Chapter 979
"You just said that you are here on behalf of the Inhumans?" Aaron looked at the two of them with a half-smile, "Now you can say, what is the purpose?"
Gordon turned his head and looked at Lena with his eyes covered by skin, but hesitated to speak.
He was just a guard and not good at dealing with this kind of situation, so Jiaying gave Reina the right to negotiate.
Reina's expression was also uncertain, and she didn't know how to speak for a while.
Originally, she was full of confidence in this negotiation. Based on what she saw during the conversation between Aaron and Ultron, she was fully confident that she would be able to take control of the negotiation.
But who could have thought that things would develop like this?
Even if the threat was useless, it was a yin and yang game that was backhanded by the other party.
She has lived for more than twenty years and has never suffered such a loss, but she still can't find anyone to reason with her.
She didn't know that Aaron was also sweating in his heart. Fortunately, Reina, a weakling, knew his identity, and he didn't pay attention to the Inhumans at all, so he could counterattack and threaten them.
It doesn't matter what leverage the stranger has grabbed against him. What's important is that unless he is determined to defeat the enemy, this leverage will not threaten him.
The most important thing is that the fish will definitely die, but the net may not be broken.
But if another force representative came over, such as a wizard, a demon, or an angel, then he might have to change his attitude.
It's a given that you won't accept threats, but you also need time to prepare for running away!
"You two are not talking, are you entertaining me?"
Sensing that Aaron's tone had turned cold, Rena shuddered subconsciously, and hesitantly said, "The Inhumans want to cooperate with you."
"What kind of cooperation method?"
"We can keep the secret, but we need Gaius to provide some..." Reina swallowed nervously, "some help."
"Ha! Haha!" Aaron sneered and said with disdain: "Some help? How interesting! What a beautiful thing to say!
Lena, do you think I’m easy to deceive because I’m young? "
"I didn't mean that. I know what kind of person you are, but I don't know enough about you."
"But pull it down! My rich life experience has given me a deep enough understanding of 'human nature'.
So... give you a chance and tell the truth. "
"I told the truth."
"Jane, tell her to calm down and understand the consequences of lying."
The corners of Jian's lips raised slightly, and her blood-red eyes slowly moved to Lena.
"Wait a minute." Reina shouted in panic, "I told you, I told the truth."
"Wouldn't it be enough to do this earlier?" Aaron said scornfully, "I was tired of these tricks of yours before I was three years old."
"Tired of playing?" Hela raised her eyebrows and asked with interest, "But why are you passive?"
“I have a cousin, and she tricked me like this.
some help? Some are more or less helpful, and help may be great or small. Anyway, these are not my final say. "
Hela twitched the corner of her mouth and asked incredulously: "Are you sure this was an experience you had before you were three years old?"
"I'll be crying if I talk too much!" Aaron laughed at himself, then adjusted his state and looked at Reina, "Please start your sincere performance."
"I saw something beautiful and strange. It's hard to describe. It looked like a big rock, but it wasn't a rock. It could liquefy and there were deep holes in it.
I told Jiaying about this, and she knew the origin of the stone, which was left by the Kree and used to destroy aliens.
That thing was too dangerous for foreigners, so Jiaying felt it was necessary to find a foreign aid, someone strong and trustworthy. "
"Then you found me?"
"Yes, the Inhumans kept Gaius's secret, and Gaius helped the Inhumans eliminate the danger posed by that stone."
Aaron nodded with a half-smile, "What else?"
"No, no more."
"Alas!" Aaron sighed quietly, then pointed his thumb at the shelf behind him, "There is a bottle of magic potion called Veritaserum there.
Just one drop can make someone reveal their deepest secrets.
I don't know if Gordon is a strong-willed person, but you probably aren't. "
"I... what I said is really the truth." Reina panicked in her heart and explained without tears, "I swear to my grandmother's spirit in heaven that what I just said was half a lie. Good to die."
"You are telling the truth, but you are also hiding a small part, right!" Old God Aaron smiled and said, "Besides this transaction, what other purpose is there? Let's talk about it together!"
"No more." Reina shook her head simply.
"I won't cry until I see the coffin!" Aaron said impatiently, "Jane."
Jane immediately threw out a dark chain, wrapped Reina up, and hung her in the air.
Scarlet eyes appeared in her sight, and Reina couldn't help but tremble, "No, no, I really don't, no..."
"pain!"
"ah!"
As the cold words fell, Rena let out a shrill scream again.
This time the pain only lasted a few seconds, but before she could recover, she fell heavily to the ground, and then a drop of ice fell into her mouth.
"Spit, Veritaserum?"
"Otherwise, what do you think it is? Healing medicine?"
Upon hearing this, Reina's face suddenly turned pale, and she collapsed on the ground as if she had collapsed.
There are things you can think about, but you can never say. This is why she has been struggling just now, but now it is all out of her control.
"Mr. Gordon, if you don't mind, could you help her up?
Don't dirty my floor. "
"No need." Reina forced herself to stand up. Aaron's playful gaze made her feel as if she had seen Satan, so she simply threw the bottle away. "What do you want to ask? You can ask now."
"Besides Jiaying's deal, do you have any ideas?"
"Of course." Lena blurted out, "I want you to restore my appearance. I should be a holy angel, not a dirty mouse."
Aaron crossed his hands and propped his chin, "What else?"
"I want your alchemy, potion knowledge, and magic." Reina said, her face getting more and more bitter, but she just couldn't close her damn mouth. She had never wished she was mute as much as she does now.
"How greedy!" Hela secretly smacked her tongue, "If you want to summon evil gods or demons, this greedy heart is definitely the best sacrifice."
"Some people are like this, born bad, like vampires who will never be satisfied." Aaron commented very pertinently, "Don't you think your request is too unreasonable?"
“I don’t expect you to meet my request all at once, this is a step-by-step process.
I can do it step by step, and I will seize any opportunity to get what I want bit by bit. As long as you don't think about exposing your identity for a day, I can keep eating your secret. "
"Pfft! Hahaha!" Hela couldn't help laughing. "This is the first time I've heard such a funny joke. It's so interesting, hahaha..."
"Is it interesting?"
"An ant actually dares to threaten a giant dragon. Even fairy tales dare not tell it like this."
"The heart is as high as the sky, but the stupidity is beyond reach." Aaron shook his head speechlessly and said slowly: "There are relatively few restrictions on potions. Mortals can also achieve some trivial achievements in this field by spending some time training and learning. .
But alchemy requires talent, resources, learning, hardship, and even magic power. If you don’t have any of these, you may not be able to enter until you die.
As for magic... I'm sorry, that is determined by your origin. You are a pure Muggle, not even a squib. "
"But it's not all bad." Hela said with a teasing smile, "With the greed in her bones, if she is willing to become the slave of a certain evil god, she might be able to eat some leftovers."
Lena:......
She could accept that the plan failed before it even started.
But the plan was a joke from the beginning, which hurts one's self-esteem.
"I suddenly feel that Jiaying should not agree to send you to negotiate terms, you will mess everything up." Gordon said calmly, but there was more complaint in his tone.
"Skye's mother is not a fuel-efficient person!" Aaron smiled meaningfully, "Do you think she doesn't know who Reina is?
But she still gave her the right to negotiate. If I guessed correctly, she wanted to use Reina to test my attitude.
If she had the chance to tear off a piece of flesh from my body, she might bite it harder than anyone else. "
Hearing this, both Reina and Gordon fell silent.
Originally, Jiaying was supposed to be leading the negotiation, but Reina took the initiative and agreed without much hesitation. It's hard to say that she didn't have any ideas.
However, Jiaying has always been the manager of the Inhumans, and all decisions she makes are for the Inhumans. Without some scheming, the Inhumans would be in a worse situation than the mutants.
"Now that we've said it, let's be more direct." Aaron pointed to the door of the divination house, "Get out of here! If you go out through this door, I'll pretend I've never seen you.
By the way, a friendly reminder, you'd better go back quickly.
If it's too late, it might lead to a war between Gaius and the aliens, or it might be a one-sided massacre. I'll keep my word. "
"Don't you think about it seriously?" Rena said anxiously.
"What else do we need to consider?" Aaron asked with an indifferent smile, "This negotiation was meaningless from the beginning, because the Inhumans did not dare to reveal my identity.
If that's the case, then why should I take the risk to help the Inhumans solve hidden dangers? Are you full? "
"Where's Skye? She is also an alien." Lena said unwillingly, "That stone will threaten all aliens, including her."
"You may have misunderstood something. My relationship with Skye is not that good, and I have no interest in her, so... I won't take risks for her.
Of course, if you can afford it, I can't take the risk. "
"What do you want?" Gordon asked.
"It depends on what you have." Aaron said lightly, "I am only interested in extraordinary items or information related to the extraordinary. Other mundane things have no appeal to me.
Okay, that's all I have to say, you can leave peacefully. "
Seeing his attitude, Reina and Gordon understood that this meaningless negotiation could only end here.
"Let's go!" Gordon sighed, then opened the blue-purple energy field and teleported away with Rena.
"Master, is it too easy for them to let them go like this?" Jane asked with some confusion.
"There is always a lesson in human relations." Aaron said with a nonchalant smile, "The two armies are fighting and they haven't killed the envoys yet, not to mention that the aliens and I haven't fought yet.
Their return intact can also show my attitude to the Inhumans. I don't care about the Inhumans, but I don't want to become their enemy. "
"It's unnecessary. Things won't go as smoothly as you think." Hela said sarcastically, "Your identity is no longer an absolute secret in the atrium.
Since they know it, there is a risk of leaking secrets."
"Does Her Highness Hela mean to kill all the insiders?"
"Don't kill them and keep them for Christmas?"
"Master, I also think they should be killed. Only dead people won't leak secrets."
"Okay, let's stop here!
Killing may not solve the problem, and it may make the problem more complicated. It's good to maintain the status quo." Aaron said earnestly.
He also had the idea of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots at the beginning, but he just thought about it.
He is still in the stage of wretched development. What he needs most is time. It's better to have less trouble than more.
......
As time passed, Pietro and Wanda gradually adapted to the peaceful life, and the haze of the Sokovia incident seemed to gradually dissipate in their hearts.
Aaron also completed the record of Lemano's magic book, leaving more than 30 different magics such as attack, defense, healing, teleportation, and control on those blank pages.
Then he put the Lemanno magic book into the secret room and took out the blank book of demons.
"Where did you get these things?" Hela asked curiously, "It's okay to have a book that records magic, but you actually have a book that creates life."
"I bought them all with real money!" Aaron said with emotion, "Each one is more expensive than the other, and each one consumes more energy than the other."
Hela's mouth twitched, "Please introduce such a merchant to me, his ability will not be worse than that of the dwarf king Aitri."
"Introduce it to you?" Aaron pouted his lips in disdain, "Forget it! I'm afraid you will grab him with a sword."
"I'm not that kind of person."
"You don't care whether it's all right or not, the problem is that I really can't introduce this merchant to you.
As for the reason, you can think about it slowly!" Aaron opened the first page of the book while chatting and laughing, thinking about what kind of demon he should create.
The gender is set as male, which is also more convenient to use.
The appearance and IQ must not be low, but they cannot be higher than their master.
You need to know all kinds of etiquette, and aristocratic style is a must.
The character can be a little free and easy, not too serious, and must understand the ways of the world.
The biggest responsibility is loyalty, and as for magical abilities... the ability to create and control fire is good.
In addition to these, you have to design a demon form, otherwise it will not live up to the name of this book...
