Hella looked curiously at the room Sean had arranged for herself.
Originally, she thought that what was waiting for her would be a cell, but the result was completely different from what she thought.
This is a very clean room. The furnishings in the room are very simple, that is, the common choice of vases, desks and oil paintings, but it can be seen that it has been carefully adjusted and decorated, because the whole room looks unique simplicity and atmosphere. However, what really satisfied Hella was not these, but that she could smell a faint fragrance in this room, which was a natural flower fragrance rather than a flower fragrance artificially reconciled by alchemists.
Haila likes the smell of natural flowers because it reminds her of her mother's tenderness.
A light knock on the door sounded.
Haila looked back at the door, but she didn't speak.
After a while, the door rang again.
"Come in... Please come in." Hella finally reacted this time, but after her habitual opening, she finally remembered her situation at the moment, so her words changed a little.
No one else came in through the door. It was Sean.
With a faint smile on his face, he looked around for a while, then he looked at Haila and said with a smile, "how's it going? Are you satisfied?"
"Very satisfied." Hella nodded her head in a big way. Her eyes were very clear and calm. There was no shame of being a prisoner, or the pride of being treated favorably.
Simple and clean.
"You said that if we can successfully leave nugus manor, then I am qualified to discuss the next cooperation with you, right?" Sean opened a chair, then sat up and looked at Haila standing in the middle of the room. "Now, can we talk about our cooperation?"
Hella frowned slightly.
To tell the truth, Haila's beauty is not outstanding. If her facial features are taken out alone, they will feel good, but when they are organized together, they give people an ordinary feeling and won't make people have a bright surprise. In Sean's words on the earth, it is the type that can't be found in the typical humiliating sea. But even so, Haila still has a temperament that ordinary people don't have. After all, from the moment she was sensible, the skills she learned and mastered were destined to be impossible to be ordinary in her life. Of course, another aspect is also related to her family background.
Therefore, when Haila's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, the breath of her unique superior authority naturally came out.
But it didn't make any difference to Sean. He still looked at Hella with a smile.
A few seconds later, Haila finally realized her gaffe, and then opened a chair and sat opposite Sean. But her behavior is different from that of ordinary people. She has no affectation and pinch. She looks at Sean calmly and generously, and then opens her mouth and says, "what kind of cooperation method?"
"You are not the only survivor of the Garcia family." Sean said with a smile.
Looking at Sean's smile, Haila felt it was like a devil's smile. Smart as she certainly knows that Sean's sentence is actually a temptation and a trap that forces her to give up the initiative in negotiation. If it is in any other case, she will certainly not give up the initiative in negotiation, but this time she can't help it. So after thinking for a few seconds, Hella finally said, "how many survivors are there?"
"When the Garcia family was framed because of a political conspiracy, they didn't fall behind. There were three people who successfully escaped the 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 guess you're not interested in the strong one. "
There was a flash of mockery in Hera's eyes.
The so-called strong man is nothing more than inferior or superior gold. If the Garcia family had a strong man in the holy land, it would not have become a substitute for the dead because of that political conspiracy. Therefore, the simple strong man in the golden realm is really not taken into account by Haila. After all, in her current status - of course, before being captured alive by Sean - let alone the strong man in the golden realm, she is qualified to command the strong man at the holy land level.
"But in fact, if there is no strong man, let alone your two uncles, even your mother can't run away." Sean had long known that Hella would show such an expression, so his tone also contained a trace of contempt. This subtle pleasure of slapping on the face made Sean feel very happy. "At present, I have some clues about the strong man. At that time, he went back to save your two uncles after ensuring that your mother escaped successfully, Of course, I'm not sure what the final result will be. "
"You mean..." a glimmer of excitement flashed in Hella's eyes. "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.
"What do you want me to do?" After getting excited, Haila soon calmed down. Of course, she knew that Sean would not say this for no reason, so she might as well simply listen to what Sean planned to let her do, which was better than bargaining with him without knowing Sean's bottom line.
"I said it was cooperation." Sean smiled.
"The definition of cooperation is very broad." Hella said in a deep voice, "I don't know what kind of cooperation you mean."
"I need subordinates like you."
"Is there any difference between this and subjecting me to you?" Hella let out a sneer.
"Of course." Sean nodded seriously, "surrender to me. That means you can only follow my orders. But what I need is not a puppet who can only listen to orders. What I need is your talent. Your general trend that almost forced me to a dead end, and your layout ability is far beyond ordinary people And I will not simply regard you as a subordinate. I will restore your reputation and even let you re-establish the Garcia family If we have to say the essential meaning, it is probably that we are equal, not subordinate. "
Listening to Sean's words, Haila fell into deep meditation. She boasted that she saw countless people. She only needed to have a simple conversation with each other to see whether the other party's words were sincere. According to her observation, she could see that Sean's words were not so simple to fool her, but very serious to tell her, which surprised Hella. Why is there such a noble in the world?
"Did you and William say the same?"
"In the face of William, I want to be simple and rough." Hearing Hella's question, Sean couldn't help thinking of what he looked like when he first met William. "I said a word to him."
"Simple and rough?" Hella was stunned. "What do you say?"
"I need you."
Hearing Sean's so straightforward words, Haila was stunned for several seconds before she finally couldn't help laughing: "it's really simple and rough enough You use this sentence to make William follow you from now on? "
"Trust takes time to build." Sean shrugged. He didn't think there was anything wrong with this sentence. He remembered that when he was in the game, the president of his guild often said this sentence to people, and then many people were fooled into getting on the thief ship by him. "I handed over the military authority of the whole territory to him and never interfered in any of his actions, because I didn't think it necessary, And I also believe he can do all this well This is the trust William and I have built in each other. "
Hearing Sean's words, Hera's eyes were a little more strange.
In her impression, what she learned from childhood was intrigue, because even relatives in the family were enemies to her. Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to herself, so from the moment she was sensible, she never experienced what family affection is. Even in the face of her father, her only impression is still the score system in the family - she can live only if she gets a higher score, and then stand at the highest point of the whole family and have more authority.
Therefore, trust this kind of thing, but Haila has never owned it.
Or yes, but that's because others trust her, not because she trusts others.
There is an essential gap between the two.
"What do you need me to do?" Hella was silent for a moment before she spoke.
"As I said, what I need is not a puppet who can only obey orders." Sean whispered, "with your intelligence, you will be able to find a suitable position in my team As I said, trust takes time to build, but I don't mind building trust in you from this moment, so if you want to go out for a walk, or go to the conference room to listen to the meeting and see the strategic plan for this time, no one will stop you. "
Hella suddenly fell silent and didn't respond to Sean's words.
However, Sean didn't mind. He stood up politely, then made an aristocratic etiquette to Hella, and said again: "about your identity, Neil will soon send someone to check with you. From this moment on, you can officially abandon nugus and restore Garcia However, because it is a time of war, I hope you can stay in this residence. Even the strong ones in the holy land can't hurt you. "
"I seem to understand why you don't pay attention to the strong in the holy land." Hella burst into laughter as if she had caught a secret.
"The matter is actually a little complicated. I'll explain it to you when I have a chance." Sean knew that Hella must have wanted to make a mistake, but at this time, he wanted to explain, and he didn't know where to start, and it also involved many other interests, so Sean thought it was better not to make it too clear for the time being.
"As a first step in building trust, I think I need to tell you something."
"What's up?"
"Just before you raided nugus manor, I just gave an order to let the mage regiment led by berbis secretly reinforce yadby through the gray shadow forest." Hella said, "moreover, I have made some minor adjustments to the defense forces of berbis and chilav. In fact, it is a trap. If you rashly launch an attack, you will only suffer heavy losses."
"You mean, you let the mage regiment reinforce yadby's leader through the gray shadow forest?"
"Yes." Hella nodded. "So now I want to tell you that your army in yadby will be very dangerous."
"If I want to pass the gray shadow forest, then I don't think I need to worry." Sean smiled. "There is an underground black market of demon hunters in the grey shadow forest. I have been beaten down by me a long time ago. I also robbed things from the chamber of Commerce Alliance, so in fact, I have already prepared an ambush there waiting for you to send someone through the grey shadow forest."
"As far as I know, the situation of the grey shadow forest is somewhat complicated, and the military strength of the army I ordered to be dispatched is not weaker than that of the general army. With the assistance of the mage regiment, I'm afraid the combat effectiveness is not much weaker than that of the fourth Legion." Haila frowned slightly. She felt a little incomprehensible about Sean's pride. "So just from the perspective of combat effectiveness, I don't think you have any troops that can stop the advance of this army."
"What if there were five thousand thunder fronts?" Sean smiled.
This time, Hera could finally understand where Sean's pride and superiority were.
