Pioneering

Chapter 51 Blackmail and Provocation

Zhong Ming rode on An Mir, saw Wang Du's back completely disappeared from sight, suddenly stopped, jumped down and said to An Mir:
"An Mir, if you guard the vicinity of Skeller City, if you meet anyone who goes to Shuster or Sford, I will bite off all their legs.

When I get back to the hotel I'll let Hertha come for you. "

Although Grand Duke Anthos agreed to help block the news, Earl Lailton, as a great nobleman, has countless contacts in the capital.

Even if Minister of Intelligence Beryl ordered the intelligence department to block the news, it is still unknown how effective it would be.

Zhong Ming has always believed that it is better to ask for help than to ask for help from others. Asking Dagong for help is just a small trick commonly used by Blue Star to reflect the level and strength of leaders.

Subordinates have done everything well, so what's the point of having a leader?
Hertha was still guarding Kesarina, and Zhong Ming had no choice but to ride Bestor back.

When Zhong Ming returned to the hotel, he might even be in time to have dinner with Kesha Lena.

The five meals a day are commonly referred to as: breakfast, brunch, lunch, late lunch, dinner.

At night, with the silver moon hanging high, it is a good time to blackmail... oh no, to negotiate.

Inside the main building of the Sford family castle.

A maid was carrying a plate and gently knocked on the door of "Earl Buckle".

The maid said tremblingly, "My lord, it's time for supper."

In recent years, "Earl Buckle" has been immersed in the pain of bereavement of his wife and son, and his temperament has changed drastically. His servants are often executed by the Earl for various reasons, so the maids can't help being afraid of the moody "Earl Buckle" .

"Understood, put it outside."

A gloomy voice came from inside the door, and the owner of the obvious voice was not in a good mood right now.

The maid who heard the answer felt amnesty, put the plate on a table outside the door, turned around and left.

Inside the house, a man with a resolute appearance was looking at a letter in disgust, and couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "Damn bastard, postpone it, postpone it, or postpone it, old bastard, you really think I'm easy to bully!" ? If you weren’t Karin’s father, I would have killed you #￥@…”

It was the shapeshifter Anleka disguised as Earl Buckle Sford.

Angry, Anleka tore the letter to pieces, threw it into the fireplace, and frantically circled around, with red eyes, as if she wanted to kill her "future father-in-law" immediately.

"Damn it, I don't know which bastard stole the letter I put away, could it be that old bastard Lailton repented and wanted to destroy the evidence?
Impossible, that old bastard is so greedy, there's no way he wouldn't eat a piece of the earldom.

But who should the others be?I killed all the servants who were near the study that night, but I still have no clue who stole the letter? "

After being impotent and furious, Anleka sat slumped on a chair, took out a pocket watch from her pocket, carefully opened the watch cover, looked at the portrait on the inside of the watch cover, and her expression instantly became extremely gentle. Rubbing the portrait lightly with his fingers, he fell into fond memories.

"Yo Yo Yo, you look so deeply in love, what's wrong? Do shapeshifters have true love with humans?"

The playful ridicule interrupted Anleka's fond memories, and even directly pierced Anleka's disguise.

"Who? Who is it? Sneaky, come out!"

When Anleka heard that someone revealed her identity, she was in a turmoil.

"Who am I? If you want to know, then come and meet me in the woods behind the castle." The mysterious voice invited.

A moment later, under the guidance of the mysterious voice, Anleka came to a forest far away from the castle.

At this time, Zhong Ming was wearing a black hooded robe, a golden wig on his head, and a full-face ghost mask. He stood on top of An Mir's head, staring at the slowly approaching Anleka with deep black eyes.

Anleka looked at the huge dog-shaped monster nearly 40 meters high in front of him, and felt the difference in strength between himself and it. Without confidence, most of his thoughts of killing people and killing them disappeared.

They stared at each other for a long time, silent.

"Who exactly is Your Excellency? What is the purpose of looking for me? How do you see that Your Excellency is not the kind of stunned young man who would yell and kill me when he finds out my alien identity?" Anleka still couldn't hold back her voice.

Anleka regained her composure along the way, she didn't directly expose her identity, and she didn't come up and shouted and killed, obviously there was something to talk about.

Zhong Ming crossed his hands behind his back, and said inscrutablely:

"Who am I? Good question! This philosophical question is really deep, and I'm afraid it's hard for me to answer you.

But my purpose is easy to explain. To put it simply, I want to make a deal with you. "

"Deal?" Anleka asked.

"I don't know what will happen to you if these letters and your identity are exposed?"

Zhong Ming shook the letters in his hands, and a video appeared between the two of them in due time.

Enleka saw that it was the letter she had lost a few days ago, and the video was the process of changing back to Earl Buckle after her tryst with Karin.

"What do you want?" Anleka pretended to be calm and said with bulging veins in her hands.

"I want all the extraordinary heritage of the Sford family, remember, it's all!" Zhong Ming said word by word, "It's not very useful to you anyway, is it?"

Anleka cursed secretly in her heart: Why not big, those resources are very useful to anyone!

Zhong Ming continued: "Think about it, your purpose is not to use chickens to lay eggs, and pretend to be Earl Buckle's identity, but to marry the girl you love, what is this sacrifice?
You are reluctant to say that you love her? "

The tempering during this period has greatly enhanced Master Zhong's language (fudge) skills.

"How do I know if you will reveal my identity after you take the things?" Anleka still let go, and asked in a deep voice.

"I'm a wizard, and wizards always exchange at equal value, don't they?" Zhong Ming replied, "You have no choice, do you? Unless you are sure to take me down?"

Zhong Ming thought in his heart: Unfortunately, I am not only a wizard, I am also a knight, and a future nobleman. As we all know, the Holy Master never keeps his promises.

Seeing the hesitant Anleka, Zhong Ming was ready to strike while the iron was hot.

"Of course, I didn't take your things for nothing. Well, I'm giving you some information, which is a bonus!" Zhong Ming took out another photo stone and played it.

The shapeshifter Anleka looked at the image in the photo stone that Leighton had arranged for his subordinates to secretly deal with his own image, and his face suddenly darkened and frightened.

An Leika said angrily in her heart: Damn it, that old bastard never thought of marrying Karin to me, he wanted me to die!He wants me to die!
"I agree, but I still want the other half." Anleka suppressed her anger.

Master Zhong never traded at a loss, and only showed half of Earl Laidon's arrangement to Anleka.

Zhong Ming said solemnly: "If you want to know the detailed arrangement of Earl Layton, then the price has to be raised even higher, and I also want the location of the treasury of the Schuster family.

Don't tell me, you've been hanging out with Earl Layton's only daughter for so long, you don't even know the location of the treasure house! "

"You think!" Anleka said in surprise.

"Hey, don't get excited, why is your father-in-law going to kill you, do you still feel sorry for his family property?"

……

After a long silence, Anleka said, "I agree. The treasury of the Schuster family is..."

After closing the transaction.

Zhong Ming, who had successfully tapped Anleka, touched the space ring on his left index finger in satisfaction, and sighed: This trip has been very rewarding.

As for whether or not to take advantage of the opportunity to hit Earl Layton again, Zhong Ming thought about it and decided not to startle the snake.

Anyway, knowing the location of the Huster family's treasure house, after I send it to the Huster family in order, the things and the site will be my own sooner or later.

In this regard, blackmail and provocation kill two birds with one stone.
