Extraordinary Rise: Starting Contract with the Silver Dragon Countess

Chapter 120 The Queen's Sister's Weakness

Cohen's voice was deep and powerful:
"To tell you the truth, Her Excellency the Witch has long had the idea of dealing with Ivan Petrov.

However, the situation in the "Farmer City-State" is too complicated, and many people are not willing to change the status quo.

With others holding her back, Lady Witch couldn't spare the time to deal with the matter.

However, Her Excellency has always been very concerned about her fellow Sequencers and has never forgotten you.

I was sent here to rescue my fellow cultivators who were in dire straits.

All of this must be done in secret. I cannot act in the name of Her Majesty the Witch in a high-profile manner, otherwise I will be interfered with by the other oasis forces.

I thought about it again and again before deciding to contact you.

I hope you won't let me down, or let Her Majesty the Witch down."

The "vegetable farmer" slowly let down his guard. He glanced at the man in the long robe beside him, who understood and disappeared again.

Cohen stared at the disappearing figure of the man in the robe, his expression slightly changed.

He felt that when he was talking about Her Majesty the Witch, the other party's expression was obviously not right.

Could it be that……

Cohen frowned slightly, suppressed his doubts, and continued to say to the "vegetable farmer":
"My plan is to use our 'Peasant's Association' to overthrow the brutal rule of Ivan Petrov and the 'Planting Society'.

This way, external forces will have no excuse to interfere in the situation of our "City-State of Cultivators".

Of course, this requires deeper planning and a more complete plan. Today I am only here to convey my goodwill and intention to cooperate.

I know you can't make up your mind, so let me give you three days to report back to Thomas Wade.

If he is interested in this collaboration, I can meet him anytime!

As for messaging, my elven concubine goes out every day to buy snacks, and you can communicate with me through her at any time."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cohen disappeared into the shadows.

The vegetable farmer's face was extremely solemn, and he muttered to himself, "Is the seventh-level transcendent just your concubine? Who are you?"

……

In the center of the mysterious island, at the top of the wizard tower, the Lord of Sequences and the cursed witch Belmodi Wynyard stood in front of a crystal ball, in which pictures were played one after another.

This was the scene where Cohen was talking to the "vegetable farmers" not long ago.

Next to Belmodi stood a tall woman wearing a tight black leather jacket. Her black curly hair cascaded down her shoulders, with a few strands of hair occasionally covering her eyes as deep as cold pools.

The woman's face was delicate and stern. Under her high nose bridge, her scarlet lips were tightly pursed, as if hiding countless secrets.

Her hands were covered in black leather gloves, her fingers were slender and flexible, her legs were wrapped in knee-high black leather boots, and a sharp dagger was hidden on one side, making her look both sexy and dangerous.

If Cohen were here, he would recognize this man.

She is the Listener, one of Belmodi's three trusted followers, Melansa Tinuviel.

Belmodi's sexy and hoarse voice sounded:
"Is it him? I heard that you dealt with the 'Lord of Shadows' in Effiin?"

Roselanda nodded and said:

"Yes, that's the man."

There was a hint of inexplicable meaning in Meilansha's tone:

"It was this person who destroyed all of Black Tomb's power and layout in the northwest region.

If you hadn't secretly supported me at that time, I would not have been able to escape the joint search of the four saints."

There was a hint of surprise in Belmodi's voice:
"It's hard to believe that this person is only sixteen years old and a mere Bronze Rank, yet he can turn the Black Tomb upside down.

I heard that you also assigned the assassins from the Black Tomb to kill him?"

Roselanda said helplessly:

“It was Andrei, a subordinate of the prince of the Eastern Territory Empire. He came to me as an intermediary.

The client seemed to be the second young master of the southern border of Effiin. At that time, this 'Lord of Shadows' had just gained some fame in the extraordinary arena.

I really didn’t expect that he would cause such a big fuss soon after.”

If Cohen were here, he would be absolutely shocked.

Because from Rosalina's self-narration, he could definitely judge the other identity of the Witch's most capable subordinate, the Listener -

The "salesman" of "Black Tomb" in the northwest region of the mainland!
The "Black Tomb" special communication stone in his hand also has the contact information of the "salesman"!

After the Six Saints War, it was this "salesman" who promoted Cohen to the title of gold medal killer!

Belmodi actually placed his most capable subordinate in the core position of the "Black Tomb".

As expected, a woman who can make a name for herself in the "Lost Land" is not to be trifled with.

By this time, Belmoody had almost understood Cohen's plan. She chuckled softly:
"With such a troublemaker arriving in the Cultivator City, Ivan Petrov's life is going to be tough!"

Rosalina looked at Cohen's passionate expression in the crystal ball and said quickly:
"This kid is not wrong. My sister also had plans for the 'Cultivator City-State'.

It's just that due to the interference of the other four forces, they have not taken any action yet.

His false imperial edict actually turned out to be a success."

Belmodi's voice was a little cold:
"Ivan Petrov has indeed gone too far in recent years. If this 'Lord of Shadows' is truly capable, there's nothing wrong with letting him control the 'Federation of Cultivators'."

Roselanda replied:
“Sister, I’m worried that his ambitions go beyond this.

A Bronze-rank person who dares to set a trap for the Devil Duke of Hell, I'm afraid he won't be able to live peacefully as the lord of a 'city-state of order.'

Belmodi shook his head and said:
"If he can really increase the success rate of Sequencers taking potions, then even sharing the Mysterious Continent with him wouldn't be a big deal."

Meilansha's eyes moved slightly and said:
"Do you want me to go to the Cultivator's Federation and keep an eye on them?"

Belmodi pondered for a moment and said:

"Not for now. This 'Shadow Lord' probably has his own plans, so we shouldn't interfere.

Just have your spies there to keep an eye on developments.

Don't stay too long this time when you come back, so as not to arouse the suspicion of "Black Tomb".

Is Black Tomb planning to rebuild its Northwest headquarters?

Meilansha stared at Cohen in the picture and replied casually:
“Yes, they still have some operations in the northwest continent that have not been completed.

This time, the attack of the Pale Wings caught them off guard, and even two legendary phantom corpses perished.

It's all because of this 'Lord of Shadows'.

If I were to pass on the news that he's in the Lost Land back to the Black Tomb, at least ten top assassins would come after him."

Belmodi said:

"Is your operation still about Effiin?
I don't quite understand, a small principality with only two important ports is worth such a huge price for the Black Tomb?"

Meilansha's eyes turned slightly and said:
"It seems to be related to Queen Affiin, Yadel Angryn. The Black Tomb's leaders have been looking for an opportunity to capture that woman.

However, due to her status as the queen of a country and the fact that Aifein is a human state with a thousand-year-old heritage, she could not act openly.

In fact, the previous palace attack and King Effiin's amnesia were all part of the Black Tomb's plan. Belmodi's eyes narrowed as he asked:

“Wasn’t it the Saxons of Ceylon who were instigated by Andrew to attack King Effiin?

Could it be that Andre is also from the Black Tomb? "

Meilansha whispered:
"We can say that the two sides have a cooperative relationship. The Eastern Territory Empire has this need, and Black Tomb is also interested in overthrowing Effiin's regime.

As long as Yadel Angryn lost her status as the queen of the human kingdom and the protection of a country, the Black Tomb could act with impunity.

The two sides hit it off and formulated this action.

It seems to be working well now. The situation in Effiin is already precarious. It is estimated that within two years, there will be a riot sweeping across the country.

At that time, whether it's taking advantage of the opportunity to attack Queen Effiin or seize the interests of the two ports, there will be no obstacles."

Belmodi frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. Looking at Cohen in the crystal ball, he said:

"This 'Lord of Shadows' originally rose to prominence in Effiin. Could he have some connection to the Effiin royal family?
Is he someone secretly trained by the Effiin royal family?"

Rosalina obviously agreed with Belmodi's analysis and said:

"The Black Tomb has also conducted similar analyses. They also secretly contacted the Church of Prophecy to investigate the true identity of the Shadow Lord, but found nothing.

However, this person is only at the bronze level at present. Everything he did in Aifeiyin before was done with the help of external forces. Even if he is really a member of the Aifeiyin royal family, he will not be able to influence the changes in the situation when the great turmoil comes.

I've heard rumors that this time it's not just the Black Tomb, other forces are also coming to Effiin to get a piece of the pie.

In my estimation, unless a kingdom-level power is willing to use the entire nation's strength to protect Aifeiyin, the overthrow of Aifeiyin's regime is inevitable."

Meilansha paused and said:

"Sister, I came back this time to discuss this matter with you.

When the situation in Eifin really gets out of control, if conditions permit, I want to bring Queen Eifin back to our Mysterious Continent!
The addition of a quasi-legendary fighter is very beneficial to the situation in our 'Life Paradise'!"

Belmodi rubbed his eyebrows lightly and said:

“You think too simply. Although I have never met Queen Effiin, judging from her past deeds, she is not the kind of person who would easily give in and live under someone else’s roof.

If the situation really gets out of hand, there's no guarantee that Adele will accept the olive branch we extend.

After all, this is not the human world, and a queen would not come here willingly."

Meilansha seemed very confident and said:
"Sister, that's because you didn't grasp her weakness.

I have been observing and analyzing the situation in Florence for some time.

The key point is Queen Effiin. I have almost figured out Adair's character.

She is indifferent to everything else and has very little feelings for him, but she cares a lot about her idiot husband.

As long as we can get King Effiin beforehand, we won't have to worry about her not surrendering."

Belmodi frowned slightly and said:

"Are you sure? I heard that this king is just the queen's puppet.

Is there such a deep bond between them?"

Meilansha nodded confidently and said:

"That's right. Adele's teacher is King Corleone's mother. They must be childhood sweethearts."

As long as we have Cohen as a card, we can easily control Queen Effiin."

Seeing that Rosalina was so excited, Belmodi didn't want to discourage her enthusiasm.

Moreover, if Adele could really be pulled into the Mysterious Island's camp, it would indeed be a good thing for the development of the "Paradise of Life".

She warned:

"Then you can do whatever you want. If you need anything, just contact the Navigator directly.

He can support you faster by taking the sea route."

Meilansha nodded and said:

"Then shall we ignore this 'Lord of Shadows' for now?"

There was an inexplicable hint of meaning in Belmodi's pupils, and he said:

"Don't move yet. If he really causes chaos in the Cultivator City-State, others will naturally take action.

I want to see who loses control first!"

……

Cohen had no idea that he had been targeted and was being used to threaten his sister, the Queen.

And the person who targeted him was his immediate superior, the "salesman" in the "Black Tomb"!
When he returned to the villa from the intelligence station of the "Farmers' Association", Windsordler and the others had already returned.

Seeing Cohen suddenly appear in front of him, Windsordler, who had just come out of the shower and had not had time to change his clothes, let out a soft cry. Cohen instantly felt as if his eyes were blinded by a large field of flowers and plants.

Windsardler's angry voice came to my ears:

"Why didn't you even say hello before you came in? Is this how you use your stealthy wall-climbing skills?"

Cohen turned around quickly and said helplessly:

"Sister, you are taking a shower in someone else's room and you are so confident, is that really okay?"

Windsardler said angrily:

“You still have the nerve to say that if you hadn’t asked me to find Oliver, who manages the olive-producing area, I would have ended up like this?

I feel like I stink all over now. If I can't wash it off, Miss Book will definitely put the blame on you."

Cohen was very confused and looked at Nephthys. He found that the warlock's hair was also wet. She was wearing a soft bathrobe and her face was red from the steam.

Her bare jade feet, with watery toes that looked like pearls, moved, and her bright, watery eyes were looking mischievously at Cohen, whose head was full of flowers and plants.

Cohen hurriedly looked away and said:

"What happened to you? Why are you all like this?"

Nephthys whispered:
“It’s not as exaggerated as Sister Windsardler said.

When we went there, Oliver was researching the combination of several fertilizers, and the experimental materials he used... well, it's a bit hard to describe."

Cohen understood immediately that what was used were probably the excrement of some living creatures or even humans, which made the Elf Princess, who had always been extremely noble, a little unbearable.

Cohen shook off the flowers and plants on his body. Windsardler had already put on his clothes. With an angry look on his face, he gave Cohen a sharp look.

Cohen coughed lightly and asked Nephthys:
"You're back so early, it looks like the persuasion was successful?"

Nephthys chuckled and replied:

“I don’t know if it’s a success.

Neither of them explicitly expressed support for Mr. Husband, but only said they would remain neutral if necessary.”

After hearing Nephthys' words, Cohen felt relieved and said:
“Since they said so, it’s a success!”
