The immortal black snake just wants to live simply

But even if these military police are under Gertrude, they should not be indifferent to hearing such things... After all, Gertrude's rule can be supported precisely because of her strict governance.

But they didn't seem to notice anything wrong with Gertrude's words.

Sitting across from each other in front of Bai Chao, Gertrude was still tapping the table with one finger unhurriedly, and the rhythmic tapping disturbed everyone's perception.

Gertrude would not leave anything to herself.

After all, Veselheim is not like the Dukedom of Koscice. Although the people here respect Gertrude, they will not regard her every move, word and deed as the truth that cannot be defied and is absolutely correct.

She continued:

"Even if you and your brother commit suicide now, this deteriorating trend cannot be stopped... But as long as my experiment is successful, this will not be a problem."

"I'm indeed not a good person, but I'm not as bad as you think. I would sacrifice a neighborhood of infected people for no reason in exchange for the success of my experiment."

"You should have heard from the Black Keys that I have become the guardian of the Black Keys more than ten years ago, and since I have been eyeing the worldly sound so early, why bother to develop the sunset around the Sunset Hall? district?"

"I am giving those infected a chance...a unique opportunity so that they no longer suffer from ori disease and do not have to bear the burden of expensive medicines!"

"And if it succeeds, then even the twin queens will have to recognize my achievements. I will be able to restore the glory of the Strollo family and even be promoted to Duke!"

Gertrude looked excited, but still kept her voice low.

At least it didn't wake up the Black Keys.

Bai Chao already somewhat understood the implication of the other party's words.

And secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was originally an infected person, and he was also a poor man who had suffered from mineral sickness since childhood.

He himself didn't have many years to live.

'If it only costs me one person...'

This idea began to sprout in Bai Chuo's heart, and it continued to grow, and was about to take over his brain.

But the auditory hallucinations in his mind once again protected Bai Huo's thinking and calmed him down.

'Don't believe it, she's lying to you. '

'She can't do such a thing. '

Gertrude looked at the silent Bai Chao and smiled slightly.

His wavering was seen by Black Snake.

Black Snake has recognized the Witch King's emotion contained in Bai Chalo's earthly voice... it is confusion.

And confusion often means nothingness and doubt about oneself.

And if the person who is confused is essentially good, then it is easy to turn confusion into selfless dedication.

Treat other people's meaning as your own.

And the conversation has come to this, and there is no point in continuing the conversation... This kind of behavior is actually more similar to an action to appease the mood of a mouse.

Avoid excessive resistance that may lead to failure of the experiment.

So Gertrude stood up, naturally took off her coat, and put it on Black Key, who knew nothing about the conversation between the two and was still sleeping soundly on the table.

The night in Vesselheim is still a bit cold, and the heating measures in this tavern are obviously not good enough.

"I'm here just to tell you that you at least still have the right to make a last choice."

"That is who sacrifices himself to be the carrier of two earthly sounds, helping another person to escape from the troubles of the earthly sounds."

"Personally, I prefer Black Key to survive, otherwise I wouldn't have to spend so long looking for you, the fish that slipped through the net in the original experiment."

"Although this child has a dirty mouth, is a bit stupid, and is not very lovable...but after all, I have raised him for more than ten years."

Gertrude dispersed the cognitive spell that enveloped the two of them.

"I hope you can think about it carefully. After all, the concert...is only a few days away, right?"

These were the last words Gertrude left for Chalk before she left.

……

After Gertrude and the military police who followed her left, Bai Chao glanced at Black Key, who was still sleeping deeply, then closed his eyes and pressed his temples.

Seeing this, the tavern and the waiters did not dare to close their doors to chase away customers.

After all, the other party seemed to have a strong connection with Gertrude, and looking at his appearance and temperament, he might be a nobleman in civilian clothes.

These are things that must not be offended.

At this time, Bai Chuo, who was upset, did not notice that something was wrong with the boss and the waiter. He was so confused that he just wanted to know more things from the auditory hallucinations in his mind, at least to distinguish the authenticity of Gertrude's words.

At this time, the auditory hallucinations in his mind were his only life-saving straw.

'Old sir, is everything she said true? '

Due to some kind of psychology, Bai Ke didn't call him the Witch King or His Majesty.

And he didn't care about the auditory hallucinations in his mind. After all, he was just a clone of the Witch King... But he still sighed and explained:

'Half truth and half lie, what I am sure of is that she definitely did not want to become the elector. '

'Because once her experiment is successful, the infected person's lifespan will not be affected by the ore disease, but they will just turn into monsters that only obey her orders, a fearful legion that is not afraid of life and death... The Twin Queens will not allow it. This happened. '

'As for her next to you...'

"What happened? Why are everyone gone?"

Black Key, who had just sobered up, looked at the empty tavern with a confused look on his face.

Bai Chao could clearly feel the auditory hallucinations in his mind paused.

'As for your silly, not-so-bright brother...'

'I can't say. '

Chapter 379: The Witch King: We must take a heavy blow against paternalism!

But in fact, when Black Key's alcoholism led to him being ignorant of the outside world, his consciousness did not fall into the numbness he was looking for.

He had a dream in a daze, and he could no longer remember the specific content of the dream... He only knew that the final result was good.

Through his 'superior' speaking skills, he influenced Gertrude and made her give up her plan.

None of himself, Baichao, or the infected people in the Sunset Zone died because of Gertrude's plan.

He promised to keep Gertrude's secret, and Gertrude...or rather, the evil god of Ursus also chose to believe in him.

But that crazy old voice directly tore his dream to pieces.

'Ha ha!I didn’t expect that you idiot wasn’t too stupid... Yes, the so-called Gertrude was indeed devoured by Him before she became your guardian, but so what? '

'Are you going to bet your life on someone else's thoughts? '

'Even if it is simple kindness, not everyone is willing to accept it.Just like children, they also long to escape from the prison of their parents called love. Too heavy love often makes people feel disgusted. '

'And I know Him. He who is sensitive will certainly have extra emotions...even if they are not many compared to the whole, they do exist. '

'But can you accept it? '

'Would you like to be like a pitiful little puppy, wagging your head and begging for His mercy and mercy? '

'Stop dreaming! '

'People always have [-] reasons to easily deny others, especially those close to them. They have a sense of mission to correct them, as if if they don't listen to them, it will definitely end badly, and they will definitely regret it. '

'People always don't respect people who seem to be weak. They always make decisions for them, treating their ideas as naive and immature, as if they can't live without a master. '

'They're not really doing good for others, they're just touching themselves. '

'They gain self-impression, but bring trouble and pain to others. '

'You can have some naive illusions, you can beg her kindness now, you can use your so-called communication to solve it... But you have to remember, you are a fool who only has one mouth! '

'No single emotion can occupy a person's entire life...I think this is the same for beings called gods. '

'And His feelings for you are not enough to support Him in abandoning this plan. '

'You never knew Gertrude. '

'You have never known Him either. '

……

A few days later, an empty space was deliberately left around the Sunset Hall.

Cars parked outside Xizhao Hall in an orderly manner, and the clothes of the people getting off the cars were obviously incompatible with the residents and the overall environment of Xizhao District.

Those clothes were exquisite and not ostentatious, and the various complicated patterns represented that they were nobles from different families.

Some of the old men with gray hair and high spirits also had several shining medals on their chests.

Even the most arrogant and venomous critic in the past had to temporarily curb his harsh nature after noticing his peers.

Because he knew that as long as some of these people spoke or glanced at him with disgust, he might have no choice but to take off the clothes that symbolize his identity and disappear among the common people, becoming a person who only talks about words. clown.

'This is the first time for me to be in the same place with so many infected people. I originally thought that not many people would come to this concert, but even several adults who have lived in the tower for a long time came to participate... I don’t remember that the reputation of this infected musician is that great? '

The acerbic critic muttered to himself, but also decided that once the concert began, he would keep his mouth shut no matter what.

This kind of occasion is not suitable for a person of his status to express his opinions, not to mention any of the nobles with profound knowledge in Leitania who does not have an extraordinary understanding of music?

Leitania is the country that pays the most attention to the extraordinary connection between Originium skills and music. Those tower nobles who are proficient in Originium skills have very high understanding and level of music.

……

Backstage, when he noticed the big names in the audience who often appeared in Leitanian newspapers, Czerny felt a lot of pressure and at the same time he was inevitably a little excited.

For a musician, it is a fascinating feeling to present your work to an audience and gain their approval.

Although the concert had not yet started, Czerny thanked Gertrude for giving him such an opportunity...an opportunity to spread his works.

He knew that he could not invite so many high-minded critics and prominent nobles with just his invitation letter, so the only possibility was that Gertrude also played a role in it.

He looked at Gertrude next to him, moved the corners of his mouth, and finally thanked him sincerely:

"Thank you, Gertrude."

Although the guy next to him was grumpy, neurotic, petty-minded, and forced himself to give the two young men a backdoor... But I had to admit that Gertrude was undoubtedly a good financial backer.

If it weren't for her, Czerny would have been trapped by his status as an infected person, giving up his pursuit of music, and entering a black-hearted workshop...or simply dying on the street.

It was Gertrude who was willing to spend money to save Czerny's life and make Czerny's works known to this country.

Otherwise, who cares about the work of an infected person?

……

"I just don't want to let some trivial matters involve us and waste the precious energy of our great musicians in Viseheim..."

Gertrude, who was looking at the auditorium, or to be precise, the private rooms above, withdrew her gaze.

The remnants of the Witch King paid more attention to this concert than they thought, and more people were present... It seems that the previous work, which was composed of a whole warlock and imitated the style of the Witch King, finally attracted some people. Notice.

Gertrude even saw several electors in it.

"We are just doing what we need. Remember to let those two young people make the final appearance. I promise you, those two young people will not only not bring shame to your concert, but will also add another glory... Perhaps it will be recorded in the history of this country."

Czerny, who was full of energy, did not notice the implication of Gertrude's words.

After all, after so many days of training, the talents displayed by the two young people really made him feel frightened... and even frightened.

Czerny has extraordinary talent in music and has devoted decades of hard work and sweat to it.

Without real ability, no matter how much money Gertrude spent on publicity, it would be impossible for him to become famous throughout Letania.

But even he would feel ashamed when faced with the talents of Black Key and Bai Chuo.

His years of hard work and diligence seemed to have become a joke in front of the talents of the two.

'I'm afraid only His Majesty can compare with this kind of talent in Leitania, right? '

Of course, although Czerny felt a little sad in his heart, he still hoped that the two would achieve higher achievements in music and let their talents be displayed in the eyes of everyone.

And his concert is also a good opportunity for those two people.

Poor Czerny still doesn’t know what will happen at his next concert.
