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

Chapter 171 A troublesome matter
three days later.

"Only source blood?" Isis showed an unexpected look when she came to Ganon's territory.

"That's right, I think your purpose... this should be what Prince Aliu wants. Dark Night City and the Empire are joining forces to chase down a mere vampire duke." Ganon replied calmly.

"Are you planning to save the life of the daughter of the Lord of Red Moon City?" Isis asked.

"It's useless to give you such a life, why not leave it to me. If you are willing to pay a high price, such a few additional conditions should not matter." Ganouen said.

Isis looked at Ganon and quickly figured out the red dragon's thoughts.

"Are you interested in the vampire princess herself, or is it something else?" Isis asked tentatively.

"You just need to answer whether you are willing to accept it." Ganon replied coldly.

"I guess you may have already raided the group of exiles?" Isis was still probing.

"Does this have anything to do with our deal?" Ganon asked.

"Unfortunately, the deal we are asking for is for all the exiles who escaped from Red Moon City, including the things they took away." Isis shook her head.

"Did they take away something important?" Ganon asked knowingly.

"You suddenly proposed to change the contents of the transaction. I guess you already have an idea." Isis said.

"Pay attention to what you say. You are the ones who want to make demands now. I'm not good at guessing riddles." Ganon said.

"Okay, let me tell you straight. In addition to the source blood, we also want a treasure. I think you should have got it." Isis looked directly into Ganon's eyes, "We have already talked about it. At this point, you shouldn’t have to hide it anymore.”

Ganon's conjecture was verified. Prince Aliu wanted not only the blood of other vampire princes, but also the artifact originally held by Van Helsing.

A vampire prince collects the blood of other princes. The most likely reason Ganon can think of is to strengthen his own power.

For those who value power, the value of artifacts is self-evident.

"Haha, you don't have to hide it? How dare you say that. You didn't mention anything about this at the beginning." Ganon said sarcastically.

"We have not lied to you. We have always said that we hope you hand over the escapees from Red Moon City, and our request has never changed." Faced with Ganon's questioning, Isis looked very calm.

"Don't change the concept, devil, deception and concealment are two different things. You are also trying to be vague now. Did you say that it was a treasure, and that it was an ordinary treasure? Don't you know that I can identify treasures just by intuition? Is it worth it?" Ganon said.

"I'm just a demon responsible for delivering messages. I don't know all the secrets. Please don't make things difficult for me." Isis shrugged innocently.

"If you want to pretend to be free, then I'll tell you the truth. That artifact is in my hands now. You should have thought about what it means to take a treasure of this level from a dragon. In short, don't even think about taking the artifact. If you just want to source it, Blood, we can still talk about it." Ganon directly made the conditions.

Even an ordinary real dragon would not be willing to hand over artifact-level treasures. For a dragon, it was worth risking his life to protect.

For Ganon, who is the master of the Endless Tower, possessing the divine supreme artifact is a condition that cannot be compromised. "Is there really no room for negotiation on this matter?" Isis asked.

"Compared with artifacts, gold coins are as much as dirt. It's useless for you to empty the treasury unless you can get artifacts of equal value in exchange." Ganon stared at Isis and said.

"Since you believe that artifact is so precious, do you really think we can easily come up with an artifact of equal value?" Isis asked.

"Whether you can take it or not is up to you. Anyway, now that the artifact is in my hands, it's you who want to complete the deal, not me." Ganon said.

The divinity of the "Immortal Skull" was transferred to the Endless Tower, but the skull was still an ordinary artifact.

If you propose this deal, even if you can't catch other artifacts, you still have the opportunity to investigate other artifacts that the other party may have.

The other end of this transaction was Prince Aliu. Ganon guessed that the empire was unlikely to pay such a high price for him. If it really wanted to give him another artifact, Prince Aliu would have to find a way on his own.

Ganon guessed that Prince Aliu might actually have such a magical weapon.

The power contained in the "Immortal Skull" can not only transform the living into undead creatures, but also allow the holder of the artifact to temporarily forgive death while the artifact is in effect, whether the head is chopped off or the heart is pierced. In theory, Even if the body is burned to ashes, this artifact can temporarily ensure that the holder's soul is not absorbed by the underworld and can continue to exist in the world and find a new body or Horcrux to attach to.

This effect is very powerful for vampires. Vampires can repair their bodies by replenishing blood. The bodies of vampires above Duke can turn into mist. Their body reshaping ability has been exaggerated to the point that as long as the heart is not damaged, it can be regenerated with enough blood. Degree.

Once the "Immortal Skull" is possessed, even if the heart is damaged, the vampire can survive and then regenerate by ingesting blood.

Prince Aliu knew that Van Helsing had such a magical weapon, but he still launched an attack on Red Moon City.

What's even more bizarre is that Van Helsing, who owns this artifact, seems to have easily concluded that he has no chance of winning the battle, and gives both the artifact and the source blood to his daughter.

The best explanation is that Prince Aliwu may have an artifact in his hand that can compete with it.

Of course, this is just Ganon's guess. Even if Prince Aliu really has such a magical weapon, it is unlikely that he will agree to this deal. He is just testing it casually.

"I understand, and I will convey your opinion." Isis said respectfully, suddenly changing the subject, "However, if this transaction cannot be completed, I am afraid it will not be a good thing for you. Her Majesty the Queen has decided to negotiate with you Negotiate because it might be a better deal, not out of fear of you.”

"You wouldn't be stupid enough to threaten me here, demon." Ganon narrowed his eyes.

"Of course not, it's just a simple and easy-to-understand truth. Naturally, I sincerely hope that the result of the transaction can satisfy every party." Isis put a smile on her face and saluted respectfully, "Then, I will bring I take my leave with your reply, and wish you well, mighty true dragon."

Isis left, and Ganon finally had an idea of ​​the matter.

What Prince Aliu really wants is indeed the artifact, and he cannot make concessions on this matter. This fundamental contradiction may be irreconcilable.

At the same time, if this deal is not reached, the peace agreement between the empire and him will also be shelved.The Empire and Dark Night City will probably not give up on using force to resolve this matter.

"Another trouble," Ganon thought to himself.
