Hod smiled unnaturally. To be honest, those who are powerful but not professionals, who do not have strong power are still very afraid of Danica, who is good at killing people with dark means. Especially when the professionals who are popular in the mainland are defaulting to being nobles, even as a big businessman with specialties in Melens, he cannot hire intermediate professionals. If it is only a primary level, the protection he can provide is still quite limited.

At this time, Hodd realized for the first time intuitively what it felt like to have powerful power, at least you don’t have to worry about being accidentally killed by someone.

"No, no, no." Hod tried hard and smiled naturally and sat down.

Although they were having breakfast together, Cures and Danica did not like to discuss issues during their meals. They usually exchanged opinions at the dessert time after breakfast. Hod, who was just here, had to follow this habit. The three of them silently finished the simple breakfast.

In yesterday's ceremony, Corres did not completely undestroy Hod. After all, in the plan, Hodd would still show up and continue to preside over the huge industry of the Barov family. If it really turns into a dead person, how can we meet people? So Hodd's undestroy was not thorough, and it can even be said to be relatively mild. At least now, except for the grayish complexion of the skin and the dull gray eyes, there was no big change. If you don't look carefully, you can't tell it.

Hod's physical functions are similar to those of a living person. Although this breakfast tastes nothing, at least he can still digest food like a normal person.

Withdrawing breakfast and changing to several unique snacks and three cups of black tea from the Gad family, Cures first said: "Welcome Mr. Hod Barov to join the Curse Sect. Under the guidance of Lord Vikhamund, we will have a brilliant future." Hod's joining is a very critical step in the construction of the Curse Sect. With such a big merchant and the support of the great nobles, at least in Melens, the Curse Sect's activity space will be much larger.

Curris said the "opening speech" passionately, but Danica was obviously not interested in it. She just nodded and said, "For the sake of powerful strength."

Hod just said simply: "Thank you." He didn't speak anymore. After being transformed into a semi-undead by Curis, Hodd's voice became hoarse, and he himself felt very harsh.

Seeing that both of them were cold, Coris was a little disappointed and talked directly about the important matter: "Now with Mr. Barov's joining, we should not have too many problems in funding operations, right?"

Hod nodded and said, "Yes, I will fund all aspects of the sect's operation." This was said before. The main purpose of Cures to join him in the sect was to find a stable and powerful sponsor for the sect.

Cores nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, then our main task next is to expand the scale of the sect and conduct a large-scale missionary to gain more believers, Danica, how are you doing your mission in the slums?"

Danica said: "You know the previous plan too. I plan to spread the plague in the slums. Under the desperate pressure of death, those poor people will easily accept our teachings and become our congregations, but now, something is wrong."

Curris frowned slightly and said, "What's the problem?"

Danica explained: "You should also hear that the Cardinal of the Holy See of Light is coming to Melens. In terms of providing support for faith, our emerging sect cannot be comparable to the deeply rooted and deeply rooted Vatican of Light. The arrival of that cardinal made the poor more inclined to support their hearts with holy light. On the other hand, the Vatican of Light adopts a firm suppression attitude towards other sects of faith. Preaching in front of the Cardinal is not a clear choice, so I have not yet started a large-scale missionary."

Curris frowned even deeper, and she said with some dissatisfaction: "In other words, you have done nothing during this period?"

Danica glanced at Coris and said, "Things are ready. I'm just waiting for an opportunity. If that opportunity is not available, there is no way. We can only push the plan back and wait for the Cardinal to leave before making plans. If we seize that opportunity, things will be much better."

Curris said, "What opportunity?"

Danica said solemnly: "Get the support of Edward Mike."

"Impossible!" said Corris decisively, "We can't get in touch with that level at all, and it's too risky to deal with that kind of person. You have to be clear that our strength is still very weak now!"

Danica insisted: "But we have a common enemy with Edward - the Holy See of Light, which will be the basis for our cooperation."

"This foundation does not depend on us, but on the other party. When he doesn't need us anymore, or thinks we can sell for a good price, he will give up on us. This is the instinct of a merchant." At the end of the talk, Curse's tone was already very strict. Danica likes to take risks too much. According to her plan, if Edward can be tied to a chariot, then the Curse Sect will have room for activity throughout the southern coastal areas, but this is too dangerous. For people at that level, they have too few cards in their hands. If they come into contact rashly, they will only become chess pieces in the chessboard, and life and death are all for others.

Seeing Cores's rare anger, Danica didn't dare to continue. She said, "Well, if you persist, then the missionary work must be postponed. If the Cardinal of the Holy See is there, our sect must be in a dormant state."

"Then we can only do nothing during this period?" Corris rubbed his eyebrows and said with some annoyance.

"You can't say that," said Danica. "There is no way to go on a large scale, but it can still be developed by some core members."

Curris also knew that the Cardinals of the Holy See would cause them a lot of trouble, so he said, "Okay, please be careful, but I don't want me to succeed next time I ask, no matter what reason you have."

Danica lowered her head and said, "Of course."

After talking about Danica's affairs, Cures turned to Hodder and said, "You should pay more attention to Edward. His performance at the Hodder family dance made the whole of Millens uneasy."

Unexpectedly, Hod didn't care much about it. He smiled and said, "This is not something to bother."

"Hmm? What do you mean?" asked Corris.

Hodder explained: "The main purpose of Edward coming to Melens is to integrate the forces here. As long as we perform enough, Edward will not make things difficult for us, and will even take the initiative to mediate to avoid fierce shopping mall wars."

"This is not easy to do. The autonomous city-states in the southern coastal areas have been a habit of thousands of years. If Edward wants to break this habit and disagree, those of us who take the initiative to cater to may not get benefits."

Hod smiled openly and said, "No matter how you say it, you will pay some price. We can negotiate whether it is market share or donation taxes. Just as Miss Feng Yu said, in the face of powerful power, the glory of gold coins is dim."

"Oh, is it? It would be best if Mr. Barov could think like this." Keris looked at Hod suspiciously. She didn't expect that the old man who had been in the mall for the rest of his life was so wise and turned his mind so quickly. In comparison, she sometimes couldn't let go of her economic interests.
