Gold is Justice

Faced with Song of the Mermaid's sudden armor, the owner of Little Liquor seemed a little surprised.He looked at Coco who was holding a wand next to him, and saw Duck standing behind him through the window at the side, he couldn't help exhaling slightly, and said——

"I originally thought we had lived in a small town for so long, we should be familiar with each other."

Ariel glanced at Coco, who was overwhelmed with vigilance, then smiled, and said, "After all, my body has become like this, so of course the security needs to be increased. I don't want to repeat the same mistakes again and become the next leader to be assassinated." .”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Liao suddenly smiled, and now he seemed to have finally relaxed, took a sip from the teacup in front of him, and then nodded slightly, as if he was very satisfied with the tea.

"So, Liquor Boss, can we talk about this business in detail?"

At this point, the owner of Little Liquor completely relaxed.It's just that the smile on his face is still modest and polite, and he is completely a refined gentleman.

He put down the water glass in his hand, and said slowly: "I don't know about the saintess, how much does President Ariel know?"

Ariel was taken aback for a moment, then said, "What does it have to do with the saint...?"

Xiao Lijiu continued: "The saint is now leading a group of her believers to settle in Diliao Province. To be honest, that place is like a holy place. Outsiders can't get in, and people inside can't come out. But She's actually creating trouble."

Ariel was silent, waiting for him to continue.

"I don't know if you know the situation of the holy woman recently? I can provide some information about the holy woman. You should know that there were four nuns stationed beside her, right? But for some reason, her side Now there are only two nuns left. Even if there are only these two, the state doesn't look right."

"One of them looks like he has suffered a great mental trauma. He is crazy all day long, and he can't understand what he is talking about. The other one looks a little... strange. The nun is like It seemed to be 'infected' by something, the body began to become taller and longer, but the whole person could not speak at all, and some abscesses appeared on the body from time to time, and the joints of the body were also Distortion, as if it is undergoing some kind of slow mutation."

Ariel listened silently, still not asking any questions.

The smile on the face of the boss of Little Liquor slowly disappeared, and he said immediately: "Near the area of ​​the saint, there is a shelter that I temporarily built. But it is obvious that the domain of the saint has begun to invade my shelter. The people I protect will gradually want to run out, go to the holy place of the saint, and even talk nonsense at night and have some completely indescribable dreams."

"I once thought about solving this problem, but it is obvious that the problem of the saint is beyond my ability, so I hope to use your power to solve this hidden danger."

Ariel tilted her head slightly, and looked at the little liquor in front of her with some doubts.After a long silence, he slowly asked——

"Little Liquor Boss, who are you...?"

To this question, Little Liquor nodded lightly.He patted the dust off his body a little, and said slowly——

"I'm just a surviving watchman, a gravekeeper. If you want me to explain it more clearly, then I might as well tell you."

In the next moment, the face of the owner of Little Liquor immediately showed markings like burning flames!Two huge sharp horns shot out from his forehead like two sharp swords!

Although there doesn't seem to be any change in his body now, just sitting here, the aura emanating from his body is enough to give people an endless sense of oppression.

Seeing this scene, Brad, Buffy, Coco, Dak, Rummy, Suta, and Bass stationed in the room all became more alert. Aimed at the man sitting on the sofa!As long as he has any changes, the bullets of the elemental gun will be fired mercilessly!

However, after showing his identity, those magma cracks slowly dissipated from the face of the little spirits.Those sharp horns were also retracted, and he became an ordinary human again, and he became the owner of the unicorn bar.

After confirming that the person in front of her was indeed a demon, Ariel couldn't help swallowing, and asked, "Little Liquor...boss? Are you still you?"

Little Liquor smiled, raised his gloved hands slightly, and said, "I am still me. From more than 500 years ago to now, I have always been myself."

Although these words sound a little untrue, Ariel still had the courage to continue to ask: "More than 500 years? You...are also one of the watchmen? Just like Napa...waiting for a certain release Is the time of sealing coming?"

"Napa? Oh, that one."

There was a slight smile on the corner of Xiao Lijiu's mouth, and he said——

"My task is different from that one. The goal of that one is to find an opportunity to resurrect my Lord, so that my Lord can make up for the regrets of more than 300 years ago. My task is to guard the tomb. To ensure that my Lord will live for a long time If you can’t recover your power, and you will encounter the seal again after recovering your power, then we should examine whether other people are qualified to take on the important task of guardian of the earth, and give that power to that person.”

Ariel swallowed: "So... your mission failed?"

Xiao Lijiu thought for a while: "I don't know. All I know is that my job is over. Over the long years, I have lived next to Pelican City in various identities. Sometimes I am a woodcutter The old man, sometimes he is a strong farmer, and sometimes he is a bartender in charge of bartending. I am very patient, which is why my lord chose me to be the gravekeeper."

Ariel: "I still don't understand..."

Little Liquor: "There are many things you don't understand, but this time I'm here to talk to you about this deal, but it's a real deal. I originally wanted to kill that saint myself, but her barrier prevented me from entering .After thinking about it, maybe only you humans can go in without hindrance."

Ariel smiled slightly and said, "Little Liquor Boss, what you said is very interesting, but I want to know, why should I help you? If you really follow what you said, then wouldn't the saint become your friend?" Trouble with the devil? She and I are allies of humans, so it is impossible to help you destroy her.”

One thousand 650 three chapters and the devil's deal

Xiao Lijiu seemed to have realized what Ariel said a long time ago, and continued: "Then, under her influence, my subordinates, my colleagues, and some demons who are very powerful in your mouth are gradually affected. After being bewitched by her, entering her holy land, and becoming her right-hand man, do you still think that this kind of thing doesn't matter? As far as I know, the relationship between the saint and your mermaid army is not good."

After thinking for a moment, Ariel slowly said: "Little Liquor Boss, if you think such a small problem can make me swing my knife at human allies, are you underestimating me too? , are you planning to persuade me to fail, and kill me directly now? Really, for the sake of our good friends, I really don’t want to see this kind of scene. I entered the Pelican for the first time Zhen, it was the first breakfast you cooked for me, so I still remember it very clearly."

Seeing Ariel's refusal without hesitation, Xiao Liao could only sigh helplessly, and said, "I knew a long time ago that it would be impossible to succeed in persuading you with this kind of reason."

Ariel: "So?"

Little Liquor: "So, I have prepared another big gift, I hope you can settle for the next best thing and make a deal with me."

Faced with this situation, Ariel didn't know what this old friend who seemed to be very familiar with was thinking now.

Carefully recalling everything in Pelican Town, the little spirits owner ran his tavern so quietly. Even after Pelican Town developed into Pelican City, he still did not change anything. Watching his little tavern not expand.

There was a time when Ariel thought that something very important must have happened to this boss, causing his time to freeze.

It's just that I didn't expect that this time stagnation turned out to be in a practical sense, not a rhetorical one.

As for now... the deal?

How to trade?

But calm down.The so-called transaction...doesn't it refer to things that can bring benefits to both of them?Didn't you think so before?

So, calm down now and don't get too nervous...things are far from where they need to be.

Things can still be resolved... as long as we can maintain communication...

Isn't communication what you do best?

Thinking of this, Ariel exhaled a little, smiled slowly, and said, "I think the boss of Little Spirits should understand the so-called 'deal'... what should it mean? If you plan to use some strong means to force If I make a choice, it's not a deal."

The boss of Little Liquor still looks like a gentleman.He smiled slowly and said: "Of course I know this. Ms. Ariel, I am honored to be able to trade with you, a leader among human beings. I believe that you will also be able to make the best choice. Then again..."

Little Liquor raised his head, looked at the elemental guns all around him aimed at him, and said with a smile: "I'm not strong enough to 'force' you to do something under the pressure of so many guns."

Now it's considered a tentative agreement, and Ariel feels that this man doesn't seem to show any hostility.

After the two sides calmed down for a while, the owner of Little Spirits reached into his arms, took out a scroll, and handed it to Ariel.

Ke Ke waved his wand, and an undead soldier stepped forward to take the scroll, opened it, and handed it to Ariel after confirming that there was no weird magic on it.

This is a topographic map.

Judging from the various labels on the topographic map, it should be a map of Liao Province.There is also a lot of information densely marked on it, and I can't understand it for a while.

"This is a topographic map of Liao Province. It is marked with red pens, which are some of the garrison points of our elf army. The green marks are the human settlements that are still carrying out certain activities under our permission. .”

If this topographic map is true, it can be regarded as even more powerful for the Mermaid Army's next strategy against Liao Province!

However, is it really such a good thing to obtain such important information so easily?

After glancing at the maps, Ariel said slowly: "This gift is indeed heavy enough, but the problem is, it may not be worth a penny."

She put away the scroll, put it on the tea table in front of her, and said, "How do I know that this map is not fake? You know, our mermaid army once occupied Diliao Province, and we also have the topographic map of Diliao Province. And you All that is left is the various troop configurations above. But the problem is that troop configurations can be changed. Even if the map you gave me is real, but when we really use this terrain map to attack, you guys It might have been transferred long ago."

The owner of Little Liquor nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Yes, your suspicion is very reasonable. But please listen to me."

"The reason why I sent this topographic map to you, President, is that I hope you can understand that there have been some changes in our elf army. These marked points indicate not all elf troops, but some of them. Part of it. More precisely..."

After a short pause, the owner of Little Spirits said again: "It's about the troops led by a general of the Elven Army. What I hope is that you can use this topographic map to eliminate this Elf." General of the army."

Such a proposal really surprised Ariel!

If it is converted into human terms... is this demon trying to kill other fellow demons? !

Such a proposal is really too important, Ariel couldn't help but take a deep breath, and said, "This... Are you fighting among yourself?"

Little Liquor raised his eyebrows slightly, put on a very gentlemanly smile, and said, "No. It's simply because he blocked my way. I suggested that he get out of the way a little bit, but he still refused to stand aside One stop. There is no way, I can only use this method to make him disappear, thus solving my problem."

Not only Ariel was a little surprised by these words, but even all the other Mermaid Song members were a little surprised now.After all, they all felt that even if the demons didn't cooperate enough, this shouldn't happen, right?

After a long time, Ariel regained her strength and said, "Is this some kind of bad joke?"

Little Liquor spread his hands: "I didn't carry any weapons. I came in front of you and was pointed at by so many guns, just to make a bad joke?"

Ariel shook her head lightly, took a deep breath, and said, "This is really...somewhat unbelievable, even impossible. Would that guy Egg not respond to you doing this kind of thing? You know, you The current behavior is outright collaboration and betrayal."

In this regard, Xiao Lijiu shook his finger lightly and said: "No, I don't think this is a betrayal. In my opinion, this is just an act of purge. It is for the sake of making our elf army stronger. Not giving up. It's like rotten flesh and sores growing on the body, which must be cut off as soon as possible before we can move forward."

"As for His Royal Highness the Elven King... he now has a difficult choice between me and that guy. He knows that one of us must retreat, but he doesn't know who should retreat. Therefore, as long as he can The behaviors that make this matter come to fruition are currently within the scope of His Highness's permission."

Ariel couldn't help but took a deep breath, and said: "Ego would really allow you to fight among yourself... for this, even at the expense of your own strength?" Little Liquor: "Ms. Too unrealistically overestimated. In your opinion, our elf army seems to have been defeated by you, and even lost a province. But for our elf army, this kind of loss is really small and can almost Losses are not counted. Moreover, our Lord is too merciful, so merciful that it is difficult to carry out his beliefs more than 300 years ago. I understand that this kind of benevolence comes from His deep love for human beings, but this is not sustainable. You human beings forced him too hard that day, after my lord is fully awakened, you will encounter unimaginable blows."

Ariel didn't speak, just remained silent.After a while, she said slowly: "Then, does that demon you want him to stand aside, know that you want to deal with him?"

Xiao Lijiu nodded lightly, and said: "Although he hasn't turned against him publicly, he has already put my brother under house arrest. I think this should mean that he has already started to attack."

Ariel: "Mr. Vodka? How is he doing now?"

Little Liquor smiled: "Thank you, Ms. Ariel, for your concern. He is currently under house arrest. Before he finds out that I really showed my fangs and claws to him, he should be fine. This is also because I am inconvenient. The reason for directly fighting against him on the surface, so I hope that you humans can be invited to help, so that the situation should be a little simpler."

Ariel understood the general situation, but such an action was so ridiculous that she couldn't make up her mind for a while.

After all, now, all the things are said by the little spirits boss here alone. No one can judge whether what he said is true or not. It is not at all clear whether this is a trap or not.

At that moment, Ariel opened the scroll, and looked at the topographic map and marked points on it again.

It can be seen that if this garrison map is completely real, it is indeed possible to charge directly into the heart of the enemy with a small force, and directly face the largest red punctuation marked on the map in one breath.

After a little hesitation, Ariel closed her eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Sounds very tempting, but to me, I still don't think it's a risky action worth taking."

Ariel rewound the scroll, put it back in front of Xiao Liquor, and said slowly——

"As you said, the mermaid army can cooperate with you, and then attack these garrison points. Then help you clear the obstacles in front of you. At first glance, you have solved your political opponents, and our mermaid army can greatly reduce you This is a preparation that kills two birds with one stone."

"But you seem to have forgotten that if I don't do this, your two troops will also restrain each other. It's much better to let you make conflicts yourself than I help you solve the conflicts, right?"

"So, Boss of Little Spirits, I can only say that it's a pity that I can't accept such a transaction. This kind of business that only has short-term gains but long-term losses is really unacceptable."

For Ariel's refusal, the owner of Little Liquor seemed a little surprised.He sat on the sofa and was deadlocked for several seconds, without speaking or making any expressions, just staring blankly at Ariel.

And Ariel also knew that she couldn't show weakness at this time, so she also met his gaze.

Through the eyes of Little Liquor, Ariel felt as if she saw something very profound and strange.That kind of thing is like facing a dark mirror. Obviously, nothing can be reflected on the mirror, but you can vaguely feel that there is something behind the mirror that is preparing to pull you in and merge with the mirror. generally.

"It's okay. In business matters, there is always a state of being able to negotiate and not being able to negotiate."

I don't know how long it took, Xiao Lijiu finally patted his pants, got up slowly from the sofa, saluted Ariel slowly again, and said: "I'm sorry, I originally thought that this kind of thing would make the two of us form a relationship." A win-win situation. After all, in my opinion, we should fight this war for a long time. In such a long time, we have enough energy to engage in political content. But now it seems that I am still wishful thinking gone."

Afterwards, he turned his head and saw the Mermaid Song members who were pointing at him with elemental guns. He smiled and said, "What? President Ariel won't let me leave safely because I can't do business. Bar?"
