Chapter 139 Reward!
In the face of real art, the performances of other song and dance groups were completely outclassed, and even seemed childish and ridiculous!
This is the battle song and dance that can represent the undead tribe!
The Earl suppressed the excitement in his heart and muttered:
"The inspiration for this outstanding creation comes from——"
Daisy pushed Shen Ye directly.
She did not answer this question herself, but left it to Shen Ye!
——Because I am sincerely convinced!
Chen Ye was also prepared. Just as he was about to talk nonsense, a light suddenly flashed in his heart.
wrong.
Why should I tell the count a story?
You can obviously use this opportunity to do something!
"Lord Earl, our inspiration comes from large-scale summoning and sacrificial activities." Shen Ye said.
"Sacrificial activities?" The count was a little curious.
"Yes, ancient sacrificial activities -" Shen Ye continued according to Big Skull's explanation at the time: "To boost morale before the war starts, and then the army sets out to flatten the entire world."
The count thought carefully and couldn't help but nodded slightly.
This creative inspiration represents loyalty to the undead, as well as the ambition and desire of being an undead.
"It's a very good idea, a very good work," the count clapped softly, and then said in a different tone: "But it is still very difficult for our undead clan to conquer the entire world, hahaha."
He laughed, as if in a good mood.
"Thank you for your compliment." Daisy took Shen Ye and Lily to greet the count again.
The count waved his hand.
The blank legal realm disappears.
Several people returned to the study of Phantom Manor again.
The count walked behind the desk, took a book from the bookshelf, and opened it:
"This morning, the Terrans have signed a peace agreement with us."
"I will lead the undead delegation to visit the human race to celebrate the birthday of the king of the Holy Violet Empire and present gifts and an opera performance."
——The count has made his choice.
He planned to choose the Rose of Darkness Song and Dance Troupe to go to the Holy Violet Empire with him.
Ms. Daisy and Lily were both overjoyed.
Shen Ye was thoughtful.
The orc threat is imminent.
The situation in this world has become increasingly dangerous!
At this time, the undead sent the powerful count to the capital of the human empire to celebrate his birthday——
In fact, it was probably to discuss countermeasures with humans and elves.
After all, even Prince Norton has a court mage from the elves around him.
As long as the Undead Earl goes to the imperial capital of the human race, he will definitely be able to meet with the senior officials of the human race and the elves.
That's about it.
But you can't say this openly, lest you irritate the orcs, or the negotiation between the three tribes fails and shakes the morale of the army.
The count recited a spell, put his hand deep into the book, and took out a few things.
"Daisy, this string of ghost jewelry is given to you. It symbolizes my friendship with the Rose of the Night Song and Dance Troupe, and will also make you more eye-catching in your performance."
"Thank you, Lord Earl." Daisy bowed slightly and caught the crystal clear jewelry necklace with both hands.
"Lily, your performance is amazing. This 'Dancer's Mask' is given to you to make you more realistic in various performances."
"Thank you, Lord Earl." Lily also accepted a pale and flawless mask.
"Baxter, your creative talent is extremely high. In time, you will definitely become a famous singer all over the world - but I heard that you were bombed to pieces on the battlefield. This is not good. I will give you a emblem."
"Thank you, Lord Count." Shen Ye took a bloody emblem with both hands.
The count waved casually.
Two waiters suddenly walked out of the void beside him.
"Miss Lily, please come with me. I will take you to the banquet hall to rest." A waiter said.
Lily followed the waiter and left the study.
"Mr. Baxter, please come this way. I will take you to complete the protective measures." Another waiter said.
Ms. Daisy stayed and seemed to have something to discuss with the earl.
Shen Ye followed the waiter through the corridor and down the stairs.
Soon they were clear of the ground.
The stairs continue down.
Shen Ye felt a little guilty for no reason, but quickly suppressed his emotions.
What a panic!
Even if Kevin files a complaint, he still has a door and can leave at any time.
Calm down.
He followed the waiter for another seven or eight minutes, and saw nothing around him except the stairs extending downwards and the blazing torches inserted into the wall.
At this time, a lookout tower protruding forward appeared in front.
Beyond the lookout, there was only darkness like an abyss.
From time to time, various painful moans and slight crying could be heard continuously.
——God knows what is being held here!
When Shen Ye stood on the stage, the waiter slowly spoke:
"Mr. Baxter, please sign this transmission contract."
A contract was placed on the table in front of Shen Ye.
There is something special about this contract.
Six streams of blood met at the center of the contract like water, then passed through the entire contract, falling down the table and flowing down into the dark abyss below the stage.
This contract seems to be some kind of living body, connected to this place through blood flow, and will never be separated.
"Let me explain it in advance."
"This contract is the summoning circle of soldiers of the 'Shadow Manor'. Only by obtaining the Earl's badge can you sign on it and use its summoning power.
"Mr. Baxter, after the contract is completed, you can activate the summoning mark on the emblem to call a guard from the Shadow Manor to protect your safety!"
“You can use it once a day!”
Shen Ye was slightly startled.
At this time, lines of small, dim characters appeared in the void, supporting what the other party said:
"The guard contract is being signed." "Use the Earl's badge to complete the contract and obtain the guard power of the Shadow Manor."
What are you waiting for?
——I may not need the earl’s protection, but I need the earl’s approval!
That way, many things will be easier to do.
Shen Ye pressed the badge on the contract.
The blood flowed around Shen Ye, as if recognizing him and remembering him.
The contract is being signed!
other side.
study.
Ms. Daisy has left.
The Earl sat alone on the sofa, shaking his red wine glass, still recalling the feeling of ordering billions of undead to fight just now.
Tuk-tuk-tuk!
Someone knocked on the door.
"Kevin, the leader of thieves in Evernight City, has something to report."
"Let him in."
The door opens.
The short living corpse walked into the room, knelt on one knee, lowered his head and said:
"I have something to report."
"explain."
"My subordinates followed Baxter of the Night Rose Revue and discovered that he had purchased prohibited materials."
"What materials did he buy?"
"Materials for large-scale summoning sacrifices - this is expressly prohibited."
The earl frowned slightly.
I thought it was something.
Large-scale summoning of sacrifices...
Come to think of it, Baxter said that the work was inspired by large-scale summoning rituals.
What a wonderful piece of work.
Having said that, I had also hesitated whether to make materials used in large-scale summoning ritual activities prohibited.
actually--
At this moment when the orcs are rising, at this moment when the battle is being defeated on the front line, at this moment when the morale of the undead clan is low——
Events like this are needed to inspire.
At least I was encouraged.
Besides, this kind of sacrificial activity has nothing to do with that incident at all.
I was too careful.
"Give me my order."
said the Count.
The void behind him moved, and two staff members appeared.
"From now on, no more bans on large-scale rituals, we need it now," the count said.
"Yes!" The staff member responded and left in a hurry to handle this matter.
Only then did the count remember that there was someone in front of him.
"Kevin," the count crossed his legs and took a sip of red wine, "have you ever accepted money from Baxter?"
"Yes, my subordinate took it." Kevin didn't dare to hide it.
"Oh? When did it happen?"
"Once was to search his residence, and once was to purchase materials - Lord Earl, they were all given voluntarily by him."
The earl listened quietly, with a hint of sarcasm on his lips.
Given voluntarily?
What kind of virtues do these hyenas have? Doesn’t he, a dog owner, know?
“Okay, this singer has a great future in the future, so don’t stare at her anymore, understand?”
said the earl.
Kevin murmured for a while, but after all, he did not dare to mention the disappearance of his men again.
——Baxter is now the popular man in front of the earl.
The count has already made a judgment on the whole matter. If he doesn't have any strong evidence, it's better not to anger him.
otherwise……
What if the disappearance of the two men really has nothing to do with Baxter——
The count knows how to kill.
——I can’t afford to risk my life to go head-to-head with a singer.
"yes."
Kevin buried his head deeply and responded in a sincere tone.
"Okay, go down and do the work. I will see ten million bone coins in your hand at the end of the year. If you can't complete it, you will go to the canal to work as a coolie. Understand."
"Understood, I will resign."
Kevin stood up, arched his back, and slowly left the study.
The count was lost in thought.
I have always been generous to those who please me.
otherwise--
Who else is willing to do things for themselves?
That singer is very talented, and she may need his help in learning her skills in the future.
And a hyena is just a hyena, and you can always get a new one.
So……
The count waved behind him.
"Go and raise Baxter's security level. At least... it will make him feel better..."
"My subordinate understands."
