"Perhaps we can try to disclose the core technology of the Mechanical Demon God to them and exchange it for this. After all, this technology is, in a sense, a universal substitute for the special mecha there..."
However, as soon as these words came out, Lux immediately shook her head and rejected them:
"impossible."
"Compared to the Mechanical Demon God, the special mecha of the Kingdom of Aldikia can only be used by people of psychic blood, which does affect its popularity."
"But don't forget, La Fulia is the princess of the royal family. For the royal family, universality is not a necessity."
Luo Shu's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he whispered, "Without relying on the Wang family, will more popular military technology affect the Wang family's rule? This is really a realistic answer."
Lux didn't refute what he said, but just sighed softly:
"Based on what La Freya knows about us, if we want her to trade the Soul Summoning Technique, the Mechanical Demon God alone will definitely not be enough. We will definitely need to pay a higher price."
When Shim heard this, he immediately understood and complained with a small face:
"For example, let La Fulia fully participate in the development of Copernicus on behalf of Aldikia?"
"Alas, if I were that evil-minded little witch, I would definitely not let go of this rare opportunity."
It was because Shim guessed that La Fulia would ask for a huge amount of money and wanted to get involved in SDS's core business that he pulled Luo Shu and called Lux to come and find a solution.
However, Shim originally wanted to sacrifice a more universal mechanical demon god to avoid affecting the space base as much as possible, but now it seems that as long as they still need spirit summoning, the space base will inevitably be affected.
Thinking of this, Shim spread his hands and gave up:
"Lacus, only you can make the decision."
Whether it is the Mechanical Demon or the Copernicus Space Base, their share of interests can obviously only be decided by Lacus, the supreme commander.
And now, Lux obviously has her own ideas:
"If La Fulia can resolve the issue of confidentiality, it is not unacceptable."
"As a price, the Spirit Summoning Technique naturally cannot be the most basic version. The foundation of the Spirit Summoning Technique and its extended quantum elf power reactor must also be included in the exchange."
"Of course, this is just the bottom line of the exchange. The details will still need to wait until I meet with La Fulia to discuss."
"I say..." Luo Shu suddenly intervened in the conversation between the two: "Have you ever considered that I have to pay the price?"
Hearing this, Lacus and Shim looked at each other.
Then, Shim leaned forward and asked Luo Shu tentatively:
"Shu Jun, you are not really considering marrying into the family, are you?"
Chapter 160 Results of the Discussion
Luo Shu was directly defeated by this question.
Why is the first thing you think of?
Luo Shu looked at Shim with a helpless look, and said unhappily:
"I don't think I mentioned marrying into the family, did I?"
However, in response to Luo Shu's question, Shim confidently said:
"But the result will be like that!"
As he spoke, Shim looked at Luo Shu with resentful eyes:
"Shu-kun has suddenly become an idiot~"
"Lacus and I have always been trading with SDS chips. Isn't it because we are worried that you will be exposed to La Fulia?"
"You know, that evil-minded woman is the one who came from the house of King Aldikia."
Luo Shu was puzzled when he heard this: "Is there anything special about the Aldikia royal family?"
At this time, Lux said with a slightly embarrassed look:
"In addition to marrying into the ranks of great nobles, the princesses of the Lihawain family have always sought to marry outstanding men. This is their tradition."
The Wang family of the 20th generation is playing the game of marrying a son-in-law? Luo Shu was stunned when he heard this, and then he realized that it was true.
Just as his impression from his previous life had not changed, La Fulia's father was a son-in-law who married into the royal family, and her grandfather was a member of the royal family's side branch.
It can be said that in La Fulia's family, three generations of grandparents and grandchildren have probably all married into the family, which is an old tradition.
Thinking of this, Luo Shu's expression became somewhat subtle:
"Do you think I will be targeted by La Fulia?"
Upon hearing this, Lux only gave a tactful answer:
"If La Folia has enough information..."
"That woman has been investigating the Secret Management Department recently. She was also hinting at something during the last phone call."
Shim spread her hands to show her helplessness. She leaned on the sofa, found a comfortable position, and then asked Luo Shu:
"But then again, Luo Shu, you seem to have some understanding of La Freya... You obviously didn't take her information from me..."
When Shim said this, he looked at Luo Shu's face, and his expression gradually became a little subtle:
"Could it be that La Fulia is also a candidate for the Familia?"
As soon as Shim finished speaking, Lacus smiled calmly:
"There should be no need to guess."
"Since Luo Shu is willing to pay a price to trade with La Fulia, it means that there is a possibility that La Fulia will become one of us."
Only if the candidate family member could become his own, Luo Shu would so easily propose him to be responsible for the bargaining chip.
".... You understand me, Lux."
Luo Shu did not hide his thoughts and said directly:
"I actually planned to exchange the 'class' with La Fulia."
"Rank?" Shim was surprised when he heard this, then hesitantly asked, "Is it the one prepared for Eriri?"
Having said that, Shim glanced at Lux beside him and explained the reason in a low voice.
When Lux knew that Eriri had the blood of natural fairy spirits, and that the spirit summoning technique and class were prepared in order to extract materials for Luo Shu's promotion from Eriri, her expression suddenly became serious:
"Can the extraction technology ensure Eriri's safety?"?
Seeing that Lux was most concerned about the safety of the technology, Luo Shu put away his expression and said seriously:
"It has been confirmed to be safe using existing means."
"That's good."
Lux breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled helplessly:
"But, is La Fulia also a candidate?"
While Lux was sighing, Shim was also muttering beside her: "This is not a good thing."
"Given La Freya's personality, recruiting her is equivalent to tying the Aldikia royal family to the chariot. Will there be a day in the future when the family contract will activate the punishment mechanism?"
Hearing this, Luo Shu's expression was also subtle. Did Shim directly agree that La Fulia would use the interests of her clan to subsidize the Kingdom of Aldikia?
"No, La Fulia wouldn't be that stupid." Lux shook her head and said calmly, "She would only make the interests of the clan and the royal family reach an agreement."
After saying that, Lux added: "Just like what I did."
Luo Shu was at a loss for words when he heard this. Is it really appropriate for you to say this to my face, the clan leader?
"In that case, it's not impossible to consider..."
As Shim said this, he looked up at Luo Shu, blinked and said:
"So, the final result will actually be that Aldikia will marry into Luo Shu's family?"
"Is the princess' title of 'medium' going to be changed to 'son of God'?"
Luo Shu was embarrassed by what he said: "Don't assume that I will take action against La Fulia, okay?"
When Luo Shu said this, Lux and Shim couldn't help laughing.
Although it was just a smile with the corners of his mouth raised, Luo Shu was indeed a little embarrassed.
In this regard, Luo Shu could only make up for it:
"In my impression, there shouldn't be any truly powerful people in the Aldikia royal family, right?"
"Although the Spirit Summoning Technique is a bargaining chip for Eriri to obtain a rank, it is essentially just a seal. The materials required by the first rank holder, various points, and the assistance of the ritual, all of these require the Kingdom of Aldikia to pay."
"I'm using Eriri's rank as bait, getting funding from the Kingdom of Aldikia, and finally getting a promotion material for free."
“Isn’t that great?”
"Yes, Luo Shujun is always the one who benefits the most."
Lux said this in a calm tone, without any emotion in her voice.
Lux not only struck back, but Shim also shot back:
"And I can sleep with a beautiful silver-haired princess for free. It's really a good deal. No, maybe I have to take into account that little idiot Eriri as well."
I guess Sayuri should be added... Luo Shu also added a little in his mind, but soon he realized that he was the one being attacked, and immediately said with a stern face:
"My chips are here, you can do whatever you want."
As he spoke, Luo Shu leaned back on the sofa without saying a word.
Seeing Luo Shu like this, Lux just smiled and said:
"Shim, is it almost morning in America?"
"Almost." Shim smiled and said, "Do you need me to arrange a meeting with La Freya for you?"
Lux shook her head and said softly:
"She and I may not both be available on that day, so let's make an appointment on the 20th, at Mr. Robert's funeral."
Shim smiled playfully: "Then there will probably be some fun to watch."
Hearing this, Luo Shu's eyes flickered, but he said nothing.
The princess of the Kingdom of Aldikia attended the funeral of an English diplomat. This standard was a bit excessive.
But, this is beneficial to the Sawamura family...so Luo Shu said nothing and just acquiesced to this result.
However, thinking of Enigma who was bound to come and Sayuri Sawamura who wanted to take revenge on her... Luo Shu also began to have doubts in his heart.
I hope there won't be any big trouble at the funeral...
Chapter 161 Aldikia
Kingdom of Ardikeia.
Inside the palace of the royal capital Veltres.
In the afternoon.
The palace's flower garden.
A white-haired woman in a black knight uniform quickly entered the flower garden, stopped in front of the Nordic-style pavilion, lowered her head and said in a deep voice:
"Your Highness La Fulia, 10 minutes ago, your private number received a call from America."
"America?"
In the pavilion, the woman with long hair as white as snow opened her clear blue eyes and said with an interested smile:
"That's interesting. I wonder which acquaintance of mine in America this is?"
As she spoke, La Fulia put down her teacup, tilted her head, and stretched out her hand towards the female knight.
"Justina, please bring me my phone."
"Let me see which friend is contacting me."
"Yes." The female knight named Justina stepped forward and handed La Freya the black mobile phone that had been prepared long ago. The casing was not feminine but rather looked very thick.
