Daily News: Insect Girls' Heavy Dependence
Chapter 22 Honesty and Integrity
Goldie naturally understood what Richard was worried about.
However, she still believed that this guy was playing the victim, trying to appear weak...
Is he still not going to tell himself the truth? What's his trump card? Why is he still putting on an act?
Even if it was because I attracted the Silverwing Hunter Bugs and destroyed his camp... I gave him all the Dream Bugs... Shouldn't I have paid back by now?
Fine, as long as he gives me enough essence insect fluid, I can do whatever he wants... it's none of my business.
Richard now feels a little regretful...
Because this time when I came to the Duke's mansion, there was no green tea broth to drink.
He was just about to complain to Gove.
Yekalin came in with a dark expression.
The temperature in the reception hall immediately dropped several degrees.
Richard visited the Duke's mansion a total of three times.
In Yekaterin's memory, it always happened while she was sleeping... Richard would come and wake her up...
Let it go the first time, since he was genuinely trying to do business.
Let it go the second time, since he was the one who reported him to me.
This is the third time I can't stand it!
The first two times were at least during the day, so I could explain it away as me oversleeping!
This third time was obviously in the middle of the night, right?
And this guy disappeared during the day!?
The main thing is!
They sent someone to find Ge Luoluo, only to be met with a cold shoulder...!
Yekalin grew angrier the more she thought about it.
However, she wouldn't say it out loud.
But after all, she was just a noble lady, and her self-cultivation skills weren't quite up to par.
Through the suffocating feeling that filled the reception hall,
Richard was quite perceptive and sensed the noblewoman's emotions.
In this situation, you definitely can't speak up yourself.
When faced with an angry woman, she will argue with you no matter what you say.
Govye sensed Richard's gaze.
"Please sit down, Miss Yekaterin."
Yekaterin naturally knew about Govi's background.
She was somewhat surprised to find that the Papal knight was able to sit in the worm-tooth chair.
After all, the Papal Knights must have worms inside them, unlike that imposter Richard...
For a powerful individual with the potential of a fourth-order complete form.
Yekaterin will give herself respect.
She pulled over the chair with the cavities and sat down, but did not face Goldie.
He was still staring intently at Richard.
Yekalin knew that Govi was just a figurehead he had brought in to bolster his courage.
No matter how the conversation goes, it always ends up talking about her and Richard.
There's no need to waste time with the Papal knights.
I have limited energy and prefer a direct approach to the game.
And I was really sleepy.
"Just tell me directly, what do you want from me?"
Govi wanted to answer...
But Yekaterin didn't give her a chance to speak:
"You said... don't trouble the Papal knights."
Richard had already prepared his words.
"A Tier 4 fully evolved insect beast, the Silverwing Insect Hunter, will be coming to Stormwind City tomorrow."
This guy speaks his mind directly.
Govi was taken aback: Yekaterin was already annoyed...
Govy obviously didn't know that sometimes leaving room for imagination... smart people will fill in the gaps in their own minds!
"You went out to gather intelligence during the day?" Yekalin frowned in thought.
Richard nodded, his expression blank.
Yekaterin: Oh, I see? No wonder he had an injury on his neck...
This noble lady really did imagine the reason for Richard's disappearance!
I just don't know, is she afraid of not getting the essence insect filtrate...?
Or is it just feigned concern born of aristocratic etiquette...
In short, she was concerned about Richard with his crooked neck.
He cast a concerned glance his way.
Although it lasted only a short time, it was still captured by Goldie and Richard...
Govy: This works too?
Richard did not reply immediately.
He was trying not to laugh...
Trying his best to calm himself down, he tilted his head and spoke.
"I escaped from the Silverwing Hunter Insects... I can help you set up city defenses. If you don't trust me, you can use... a lie detector insect."
"No……"
Yekalin answered very calmly.
Then, from under the ten-meter-long table covered in insect armor,
Take out a small piece of bamboo?
It's not bamboo...
Because its texture is as warm and smooth as jade.
Four slender branches swayed slightly...
There were also two bamboo leaves, one green and one white...
Govy was shocked:
This is……?
A stick insect as white as jade...?!
The Blue-White Lie Detector!
Four branches... and it's a fourth-order complete form!
It has a very high chance of screaming if anyone around it is lying!
Yekalin actually has this kind of insect?
Do not!
Nothing to be surprised about!
This is the Duke's mansion in the North... it's no wonder it has such a rich history!
Gove launched into a brainstorming session...
This papal knight had always had little contact with the nobility. She was unaware of the intricacies and complexities among them.
But Richard possesses the memories of an heir to a noble family title...
He was certainly aware of the methods commonly used by the nobles of the Kingdom of Kiel.
So he visited the Duke's residence three times.
He has never told a lie!
It was to guard against Yekaterin.
There might be insects that can detect lies.
After all, even the Charlemagne family has this type of insect...
The Duke of the North should not be absent!
"I've shown my sincerity as an ally, now it's your turn..."
Yekalin placed the blue-white lie detector on the long table.
Her delicate hands gently caressed the two bamboo leaf wings...
Then, with fingernails even smoother than jade, she gently tapped its jade-like body...
It makes a crisp, clicking sound...
She was waiting for Richard to confess.
Richard spoke expressionlessly:
"I am not from the August family of the inner world. I am the eldest son of the Charlemagne family..."
Yekalin had guessed this before, but she still nodded with satisfaction: "Go on."
"The information I gave you about the Essence Insect Fluid is completely true. I only withheld the crucial details because I needed to complete the deal with you."
Yekalin stared at the bluish-white lie detector bug, but the bug did not move at all.
A slight smile appeared on her lips...
Richard continued.
"The Silverwing Swarm Insects attacked my camp, which is why my pioneering team suffered heavy losses. Only seventy men have returned so far..."
"My pioneers have no interest in, nor will they cause trouble in the city... I'm willing to help you set up the city's defenses because I also want to kill the Silverwing Hunter Bugs."
The lie detector bug showed no reaction.
Yekaterin's brow finally relaxed.
Although I knew Richard was definitely hiding something.
But none of that matters!
Implanting the blood-killing spider queen worm makes me very sleepy.
Besides, I had no interest in prying into other people's privacy... It was enough to confirm that he posed no threat to Stormwind!
Yekalin placed the blue-white lie detector beetle back under the long table of insect beetles...
Sit up straight.
He blinked hard.
"Did you hear me? You will proceed with the defenses as ordered by Young Master Richard..."
"I hope that when I wake up, I'll see that insect's head in the reception area..."
As soon as Yekalin finished speaking...
Above the hollow design of the reception hall.
One by one, knights jumped down...
The jet-black insect shell is engraved with bright silver hurricane patterns.
The private knights kept by the Duke of the North
Storm Knight Sequence.
Twenty mature Tier 3 beings...
