Shadow showed a curious look:
"Then you just said Shenxiao..."
Ma En didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he said:
"The best situation is to let Shen Xiao take action himself, but if Shen Xiao has to take action to deal with these gods, I won't come here to find you. It's not like I don't know how sensitive you are to this matter.
"Not to mention that even if you are really willing to let Shenxiao help me, she may not be able to free up her hands. Now there are ancient creatures under Atlantis that are threatening this planet, and other forces may also take advantage of it. I guess it’s not that simple for you to let Shenxiao return to prison ‘safely’.”
Shadow nodded:
"You're right. There are many forces that are looking at you. Neither the Federation nor Shenxiao is safe. That's why I want to say that it's not that easy for Shenxiao to take action. If you have to ask her to take action, then we can't do it that easily. agree.
"Actually, we are not worried about what you will do, but we are worried that other forces who are afraid of our alliance with Shenxiao will take the opportunity to play tricks on us. We have no choice but to send her to suppress Atlantis. Don't look at us. There are some benefits to be gained from this, but in fact we are just trying to make up for the worst situation.
"Unless there is a similar situation, I think it will be difficult for the Federation to send Shenxiao again, and if those foreign forces really take the opportunity to do something to Shenxiao, I can guarantee you that it will not push reality in the direction you want. Even if it's half a centimeter, they will never let Shenxiao be free again."
His purpose in saying this was to remind Ma En not to think about using other forces to help Shenxiao. Even if those forces did intervene, the situation would never develop in the way Ma En expected.
They are the common enemies of Shenxiao and the Federation.
Ma En nodded and said:
"Of course I understand this. I have already said that I have signed a contract. You really don't have to worry that I want to help Shenxiao escape. This is why I specifically mentioned that it is okay without Shenxiao taking action.
"To be honest, these gods are also enemies to Shenxiao. If I really want to help her, isn't it the best way to deal with these gods? And it won't do you any harm.
"You may even think that what I just said is just an excuse, and this is the real reason why I want to confront Fang Shen. Maybe I am taking revenge on Shen Xiao for their plot against you."
He said this last sentence in a joking tone, but after he said it, neither the shadow nor the federal members who were listening to the entire conversation could easily ignore it.
Even Shadow was a little concerned about Ma En's statement, but he immediately asked this question to his "clone" to think about, and this body directly regarded this as Ma En's smoke bomb.
A smokescreen to hide his true purpose.
"Okay." Shadow, who received the politician's consent, did not continue to ask, "As long as you are confident in providing enough weapons for us to defeat the gods, then the last question...
"Why should we help you?"
Although Marn has just said that the gods are their common problem, and both the Federation and Shadow agree with this view, there is no doubt that the one who is really eager to deal with the gods at this moment is Marn, and whether the Federation itself can actually do this The thing itself is relatively indifferent.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be Ma En who came to visit.
Maan repeated:
"It's a win-win thing."
What he said is true.
And Shadow also acknowledged what he said:
"You're right, but obviously you get more benefits, and you are more urgent than us. We don't have to agree immediately just because this deal is beneficial to us. I think you understand this."
Ma En smiled:
"Of course I understand that a glass of water is priceless to a person who is about to die of thirst, and you will definitely want to sell things for the highest price you can, but unfortunately, I am not a person who is about to die of thirst.
"I brought three different life-extending medicines, all of which come from the ancient Titan civilization, and there are multiples of each, which is enough for you to study slowly. I know how much you like these things.
"This is my price, it won't be more at all. You can refuse, but you only have one chance. If you don't agree, I will leave here and find other partners. If it doesn't work, I can also find other Camarilla members. Help me, I suggest you don't try to take advantage of me.
"I promise you'll only regret it later."
If this sentence were spoken by other people, Shadow would think that he was too arrogant and arrogant, but when Ma En said this, he really felt that it was the truth.
Moreover, Shadow thinks so not because of Ma En's deeds, but because of his most basic understanding of him. Judging from his past contact with Ma En, Ma En can definitely do what he says.
This is a smart man.
But other politicians don't think so. At this moment, they are already asking themselves to put pressure on Ma En. They want to use Ma En's "demand" for the federation to squeeze out every drop of oil and water from Ma En as much as possible, and this is actually the same as It had something to do with the life-extending items that Ma En brought out. They felt that the Camarilla must have mastered some life-extending technologies under other systems, and handing over these was not actually a serious requirement for the Camarilla.
All they want is a little more.
Greed that is never enough.
Shadow sighed in his heart, and then used his clone to explain the current situation to the politicians. At the same time, he turned to look at Ma En and said:
"I believe what you said, so I won't reject you immediately, but I think you should also know that this is not something I can give an immediate answer to. The Federation is a very large organization, and we need enough time to carefully analyze it." Let’s discuss how to deal with it, how about this...
"Give us some time first, let us think and discuss how to answer you, and then contact you after we come to a conclusion. Anyway, you have already signed a contract with us, and you don't have to worry about us betraying you this time. The conversation leaked out.
"You should have time, right?"
Ma En nodded slightly:
"Of course, if you make a decision, you can inform me at any time. As long as it doesn't take too long, we will still wait for you, unless you really waste too much time...
"We may choose other partners at that time."
After saying this, Ma En casually left his contact information, then took a few steps back in front of him and escaped into the shadow dimension, and the shadow watched Ma En leave here.
Then Shadow closed his eyes.
