Chapter 1651: Chapter 876: Shrouded in Radiance (Part 2)
It would be great if I could get some demigod’s eyeballs.
The only worry is that the bag is almost too full, and I need to find a way to send it to Jindai Yunlo.
I don’t know if there’s anything like a space ring in the West Continent, or perhaps... I wonder if Da Yu would be willing to give me a space ring?
I can have a good discussion with Da Yu later.
Qing Chen casually sacrificed the Drama Master to the Puppeteer, and this time, the Puppeteer actually grew a seventh string!
Moreover, during the sacrifice, the Puppeteer seemed extremely joyful.
Qing Chen felt strange. Is it because taboo objects have a special interest in transcendent beings who have mastered the rules?
...
...
The sound of gunfire outside the transport truck has subsided.
With a click, Qing Chen opened the door and glanced at the Fifth Princess outside. The Fifth Princess also calmly looked at him: "Joker, I’ve heard a lot about you."
Qing Chen asked with great interest: "Your Highness, the Fifth Princess, came to find me alone, aren’t you afraid I’ll kill someone? My infamous reputation has already spread across the West Continent."
The Fifth Princess didn’t bring any attendants, she said coldly: "You infiltrated my husband’s side, did so many things, and even teamed up with He to put on a good show for me. Impressive, back then when you two were accusing each other over the phone, it was really vivid."
Qing Chen felt a bit embarrassed: "Hahaha, that time was out of necessity, after all, we were in an adversarial state."
The Fifth Princess asked: "So, are we friends now?"
"At least not enemies," Qing Chen said cautiously: "While trapped in the elevator, I pondered many things. There are a few things I’m curious about; may I ask the Fifth Princess to enlighten me?"
Fifth Princess Viola said: "The fleet from Silver City will arrive in twenty minutes. If you have questions, ask them quickly."
"Why were you able to evade the Drama Master’s prophecy this time?" Qing Chen asked.
"I can’t tell you about the Drama Master’s matters," Viola looked into Qing Chen’s eyes: "You should be well aware that sharing the Drama Master’s secrets with you would be like handing over my fate to you. For now, you’re not worthy of such a pledge."
Viola said: "Over in the Eastern Continent, they’ve been fighting internally for hundreds of years, and despite my Roosevelt Kingdom watching them fiercely, they ended up killing several demigods in the infighting and even started wars. Now, if the Roosevelt Kingdom were to launch an all-out eastern expedition, it would take down the entire Eastern Continent effortlessly. In this situation, although both you and I are being hunted, how can I trust that you can help me?"
Viola’s attitude is clear: cooperation.
Now.
Qing Chen wants to use her, she also wants to use Qing Chen, at this moment Viola doesn’t truly believe that Qing Chen and the Eastern Continent can accomplish much, she just wants to utilize every available resource.
In Qing Chen’s view, Viola’s attitude is the normal one.
She doesn’t, like a giant, want Qing Chen to become a leader. If she did show such an attitude, Qing Chen would be more cautious.
The Fifth Princess is a very important figure; she was previously in charge of the intelligence agency and has many connections and resources at her disposal.
Though King Roosevelt wants to kill her, he can only do so secretly for now. As long as she lies in the Golden Coffin without dying, she remains the Fifth Princess of this empire.
There are still people supporting her in the shadows.
Viola has her own assets and needs time. She wants to delay until she becomes a demigod Drama Master.
As long as she can progress faster than the Drama Master of the Duke of Storm City, this empire will still be hers.
Qing Chen considered: "What I say now may indeed lack persuasion, but I need a little time, and time will give us the answers."
Qing Chen’s foundation is still weak; he needs time to witness the rise of those experts under his command.
Once Jindai Yunlo collects 100 pairs of eyeballs, the Hundred-Eyed Demon will instantly have demigod-level combat power.
Zhang Mengchan, Li Ke, Chen Zhuoqu, and Hu Jingyi, who have passed the Heart Inquiry, may bring him surprises one day in the future.
Those who didn’t pass the Heart Inquiry in the Knight Reserves will also grow quickly.
The Parents’ Meeting is continually giving birth to B-Class Cultivators.
Finally... there’s Jinguji Maki.
One day, Qing Chen’s command will definitely not lack high-level combat power, but he needs time.
Viola looked at Qing Chen: "If we talk cooperation, what do you need me to do?"
Qing Chen said: "I need a batch of people’s identities to be legalized so they can walk openly in the Roosevelt Kingdom."
Viola thought for a moment: "No problem, but all identities must be slaves."
"No problem," Qing Chen nodded: "What do you need me to do?"
Viola considered and said: "Just go with your instincts; before we cooperated, you already made my father have a headache."
She even wanted to joke, asking Qing Chen to hold back a little, or else the Roosevelt Empire might be very broken by the time she takes over.
However, she probably now understood why Bolton could become a Duke...
From the prophecy alone, the prospects for cooperation between the two were quite promising.
At this moment, Viola suddenly asked a curious question: "I’m also curious about one thing. You should have known that He Jinqiu would betray you; why did you take this trip? Was it just because you were confident? But from my perspective, if the other party didn’t want to capture you alive, rather they wanted to kill you, this kind of confidence would be arrogance and ignorance."
