Extraordinary Rise: Starting Contract with the Silver Dragon Countess

Chapter 148 The eldest princess’ sexual orientation is questioned!
Hear the real name of the [Performer].

Cohen's mouth was slightly open, and his pupils were flashing with incredible colors.

Mephis Tinuviel!
This name was like a thunderclap, exploding in his ears!

He didn't even have time to think about why the other party suddenly changed his mind, wanted to formally join his team, and swear unconditional allegiance.

Mephis looked at Cohen's expression, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said:

"It seems my charm is not as dispensable as you said.

This is the first time I see such a surprised look on your face.

Why, are you surprised to have such a beautiful woman join your team? "

Cohen coughed twice to hide his shock.

He thought to himself, do you know why I was shocked?

I really didn't expect that the third golden-level confidant under the Lord of Sequences, Belmodi, would actually get close to the Demon Lord and become the lord of a high-level city-state!
The name Mephis Tinuviel has always been a huge mystery in the game of Cohen's previous life.

Everyone knows that the Lord of Sequences, the Cursed Witch Belmodi, has three top-level gold-level confidants under her command.

[Navigator] Planck, [Listener] Melantha, and the mysterious third person.

Regarding the third person's information, the game officials only announced her name, Mephis Tinuviel, and knew nothing else.

Appearance, identity, age and even gender are difficult to determine.

Cohen never expected that the famous [Performer] of the "Chaos Demon Continent", the killer weapon specially trained by the Demon Lord to fight against the Sequencers under the command of the Sequence Lord Belmoody, was actually the mysterious golden-level confidant of Belmoody!
What kind of alien version of Infernal Affairs is this!
It’s hidden too deeply!
Who would have thought of this!
Thinking of this, it is reasonable to speculate about all the strange behaviors of Mavis before.

Why has he been in the "City-State of Farmers" but has not taken any action against himself?

Why do I have the same sympathy and kindness towards the Sequencers as I do towards Belmoody?

It turns out that these two people are from the same family!

Then the so-called female relative she consulted before signing the contract should be Belmoody?
All of a sudden, Cohen solved many doubts.

So, is it Belmodi's intention that she joins him voluntarily and swears unconditional allegiance?

Cohen quickly overturned this speculation.

The two of them had already signed a contract, and Mavis couldn't tell the other party about this. Does that mean it was her own idea?
Am I so charming?

In fact, it was Cohen's identity as a player in his previous life that made him underestimate the appeal of concocting a perfect-level potion to the sequencers.

This attraction is enough to make Mavis risk his life.

No matter what, it is definitely a good thing for Cohen himself and his future development that a half-step legendary extraordinary person is willing to join his team unconditionally.

After a long silence, Cohen's thoughts returned and he replied:

"I am indeed surprised. I feel very honored to be recognized by Miss Mavis."

He slowly stretched out his hand and said:
"Welcome to the Infinity Blade adventure group, my Intelligence Officer!"

Mavis shook Cohen's hand without hesitation. A strange expression appeared on his face. After a few seconds of silence, he murmured:
"I hope I made the right choice."

Cohen's voice was full of determination:
"Miss Mavis, I promise you that as long as we treat each other sincerely, you will definitely get unexpected rewards!"

Mavis let go of his hand and suddenly said:
"Let me make it clear in advance that no matter what your relationship is with the other members of the group.

You and I are simply superiors and subordinates. You cannot do anything that touches my bottom line and dignity."

Cohen said helplessly:
"I think you still have a misunderstanding about me. Let me reiterate that our relationship is one of equal cooperation. As for the rest, you really don't need to worry.

I really don’t have that kind of thought about you.”

As he spoke, Cohen took out another contract. After the two of them signed the contract again, the expression on Cohen's face was obviously much more relaxed.

Being able to bring in such a powerful helper for his team will undoubtedly be of great benefit to the future development of "Farmer City-State".

Mavis looked at the contract that Cohen put away, feeling a little anxious, as if he had sold himself out.

Cohen understood what Mavis felt, but she didn't say much.

He believed that with the passage of time, Mephis would eventually merge with them and form a common group.

Cohen quickly said:

"To advance to the Legendary rank, you need to take the potion 'Advanced I'.

This is also a new potion, but the configuration process is not as complicated as "Command I".

I will tell you the specific methods and configuration materials for adaptive training.

However, I suggest that you settle down for a while and stabilize your realm. Once your body and mind are ready, you can seek to break through to the legendary level.

Otherwise your body may not be able to withstand such great pressure."

Mephis did not object. In fact, she was not very confident about breaking through the legendary level at the moment.

Even if there was a ready-made potion that could break through to the legendary level, she would not dare to take it rashly.

Even her sister, the most gifted Sequencer, Lord of Sequence, Belmodi, spent five years preparing for the final potion that would allow her to break through to the Legendary level.

Besides, she is still serving under the Demon Lord. If she really breaks through to the legendary level, it will arouse the Demon Lord's suspicion and jealousy.

Seeing that Cohen was so quick to consider him as one of his own, Mavis felt a little warm in his heart. After thinking for a while, he said:
"In a few days, I will announce that our 'Magic Potion City-State' will form a cooperative alliance with your 'Cultivator City-State'.

This is the certificate for entering and exiting the 'Leshen Castle', and also confers some authority over the city-state's guards."

Mavis handed Cohen a token.

Cohen took it and said:
"Will this arouse the Demon Lord's suspicion?"

Mavis shook his head and said:

“No need, we, the city lords of high-level city-states, have a great deal of autonomy.

Besides, I have already told the Demon Lord that I want to expand the scale of cooperation with you.

Besides, the Demon Lord wouldn’t care too much about a low-order city-state.

It was only because of you...our 'Cultivator City's' unique resource advantages that the Demon Lord asked me to keep an eye on the developments here.

Essentially, being able to reach a deeper cooperation with the Cultivator City-State would actually be more beneficial to Chaos Demon Continent."

Cohen was relieved, but soon said:

"A small, low-level city-state?

I guess the name will change when I return."

Cohen immediately told the other party about the "Spark of Order", but he did not explain it in detail, only mentioned it vaguely.

The "City-State of Farmers" will continue to expand outward, and on a large scale.

Mavis's face naturally showed a look of surprise, and after a long pause he said:

"No wonder you set your sights on the Cultivator City-State as soon as you arrived in the Lost Lands.

Only with the most basic food resources can you slowly develop your power."

Cohen nodded and said:
“That’s exactly what I planned at the beginning.

How about it? Are you interested in going to the "City of Farmers" with me?

Igniting the 'Spark of Order' will be much smoother with the help of a Half-Step Legend like you.

I'd also like to introduce our teammates to you."

Mephisto did not object. After arranging all the matters in the Potion City, he followed Cohen back to the "City of Farmers".

……

The farmer's city-state and the city lord's mansion.

In the living area, several girls from the "Infinity Blade" adventure team gathered together for a rare occasion.

After the girls' hard work for a period of time, all the work in the Farmer City-State was completely put on the right track, thriving, and everything was moving in a good direction.

At Nephthys's suggestion, several people decided to get together today to exchange information on the progress of their respective work.

And discuss the next development plan of the city-state, and also give everyone a day off to have a good rest.

Knowing that she didn't have to go out to work today, Grace changed into a bolder outfit.

Today, Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal is wearing a pure white cross-back halter-neck fishtail dress.

The front is a halterneck design, and the deep V-neck design exposes Grace's delicate collarbone, jade-colored arms and flat belly to the air.

There were only two cross-shaped cloth strips tied on the back, revealing the snow-white and delicate butterfly back. A breathtaking curve could be vaguely seen from the side.

The waist and hip curves of the lower body are very well-controlled, and the skirt is divided into arcs and spliced with transparent fabrics, and the plump and straight long legs are faintly visible.

She was extremely sexy yet graceful and elegant. As soon as she entered the room, several girls looked at her with strange eyes.

The youngest girl, Freya, blushed slightly when she saw Grace wearing such revealing clothes. She couldn't understand why she would wear such... well, shameless clothes.

But he couldn't help but secretly glance at Grace's clothes, with an inexplicable color in his eyes.

Windsardler curled his lips slightly, muttered a vixen, then turned his gaze away and looked down at the document in his hand.

Grace noticed everyone's gaze, proudly puffed out her full chest, walked to Freya's side, touched her delicate little face with her slender hand, and said with a sweet smile:

"Girl, dressing yourself is the most important lesson for a woman.

A suitable set of clothes can multiply a woman's charm and help you better capture the heart of your loved one.

If you are willing, I can make up for this lesson for you later."

Freya's face became noticeably redder, and she looked at Nephthys for help.

Nephthys sighed softly and said:

"Your Highness, please don't tease Freya. She is still a child."

Grace said casually:

"What's wrong with being a kid? This kind of thing should be cultivated from a young age. If you wait until you find someone you like and then think about dressing up, it will be too late."

Windsordler, who was looking through the documents, said calmly without even raising his head:
"Your Highness, who are you trying to capture by dressing like this?
There are only women in the living area. It's impossible that the eldest princess of the Eastern Territory Empire actually likes women.

No wonder you haven’t gotten married yet…”

Grace's mouth curled up dangerously, and she walked in front of Windsordler in high heels.

Bending down, her beautiful face almost touched Windsardler's cheek, she breathed in the fragrance and said:

"Do you think he is the one you like?"

Windsardelle's eyes were dazed for a moment, and then the pendant hanging around his neck flickered, his pupils instantly became clear, and a hint of anger appeared on his face.

He glanced at the pair of round breasts that were so close and vague, raised his palm, and slapped Grace's chest mercilessly:
"Little succubus, it's better to use your charm on men!"

Grace laughed sweetly, and with a flash of her figure, she dodged Windsardler's attack, and kept teasing him, "There's no need to be so jealous just because yours is not as big as mine.

Call me sister, maybe I can teach you a trick or two on breast enlargement."

Nephthys picked up the document and covered her face with it, looking hopeless.

It wasn't long after this calmness, and the two of them were about to start Shura mode again.

Just as the two were about to fight, Asuna walked in.

Among these girls, the one who works the hardest is the city lord.

There are countless government affairs to deal with every day. After not seeing him for a while, he has become much thinner.

Asuna and Grace's dressing styles are completely different.

Asuna was wearing a formal dress, showing her elegance and grandeur.

The slim-fitting jacket and exquisite tailoring highlight the slender and upright figure.

The collar of the pure white shirt is slightly open, revealing the slender swan neck, adding a touch of casual beauty.

A simple pair of black straight pants with a drapey feel, highlighting Asuna's straight and slender legs.

She wore a pair of pure black suede high heels with thin heels, and when she walked, the white instep of her feet was faintly visible.

Her chestnut hair was neatly combed back, revealing her smooth forehead. Her light makeup was just right, and her bright eyes revealed a hint of fatigue.

She is dignified and capable, exuding the charm of a professional woman. She has a mature and steady temperament, while retaining the softness and grace of a woman.

Seeing Asuna come in, Nephthys immediately brought her a cup of black tea and said softly:
"Sister Asuna, you've worked hard. You've made the greatest contribution these days. Come over and take a rest."

Asuna smiled gently.

“The sisters are also very hard-working.

Hey, Her Royal Highness the Princess looks so beautiful today.

My vocabulary is limited and I can't think of any better adjectives.

It's a pity that someone is not here, otherwise he would have been able to give a better evaluation."

Seeing Asuna come in, Grace and Windsardler stopped at the same time.

Grace couldn't suppress a smile when she heard Asuna's praise:
"He won't have the pleasure of seeing this. I only intend to keep this dress for my future husband..."

"What are you looking at..."

When Cohen stepped into the room, his eyes were immediately attracted by Grace's dress.

This woman is really capable. She is worthy of being a succubus. Cohen feels that his willpower is collapsing step by step.

Cohen's sudden appearance startled the girls.

Grace suddenly heard the man's voice and her face changed slightly. When she saw that it was Cohen, she cursed softly.

Why did this bastard come back without even saying hello?

Also, how come I, with my cultivation level at the Golden Stage, didn't even sense his aura?

Grace's figure flashed slightly, and when she reappeared, she was wearing a linen knitted cardigan jacket, covering up her seductive figure.

However, that vague outline continued to test Cohen's self-control.

Windsardler laughed coldly:

"Are you feeling shy now? If you dare to wear it, don't be afraid of people seeing it!"

Grace smiled faintly and said:
"It's cold, put on a coat. What, do you have any objections?"

Cohen was also a little embarrassed. Grace must have thought that no men would show up, so she dressed so revealingly.

When he entered the city lord's mansion, he didn't see anyone. After asking the maid, he found out that everyone was having a party there, so he came over directly.

But soon, this awkward atmosphere was washed away by the surprise of Cohen's return.

Nephthys was obviously very happy and said:
"Have you finished your work, sir?
Is everything going well? Did the city lord give you any trouble?

I heard from Her Royal Highness the Princess that Mr. went to the Kingdom of Ceylon. Did something happen?"

The others also looked over.

Cohen smiled gently and answered them one by one:
“It’s done, and it went much more smoothly than expected.

The purpose of going to the Kingdom of Ceylon was to get something for the Lord of the Potion City-State, nothing else.

Thank you all for your hard work during this period."

Nephthys said:

“It’s all what we should do.

Sir, we are exchanging information about our respective work and discussing the next steps."

Now that Cohen had returned, several people reported directly to him on the work they were responsible for.

Asuna briefly reported on the various government affairs within the city-state, focusing on the two deputy city lords who had been elected.
"One is held by Dennis Robinson, the former brain trustee of the 'Farmers Association' codenamed 'Vegetable Farmer'.

The other is the fourth-level [Agriculturist] Saffron."

Cohen asked curiously:
"Where is Thomas Wade, the former leader of the Farmers' Association?"

Asuna recalled the name and then spoke:
“I don’t know why he didn’t run for deputy city lord.

Dennis said he is currently working in the External Security Bureau that Mr.

Cohen seemed to be lost in thought. Perhaps the captain's betrayal had shocked him too much, and he was unwilling to show up in public and get involved in the power arena again.

Asuna continued:
"As for other aspects, the city-state master plan has already solicited opinions from all sectors of society. The Council of State is going through the procedures and is expected to be approved and implemented next week.

The main content is public infrastructure, which is being gradually renovated and rebuilt.

The magic circle that the gentleman sent over earlier has been set up, and the core of the magic circle has been placed in Sister Windsardler's room for easy monitoring.

Before he left, the gentleman instructed us to come up with a plan to attract new people to the country. We're still working on it, and it should be ready in the next few days."

Cohen nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Add one more clause to that plan: the first 50,000 citizens who arrive will be exempt from paying residence fees for three years."

"it is good."

Asuna took note of it carefully.

Next is Nephthys, who is in charge of financial affairs:
“Sir, the first loan from the Taiwo family has arrived, and there are also some large expenditures, such as infrastructure, military equipment, etc.

With the financial support from Sister Grace, overall, it is still sufficient.

As for the construction after the new "Order Solidification Land" is opened up, we will have to wait for the Taiwo family's follow-up funds."

Grace pulled her coat and said:
"The logistics routes for delivery from Unicorn Trading Company are quite good.

'Flaming Red Lips' has sold out several times and can be considered to have opened up a new market.

I will make the decision and give you, my personal secretary, a 10% stake."

Cohen's mouth twitched slightly. Did this woman really take the forged identity she had given her seriously?
Seeing the expression on Cohen's face, Grace started to speak:

"Hey, I've officially notified the top management of the Chamber of Commerce.

I've created the position of Chairman's Personal Secretary just for you. Don't take it lightly. You'll have to go back with me to attend the staff meeting at the end of the year!"

Seeing Grace's serious look, Cohen also understood her intention.

Sooner or later, he would go to the Eastern Territory Empire to assist Grace, and having such an identity would make it easier for him to work for her, so he accepted it.

Finally, there is Windsordler, who is in charge of diplomacy:

“I don’t have any big things going on here, just a cooperative alliance with those forces.

We have already contacted the Solari family. As long as we open up the new "Order Solid Land" here, the infrastructure there can immediately follow.

The fire has been successfully retrieved and can be lit at any time."

Cohen nodded and said:
"Everyone has worked hard. While you're all here, I have something to announce."

Cohen's expression turned slightly serious and he glanced behind him.

Soon a graceful figure appeared at the door.

Several people followed Cohen's gaze and their eyes fixed on the face of an exquisite woman.

They were all shocked.

Grace met Mavis and quickly recognized her identity:

“Performer?

Why did you come back again? "

Mavis smiled gently, bowed to the other party, and said:

"Hello again, Your Highness the Princess."

Cohen then said:

"Come, everyone, welcome our new member, Miss [Intelligence Officer] Mephis Tinuville."

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone's face showed more or less astonishment.

There was a silent silence.

After a long while, Grace let out a laugh that made Cohen feel uncomfortable, and said in a deliberately exaggerated tone:
"Girls, we're going to have another sister in the future.

Well, the peak of the ninth level... No, it's already half a step to legend.

Tsk tsk, Captain, why do I feel like you are more like a pure succubus than I am?
This skill of hooking up with beautiful women really amazes me.

I can bring one back every time I go out. At this rate, I'm afraid our City Lord's Mansion living area will have to be expanded again!"

Cohen's face was dark, he coughed twice and said:

"Ms. Mephis joined our team sincerely. Please don't harbor any grudges against her because of her previous stance and actions.

We are all family from now on, let’s get to know each other.”

Cohen introduced the team members to Mavis one by one.

The gentle and charming Nephthys, the cute and lovely Freya, the bright and dignified Asuna, the picturesque Windsordale, and the graceful Grace.

Mavis's eyes suddenly turned deep, and he said quietly:

"Captain, your team's looks alone are enough to dominate the continent!"
