Hela looked at the room Sean had arranged for her with some curiosity.

Originally, she thought that what was waiting for her would be a prison cell, but the result was completely different from what she had imagined.

This is a very clean room, the furnishings in the room are very simple, that is, the common vases, desks, oil paintings and other choices, but it can be clearly seen that it has been carefully adjusted and furnished, because the whole room looks like a unique simplicity and atmosphere. But it wasn't that that really pleased Hela, but the faint fragrance she could smell in this room, a natural floral fragrance rather than a floral fragrance artificially blended by an alchemist.

Hela loves the natural floral scent because it reminds her of her mother's tenderness.

There was a light knock on the door.

Hela came back to her senses and looked at the door, but she didn't speak.

After a few moments, the door rang again.

"Enter...... Come in. Hela finally reacted this time, but after habitually speaking, she finally remembered her situation at the moment, so her words changed slightly.

It was none other than Sean who came in through the door.

With a faint smile on his face, he looked around for a moment before he turned his gaze to Hela and smiled, "How is it, are you still satisfied?" ”

"Very satisfied." Hela nodded generously, her eyes were very clear and calm, and there was no shame of being a prisoner or the arrogance of being treated preferentially.

Simple, clean.

"You said that if we can successfully leave Nugus Manor, then I am qualified to talk to you about the next step of cooperation, right?" Sean pulled out a chair, then sat down, looking at Hela, who was standing in the center of the room, "Now, then." Can we talk about our cooperation? ”

Hela frowned slightly.

To be honest, Hela's appearance is not outstanding, and her facial features will feel good when they are taken out alone, but when they are organized together, they give people a bland feeling, and they will not make people have a dazzling surprise, in Sean's words on Earth, it is the type that can never be found in the typical sea of shame. But even so, Hela still has a temperament that ordinary people don't have, after all, from the moment she is sensible, the skills she has learned and mastered are destined to be impossible for her to be ordinary in this life. Of course, another aspect is also related to her family background.

Therefore, when Hela's brow furrowed slightly, the aura of superiority that she had unique naturally exuded.

It's just that this doesn't make a difference to Sean, who still smiles at Hela.

After a few seconds. Hela, who finally realized that she had lost her temper, came back to her senses, and then pulled out a chair and sat opposite Sean. It's just that her behavior is different from what ordinary people do. She didn't have the slightest pretentiousness or twisting. looked at Sean very calmly and generously, and then said, "What kind of cooperation method?" ”

"You're not the only survivor of the Garcia family." Sean said with a smile on his face.

Looking at Sean's smile, Hela felt that it was almost like a demon's smile. As smart as she is, of course, she knows very well that Sean's words are actually a temptation, a trap that forces her to give up the initiative in negotiation, if it is in any other situation, she will definitely not give up the initiative in negotiation, but this time she can't help it. So after pondering for a few seconds. Hela finally spoke: "How many survivors are there?" ”

"After the Garcia family was framed for a political conspiracy and led to its decline, there were three people who managed to escape from that siege." Sean said calmly, "Two of them are your uncles, and the other is a strong man hired by the Garcia family at that time. …… But I'm guessing you're not interested in that strong man. ”

A mockery flashed in Hela's eyes.

The so-called strong. It's nothing more than lower or upper gold, if the Garcia family had a strong person in the Holy Domain, they wouldn't have become a substitute for the dead because of that political conspiracy. So a simple Golden Realm powerhouse is really not taken seriously by Hela, after all, with her current identity - of course, it was before being captured alive by Sean - not to mention a Golden Realm powerhouse, she is qualified to command a Sanctuary-level powerhouse.

"But in fact, if it weren't for that strong man, let alone your two uncles, even your mother wouldn't be able to escape." Sean had long known that Hela would show such an expression, so there was also a hint of contempt in his tone, and this subtle slap in the face made Sean feel quite pleasant, "I currently have some clues about that strong man, when he went back to save your two uncles after making sure that your mother successfully escaped, of course, I am not sure what the final outcome will be." ”

"What do you mean......" Hela's eyes flashed with excitement, "as long as you find that person, you can find the survivors of the Garcia family?" ”

"I'm not sure, but it's a clue." Sean smiled slightly.

"What do you want me to do?" After being excited, Hela quickly calmed down, of course she knew that Shaun would not say this for no reason, so she had lost the initiative in the negotiation, so she might as well simply listen to what Sean was going to let her do, which was better than bargaining with him without knowing Shaun's bottom line.

"I said, it's cooperation." Sean smiled slightly.

"The definition of collaboration is very broad," he says. Hela said in a deep voice, "I don't know what kind of cooperation you're referring to. ”

"I need subordinates like you."

"Is that any different from making me surrender to you?" Hela let out a sneer.

"Of course." Sean nodded very seriously, "Surrender to me, that means you can only follow my orders." But what I need is not a puppet who only listens to orders, what I need is your talent, your general means of using the general trend that almost drove me to a dead end, your layout ability that is far beyond ordinary people. …… And I, I won't simply treat you as a subordinate, I will restore your reputation, and even let you re-establish the Garcia family. …… If we have to say the essence of the meaning, then it is probably that we are in an equal relationship, not a subordinate relationship. ”

Listening to Sean's words, Hela fell into deep contemplation. She boasts that she sees countless people, and she only needs to have a simple conversation with the other party to see if what the other party says is sincere. And according to her observations, she could see that Sean's words were of course not to fool her, but to tell her these things very seriously, which made Hela a little surprised, why is there such a nobleman in this world?

"Did you and William say the same thing?"

"In the face of William, I have to be simple and rude." Hearing Hela ask, Sean couldn't help but think of what he looked like when he first met William, "I said a word to him. ”

"Simple and crude?" Hela was stunned, "What words?" ”

"I need you."

Hear Sean say this sentence so bluntly. Hela was stunned for a few seconds before she finally couldn't help laughing: "It's really simple and rude enough!" …… You used this sentence to make William follow you from then on? ”

"Trust takes time to build." Sean shrugged his shoulders, he didn't think there was anything wrong with that, he remembered when he was in the game. The head of his guild often said this to people, and then many people were always fooled into getting on the thief ship by him. "I transfer all military authority to him for the entire territory. I never interfered with any of his actions because I didn't think it was necessary, and I believed that he could do it all. …… That's the trust that William and I have built into each other. ”

Hearing Sean's words, Hela's eyes were a little more emotional.

In her impression, what she has learned since she was a child is to deceive herself, because even if it is a relative in the family. To her are all enemies. And kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself, so from the moment she is sensible, she has never experienced what family affection is. Even in the face of her father, her only impression is still the score system in the family - only by getting a higher score can she live, and then stand at the highest point of the entire family and have more authority.

Therefore, Hella has never had such a thing as trust.

Or maybe there is, but that's what others trust her, not that she trusts others.

There is a fundamental difference between the two.

"What do you need me to do?" Hela was silent for a moment before she spoke.

"As I said, I don't need a puppet who will only follow orders." Sean whispered, "With your cleverness, you'll be able to find a place on my team that suits you." …… As I said, trust takes time to build, but I don't mind building trust in you from this moment in time, so if you want to go out for a walk, or go to the conference room to sit in on the meeting and see what is going on for this time, no one will stop you. ”

Hela suddenly fell silent and did not respond to Sean's words.

But Sean didn't mind, he stood up very politely, and then made a noble salute to Hela, and said again: "Regarding your identity, Neil will soon send someone to check with you, and from this moment on, you can officially abandon the surname Nugus and restore the surname Garcia." …… However, since it is currently a time of war, I hope that you can stay in this mansion, even if even the powerhouses of the Holy Realm break through here, they will definitely not hurt you. ”

"I seem to understand a little bit of the reason why you didn't take the Sacred Domain powerhouse seriously." Hela burst out laughing, as if she had captured some secret.

"Things, in fact, are a little complicated, I'll explain it to you when I have a chance later." Sean knew that Hella must have thought of a fork, but at this time he wanted to explain and didn't know where to start, and this matter also involved a lot of other interests, so Sean felt that it was better not to be too clear for the time being.

"As the first step in building trust with each other, I felt compelled to tell you one thing."

"What's the matter?"

"Just before your raid on Nugus Manor, I issued an order for the Burbis Lord's mage regiment to secretly reinforce the Yedby Territory through the Grey Shadow Forest." Hela spoke, "Also, I've made some adjustments to the strength of the Burbis and Kiraf lines, but it's all a trap, and if you attack rashly, you'll only suffer heavy losses. ”

"You're saying you sent the mages to the Yadby Leader via the Forest of Grey Shadows?"

"Yes." Hela nodded, "So I'm here to tell you that your army in Yederby is going to be very dangerous. ”

"If you want to pass through the Gray Shadow Forest, then I don't think I need to worry about it." Sean smiled, "There is an underground black market for demon hunters in the Forest of Gray Shadows, which I have been beaten down by me a long time ago, and I also robbed the Chamber of Commerce Alliance from there, so in fact, I have prepared an ambush there for a long time waiting for you to send someone through the Forest of Gray Shadows." ”

"According to my understanding, the situation in the Forest of Gray Shadows is somewhat complicated, and the military strength of the army I ordered to be allowed to be dispatched is not weaker than that of ordinary troops, and with the assistance of the mage regiment, I am afraid that the combat effectiveness is not much weaker than that of the Fourth Legion." Hela's brows furrowed slightly, and she felt a little incomprehensible about Sean's pride, "So purely in terms of combat power, I don't think you have any troops that can stop the advance of this army." ”

"What if it's five thousand Thundering Edges?" Sean smiled.

This time, Hela can finally understand where Sean's pride and superiority lie. (To be continued......)
