Chapter 393 The little temple demon is so powerful
Just when the two waiters didn't dare to breathe and the atmosphere became increasingly tense, a voice suddenly rang out in the room.
"That's enough, you two. This is Great Britain."
It was George VII, and of course he couldn't just sit there and watch Russell and Apache, two masters, fighting each other.
His Majesty the King is also helpless at the moment. Although he knows that there have been dirty dealings between the Indo-American Federation and the Ming Dynasty before, he did not expect that the two would be so tense.
And judging from what Apache said just now, there might be other hidden stories behind what happened before.
But things have come to this point. Neither the Ming Dynasty nor the Indo-American Federation are people that Great Britain can afford to offend at the moment, so George VII can only bite the bullet and go for it.
But unfortunately, neither of the two people present seemed willing to give him face.
Needless to say, Russell had been very restrained in not taking direct action, considering the other party had provoked him first and what happened with the Skinner.
The Apache
The master-level warrior from the Indo-American Federation put away the smile on his face and just stared at Russell expressionlessly.
Seeing this, George VII's expression gradually turned cold.
Just when he was about to say something, he suddenly raised his hands to cover his mouth and nose and looked at the waiter beside him.
The waiter was frightened to death.
Under the strange gazes of Russell and the others, George VII said to another waiter with a dark face: "Take him away."
Soon, the two waiters disappeared from the sight of the three master card makers.
However, after this incident, the atmosphere at the scene eased a little.
Apache smiled a little again and took the initiative to say, "Don't be nervous. I won't do anything easily without Lord Edley's permission."
"Tsk..." Hearing this, Russell couldn't help but curl his lips, but didn't say anything.
The other party has already brought up Adley, so he is not planning to do anything right now. Even if he really wants to take action, he has to find a time when there is no one around.
Although Russell felt that he could win in a one-on-two situation, he just considered it as giving face to George VII.
What's more, he is not a superhero, and he has no grudges against Great Britain in the past or present, so there is no need to be so reckless.
Thinking of this, Russell ignored the Apache on the side and said to George VII: "Your Majesty, please lead the way to the conference room to discuss today's business."
At this time, George VII's face lightened up after seeing the atmosphere gradually eased, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
To be honest, he had just made preparations to evacuate the people of Great Britain. After all, the scope of the fight between two masters was really too wide.
Not to mention that there are super-standard people like Russell among them.
Fortunately, there was no fight in the end.
Thinking of this, George VII turned around and walked in front of Russell and the other man, temporarily acting as a waiter to lead the way: "Please come in, both of you."
Soon, under his leadership, a hall specially used for meetings appeared in Russell's eyes.
What the young man didn't expect was that the conference hall of Great Britain was actually made of pure stone, and there was even a lot of moss on it.
However, each country has its own customs. Maybe Great Britain just likes this primitive style.
Russell suppressed the strange emotions in his heart and followed George VII into the conference room.
After the three of them sat down, the host, George VII, spoke first: "First of all, I would like to thank Ming Dynasty and the Federation for still being willing to lend a helping hand in such a situation."
"You will be the eternal friends of Great Britain."
Although it is a transaction, you still have to put in the necessary superficial effort.
What are eternal friends?
Just listen to it, none of the three people present would believe it.
After a few polite words, George VII chose to get straight to the point: "There are now three master-level secret realms on the land of Great Britain."
"I hope you two can help me suppress them all."
Now that we have decided to accept aid from other countries, we must do it once and for all.
It would be too stupid to choose to leave a tail just to save some compensation.
After George VII finished stating his request, he kept silent and looked at Russell and the other man quietly, obviously waiting for them to make their request.
To be honest, Russell was at a disadvantage in this negotiation because he didn't know the strength of Apache, while Apache had a certain understanding of him.
If Apache could suppress multiple secret realms alone like him, then Russell would not be able to ask for such a high price.
But I think the probability of that happening is not high.
After a moment of silence, Apache smiled and spoke first, "I just need a set of master-level materials."
Upon hearing his conditions, George VII raised his eyebrows, seeming a little surprised.
It's not that it's too high, but it's a bit too low.
Then he turned his gaze to Russell, obviously wanting to hear his conditions.
Noticing George VII's gaze, Russell began to think expressionlessly.
Apache's move undoubtedly limited the reward he could obtain, which could be described as hurting the enemy by 800 and hurting his own by 1,000.
The young man was now certain that the reason why the Indo-American Federation agreed to Great Britain's request was probably not for profit.
Or maybe it's not just for profit, part of the reason is probably to disgust him.
"It seems that the Skinner is more important than the teachers guessed."
The woman with the feather crown was able to get Adley to rescue her, so it is obvious that her status in the Indo-American Federation is not low, but considering the current situation, I am afraid her identity is even more complicated.
George VII naturally noticed the key to this. Although there was no emotional fluctuation on his face, he hoped in his heart that Russell and the Apache would fight as fiercely as possible.
After all, that is in the interests of Great Britain.
But unfortunately, Russell is not as simple as they think.
He just said one sentence lightly, and Apache's expression froze: "I can suppress it by myself."
Russell's meaning was simple, that is, he didn't need Apache's help.
And assuming that what he said was true, Great Britain could undoubtedly save the payment of the Indo-American Federation.
George VII obviously thought of this, so he stopped being silent and said seriously, "Lord Luo, this is not something you can joke about."
Since Great Britain and Ming Dynasty are far apart, the King's intelligence about Russell is still limited to the time when he expelled the palace-level demon and successfully survived for a minute under the command of [Golden Embryo] Motian.
In his opinion, although Russell's record is indeed very impressive, it is somewhat cheating.
After all, methods like expulsion and sealing are helpless actions when there is no other choice.
As for the fact that he managed to hold out for a minute under the command of [Golden Embryo] Motian
Because he didn't know what exactly happened at that time, George VII had no way to make a judgment.
Therefore, Russell said that he was stronger than Thaksin, but it was still a bit arrogant to say that he could suppress all the master-level secret realms on the land of Great Britain by himself.
However, although he thought so in his heart, George VII did not show any distrust on the surface.
He just shook his head slightly and said, "I appreciate Mr. Luo's kindness, but that's a bit too much work."
"And I can't let Sir Apache make this trip in vain."
At this point, the King of Great Britain paused, and after a brief thought, he continued, "How about this, Lord Luo."
"After this is done, you and Sir Apache can both choose six master-level materials from the Great Britain material library. How about that?"
After saying this, he looked at Russell and Apache with a questioning look. George VII's choice was not to offend either side.
But to be honest, even if he believed Russell's words, he would still make this choice in the end. Now Great Britain, which is in a period of transition, can only survive cautiously in the cracks like this.
Apache did not react to the fact that he could get more compensation. He was now thinking about Russell.
As the younger brother of the Skinner, he naturally knew more than anyone else what happened when the Four Evil Gods invaded.
The reason why Lord Edley chose to give in was entirely because the [Supreme Mecha God] was suppressing the palace-level secret realm in Antarctica, otherwise how could a mere master-level card maker have the chance to be so presumptuous.
If Apache were to say, his master was too soft-hearted. The affairs of Antarctica had nothing to do with the Federation. If something really went wrong, would the other top-level card makers on Blue Planet just leave it alone?
Thinking of this, the brown-skinned man raised his head and looked at Russell beside him, and curled his lips slightly.
Obviously, neither George VII nor Apache knew what happened in the rebel secret realm, otherwise they would not have such an idea.
After hearing the compromise plan proposed by George VII, Russell did not think much about it and quickly agreed to it.
“You get paid as much as you can.”
This is what the young man is thinking at the moment. He is here to be a mercenary anyway. Since the employer has chosen him, he will not say much.
Russell will naturally do what he should do, as for the extra things
I guess George VII didn't want him to do it either.
Seeing that both the Ming Dynasty and the Federation agreed to his proposal, George VII couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Next, as long as the three master-level secret realms in the country are destroyed, Great Britain will be able to barely catch its breath.
Thinking of this, he said very seriously: "I'll trouble you two with the rest of the work."
"Your Majesty, you're welcome."
The deal was done, and Russell returned to his residence to prepare for the subsequent battle.
That night.
Just as Russell closed his eyes to rest, a strange breath caused him to open his eyes suddenly.
"Who?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a graceful female figure appeared in the room.
Looking at the appearance of the person coming, Russell couldn't help but frowned slightly: "You are..."
"Charlotte?"
He recognized the identity of the person who came. It was Princess Charlotte who was fighting with Leon.
At the same time, Russell also knew that behind this princess was the Apache of the Indo-American Federation.
Thinking of this, his expression suddenly became playful: "It's so late, why did your highness come to see me?"
Seeing that her identity had been exposed, Charlotte immediately took off her hood.
In other words, she had never intended to hide her identity.
Facing Russell's question, Charlotte bent her swan-like neck and asked respectfully, "Your Majesty Russell, I wonder what benefits my brother promised you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell into silence.
After a long time, Russell's voice sounded again.
"all."
Hearing this, Charlotte's expression remained unchanged. She just said as if stating a fact: "Your Majesty, you know that is not realistic. After all, my brother does not have the qualifications."
"And His Majesty King George VII is still alive."
Russell certainly knew what Her Royal Highness the Princess had said.
He said this just to see how she would react: "Interesting. Why did you come to see me?"
"Your Majesty, I hope you can give up my stupid brother."
At this time, Charlotte raised her head, stared at Russell and continued, "I know the deal between Ming Dynasty and Tsarist Russia. If I can become the crown prince, then Great Britain can also exchange materials with Ming Dynasty."
"Of course, I only need you to give up my brother, not to support me."
Hearing this, Russell was really surprised.
He didn't expect that Charlotte not only had people in the Indo-American Federation, but also in Tsarist Russia.
It seems that no matter from which aspect, Her Royal Highness the Princess is indeed much stronger than Lyon.
Just like that, the house fell into silence again.
Seeing that Russell had not responded, Charlotte seemed to think that the conditions she proposed were not enough. After a brief thought, she said, "Your Majesty, I know that your relationship with the Federation is not good."
"I can't help you against them though."
"but."
"I can tell you everything you want to know, as long as I know it."
Hearing this, Russell couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked casually, "Even if I want to know the ability of Apache's cards, is that okay?"
For a card maker, card ability is undoubtedly the top priority.
After all, sometimes just a slight difference in information can lead a battle to a completely different outcome.
Hearing Russell's question, Charlotte was silent for a while before she said calmly, "Okay."
"But Master Apache is my elder, so."
Need to pay more.
At this moment, Russell could hardly suppress his smile. He looked at Charlotte with interest and asked, "What do you want me to do?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. It's just a simple matter." Charlotte shook her head slightly, "I just need you to support me when necessary."
Just as George VII did not place his hopes on one country when seeking support from other countries this time, Charlotte also wanted to ensure that she would not become a puppet of the Indo-American Federation after becoming the crown prince.
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty, which had always had a grudge against the Federation, came into her sight.
This is also why she came to find Russell tonight.
But Charlotte was also betting that Russell was interested in information about the Indo-American Federation.
Russell certainly understood Charlotte's idea, so he just said noncommittally: "You have a good plan."
After saying this, he closed his mouth.
This made Charlotte a little confused about the young man's attitude for a moment. Even though she was prepared for failure, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
After a long time, Russell's voice sounded again.
"Let's talk about the Indo-American Federation first."
"But if it's all unimportant information, forget it."
Hearing this, Charlotte was delighted, knowing that the matter was already mostly settled: "Yes, Your Majesty."
"federal."
