I'm a dragon, I only want to steal princesses

Chapter 170 The option to maximize benefits
"I don't plan to hand you over directly for the time being."

Near the entrance to the Endless Tower, Ganon first stated his conclusion to Annie and others who were forcibly brought back.

"Okay, okay, now that you are the boss, you can say whatever you want. You don't have to pick something to reassure us. Even if you want to throw us into a pot to make bone soup, and then turn His Highness into a bed There is nothing we can do about the plaything." Raymond spread his hands.

"What do you mean, will I be used as a doll on the bedside?" Anne Luojie asked confusedly.

"Don't be like this, Your Highness, you will make me feel guilty..." Raymond waved his hand.

"I really don't have to worry about what you think, so what I tell you is the truth." Ganon replied calmly.

"You really don't plan to hand us over?" Raymond asked suspiciously.

"Strictly speaking, handing you over will be the last option. If not necessary, I will still try to keep you." Ganon replied.

"What is your reason for doing this? From what I heard, Long Ke is a profit-oriented person. Do you really care about the promises you made to us before?" Raymond asked.

He knew very well that the deal that Gannon mentioned before asking them to hand over the artifacts voluntarily, and then he would promise to protect them, was actually just a formality. The ownership of the artifact is basically already in Ganon's hands, and he can snatch it away at any time.

Just like now, Ganon can break this promise at any time. A contract that is only binding on one party can only be regarded as a declaration of the strong party, and it is only a matter of a word from the other party to change the order.

"I do value profit, but don't forget that it is also beneficial to me for you to stay here." Ganon said seriously, "I don't think this deal requires you to die, even if it is just for the best interests. For cultural reasons, I should also protect you."

"This sounds somewhat true. Please tell me what your plans are, Lord." Raymond said.

"The empire is actually making the request on behalf of Prince Aliu. What Prince Aliu wants is the blood of other vampire princes. Since that kind of thing can be given, it shouldn't cause death if it is taken out." Ganon stared at it. Anne Roger said.

Anne Luo Jie hesitated to speak.

"I know it's useless for you to talk about morality, but you are really going too far." Raymond commented.

In order to let his daughter get rid of the curse and live a normal life in the future, Fan Hexin, the lord of Red Moon City, chose to give up his life and leave his source blood to his daughter. It can be said that this source blood is a precious relic left by Anne Luojie's father for her, and it will also determine whether she will be able to live a normal life in the future. The key to getting rid of the curse.

Ganouen asked her to hand over this source blood to her father-killing enemy, which no normal person could easily accept.

"It's better than being killed. You have no chance to take revenge. With me as guarantee, if the deal is reached, at least your safety can be guaranteed." Ganon paused as he spoke, "And if so, I might be able to directly How about undoing her curse?"

"Really?" Raymond was a little surprised.

"The curse on Annerogie is ultimately caused by the power of the artifact. Since becoming a vampire can alleviate the curse, it means that it is feasible to make Annerogie a higher-level undead. You have already seen the mark of the God of Death. That divine seal can accommodate the divinity and power of the God of Death and control it perfectly, and the origin of the vampire family also stems from the power of the God of Death," Ganon said.

"You mean, that divine seal can also make His Highness a prince-level vampire?" Raymond said in surprise.

"It has a similar effect." Ganon replied.

The "immortality" power extracted from the "Immortal Skull" is the power to transform the living into the undead. Anne Luojie was originally cursed by the artifact, but she was actually unable to fully withstand the overly powerful power of the artifact. After excessive transformation, There are side effects and costs.As the ancestor of the God of Death, the power to transform humanoid creatures into vampires is also an extension of this power. Van Helsing used his first embrace to transform Anne Luojie into a vampire, which is equivalent to Anne's immortal transformation. Got back on track a little bit.

As long as Ganon's "immortal" power reaches a sufficient level, he can more finely adjust Anne's immortal transformation to make the side effects disappear.

He confirmed this with Shitou.

But at the moment, there is still a certain risk in using this power directly on Annie. It is better to obtain the next artifact of the God of Death to restore the power of the divine seal to be more secure.

"You never said at the beginning that you just made it up to deceive us, right?" Raymond was dubious.

"In the beginning, there was a safer plan to let her absorb the source blood, and I didn't need to mention it. And why should I go to all the trouble to deceive a bunch of guys who can just throw it into a pot and make bone soup?" Ganouen took it by the way. The talker in front of Raymond teased him a lot.

Raymond began to exchange ideas with Anne Luo Jie and others by using the echo of the soul.

It's not that they haven't considered things like revenge, but it's too far away. They have to walk on thin ice and do their best just to survive.

To be realistic, handing over the source blood was something they would never consider unless it was absolutely necessary. They still prioritized lifting Anelloje's curse.

But if it really comes down to having no other choice, and doing so can allow Prince Aliu to spare them, it might not be the last option.

And this final option is simply a luxury wish for them. When they fall into the hands of the other party, it is not up to them whether they hand over the source blood or whether they can survive. After taking the source blood, Aliu The prince could kill them casually. This position was the same as when Ganon discovered the artifact they had hidden. The fish on the chopping board had no right to negotiate.

But it would be different if Ganon could make the empire take the initiative to make concessions. Their lives were actually of little value to Prince Aliu. If Ganon wanted to save them, after getting the source blood, Prince Aliu would It shouldn't be like attacking a giant dragon that even the Dragon Spine Empire can't defeat just to kill them all.

And if Ganon can really lift Annie's curse, then they really have nothing to hesitate.

They didn't fully believe the red dragon's words. Giant dragons are also famous for their cruelty. Some dragons like to give others hope of survival and then destroy it and then appreciate others' despair, just like a cat playing with a mouse - this type Sadism actually exists in all intelligent races.

But now they can only pray that what Ganon said is true. At least so far, Ganon has not behaved as cruelly as other dragons.

"But the problem is..." Ganon suddenly changed the subject, "Is the source blood really what Prince Aliu wants?"

"What do you mean?" Raymond and Anellojie were both stunned.

"He should have a purpose for trying so hard to kill other vampire princes. If his purpose is related to the artifact, then things may be a little troublesome. But this has nothing to do with you. If he dealt with Van Helsing for the artifact, ..." Ganon said while thinking.

"How come it doesn't matter? If you hand over the artifact, won't His Highness's curse be unsolvable?" Raymond suddenly realized the problem.

"Hand over the artifact?" Ganon glanced at Raymond, "No, this option does not exist for me."
