Looking at Isla's slightly flattering smile, Gray Lint was stunned for a moment, and then responded with a smile:
"You're welcome, Major General. This is what I should do."
But he didn't even mention the refusal of compensation.
Although he still doesn’t understand the specific reason, he roughly grasps Isla’s thoughts. Does he regard me as a descendant of an Extraordinary with a profound background and a powerful backing?
Referred to as "non-second generation"?
Also, how can ordinary members of MI9 easily throw out high-level demigod skills? How can they become the leader of a second-level branch in just 4 or 5 months?
However, his empty promises are always not believable. He has to cut off some of the profits to tie him up in order to make Gray Linte feel more at ease.
Thinking of this, he followed the large army into the city and discussed with Isla in a low voice:
"You are so sincere, which makes me feel a little surprised and uneasy. I think it's better to do this. The credit for repelling the demigods and defeating the enemy army this time is all yours. I don't want to reveal my secret, so I don't want to take credit.
And it’s useless for me to bring it now.
As long as the Major General remembers to help me get a better marionette later."
Give yourself credit for nothing?
Isla was stunned on the spot, and after thinking about it for a while, he understood what Gray Linte meant by "it's useless".
He has become the leader of the second-level division. The next step is to take the position of deputy director of the first-level division. That is definitely not something that the current Gray Lint can imagine. No backstage is possible. Hard power and qualifications are required.
, only if all the credit is sufficient.
Is this "hush money" for me?
Isla suddenly understood, and then he wanted to refuse, but he knew that this would be equivalent to directly offending Gray Lint to death, so he couldn't help but hesitate.
It's not that he doesn't like credit. This credit will be credited to him, and it will allow him to take a big step towards the position of lieutenant general.
It’s just that this credit is really hot!
Why!
With a long sigh in his heart, Isla agreed with a wry smile:
"Easy to say, easy to say. Leave this matter to me. Once this battle is over, I will accompany you to get it. I know the locations of several monsters in the ancient deep forest that are suitable for marionettes."
No matter from the heart or from a human perspective, he could not refuse such sugar-coated bullets.
"That's good."
Gray Linte responded with a smile, and was pleasantly surprised to find that a large part of the "Corrupted Baron" potion he had just taken was suddenly digested.
“So this is the corruption of interests!
Hey, there should be a reason why Isla happens to be a 'Retribution Knight'. Corrupting an 'Arbiter' who is committed to maintaining order, Path Sequence 5, will certainly have a better effect than corrupting others.
Well, when I bribed Darnell before, I also felt that the digestion speed of the 'briber' potion was very good.
Can these two channels help each other perform?"
While secretly distributing the benefits, Isla did not forget to send a telegram to Wodehouse, telling him that there was a demigod hunter here. Wodehouse's reply was: Stick to Brother Charo, and he will notify Basel immediately.
Admiral, ask for his opinion.
In Charogo City.
Although Evlav could come back from the void at any time and gather his troops to attack Charogo, neither Glalint nor Isla panicked.
It is possible to gather the strength of two people and use the city as a base to hold out until one's own demigods come over. Moreover, the enemy's conspiracy to secretly send demigods to join the battle in an attempt to take down Brother Zha Luo has been shattered and has been put on the bright side. Therefore, the strength of the troops If it is insufficient, you may not necessarily rely on your own demigods to attack directly.
Sequence 4 can still have a significant impact in a battle of several hundred people, but in a head-on confrontation with an army of thousands of people, it is relatively weak.
…
Sure enough, until Wodehouse arrived in the afternoon, Evraff did not organize another storm.
Of course, it's also possible that he hasn't come out of the void yet.
After using the "Chain of Secrets", which contained the Sequence 4 extraordinary ability "Exile", to fool Wodehouse, who had no intention of investigating in detail, Gray Lint was temporarily free.
He found Isla who was also temporarily idle.
"Is there anything else?"
"Yes, I want to find Alfred. I wonder if the Major General knows where he is?"
Gray Linte remembered that he had served under Isla before, so he asked by the way.
He came to Alfred to ask his craftsmen to help him make the extraordinary properties of "Ocean Singer" and "Desire Apostle" into magical items.
Isla shook his head and said:
"I don't know either. He is directly under the control of His Excellency Basel."
"So that's it, I know."
Then there is no choice but to go back to Backlund and find the "artisan" at the extraordinary party in the "Golden Age" bar.
Okay, let's pay a visit to Mr. Joffrey by the way.
————————————————————————
Returning to the luxurious suite arranged by Isla, Gray Lint prepared to take a short nap, not only to catch up on his sleep, but also to recover his lost spiritual energy.
Although according to the introduction of Tetnik's list of second-level sealed objects, ordinary "Fruit of Wandering" without extraordinary properties can directly replenish the lost spirituality after consumption, but Glalint has never tried it. The reason is that it is too scary. The "Seed of Wrong Action" can consume a living creature with its bones and bones in a few seconds and turn it into a "fertilizer" that blooms and bears fruit. After witnessing such a scene, he no longer wants to I'm so happy to eat that food.
Just as he lay down, before he could fall asleep, layers of illusory prayers sounded in his ears.
"Jim? What happened?"
When there is a prayer ceremony, Gray Lint's connection with reality will be closer, and it only takes about two seconds to leverage the extraordinary characteristic of "Duke of Entropy" to use it.
While doubtful, Gray Lint took the initiative to put his consciousness into the higher realm.
Just when he wanted to follow Jim's prayer light spot, another light spot suddenly appeared next to him, and at the same time, Alister's clear prayer voice could be heard clearly.
Such a coincidence?
As his thoughts floated around, he first cast his sights on Jim.
Looking down from the sky, what comes into view is a piece of blue water and a huge three-masted sailboat. It is covered in pure black and is nearly a hundred meters long. Three black canvases hang high like a flag.
On its deck, with its back to the cabin, stood a nearly three-meter high-backed stone chair with a mottled surface.
Sitting on the chair was a tall figure comparable to an ancient giant. He had a black beard that reached beyond his neck, a tall spire crown on his head, and a gorgeous robe with black background and silver trim. His face was strong, Full of majesty, it makes people subconsciously want to lower their heads.
Nast Solomon! King of the Five Seas! The true king of the sea!
At this moment, Nast seemed to have noticed something, his eyes rolled around, and he cast his eyes with dark red light towards Gray Lint's position.
There was a sight more majestic than his projected over there! There was also an endless sense of chaos, with an established, irresistible and inevitable path towards a disorderly fate.
The majesty of the high-ranking person on the same path suppressed Nast and he couldn't help but tremble slightly. He suppressed his fear and confused the vision of his crew and all the creatures on the opposite passenger ship. He bowed his head respectfully and asked:
"May I ask which Duke is it that is looking at this place?"
He knew most of the demigods still alive in the world, but he had no memory of the "Black Emperor" path and the living "angels on earth".
Who am I? Where am I? How should I face him?
Graylint didn't expect that Jim and Shirley would meet the King of the Five Seas "Nast" by chance, which made him not know how to respond to each other.
I have nothing to do, I just want to come and see what's going on here.
His thoughts were confused for a few seconds, and Gray Lint was unwilling to let his behavior look too ridiculous, causing Nast to make any unfounded conjectures.
So, as a "Duke of Entropy", what might I need?
Thinking of this, he suddenly had something to say, so he actively exuded more chaotic aura, and at the same time projected his deep and majestic voice into the sky above the sea:
"one question."
one question?
Nast did not respond and waited patiently for the unknown Duke.
It's not that he can't run away and intends to capture him without mercy. The body of this angel on earth is obviously still far away. He just uses the sight of a certain believer to project it over. I'm afraid the power he can exert is quite limited. It's just that he has
Choice, and the situation does not seem too bad, I just don’t want to offend a high-ranking Extraordinary of the same sequence for no reason.
"What are the places that Russell often paid attention to in his later years?"
After a short pause, he added:
"I mean the unusual places."
He looks like an ordinary Sequence 2, looking for clues about high-level extraordinary characteristics or potion formulas, but in fact he knows the corresponding information very clearly.
This was an extremely vague question, so Nast gave a number of locations:
Unknown places to the west, abyss, hidden ruins... and even the moon.
At the end of the inquiry, Gray Lint didn't even say thank you. He trembled slightly over the sea area, withdrew his sight and chaotic aura, and tried his best to show the arrogant posture that a strong angel should have.
Although with the character shown by Gray Lint, Jim would not be in any danger even if he noticed it, but he still increased the possibility of being exposed.
…………
Sobia city.
"The Disordered One from the High Dimensions...the Great Gralint Mariano.
I beg for your gaze, I beg for your response."
Alister prayed carefully with the same prayers and complete rituals as before, but unlike before, he received a response quickly. This made him confused and carefully checked his ritual process.
, and then try to pray again.
Still no response... There was a little confusion in his eyes.
After a few minutes of delay, when he put away the ritual materials and prepared to try to pray to Gray Lint again at night, the same majestic voice as usual rang in his ears:
"What's up?"
Alister was suddenly startled, put down the materials in his hands, and prayed in a low voice:
"It's like this, sir. When we expanded outwards, we encountered a more difficult enemy. That was a general from Konis City in the northwest. He is a mid-level Beyonder."
There are already very few wild Extraordinaries in the mid-level... Didn't I hint that you would only target warlords without backing?
In the strange space, Gray Linte had a headache for a while.
Of course he can help Alister and the others kill this enemy, but he can't always stay there. As long as Alister and the others are not strong enough, the huge territory will not only attract the attention of the Intis military, but in fact
It won't have any practical meaning.
"Just pause the expansion and accumulate strength. As long as the other party does not take the initiative to attack you, then don't act rashly."
"If he takes the initiative to attack you, just tell me."
It’s also that Gray Linte has no need for territory now, whether it’s for rituals or performances, so he repeatedly emphasizes to Alister and others that they should stay hidden, maintain good security, and accumulate strength instead of blind expansion.
However, these young people actually have no experience in running a city, even if it is just a small border city, so they still use the original mayor for the time being, but made some simple changes based on Gray Lint's opinions.
For example, we should intensify the crackdown on and search for various types of criminals, appropriately reduce or reduce business taxes, and attract businessmen to do business here.
...even before touching the slave owners, Sobia is a typical place where the emperor is far away. Even Intis has also abolished slavery, but the use of slaves there is still very common, involving
The interests and the number of people are very large. Sasha, who is a "lawyer" like Gray Lint, has recently convinced several conservative officials who were originally unwilling to cause trouble to prepare for a major move.
Alister reported on the current situation of Sobia one by one, while Graylint did not intend to interfere, but let them go and let them do what they wanted, treating it as a training exercise.
Of course, in order to participate in such "order reconstruction", he still gave some suggestions and reference plans in key places.
