Chapter 757: Negotiations established

The car drove forward along the street, and inside the car, laughter like silver bells echoed.

"Hahahahaha... I didn't expect that I could actually see the Lord of the Clock Tower showing such an expression. He is truly worthy of being an elder brother. Although whips and sugar are necessary during negotiations, he has a nuclear bomb and a stick in one hand. Aren’t lollipops too much?”

The one who laughed was none other than Lenise. At this moment, the girl was swinging her legs from side to side on the chair with excitement that was appropriate for her age, like an excited child who had just watched a movie.

 “I just made them a deal they couldn’t refuse.”

Sitting in the back seat, Duanmuhuai seemed very calm. Generally speaking, such a small car compartment could not fit him. But the clock tower seems to have used some kind of magic, so that the carriage does not look as small as the outside, but rather spacious.

I didn’t expect that space magic can be used at this level. It seems that if I practice more in the future, I might be able to drive.

"But having said that, the faces of those monarchs at that time were all blue. It's a good thing that they were able to accept your proposal, my brother. After all, generally speaking, nobles are unwilling to give up their glory."

Although she said this, Lenis certainly understood why those monarchs were willing to agree to Duanmu Huai's request. Even she could feel that at that time, Duanmu Huai had already inspired the spiritual veins of the entire UK, not relying on some magic ritual. Or the special magic circle, just the aura exuded from his body can make the spiritual veins of the British Isles vibrate. This is equivalent to Duanmu Huai being able to completely destroy everything on this land in a single thought.

As he said, even if the entire British Isles sink to the bottom of the sea, it is not impossible.

This is obviously beyond the scope of human beings, and even the wrath of the gods is probably nothing more than this. In any case, Duanmuhuai has shown his power, so for the other monarchs in the Clock Tower - they have not much power. So much room for choice.

“But you have to work hard, after all, time is limited.”

"I know."

 Lenice nodded.

The monarch of the Clock Tower did unconditionally agree to all Duanmu Huai's demands, including the incidental suspension of the wanted seal for Aozaki Orange. But that's because there is a time limit - yes, according to Duanmuhuai, he served as El-Melloi's agent only until Lenis succeeded to the throne, which means that after ten years at most, the protection of the Tribunal and Duanmuhuai will be There is a possibility of leaving the El-Melloi family.

"What a wicked brother, aren't we going to be hated by others? The magician is a monster who clings to the past. After you leave, the El-Melloi family will definitely suffer from other monarchs. A storm of revenge."

 “That’s your problem.”

Faced with Lenis's complaint, Duanmu Huai shrugged her shoulders. By the way, Lenise regarded Duanmu Huai as her adopted brother. After all, Duanmu Huai was currently the agent of the El-Melloi family. Even if he was an agent, if Other people who have nothing to do with the family are also prone to problems. Originally, Lenis expressed her willingness to get engaged to Duanmu Huai, but Duanmu Huai had no interest in such a brat, so she simply regarded her as brother and sister.

By the way, Duanmu Huai actually had no intention of supporting the monarch of the astronomy department according to Roman's idea from the beginning. After all, for him, as long as he achieved the creation of Chaldea and found Olga Marie as the director. , it can be linked to the future.

 In this case, it doesn’t matter who builds Chaldea, right?

 The important thing is that Chaldea was built, and that was enough.

This reminded Duanmu Huai of a previous movie in which the protagonist went back in time, fell in love with the heroine, and then died to protect her, while the heroine gave birth to the protagonist... Is this a time-locked loop?

 The final analysis is that Duanmuhuai is not familiar with the establishment of Chaldea. He is like a transfer student who transferred to another school midway. Do you expect him to know anything about the new school? So if Dr. Roman came to this era, he might find a way to do it according to his memory, but for Duanmu Huai... I only need to build Chaldea for you, and I won't bother with the rest.

 That’s pretty much it anyway, let time correct the rest.

Of course, this does not mean that Duanmu Huai is a fool. To put it simply, the reason why he does not like to use intrigues is that Duanmu Huai is not very good at it. On the other hand, it is also because he is wary of treachery. Use a trick too many times and it's easy to get sucked in. In comparison, it is much easier to solve everything with fists. Even if something goes wrong, it's easy to figure it out.

But this does not mean that Duanmuhuai will not use some tricks.

Without Lenise’s reminder, Duanmuhuai also understood that these monarchs would not give up so easily. They will definitely observe themselves secretly and look for their weaknesses in order to reach a deal or some exchange with themselves. If Duanmuhuai had just obtained this position and started preparing for the construction of Chaldea with great fanfare, others would definitely see through. Therefore, he also has his own plan. After all, the art of war has its own meaning. What is real is imaginary, and what is imaginary is real. All in all, let's first see if the monarch of the Celestial Body will still build Chaldea according to historical records. If he is not willing, it will not be too late for Duanmu Huai to take over.

  It’s not a short amount of time anyway.

 That’s right, time.

 This was the most indispensable thing in the past. There are many ways to return to the future from the past, but what if someone goes back to the past but cannot return to the future?

There is no way at all. The best way is to stay in the past, and then wait until the past time connects with the future before coming back.

For example, Duanmu Huai can stay in this world until he is teleported back to the past from Chaldea in the "future" and then go back.

 It's just that he doesn't have such good patience.

After that, everything went well.

I don’t know whether it was Duanmu Huai’s threat that played a role, or whether the monarchs planned that it would not be too late for a gentleman to take revenge. In short, the final crown decision also gave the answer as Duanmu Huai asked.

The fact that the El-Melloi family will continue to be located in the Twelve Monarchs will not change, and then there is the change of the department - Duanmuhuai himself is not obsessed with the mineral department, so after the monarchs discussed it, he and Meas, who is located in the neutralist faction, The Theia family made an exchange. To put it simply, the Meastia monarch who was originally in charge of the archeology department was transferred to the ore department, and the archeology department was transferred to the El-Melloi family.

This distribution itself can be regarded as an overture to El-Melloi by the Meastia family, the leader of the neutralist faction. After all, the archeology discipline has the largest number of secret treasures and relics. Now that they are directly talking about giving it away, it seems that the Meastia family is also bleeding heavily.

But it is normal to do so. After all, the El-Melloi family owns Medea. Modern magicians go to archeology, which is called archeology, and Medea's archeology is called recollection of life... And there is definitely no one who understands these secret treasures and relics. It will be more profound than the magicians of the Gods, so this can be regarded as making the best use of it.

  Medea’s first lecture in the Clock Tower was packed with people. After all, this was a lecture from a magician from the age of the gods. Not only the students, but also the instructors tried their best to squeeze in. Some people are eager to obtain first-hand information from the Age of Gods, some hope to let the magicians of the Gods answer their confusions, and some are eager to learn everything about the magicians of the Gods - after all, magicians are creatures who pursue the past, and Medea As a legendary heroic spirit, Ya is almost the pinnacle of what they pursue, second only to the Root Vortex.

 In other words, Medea is the image of the oldest and perfect magician that these magicians pursue.

 Therefore, many families turned to El-Melloi one after another, using various methods and means to hope to enter the archaeological discipline and receive Medea's guidance. For these boring political transactions, Duanmuhuai directly handed over to Lenis to handle. Although he didn't know how much the El-Melloi family got after that, but seeing the way Lenis was walking with ease at that time, it was clear that We know that the El-Melloi family has really made a lot of money this time.

By the way, Sakura also joined the El-Melloi family. To be honest, Lenis was quite surprised after learning about Sakura's imaginary number attribute. She strongly expressed her hope to give up the position of heir to Sakura. According to Lenis According to Nissi, she has had enough of this kind of intrigue among magicians. If it weren't for some luck and the fact that the origin seal was the best compatible with her, she would never have been able to get through to her. The family is the heir.

 So now that she saw someone who could inherit this position, Lenis couldn't wait to give up... Unfortunately, both Duanmuhuai and Xiaoying refused.

The world of magicians is too complex and insidious, and Duanmuhuai doesn't think that an honest child like Sakura can compete with others in playing tricks. But now Lenis and Sakura have a good relationship. Although Lenis seems to like teasing Sakura, the two of them feel like sisters who have a good relationship.

After all, with the protection of the El-Melloi family, Sakura can live a normal life in the magic world without the need for a magic seal. For Lenis, Sakura with imaginary attributes joining the El-Melloi family is a card in itself. trump card.

And now Sakura has received the teachings of Medea, and can be regarded as Medea's introductory disciple. Magicians of the Gods are more familiar with the properties of imaginary numbers than modern magicians, and the properties of imaginary numbers originally refer to the property of imaginary numbers. Although it is possible But matter that does not exist in the physical world is almost as mysterious as itself. So compared to ordinary magicians, Sakura is actually closer to the magicians of the Gods.

Moreover, it is the kind that allows you to perform magic from the Age of Gods without signing a contract with the gods.

 For Duanmuhuai, this is just the beginning.

 And what comes next is the highlight.
