Chapter 971

The eldest princess has a lot of style and affection. From the beginning of the trial, it was also to know Merlin's true strength. After seeing that Merlin was indeed a strong man comparable to all beasts, he also put away his smile and said solemnly: "Leo Count, what do you think of the current situation of the Holy Dragon Empire?"

If someone else asked, Merlin must have said that the Holy Dragon Empire was in decline, and it was about to fall apart. However, if the eldest princess asked, especially if the eldest princess still held the real power, Merlin would not need to go around in circles anymore, and said clearly: " The current situation of the Holy Dragon Empire is not very good, but if the royal family is willing to really contribute, it is not too difficult to set things right and reorganize the empire.

"Oh? Earl Leo has such confidence in the royal family?"

The eldest princess said with a half-smile, she didn't seem surprised.

Merlin also smiled and said, "His Royal Highness seems to have forgotten, where do I come from?"

The eldest princess smiled softly: "I really almost forgot that Earl Leo is the deputy leader of the Phantom Combat Team. I don't know if I'm right?"

As for his identity, Merlin knew that he couldn't hide it from the Eldest Princess, so he readily admitted it, nodded slightly and said, "Yes, thanks to Your Majesty's love, I am now the deputy leader of the Phantom Battle Team!"

"It's rare. Earl Leo is already the deputy leader of the Phantom Fighting Clan at a young age. Next, if possible, he may even hope to compete for the position of minister."

The eldest princess's beautiful eyes stared at Merlin blinking and blinking, and seemed to be full of charm and temptation from any angle. This eldest princess is really an enchanting fairy.

but. This goblin can't touch it. Merlin's heart trembled. He said coldly: "I've never thought about the position of minister. Well, if Her Royal Highness asked me to come today, I won't just talk nonsense, right?"

What I said just now was actually intended to be a test, and Merlin certainly knew it.

"Very good, since Count Leo wants to be straightforward, then I will explain my purpose. I want Count Leo to be mine. Even help me control part of the phantom's power."

"Huh? What does the eldest princess mean? Phantom has always been loyal to the royal family. As the eldest princess of the royal family, the phantom can naturally be used by the eldest princess. Why do I need the help of a mere deputy team leader?"

Merlin knew the seriousness of the matter. It seemed that his performance had accidentally gotten involved in some vortex, and it was the kind of vortex that would shatter his bones if he didn't pay attention.

The eldest princess turned her beautiful eyes, and said in a kind tone: "It's not that Earl Leo doesn't know that although I have commanded a part of the Imperial Guard, the power in my hand is still very weak. Compared with the second prince, it is insignificant." Only the phantom is the most powerful force in the entire royal family, whoever controls the phantom is almost the highest authority in the royal family, and the phantom is only loyal to my father, I believe the earl will not be unclear."

Merlin understood that this vortex was indeed huge, and if he didn't pay attention, his body would be crushed to pieces, because it involved the king of the Holy Dragon Empire and His Royal Highness the second prince who was the most powerful.

However, Phantom, the sharpest sharp knife in the hands of the royal family, is only in the hands of the king. Neither the prosperous second prince nor the powerful eldest princess can touch Phantom.

Therefore, they were all thinking of their own ways, maybe not only the eldest princess, but even the second prince also fell in love with Merlin, but the eldest princess took a step ahead.

Many thoughts flashed through Merlin's mind, this is indeed a huge vortex,

However, this is also an opportunity. Merlin has never been afraid of troubles. Only when he is troubled can he get many benefits.

"Why are you looking for me instead of Hert, or that mysterious minister? Compared to these two, I am so insignificant."

Merlin asked puzzled.

"It's very simple. These two are the father's people. They are only loyal to the father, unless the father is dead... But you are different. You have just emerged, and you can be wooed by us. It's that simple. And A deputy team leader, who is only comparable to a low-level giant beast bloodline, the king father will not care too much, even if he knows, he thinks it is no big deal."

Merlin understood that the eldest princess wanted to be one step ahead of the second prince and control part of the most crucial phantom's power.

"Tell me, what benefits can I get?"

Although it is dangerous to participate in such a thing, Merlin has already participated in it. He will not naively think that the second prince will pretend that nothing happened. Since he met the eldest princess, he has already participated in this huge swirl.

"Benefits? Let me think about it. I don't know if I count? Be my person, and I can let you ask for it."

The eldest princess blinked her eyes, showing a charming and seductive gesture, but Merlin didn't believe that the eldest princess would really use this method.

Looking at the expressionless Merlin, the Eldest Princess muttered: "Okay, it's so boring. I didn't expect that I would also lose my charm. I have some doubts. Are you still a man? I know what you need most now, my Conditions, even if you want to refuse, it will be difficult to open your mouth. If you promise to help me control some of the phantom people, then after the matter is completed, I will allow you to meet the biggest secret of our royal family-the Tianshi holy beast! How about it? This is you In Phantom, you need to accumulate a full five thousand contribution points, and you may not be able to accumulate so many contribution points in your entire life."

"hiss".

Merlin gasped and went to meet the Heavenly Lion Saint Beast. This was indeed a condition that Merlin could not refuse. Looking at the Eldest Princess in front of him, Merlin's eyes revealed a blazing look. She never thought that the Eldest Princess would have such a right.

"Can Her Royal Highness take me to the place where the Heavenly Lions and Sacred Beasts are? You know, that's the core of the royal family. I think that even ordinary princes and princesses are not qualified to enter."

Before being dazed, Merlin said calmly.

"It's natural. There are only a few heavenly lion holy beasts. Excellent princes or princesses can see them, but I naturally have my own way. I will take you there when the time comes. You just need to agree or not. By the way, even if you If you don't agree, I don't think His Royal Highness the Second Prince would naively think that you didn't take refuge in me, would you?"

The eldest princess said slyly.

Merlin closed his eyes slightly, feeling that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. As long as he can see the Heavenly Lion Holy Beast with his own eyes and get close to it, which is a legendary holy beast, it will be worth the price no matter how much he pays.

"Okay, I promise you, but how can I win the support of some people in Phantom for you?"

"It's very simple, just in case, you should be your deputy team leader, develop more subordinates, and be loyal enough to you. As long as you support me, it is equivalent to their loyalty to me. I am You have high hopes for Earl Leo, don't let me down."

"It's that simple?"

Merlin always felt that things would not be so simple. After all, the eldest princess would not trust Merlin for no reason, and she only met Merlin once.

"It's as simple as that. Well, if you don't believe me, next time, I think the time is ripe, and I will take you to meet the Heavenly Lion Saint Beast first, and then you will know that I am not lying to you."

Merlin thought about it, and there was nothing wrong with it, so he nodded in agreement.

"Very good, Earl Leo, I heard that you are a parasite. I am afraid that you need some nutrition pool formulas and materials. Here are several nutrition pool formulas and dozens of materials. I will give them to you. This is our first meeting." , you have to give me some benefits, otherwise, how can you help me hard?"

Merlin looked at the Eldest Princess, as if she was just a little girl who couldn't grow up, but to stand out from the many princes and princesses and hold real power, she must not be a child.

Therefore, Merlin also collected these materials. It just so happened that he also needs some nutrition pool materials now to push himself to the peak state of the fourth form of animalization.

"Princess, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

The eldest princess waved her hand, and Merlin turned and left.

Seeing Merlin's disappearing back, the eldest princess showed a meaningful smile, and murmured in a low voice: "Interesting, I'm afraid this chess piece won't be at my mercy. But when he sees the Heavenly Lion Saint Beast, I can't help him..."

The smile on the corner of the eldest princess's mouth became slightly weird.

*****

Back in the manor, Merlin went to the basement alone after dinner.

Recalling all the things that happened to the royal family today, especially the matter with the eldest princess, Merlin always felt that something was wrong with the other party, maybe the other party's "conspiracy" was a bit too childish, so he completely believed in himself?

If it were Merlin himself, he definitely wouldn't be like this. Then, the other party must have some follow-up means, and they will only use them in the next meeting.

"The next time we meet, maybe she will take me to meet the Heavenly Lion Saint Beast. No matter what means, if I meet the Heavenly Lion Saint Beast, my goal will be achieved!"

Merlin was not afraid of the eldest princess. Even if the other party had that all-beast-like spider, it would be fine for him to escape if he wanted to.

However, the most important thing now is to raise the beast state to the peak of the fourth beast state. Only in this way can Merlin be qualified to negotiate conditions when faced with various complicated situations, whether it is in the void world , or the world of giant beasts, strength is always the only guarantee for one's own safety!

"Crash".

Merlin prepared the nutrition pool from the materials sent by the eldest princess. Looking at the dark green nutrition pool, Merlin also carefully checked each material, and there was no problem. It is impossible for the eldest princess to tamper with it. easy to spot.

"thump".

Since there was nothing wrong with it, Merlin no longer worried, and immediately displayed the animal state, and his huge body almost filled the entire nutrition pool.

"Gulu Gulu".

Bubbles began to appear in the nutrition pool, and the huge energy quickly penetrated into Merlin's body, continuously improving the animalization level of the blood-eyed dragon, and finally moving towards the peak of the fourth form of animalization. (to be continued..)
