I'm also trying to survive today [Western Fantasy]
Chapter 28 Cooperation
After taking Greenton and the others for a lap on the sea and experiencing the speed of the ghost ship, Julian returned to Skull Island.
The control of the ghost ship is in the hands of Julian, and he is not worried that these people will rebel on the ship.
He came to the agreed place and waited for a while, and soon saw Luke.
Luke nodded to him, and then led him to a remote cave. The cave was built as a temporary residence. There were five people in it. Except for Ryan and the middle-aged man who was good at makeup, there were three a man.
Julian raised his eyebrows and looked at the three people in surprise. They were the housekeepers and guards that he saw at the market that day. That's all. Why did they look at him so excitedly?
He looked at Luke suspiciously, and Luke pointed to the three people: "Sidney, Parry, Roger." The old man, Guard A, and Guard B greeted him respectively, Julian nodded and smiled, and Luke said: "They are your partners."
Julian's mind turned quickly, and he immediately thought of the spoiled young master. He had guessed that young master's pills at the time, but he didn't expect him to have something to do with him after he was finished.
"Let me briefly introduce the task to you." Luke motioned Julian to sit down: "The Duke of Radcliffe in the capital is about to die. As the Duke of the Kingdom, his title involves many things and various rights. In short, this is a very complicated matter. Your task is to pretend to be his grandson and strive to inherit the title as much as possible. If you can’t, then at least you can’t let heirs who are close to the church and nobles succeed.”
After speaking, Luke looked at Julian quietly, as if giving him room to think.
Julian: ...
You wait!Julian looked at him with dead fish eyes. Although you are my boss, I will still turn my face if you are so perfunctory!
What a complicated thing, you just ignored all the background information?
Also, what does it mean to strive to inherit the title as much as possible, and you don't have much confidence in me, do you... Of course, I admit that I am new here, and I don't know much about your routines. The chances of inheriting the title may not be very high, but you You can't remember to fool me like this, can you?
Julian is not a fool, looking for a backer for himself is looking for a backer, but if this backer treats him as cannon fodder to fool him, then I'm sorry...he should run away as soon as possible and be his pirate!
He thought that the Maggie Kingdom applied for the title because it was convenient to fulfill the original wish and take care of the small mountain village, but if the Maggie Kingdom was so unfriendly to him, then he could find a way to take care of it as if he had made money as a pirate.
Looking at Julian's dead fish eyes, Luke raised his eyebrows: "What? What's the problem?"
Julian didn't speak, just looked at him so quietly, after a while, Luke suddenly laughed: "Sidney will tell you the rest of the detailed information, if you agree, then from now on, he It is your housekeeper, and you are the illegitimate son of Duke Radcliffe's favorite youngest son. When your father had an accident, your mother fled the capital with you as a baby and lived in seclusion in a small city. Your mother died when you were 13 and Sidney has been looking after you ever since."
Luke raised his chin towards Sidney: "No one in the capital has ever seen you... so you don't have to worry that someone will recognize you, um... Actually the Duke's house is very chaotic now, and many people have identities The problem, this is something you need to pay attention to, if you seize the opportunity to trap those people, don’t let it go, remember, the fewer your competitors, the greater your chances of being in the top position.”
Julian continued silent.
Luke looked at him for a while, and said helplessly, "What else do you want?"
Julian held out a hand, thumb and forefinger squeezed together and twisted. "What about the benefits? My mission is very dangerous, it's fine if you don't provide all kinds of information, but you don't even give benefits?"
Luke put away the smile on his face, and tapped on the table one after another.
The atmosphere in the cave was changing slowly, and each knock seemed to hit Julian's heart, bringing him great pressure.
However, Julian was fearless, and just looked at Luke quietly, and finally, Luke smiled suddenly: "As long as you can complete the task, I can ask His Majesty the King to make you a baron and get a corresponding territory. "
"Wait..." Julian was a little confused: "Didn't you say that you want me to be the heir of the Duke? Why do you still want to be a baron?"
Luke looked at him speechlessly, and said after a while: "His Majesty the King wants to take back the rights of the Duke, of course, he must pass certain opportunities, for example...a certain Duke took the initiative to return the rights in his hands to His Majesty."
Julian: ...
The corner of his mouth twitched. Obviously, if he succeeds in inheriting the title, then the duke who returned the rights must be himself... However, Julian felt that the other party must have someone behind him, and his chance of actually obtaining the title is not very high.
To put it more clearly, he was the target Luke and the others pushed out, and the one who could really inherit the title must be someone hidden in the dark.
Of course, Luke and the others wouldn't try to entrap him. After all, the target is on the bright side. Only when the target exists can the hidden person be covered up. If the target arrives, the hidden person will definitely not be able to hide.
Julian pondered for a while and nodded in agreement: "I can complete the task, but how can you ensure my life?" He looked at Luke meaningfully: "You just said that if you have the opportunity to attack others Don't hesitate, does that mean that others will not hesitate to attack me?"
"Don't worry about this." Luke smiled: "For a long time, your life will be guaranteed. Don't forget, it's the capital of the king. No matter what, no one dares to be king again." Assassinate a duke's possible heir. Leave the secret battle to us, we only need you to be our bargaining chip in the open."
Julian also knew that this kind of thing must be very dangerous, but as the saying goes, if you really want to complete this task, you can leave a little impression on His Majesty, and that's enough!
He looked at Luke and said with a smile, "Should I prepare some protection for me, so that if I'm not careful, people die before completing the task?"
Luke felt that Julian would really pick the time to rip off, but now that the mission needed him, he had to take out a gold coin with a heartache on his face: "This gold coin enchanted with the 'random teleportation' skill can still be used three times, I think it is enough It's your life."
"Thanks!" Julian put the gold coin into his pocket unceremoniously, and the corners of Luke's mouth twitched at the look of surprise.
"That's fine, since you have agreed, let's go tomorrow, you and Sidney and the others."
Julian shook his head: "No, I'm going with my crew, let's meet somewhere."
Luke's eyes sharpened all of a sudden, and Julian waved his hand at him: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to run away, it's just that my crew members finally got together, I can't let them just stay here like this, I'll take them first Let them go once and then let them move freely."
Luke nodded and said expressionlessly: "In this case, you can take Sidney and the others to board the boat together."
Julian knew that Luke was definitely worried about him, and thinking that he really needed to learn more about that young master's habits from Sidney and the others, he nodded in agreement.
Before leaving, Luke emphasized: "We have received news that some of the Duke's candidate heirs are trying to collude with the evil god. If you find traces of such people, don't hesitate to kill them if you can. Let us know immediately."
"For this kind of people, you don't need to worry about the unspoken rules of high society?" Julian was surprised. Before Luke said that their heirs are unlikely to be in danger, why is it different when it comes to cultivators?
Luke turned his head and looked at him seriously: "The reason why the evil god is called the evil god is because he is chaotic and evil. The devil still has the possibility of communication, but the followers of the evil god are all lunatics who want to destroy the world. At least in Ma In the Kingdom of Ji, every follower of the evil gods will be punished."
Julian nodded to indicate that he understood, and then Luke left Shandong with Ren and the middle-aged man.
Sidney and the two guards followed Julian, and he led the three back to the Crimson.
After boarding the boat, he was not polite, and directly took out three contracts and handed them over to the three of them. Either sign the contract to keep it a secret, or just leave!
The three of Sidney looked confused: Are we the one that agreed?
Julian said: Hehe, it is true that we are cooperating now, but the secret of the ghost ship cannot be revealed anyway.To be honest, Julian was actually quite surprised why Luke had such a good attitude towards him.
To put it bluntly, his demon warlock profession is definitely something that everyone shouts and beats. He believes that Luke is very tolerant to aliens, but no matter how he is, he is also a person who has something to do with demons, so it is not easy to trust him. Right?
In fact, Julian had forgotten that most of the things he showed on the pirate ship were for the one-eyed dragon, but all of this fell into Ryan's eyes.
Once, Renn sneered at his performance. As a senior spy, acting skills are definitely his strengths, and Julian's performance is full of loopholes for him. Don't dare to take risks, let's break through his magic stick in minutes, okay?
Ren felt that Julian's act of describing himself as a devil believer was completely self-protection, so he said the same thing when he reported to his boss. Luke never thought that he really made a contract with the devil.
Of course, this is also Luke's confidence in himself. He has seen people who cooperate with the devil, and all of them are full of the breath of hell. Their own malice can flow out of their gestures, not like Julian In this way, if you don't do anything at ordinary times, you can't see the slightest clue at all.
Because, Luke felt that Julian was probably lucky enough to get some kind of magical item, and this item could drive demon power to a limited extent.Otherwise it is difficult to explain why Julian was not polluted by the power of the demon.
(The father of the system just smiled and said nothing, hiding his achievements and fame...)
In this way, a beautiful misunderstanding led to such a result, but for both parties, such a result is a win-win situation!
