Chapter 637 Three-line Operation
There was no need to think of ways to get Prince Fradin on board.
When the prince heard that there was finally an opportunity for him to show off his skills, he clamored to come and couldn't be driven away.
With Fradin's support, not only did Pete and his friends have a way to escape from Monger Manor, but the other companions who did not receive the invitation also had a reason to enter the manor.
Under normal circumstances, they could not enter without an invitation;
Fladin's identity was different.
He was the crown prince.
"I have a very good relationship with Grandpa Rune! It's just an invitation, no big deal!"
Fladin promised Lena, Gale, Brandon and Dolan:
"Grandpa Rune said that I can go there anytime I want, and I can bring my friends with me!"
"There is a very, very good monster arena over there, with many monsters locked up in it. I heard that Grandpa Rune hired people, and the mercenaries took a lot of effort to capture and transport them!"
"There will be real battles between gladiators and monsters over there regularly, and the battle scenes are very exciting!"
"Since I want to invite you guys to a banquet, there will definitely be gladiatorial performances!"
Fladin said, gesticulating with his hands and feet.
"It doesn't matter if the manor guards don't know you, they all know me!"
"As long as you follow me, I can take you around and have a look!"
Don't say it.
Prince Fladin's words suddenly broadened Pete's mind.
Because Pete realized a key problem.
In the capital of Starosh, is strength important?
It is important, but not important.
Having strength can get more favorable treatment, but you can't easily use this strength that represents violence.
Strength can affect a person's status and identity, but it is not a decisive factor.
For example, Prince Vladin.
If Rune Monger gave Vladin 1,000 gold coins, no one would think it was a big deal.
The latter's identity is a prince!
The future heir of the kingdom!
Theoretically,
the future of this kingdom belongs to him.
A mere 1,000 gold coins is nothing.
This is the difference brought by different status and position.
If you abandon the moral bottom line and break through the ethical bottom line, Pete realized that in the capital, the means to solve problems are not only strength.
Identity is also a resource that can be used!
He can actually use many crooked means.
For example, simply commit suicide, forge a scene of being assassinated, and then leave some clues to frame others.
They are now heroes of the kingdom.
The hero of the kingdom was assassinated. Is this a big deal?
It is enough to instantly trigger public opinion and force the framed person into a dilemma.
This is entry-level and does not require much technical skills.
There are even more vicious routines.
First commit suicide and return to the Misty Valley. Now that they have the [Shaping Core] to bless the Resurrection Divine Art, they can directly change their bodies!
Reshape a body for themselves in the image of Prince Fradin!
Although this method can only change the appearance, the inner soul cannot be modified together, so it will be detected by some magic, divine arts, and devil's spells.
But it is definitely enough to fool ordinary people!
Several ideas for making trouble flashed through Pete's mind.
Is his identity not appealing enough?
Is it enough to change to Prince Fradin?
If it is still not enough.
Then change to His Majesty Kenreddin!
As long as the conditions are right and at a special time, this trick will be of great use!
Pete, who realized the key, couldn't help but take a deep breath.
When the [Shaping Core] was just "unlocked" in Stone Fort, the effect of this thing was quickly understood by the believers, but they didn't think so much about it;
At most, they thought about slightly modifying their appearance to make themselves more beautiful, better-looking or stronger;
A few people with weird aesthetics would make themselves so that they would scare children to tears when walking on the street, and they would be swaggering in the streets with an "evil god face" that everyone wanted to beat. They were soon banned in public, and "the knowledge-seeking believers whose appearance and body shape exceeded the lower limit of aesthetics were prohibited from showing their image in public."
At that time, Pete also thought that the use of this thing was to make people look better.
Now think about it from another angle, and the situation is different after the mind is opened!
If used properly, this is not a "shaping" core, it is clearly an "impersonation" core!
Pet feels that he seems to have found the key to breaking the complicated situation in the capital!
But he still needs some time and confirmation of some things before he can sort out his plan!
…
That day, in the evening.
Pete, Miranda and Lancelot no longer wore the complicated and gorgeous dresses, but changed into their own simple and plain clothes.
The purpose of their trip was not to attend the banquet, but to politely reject Monger's "goodwill" in person.
The three of them had already colluded with the reasons in advance.
They said that they did not actually make such a great contribution, and those merits that were praised and praised were actually completed by them and their companions. This was an achievement of the group, not their own.
So they could not accept the gold coins, and they were unworthy of it.
It just so happens that this also fits their "personality" of being hesitant and struggling over whether to accept the commission of the Action Corps!
Kill two birds with one stone.
Prince Fradin doesn't have to worry about being discovered when he sneaks out of the palace this time, because he has a legitimate reason:
He is going to Monger Manor!
This is one of the few places near the capital where Fradin can move freely without reporting in advance.
Pete and the other two set off first, pretending to be invited to participate in the banquet, and went straight to Monger Manor located in the new city of the capital;
Prince Fradin left the Blue Rose Inn in advance and met Gale, Brandon and Dolan not far from the palace.
The three of them are the new friends of His Royal Highness the Prince this time.
As for Lena, she stepped into [Stealth], followed behind Prince Fradin, kept a distance, and only cooperated with the prince and his party when entering the manor and mixed in.
She would not show up unless it was absolutely necessary.
A stalker exposed in the open has almost no deterrent power, because everyone will be on guard against her;
When a stalker hides in the shadows, she is the sharpest blade.
Reina's goal is different from Pete and Fradin.
After confirming that Rune Monger is related to the devil and there is a devil hiding in the dark, Reina, under the instigation of Raphael, needs to explore Monger Manor as completely as possible to find clues related to the devil.
Three-line attack, everyone has their own tasks and goals.
This is a battle where swords are invisible, but swords are everywhere.
Under the calm surface.
The undercurrent is surging!
……
It's really horrible, I feel like I'm going to die if I write any more, I'll make up 2 more chapters after waking up!
Thank you for your monthly tickets and recommendation tickets, thank you very much!
