Chapter 909

"If we ally with the Emilia camp, we will hand over part of the mining rights to the magic ore in the Elliot Forest, as well as information on the time and location of the white whale's appearance. At the same time, you can contact the merchant to join this operation .”

"..."

"If my guess is wrong, please correct me. If I'm wrong, it doesn't matter if I only trade the information of the white whale."

Even if he only has that information, he can still use it for his own interests. As long as he tells the merchants about the information, their evaluation of Crusch will also increase. This is the value of Moby Dick's information.

"However, if your goal is the same as mine."

Getting up from the sofa, Noel raised his right hand and stretched it forward, looking at Crusch with a smile.

Take this hand, prove the value of the future Noel sees, remove the wall in the middle.

"Go and kill the white whale, let's kill it together."

Destroy that alien, nightmarishly powerful monster.

Get rid of traveling merchants as a symbol of disaster.

Noel formally proposed to Crusch that he should subdue the Mist Demon Beast.

"Let me ask you a question."

Overlooking Noel's outstretched hand, Crusch raised a finger towards him.

Noel's intuition is that this question is the last hurdle for Crusch to prepare.

"Is it true that you... know when and where the white whale appeared?"

"Well, it's true."

Speaking decisively, Noel gave the answer to Crusch's question.

Staring at Noel with sharp eyes, Crusch didn't notice any abnormality in the end, no matter whether it was his own talent or the other's expression.

"Although there are still a few doubts, it's amazing to be able to see through my thoughts."

Exhaling lightly, Crusch closed his eyes, as if making up his mind, and replied.

"I have doubts, doubts, and many doubts, so it's hard to nod immediately. But..."

Crusch lowered his hand with five fingers close together, and directly covered Noel's hand.

Noel's outstretched hand firmly overlapped Crusch's thin white fingers.

"I decided to believe in your courage and my eyes that created this situation."

That's right, the negotiation was successful!

Seeing the scene where the two shook hands, Emilia drooped her shoulders exaggeratedly, and she breathed a sigh of relief after pretending to be calm.

Soon the two let go of their hands and returned to their seats.

"Can you tell me the information now? Of course, you don't need to tell me everything, but at least tell me how much time is left, so that I can prepare for my people."

"There is still about a day and a half before the white whale appears. Excluding the time to rush to the location, there is only one day left for tomorrow. The time is very tight."

"Well, time is really tight."

After finishing speaking, he lightly tapped the armrest of the seat with his index finger rhythmically, Crusch frowned slightly and thought.

Phyllis and Wilhelm stood quietly on the left and right behind Kursho without making a sound, while Emilia and her group sitting opposite her waited patiently.

Well, except for one person.

Noel was the only one, his eyes wandered around the living room, with an indifferent look, and he was not in a hurry because of time constraints.

After a while, Crusch spoke.

"According to previous records, my current manpower alone is far from enough, and there is only one day left to prepare, even if I recruit people, I won't be able to recruit many people."

"Can that mobilize the kingdom's army?"

Emilia asked without thinking.

Glancing at Emilia, Crusch shook his head.

"There is no definite evidence that the monster of fog will appear. It is impossible to mobilize the kingdom's army just by guessing. What's more, no candidate has the right to mobilize the army during the king's election, unless there is an invasion from another country or some special event occurs. And it has to be proven.”

"Miss Crusch, you must have thought of a solution, I'm right."

Putting the teacup back on the negotiating table, Noel had seen that Crusch had his own plans, otherwise he wouldn't have said it.

Of course, the reason why she said this is nothing more than that her method needs to be approved by others, and things that need to be approved by others must have something to do with another candidate.

With a slight smile, Crusch didn't intend to beat around the bush, and got straight to the point.

"Anastacia has not left the capital so far, and she has a mercenary regiment belonging to her. I believe she will be interested in the Mist Demon Beast."

"You mean, you want Anastasia to join the group and use her mercenary group to fight against the white whale, and she, who often does business in the capital, can also help you contact other businessmen. Can I understand that?"

"Yes, that's what I intend to do."

Crusch nodded in acknowledgment, then fixed his eyes on Noel, waiting for his answer.

Noel really doesn't care if one more candidate joins, but he has to think about Emilia, and he can't just agree to it rashly.

Looking at Emilia, she was about to ask her opinion softly, but her mouth opened slightly...

"I have no problem, let Anastasia join."

Emilia spoke first, and directly agreed to Crusch's proposal.

Noel was stunned, and Crusch opened his mouth slightly in surprise. He really didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

You must know that Anastasia was not very friendly to Emilia in the meeting three days ago, but now she can decisively agree to cooperate with her, how can it not be surprising.

"I know what you are thinking, but if there is one more candidate as my witness, no one will be able to erase the honor I deserve, and Anastasia, who is a businessman, can better explain things To spread the word, I have no reason not to agree to such a thing that kills two birds with one stone."

"It seems that I underestimated you before."

Crusch clapped his hands, applauding Emilia, and continued.
