Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Although Nie Bing showed trust, she was still acting.

And since she was acting, Xiao Ce naturally played along...

Sean (Xiao Ce) pretended to be listening attentively.

After listening to Nie Bing finish speaking, Xiao En (Xiao Ce) said to her, "President, if that's the case, then we can change locations..."

Nie Bing nodded to Sean (Xiao Ce): "Then where do you think would be a better place to go?"

After a moment's thought, Sean (Xiao Ce) said, "Actually, the place where the city lords of Lingas City lived before was indeed quite good... both geographically and from a future perspective..."

After hearing Xiao En's (Xiao Ce's) words, Nie Bing nodded without hesitation: "Okay, Xiao Ce will listen to you..."

Xiao Ce felt quite uncomfortable seeing Nie Bing like this.

"President, are you sure you don't want to go take another look? Or go and investigate other options..."

After listening to Xiao En's (Xiao Ce's) words, Nie Bing smiled and shook her head, then said, "No need, is there anything else to investigate? Like I said, I've always been one to trust those I don't trust..."

Upon hearing Nie Bing's words, Sean (Xiao Ce) immediately showed a touching expression.

Xiao Ce finally understood; she wasn't necessarily sure she believed in metaphysics, feng shui, and all that...

She said those things purely to make conversation...

It was all to gain his favor.

...

The carriage wheels rolled over the cobblestones of the empty streets of Lingas, making a monotonous "clattering" sound that was particularly jarring in the overly quiet city.

Viktor King rode behind the carriage on horseback, his usually arrogant face tense, his gaze occasionally sweeping across the carriage window.

Watching the chairman and Sean Aurelius chatting happily, even exuding an intimate feeling of conspiring together, Victor felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet.

The occasional laughter and chatter coming from inside the carriage made Viktor King feel very uneasy...

However, he knew very well that Sean Aurelius had already gained Nie Bing's approval and trust.

Therefore, no matter what, if one wants to gain a foothold in the Illuminati in the future, one still needs to maintain a friendly relationship with Sean (Xiao Ce).

Although he was somewhat reluctant, fortunately, Sean (Xiao Ce) had previously extended an olive branch to him...

Just then, the carriage arrived at the city lord's mansion.

The guards quickly began to surround the entire city lord's mansion, layer upon layer.

Upon seeing this, Nie Bing frowned slightly, and then Victor King said, "You can't even catch a ghost in this Lingas City, so what are you doing setting up so many defenses here?"

Seeing Nie Bing's slightly questioning tone, Victor King said awkwardly, "This is a special time... President, nothing is more important than your safety."

Nie Bing flicked her sleeve and said, "My safety is protected by Iron Man, so you can continue as before. If word gets out that this scene, won't we be laughed at? People will think that we, the prestigious Guangzhao Society, are so terrified by these rioters that we did this..."

"Everything is normal..."

Nie Bing was about to speak when she turned to Victor King and said, "Alright, after Mr. Sean and I finish our business, he can arrange things for you..."

Admittedly, Victor King was already somewhat prepared, but he never expected that Sean (Xiao Ce) would be the one to make the arrangements for him.

After hearing Nie Bing's words, Victor King's expression became even more awkward, and he didn't respond.

Seeing this, Nie Bing said coldly, "What's wrong, Viktor King? Is there a problem?"

After being asked this question in a low voice by Nie Bing, Victor King replied, "No...reporting to the Chairman, no...no problem. I'll follow Mr. Sean Aurelius's instructions...let him arrange things for me...no problem..."

Nie Bing nodded, then said to Victor King, "I know you're definitely resentful. But don't be resentful yet. In the future, not only you, but even I will have to listen to Mr. Sean... You'll find out why..."

Upon hearing Nie Bing's words, Xiao Ce waved his hands frantically, then said, "No, no, no... I wouldn't dare... Guild Master, I can't accept such a responsibility..."

Seeing Xiao Ce say this, Nie Bing still had a very serious expression on her face.

He then turned to Sean (Xiao Ce) and said, "Mr. Sean, I'm not trying to flatter you... I genuinely feel this way... We need a capable strategist, and you are the person I've been looking for..."

Before Viktor King could speak, Nie Bing said to him, "Viktor King, from now on, whatever Xiao Ce says will be my decision, understand?"

After hearing Nie Bing's words, Victor King nodded and then said to Nie Bing, "President, I understand..."

After Nie Bing finished speaking, she nodded and then said nothing more.

Xiao Ce was simply instructed to follow, and then the two Iron Men followed behind.

This city lord's mansion was much smaller than Sun Fortress, so after they entered...

"Mr. Sean, let me just explain to you directly how to use this Iron Man..."

Seeing Nie Bing's words, Xiao Ce nodded and then said, "President, are you really going to give him to me?"

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Nie Bing nodded: "Of course, you saw it too. If it were just me saying it, it wouldn't be of much use. Everyone understands what it means that Iron Man will be following you from now on... Besides, you'll be my strategist from now on, and what I said to Viktor King just now was truly what I felt..."

Xiao Ce heard that Nie Bing was still using this tactic, and it was clear that Nie Bing thought that this tactic would work with Xiao Ce.

Because Xiao Ce's performance was so convincing, he looked at Nie Bing with a deeply moved expression.

And he displayed an expression that said, "A scholar would die for one who understands him."

Therefore, Nie Bing felt that he was very receptive to this approach.

"President, don't worry. Just watch my performance, and I'll let everyone know... that your decision was right..."

Seeing Xiao Ce's display of loyalty, Nie Bing's smile widened. These tactics were simply copied from the methods Xiao Ce had used to win people's hearts when he was in the Xiao Kingdom...

Nie Bing sometimes couldn't help but admire Xiao Ce, especially after seeing Xiao En's (Xiao Ce) tearful gratitude towards him. She felt that Xiao Ce's tactics were indeed very useful.

Nie Bing didn't continue; instead, she began teaching Xiao Ce how to use the Iron Man robot.

This Iron Man robot is not complicated.

Nie Bing directly pressed the iron robot's chest and made it take off its clothes.

After pressing it, a groove appeared, and there was a place to insert the key in the groove.

After inserting the key, a small black and white screen appeared, displaying a progress bar indicating that it was resetting.

After witnessing this, Xiao Ce was certain that the robot was lagging behind the void...
