"Brother Jiang is very pleased that you have such a high level of thinking."
"Let's put the matter of blood-sucking aside for now."
Jiang Linxian was currently thinking about the devil's heart and sent Andre away.
It was lunch break at this time, and Jiang Linxian came to the restaurant on the first floor to have some lunch.
The other players were already sitting on the seats in the restaurant eating their food.
Jiang Linxian ordered a portion of potatoes and a portion of sweet potatoes, and found a quiet place to sit down.
At this moment, Ji Ningxue saw him, came over with a plate and sat down, and said straight to the point: "There are two days left for the prince's birthday banquet. When the evil energy breaks out, the players here, including the vampires in the castle, will Become a demon."
"If you don't cooperate with me, you will really die here, no joke."
"Can't you do it by yourself?"
Jiang Linxian asked curiously.
"If I could pass the level alone, I wouldn't look for you." Ji Ningxue said helplessly: "Some things require cooperation."
Jiang Linxian collected his thoughts, looked at Ji Ningxue, and began to share his information.
"I found a way to break the curse: destroy the demon's heart."
"The devil's heart should be hidden in the castle, but I don't know where it is."
Ji Ningxue was stunned for a moment, showing a hint of surprise. She lowered her head and whispered, "I know."
"The prince will return to the castle tomorrow night, and the devil's heart is in him."
Putting down the spoon, Ji Ningxue began to share her information.
"So it's best that we attack the prince tomorrow night."
"With the fighting prowess of the two of us, we probably won't even be able to touch a finger of the prince."
Jiang Linxian frowned. If the devil's heart is really in the prince, then this matter will be very difficult.
In other words, this copy is a fatal ending.
Is this really a novice copy?
No way to survive at all?
"Is your information reliable?" Jiang Linxian asked.
The reason why he knew that breaking the curse required destroying the devil's heart was because of the system prompt.
But Ji Ningxue knew that the devil's heart was in the prince.
It seems that this woman has hidden many secrets.
"Of course it's reliable!"
Ji Ningxue answered affirmatively.
"I originally wanted to call the players together to discuss it, but after thinking about it, it was not realistic."
Ji Ningxue showed a look of helplessness: "Those players are all newcomers. Not to mention their combat capabilities, it's a blessing to be able to not be timid and afraid of death."
"But I also thought of a powerful being, the Duchess."
"Huh?" Jiang Linxian seemed to understand what she meant: "The duchess may not necessarily help us."
"After all, asking her to help kill the prince would be considered parricide."
Ji Ningxue shook her head: "Things are not as simple as you think."
"You may not know much about it. In the world of chaos, some planes have invaded an evil creature called a fear demon."
"They spread curses and generate evil energy. They attempt to turn all creatures in the chaotic world into demons."
"Dread demons are good at hiding and are difficult to identify. They can control creatures in the chaotic world, take their bodies for their own use, and then carry out their evil activities."
"I suspect, no, I am convinced, that the Prince has been possessed by the demon of fear."
When Jiang Linxian heard about the fear of the devil, he couldn't help but think of Duke Ernst's diary.
Creatures such as fear demons are also mentioned there.
"The duchess knows about this?" Jiang Linxian asked.
"It's very possible that she knows." Ji Ningxue said: "I think she is also waiting for an opportunity to kill the fear demon with her own hands."
"That night you should also have seen the Duchess fighting the monsters in the black fog alone. Those monsters will never be killed."
"Because as long as the curse of evil exists, these monsters will be endless."
"Only by destroying the devil's heart in the prince can the curse be broken, and then the black fog in the castle will disappear."
Jiang Linxian nodded. The duchess was seriously injured and rested in the bedroom for a day.
"Our best way now is to convince the Duchess to join us in killing the prince and destroying the devil's heart."
"This is a bit difficult." Jiang Linxian shook his head: "There is a huge difference in strength between us and the Duchess, and she won't listen to us at all."
"Indeed." Ji Ningxue agreed. She looked at Jiang Linxian and said with certainty, "But I think you can do it."
Jiang Linxian:? ? ?
Ji Ningxue explained: "You clean the Duchess's room every day, so you should be very familiar with her. I believe she will not reject you."
"And at the last dinner, she actually took the initiative to protect you. I guess your relationship with the Duchess has made great progress."
"That time I noticed that the way the Duchess looked at you seemed to have an extra layer of emotion in it."
After hearing Ji Ningxue's analysis, Jiang Linxian suddenly felt a chill in his back.
This woman didn't know if she was just being confused or if she really analyzed it carefully.
If she really analyzed it carefully, it would be terrible.
Such a thoughtful and observant person is an unknown threat to him.
"You can give it a try." Ji Ningxue said seriously.
"What if after persuasion fails, Madam wants to kill me to silence me?"
"It's impossible to convince her to kill the prince unless she wants to."
Jiang Linxian said speechlessly that the risk factor was too great. He had only brought the Duchess' favor to a good level today and it had not stabilized yet.
If this were to stimulate her to kill the prince again, she would have to swallow herself on the spot.
Moreover, he did not have 100% trust in Ji Ningxue.
"Then we can only use another method." Ji Ningxue frowned and said, "I will set up a sealing barrier tonight. Then we will find a way to lure him into the barrier, and then I will kill him."
"But you have to figure out how to lure him here. I have to be responsible for activating the barrier."
This woman really finds things for herself to do.
"I have to think about it." Jiang Linxian did not agree immediately.
"Time is tight, I hope you can give me an answer tonight." Ji Ningxue said, "We will meet in the lobby at eleven o'clock tonight."
"Why at night?" Jiang Linxian wondered.
"I don't have to work at night, and I can move around freely." Ji Ningxue said, "I can also set up the barrier."
After saying that, she stood up and left with the dinner plate.
The information Jiang Linxian has received so far is almost the same.
However, it is still very difficult to kill the prince.
It seems not easy to convince the Duchess, but this does not affect his favor with the Duchess.
What he wanted to know now was Duke Ernst's attitude.
Since he wrote the diary, he might be able to help.
However, Jiang Linxian is not sure what this old man thinks at the moment, so he has to ask.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Linxian came to the back garden.
Duke Ernst had now returned to the stone chair.
He was not playing chess, but in a daze.
Jiang Linxian walked to him and sat down, ready to chat with him.
The elderly will always need someone to accompany them and talk to them.
"I have finished reading the diary." The old man nodded and said when he saw Fairy Queen Jiang Lin.
"I already know everything."
"Thank you, young man."
The old man looked at Jiang Linxian with appreciative eyes.
Jiang Linxian replied modestly: "This is what I should do. If you still need other help, just tell me. If I can do it, I will definitely help you."
The old man sighed and looked at the crow perched on the big tree in front of him.
"The day after tomorrow is the birthday party. The prince will return tomorrow night. This birthday party will be the downfall of the Dras family."
"Young man, if you really want to help, please help me kill Prince Dras. Only his death can prevent the destruction of the Dras family."
Jiang Linxian's lips trembled and he was about to refuse.
