Chapter 1072 Someone Is More Anxious than Us
Mistress Cynthia agreed so neatly, and she also had ideas.
According to the information collected in the past two days, the conservative nobles have been wiped out by the imperial army.
Agreeing to Bai Xiaowen's conditions is tantamount to shaking hands with the empire. Otherwise, in the case of isolation and helplessness, it is only a matter of time before the drow army is destroyed in the face of the imperial army.
Moreover, the drow have always had the characteristic of turning faces faster than turning books, and it will not be too late to play by ear after cheating the antidote.
Let this human boy be proud for a while now. It's okay for Knossolis' army to go to the Northland province, but it's impossible for this little white-faced leader to use the antidote to tie the elite tribesmen to the Northland and give him a lifetime job. Mistress Cynthia thought so.
Li Shuyi whispered in the team channel: "Xiaowen, do you want to sign a notarized contract with these drow? Verbal promises are too unreliable."
Bai Xiaowen could only smile wryly in secret. If possible, signing a notarized contract is of course the safest thing to do. For people in the spirit world, the notarized contract of the rules of the spirit world is equivalent to an oath made to the gods they believe in, and if they are violated, they will have to pay a high cost.
However, the gods that the drow believe in are very special. As a moody evil god, Rose, the Queen of Spiders, likes calculating believers the most. To tear up the contract for profit is in line with the teachings of the Spider Queen.
In short, never trust a drow oath. A sinister and cunning drow will even try to please the Spider Queen by going back on her word (provided the profit is considerable).
However, Bai Xiaowen is not guilty of not signing a notarized contract.
Everyone is not bound by an oath. In the next cooperation, who can have the last laugh and get the most benefits depends on their own wrists.
When they arrived in the Northland and came to Bai Xiaowen's territory, these drow elves could not turn the sky at all.
"I wish us a happy cooperation." Mistress Cynthia condescended and shook hands with Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "By the way, as a testimony of our friendship, I can give you a piece of information to your mistress for free."
"What information?"
"There is a newly promoted priestess in the Knossolis tribe who disappeared during the war. There must be such a thing." Bai Xiaowen laughed.
"...how do you know?" Mistress Cynthia was full of doubts,
She suffered a big loss in the Battle of Besuwei, and Camilla—actually Camille the Awakened—just happened to disappear, which naturally aroused her suspicion.
If it wasn't for the fact that no one could be found, Mistress Cynthia would have tortured her to extract a confession, and she would have found out about Camilla's problem.
"Actually, this priestess is not the original character, she was replaced by an outsider." Bai Xiaowen sold Camille, and said without any psychological pressure, "This outsider, and Bosu Duke Wei's eldest son, August, is an ally. They are all serving the Plague Lord."
"How is it possible?" Mistress Cynthia frowned, and she couldn't help thinking about the abnormalities before and after "Camila" passed the test of the Spider Queen.
It seems that there is really such a little coincidence?
The suspicion of the drow elves is vividly reflected in Mistress Cynthia. A little doubt, as long as it finds plausible clues to support it, it will quickly magnify. What's more, what Bai Xiaowen said was the truth.
Bai Xiaowen continued: "So, your priestess colluded with the Plague Lord to plan such a shocking trap. Their original plan was to infect all the Western Expeditionary Army of the Empire and the drow elves, and become the Plague Lord's subordinates." The plague undead. The difference with you is that the empire saw through their plan and was not fooled."
Mistress Cynthia's face was hot, and the shame and anger in her heart could be imagined.
Based on the racial characteristics of the drow elves, what they like most is to calculate others, and what they hate most is being calculated by others.
"I will find Camila, and I will make her regret coming to this world!" Mistress Cynthia said through gritted teeth.
"Hehe, it's very unlikely that your idea will come true, because Camilla and her companions have already turned to the Lord of the Plague. If my guess is right, they should appear in the extreme north next." The crime domain of the earth, that is, the domain of the Lord of Plague."
Bai Xiaowen looked at Mistress Cynthia: "Let me just say it straight, you won't find her at all unless you conquer the crime domain."
"do not worry."
Mistress Cynthia said with a gloomy expression, "I will go to the Northland, no one can fool me, no one can fool the Knossolis tribe!"
"Then please leave as soon as possible. The polymaths under my command need to obtain the latest samples of the undead plague before they can start developing the antidote." Bai Xiaowen said.
Leaving Besuwei Castle, Li Shuyi whispered:
"Xiaowen, that Camille helped us anyway, won't your conscience hurt if you betray her like this?"
"Nope."
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile: "What cares about the hatred of a person in the spirit world? No matter how much Mistress Cynthia hates her, can she still be killed? At most, drive her out of Kane."
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said: "Besides, it is beneficial to me and her that Camille leaves Kane early. Otherwise, as the opposing parties, what should she do when they meet on the battlefield and have to make a move? Taking a shot is a meaningless internal friction, and if you keep your hand, it will be easy for other people in Shenting to see the clue."
It's not bad to use Camille's hatred to win over Mistress Cynthia.
Originally, Mistress Cynthia might have had resistance to going to the Northland Province, but with Camille's information breaking out, Mistress Cynthia had the motivation to take revenge, so she should be more proactive.
"Xiaowen, I still feel that the drow elves are unreliable. How long can they be obedient in the Northland?" Li Shuyi said.
"Until the antidote is made, they must be obedient." Bai Xiaowen blinked, "When the antidote is made, I have the final say."
Li Shuyi clutched her forehead: "I was defeated by you again... But, I can't drag it on forever."
Bai Xiaowen laughed loudly: "Shuyi, don't worry, it won't drag on forever... Someone is more anxious than us."
...
A dark basement.
The leaders of the Shenting training camp are having a secret meeting. Including the squad leader August, the deputy squad leader Richard, and the four leaders of the intelligence group, the suppression group, the attack group and the auxiliary group, a total of six people.
"Everyone, our grand unification plan has suffered serious setbacks. However, this does not mean anything. We still have the possibility of success."
The person who spoke was Andre, the leader of the intelligence team and the think tank of Class 129. He seems to have recovered from the blow of failure, with determination in his eyes:
"Now, our biggest problem is time! We must make a big move before the end of the main task time of the third stage!"
