Chapter 544 Cannot Gain The Palm
Jonathan didn't feel the slightest bit of heartache when his property was taken away by Anakin. As longas Anakin was alive, the thing naturally couldn't belong to him. If Anakin died, then the parcel wouldnaturally be returned to him.
There was nothing to fuss over.
At that point, Jonathan had a general understanding of the entire vampire clan's situation. He said, “Aslong as Anakin dies, all those dukes, marquises, viscounts, and so on will pledge their loyalty to me.They are fence-sitters without any real loyalty. Can I understand it this way?”
Ocantine nodded, saying, “You are the King, chosen by our revered ancestor. If you were to kill Anakin,there would be no reason for those below you not to obey you.”
Jonathan asked, “So, Prince Ocantine, what do you think I should do to kill Anakin?”
Ocantine was slightly taken aback. Then, he looked at Jonathan and said in a deep voice, “YourMajesty came to me first, so I presume you already have a plan in mind. Whatever your command isnow, I will follow without fail!”
Jonathan realized then that Ocantine was a sly old fox. He said, “I want Larry to kill Anakin. When thetime comes, we will coordinate from the outside!”
Ocantine was taken aback. Jonathan's idea was simply too outrageous. He said, “But Your Majesty,Larry is the trusted aide of Anakin. How could he possibly do that?”
Jonathan spoke indifferently. “Haven't you always been hesitant about whether to support Anakin and
me? Yet, you're faithfully serving me now, isn't it? Larry's cultivation is already on par with yours. Suchan expert has long possessed his own independent personality and will. Under the threat of death,there's nothing he wouldn't do.”
Ocantine was taken aback. He found Jonathan's words so reasonable that he was left speechless!
Aurora and the others stood silently beside Jonathan, watching as he masterfully orchestratedeverything.
Jonathan continued, “I need you to do something for me now, Ocantine.”
“Your Majesty, please speak!” Ocantine immediately said.
Jonathan said, “Find a way to lure Larry over to your side and make sure Anakin doesn't getsuspicious. We'll quietly capture Larry and then force him to work for me.”
Ocantine was taken aback. “Your Majesty, Anakin is naturally suspicious. I really don't know how wecan lure Larry over. Moreover, Anakin is easily suspicious.”
Jonathan frowned, saying, “Prince Ocantine, it seems you still have no intention of helping me. Nosooner had I spoken than you immediately said it was impossible without even considering it. If you'rereally this useless, I don't see why you should continue being a prince.”
Ocantine broke out in a cold sweat instantly, he said, “Your Majesty, I am slow-witted. Please forgiveme!”
Jonathan said, “Is this matter so difficult to handle? What does Anakin want most right now?”
Ocantine was taken aback. A gleam flashed in Walrion's eyes as he said, “What Anakin desires most isto condense the Destino Fruit, so he can break through the final stage of Immortal Stage and reachVoid Divine Stage!”
Jonathan said, “Exactly. Ocantine, can't you deliberately leak a piece of news, pretending to know thelocation of a Blood Lotus Destino Fruit? If so, what would Anakin do?”
Ocantine's eyes lit up as he said, “Anakin himself wouldn't dare to leave Eastsummer easily. He willdefinitely send his capable subordinate, Larry, to investigate this matter.”
Jonathan said, “Handle this matter discreetly. Make Anakin feel like he managed to get hold of thissecret with much difficulty. Make him feel impatient, fearing that you might beat him to it. Make himbelieve that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Once a person gets excited, they tend to overlookmany details.” Pausing for a moment, Jonathan said, “Ocantine, you better understand this clearly.Right now, we are in this together. If Anakin sees through me and I end up dead, I can assure you, youwon't survive either. So, you better take this matter seriously!”
Ocantine's forehead was beaded with fine sweat as he said, “Yes, Your Majesty. I will certainly handlethis matter well.”
Jonathan said, “So now, you need to help us secure a place to stay. It must be kept absolutelyconfidential, do you understand?”
Ocantine nodded slightly.
Subsequently, Ocantine arranged for Jonathan and others to stay in the secret underground room inthe castle. The secret underground room was prepared by Ocantine for unforeseen needs, and itsinterior decoration and layout were quite impressive.
There were beds and household appliances, and the floor was adorned with a carpet woven withgolden threads.
Once the lights were turned on, one would forget that this was a basement!
After settling into the basement, it was already quite late, but no one felt sleepy yet.
Ocantine had arranged for food to be served.
Subsequently, Ocantine made his exit.
Everyone was hungry, so they gathered around the table and began to eat.
Mabel, however, was wandering around with a sandwich in her hand.
Beatrix and Mabel had become very close. Unable to resist, she asked, “Why are you lookingeverywhere?”
With a slight smile, Jonathan said, “This is her occupational habit. She's checking to see if there areany bugs around!”
“That's right. We need to be careful about this!” Beatrix immediately said, “Ocantine is not a good guy.He's definitely up to no good.”
Jonathan said, “Bugs are too primitive. I just checked, and I can confirm that there are no high-techbugs here. However, what's unexpected is that there's a very ingenious bug here!”
“What?” Mabel was taken aback. Despite her extensive experience in that field, she couldn't replaceanything.
Jonathan rose to his feet, making his way to the staircase on the east side. The handrail of thestaircase was crafted from copper tubing.
Jonathan pointed to the copper pipe on the stair railing and said, “This copper pipe is an ancient soundtransmission system. The words we speak can be conveyed through this pipe!”
He paused for a moment, then said, “This device has been around for a long time, so it's notspecifically targeting us. However, the fact that Ocantine deliberately didn't warn us shows that heindeed has ulterior motives!”
“D*mn it!” Beatrix said, seething with anger.
With a faint smile, Jonathan then said, “Ocantine, I know you're listening. Come in!”
Not long after Jonathan finished speaking, Ocantine entered somewhat awkwardly.
“Your Majesty!” Ocantine exclaimed.
Beatrix and the others coldly stared at Ocantine.
Jonathan gave a slight smile and said, “Ocantine, I think it's unwise of you to waste your preciousenergy eavesdropping on our conversation. You should focus on carrying out the task I've assigned toyou.” He paused, then continued, “Your unease stems from doubting whether the drug I injected youwith is really a virus. But let's be honest, even if what I injected was fake, do you think we would giveourselves away in front of you? Are you insulting our intelligence?”
Mabel and the others were indeed curious about what kind of thing Jonathan's virus really wasbecause Mabel had never given Jonathan a virus. Nevertheless, Mabel and her group wouldn't be sofoolish as to ask Jonathan if the virus was fake.
Ocantine's idea was simply too naive!
At that moment, when Jonathan spoke out, it shattered Ocantine's last hope.
Subsequently, Jonathan dismissed Ocantine.
After Ocantine left, Jonathan sneered and said, “That virus is actually just soda water. I was extracautious when I came, so I intentionally brought some with me.”
Mabel and the others were rendered speechless.
Beatrix asked, “Ocantine is also a top-notch expert at Level Eight Immortal Stage. Can soda waterreally fool him?”
With a chuckle, Jonathan said, “If you deceive a normal person, they will go to the hospital for a check-
up. If the hospital says they're fine, they would believe it. However, deceiving Ocantine is different. Hewouldn't believe the results even if he went for a check-up. Firstly, it's because he's afraid of death, andsecondly, his body is different from ordinary people because he's a vampire. If you inject a personwho's afraid of death with some soda water, how could he dare to deny that I didn't inject him with avirus?”
Mabel nodded and said, “There's some truth to that!”
Beatrix said, “I hope you're right.”
Walrion, Aurora, and Yeverie, who were quietly supporting Jonathan from the side, regarded Jonathanwith growing admiration.
After parting ways with Solorel, the wisdom and composure displayed by Jonathan, their leader, movedthem deeply and caused them to defer to him wholeheartedly.
After parting ways with Solorel, Jonathan did not show any signs of fear or retreat. He bravely steppedforward, using his wisdom and strength to overcome numerous challenges!
Mabel said, “However, Jonathan, you promised we'd sneak in quietly, but here we are, brazenly bargingin. Won't this alert Anakin?”
Jonathan smiled and said, “If Anakin always has spies here, no matter how secretly we operate, thismatter will still be leaked. If Anakin does not have spies to keep him updated at all times, that meansthis spy is not by Ocantine's side. In this case, opting for a swift ambush is actually the best strategy.Ocantine can also quickly help us cover-up. Sometimes, the reason for failure in doing something isprecisely because we think too much!”
“Anyway, you can always make everything sound reasonable!” Mabel said helplessly.
Jonathan chuckled lightly.
“But, Your Majesty, what if Anakin really has arranged someone by Ocantine's side? What if Anakinknows about our strategy?” Walrion expressed his concerns.
With a faint smile, Jonathan said, “Well, if that's the case, we can only consider ourselves unlucky. We'llhave no choice but to await our deaths, then. However, I'm willing to take this gamble. I've always hadgood luck, and I believe I will win this time as well.”
Yeverie flashed a charming smile and said, “Your Majesty, you have the best luck in the world.”
She wasn't worried at all. Having journeyed with Jonathan, she had witnessed too many of hisremarkable feats.
Jonathan exuded full confidence.
“This matter is still fraught with too much danger!” Mabel said thoughtfully. Then, she turned toJonathan with dissatisfaction and said, “Aren't you being overly optimistic? We can't always be lucky.What if something goes wrong?”
“But apart from this, there's no better solution,” Jonathan said. “Let's do our best and leave no regrets.Besides, I believe that Anakin is a demon. Now that we, the embodiment of righteousness, havearrived, the demon can't gain the palm!”
