Dominate the Treacherous Realm
Chapter 754
Bryney wanted to ask again, but I also felt that it seemed very interesting to watch it develop a little bit. And this is not her own business, there is no need to appear to be "pretentious" in the first place. Hathaway knew that Alexia would definitely not want to have one more person in the family, and she would also like to trust Jenkins.
Looking in the direction Jenkins left, Hathaway thought of another thing, so she said softly:
"Speaking of which, Alexia, I have something to ask you."
This sentence means that she wants to talk to Alexia alone. Although Britney and Miss Windsor are puzzled, they think they want to talk about the gifter, so they are not overly curious.
After Alexia and Hathaway walked to a secluded corner of the corridor, Hathaway hesitated for a while before blurting out the question that made Alexia smile:
"What do you think of Jenkins's cat, which is chocolate?"
On the other side, Jenkins, who was following the servant, saw Queen Isabella in the banquet hall on the first floor. She was sitting on the sofa by the wall, chatting with a few old ladies about her age, and seeing Jenkins coming , The others got up and left temporarily.
Jenkins nodded and sat down holding the cat, stretched out his hand and took an apple from the long low table in front of him:
"Do you have anything to do with me?"
"I noticed that you have been on the second floor with your friends. This is not okay. Isn't the purpose of social occasions to meet more friends?"
"We have something to do on the second floor."
Jenkins said without changing his face, it is indeed important to plan to overthrow the party organizer's rule of the country:
"I think the necessary greetings are unnecessary. What do you want to talk to me this time? Will the Twelve Church Joint Conference open tomorrow?"
"Although this matter is also very important, it is not my focus. I want to ask, what are the two terrible roars that appeared over Nolan in the morning? The church said it was thunder, but I'm not too confused yet. Can't tell the sound of thunder."
The old man said dissatisfiedly.
Actually the church told Queen Isabella that it was a dragon roar, but after all, it involved the appearance of a treacherous thing. For safety and insurance, the church did not mention that it was a dragon with ordinary people.
Jenkins thought for a while:
"What you know, mysterious and extraordinary, just knowledge and information, it is a burden and harm to ordinary people, do you really want to know?"
Without hesitation, the old man in front of him nodded:
"You don’t need to tell me too many details. You just need to tell me if it’s a giant dragon... Also, don’t play with apples. Pay attention to your etiquette on this occasion. If you think an apple is too It’s big, you can’t finish it by yourself, you can go there to get the fruit platter and put it on the long table on the right side of the champagne tower."
Hearing "Fruit Plate", Chocolate's eyes lit up, eagerly waiting for Jenkins to finish the matter here.
"How did you think it was a dragon?"
Jenkins asked curiously.
"Some people say that I saw a huge figure outside the fog. The huge creature flying in the sky and able to make a terrifying roar, it is hard not to remind me of a dragon. Could it be a flying whale?"
"No, it is true that some whales can fly, but they haven’t appeared for many years... Yes, they are indeed giant dragons. But don’t worry, they won’t destroy the city. This is a friend of the church, currently living in The evergreen forest outside the city, flying over the city today was just an accident."
"So, does this world really have dragons?"
"Of course, you also know that the bloodline of the Middleton family can be traced back to the elves. Since there can be elves in this world, is it weird to have dragons?"
PS: They didn't directly ask Jenkins to refuse, they believed that Jenkins would honor his promise. Of course, Jenkins will keep his promise, but the heroine also has Sigrid.
Chapter 1834 Chapter 1805 The Second Concession
"Yes, since there are elves, it is not surprising that there are dragons."
Queen Isabella held the armrest of the sofa in one hand and muttered to herself, while Jenkins tilted her head to look at the men and women in the banquet hall:
"This world is bigger and more magical than you think. The creatures and past events in myths, legends, and even bedtime stories may be true."
"So, the "Stories of Foreigners" you wrote is also true?"
"No, those stories are false, absolutely false."
He whispered, then turned his head to look at Queen Isabella:
"Although I don’t like you, you don’t have to worry that I will use the power of the gifter to retaliate against you. I am different from you. Although this world is dangerous, for ordinary people like you, as long as you don’t take the initiative to come into contact with the extraordinary and mysterious. , The possibility of encountering danger is much lower than ours."
The old man did not continue to speak, but while rubbing the ring on his hand with his fingers, he lowered his head to think.
So Jenkins got up and looked for the fruit platter. When he sat down, the chocolate was already eating a small apple with his two small paws.
"How did you think about the proposal I mentioned last time?"
The old man suddenly asked. The proposal she said refers to the conversation between Jenkins and the cultist holding Thor's Wrath on the night of the first day of the month, and the two of them had a rest in the mansion where she stayed and changed their clothes. At that time, Queen Isabella made a "concession", promising that as long as Jenkins is willing to let Miss Windsor sit on the throne, then the country will dispose of it at will in 20 years, and there will be no objections.
"Well, I asked Dolores for her opinion. She said that she would rather marry the king, otherwise she would not match her status as a queen."
This sentence is nonsense, but Miss Windsor herself rejected it.
"Salhi II, really willing to send that princess as a dowry in the country inherited from his ancestors?"
"You can ask him yourself."
Jenkins did not answer directly.
Although Sarhi II also came, he did not stay for a long time in the main banquet hall on the first floor and the outside garden because of his poor health. Now he is in the lounge on the second floor, in Dolores and the attendant’s Accompanied by, talk to people about things. So Jenkins asked Queen Isabella to ask herself, not too much.
"Maybe I can take a step back."
The old man said again, raising his head to look at Jenkins.
"Oh? How are you going back? Change the period from 20 years to 10 years? Why is this necessary?"
Jenkins shook his head indifferently.
"Jenkins, I know that you are a very strange person, and you are not as enthusiastic about power as ordinary aristocratic youths of your age. You definitely don't look down on cutting deadlines, so I might as well add some more if you are willing to accept me. Conditions, I can leave all my inheritance to you."
"Miss Windsor and Sigrid don't want it, why do you think I would want it?"
"Do you really know how much my property is?"
Jenkins certainly didn't know, so the old man gave him a list. This is prepared in advance, after all, no one will go out with a list of their property lists.
From the perspective of real estate and various shares, this is indeed a very large sum of money. But more importantly, Queen Isabella actually has the actual control of many second-rate steam companies in China. These are not royal property, but private property that is not protected by the "Royal Property Law" established to prevent the loss of royal property. She is indeed qualified to decide who to leave it to.
"Where did you get so many pounds and shares?"
Jenkins asked after reading it.
"I have been sitting in my seat for nearly half a century, and our country, the king is the real ruler. Is it surprising that I have these assets? Then when you learn about the assets of the royal family, you probably will Even more surprised. How, do you accept it?"
"Of course not."
Jenkins immediately shook his head.
"You don’t need to answer so quickly. You can go back and think about it. I know that the church is very concerned about reducing exhaust emissions from steam factories. If you can get the actual control rights of many small steam companies in China from my hands, you can cooperate with today’s The announced three-nation joint emission control bill, the church’s plan will be implemented more smoothly. And the three kings talks are not over yet, as long as you can agree to my terms, I will do my best to support a stricter air The implementation of the protection bill. After all, I promised to announce my heir after the meeting."
Jenkins still had nothing to say, but after leaving, he still mentioned it to the ladies. Alexia asked him to think about it, and Miss Windsor said that she would not become the next queen.
Jenkins thought for a while, but still didn't plan to agree to that condition. Now that his preparations are complete, there is no need to make any extra troubles.
The focus of this reception is to implement the major achievements of the Three Kings talks on paper. At the same time, it is also announced to the world that the Kingdom of Hampawo and Fidiktelli have always been friends of Chesland, so in their previous term After the King's strange death, the two countries absolutely must avenge the proud Takov.
Queen Isabella and Sarhi II publicly announced that they recognized the second prince of Takwen as the next kingdom of Cheslan. At the same time, the young heir also took out the suicide note left to him before Tuckwen's death, indicating that he was the true king of Cheslan, and the puppet king in the country now illegally occupied the throne.
It is conceivable that the big news that happened in the reception will soon be transmitted to all parts of the world. What kind of reaction will it cause then is not what Jenkins wants to think about now.
After the cocktail party, he still has important things to do. Meeting the believers and allies of the God of Music is the top priority.
First sent the ladies home, on the excuse that Miss Windsor had something to talk about, and sat in her carriage and sent her back to her residence. After that, I quietly asked Miss Yindi, who was the bodyguard of Miss Windsor, how the treatment of Mr. Hood’s right hand is now, but the situation is a bit unoptimistic. The mechanic who helped Mr. Hood last time refused to help anymore. He You can only find another reliable doctor.
Music believers and Jenkins agreed to meet in the Royal Opera House. Although it was a crowded public place, most of the women were musicians with great status, and they were almost their home in the Opera House.
The meeting place is the No. 5 Performance Hall of the Opera House. This is a small hall used only for private performances. It is rarely open at ordinary times and is just the right place for the meeting of course.
Although it was agreed to meet at 7:30, when Jenkins arrived at 7pm, the four leaders of the inviting party’s music followers, namely "Archbishop" Lydia Burnreit, "score composer" Brielli Harms, Miss Bailing Hathaway, the contact person on the west coast of the Great Road, and Miss Stewell, the contact person on the east coast of the mainland, were all present.
Chapter 1835 Chapter 1806 The Union of Pseudo-God Sects
When entering Hall 5 to greet the musicians, Jenkins was very curious about what means Hathaway used to get there faster than riding a unicorn. Everyone started from the city. There is no reason for Servi to set off as soon as he arrives home faster than the unicorn.
But he has no chance to ask now. Seeing four women and scattered musicians sitting in the front row of the auditorium, he walked over and said:
"You guys came really early."
"There is no room for mistakes in this meeting. In order to prevent accidents, I have been here since lunch."
Miss Burnreit said, and then motioned to Jenkins to look around the boxes with curtains:
"In addition to us, there are some cults that have the intention of cooperation have also sent representatives. But they still do not fully trust you, nor do they trust this cooperation very much, so they hide in those boxes. If they approve of your proposal Conditions, they will appear."
Although it is a small performance hall, there are not many boxes. Jenkins swept around with real eyes and knew that there were quite a few people who came early. He also saw Miss Magic, a believer of the **** of rituals, just like Miss Magic said, her church members were not prepared, and did not decide whether to trust the cooperation with the believer of lies.
"You don't have to tell me who is coming tonight, but I at least want to know how many pagan cults you have contacted?"
Jenkins asked slowly, choosing the front row to sit down on the central aisle. Hathaway was sitting on the other side of the aisle. She didn't even look at the talking man, her eyes were looking at the white cat.
"Seven, but as long as four are willing to cooperate with you, you will definitely be able to find more collaborators in the future."
Ms. Stillwell said that Jenkins doubted how many of the seven different cults she had contacted.
"Tomorrow is the beginning of the joint church meeting. Are your people ready?"
Miss Harms asked again.
"We have got the current meeting schedule. The meeting will be held in five local churches in turn, then go to the Evergreen Forest, and then choose one day to close the meeting. In this way, a week’s time is a meeting cycle, so we You need to sneak into different churches on different days. But don’t worry, it’s not difficult.”
He said casually, and then prompted:
"Unlike the Three Kings meeting, the church meeting will not take a long time. Many details have already been discussed. The formal meeting only announces the results that can be seen by ordinary people. After all. This is not the first disaster and end of the material world. The church has many previous experiences."
"You mean to say that you have obtained negotiation materials within the church."
Hathaway asked.
"of course."
Jenkins said, he has spent a lot of time looking at the documents these days, lest he say something wrong at the opening ceremony tomorrow.
"It's better than I thought. It seems that your spy work is pretty good."
Miss Bernrete commented.
"Compared to the church, it's still far behind."
Jenkins touched the cat and replied, Miss Stillwell suspected that he meant something.
Everyone arrived earlier than agreed, but the specific discussions still started at 7:30. Before the beginning, the musicians performed ingeniously on the stage. This took about 20 minutes, roughly speaking of the changes and history of the Eighteenth Period in the way of singing, and finally used a magnificent ensemble to show the moment they are facing. Even the doomsday that is happening.
Their singing is quite good, and Jenkins does not need to buy tickets, so he welcomes such ceremonial performances.
Because it was said before, the believers of lies will give preferential treatment to the musicians. All the content discussed here today is just a unified treatment for all the pagan groups who are willing to support the believers of lies. The treatment of musicians will be discussed separately later.
In return for the discriminatory treatment of Mr. Candle, the musicians will ostensibly stand in the same position as the people in the box in this discussion, and in fact play the role of a less glorious lobbyist.
The conditions that Jenkins can offer to attract false gods are not real money, and he also believes that the support obtained with money is often unloyal and unreliable. Therefore, the condition he gave was a more unreliable verbal promise. It was still the same rhetoric used when he first met with musicians, but he would fully support their order in the next era to gain access to walk in the material world and build churches. The treatment was reduced to just free preaching.
But this is attractive enough, free preaching means many things, not only the expansion of the number of the church, but also the influence of the church and the gods has a completely different effect from this period.
Jenkins couldn't come up with anything substantial at this time, so he could only sit there and talk about his vision for the next era, and his desire for people of multiple beliefs to walk together under the blue sky and white clouds.
He is actually not a person who is good at speaking, but because before he became Jenkins, he had heard too many excellent speeches and read too many speeches that moved people's hearts. In this world where no one can penetrate him, Borrowing a little bit can have a good effect on him persuading others.
At least the musicians sitting next to them have shown a state of approval. Now the believers who lie are really familiar with the Orthodox Church, and they have more detailed plans and demands for negotiations with the Orthodox Church in the near future. For people like them, they have shown sufficient respect and equality. Such "liars" are completely different from the rude and rude, violent and cunning appearance they had imagined before.
If it was not a secret gathering in the small hall of the opera house outside the city at this time, that is to say, the man speaking in front of him was a prominent nobleman in Nolan, they would all be willing to believe it.
There was another episode during Jenkins’s speech. The roar of the dragon appeared overhead again, and there was also a very messy sound of horseshoe passing by. You must know that this is the opera house, and the sound insulation of the walls is absolutely top-notch. These sounds indicate that fierce fighting is taking place above the opera house.
Those noises disappeared quickly, and Jenkins soothed the crowd a little and explained what the church was doing. Including the people hiding in the box, most of these people are not natives of Nolan, and they are very surprised about the local dragons. But in general, this matter has little to do with everyone, so just a few comments, and then continue to listen to Jenkins's speech.
Jenkins did not use the power of the priesthood to deceive others. He really explained his ideas wholeheartedly.
This secret rally was considered a success. In the end, 5 cults made it clear that they would appear in negotiations with the Orthodox Church and support the believers of Zhan's lies, and they also agreed to lobby more pseudo-sects to join their camp.
Those who did not express their opinions on the spot, in fact, did not immediately refuse, but wanted to make a decision after internal discussions.
But they all agreed to tell friends they can meet about the fact that the lie believers are calling for supporters. This is just a simple effort, and since the lie believers don't care about confidentiality issues, they naturally won't care.
For the sake of safety, after an oral agreement was made, and it was agreed to meet again before formal negotiations with the Orthodox Church, everyone left in batches. The musicians are the last to leave, because after everyone is gone, they still have things to talk to Jenkins.
"Has everyone gone?"
Miss Stillwell asked the woman who walked in through the door. She went to check all the boxes just now to make sure that no one stayed overhearing.
"All gone, and according to Mr. Candle's instructions, I removed the things stuck to the wall."
