tomb's ambushers?"

Cohen replied indifferently:

"Two Saint-tier, three Legendary… plus five Gold-tier leading five Tomb Guard squads."

This force was enough to sweep through some middle-sized duchies, but now it was only used to besiege a young woman.

There was no surprise on Isabella's face. In fact, this force had not exceeded her expectations. It was just that time was tight, otherwise, definitely more would have come!

Isabella suddenly stood up, took a few steps forward, and got very close to Cohen.

"The scent is nice. What brand of perfume is this? Could it be your natural body fragrance? You can get closer, and maybe I'll answer."

Isabella's jade face flushed slightly, she took a few steps back, and said with a hint of annoyance:

"Sir, are you not afraid of those princes and heirs at this time?"

Isabella calmed her mind and returned to the main topic:

"I'm urgently mobilizing people now. Everything else is easy to handle, but I can only mobilize two Saint-tier. If the high-end combat power is evenly matched, the best outcome would be killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of our own. This deal isn't worth it."

Two Saint-tier, Cohen's face remained expressionless, but his heart was greatly shaken. As expected of the direct heir of the "Pale Wing" five major families, two Saint-tier at once.

In this era where the gods are hidden and demigods are concealed, Saint-tier is undoubtedly the pinnacle of the continent. To casually send out two Saint-tier, Cohen was considering whether to switch to a bigger backer, after all, his Queen sister seemed ready to rebel against him at any time, which wasn't very reliable.

Cohen snapped out of his wild thoughts and replied:

"I can help you bring in two Saint-tier. Four against two, you should be confident, right?"

Isabella was slightly stunned and said in surprise:

"I take back my previous guess. Could it be that you are a prince of some empire? Strange, I've met most of the adult princes of the five great empires, and you don't seem like one…"

To casually say that he could bring in two Saint-tier, only the direct heirs of those great empires would have this ability.

Cohen didn't answer and asked:

"Cooperation?"

Isabella nodded and said:

"Yes, but I need to confirm the identities of those two Saint-tier first!"

Cohen nodded in agreement and asked: "What day is your appointment with Grand Duke Roland of the Western Regions?"

Isabella replied: "Seven days from now."

Cohen pondered for a moment and turned his gaze to Mr. Modo, saying: "Five days from now, help me make an appointment with the bishop of the Bright Church in the city."

Mr. Modo glanced at Isabella and replied:

"Alright, but the people of the Bright Church have always been arrogant. You'd better be prepared."

Although Cohen didn't explicitly say anything about the two Saint-tier, the two of them had speculations in their hearts when he suddenly mentioned the Bright Church.

As one of the most powerful elemental gods, the Bright Goddess's church is also very strong. Gathering two Saint-tier in a short time is not too difficult, but the question is where Cohen got the confidence to convince these people to be hired thugs.

Isabella really had the urge to rush forward and lift the other party's mask.

Cohen said: "In addition, I have two more requests."

"Please speak, Your Excellency."

"First, regarding the distribution of spoils, there is something in Black Tomb's possession that I am determined to obtain. That is also the prerequisite for me to bring in two Saint-tier helpers."

Isabella immediately said:

"We don't want the spoils. We just want to make sure that none of Black Tomb's people leave Florence alive."

Modo's expression changed slightly, his lips moved, wanting to say something, but he fell silent again.

Cohen was slightly stunned. Isabella's concession surprised him. As expected of a big dog tycoon of Pale Wing, they really had money.

Cohen smiled faintly and said:

"I accept the favor of the Golden Winged Woman. The other is that before we kill Black Tomb's people, I need to get some information from them."

"What information?"

"The culprit who attacked the Corleone royal family not long ago!"

Isabella narrowed her eyes slightly, nodded slowly, and said: "Okay, among the Saint-tier who came this time, there is a [Soul Singer] who can help you search souls."

Cohen snapped his fingers lightly:

"Deal!"

With the important matters discussed, Cohen suddenly had an inspiration and asked:

"By the way, I want to post a recruitment request in Pale Wing. I wonder what procedures are required?"

Isabella smiled faintly and said:

"Just tell me what you want to recruit. I won't charge you any handling fees this time. Consider it my gift to you."

Cohen calculated for a moment and said:

"Recruit an [Adventurer], third-tier or above, between the ages of forty-five and fifty, male, who knows more than five racial languages. Only post in the northwestern region of the Xilin Kingdom… The reward is a complete inheritance of a legendary-tier [Mechanic Artificer]."

Isabella looked at Cohen meaningfully and said:

"Okay, this recruitment can be issued tonight.

But I'm very curious, what is so special about the person Your Excellency is looking for?"

The conditions were so detailed, and even the reward was so precise, it was clear that Cohen was looking for someone in the Xilin Kingdom.

Cohen laughed and didn't answer directly, which made Isabella roll her eyes again.

Cohen muttered silently in his heart: "Could it be that I should tell you that this person is Arnold Constin, the future God of War who swept the continent?"

Cohen originally planned to find him himself, but he has been a bit busy recently, and it is inconvenient to go abroad, so he simply used "Pale Wing" to issue a request.

He believed that the impoverished Arnold would definitely take the bait, even if not for himself, but for his daughter who accidentally awakened warlock abilities!

A set of legendary-tier [Mechanic Artificer] inheritance will definitely move him!

With the matters discussed, Cohen felt relaxed. He had accomplished many things this night.

Looking at Isabella's exquisite and beautiful face, Cohen secretly sighed—the person in front of him was a very popular game character in his previous life, and now she was actually standing alive in front of him!

This was a person with flesh and blood, not a virtual CG image.

"Miss Wenzer, I look forward to our next cooperation. Goodbye!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Cohen had already turned into a shadow and disappeared in place.

[Enter Shadows], Ghost Crab activated!

Looking at Cohen who suddenly disappeared, a trace of surprise flashed in Isabella's beautiful eyes.

Isabella asked: "Where is he?"

Modo frowned and said slowly:

"Strange, his aura has completely disappeared. What kind of escape technique is this? Even a legendary-tier assassin couldn't hide without leaving a trace of aura! This kid has some tricks, no wonder he dared to sneak into our place alone."

Isabella's jade face was slightly condensed, and a strange meaning flashed in her beautiful eyes, and said:

"His aura can be concealed, but when the body touches, the extent of his body refinement cannot be hidden.

When I shook hands earlier, I found that he didn't even have the [Bronze Body]."

Mr. Modo seemed to have heard something shocking, and stared at his eyeballs and said:

"He doesn't even have the Bronze Body? Could it be that he hasn't even entered the extraordinary… How is this possible? How could an ordinary person who hasn't entered the extraordinary so easily disappear in front of me?"

One of the signs of advancing to the extraordinary on the Magic Tide Continent is to open the [Bronze Body] trial, and the first three tiers of the extraordinary sequence are the Bronze tier.

Isabella slightly licked her red lips, revealing a tempting charm:

"I'm becoming more and more interested in him!"
