Chapter 3446 Compromise

Remember [new] in one second! Xu Yue successfully reached a consensus with Duke Negan.

In the face of life, Duke Negan still chose to compromise.

The two assassinations would have had a high success rate if not for various interferences. Especially the second time, he had already smelled the smell of death.

There is great terror between life and death.

What's more, this great nobleman is not satisfied with the prosperity of the world.

But he was going to slowly discuss with his colleagues how to break the situation, and he happened to have an appointment with Earl Hall. It would be best to get the support of the night, so that he would be more stable.

At the same time, Xu Yue has also revealed some information about Silver City, which aroused great interest in Duke Negan.

This assassination made him understand that only the power in his own hands is reliable, otherwise God knows how he will be let go next time.

Under the influence of the potion, he had a natural affinity for Xu Yue, not to mention the interests of Silver City.

At that moment, he agreed to sell a large area of ​​land in the Rhoside Islands as investment.

In addition to Duke Negan, Klein, who was rescued from the other side, couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that it was not Xu Yue who died.

Then he cooperated honestly with the investigation of the Church of Storms.

Because he was the one who discovered the devil dog in the first place, this time it was also because of the key that entered the scene and severely injured the opponent.

Therefore, the Church of Storms suppressed some of its irritability towards Klein and released him peacefully, but was asked not to leave Backlund in the near future...

…

"What's your expression? Are you feeling homesick?"

Xu Yue returned to Klein's house and saw that part of his spirituality had been restored and the treatment was generally completed. However, Klein, who was looking a little pale, was leaning on the table in a daze, and he couldn't help but ask seriously.

But this time, Klein did not refute Xu Yue, but sighed and said

"Do you think there are good people among witches?"

"Oh?"

Xu Yue said with a tense expression.

"You weren't worried about the other person before..."

"What? Women can also become witches."

Klein's face darkened.

Then he sighed and said

"To be honest, I just saw her for the first time today, but she almost died trying to save me. Although I know she must have some purpose for me, this kindness cannot be avoided."

"So you want to commit yourself to me? It's not just because I look good."

Xu Yue exposed Klein's lies.

"Only a guy like you who only thinks about women would be so superficial."

Klein retorted righteously.

"Oh, then thank me. If you guessed it correctly, I should be the one who turned into you when I came back."

Xu Yue did not continue to play. Otherwise, if Klein really got trapped and found out the truth, wouldn't he lose control on the spot and show it to him?

And even now, after hearing Xu Yue's words, Klein was petrified.

One cannot...

At least it shouldn't be...

"I am going to kill you!"

"Do you dare to say that after you became the Faceless One, you never thought of impersonating me?"

It's just that Klein just got angry here, and Xu Yue's words directly made him embarrassed.

Damn it, I really thought about it.

I had envied Instructor Franklin's reputation and convenience before, and thought about using it when I went to find the mermaid.

It's just that the more this happens, the more it makes Klein feel suffocated.

It feels like people are going to explode.

But after knowing the news in this way, everything can be explained completely.

No wonder the other party looked like this after seeing him!

"Wait a minute, wouldn't you treat your sister-in-law..."

"you shut up!"

"Then do you have to blame me for your repayment? Will you repay it in the next life?"

"shut up!"

"Are there any good people among the witches?"

"I told you to shut up!"

Obviously I am no longer a clown, but why can I still feel the potion being digested? Damn it!

I am the Faceless One, not the Joker!

Um? Can a faceless man become a clown?

Klein couldn't help but fell into deep thought for a moment...

…

After all, Klein finally emerged from the shadow of today through his transformation into a ragtag.

After all, today was the first time I met Tracey, and it was more lust than love at first sight.

"Scumbag."

Klein burped.

"Spit out what you ate today."

"I won't."

"Are there any good people among witches..."

"That's enough for you!"

Klein got so excited that he burped again, and he almost felt stomach acid rising.

Later, Klein also learned the name of the organization behind the Twilight Hermits from Xu Yue.

Knowing that Xu Yue was anti-prophecy and anti-divination, Klein still knew not to mention this name outside of Xu Yue's vicinity.

Of course, it should be no problem above the gray fog...

Duke Negan's assassination operation continued to cause waves.

Even though Duke Negan was not dead, precisely because he was not dead, the Duke who fully mobilized his power still perfectly embodied the deep-rootedness of the conservative aristocracy.

Assassination is an unacceptable crime for nobles. Coupled with the original influence of the Duke, the Loen royal family needs to make way for it at this time.

The Prime Minister, who is also a Conservative, also gave his full support, twisting the Conservative aristocrats into a ball.

In an instant, the underground organizations and criminals in Backlund were once again exposed, and the whole momentum was extremely huge.

In addition, Duke Negan also summoned powerful nobles such as Earl Hall to discuss several proposals.

Issues such as worker protection and climate improvement were all passed.

Passing the Worker Protection Act, while increasing protection, also increases the costs for factory owners and the nouveau riche. The same is true for climate improvement.

However, the minimum funding limit for elections that Duke Negan had always insisted on was unexpectedly relaxed.

Equivalent to an expanded range of valid votes.

Because this kind of compromise was originally a general trend, it didn't seem too abrupt.

Only a few shrewd nobles felt that this should be some kind of compromise by Duke Negan after the two assassinations.

In fact, this was originally Duke Negan's purpose. First, he would show his energy and charisma, and then take a step back.

If you fight for peace, then peace will exist!

It has failed twice, and now Duke Negan's protection has been increased again.

After he made a compromise, even some members of the Twilight Hermits felt that there was no need to continue.

Just be able to achieve the purpose.

Moreover, this action was not originally initiated by Adam, but was guided by some members of the Twilight Hermits.

It is natural to reach such a tacit consensus.

And precisely because Duke Negan has pushed hard for the passage of several bills, other ordinary factory owners have not benefited much yet due to worker costs and environmental issues.

At this time, we are struggling to control costs and recalculate and estimate profits.

But Lord De Vere, who came from Tingen and is now one of the members of Parliament, directly benefited the most.

Because he himself was dedicated to the welfare of the workers, and the Aurora Society also supported him under Xu Yue's hint.

However, his status in the hearts of workers is quite high. After the expansion of votes, his influence has greatly increased, and he can be regarded as the biggest beneficiary.

Even the Prime Minister now looks kind and cheerful to this new member of Parliament from Tingen...
