Elizabeth's brain finally started functioning again after a full ten breaths of malfunction.

She looked at Lin Zhen, her sapphire-like eyes filled with an indescribable, extreme shock and fervor!

Three Corpse Brain God Pill?

Putting aside whether such a miraculous poison actually exists in this world, the plan itself is simply... brilliant!

She could almost immediately picture the look of "sympathy," "pity," and "smugness" that Harrington, that arrogant fool, would have on his face when he heard about her "tragic" experience!

He will definitely see himself as the perfect pawn to be used!

He will definitely make all sorts of promises and paint all sorts of grand schemes for himself without hesitation!

He would confidently assure himself that as long as he cooperated with him from the inside, he could help him snatch the antidote from that "evil" Eastern prince and regain his freedom!

He himself could obtain his "Pirate Queen," who was both beautiful and possessed a powerful fleet, without shedding a drop of blood!

At the same time, he can also get rid of Lin Zhen, who is both an eyesore and a threat in his eyes, as a "love rival"!

This is a win-win-win situation, a fantastic opportunity that yields huge profits!

He has no reason to refuse!

"Oh my God..."

Elizabeth couldn't help but let out a groan filled with amazement and adoration.

Looking at Lin Zhen's handsome face, which was always full of confidence and calculation, she felt a sense of awe for him from the depths of her soul, almost like that of a god!

She used to think that she was already one of the world's top players at manipulating people's hearts.

But compared to this peerless devil in front of me, who always manages to manipulate the ugliest and most despicable greed and desires in human nature, I am utterly awed.

Her so-called "scheming" and "methods" are like a kindergarten child competing with a top psychology professor to see who understands people better.

They're not even in the same league!

"How is it, Admiral Elizabeth?"

Looking at her as if she had seen a ghost, Lin Zhen revealed a playful smile.

Are you satisfied with this script?

"Satisfied! Very satisfied!"

Upon hearing this, Elizabeth immediately nodded frantically, like a chick pecking at rice.

Her beautiful face was filled with excitement and anticipation for the upcoming hunting game, a game full of thrills and challenges!

"Your Highness, just you wait and see!"

She licked her scarlet lips, and a bloodthirsty light gleamed in her blue eyes.

"I guarantee that within three days that arrogant idiot will be completely obedient and devoted to me!"

“I want him to tell me all his plans in detail.”

"I also want him to willingly reveal all the secrets of his 'First Fortress in the East' to me without reservation!"

"very good."

Lin Zhen nodded in satisfaction.

He knew that he had made the right move again.

……

Early the next morning.

A chance encounter unfolded as scheduled in the exotic gardens of the Tulip Manor.

Governor Harrington, as usual, was taking a leisurely stroll in his back garden.

His face wore a perfectly timed, triumphant smile, befitting a victor.

He was still savoring the memory of that foolish Eastern queen from last night, how she was filled with "surprise" and "adoration" under his "money offensive" and "gentlemanly manners".

He knew that the beautiful "fat sheep" had completely fallen into the sweetest trap he had woven.

He had even begun to fantasize about the immense wealth and glory he would gain after completely conquering that woman.

However, just as he was immersed in his beautiful fantasy and unable to extricate himself...

A figure, equally beautiful yet exuding wildness and allure, suddenly appeared before him.

It was Elizabeth.

Today, she specially changed into a tight-fitting long dress made of the finest red silk.

The fiery color made her already fair skin appear even more delicate and flawless.

The tight-fitting design perfectly accentuated her explosive and powerful figure.

She stood quietly before the cluster of brightly blooming red roses.

She is more beautiful than the flowers.

The scene was as beautiful as a masterpiece painted by a top-notch oil painter.

"Oh? Isn't this our beautiful Admiral Elizabeth?"

The moment Governor Harrington saw Elizabeth, a glint of amazement and greed flashed in his grey eyes.

He strode up to Elizabeth, a smile on his face that he thought was full of "gentlemanly manners."

"I never expected to meet such a beautiful and charming lady as you here."

“This is truly the best gift I’ve received today.”

As he spoke, he reached out his hand as if to give a standard hand-kissing gesture.

However, Elizabeth seemed not to see it at all, completely ignoring his awkwardly suspended hand.

She simply turned her head, looked at him with a gaze filled with "complexity" and "melancholy," and then sighed softly.

"Your Excellency, you flatter me."

Her voice carried a perfectly balanced sense of "aloofness" and "melancholy".

"In front of a man like you who truly holds power, I am nothing more than a pitiful person who cannot even control his own destiny."

Her words, full of self-deprecation and implication, instantly stirred up Governor Harrington's already calculating mind.

He knew the fish had taken the bait.

"Oh? Admiral Elizabeth, what do you mean by that?"

His face showed an expression full of "concern" and "confusion".

"With your beauty and talent, who in the world can control your destiny?"

"Ha ha……"

Upon hearing this, Elizabeth let out a cold laugh filled with bitterness and self-mockery.

She turned her head and glanced at the main building of the Tulip Manor, which looked incredibly luxurious but was actually like a giant prison, not far away.

A complex light, filled with resentment and unwillingness, flashed in those blue eyes.

"Your Excellency, you are unaware of the following."

Her voice became increasingly "lonely" and "helpless".

"Don't be fooled by our prince's docile demeanor in front of the princess."

"But in reality, he was a man more terrifying and more vicious than the devil!"

"He used a unique and most vicious medicine from our Kunlun Mountains to control me and all the soldiers who followed him."

"It forces us to obey him and serve him like slaves."

"Otherwise, we will experience the agony of ten thousand insects gnawing at our hearts, a pain a hundred times worse than death!"

As she spoke, she squeezed out a few glistening tears at just the right moment.

The governor felt a pang of pity and secret delight at the sight of that "miserable" and "helpless" appearance.

He knew his chance to shine had come!

"What?! Such a vicious thing has actually happened!"

His face immediately showed an expression full of "shock" and "anger".

He grabbed Elizabeth's cold little hand and said firmly in a tone full of "justice" and "protectiveness":

"Admiral Elizabeth, please rest assured!"

"With me, Harrington, here, I will never let you suffer any more injustice!"

"Tell me, what kind of poison is it? And what kind of antidote is needed?"

"If you just tell me, I will use all the resources of the East India Company to find the antidote and free you!"

His heartfelt and responsible declaration instantly brought a glimmer of emotion and hope to Elizabeth's tearful blue eyes.

She looked at Harrington, whose face was full of sincerity and concern, her voice carrying a just-right hint of choking and dependence.

"Governor...you...you really are willing to help me?"
