Ai Lei invited him to meet, and she did it in secret. She knew with her toes that it was definitely not just a guest chat.
Most likely you are asking for something from him!
From the fact that Ai Lei agreed to help him solve the spirit beast egg matter without hesitation, it can be seen that the other party indeed needs his help for something.
Otherwise, even if Ai Lei didn't mind helping him, she wouldn't agree so readily.
Lin Ze didn't believe that the dignified second princess would be a purely good person who was willing to help others.
What just makes him a little confused is that as a princess, Ai Lei is the leader of a force and has many capable people under her command!
Even if there are only a few masters who are better than him, there certainly won't be any!
Why bother to find him a foreigner?
The two people in the living room are both smart people, so there is no need to speak too clearly.
In just a few words, both parties understood each other's meaning.
A flash of admiration flashed in Ai Lei's eyes, she nodded slightly and said:
"I do have something to trouble you, Mr. Lin Ze, and it has something to do with the Blood Crystal Cult."
"Blood Crystal Cult?"
Lin Ze's expression moved, as if he was listening attentively.
Elle continued:
"Two months ago, we accidentally discovered the location of the headquarters of the Blood Crystal Cult through a certain clue. After discussion, we decided to destroy the headquarters. However, there are many masters of the Blood Crystal Cult, and we were worried about the lack of manpower, so we wanted to
Please help us, Sir Lin Ze!"
These words were really beyond Lin Ze's expectation.
He raised his eyebrows and asked about the doubts in his heart.
"The Blood Crystal Sect is a cult that your country spares no effort to destroy. Now that you have discovered their sect headquarters, why don't Your Highness report it to the emperor of your country? With the strength of the empire, destroying a mere headquarters is not a problem, right?"
As if she had expected Lin Ze to ask this question, Ailei shook her head calmly and sighed:
"For some reason, I can't let too many people know about this operation, so I can't blatantly order the people who are subordinate to me. I can only secretly summon some experts who are not related to me on the surface, so as not to offend people.
Suspect."
Speaking of this, Ai Lei glanced at Lin Ze.
Obviously, Lin Ze is a master who has nothing to do with her on the surface.
According to this point, he is indeed a foreigner who meets the conditions.
But Lin Ze didn't pay attention to this. His mind was completely focused on what Ai Lei said.
Can't let others know about this operation for some reason?
Including the royal family and even the nobles who serve under them?
Inexplicably, Lin Ze thought of how to make beast spirit crystals.
His eyes flashed and he muttered:
"Your Highness, with all due respect, since this is the headquarters of the Blood Crystal Religion, their Pope must also be sitting there, right? Could it be that among the experts you summoned for this operation, there are saint-level experts who are strong enough to deal with the Pope of the Blood Crystal Religion?"
Unexpectedly, Ailei shook her head and rejected Lin Ze's words.
"Every saint-level powerhouse is a well-known presence in the empire. Every move is followed by countless eyes. Although I can invite a powerhouse of this level, it is not in line with the purpose of this operation!"
"But there is no need to worry, Mr. Lin Ze. The Pope of the Blood Crystal Sect was lured away from the headquarters by me as early as half a month ago. He will not be able to return to the headquarters for at least the next two months. When he learns that something happened to the headquarters,
It’s too late to rush back!”
Lin Ze suddenly understood, but new doubts emerged.
According to Evie, the method of manufacturing beast spirit crystals is only in the hands of the Pope of the Blood Crystal Sect.
If this is Ailei's purpose, then he shouldn't have driven the Pope away from the mountain at all!
So what is her purpose of secretly attacking the Blood Crystal Cult headquarters?
But soon, Lin Ze gave up exploring this issue.
No matter what Ai Lei's real purpose is, it has nothing to do with him as a foreigner.
What he needs to care about is whether to agree to Ailei's request and what he can get from it!
Ai Lei didn't know what was going through Lin Ze's mind at this moment, so she continued:
"In addition, there are two priests who were also lured to the royal city by my design. They also took away twelve priests from the Blood Crystal Cult headquarters."
Having said this, Ai Lei showed a proper apology in her eyes.
"In fact, one of those two priests included Antoine. It was because of my poor planning. I didn't expect that Antoine would be so crazy that he wanted to assassinate you, Mr. Lin Ze, in order to provoke a conflict between me and the eldest brother.
This is how your Excellency Lin Ze is implicated!"
Lin Ze waved his hand and returned the chat to the main topic.
"So, there are only three priests left in the Blood Crystal Cult headquarters?"
"That's right."
Ai Lei pursed her lips and smiled.
"Antoine has died in your hands, Mr. Lin Ze. As for the remaining priest, I have a way to prevent him from leaving the royal city in a short time!"
"When the time comes to raid the Blood Crystal Cult headquarters, you only need your help to capture one of the priests, Mr. Lin Ze, and the rest will be dealt with by others!"
"I wonder what your Excellency Lin Ze wants? As long as you agree to help us, if you have any other requests, feel free to make them. As long as I can do it, I will do my best!"
Ai Lei stared at Lin Ze with bright eyes.
The latter fell into deep thought.
To be honest, Ailei's request is not difficult.
He had killed one of the blood crystal priests, let alone only one priest involved!
The difficulty of this job is not high!
Even so, this is because his strength is there!
Anyone who can kill the Archbishop one-on-one in a head-to-head duel is undoubtedly the top powerhouse in the entire empire!
There won't be many such people.
There are even fewer people who can be driven by Ai Lei without attracting the attention of other forces.
It's no wonder that Ailei would take her idea of him.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Ze quickly came up with something in his mind. He looked up at Ai Lei and said seriously:
"I can promise your highness, but besides the spirit beast eggs, I have one more request."
A bright smile bloomed on Ai Lei's face, she nodded and said:
"Please say!"
"I hope to get all the beast spirit crystals in the Blood Crystal Cult headquarters!"
A look of surprise flashed across Ai Lei's eyes, obviously she didn't expect Lin Ze to make such a request.
Frowning slightly, she reminded:
"Your Excellency Lin Ze, although the beast spirit crystal has extraordinary effects, the only people who can use it are members of the Blood Crystal Sect who have practiced a special secret method. As far as I know, people who have practiced that secret method will have a much shorter life span than ordinary people.
."
"I see, thank you for reminding me, but my request remains unchanged."
Lin Ze smiled slightly.
Seeing his persistence, Ailei agreed immediately without any further persuasion.
Anyway, the beast spirit crystals were of little use to her. If she could get help from an expert like Lin Ze, it would be a good use!
"Then, happy cooperation!"
Lin Ze stretched out his hand.
Ai Lei smiled sweetly and reached out to hold Lin Ze's hand.
The soft and smooth feeling between his palms made Lin Ze's heart tremble slightly.
However, he quickly calmed down, released his palms, and suddenly asked:
"Your Highness, I have a question."
"Please say."
"If I don't agree to your request tonight, aren't you afraid that this will be revealed after I leave?'
Unexpectedly, Ailei blinked when he heard this, revealing a playful and cunning smile that was contrary to the calm and alert temperament just now.
"Is Your Excellency Lin Ze the kind of person who harms others without benefiting himself?"
Lin Ze was startled for a moment, and then he stopped laughing.
