Chapter 275 Big Shots Two in One

But just as Li Ke was communicating with Minette with each other's body structure, the true upper-class people of Huttonmar gathered together and seemed very anxious.

Although they tried their best to hide this, they still maintained their style and elegance, as well as the demeanor of high-class people.

Of course, if there is someone who is well-informed and knows about the upper structure of Hutton Mar, he may have opened his mouth wide in surprise and cannot say a word.

Because there are many of these people who are mortal enemies in the eyes of the public, enemies above the palace, and even big names who have clearly stated on various occasions that "if he is not me", and their identities are also quite noble.

The worst of the big merchants, nobles and great nobles is that they monopolize a business path or a businessman in an industry.

What brought these big men together was not only because of Alice's prophecy, those thoughtful beliefs, and their kindness were rejected by Li Ke.

"It failed, and Balff was also killed, so it can be said that he suffered heavy losses."

One of the middle-aged men with gentleman Hu stuffed some tobacco leaves on his pipe, but he did not light it, but played with the precious pipe.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, it's just a wild dog climbing up from the slum. In the past, I could indeed give him a few bites of food, but there is no need to put his death on the table. After all, he is just a little man."

Another great nobleman who was tasting wine shook his glass, toasted his companions around him, and then continued to speak.

"In addition, you should be the one who is happy. Once Balf dies, will his property fall into your hands?"

The middle-aged man holding the pipe snorted when he heard this, but he didn't say anything else. He just lit his pipe silently and tasted the best tobacco leaves from the empire.

"Okay, it's just a little profit. The most important thing is that the person rejected us. The focus of our discussion now should be this."

A nobleman in the head knocked on the table, causing the silent people to look at him.

"According to Alice's prophecy, the foreigner named Li Ke will become the controller of a new empire... Although this sounds incredible, you have also experienced the prophecy of the minstrel. They also know that her prophecy has never been wrong, and she has no position or reason to make momentum for the man named Li Ke. So what we are going to discuss now is how to kill him, rather than discussing your interests here."

His words did not make the people below discuss, because no one wants to be the first to make a successful person and damage his own interests.

Even Alice's prophecy hung over their heads like the sword of Damocles.

But I have to talk anyway. A nobleman who had just qualified to join this circle stood up reluctantly at the gesture of a big nobleman.

"Maybe we can raise the price more? After all, Alice's prediction has never been wrong, and it is really a battle with fate..."

But before he could finish his words, he was hit on the face with a pile of paper, and there were also angry words from a great nobleman.

"You idiot, look at the things on it before talking!"

The thin nobleman picked up the stack of paper in panic and looked at his backstage as if he was asking for help.

So he raised his hand in the backstage, and immediately a waiter came over to help the nobles pick up paper. The great nobles, who were in the backstage, also spoke slowly.

"It's a shame, Radell, how can the business be done once? Even if I sell you wine, you have to tell me the price three times and hold seven dance parties, not to mention things related to an empire. Good things always have to go through many hardships."

He knocked on the handrail, then pondered the "prophecy" he had "taken" from Alice. He found something he didn't seem so serious about to say.

"Isn't it just that those workers can rest for two days? As long as they give them a few more copper coins, they are not grateful to go back to their posts on the 'off day'? Continue to work hard for us."

But his words angered another great nobleman.

"Speak lightly! But you have to know that those wild dogs and mud will not be content! This time it is a copper plate, next time it will be two copper plates! Next time it will be three copper plates! And who are sitting there can make money by relying on their own wisdom and hard work?! Let these guys like weeds get things that do not belong to them? Ha, this is an insult to everyone sitting there!"

The great nobleman who monopolized the construction industry of Hetonmaer angrily slapped the table and said something that made the big men present nodded frequently.

"Yes, their work is not worth mentioning, and when they have money they will think about getting things they shouldn't use. Can you imagine the delicious, delicate white bread being put into his bowl by a sloppy little beggar?"

Another noble catered to the words of the great nobles, but only half of them nodded this time.

"I don't agree with this."

Then a businessman selling valuables and luxury goods spoke.

"Isn't this the best education for those untouchables to teach those untouchables what is the gap and how far they are from us? And for them, the best things they can buy after spending their lives saving money is just the stuff of our daily necessities, so I think…"

But his words were also interrupted by another person halfway through.

"Okay, Leicester, this is not critical. After all, they can't afford a button on our clothes even if they work for a hundred years, so don't worry about not being able to sell your ivory and jewelry. In fact, I happen to have a large order to hand you over."

The person who spoke was a financial supporter who had worked with him for a long time. After seeing the reminder in the financial supporter's eyes, Lester rationally closed his mouth.

Then he was grateful for his choice, because he almost became a buffer zone between the two giant crocodiles.

"…Look, Best, even a porter understands the importance of making the pariah look up to us, worship us, treat us as fathers, and be gods. You shouldn't misunderstand it? Or do you have any extraordinary relationship with Queen Scady?"

Redell, who was irritated by the table, looked at the other party sarcastically and did not hide his attitude towards him.

"Don't talk nonsense, Raidel, I have nothing to do with the father and daughter who betrayed the family and betrayed our family."

Best, who once had the same surname as the Queen, decisively drew a clear line between himself and Queen Scady.

"He has his ideas, and we can have our countermeasures, but it's just a trick of the left glove and right hand. After all, he can't know our real cost, right? As long as we raise the price slightly, will we still make the same profit?"

"What an interesting idea, do you know that he plans to lower the price of Hettonmar's food and drop it at this moment! For this reason, he also bought a lot of food and distributed it to the poor!"

"Is there anything wrong with this? Isn't there more workers?"

"Of course you don't think it's bad, because you don't sell food, Best. Do you know how difficult it is to sell food?"

Another great nobleman also spoke.

"I finally caught up with the bad harvest this year and the opportunity for monsters to siege the city. If I don't take this opportunity to make a fortune, it would be a blasphemy to our hard work!"

"But you all know how much profit it is to run an empire! It is not unacceptable to give up profits this year!"

"Then I doubt you have read the words in the prophecy! Best! He even wants those workers to read and let our children go to school with those muddy children! Let those bastards who are careless, do not understand the value of their lives, and do not understand what hard work is to gather together to insult our efforts and struggle for an absurd and unrealistic goal! This is an insult to this Belmar, and an insult to this world and blasphemy!

The roaring nobleman slapped the handrail of the sofa vigorously and stood up suddenly.

"He is going to cut off our roots! Let us be in the same position as the mud and the hybrids! Can you bear this too?!"

Best was silent because Alice's prophecy was absolute, so he did not want to fight fate. It was something that only stupid people would do, but now...

He took the paper from the hands of his nobles, and after turning a few pages gently, he quickly threw the stack of paper into the charcoal basin, making it become ashes in the flames.

"So now, if you agree to enable our plan to encircle the devil who destroys the world with the Huttonmar army and the Imperial army, please raise your hand."

Everyone in the venue raised their hands, and even Best, who had originally planned to abstain, raised his hands with a gloomy face.

"Very good! Alice is also a human being, and her prophecy is not absolute! And we are born to change our destiny! Everyone who is doing it comes here because they have changed their destiny through hard work and struggle, so the so-called prophecy is nothing more than false! Only we can control our destiny! Only us, a group of hard-working people, can change our own destiny!"

His words won everyone's applause, and although Best did not applaud because of face and business reasons, he still said silently in his heart.

"Yes, prophecy is just a prophecy, not fate at all. Even Alice said it!"

Moreover, after seeing so many people have common ideas with them, these big and smart people also have strong confidence in their hearts. The confidence to change Alice's prediction and "destiny" and act quickly.

But does this ‘destiny’ really exist?

Alice, who was playing the piano for the slum children, plucking her piano and sitting under a big tree with falling leaves, knew that the "fate" mentioned by these big figures existed and did not exist. Everything was just a part of the memory of Held's peek at Li Ke, and then the two of them set up a plan.

The "the words and phrases of the future" they received were all written by Held and handed over to Alice. Alice just made the most likely deduction after seeing these words and research reports, combined with the particularity of Li Ke's strength, and it really doesn't have much to do with Li Ke.

As for what happened later, she and Held never intervened again, but Huttonmar's bigwigs did not disappoint her, even exceeding her expectations, forcing her plan to proceed two months in advance: after getting these "prophecies", they gathered together in just two days, and within one day they discussed how to deal with Li Ke.

Alice was also surprised by this, and had to admit that they were all smart people, they all understood their position in this world, and what these "prophecies" mean to them, so they burst out with such powerful action capabilities.

"But is it really useful? Is the pace of history really something that these 'big figures' can stop it?"

I felt extremely acknowledged with these "futures". Alice, who yearned for more knowledge, looked at these ragged but still lively children and felt ridiculous about the choices of those big shots.

Li Ke's power is condensed by the kindness in people's hearts and the yearning for "miracle". This means that as long as there is still someone struggling in hardship and hopes that someone can help him, the power on Li Ke will not disappear, and through Li Ke's will and body, a miracle that no one can believe will be created.

No intelligent life can reject such power, although the host of this power actually uses this holy and noble power to increase his lover. But as long as he sees those tragic things, the power in his body will be truly displayed in the world.

Although... the power on Li Ke is very strange. When verbally testing Li Ke's power samples, each sample will cause abnormal movements on Kelly, Selia, Crente, toxic milk powder, amplification, strengthening, bald head, brick moving, sky, planning and other words, and even directly transform into the purest destructive force, blowing the entire laboratory into powder.

However, this small abnormality did not affect Helder, Alice and others regard this power as a force to save the world, and they also find ways to calculate Li Ke and calculate the host of the "miracle".

But if a miracle can be controlled and guessed, it will not be called a miracle. Held, who doesn't know where Li Ke's power comes from, how could she know the real reason for these abnormal movements? How could everything follow her script as she thought?

Minette, who was captured by Li Ke at the first time, touched her lower abdomen and felt the power in her body. Her legs wrapped around Li Ke even tighter. While letting Kalia bit her ears resentfully, she also used a clearer brain to think about how to tie Li Ke to the chariot of the dark elf.

Perhaps…the Queen can be a good bargaining chip?

She didn't care about the queen, nor did she care about the Presbyterian Church. She only hoped that the Dark Elf race could last forever with Minette, who naturally did not care about the so-called royal bloodline. She wanted this power to be passed on in the Dark Elf group. So while she was entangling Li Ke and expressing her belief in giving birth to a child for Li Ke, she also said her price in Li Ke's ear.

"Since I can't stay in Huttonmar, should I go to our place to avoid the limelight? There are many people there who are willing to give birth to you."

But Li Ke was not fooled by her. Besides, the price offered by Huttonmaer was so high, he didn't agree, let alone the price of only Dark Elf, a beauty of a race.

Minette naturally saw Li Ke's silent rejection, but she didn't care.

"Safety is guaranteed. I can make a contract to entrust my life to your hands and ensure your lover's safety on the Dark Elf territory. Even if they lack a hair, you can tear my heart directly with the contract."

Minette's condition made Li Ke very moved. After all, two fists cannot beat four hands, so the safety of his harem still needs some protection.

"But why would you give me such a good price?"

He asked this question again.

"Because you are a strong man, Lord Li Ke."

Minette smiled and said what Balff said to Li Ke.

“This reason is really annoying.”

While taking a photo of her hips and maximus, Li Ke also expressed his thoughts.

"But you can't change the world, right? That's how this world is."

Minette didn't understand Li Ke's idea, so he said the most pertinent words.

"That's not necessarily."
