Chapter 228 The Situation of the Saints
He suppressed the impulse to look down on Lucilla, and forced a peaceful smile on his face and said: "Miss Lucilla, I don't mean to drag you into the water.
"You don't have to test me."
"My words are my true thoughts."
Lucilla was still hesitant.
She didn't believe the old fox in front of her.
If it was a war without becoming a god, facing her ability, there was a high probability that she would expose her true thoughts in her heart because of arrogance.
However, now the two are no longer in the same position.
Her internal strength is not so useful.
Shadow saw Lucilla's worry.
He understood that Lucilla didn't want to offend the gambler.
But the bribery had been established, and it was only a matter of time before Lucilla was instigated by him.
So he was not in a hurry now.
Just when Lucilla was silent, Lu Xiao behind her couldn't help it.
He came up and stood next to Shadow.
Lu Xiao's eyes fell on Lucilla's delicate face.
He stretched out his tongue to lick the saliva at the corner of his mouth, and said to Shadow: "Is this your friend? "
Shadow nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, this noble lady is my friend."
Lu Xiao nodded with some regret, and sighed in his heart: "Friends of friends are friends, friends can't be eaten, alas~~"
Then he looked at Lucilla again.
He squeezed out a smile that he thought was handsome and said, "This beautiful lady."
"Nice to meet you, my name is Lu Xiao, a smile with a smile."
After introducing himself, he rubbed the corner of his clothes as if he was a little embarrassed.
"You smell so good, can I have a lick?"
Lucilla: "? ? ? "
The beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and the arrogance on her face became more obvious.
The tall and straight nose twitched slightly, and then said arrogantly: "Verbally provoking the nobles is a capital crime! "
Yingzi only felt a headache at this time.
At this time, he had a deeper understanding of the director's words "keep an eye on Lu Xiao".
But no matter how much of a headache he had, he couldn't let Lucila attack Lu Xiao.
Now he didn't think Lucila was Lu Xiao's opponent.
He was afraid that Lu Xiao would tear Lucila into pieces, which would affect his plan.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and broke off another finger and handed it to Lu Xiao.
He smiled at Lu Xiao and said, "You go and protect He Shang, don't let him be in any danger."
This move of his was a double entendre.
Since it could prevent Lu Xiao from attacking Lucila, it could also prevent He Shang from being in danger.
Lu Xiao naturally didn't know Yingzi's thoughts. He patted his chest, making a "bang bang bang" sound.
"Leave it to me. "
Lu Xiao knew that if you take someone's money, you have to do your best to help them.
So he didn't bother about licking it.
He turned and trotted to He Shang's side, looking around vigilantly, as if on guard.
Shadow breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Lucilla with an apologetic look.
"I'm sorry, my friend rarely interacts with people, so his words may be a little inexplicable."
"You should have noticed that he has no ill intentions."
After hearing Shadow's words, Lucilla turned her head and snorted.
Obviously, she was very dissatisfied with what Lu Xiao said just now.
But due to Shadow's strength, even an arrogant person like her had to compromise.
Shadow continued to persuade: "Don't worry, I will never compete with gamblers for the position of the chief. "
He knew that Lucilla's concern was about standing in line.
In the past, among the saints, Nicolaide was the only god, and there was an unknown master above him, so there would naturally be no problem of standing in line.
Even if everyone had their own thoughts, they could not show them in front of Nicolaide.
At most, they could trip him up in secret.
But now it's different.
Niklaide fell, and the gambler and the pope became gods.
The two people who already had their own thoughts would naturally compete with each other.
As for Cthulhu, whom they openly believed in, it is unknown whether he is dead or alive.
The remaining people naturally need to choose a side.
But the gambler beat up the pope in front of everyone, which proved that he was the most powerful god among the saints.
As long as they are not stupid, naturally no one will stand in the pope's team.
And the current situation has become more complicated because of his deification.
The shadow became a god by completing the god ceremony by himself, at least in Lucilla's eyes.
Then the saint's character will inevitably change.
If you stand on the wrong side at this time, the outcome is self-evident.
But Shadow couldn't openly tell the story of his dealings with the gambler.
Who would have thought that the two leaders of such a cult organization were both rebellious and had ulterior motives.
Lucilla didn't answer in a hurry, but put the finger handed by Shadow into her mouth.
She sucked it gently for a moment, then chewed it and swallowed it directly into her stomach.
The flesh and blood of the gods is still very useful to her.
Although it can't make her become a god directly, it can also make her god-making ceremony go more smoothly.
Now that Nicolaide has fallen, he has lost the possibility of being endowed with divinity and becoming a god. If he wants to become a god, he can only complete the god-making ceremony by himself.
This is also the reason why she is hesitant now.
Because Shadow used the flesh and blood of the gods to bribe her, which made her unable to refuse.
Of course, she can also go to the gambler to ask for his flesh and blood.
But according to the gambler's temperament, Lucilla was sure that the gambler would gamble his life with her on the spot.
Shadow looked at Lucilla's enjoyment and knew in his heart that the deal had been made.
It was nothing more than increasing the bargaining chips.
As long as He Shang could join the Saints, any price would be worth it.
As expected.
After a while, Lucilla looked at Shadow, and the arrogance on her face faded.
"Mr. War, can you tell me why you asked him to join the Saints?"
Shadow nodded. There was nothing to hide about this.
Because the next thing would inevitably be known to other members of the Saints.
He said calmly: "I want to start the godhood ceremony for my students."
Hearing Shadow's words, Lucilla looked at him deeply and said.
"Mr. War, I hope you didn't lie to me."
"Otherwise I will be very vengeful."
Shadow nodded, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and said with a smile: "Beautiful Miss Lucilla, how could I bear to lie to you?"
Seeing that his ability had no effect on Shadow, Lucilla also gave up the temptation.
She knew that the most important thing she should do at this moment was to ask for more.
Thinking of this, she smiled.
She raised her hand to put her hair behind her ears, and said, "Mr. War, my godhood ritual has also reached a critical step."
Shadow nodded, indicating that he understood.
He pointed to the direction of the plane crash in the distance and said,
"Go there and look for it. You won't be disappointed."
As Lucila's psychological defenses relaxed, Shadow activated his ability.
