Chapter 80: He’s too good at pretending

Heine followed her words.

Silverwing fell to the ground bound by the Chain of Pardoning Sins and immediately struggled to turn his face to Heine when he heard the words.

“Don’t listen to this dead-“

Bang!
The anvil flew from the side, knocking the exhausted Silverwing out with precision.

Catch the Goat and Guardian Iris climbed up as well, standing behind the two left and right.

Strength aside, a black and white skeleton standing like this was indeed quite imposing.

“What does His Excellency the necromancer …… mean?”

Eric’s expression stared up slightly.

Because of trade relations, he knew that Silverwing was collecting material for necromancy spells, which required a large number of living people and corpses.

Could it be that this young man in front of him knew about this?
But no matter what, it was clearly not his turn to speak on this occasion.

But without waiting for him to speak, Heine took the initiative:

“The Shadow Sanctuary does not fully understand the beginning and end of this incident, and there is a small gap between you.

“But it’s different for me, I know this by heart, and I’m clear about our mutual claims.

“I can talk to you about the future of the Brotherhood, including the ‘cooperation’ that Your Excellency deems impossible.”

Eric almost laughed out loud.

Four ravens circled the sky, watching over the floating city.

If they hadn’t noticed anything out of the ordinary, he would have suspected that this was the other side’s little trick to stall for time.

But just then, the other party raised something in their hands.

“This looks more familiar to you, doesn’t it?”

It was a metal emblem with a raven design on it.

It was the emblem of the Brotherhood.

Eric’s eyes and attention were instantly drawn to it.

Heine raised his hand and threw the emblem over.

Eric reached out and caught it.

Yet before he could see what it was, just a moment of distraction, the cold dagger was suddenly against his waist.

This ……

Eric’s body stiffened.

A figure slowly appeared behind him.

He caught a glimpse of the red bandana near him, and the swaying dark purple soul fire.

A third skeleton?
When did it appear?

Mr. Xia had long ago silently touched behind Eric, and at the right moment, he made an “attempt to hold him hostage” according to Heine’s instructions.

Goat Catch: “No, why didn’t you trigger his passive (Deceive the Reaper)?”

Mr. Xia: “On the one hand, Heine used props to distract him, and on the other hand, Zhuang Zhuang is a wimp, covered in life-preserving props, such as the mage’s protective mirror, life-protecting tortoise shell, and phantom incantation, so this kind of threat isn’t enough to trigger the passive.”

Wei Temple Iris: “Then Heine is ready to …… forget it, when I didn’t ask, aboriginal wisdom is it.”

Catch the Goat: “Hahaha too right, Wei you can even snatch the answer.”

…

Heine naturally did not expect this to take a fraternity leader.

He was just showing off his abilities to make the other party put away his contempt and ensure that both sides would talk as equals.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Eric, my undead are not very obedient.”

Heine owed politely, then snapped his fingers.

“Come back, Xia.”

Mr. Xia: “Holy shit, Heine can fake it better than I can!”

Then quickly vanished into thin air.

This time it was really shocking to Eric.

He was originally casting aspersions on the fact that this necromancer had really found some poor excuses.

But after witnessing this godly sneaking skill with his own eyes, he could no longer say anything.

This could only be done by the Brotherhood’s handful, his own big brother Vanderwyn Strong, right?

He couldn’t help but respect this little nobleman in front of him.

Suddenly, Eric inexplicably associated it with Ciara’s question just now ……

Secret underground lover ……

As well as the intimacy between the two just now ……

Hiss ……

More solemn respect.

Eric’s gaze swept over the other two skeletons behind the other man.

His mind quickly took stock.

The situation was beyond his expectations, and it seemed that it might not be possible to completely leave the person behind.

If that was the case ……

He said with a straight face, “If Your Excellency hands over the Silver Wings to us, I swear in the name of Vanderwyn Strong that I will take the people and leave quickly, and will not make things difficult for all of you.”

Heine didn’t ask who Vanderwin was, someone would give him the answer.

…

Guardian Iris: “Who is this Vanderwin?” Mr. Xia: “Dajiang, these three brothers are quite affectionate, and when he says so he really intends to moisten it. Holy shit, this situation really let Heine solve it? Worthy of being my brother Hai.”

Catch the sheep: “No, Sa is not in the total, you will take his class, right? Means he has top inhibition?”

Mr. Xia: “What do you mean, I have always had respect for my big brother!”

Wei Temple Iris: “You pure and simple capricious ……”

…

Ignoring their tirades, Heine realized that the other party was already backing down in their hearts.

So he shook his head.

Eric frowned, “So there’s no deal?”

Heine: “No, Mr. Eric, I just don’t think your side should hang on to the tree that is the Cuirassier Court …… after all, it’s rotten.

“Let’s put it this way, what the Shadow Sanctuary found out this time was enough for Eternal Dawn to personally put pressure on the Mercury Forest.

“In that case, the Cui Ye Court will either change its head in the future or disappear completely, and no matter what, there is no chance for you to continue working together.

“Even more so, the Brotherhood will have to face the wrath from both Eternal Dawn and Shadow Sanctuary at the same time.

“If that’s the case, do you guys still want to defend this person to the death?”

He kicked the Silverwing next to him.

Eric, however, laughed softly.

“Any hypothetical projection is a form of discourse, and if I were the one to ask, I could make it sound like the most favorable situation for the Brotherhood as well.

“So don’t waste any more time, sir, it’s in everyone’s best interest to let me take him, or else it’s really going to be a fish out of water.”

Instead, Heine raised a sheaf of letterhead in his hand.

“Take a look at what I’ve given you, and guess what these are?”

These were all the ones that Jianglu had just taken out of Silverwing’s office.

However it wasn’t the secret bills and transaction records that Heine had thought.

Most of them were bills for the purchase of corpses from elven civilians, true or false, they were all clean and clear.

Silverwing wasn’t entirely trusting of Jianglu, who hadn’t been able to find the real safe.

But that Brotherhood emblem was real.

Eric’s face was decidedly cloudy.

Heine: “It seems you’ve already guessed that, and with the skeleton you just saw, Your Excellency doesn’t think you can keep us here completely, does he?”

The truth was Eric wasn’t sure that was true.

Because he didn’t know that things weren’t his own doing.

It was also clear to Heine that he didn’t know.

In any large organization with redundant personnel, decisions on transactions are made by a pat on the back from the man at the top.

But it was the people below who carried out the specifics.

This is why similar ledgers and blacklists exist in most movies and TV shows.

It’s not evidence purposely reserved for the police and regulators, but rather for organizational bodies to monitor and verify their own people’s use.

It’s a necessary personnel process and link.

So it was clear to Heine that something similar must exist.

With that emblem, even if he took out a bunch of toilet paper and waved it like that, the other party would have to weigh whether it was real or not.

The only thing to worry about was whether Eric would be dead set on asking for verification.

But Heine wouldn’t give him that chance.

If he really showed it to him, he would be exposed!
Just as the other party hesitated, Heine suddenly raised his hand and the letterheads floated up.

Heine: “V, burn them.”

Wei Temple Iris: “F*ck, this than is really capable of pretending!”

A cloud of shadowy flames exploded in the air like an octopus, engulfing the scattered pages in droves.

Eric was stunned, and then his face was grave.

Burned?

What did that mean?
“That’s how sincere I am.”

Heine smiled and his tone became low:

“I’m the Lord’s spell advisor, and I’m sure your party is aware of the dilemma of the McCalla Mountains.

“We are all small players, surviving in the middle of the cracks, so I hope to gain your party’s friendship, and perhaps in the future I will be able to ask for your honor’s help.

“Also, my words are not a joke, the Brotherhood can indeed start cooperation with the Shadow Temple.

“What you have done in the past can continue in the future.

“I’m a necromancer, you understand what I’m talking about, right?”

Eric froze at first, then something snapped.

A necromancer?

That’s right ……

Why would the Shadow Sanctuary suddenly make a move against the Cui Ye Court, could it be that they were competing for this necromancy experiment that consumed a lot of material?

If that was the case, then who wouldn’t it be better to do business with, why did they have to die to protect Silverwing?

The Shadow Temple also needs a black channel for smuggling people and corpses ……

Isn’t this just right?
Eric Strong’s thoughts opened up.
