Chapter 1520 It was all a big gamble
that convinced the orc affairs officer, and everyone was naturally relieved.
Ronald immediately proposed to rush back to the square to let Orel's clone continue to work to avoid another accident at the last moment.
The orc affairs officer naturally had no objection to this.
Just to be on the safe side, unlike when he went out in the morning, this time Ronald was not alone with the orcs. Even Martha followed them back to the square, leaving Costat alone in the library.
A group of four people rushed back to the square.
By the time they arrived at their location, it was noon today.
Although the orcs in [Singing Forest] have different physical characteristics from humans, they have similar living habits. Noon was the time for them to eat and for some of the orcs to rest.
As a result, there were far fewer people in the square than in the morning.
Only the orcs who accepted Walter's order were still working diligently to maintain order at their posts to ensure the smooth progress of the singing competition.
Seeing this, Ronald said to the orc affairs officer beside him:
"Okay, you two go up, as long as you maintain the festive atmosphere."
Orel's clone didn't need to say much, but Walter heard Ronald's eyes were a little surprised at Ronald's arrangement:
"It's just the two of us, why don't you come with us?"
In the view of the orc affairs officer, he was a puppet under Ronald's control, and the other party should follow and monitor him anyway. Otherwise, once you have some twisted thoughts, the situation will soon be out of the other party's control!
Ronald showed a generous smile:
"Don't worry, since we have reached an agreement, I will definitely not be the first to break the agreement."
Then he pointed to the judges' bench on the other side of the square, showing a very trusting look. The appearance of the other party told the orc affairs officer to go back.
"..."
Walter did not continue speaking.
He looked at Ronald and Martha seriously, and without saying a word for the last time, he took Olaier's clone and walked back to the judges' table.
The two went back to talk to the people maintaining order at the scene, and then took their seats smoothly.
Seeing that things had reached this stage, Martha asked Ronald:
"You don't follow, it must be more than just out of trust, right?"
Ronald nodded slightly:
"When you are trusted by others, especially by the manipulator, Under certain circumstances, the choices people make will always have some tendencies. The current situation seems good, but it is still easy to have twists and turns, so this is a small effort." Martha did not express her opinion on this
.
The young priest looked at Ronald. Under his seemingly relaxed and bold expression at first glance, she discovered a hint of determination hidden in him: "
But judging from your expression, it seems you have other ideas?" "
..."
"Do you have to tell me?"
Ronald sighed, and then did not untie the strip of cloth. He just held the Sword of Santa Caterina behind his back and showed it to Martha:
"We are all here. One step."
"If Mr. Walter still wants to resist to the end, then I can only come up with a preliminary plan." The
legacy of the saint who controls the will...
Seeing this familiar weapon, Martha's expression at the moment was almost Like Ronald, he also sighed:
"Anyway, I hope things don't get to that point."
Ronald replied:
"This is the reason why I want to give the other party trust, isn't it?" "
... "
After the conversation ended, Ronald and Martha blended into the crowd.
[Singing Forest] The orcs in the world have all kinds of shapes, but even if the two humans are different, they will not attract special attention.
Waiting quietly around the square was their job in the last half day.
On the other side, Walter also brought Orel's clone to the judges' table.
The orcs who were originally here to maintain order immediately stood up and said:
"Lord Olaier, you are back!"
Olaier's clone did not speak, but Walter on the side took a step forward forcefully, and then said:
"Okay, palace The matter over there has been settled. The work of the judges here is back on track. You can continue with your previous tasks!"
Water is a close confidant of Olaer.
The orcs who stood up did not dare to say anything and retreated without any suspicion.
Then he and Oler's clone took their seats at the judges' table.
Walter finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Orel's clone didn't speak just now, but it was actually a decision he had made early in the morning. After all, this is just a machine that runs according to settings and does not involve the singing competition. It is best for him to deal with it.
From the bottom of his heart, it is absolutely impossible for Walter to completely trust Ronald and the others.
But as a well-informed and powerful person in the city.
In his contact with Ronald and the others, he relied on his keen insight to discover the specialness of these outsiders.
There is something special beyond the worried and deliberative attitude.
——That is a confident attitude.
Walt himself is also in this state. It is usually when facing the enemy, he has an absolute advantage, and the opponent is still struggling in vain, Walt will have this mentality.
What does this awareness indicate?
This shows that Ronald and others have the trump card to control all situations!
The current negotiation with him is just a easing choice made by the other party due to certain restrictions.
Right next to the orc affairs officer.
Orel's clone, who had returned to his position, had quickly assumed his own identity and continued to take on the job of singing judge.
Seeing this scene, the orc affairs officer frowned.
Ronald and his group, who were watching him in the surrounding square, were gambling.
Isn't that the case with Walter?
He also didn't dare to gamble, bet on Oler's life and death, bet on the truth of the whole matter, bet on the safety of this city!
Under the gaze of the two people in the square, while the orcs were waiting restlessly.
Time moves forward slowly.
With the arrival of the afternoon, the square became lively again, and Orel's clone became more immersed in work.
But just when everything went smoothly.
A hurried orc soldier ran over from outside the square and shouted to this side:
"What's going on?"
"Sir Orel and Mr. Walter never went back. The palace asked me to come here to see... …Lord Orel?”
The orc soldier's voice stopped abruptly.
Because at this moment, he saw Orel and Walter, who should have appeared in the palace, and it was the two people he was looking for!
——It’s bad!
Walter's back was instantly wet with cold sweat.
Just as his brain was racing, looking for a way to deal with the current situation.
Mixed in among the questions "Lord Orel didn't return to the palace?" and "But Mr. Walter said the matter is over.", the clone of Orel, who was not smart enough, took the initiative to respond to the orc soldier's question.
"Mr. Ronald didn't let me go back."
"So I obeyed the order and followed Walter back to the square."
