Section 529 Negotiations
When the old mage heard what Lao Xie said, his face immediately turned red, and then he could only nod helplessly and said: "Oh, I accidentally asked that **** to walk away!"
"Huh?" Lan Fake immediately asked curiously: "Logically speaking, with the strength of you and the 12 Golden Gods and Monsters Lord, you shouldn't let him run away?"
"You don't know!" The old mage couldn't help complaining: "That **** targeted me specifically. He carried countless anti-lightning items with him. I was 100% struck by lightning, and more than 90% of them were hit by lightning. The power was absorbed by those magic resistance equipment, so how could I kill a sword master? I attacked with all my might, and finally broke all his equipment and broke one of his arms, but this At that time, I was almost exhausted, and my magic power was almost exhausted, but that **** escaped with a pair of legendary acceleration shoes. I used my last strength to chase him all the way to the palace, but I was so angry! Me!" the old mage said, slamming the table, obviously very angry.
No one expected that the Shadow Sword Master would be so afraid of the old mage. You must know that although the anti-magic equipment can resist magic to a certain extent, the cost of this resistance is too great and is completely disproportionate to the effort. Because there are so many types of magic, it is difficult to resist them all. Under normal circumstances, warriors will not wear such expensive anti-magic equipment that cannot improve their combat effectiveness. After all, they rarely encounter mage-type enemies. Only when they know in advance that they are going to fight a certain mage, they will choose the corresponding resistance equipment.
There are the most fire and ice resistance equipment on the market. After all, mages have the most and the most terrifying equipment with these two types. Correspondingly, lightning-resistant equipment is the rarest, because there are not many lightning-type mages in the entire continent, and some are made to resist the few lightning-type monsters.
So, in this case. The Shadow Sword Master was able to collect so much anti-lightning equipment, which was naturally beyond the old mage's expectation.
Now that things have come to this, Lao Xie has no other solution. He can’t just go into the palace to rebel, right? Although he has this strength, he still has to worry about the old mage's feelings. So he comforted him: "Forget it, I'll give him an advantage this time. Just settle the score with him when we meet next time!"
"Next time?" The old mage shook his head helplessly and said: "This time it's enough to kill him in one go, but if you can't kill him, it will be difficult to kill him again! Because the emperor will definitely come forward to intercede on his behalf. I have to give your Majesty some face!"
"Haha, he is just disabled and can't cause much trouble, so don't worry about it. However, the emperor should have something in our hands this time, right?" Lao Xie said suddenly.
"The handle? What handle?" the old mage asked in confusion.
"Of course it's about the Shadow Assassins!" Lao Xie sneered: "I found a confidential document in the Shadow Sword Master's room, which records all the assassination missions in the decades since their establishment. Hehe. Do you know? There are three figures of important people killed by them, including nobles from more than a dozen countries, and even people from the Light Empire and the Orcs."
"Ah!" The old mage was suddenly shocked and said: "Are they crazy? How can this be done?"
"Obviously, it's not the shadow assassin who's crazy, it's the emperor who's crazy!" Lao Xie shrugged: "But. Actually, if you think about it carefully, it's no wonder he's so crazy. A saint-level assassin, he's actually There are as many as 5. If such a few super masters carry out assassinations, it will be impossible to find any flaws. Not only is the success rate extremely high, but there is almost no possibility of being detected. It is precisely because of this that the emperor will be unscrupulous. The earth dispatches shadow assassins."
"Alas, but you didn't find the evidence in the end?" The old mage shook his head helplessly, and then said: "What are you going to do with those documents?"
"Just make a deal with the emperor!" Lao Xie said proudly.
"Trade? Are you obviously blackmailing me?" the old mage said with a bitter smile.
"Hey, it's almost the same!" Lao Xie said nonchalantly: "Who told me that his control fell into my hands? If I don't give him a good blow, how can I be worthy of myself?"
"Then what do you want to force His Majesty to do?" The old mage frowned and said, "I'm warning you. Don't go too far?"
"It won't be too much. I just asked him to handle the assassination of Catherine fairly and quickly!" The old evil man smiled and said, "How about it? Isn't that too much?"
"Isn't this too much?" Upon hearing this, the old mage immediately shook his head with a wry smile, and then said: "Forget it, let you go. I just hope you can save some face for him!" After saying that, the old mage Then he turned around and left. He obviously didn't want to see the emperor's embarrassment.
You know, Lao Xie's request seems reasonable. But it can be done in practice. That's just like slapping the emperor! Because all the nobles in the imperial capital knew that the emperor wanted to remove Catherine's military power this time. That's why he threw Catherine back aggressively, and at the same time let the wind out, saying that Catherine harming the nobles was not justified by nature and she needed to reflect on it. But now that Lao Xie is forcing him to deal with it fairly, he has to take back all the things he said before. As an emperor, it is really embarrassing to be forced by his ministers to go back on his word! It is estimated that the emperor will be depressed to death!
But Lao Xie obviously wouldn't care about this. In the afternoon of that day, the emperor personally came to the Magic Tower to visit the old mage, obviously to apologize.
The old mage was unwilling to intimidate the emperor, but he was also embarrassed to stop Lao Xie who was standing to reason, so he simply hid away and let Lao Xie have an interview with the emperor.
Lao Xie was not polite and started negotiating with the emperor directly in the living room. Now Lao Xie is extremely angry with the emperor, so he is too lazy to play those hypocritical polite words with the emperor. I saw him sitting in front of the carefree emperor, and then said coldly, "Your Majesty, I am a rough man and I don't know how to play in the virtual world. Let's get straight to the point, shall we?"
Obviously the emperor couldn't stand Lao Xie's unreasonableness, so he immediately darkened his face and said angrily: "You are not qualified to talk to me yet. Where is Teacher Stephen? I want to see him!"
"The old man has been chasing the Shadow Sword Master all night, and he is almost dead from exhaustion. Now he has rested. Moreover, this incident has completely broken his heart, and he is unwilling to talk to you. That's why I am authorized to represent you. Stephen family!" Lao Xie said calmly: "Can we talk now?"
"Huh, no!" The emperor sneered and stood up and said, "Since the teacher is tired, I can come back another day!"
"Very good!" Lao Xie was not in a hurry and said directly: "Then please come back! But there is one thing I have to remind Your Majesty!"
The emperor's body that had just turned stopped again and said hurriedly, "What's the matter?"
"In three days at most, the list of hundreds of nobles assassinated by the Shadow Assassin will spread throughout the continent!" Lao Xie sneered, "At that time, I will also give you a free copy!"
"You~" The emperor suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly turned around again, pointed at Lao Xie's nose and said angrily: "Are you threatening me?"
"No, no, no!" Lao Xie sneered, "I'm just stating a fact. If I can't get an explanation, then I'll come up with an approach!"
"You, what do you want to say?" the emperor asked hurriedly.
"Why was Catherine assassinated?" Lao Xie said angrily: "Isn't she the eldest princess? Didn't she make any contribution to the country and the royal family?"
"Of course she is the eldest princess, and she does have merit!" The emperor could only say helplessly: "But this assassination matter has nothing to do with me! Catherine is also my daughter after all, how could I bear to kill myself? Children?"
"So, you are also an innocent victim?" Lao Xie sneered.
"Yes, I am indeed a victim!" When the emperor said this, he remembered that the shadow assassin organization he had cultivated with tens of millions of gold coins was completely wiped out. He felt so aggrieved that he wanted to cry!
"Since it has nothing to do with you and you are also a victim, why don't you severely punish the murderer and why do you still protect the person who wants to kill your daughter?" Lao Xie asked sternly.
"This~" The emperor rubbed his hands helplessly and said: "Stephen, you are also a smart man, you should know my difficulties. Why do you have to force me?"
"No, I'm not forcing you, you've been forcing me!" Lao Xie sneered: "Huh, didn't you just say that I'm not qualified to talk to you at all?"
"Okay, I was wrong, okay?" the emperor said extremely depressed. His mood at this time was beyond description. In terms of official status, he was the emperor, and Lao Xie was just a minister; in terms of private status, he was the father-in-law, and Lao Xie was just the son-in-law. No matter how you look at him, he is the boss, but he is the one who talks down to you. How can the arrogant emperor accept this?
After hearing this, Lao Xie immediately pretended to say, "Well, just know that you are wrong!" His posture was just like a grandfather teaching his third grandson. The emperor was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
But the handle was in Lao Xie's hands, and the emperor did not dare to get angry. He could only hold back his anger and said with a smile: "Little Stephen, you are also my daughter's fiancé after all. We are a family, right? So? You can't hurt me?"
"Of course, even for Catherine's sake, I can't harm you!" Lao Xie nodded immediately.
"That's good, that's good!" The emperor said hurriedly: "Then can you destroy that list?"
"The principle is okay!" Lao Xie suddenly changed his tone and said: "But what?"
"But what?" The emperor said quickly: "If you have any conditions, you can ask for them, and I will agree to them!"
"Haha, you're welcome then!" Lao Xie then said proudly: "First of all, since Catherine was wrongfully accused, is it necessary for her to continue to be under house arrest?"
"Of course it's not necessary, I will immediately order the restoration of her freedom!" the emperor said hurriedly.
"I want the official to be reinstated!" Lao Xie suddenly said coldly.
