Chapter 677: How many God Kings can Zhao Ji defeat? (asking for monthly votes)
After hearing Doris's words, Qiu Tu smiled and lowered his head to eat two bites of food, then said,

"Because you really have no chance of winning. But if you, me, and Her Majesty Zhaoji, the three of us will have a chance of winning."

Hearing Qiu Tu's domineering words, Doris's eyes sparkled. She looked at Qiu Tu with interest, her fingers gently stroked her fair cheeks, crystal earlobes, and finally hooked up a strand of hair.

As she gently wrapped it around him, she asked with interest,
"Oh? The three of us have a chance of winning? Speaker Qiu must be joking."

"You don't think that we, the eighth-rank ones, can deal with the God King?"

She lazily poured cold water on Qiu Tu's head, "If you really think so, then you are too naive."

"Over the years, many eighth-rank gods have been eyeing the position of God King. Many eighth-rank gods are dissatisfied with the four God Kings."

"The results of it?"

"They are just dead trees on the roadside."

Her voice was charming, like she was acting coquettishly, and also like she was seducing. It naturally carried a flavor that tempted people to commit crimes. "Besides, I am the person who is most afraid of death."

"I have too many responsibilities to shoulder, and too many things in my heart that I can't let go of."

"I will not join you in fighting against enemies that are too powerful to resist."

"So, you really guessed wrong, Speaker Qiu."

Hearing Doris's words, Qiu Tu, who was eating with his head down, chuckled. Although he didn't say anything, the contempt in his words was obvious.

Doris's expression froze, and the hands that were tangled in her hair suddenly tensed up.

She remained calm and composed on the surface, but in her heart she was already gnashing with hatred.

How did Qiu Tu manage to be so annoying? Why did he look so pretentious? He deserved a beating!

Although I was deliberately looking for reasons to refute him, I didn't really mean it. But if I think it's wrong, I can refute myself. What's the point of snorting like that!
This character is really annoying!
Aren't all the women around Qiu Tu perverts? How could one of them like this type?

While silently complaining about Qiu Tu in her heart, Doris showed a sweet smile on her face.

She changed her style, wanting to see if the method she used on Qiu Tu was wrong. She asked softly, "Chairman Qiu seems to have a different opinion? Let's talk about it?"

After hearing Doris's words, Qiu Tu did not answer immediately, but lowered his head and continued eating.

There were only two people in the hall. He didn't say anything, and the luxurious small banquet hall suddenly became quiet. Only the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding echoed in the hall.

Doris was waiting patiently at first, but when she saw Qiu Tu eating non-stop, her patience gradually wore out.

Moreover, maybe it was the influence left by Qiu Tu's belittling of her in the room just now, but when she saw Qiu Tu's disrespectful look, an unknown fire suddenly ignited in her heart.

She couldn't help but quietly turn to the table, wanting to speak up to remind Qiu Tu, letting him know that the situation was extremely urgent and this was not the time to delay.

As a result, just when she raised her hand and was about to speak, she suddenly froze.

Not for any other reason, just because she suddenly felt something was wrong.

——Although she usually has an eccentric personality, her emotions are always very stable and never fluctuate so much.

Her natural charm does require her to have extremely rich expressions, which also means that she is not like other eighth-level evil gods who hide their emotions on their faces.

But this doesn't mean that anything can make her upset.

But tonight her mood changed repeatedly because of Qiu Tu. This is obviously a problem!
Thinking of this, her brain raced and she couldn't help but quickly recall every detail of her evening.

Soon, she found some clues.

She looked at Qiu Tu deeply with her amber eyes, and had some guesses in her mind.

"What a clever way of pulling the emotions. I fell into his rhythm step by step without realizing it."

"They first fought me, then pretended to fall step by step to lower my guard."

'Then, at the moment of hitting rock bottom, he started to fight back and created a competitor for me. This aroused my competitive spirit and desire to win.'

'Finally, he began to completely remove his disguise, and then used words and actions to manipulate my emotions, exacerbating his image in my mind.'

'That's great!'

After quickly going over Qiu Tu's methods in her mind, the expression on Doris's face began to become more and more serious.

Because she discovered that the method Qiu Tu used was actually the one she liked to use on men.

In a sense, Qiu Tu defeated her using her own methods.

Although this was partly due to her underestimating the enemy, it still proved that Qiu Tu's methods were ruthless.

This also allowed Doris to make a conclusion in just a few seconds: this man is of the same kind as herself, and she cannot defeat him with her charm.

Therefore, I cannot use this method in front of him. It will only backfire.

At this time, perhaps not knowing whether he had sensed Doris's mood and changes, Qiu Tu finally raised his head from his meal and glanced at Doris.

When he saw Doris's beautiful face, he didn't know when it became cold and vigilant. Qiu Tu smiled.

He picked up the tissue and wiped his mouth gently, then looked up at Doris, "It seems that Your Highness has reacted."

Doris didn't say anything, just looked at Qiu Tu quietly.

Qiu Tu didn't care. He stood up, looked Doris in the eye, and said, "I wonder if this proves my worth?"

After saying this, Qiu Tu did not wait for Doris to answer, but began to bring the topic back to Doris's original question.

His face was full of seriousness. "Your Highness just asked me how I knew you wouldn't betray me. And you were so sure of it."

“It’s actually very simple.”

"Because... I know what you want."

This time, Doris finally stopped using her most powerful weapon - her beauty, and looked at Qiu Tu seriously, asking, "What do I want?"

Qiu Tu pointed to the sky and said, "You want to overthrow this sky. Overthrow the old forces represented by the four great gods."

After hearing Qiu Tu's words, Doris remained silent.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu didn't care, but continued to speak out his own judgment. He said,

"In fact, when I first met you, I didn't understand why you came all the way to greet me. I also didn't understand why you were so enthusiastic towards me."

"And what's strange is that after you greeted me, you didn't continue to show "equal" enthusiasm, but instead tested me everywhere."

Qiu Tu tapped the table twice with his fingers, recalling and judging, "This is obviously very contrary to common sense."

"After all, if you were really eager to recruit talented people, you should have been extremely enthusiastic towards me from the beginning to the end. If you didn't trust me from the beginning, you shouldn't have come all the way to meet me."

"There is only one possible reason why your behavior is so contradictory. That is, you really need me, but you are not sure if I am the person you need."

When Doris heard this, her eyes flickered slightly. It was obvious that Qiu Tu had hit the nail on the head.

Seeing this scene, Qiu Tu became more certain of his guess.

He continued, "After confirming your conflicting feelings, I also wondered what it is about me that you need."

"Is it the resources for the God Trial? Is it the help from the human camp? These are clearly there. You don't need to test them. You can just take action directly."

"So, you must be planning to do something bigger and more dangerous."

Having said this, Qiu Tu paused, then picked up the wine on the table, took a sip, and then continued, "So, I contacted you with doubts and continued to look for clues."

"Finally, all of this was answered when you explained the Four Great Divine Kings to me."

"Your target has actually been the Four Divine Kings since the beginning."

"Although I don't know what grudge you have with them, but if I'm not mistaken, it's probably related to your father's death."

"Although you are trying your best to cover it up, once you have a stance, there will always be some clues in what you say and do."

As he spoke, Qiu Tu looked at Doris deeply. There was no expression on Doris's face, making it impossible to guess what was going on in her mind.

Qiu Tu didn't care when he saw this. He shook his head slightly and continued, "After confirming your position, I will of course have control over everything."

He said, "The reason you agreed to my invitation is obviously because you want to recruit like-minded partners."

"And the series of tests you made after we met were actually testing my abilities."

"As for this dinner tonight." At this point, Qiu Tu pointed to the marble table and said firmly, "It's also a test. It's to test whether my heart is firm or not." Doris heard this and chuckled as if she heard something funny. She said lightly, "It's pure imagination."

Qiu Tu didn't care that Doris denied his guess. He continued,

"As for why I believe that His Highness did not betray me."

"It's simple. You have been investigating for so many years. We humans, or Zhao Ji and I, may be your last chance."

"The Trial of the Gods has been suspended for so many years, but it has suddenly reopened, breaking the monopoly of the God King on the fighting power of the Gods."

"Under such circumstances, it is imperative for the four great gods to unite."

"And once the four great gods join forces, the cooperation they reached in the morning will probably result in a bloodbath in the Crimson Territory in the afternoon."

"The four great gods will not allow a variable like you to appear in their territory."

"Moreover, over the years, the wealth accumulated by the Crimson Territory and the resources left by your father should have been targeted by them a long time ago."

"So, for revenge and to protect yourself, you need to find strong external help."

"And me," Qiu Tu said, pointing at himself, "and Zhao Ji. She is the foreign aid you want the most."

"After all, with our ability to fight above our level, we are the easiest force to gather three god-level fighters."

"So, you can't possibly hand me over, and you can't possibly protect yourself just because you're scared by the four great gods."

"After all, you know better than anyone that you can't protect yourself."

"After the four great gods killed Zhao Ji and me, you will most likely be the next target."

"There is no room for negotiation. They will not let you go."

After listening to Qiu Tu's story, the entire small banquet hall suddenly became silent.

After a moment, Doris' expressionless face suddenly broke into a beautiful smile. She stretched out her two hands, patted them gently, and then praised sincerely, "Seeing is believing. I have heard that Chairman Qiu is resourceful before, and today I really got to experience it."

At this point, Doris even had the leisure to make a joke. She looked at Qiu Tu with her beautiful eyes and said lazily, "I wonder if the offspring of such a smart person will taste extra sweet, and whether they can nourish the brain~~"

Qiu Tu:
Qiu Tu really admires people who can drive on such a bad road.

Perhaps seeing Qiu Tu being humiliated, Doris giggled with satisfaction.

After laughing, she also looked at Qiu Tu and said bluntly, "That's right. Speaker Qiu. You guessed it right."

"I really didn't betray you. I also didn't intend to hand you over to the Four Divine Kings."

At this point, her eyes turned cold. "A few people who have stolen the throne of God have the nerve to ask for this and that."

"Do they really think that Scarlet Collar is a pushover?"

After that, Doris changed the subject and said with a smile, "Of course, compared to the four great kingdoms, the Scarlet Nation is indeed a soft persimmon."

"So, I can't just agree to whatever they say. That would expose me as a show-off."

"Then we will be at their mercy."

Hearing Doris' words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but laugh slowly.

I have to say, it is really comfortable to work with smart people, because what you can think of, the other party has probably also thought of it.

All we have to do is push the plan forward without worrying about someone doing something stupid that would affect everything.

After all, sometimes stupidity is more dangerous than evil.

After several attempts tonight, Qiu Tu and Doris confirmed that the other was the partner they were looking for.

This also brought the two of them closer together.
That's how the meal ended.

The two came to the sky garden on the top floor of the castle.

The night breeze blew Doris's red slit long skirt, making her look like a dark elf at night.

Qiu Tu lit a cigarette, leaned on the railing, and looked into the distance with Doris.

The red light flickered in the night wind, as if representing the hearts of the two people.

After a moment, he exhaled a puff of smoke and spoke first.

He held a cigarette between his hands and squinted his eyes as he said, "We must hold back those great God Kings. Even if it means a head-on confrontation, we have to hold them back."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Doris glanced at him, then sighed faintly, "It can't be delayed."

"The three great God Kings have arrived. I can't resist for long."

Qiu Tu said seriously, "I can help you hold it off. I can relieve your pressure."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Doris couldn't help but glance at Qiu Tu. Although she didn't say anything, her action still exposed her inner thoughts: Just you?

Qiu Tu did not explain, but gave the reason why he had to delay, "Our strength is limited. We want revenge, we want to overthrow the four great gods. It is useless to rely on ourselves."

"Only Zhaoji."

"She is the reincarnation of a god, and she was a very powerful god in her previous life."

"Only by delaying the God King and giving her time to develop can we have a chance of turning the tables."

Perhaps Doris really regarded Qiu Tu as a like-minded fellow traveler, so she spoke in a much more casual manner.

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, she sighed, "It's so difficult to turn the tables."

"And what I have always wanted to do is to win over the eighth-level gods who have the hope of obtaining the "God Status". "

"Then wait until everyone is promoted to heavenly gods, and then defeat the four great gods one by one."

"But now it seems that I underestimated the reaction speed of the four great gods."

"After they discovered that the times were changing, they immediately looked for opportunities to tentatively join forces."

"If I'm not mistaken, they have initially established trust through this tentative collaboration."

"There is a high probability that they will start further cooperation, such as intervening in the "God Trial" together. Supporting their own confidants and monopolizing the "God Status." "

"Once the four great gods join forces, how many gods can Zhao Ji defeat?"

After hearing what Doris said, Qiu Tu really thought about it for a moment. Then he said, "Eight."

"To be honest, if four God Kings can defeat one Zhao Ji, I really can't imagine how strong those four God Kings must be."

"So, I'll double their power. At the same level, I think Zhao Ji can beat eight of them alone."

Doris laughed when she heard Qiu Tu's words.

Her eyes formed two rainbows, and she said with a smile, "You think Zhao Ji is the legendary god."

"One against eight. If I don't brag, I'll die."

Hearing Doris' words, Qiu Tu immediately looked at Doris curiously, and then asked, "Legendary God? Who is that?"

Qiu Tu's question seemed to trigger Doris's memories.

Her amber eyes were filled with memories in the moonlight, and her thoughts drifted a little far away.

After a moment, she said, "That was a peerless strong man before the "God's Disaster". He can be said to be the strongest man in the entire "Boundless Heart Sea" in the past few hundred years, without a doubt."

"Even my father and the other two peak gods are no match for her."

Hearing Doris' words, Qiu Tu tilted his head and looked at her.

Doris continued with a distant gaze, "It is said that her talent is so high that she can fight against many enemies of the same level alone. She can also fight against enemies of higher levels with ease."

"And more importantly, she can easily decipher and reorganize the catastrophic ability."

"She was the first to propose that the 'catastrophic ability' is actually a catastrophic power structure preset by the 'origin of the world'."

“As long as you can figure out the architecture of a ‘catastrophic capability’, you can reproduce this catastrophic capability and use it for your own benefit.”

"This has profoundly influenced the entire 'Boundless Heart Sea'''s research on the power and ability of catastrophes over the past few hundred years."
