Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty! Chapter 2027 - 797: Elina: You’re Not Even as Good as Qiu Tu (Monthly Ticket Request)_2
Only those close to me know how much wisdom is hidden in this noble gentleman before me, and how he has mastered the goings-on of the "Temple - West Branch" and even the "Temple" like the back of his hand.
At this moment, as Qing Er became aware of this, Elina yawned, then tossed aside the white jade cup in her hand and said, "Ah. Can’t even drink in peace."
"Alright, Qing Er, stop thinking about it, go and fetch me some clothes."
Upon hearing Elina’s words, Qing Er was stunned for a moment and couldn’t help but look at Elina.
Elina’s eyes flashed brightly, "Qiu Tu is here...."
’Qiu Tu is here?’ Qing Er mulled over this sentence in her heart and couldn’t help but feel a bit curious, ’Why is he coming?’
Perhaps because she had just reported Qiu Tu’s situation to Elina, Elina couldn’t help but have more thoughts in her mind.
’Could it be.... he finally realized this mission is a fraud, so he wants to shirk it?’
’But... this matter was decided from above, the "West Branch" has to comply, if not him, there must be others.’
’So, His Majesty won’t agree....’
’Even I can see this, with Qiu Tu’s wit, it’s impossible for him not to see it.’
’So.... what exactly does he want to do?’
With these thoughts, Qing Er brought clothes for Elina and attended to her as she changed....
Soon, the two, followed by maids, arrived at the grand hall of the "Dionysus Nation."
As the controller of the "Dionysus Nation," Elina clearly had mastered every move of the "Dionysus Nation."
So when the two stepped onto the grand hall, a heavenly god happened to come forward to report.
"Your Majesty, Qiu Tu requests an audience."
Upon hearing the heavenly god’s report, Elina waved her hand and said, "Invite him."
"Yes." The heavenly god knelt on one knee, affirmed the command, then turned around to invite Qiu Tu.
Not long after, Qiu Tu, led by the maid, walked in with casual grace.
One must admit, Qiu Tu does have a pleasant appearance.
Though anyone who becomes a deity is never ugly. But... whether one looks good or not also depends on one’s foundation.
A deity can drastically alter their appearance and physique. But such changes require adaptation, and can sometimes lead to inconsistencies between self-perception and reality.
Such inconsistencies may not matter usually, but if they happen during a battle, they can easily lead to critical errors and cause one to perish instantly.
After all, in a duel of masters, the difference often lies in mere details.
Besides these inconsistencies, another factor influencing the appearance of deities is "racial aesthetics."
On the Ancient Continent, there are hundreds or thousands of races, and their aesthetics aren’t completely identical. Some races prefer rotundity, some prefer shortness, some prefer protruding tusks, and others favor vibrant colors.
Becoming a heavenly god gradually brings most races’ aesthetics into alignment, but they still retain some racial characteristics.
For example, the Hanhai God King’s somewhat sleazy thief-like sharp eyes and small goatee are symbols of handsomeness in his race.
Therefore, such standard looks as Qiu Tu’s are rare among male divine kings.
Thinking this, Qing Er couldn’t help but recall the incident where Elina mentioned "Qiu Tu is more uninhibited than her."
’In that case.... did Qiu Tu get touched by Elina?’
Thinking about this, Qing Er’s gaze unconsciously drifted downward towards Qiu Tu.
At this moment, Qiu Tu, perhaps not perceiving Qing Er’s gaze, lifted his head to glance at Qing Er. Not detecting anything unusual, he continued to report to Elina,
"My lady, I’m here to report important intelligence."
Elina had just emerged from the rear hall’s wine pool, clearly still carrying traces of alcohol and a lazy demeanor.
Upon hearing Qiu Tu’s words, she lazily raised her hand and said, "Go on. What is it?"
Qiu Tu, upon hearing this, cupped his hand and replied, "I’ve already investigated what the Immortal Tomb’s Three Giants have been up to recently."
With Qiu Tu’s words, the entire grand hall fell silent.
Elina’s figure paused slightly before she turned her head to look at Qing Er standing beside her, with a faint smile.
At this moment, Qing Er was still immersed in the bombshell news from Qiu Tu. Feeling Elina’s gaze, she came to her senses and, with flushed cheeks, looked at Qiu Tu, saying, "You’ve learned what the Immortal Three Giants have been doing recently?"
"But.... you haven’t left the ’Dionysus Nation’ all this time."
Qing Er’s remark was somewhat unwise. It implied she had been closely following Qiu Tu’s activities.
However, Qiu Tu didn’t mind.
Whether Qing Er pays attention to him is irrelevant, as... even if she doesn’t, Elina can constantly keep an eye on him.
Being inside someone else’s divine country inherently means there are no secrets.
Thus, Qiu Tu’s expression remained unchanged as he looked at Qing Er, smiling and saying, "Qing Er Divine King, intelligence doesn’t always require venturing outside."
"I can send people to collect intelligence outside, or have key witnesses brought back to the ’Dionysus Nation,’ can I not?"
Given the current situation, Qing Er shouldn’t have spoken at all. So upon hearing Qiu Tu’s retort, she fell silent immediately, not daring to speak again.
Seeing this scene, Elina smoothly stepped in.
She alluringly reclined upon her divine seat, her serpent-shaped golden crown entwining her deep purple hair, and her voice languidly opened, "Then, Qiu Tu Divine King, tell us what intelligence you’ve acquired."
As she spoke, she lightly traced her full lips with fingertips painted in wine-red polish, the curve of her lips carrying a hint of intoxication and seduction.
