Chapter 2130 Negotiating Conditions
However, just when the Black Tortoise Beast King was about to be completely sealed, something unexpected happened.
Its eyes, which were originally full of violence and ferocity, suddenly locked onto Matthew.
An indescribable complex emotion emanated from the depths of its eyes, as if hiding endless secrets and doubts.
Then, a low and slightly hoarse voice came out of its mouth: "Who...are you to that adult?"
Matthew was stunned by these sudden words.
He looked at the Black Tortoise King and thought to himself that judging from its current appearance, it was obvious that it had noticed some unknown clues.
Almost at the same moment, the huge seal character hanging high above the head of the Black Tortoise Beast King, which was spinning rapidly, suddenly slowed down as if it was hindered by an invisible force.
And it is obvious that this was not the result of Matthew's manipulation, but the result of the Black Tortoise Beast King relying on his own extremely powerful strength to forcibly slow down the process of sealing himself.
Facing the meaningful look in the eyes of the Black Tortoise Beast King, Matthew's heart trembled violently, and a series of thoughts flashed quickly through his mind.
Just a moment later, he immediately understood who the "adult" the other party was talking about.
So he took a deep breath, as if he wanted to take all the air around him into his chest, and then exhaled slowly.
Then, he opened his lips slightly and responded: "He... is my master!"
Just like when he first ascended to Tianling Island, Matthew once again declared that he was the disciple of the old man Ziding.
"It is indeed so... When that lord created me with the fiefdom rune, I actually had a vague premonition that one day I would face such a situation. Unfortunately, time flows slowly and the years pass by so quickly. It is so long ago that I almost completely forget why I exist in this world."
At this point, a hint of gloom involuntarily appeared in the eyes of the Black Tortoise King of Beasts, and its low voice also became a little heavy.
"No wonder... From the first time I saw you, I had an irrepressible feeling of disgust towards you. At that time, I just felt that you were not pleasing to the eye, and I was thinking that as long as I got rid of you quickly, perhaps all the troubles would disappear. Who would have thought that I would find out now that the adult is still in this human world. Then, I guess the purpose of your coming here this time is to seal me up again, and then use the power of the magical seal rune to completely refine me, right?"
Seeing that Matthew remained silent, the Black Tortoise Beast King could not help but shook his head, smiled bitterly and continued talking to himself.
"Yes."
Matthew acknowledged it without hesitation, nodding his head vigorously.
He looked at the Black Tortoise King of Beasts opposite him without any hesitation, as if he wanted to see through the other's thoughts through his deep eyes.
"I have met some humans who have set foot on this land before, and I know a thing or two about your habits. I know that you humans have always been keen on various trading activities and are good at obtaining what you need by exchanging goods or services. In this case, why don't we make a deal today?"
After saying that, its pair of eyes as big as copper bells stared at Matthew, as if trying to catch some clues from his expression and reaction.
However, after hearing these words, Matthew's face, which had been as calm as water, did not show much surprise or unexpected expression.
On the contrary, his eyes, as deep as lake water, narrowed slightly, and his brows wrinkled slightly, as if he was drawn by an invisible thought, and he instantly fell into a brief and deep contemplation.
Time passed by little by little. After a short moment, Matthew, who had been silent and standing still like a sculpture, suddenly seemed to have thought of a countermeasure. He first raised his head slightly, and glanced at the Black Tortoise Beast King in front of him, and then slowly nodded his chin a few times, indicating that he had agreed to start this transaction full of unknown variables with the other party.
"Then let's talk and listen."
Matthew's voice was low and smooth, as if without any ups and downs.
"However, if you want to ask me to leave peacefully, please stop here to avoid wasting each other's words and time."
After saying this, his eyes became sharp again, locking onto the Black Tortoise Beast King in front of him, as if he wanted to see through his appearance to see his true thoughts deep in his heart.
Upon hearing this, the Black Tortoise Beast King hesitated for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
It paused for a moment, then said slowly, "I understand that you will never let me get away so easily, so you can rest assured. However, before that, I have one more thing to ask you. Only after you answer this question truthfully can I propose specific terms of the transaction. What do you think?"
Matthew hesitated for a moment before responding, "As long as it's not something that involves any major secrets, I can tell you the truth if you have any questions."
After saying that, he also stared at the Black Tortoise Beast King with interest.
"You want to use the Land Rune to refine me. Is your real purpose to obtain the mysterious and powerful source of power in my body?"
The Black Tortoise Beast King took a deep breath and then asked slowly.
Just as it spoke these words, the giant seal characters above, which were originally rotating extremely slowly, now stopped rotating completely as if they were cast under a spell.
Matthew nodded seriously and replied, "Yes, this is exactly the task my master assigned to me."
As he spoke, he also specifically mentioned the old man in Ziding.
Seeing this, the Black Tortoise Beast King did not give up easily, and immediately asked: "Then there is one more thing, are you coming here to occupy the entire Mangcang Treasure Pavilion?"
This time, Matthew shook his head without hesitation and answered firmly, "Not really. I have no interest in occupying territory. To be honest, I came here this time because I have other more important things to deal with."
These were simple things, and Matthew hadn't thought of hiding them from the other party.
He is now more and more curious about what kind of transaction conditions the Black Tortoise Beast King will propose.
