The Devil Inside
Page 53
One of them was Director Tibbs, and the other one, surprisingly, was one of the members of the City Committee, Logistics Committee Member Beckett!
That's Beckett who gave Adrian the news.
Ross said, "I just recently learned from Mr. Tibbers that Beckett also possesses the 'Tundra Weaver'. Just two days ago, his seal was upgraded to the 'Tundra Weaver Mother'. After hearing that there is a way to continue evolving, he also wants to attend the meeting."
Han Solo asked, "You agree?"
"I didn't want to agree. Beckett was very sincere and promised to do his best in next year's 'Brave Team Selection'. Not only will he support it himself, but he will also use his influence to win the support of several other committee members..."
Ross looked unhappy.
He shook his head: "I think that for Rachel's sake, we should maintain a cooperative relationship with him. Mr. Tibbs also sent someone to intercede. But I still don't know what to do...Xiao Han, what do you think?"
This is asking for Han Solo's opinion.
Butler Ross still respected him.
Han Solo had no objection. Rachel was just too slutty, playing White Album over there, doing two raids in one action. This was probably what the top-grade cauldrons in the world of cultivation were like.
If she joins the brave team, it will be so great, right?
Han Solo said, "If it helps Rachel, I don't mind sharing my experience with him."
Ross breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, Beckett doesn't dare to break the promise he made to the Darkwood family."
He smiled and continued, "He sent me a painting yesterday, an authentic work by a famous artist. I have already sent it to a powerful pawnshop. I estimate it can be sold for fifty or sixty gold coins. It is free money anyway. When the time comes, I will have someone send it directly to you."
"Isn't that nice? That was given to you by Beckett."
"Wrong! This is for you. Without you, this 'discussion meeting' wouldn't be possible at all."
You're saying that...
That’s okay too.
Chapter 60#060 Viola in Rumors
Auschwitz, the fifth floor which is not open to the public.
Before entering the private room, you can hear the sound of light instruments. When you step in, the first thing that catches your eye is a band.
A gorgeous woman in a flirtatious long dress was sitting on a chair, playing the harp and singing, looking very expensive.
"coming!"
An old man in a suit and tie, with a kind face, looks like a kind old man, of a very high status.
He pointed at Han Solo and smiled kindly.
The old man had long hair that reached his back.
As he got older, his hair turned white like snow, but it didn't look dry at all. I don't know if it was natural white hair or if he took good care of it.
This is a member of Arendelle's board of directors.
Railway tycoon, Mr. Tibbs.
Next to Tibers stood a round-faced man.
He also had a broad nose and wide eyes. He was not handsome, but he had a certain aura. His graying hair was combed back, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows were intimidating. Even though he had a round face, he still looked a bit dignified.
He is Beckett, Arendelle's logistics committee member.
The logistics committee member sounds like someone who looks after the warehouse, nothing special.
In fact, he was in charge of Arendelle's material supply and the purchasing director. He could easily place large orders worth thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins with just a pen in hand and his name signed.
No.
It is not appropriate to use large orders, it is huge orders.
Let's say that.
Beckett is very happy, then you are a rich man on the Zeslia list;
Beckett is unhappy, just wait for bankruptcy, idiot.
He is truly a big shot, you can imagine how he is treated on a daily basis.
It is hard to say who has the strongest fighting ability and who has the highest status among the people present.
But when it comes to who gets the most attention, who gets the most flattery and adulation, it's undoubtedly Commissioner Beckett.
The white-haired Tibbers looked at Han Solo and said, "Mr. Han, you are a hero! I heard the report about the Knitting Club. It's amazing! Commissioner Beckett, don't you agree?"
"Ah? Oh!"
Beckett came back to his senses, his face looking a little solemn.
He smiled and said, "Han Solo, do you know who the 'president' of the Knitting Society, Diana, is?"
"A cultist?"
Han Solo said.
Beckett laughed and said, "One cultist is nothing. There are countless cults in the Zelmon Continent, but most of them are insignificant. This Diana is definitely not ordinary. She is one of the 'Twelve Priests' of the Church of Time. She is extremely powerful and a top-notch expert! Her bounty, which is posted on the witch hunting agency, is this amount."
He spread out his five short fingers and shook them.
Han Soloki said, "Fifty...five hundred gold coins?"
"Five thousand! Five thousand gold coins!"
Beckett emphasized his tone, creating an atmosphere.
He chuckled and added, "Of course, if you want to get the five thousand, there are additional requirements. You must hand over Diana's head, along with the artifact in her hand, to get the full reward."
Five thousand gold coins...
Han Solo calculated quickly.
Five thousand Elzliya gold coins can be used to support a female engraver for fifteen thousand months.
What is this concept?
It covers 1,250 years. This cannot cover humans, it has to cover an immortal species.
Elves or dragon ladies or something like that, their descendants will be endless, that's so awesome.
That Diana, turns out to be a treasure.
It’s a pity that Han Solo can’t hand in the “Soul-Binding Gas Lamp”, otherwise there would be no need to fight.
He showed some amazement, and sighed deliberately: "Miss Viola is so strong!"
The people present did not notice anything unusual.
They all believed that Viola was closely related to Diana's death.
Beckett smiled and said, "Miss Viola Ashford is highly regarded by the black wizard. Now it seems that the rumors are true. Professor Monica taught the real thing."
"Miss Ashford, in recent decades... no, it can be said that since the founding of Arendelle, there have been only a handful of students with her level. She is a 'historical level' and should have great achievements in the future."
Tibbers praised her at first, then changed the subject and said, "But it's a pity. Miss Ashford's inherent talent is the factor that hinders her progress. It is her tragedy!"
Han Solo listened and said, "The Lady of Night is indeed a...disgusting existence."
"You should say awe." Tibers smiled, "That is a powerful being."
Certain very advanced inherent talents and imprints, especially when involving some mysterious beings, have differences in quality.
Sometimes, even the effects are different.
Viola has a very high affinity with the Lady of Night. The reason she can enter the virtual world must be because of the protection of the Lady of Night.
This is no longer ordinary intimacy.
She is watched by the Lady of Night.
The Lady of the Night was a real person who rose from humble origins, killed the king and seized power. She once overthrew a great empire and became an empress.
But she was quickly overthrown.
Her body was destroyed, her indestructible soul was sent into the virtual world and sealed, but her will continues.
There has never been a shortage of ambitious people on the Zelmon continent. After Lady of the Night, many others have successfully usurped or attempted to usurp the empire.
People soon discovered a horrifying pattern.
It turns out that more than half of those traitors who killed the king and gathered people to rebel had the inherent talent of "Lady of the Night"!
Since then, those who engraved the Lady of Night have been particularly wary, and "close ones" like Viola have been guarded even more strictly.
Don’t even think about going into politics or joining the military.
Even if you are an adventurer, you cannot do too well or become too famous.
If your noble grandfather, royal relatives and royal relatives can't sleep because of you, then you have to worry about whether you can wake up tomorrow.
Han Solo was originally doubtful.
After seeing Viola's skills, it was hard for him to imagine that he had never come into contact with her in the game.
On skills.
How many people in the whole of Arendelle can seriously injure Diana?
What’s more, Viola is still very young and has a bright future ahead of her;
On friendship.
Viola's raven star rating is two stars, the same level as Rachel at the beginning;
On origin.
Putting aside Viola's noble status, she is a disciple of Professor Monica, so she can be considered presentable.
With someone like this, how could she not become Leila's teammate?
After much thought, it can only be her inherent talent that limits her.
Tibbers was right.
"Lady of the Night" is Viola's sad song.
Beckett laughed and said, "It is undeniable that Lady Night's talent is met with resistance and hostility. But Mr. Tibbers, without this talent, Miss Ashford might not be where she is today."
Tibers picked up the teacup and said, "So, I said this is a 'tragedy'. Her talent brings her great power, but she cannot get the respect she deserves. Commissioner Beckett, isn't this sad?"
"...That's a very insightful comment. I've learned a lot."
"Ha ha!"
Tibers laughed, turned around and said, "Waiter, the meal may begin."
The waiters who were standing respectfully on the side started to get busy, removing the snacks and tea on the table and began to serve the dishes.
The band changed to a more soothing piece and the very expensive bard sat against the wall.
During the banquet.
With the exception of Han Solo, the other three could be considered big shots, and their communication was humorous, thoughtful, and well-paced, without missing a single word throughout the entire conversation.
Han Solo acted like a junior, listened more and talked less, and watched them show off quietly. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Mr. Tibbs saw that it was about time, so he waved his hand to the waiter and gave him some instructions.
Panasonic stopped.
The very expensive bard bowed and left with the orchestra. The waiters also filed out, leaving only four people in the room.
Beckett straightened his back.
Ross smiled and said, "Xiao Han, it is said that the Tundra Weaver can evolve, right?"
Han Solo knew that this was the point.
Chapter 61 #061 Really give it to me, brother?
Following the plan, Han Solo concealed the "Bloody Weaver" and explained the upgrade conditions of the "Doom Weaver".
