Forced to be the Lord of the Underworld
Chapter 34
The Earl of Dolan County—Sekensi, a yellow bone-level skeleton, is also the pinnacle of the county's force value.
There is no yellow bone in one hand in the entire Dolan County, so one can imagine how strong it is.
Zuo Si hid in a cabinet full of weapons. For some reason, he suddenly felt like being raped.
"What are you hiding here for?" Nineteen asked curiously.
He didn't know why he hid here, maybe it was because the task was not completed, or he was still a little bit unwilling.
"Didn't you finish your mission?"
Since the disguise of Nineteen was revealed, he seemed to be a different person, like a chatterbox who was curious about everything.
Zuo Si looked at him speechlessly, clicked on the blue screen and switched to the voice assistant mode, great, the world is quiet.
But what happened on the side of the witch opened his eyes. He saw Sekensi walk in, directly pulled Celia into his arms, and then made a move.
Celia looked unusually petite in its arms, without the slightest threatening gesture just now.
So the strength of the witch is not above the yellow bone?Otherwise, it would be too resigned.
Soon Celia began to pant, Sekensi teased and said, "Why, I haven't seen you in just two months, do you miss me so much?"
Celia said coquettishly, "Does the Earl still remember me?"
"Why don't you remember my beauty." Sekenxi pushed her down on the chair and said, "Your high and mighty lord witch is really irresistible."
Celia stood on the chair and hugged it, her eyes slowly turned cold from the angle where it couldn't see, but her tone was still charming: "That's really my honor."
Her expression became even colder, and as soon as a yellow bone dagger appeared in her hand, Sekenxi grabbed her arm.
"Don't make trouble." Its tone was full of indulgence, as if it had seen this kind of situation a lot, so it didn't care much.
Celia was very disgusted: "Sekensi, the tiger will also take a nap, you won't be so lucky every time."
"Then don't worry, the skeleton won't doze off."
Sekenxi is very confident in his own strength.
But watching this scene, Zuo Si had a guess in his heart. The witch was just superficially mysterious and seemingly unfathomable. In fact, she couldn't beat Huanggu at all. As for her ability to control items with her mind, maybe it was because of other reasons?
Zuo Si looked around the tree hole. He guessed that the witch's ability to control objects should be related to the tree hole.
And Sekensi seemed to be taking advantage of the witch, verbal teasing, and taking advantage of her hands, but she never went any further.
Presumably it is also afraid that the witch will kill it in the process.
"Myerson is going to attack Dakaesong, you know?"
Although Sekensi is a question, his expression looks very sure. It has long known about Myerson's cooperation with the witch?
Celia remained calm on the surface, and said softly, "My lord suspects that the Lord of Myerson's decision to attack Dakai City was controlled by me behind the scenes?"
It wasn't as obvious as Sekensi said, but it did suspect that it was right.
She neither pretended not to understand, nor did she hide it, but asked directly, do you doubt me?
After she asked this sentence, the suspicion in Sekenxi's eyes became a little less, but he was still suspicious.
"Isn't it?" Since Celia got straight to the point, Sekensi didn't plan to hide it anymore.
"If the Earl has decided so, will the Earl be willing to listen to my explanation?"
"How do you know Earl Ben won't listen if you don't tell me?"
Hearing the two of them practicing Tai Chi there, Zuo Si frowned impatiently, not knowing how long they would keep coming and going like this.
But he knew in his heart that if he went out now, he would only face the anger of the two of them, not to mention that he should keep a low profile and not attract the earl's attention.
The witch Celia crossed her legs and stared straight at Sekensi: "If I say that I don't know about Myerson's attack on Dakaesong, will the Earl believe me?"
The eyes of the two collided in the air, Sekenxi stared at her for a long time before smiling and said, "I believe, the Earl of course believes in you."
But everyone could tell that it didn't believe Celia.
"It doesn't believe it." Nineteen, who was included in the system, affirmed: "From the analysis of its tone, it just doesn't want to dwell on this issue."
Zuo Si raised his brows lightly, will Nineteen Couples use a system to analyze every sentence?
Celia smiled and said, "The Earl is here for something?"
"Couldn't it be Earl Ben who misses you?" Sekensi smiled, and then said, "Prepare me the potion, I need it now."
"Now? Your lord earl asked for too much, and I'm afraid I can't get it out now." Celia shook her head and refused.
It seems that this is not the first time they have traded, and Celia is well aware of the amount Sekenxi wants.
Zuo Si looked at the interaction between them, and had a guess about the relationship between the two.
The witch seems to be aloof, but she still has to succumb to the despotic power of Earl Sekensi. This situation only shows that without absolute strength, even a witch has to admit defeat.
He had a guess about the witch's strength in his heart, no wonder the witch talked so much nonsense with him, he must be worried about exposing his strength by doing something.
They pretend to be gods and ghosts, and make themselves very mysterious. Every move is like a fantasy blockbuster, but in fact it is just to create a preconceived impression on the viewers.
Picking things up from a distance, and something appearing out of thin air in her hand, all make people feel that she is very powerful.
But in fact, thinking about it, there may not be no other reasons to do it.
In the end, Celia still failed to refuse Sekenxi's request. Under her absolute strength, she could only compromise.
Sekensi got what she wanted, turned around and left the tree hole without any regrets, as if the flirting with the witch just now was an illusion.
Celia stared at its back coldly, and said for a long time, "Come out."
Zuo Si came out of the cabinet, but didn't take the initiative to speak.
"You have seen it all." Celia affirmed, she turned her head to look at Zuo Si and said in a deep voice, "So I want to kill Sekenxi, I see hope in you."
Sure enough, he is regarded as a tool man, yes, there is no such thing as a pie in the sky, it must be of value for him to be used.
"Miss Celia is a member of the Sea God Cult, how could she be afraid of a little Earl?"
The Sea God Sect is believed by most of the skeletons in the Underworld. If the skeletons hate ghosts, then their belief is the Sea God Sect.
Even though it only appeared for a few hundred years, it was successfully trusted by the skeletons, which shows the strength of the Sea God Cult.
"Now that things have happened, I don't hide some things anymore." Celia explained: "The Sea God Cult is being watched by the two empires, and it affects the whole body. Matters that belong to the land can only be resolved by the land itself."
She wanted to ask the bishop to send someone down, but that was impossible.
The task given to her by the bishop is to control Dolan County, and she has the final say on how to control it, so killing Sekensi does not conflict with the task.
It's just a pity that the situation in Dolan County is relatively difficult. The city lord under Sekenxi has not been changed for a long time, and it is almost a stagnant pool, so it is difficult to betray it.
Even Myerson is a guy who doesn't see the rabbit and doesn't scatter the eagle. She can only seek a breakthrough from the bottom skeleton.
Of course, what is more important is the prophecy of His Excellency the Pope, finding that outsider will change the pattern of the Underworld.
It is said that the outsider will appear from the bottom, become a big boss with lightning speed, and then fight against the underworld.
Zuo Si didn't know what was going on in her heart, he got a piece of news from her words, in Minghai, the forces of all parties are very restrained, and it's not something that can be moved by anyone.
The higher the level, the more this is the reason why the pattern of Minghai has not changed for many years.
"It seems that I am very important to Miss Celia."
Even now, Celia does not deny it: "That's right."
She planned for many years before supporting Marin, but in the end, Zuo Si was killed halfway, which disrupted her plan. Now she either supports a pawn again, or chooses to cooperate with Zuo Si.
But at present, it seems that it is impossible for her to completely control Zuo Si, and this is also the point of her hesitation.
Do you really want to cooperate with Zuo Si?Will there be too many variables?Of course, if he is the outsider, even if it is an equal cooperation, it is not a bad idea.
Celia's eyes flickered: "Where did Mr. Zuo come from before his death?"
During his lifetime?Zuo Si was stunned for a moment, then said, "Jiaotuo Empire."
The original owner was indeed born in the Joto Empire, but he never met his parents, was an orphan, and was brought home by an old sailor, and began his sea life until his death.
Not lying, the witch looked at the energy ball, also called a lie detector ball, that appeared in her palm at some point.
The Tuo Empire is a very small country in the Simon Continent, and most people may not be able to pronounce this name, that is to say, he is not an outsider.
Celia put away the energy alley: "You didn't drink the potion, according to the usual practice, I won't cooperate with you..."
"Did Myerson drink?" Zuo Si interrupted her directly, while guessing what the energy ball was.
Celia: "..."
It seems that there is no, so why must he drink it?
"Everything he took from me cost money."
"I can also spend money." Rather than selling myself for cooperation, money transactions may be more appropriate.
Anyone who wants to buy witch's stuff can't buy it, otherwise there won't be so many people wandering outside the tree hole, and they can't even get in.
Even if you can buy it, there is a certain amount, and it is impossible to provide unlimited.
"Did you know that you can only use life bones to buy things from Witch Island?"
Witches are not interested in gold coins and treasures, they only want life bones.
He felt that the life bone must play a vital role in the resurrection of the sea god in the future, but that was too long ago, and it was not something he could manage now.
"nature."
"Cooperation is fine."
Celia finally let go: "But you must kill Sekensi within a year, or I will kill you."
Her face was full of hatred, it seemed that killing Sekensi was more important than any task.
It's normal to feel hatred for the lady witch who has always been aloof and praised by others.
[Drip~ The side mission, the cooperation with the witch Celia has been completed, and the reward is [-] gold coins. 】
Before Zuo Si had time to curl his mouth, the system said [Release side mission...]
again?It can't be so difficult to complete a task, and then another one, right?
[Become the Earl of Dolan County within one year, reward [-] gold coins for success, and deduct [-] gold coins for failure. 】
It turned out to be a time-limited task, and the punishment was doubled.
Zuo Si pursed his lips and said, "I've accepted this task."
"Very good, happy cooperation."
