Chapter 381 Temptation

Orson City, inside Han Shuo's own mansion.

As soon as Han Shuo returned to the Earl's mansion, the housekeeper Callas reported directly to Han Shuo that the third prince, Lawrence, had been waiting for him.

His Majesty Utred of the Lancelot Empire originally had three princes, the eldest prince Charles, the second prince Cyril, and the youngest prince Beverly. Noble, the little prince is only fifteen years old, and he is only half a child.

After Lawrence's identity was made public, he became the third prince, but this third prince was only what everyone called him on the surface, and only those people knew how to slander him secretly.

As soon as Han Shuo returned to the Earl's Mansion, he learned that Lawrence was waiting for him from the butler Callas, and he couldn't help but marvel at Lawrence's well-informed information. Entering Orson City from Brettle City, Han Shuo only went to the Babylon School of Magic and Martial Arts and the Dark Mantle Headquarters, and never showed his face in front of others. There are also sensitive information channels.

Compared to the previous cheerfulness, Lawrence's face was a little darker. I don't know if it was because of the unsatisfactory life of the past few days. Lawrence's temperament became more cold, but after seeing Han Shuo walk in, he still looked like a big boy. Come over with a smile and hug Han Shuo.

After talking with Candida, Han Shuo gained a new understanding of Lawrence's foresight and foresight. Seeing Lawrence embracing Han Shuo, Han Shuo also had a look of joy, and he hugged Lawrence tightly, laughing loudly. Lawrence greeted with greetings.

Come over to say hello. Han Shuo waved the servant who brought the snacks away, took a sip of the fragrant tea from the south of the Oden Empire, and then looked at Lawrence. Said: "Not long after, I didn't expect the situation to have reached this point."

"Bryan, you finally have news. During this period of time, my life in the imperial capital was very difficult. Charles has been running on me. In the imperial capital, apart from my adoptive father and uncle Boris, no nobles support me. Hey , because my status is rather embarrassing. I know those nobles look down on me. However, this situation cannot be avoided by me, otherwise Charles and the others will definitely not let me go." Lawrence did not say anything hypocritical, and straight to the point he faced The dilemma was revealed to Han Shuo.

Among the other three princes, the eldest prince Charles has the support of the grand duke Ashburn, and his mother is still the queen, making him the most promising successor to the throne. The second prince, Cyril, has a good relationship with the nobles in the imperial capital on weekdays. He seems kind and knows how to buy people's hearts. There are also a group of nobles around him who support him.

Although the little prince Beverly is still a child and a half. But his mother is the woman His Majesty loves the most now, and there is that woman who has been whispering in His Majesty's ears. Uhtred seems to love Beverly very much. In addition, Beverly's grandfather was also the marquis of Bimson City in the north, and the power of his grandfather's family should not be underestimated.

In fact, the third prince, Lawrence, who stepped in sideways,

If it wasn't for his embarrassing status, with the support of his father and uncle, and his master is the sword master Corolla, he would actually have some bargaining chips. It's a pity because of his status as an illegitimate child. These are not too heavy chips. Can't bring him any guarantee at all.

From Candida, Han Shuo knew that Mrs. Grace, an old astrologer, had a decisive voice. The reason why Lawrence's teacher, Carola, didn't make a statement, seemed to be waiting for the astrologer Mrs. Grace. Lawrence didn't seem to know about this matter. Han Shuo came over and listened to Lawrence's sighing narration.

After a while, Han Shuo said, "I just came back from the Dark Mantle and got a very important piece of news. There is a veteran astrologer Mrs. Grace in the Dark Mantle. She can bring you great benefits with a single word. The reason why your master The delay in making a statement may also be out of consideration for the overall situation of the Lancelot Empire..."

After Han Shuo described what he saw and heard in the Dark Mantle to Lawrence, Lawrence frowned and pondered for a while, then looked deeply at Han Shuo and said, "Thank you Brian, this news is very important, Mrs. Grace is my father's private divination Teacher, I have heard some rumors about her, but astrology is too illusory, so I have to prepare early anyway."

Nodding his head, Han Shuo understood that for some people who are passionate about power, that kind of mysterious astrology cannot be something they care too much about. Taking this incident as an example, and the old astrologer Grace saying that Lawrence could bring prosperity to the Lancelot Empire, the other three princes would certainly not be caught without a fight, and were willing to give up the throne to Lawrence.

Mysterious astrology is only part of it. For those victors who are fighting for power, they are by no means willing to bow their heads to fate. Lawrence is exactly this kind of character. Hearing what he said, Han Shuo couldn't help but secretly nodded in his heart, thinking of Lawrence Han Shuo knew that Lawrence was not easy to deal with.

However, Han Shuo’s choice was Lawrence. The harder Lawrence was to deal with Han Shuo, the more at ease he felt. Hearing this, he nodded with a smile and said, “Don’t worry, no matter what the final outcome of astrology, I and my city of Brettle will stand together. On your side. No matter what kind of prophecy or divination he has, we have to fight him, hehe, of course, if the situation is in our favor, it will naturally be better."

"Thank you, Brian. If I can succeed to the throne, you will be the only giant in the dark curtain in the future." Lawrence solemnly promised Han Shuo.

"I don't look at your promises in the future. I will spare no effort to help you based on your previous help to me and the friendship between the two of us." Han Shuo smiled and explained to Lawrence that the future is always the hardest thing to say. Nothing is absolute, and future guarantees are as illusory as astrology.

"Well, it looks like I should start with Mrs. Grace. Although I know it may be futile, I still need to try." Lawrence understood that for Mrs. Grace and people like Corolla, Lancelot was his favorite The future of the special empire, not the rise of a certain one.

After Lawrence received Han Shuo's assurance, he let go of the big stone in his heart. He discussed some details with Han Shuo, and then left from Han Shuo.

When Lawrence left for a while, Han Shuo couldn't help but frowned. He walked out of the hall and looked at the opposite roof, as if muttering to himself, "He has already left, why are you still here?"

As soon as these words fell, a shadow fell from the opposite roof, and Bollands, whom he had seen in the rose garden last time, suddenly appeared in front of Han Shuo. A strong smell of blood mixed with murderous intent slowly drifted away. Flooded in all directions of Han Shuo.

The old killer Bollands, whose face was covered with scars and looked terrifying, had been dormant there since Lawrence entered Han Shuo's mansion. When Han Shuo came over, he first sensed the strong smell of blood on Bollands' body. Han Shuo Shuo understood that Bollands' purpose was to protect Lawrence, so he didn't care about his existence.

However, after Lawrence finished talking with Han Shuo, when Bollands was supposed to leave according to reason, Han Shuo found that he did not leave with Lawrence, so he came out strangely and questioned Bollands as if talking to himself.

"How could you find out my exact location?" Bollands asked Han Shuo with some doubts, his eyes focused on Han Shuo, his whole body filled with murderous aura.

Han Shuo knew that it was because his hands were covered with blood, and because of his deliberate practice of this aspect, the murderous aura naturally diffused. It was not because he had murderous intentions in his heart. With a slight smile, Han Shuo said, "You have a murderous aura on your body. It’s too heavy, and you don’t know how to completely conceal the aura on your body, so you can naturally be sensed by the strong, hehe, I think you shouldn’t be a killer since you started practicing murderous aura, right?”

The murderous aura of the top killer must be completely hidden, only in this way can the target be killed with one blow before the target reacts. Bollands used to be the top killer, but later he obviously focused on and studied the use of murderous aura, and the murderous aura gradually became stronger and uncontrollable, and the smell of blood on his body became heavier and heavier. For a top killer, this is a flaw.

Bolandz couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, and then he said: "Yes, when I found that the aura on my body could not be hidden, I stopped being a killer, but my murderous aura can destroy the enemy's will in actual combat. I can have an absolute advantage in a battle with guns of the same strength, even if there are two, it may not be my opponent."

This person is a good seed. With his physical condition, he will get twice the result with half the effort. If Han Shuo carefully guides him, he can become a great person with the strength of a god-killing devil. Advance by leaps and bounds.

"Actually, I have a way to hide the murderous aura on your body, and I also have a better way to control and use it. Hehe, your way of groping alone has some similarities with the martial arts I practice. If you practice according to my method , will be able to greatly improve the strength in a short period of time, and there is also unlimited potential for expansion.” Han Shuo suddenly remembered that Uhtred had asked him to spread his martial arts widely, and this Bolandz is a suitable candidate , but the only thing that made Han Shuo a little worried was the relationship between Bollands and Juggernaut Corolla.

As long as Bollands has practiced the god-killing and demonic way taught by Han Shuo, Han Shuo is fully confident that he can control Bollands and make Bollands his loyal minion in the future, so Han Shuo began to test it.
