Illegitimate child? Without the blood of the Geerteng Family? All the treasures?
Hearing these three words, Ray sneered and turned away.
This woman was a scheming woman. First, she tempted him with wealth, and then she pointed out the fatal flaws of her rival. It seemed that she had a good chance of winning. If he was an adventurer who lacked experience and knowledge, he might really be fooled by her.
But who was he? He was a lone thief who shocked the entire Western Wilderness, an extremely evil villain who destroyed the whole smuggling chamber of commerce "Iron Sand", and a peerless ruthless man who even dared to provoke the God of Hunting and Massacre!
Did she want to deceive him? She should take a piss and look in the mirror!
Moreover, he had seen many of these tricks among the nobles. An illegitimate child without the blood? As long as one had money, a fake bloodline could become a real one. It was nothing more than a magic ceremony worth twenty or thirty thousand gold coins, and a sample of the bloodline that needed to be replaced.
Looking at the current situation of the territory of Geerteng, even the ruling order had begun to collapse. It could be seen that the two sides were about to have a showdown. At this time, the bloodline, the reputation … did not have much meaning. When the bayonet was red, the only thing that could be relied on was force.
The one with the bigger fist would win, and the one with the smaller fist would lose. The winner would take all, and the loser would be finished. This was a common thing in the noble circle, and he had even seen it with his own eyes.
Romon had even subdued all of Steele's lovers, which showed how strong his control over the territory was. Steele's reputation was so bad that it could stink the whole street. It was impossible for her to count on any respectable big shot to come forward and support her. What would happen when the two sides had a showdown? He could predict it now.
Under such circumstances, would he still help Steele to fight for the inheritance?
Only a fool would do such a thing!
When he was about to leave with a sneer, he heard Sui Xiong's telepathic communication.
"Let's follow her to have a look. It seems to be a little tricky."
"Your Majesty the Jellyfish God, you may not know much about the human world — this thing has been decided, and there is absolutely no hope." Ray thought that Sui Xiong's sense of justice was acting up again, and he advised, "This woman will not have a chance to turn over, and it is more practical to run away now."
"I'm not interested in that woman. I'm interested in Viscount Geerteng."
"… As a non-human God, I think it's a bit risky to get involved in the aristocratic inheritance," Ray advised. "Besides, what can you get from it? Human wealth, power, and status are useless to non-human gods like you. Speaking of developing believers, how can a person who can betray his faith for the sake of profit be devout to you? "
"You're thinking too much. I just want to uphold justice." Sui Xiong chuckled and hid the fact that he had never seen a noble fight for the right of inheritance before and wanted to see it live.
"… I don't think it's the truth."
Sui Xiong didn't expect Ray to be so sensitive, so he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. But he quickly adjusted his attitude and pretended to be serious. "You think too much. After all, I am also a good god. Is there anything wrong with wanting to uphold justice?"
"A jellyfish upholds justice for humans. What's wrong with that?"
Sui Xiong was speechless. Finally, he had to use his last resort, which was to enforce justice. Although Ray had no interest in the bullsh * t things in the aristocratic circle, he couldn't win against Sui Xiong. He sighed helplessly and left with Steele.
"Let me make one thing clear first: I'm not trying to help you or promise you anything." He emphasized to Steele, "I just feel that something is wrong, and I want to see what's going on."
Steele nodded and looked obedient, but she was secretly amused.
Just want to see what's going on? That sounded better than a song! How could she not know what kind of people adventurers were?!
Geerteng Territory was a pioneering territory adjacent to the barbarian land, and its territory was developed by generations of viscounts who worked tirelessly to develop it. During this process, no one knew how many times they had dealt with adventurers. As the only official heir of the Geerteng Territory, Steele had been in contact with adventurers since she was a child, so she was very clear about their moral character and behavior. The so-called adventurers were a group of strong people who pursued interests. There were good and evil people among them, but they generally had two things in common: first, they respected contracts and were not willing to make promises easily. After all, being an adventurer was a legitimate profession, and credit was very important to them; second, they pursued interests. If it was not for interests, who would be crazy enough to do such a dangerous business?
This powerful knight in black was definitely tempted, but now he was not sure about the strength of the two sides, and how strong the opponent was, so he did not agree. As long as he was sure that he could win, even if there was only sixty or seventy percent chance of winning, he would definitely agree immediately. Sixty or seventy percent chance of winning was enough for an adventurer.
So she was in a good mood, and even walked much more briskly.
What happened today was really full of twists and turns!
Originally, because the situation was not good, she wanted to come out to have sex in the wild to relax, but it turned out that her lovers had been bought over by that guy! In the face of a group of strong men who suddenly attacked her, she had no power to fight back, and could only wait for death. But at this time, a savior suddenly came from the sky. An extremely strong adventurer passed by, killed all the traitors, and saved her from the hopeless situation.
And in the end, things were even more happy. Obviously, the adventurer was tempted by the conditions she offered, and although he did not explicitly agree, he had already chosen to act with her. She believed that when he saw the warehouse of the Geerteng Family, saw the mountains of treasures, and faced with the huge amount of wealth that was enough to make people jealous, he would definitely firmly stand by her side.
With the support of this strong person, she would no longer be powerless to fight back. Not only that, as long as she showed enough power, many officials and nobles who were originally unwilling to support the fake would change their attitude. This battle for the right of inheritance had changed from a one-sided situation to a balance, and she even had the upper hand!
In the end, after she won the right of inheritance and became the Viscount of Geerteng, she would have the final say on how many things there were in the treasure house!
Thinking of this, her mood became better and better, and she could not help but show a charming smile.
"This woman is scheming against you." Sui Xiong, who had been floating on top of Ray's head, warned him with the mind communication, "She is full of malice towards you, don't really believe her!"
There was a huge gap between mortals and Gods, and this huge gap was reflected in many aspects, one of which was the "reading of consciousness" caused by the difference in life level.
In front of Gods, the consciousness of mortals was almost defenseless. Even if Gods did not deliberately read the consciousness, they could clearly see the general situation — the so-called "people can't deceive Gods" referred to this situation.
This situation gradually improved with the improvement of the strength of mortals. When they broke through the limit and stepped into the legendary realm, Gods could not casually peep into the minds of mortals — of course, at that time, whether mortals were still "mortals" or not was still a question mark. After all, in many cases, legendary strong people were regarded as existences above mortals.
Of course, this was not absolute. For example, Ray's strength was now close to the legendary realm — the adventure in the Graystone Mountains was indispensable — unless he deliberately peeped, Sui Xiong could not see what he was thinking, and could only roughly see his emotions.
In addition, Ryan, a cunning guy, also had a way to deceive Gods — the person who spoke did not know that he was lying, so of course the Gods could not see through it. At that time, he had used this method to deceive Sui Xiong, which could be regarded as a clever trick, worthy of being called an old liar!
In contrast, Steele did not have strong strength, nor did she have exquisite arrangements, so how could she deceive Sui Xiong with what she was thinking?
Even if Sui Xiong did not deliberately want to read minds, at such a close distance, Steele's sneaky thoughts were just like a bad actor reading a monologue in his ear, which was very clear.
"Don't worry, I am not so easy to be schemed against." Ray got Sui Xiong's reminder and sneered, full of disdain for that stupid woman, and full of confusion for Sui Xiong's behavior. "You have seen, right? The world of the aristocracy is so ugly. This kind of woman … even if she is willing to believe in you, are you willing to have such a believer? "
"No," Sui Xiong answered honestly.
"Of course not! Probably only the Dim Moon is willing to have such a believer … "
"Uh?!" Sui Xiong was stunned for a moment, gathered his strength, carefully observed Steele from the perspective of the soul for a while, and then said, "She is not a believer of the God of Conspiracy. If I am not wrong, she should be a believer of the God of Aristocracy."
"Oh … Noble Lady (another name for the God of Aristocracy), that is not much different from the Dim Moon. At that time, with the help of the Dim Moon, he murdered the former God of State and Diplomacy, and then stole the three priesthoods of 'aristocracy', 'law', and 'ruling', and became a real God from a demigod. They were originally allies, so what is the difference between the believers of the Dim Moon and the believers of the Dim Moon? "
"Ah?!" This story was not in the information of the God of Redemption. Sui Xiong was stunned, and it took him a long time to come to his senses. "Damn! No wonder the aristocratic circle is so messy. It turns out that if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked! "
He sighed for a while, and then asked curiously, "The God of Aristocracy is also a Human God, right? Does the Human God System have no reaction to this? I remember that the Master God of the Human God System, the Human God, is in the lawful camp. Does he actually allow the Human Gods to secretly do something with the Gods of other God System? "
Ray was a little puzzled. "There are a lot of evil camps in the Human God System, why can't they allow their own members to have contact with the Dim Moon? Conspiracies are commonplace in politics, and it's the same even for the gods! "
Sui Xiong was stunned for a long time, and could only shake his head and sigh. Thousands of words turned into one sentence.
"The aristocratic circle is really messy!"
