Chapter 218 – Revealing Ones Hand; Cooperation (2)

So those who could stay up late and work hard had the potential to become sorcerers

The standard was not just down-to-earth, it was basically hellish!

The (Item Analysis Function] had always been regarded as his special talent, and in the workshop, the reason why the apostles could work non stop was largely dependent on the placement mechanism… These two made Roman misunderstand his aptitude.

In Romans eyes, he was probably a genius in the sorcery world.

No wonder this person was not worried that he would not be able to learn sorcery after he was roped in.

It turned out that he had directly determined that he had the aptitude for sorcery through these two misunderstandings.

Zhou Jing seemed to be in a dilemma.

After more than ten seconds, he gritted his teeth and said, “Alright, I agree to your conditions.

If you can let me learn sorcery and have a reliable plan to let me regain my freedom, Ill be under you.”

Only then did Roman smile in satisfaction, “Believe me, when compared to the power of sorcery, everything the royal family promises is worthless… You dont have to worry about me restricting your freedom like the royal family.

Only the ruler wants to control everything.

I dont need you to work for me forever.

Our relationship is more like a partnership.

You provide the craftsmanship of the potion, and Ill give you strength.”

Zhou Jing did not respond.

There was not much trust between the two of them, and their understanding of each other was limited.

He was worried that Roman would fall out with him after he escaped, and Roman was also worried that Bill would sell him out after he laid his cards on the table.

However, if he did not show off his sorcery, it would be difficult to convince Bill with empty words.

There was no reason to tempt him.

After receiving all the information, Bill was already considered to have boarded the pirate ship.

If he backed out, Roman would not allow it.

He just did not say the threat out loud.

Even if it was a cooperation where each party took what they needed, they had to take the risk at the beginning and worry about the what-ifs.

If one party could completely avoid the risk, it would only prove that the other party was most likely at a passive situation in the cooperation… In the current situation, neither of them could obtain a 100% guarantee.

They could only accept that there was a gamble involved.

At this moment, Zhou Jing asked what he had been curious about.

“You said you were a powerful sorcerer, but why did you come to be a court minister and go against the royal family What goal do you have and what are you planning”.

Hearing this, the smile on Romans face disappeared, “Just take it that I cant stand the so-called royal family.”

Seeing that the other party did not want to elaborate, Zhou Jing did not give up easily.

“But I dont know anything about your goal or your faction.

How can I be at ease to rely on you At least tell me which side you represent.”

Roman thought for a moment and said casually, “The Terra Empire has never belonged to the royal family of Tarn, but to all the tribes… I represent the interests of the various tribes and have a legitimate standpoint, so you dont have to worry about the hostility of the royal family.

Outside the capital, its not up to the royal family to decide.”

“He didnt hide his faction, but he didnt mention their goal.

However, theres a high chance that this person wont reveal it so easily…” Zhou Jing thought to himself.

Thus, he changed the topic and asked, “Then how are you going to bring me out of the Golden Castle You wont bring me out of the capital through the main entrance, right”

Roman was amused as he shook his head, “Its too much effort.

Theres no need to make such a big fuss.

I have a few ideas you can consider.”

“… Tell me.”

“Dont think that the Golden Castle is heavily guarded.

In fact, my people are everywhere.

There are also some secret passageways.

Its not difficult to send you out of the Golden Castle.

The difficult thing is not to be discovered.

The most troublesome thing is to avoid the two guards who are following and monitoring you.

Try not to have a head-on conflict with them as much as possible after this.”

Zhou Jing agreed.

It was only because the Brainless Unhappy combination had been monitoring him that it was difficult for him to take any action.

Even now, the two teams of guards were still waiting outside, and he could see them the moment he went out.

“So what do you plan to do”

Hearing this, Roman ticked off with his radish-like fingers as he whispered,

“The first method is to slip away at the wedding banquet.

Two months later, you will be married to the Princess and the King will hold a palace wedding banquet.

At that time, the guards will not monitor you as usual because this will make you look like a prisoner, so you will be given the chance to move freely.

At the wedding banquet, you might seem to receive the most attention, but in fact, everyone will be the least guarded against you.

The King will feel that you were about to marry a member of the royal family, while the others will not think that you would actually want or dare to leave your wedding… It will be the right time to act.

My people could take the opportunity to take you away.”

Zhou Jing did not approve or reject this idea.

“Try not to delay until the wedding banquet… Are there any other ways”

Roman rubbed his chin as he continued to ponder out loud “The second is a stupid method.

Find a chance to escape the surveillance of the guards within two months and let my men take you out of the Golden Castle through the secret passage.

Its just that the chances are not high.

Your two guards are not weak, and they take shifts day and night.

There are usually no gaps.

Even if I get my men to swap with you and disguise as you, with the sense of smell a Mutant Blood Warrior has, they can immediately tell the difference.”

“Then its the same as not saying anything.

Anything else”

“The third method is to take advantage of a period of chaos.

If you can persuade the King to let you travel, I can arrange for people to intercept and take you away.

If you can only stay in the Golden Castle, you can try to set fire to the city or assassinate the King.

In short, cause chaos and find a way to lure the guards away… Of course, they might also be more vigilant to protect you.”

Zhou Jing held his forehead.

After listening to everything, the most reliable thing was actually to escape during his wedding

Did he think this was a drama Runaway groom

“Why dont you bring me along and fight our way out Even if we fail, I can still argue that I was kidnapped.”

“Heh heh.”

Roman did not even want to respond.

He paused and suggested, “There are still two months.

You can consider what method to use.

Ill make some preparations first.”

“Alright, Ill go back and think about it.”

Zhou Jing nodded in response.

Roman nodded and suddenly leaned forward.

He said seriously, “Were on the same side now.

Dont leak the news we talked about tonight.”

“Dont worry, I understand.

Dont doubt my determination to regain my freedom. Zhou Jing also pulled a long face and pretended to be serious.

The two of them discussed the details for a while and completely confirmed their intention to cooperate before ending the meeting

Zhou Jing opened the door and disappeared into the darkness under the escort of the guards.

Roman watched his back disappear before calling over a few trusted aides, closing the door.

“Activate everyone in the Golden Castle.

Make sure everyone is on standby and ready to receive orders.”

His trusted aides nodded in agreement.

Roman knocked on the table and pondered for a while before continuing, “Also, contact the various tribes and inform them that the plan can begin.

The King has already vaguely sensed the threat of the tribes, so hes planning to use the new potion to strengthen the royal authority and nurture a larger army.

Tell the various tribes that it will be increasingly difficult for them to become independent in the future, so they cant wait any longer.

The longer they delay, the greater the difference in strength.

As long as we get the formula for the new blood potion, or a potion master like Bill, well immediately start our plan!”

“Understood!” His trusted aides agreed solemnly.

Roman lowered his voice and said in a deep voice, “Also, tell our spies to pay attention to Master Bills behavior these days.

Report to me all the information about him.”

It was impossible for him to trust Bill completely.

He still had to send someone to monitor him, afraid that Bill would sell him out and cozy up to the royal family once more.

His trusted aides followed his orders and left, leaving Roman alone in the room.

Roman sat behind his desk, rubbing his temples, his eyes shifting.

After preparing for so long, he was finally going to make a move… He did not expect a mere pharmacist to trigger this change.
