Release that Witch Chapter 1447: Unfulfilled promises

In the living room of Greycastle, Roland quietly looked at the old man in front of him.

He was in a wheelchair, with grey hair, sunken cheeks, and high wrinkles on his forehead. However, compared with his age, his pupils did not have much turbidity, and he still looked angry. The monocle on the tip of the nose and the black bow tie between the neck and neck further strengthened this feeling. While Roland is looking at him, he is also looking at Roland.

After a while, Roland broke the silence and smiled. "It is not easy to invite you from Dawn. Welcome to Greycastle new Kingdom Capital, Mr. Barry Lothar, all the hard work."

"It's my pleasure to be called by King of Greycastle ..." The other person bowed his head slightly, "I just don't know what Your Majesty has to tell me?"

"You have contributed a lot to Greycastle and you don't need to do anything more."

"Me?" He apparently looked unexpectedly. "Your Majesty, have you made something wrong?"

In general, the speed of thinking of people of this age will drop sharply, and they will be articulate and intermittent, but Barry not only answers the first time, but also controls the facial muscles to make a disguised look, which is enough Prove that his brain never stopped thinking. Compared with the irreversible aging of the body, his consciousness may better reflect his condition.

"I know you have concerns, but please rest assured that I have no malicious intentions for Black Money." Roland spreads both hands and said, "The message" god's envoy "passed to you is also part of Neverwinter. In fact, it is I asked them to send a message. "

Using the word Pasha, Barry was brought to Greycastle with the reason that the transformation ceremony had arrived. After the target was determined, someone was forced to bring it back to the castle. Although this method was slightly rough, the victory was straightforward.

"Your Majesty ... I don't quite understand what you mean ..."

"It's okay, I will say that -- is a very tortuous story until you understand it, but it has actually happened." Roland told the past of the ancient witch roughly, and also mentioned the God Punishment Army conversion ceremony The essence. The Soul Container can only collect the consciousness of the enchanted person. In other words, magicless can only become shell/exterior/body.

Becoming a body without self is in a sense also in line with ancient witch Yanshou's rhetoric. If Black Money is just an ordinary underground chamber of commerce, he would not care too much. However, in the battle against Devil Western Front Army, Black Money made a great contribution, not only assisting First Army to support the theater intelligence network of Wolf Heart and Eternal Winter, but also sent key intelligence many times, filling the witch investigation gap in red mist area.

Maybe Barry did not do this for the fate of mankind or to save fellow citizens, but this contribution is real. Roland does not believe that turning such an accomplished person into a puppet who has lost consciousness is a suitable reward, so he decided to meet with the other person in person.

After a long time, Barry Lothar slowly took off the reading glasses, his voice trembled slightly, "Do you mean, longevity is just a scam?"

Roland sighed, "At present, in order to remain immature on the basis of maintaining consciousness, you must be a demon. For humans, it is witch."

Even if he opened up the world of dreams, he cannot be sensed by the container of soul.

"But after taking these medicines, my body is really getting better --"

"Those potions can't be said to have no effect. It can increase the success rate of the ceremony by overdrawing vitality, but it can't be used endlessly." Roland interrupted his head, "Soon its side effects will appear, That's why I'm in a hurry to find you. "

Barry paused for a moment, "Do you mean, am I running out of time ..."

"Sorry." Roland regrets, "I can't make this promise perfect, I can only compensate it in other ways. Black Money has protected witch and contributed to War of Divine Will. If you have anything you want, you can Put it forward, this is also a deserved return. "

Nightingale once asked him why they did n’t let Pasha solve this problem by themselves. Being in the capacity of King is equivalent to transferring the consequences of this scam to Greycastle.

Her idea cannot be wrong, but Roland knows clearly. Since Greycastle has accepted Taqila witch in its entirety, you cannot just enjoy the benefits brought by them. It is also an obligation of "acceptance" to support them.

"..." Barry was silent for a long time. "Even if it is Dawn, can you handle it?"

"You should know, my influence in Kingdom of Dawn."

"Then I can rest assured." Unexpectedly, the other side did not despair or become hysterical, but showed a calm smile, "I want to live longer, I want to keep the children Black Money If the industry is --, if I die, other noble businessmen will never miss the opportunity to divide it up, and in the face of a sufficiently large interest, several lives are of little importance. If Your Majesty is willing to intervene, I think no one dares to act rashly, this Even more reliable than my personal longevity. In that case, what else can I complain about? "

Roland pondered for a while, "Are you sure this is what you want in return?"

"Your Majesty, can't ... not work?"

"It's not impossible." He paused, "I wonder if you have heard of the name Rainbow Stone?"

"Something I heard," Barry thought for a while, "It seems to be a new clothing line in your country, with a large scale, and some finished products are also sold to Dawn --. IMHO, in terms of style and design, it Far worse than us. "

Because the craftsmen Victor is looking for are of the Lothar Family family ... and he did not tell you that in Neverwinter City this kind of clothes is only one tenth of the price of other hand-knitted clothes. Roland coughed twice, "As far as I know, the founder behind this clothing company is called Victor Lothar, which is exactly your 4th child. In addition, the clothing company's income has so far exceeded 10,000 gold royal. With this talent, I I feel that even without Greycastle as the backer, he will not easily lose to those merchant families.

Ten thousand gold royals are by no means a small number. Neverwinter used to have only Chaos Drink to exceed this number. -- The reason is simple, not everyone needs a drink, but everyone has to dress. With the highly centralized population of Neverwinter, the scale of basic needs will only further expand. In the face of foreseeable profits from large-scale industrialization, the turnover of the underground chamber of commerce is not worth mentioning at all.

Only this time Barry was really surprised. "Your Majesty, are you saying ... is it true? Since he left Shining Light City, he has rarely contacted me ... I thought he was still making previous jewelry Do it ... "

"Victor is now at Neverwinter. It's not difficult to see him. It's better to verify it in person. But ... have to hurry up."

"Yes ... I know." Barry couldn't help but hold the wheels tightly, this action obviously cleared the idea of ​​bottom of heart expose. "Let me back, Your Majesty."

Roland nodded, preparing to ask personal guard to send him out, he suddenly said again, "You said that my time was running out ... Can you let me spend the last moment on that floating island? ? "

"..." Roland closed his eyes, "If you wish."

Nightingale only showed up after the door was closed, and whispered, "Strange ..."

"What's wrong?"

"His reaction was a bit strange at first, but it was not a lie, but magic power gave me a very vague feeling, not as calm as he did." Nightingale shrugged.

"So that's it," Roland thoughtfully.

"Do you know why?"

"Probably." He slowed his voice and tilted his head out of the window. "Longevity is always full of temptation. If the expectations fail, no one will accept it easily."

"But that's not lie." Nightingale focused.

"Because he knows that he can't change this result no matter what he does." Roland was a little bit emotional, "Since it can't be changed, then you must accept -- and his grievance against King of Greycastle. It is better to pretend to be open-minded to gain favor , Any unnecessary emotion will become a sunk cost, which is probably his idea. There are many people who understand this, but few can really do it ... This is where he is powerful. "

He understands that some of these big businessmen will be treated as noble in Dawn. This is the control and stop loss awareness of --. Even in politics, it can surpass most noble.

When you say --, here Roland can't help but look to Nightingale. "Now you can not only distinguish the authenticity, but even the inner emotions can be felt. Are you about to evolve?"

"Do you think that I have evolved and will not say -- or will I still be so humble?" Nightingale gave him a nasty look.

Well, it makes sense.

Roland closed his mouth with interest.
