Illegitimate child? Not flowing with the Gelten Family blood? All the treasures?
Upon hearing these three words, Lei smiled coldly, turned around and left.
This woman was quite scheming. First she used wealth to seduce him, and then pointed out the fatal flaws of her competitors, making it seem like she had a good chance of winning. If he was an adventurer who lacked experience and experience, he might have been deceived by her.
But who is he? He is the powerful lone thief Western Wasteland, the extremely vicious murderer who single-handedly wiped out the whole family of the smuggling chamber "Iron Sand", and the most ruthless person even God of Hunting and Slaughter dares to provoke!
Want to deceive him? Don't urinate and look in the mirror!
What's more, he had seen too many tricks among the nobles back then. Illegitimate children without bloodline? Bloodline, as long as someone has money, the fake can become real. It is nothing more than a spell ritual worth 20,000 to 30,000 gold coins, and the bloodline sample that needs to be replaced.
Looking at Gelten Viscount Territory's current appearance, even the ruling order has begun to collapse. It can be seen that the two sides are about to have a complete showdown. At this time, blood, reputation, etc. have little meaning. When the bayonet sees red, the only thing that can be relied on is force.
The one with the big fist wins, the one with the small fist loses, the winner takes all, and the loser is doomed. This is a common occurrence in the aristocratic circle, and he has even witnessed it with his own eyes before.
That Lomon has been able to conquer all of Steel's lovers, which shows how strong her control over the territory is. This Steel is also a slut with such a bad reputation that it can even affect a street in the face of wind. It is completely impossible to expect any respected and powerful person to come forward to support her. What will happen when the two sides show off? He can predict it now.
In this case, are you still going to help Steel fight for inheritance rights?
Only a fool would do such a thing!
Just as he was about to leave with a sneer, he heard Sui Xiong's telepathic communication again.
"Follow her and take a look first. This seems to be a mess."
"Your Majesty Jellyfish God, you may not understand the human world - this matter has been decided, there is absolutely no hope." Lei thought that Sui Xiong's sense of justice had struck again, and advised, "This woman will not have a chance to stand up. It is more practical to escape now."
"I'm not interested in that woman, I'm interested in Gelten Viscount Territory."
"... As a non-human god, I think it's a bit risky to directly reach out to the inheritance of nobles." Lei advised, "Not to mention what can you gain from it? Human wealth and power are of no use to a non-human god like you. When it comes to developing believers, how can a person who can sell his faith for profit be pious to you?"
"You are thinking too much. I just want to administer justice." Sui Xiong chuckled twice, hiding the thought that he had never seen the fight for the aristocratic inheritance rights before and wanted to see the live action.
"... It always feels like it doesn't sound like the truth."
Sui Xiong didn't expect this guy Lei to be so sharp, so he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but he quickly corrected his attitude and said seriously, "You are thinking too much. Remember, I am also a kind god after all. I want to uphold justice. Is there anything wrong with that?"
"What's wrong with a jellyfish delivering justice to humans?"
Sui Xiong was left speechless, and in the end he had to use the last resort to force the execution. Although Lei had no interest in these nonsense things in the aristocratic circle, he still couldn't twist his thigh with his arm, and he sighed helplessly and followed Steel away.
"Let me make it clear first: I don't want to help you or promise you anything." He emphasized to Steel, "I just think something doesn't seem right about this and I want to see what's going on."
Steel nodded repeatedly, looking obedient, but secretly amused in his heart.
Just want to see what happens? The words are better than the songs! Doesn't she know the virtues of adventurers?
Gelten Territory is a pioneering territory adjacent to the wilderness. The territory came from the tireless development of successive generations of viscounts. In the process, I don't know how many encounters with adventurers. Steel, as the original official sole heir of Gelten Territory, has been in contact with adventurers since he was a child. He has a deep understanding of the character of adventurers. Morality and behavior are very clear - the so-called adventurers are a group of strong men who pursue interests. They are good and evil, but they generally have two things in common: first, they respect the contract and are not willing to make easy promises. After all, adventurers are a legitimate profession, and credibility is very important to them; second, they pursue interests, not for benefits. Who is crazy enough to do the business of licking blood with a knife tip!
This powerful black knight is definitely tempted. He is just not sure about the strength comparison between the two sides and how strong his opponent is, so he doesn't agree. As long as he is sure that he can win, even if he is only 60 to 70% sure, he will definitely agree immediately - 60 to 70% sure is enough for an adventurer.
So she was in a good mood and even walked much more briskly.
What happened today was full of twists and turns!
Originally, because the situation was unfavorable, she wanted to go out for a wild shot to relax, but her lovers had been bribed by that guy to betray her! Facing a group of strong men who suddenly attacked, she had no power to fight back and could only wait for death. But at this moment, the savior suddenly fell from the sky, and an absurdly strong adventurer passed by, killing all the traitors and saving her from a desperate situation.
In the end, things got even better - the adventurer was obviously tempted by the conditions she gave, and although he had not yet agreed clearly, he had already chosen to act with her. I believe that when he sees Gelten Family's warehouse, the mountains of treasure, and the huge wealth that makes people jealous, he will stand unswervingly on her side.
With the support of this strong man, she is no longer powerless to fight back. Not only that, as long as she shows enough force, many officials and nobles who were originally unwilling to support the fake will change their attitudes. This inheritance battle has returned to a balance of power from a one-sided situation, and she even has the upper hand!
As for in the end, after winning the right to inherit and becoming Viscount Gerten, she still has the final say on how many things are in the treasure house!
Thinking of this, her mood got better and better, and she couldn't help but smile charmingly.
"This woman is plotting against you." Sui Xiong, who has been invisible and floating on top of Lei's head, used telepathy to alert him. "She is full of malice towards you. Don't really believe her!"
The gap between mortals and gods is huge. This huge gap is reflected in various aspects. One of the most important points is the "reading consciousness" brought about by the gap in life levels.
In front of the gods, the consciousness of mortals is almost defenseless. Even if the gods do not deliberately read it, they can clearly see that the so-called "people cannot deceive gods" is what this is.
This situation gradually improves as the strength of mortals improves. When the limit is exceeded and the realm of legend is reached, gods can no longer pry into the hearts of mortals at will - of course, whether they are still considered "mortals" at this time is a question mark. After all, legendary strongmen are often regarded as beings above mortals.
Of course, this is not absolute. For example, take Lei, his strength is now close to the legendary level - Gray Stone Mountains's adventure is indispensable - unless you deliberately spy, Sui Xiong cannot see what he is thinking, and can only roughly see his emotions.
In addition, a cunning guy like Ryan also has a way to deceive the gods - the speaker himself does not know that he is lying, and the gods will of course be unable to detect it. He used this method to deceive Sui Xiong in the first place, so he is a clever man, and he is worthy of being an old liar!
In contrast, Steel has neither strong strength nor exquisite arrangements. How can she deceive Sui Xiong with what she has in mind?
Even though Sui Xiong had no intention of deliberately reading minds, at such a close distance, the sneaky thoughts in Steel's mind were as clear as a bad actor reading a monologue in his ear.
"Don't worry, I'm not easily plotted." After being reminded by Sui Xiong, Lei sneered, full of disdain for that stupid woman and full of confusion about Sui Xiong's behavior. "You can see, too, that the world of aristocrats is so ugly. This kind of woman... even if she is willing to believe in you, are you willing to have such a believer?"
"I don't want to." Sui Xiong answered honestly.
"I definitely don't want to! The only one who is willing to have this kind of believer is Dim Moon..."
"Uh?!" Sui Xiong was stunned for a moment, gathered his strength, and carefully observed Steel from the perspective of the soul for a while, and then said, "She is not a believer of God of Conspiracy. If I read correctly, she should be a believer of God of Nobility."
"Oh...Noble Lady (another name for God of Nobility), that's not much different from Dim Moon. He relied on the help of Dim Moon to murder the previous generation God of State and Diplomacy Only then did steal the three priesthoods of 'nobility', 'law', and 'ruling', and became True God from a demigod. They were originally allies, so what's the difference between his followers and Dim Moon's followers?"
"Ah?!" This story was not included in God of Redemption's information. Sui Xiong was stunned for a while. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and said, "Damn! No wonder the aristocratic circle is so chaotic. It turns out that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked!"
He sighed for a while and then asked curiously, "God of Nobility can be considered a human god. Human Pantheon has no reaction to this? I remember that Human Pantheon's main god God of Humanity is from the lawful camp. Could it be that he actually allows human gods to sneak around like other gods and have ulterior motives?"
Lei was a little confused. "There are a lot of evil factions in Human Pantheon, why can't they allow their own members to have contact with Dim Moon? Conspiracies are commonplace in politics, even among the gods!"
Sui Xiong was stunned for a long time. He could only shake his head and sigh, and his thousands of words turned into one complaint.
"Your circle is so chaotic!"
