Gavin III did not speak. He only stared at Lin Fei indifferently.
Xin Zhao stood behind the king, his eyes looking down.
Fiona, on the other hand, was holding the glass of wine and sipping from time to time.
As for Lin Fei, he finished a glass of wine, then picked up the wine pot and continued to pour wine for himself.
Right at this moment,
The system's voice suddenly sounded.
"Ding!"
"An Epic checkpoint has been discovered. The host will stay here for 30 minutes to complete this checkpoint.”
Lin Fei was slightly stunned. Then, the corners of his mouth curled up as he silently muttered "Sign in" in his heart.
"Ding!"
"Checking in."
" Time remaining:29 minutes and 59 seconds…"
Looking at the countdown displayed on the pop-up window on the light screen, Lin Fei gathered his thoughts and closed the pop-up window.
He slowly raised his eyes and looked at Gavin III.
Gavin III looked at him with a smile.
"Old king, why did you call me here?”
Lin Fei broke the silence.
He picked up the wine glass and twirled it slowly between his fingers. His gaze was fixed on the wine in the glass.
" I'm Demacia's enemy now," he said casually." You're sitting and drinking with the enemy. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for this to spread!"”
" You're an enemy in the eyes of outsiders, but in my eyes, you're a friend!”
Friends?
Lin Fei was surprised and did not understand what the old king meant.
"Old king, don't say such words. I don't understand. Let's get straight to the point!”
"Minister Lin…" Gavin III took a sip of the honey wine and slowly said.
"Don't. I'm a sinner now, not your beloved minister!”
Lin Fei interrupted Gavin III.
Gavin III smiled faintly." My young friend Lin, I actually only have one purpose for asking you to come here. I hope that you can work together with us!”
Conspiracy?
Lin Fei was slightly stunned and immediately asked,"What is the old king planning?"”
"Political reform!" Gavin II spat out.”
Political reform?
Although it was only four words, the amount of information was absolutely explosive.
The Demacia Kingdom seemed to be prosperous, but in reality, it was strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
Within the kingdom, the various large families had undercurrents surging. They had one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes.
Outside the kingdom, the vassal forces were full of disloyalty. They were all watching from afar, waiting for a variable!
The Demacia Kingdom might have once been powerful.
However, in a powerful country, it was impossible to be eternal.
There will be a day of prosperity, and there will be a time of decline!
And now, the Demacia Kingdom had gathered all the signs of decline!
After Lin Fei was stunned, he smiled and said,"Old King, why did you come to me for such a big matter?"”
" What do you think of Demacia now?" Gavin III asked instead of answering Lin Fei's question.”
Lin Fei smiled faintly." I don't lie.”
"Little Friend Lin, feel free to speak."
"I only have one comment about Demacia now.”
Gavin III's face was expressionless, while Zhao Xin stood where he was, his body as straight as his three-clawed spear!
As for Fiona, she finally raised her head and glanced at Lin Fei.
Lin Fei's gaze was always on the wine glass in his hand." In the past, Demacia was strong because it used the right system in the right era!”
After a pause, Lin Fei continued,"But the current era is very different from the past. This is a brand new era. If you are stubborn and conservative, you will definitely be abandoned by this era!”
" Therefore, I believe that as long as Demacia and his subjects are united and adapt to the changes of the times, there is still a chance to survive in this era.”
"But now it seems that it is impossible.”
At this point, Lin Fei stopped and raised his head to drink a glass of wine.
The wine that the Emperor drank was indeed different. The taste was incomparably mellow and fragrant. Once he drank it, he couldn't stop!
After drinking the wine, Lin Fei continued,"As for why it's impossible, I believe the old king knows better than me!"”
After saying this, he looked at Gavin III and smiled.
Then, he continued," Actually, Demacia Kingdom's biggest problem is the Anti-Magic Stone. After so many years, they must have offended many mages. The Anti-Magic Stone isn't perfect, and it has its flaws. If these mages discover the secret within, then, when the time comes, all of these mages will escape from the Dark Prison…They have been trapped for so many years, and they will definitely vent their emotions to their heart's content when they come out. Therefore, they are the greatest threat to the kingdom!”
Lin Fei's words were full of pearls, and every question hit the nail on the head.
After hearing this, Gavin III couldn't help but reevaluate this young but meticulous young man in front of him!
Gavin III smiled." My young friend Lin, what you said is true. These are all very difficult questions.”
"Old King, you're sitting on the throne. It shouldn't be difficult for you to achieve these things, right?" Lin Fei asked curiously. Why did you come looking for me…"
Gavin III was the king of Demacia. If he took the lead in the reform, the efficiency would definitely be great.
However, things were not as simple as Lin Fei had imagined.
Whatever Lin Fei could think of, as a superior, Gavin III must have thought of it as well, or even more comprehensively.
However, he was unable to complete his plan.
Because he had his own difficulties!
"Sigh!"
" Yes," Gavin the Third sighed slightly." Although I am the king, I can't make all the decisions in the kingdom."”
"The influence of the major families has long been deeply involved in the government, and the relationships between the major families are complicated and intertwined.”
"It's easier said than done if I want to reform!”
Hearing this, Lin Fei already understood.
Gavin III's reform would definitely shake the status and interests of the major families.
These families would definitely not be happy to touch their own cake.
If these families rebelled, then it would accelerate the decline of the kingdom!
That was why Gavin the Third had found him.
Although his identity was ordinary, his background was clean and he did not have any family background. Therefore, this was also one of the reasons why Gavin III chose him.
The main reason, Lin Fei had also thought of it, was his own ability!
" Young friend Lin, I hope you can join us," Gavin III said." Your ability is what we need. It's what Demacia's new government needs in the future!"”
Lin Fei played with the empty wine glass in his hand." What kind of ability do you mean?”
"The intelligence says that you can control others?" Gavin III looked at Lin Fei and said.”
Lin Fei nodded." Yes, but there are conditions. You can't control it at will!”
Lin Fei stretched out a hand. With a thought, the magic in his body surged. Soon, a dancing flame appeared on his fingertip!
The flame changed its shape between his fingers, as agile as a finger!
"Actually, magic isn't as terrifying as you think!”
Looking at the magic flame in Lin Fei's hand, Gavin III fell into deep thought.
Zhao Xin gripped his spear tightly. If Lin Fei wanted to harm the King, he would use the three-clawed spear to pierce Lin Fei's chest as quickly as possible!
Fiona was also watching the flame, thinking about something.
"Magic isn't completely evil. The good or evil of magic depends on the person who uses it. If the user is good, it will be good. If the user is evil, it will be evil!”
Lin Fei smiled and retracted his hand. The magic flames disappeared.
"Old King, I can't give you an answer yet. How about I consider it?" he said, looking at Gavin III.”
"I'm looking forward to your reply, young friend Lin," said Gavin III with a smile.”
Lin Fei stood up." It's getting late. I should go too!”
Gavin III nodded." Take care, young friend Lin!”
Lin Fei nodded and turned around to walk out of the small pavilion.
Xin Zhao quickly followed behind him, seemingly going to send him off.
In the pavilion.
After Lin Fei disappeared, Fiona looked at Gavin III and said respectfully," Your Majesty, I don't think this man is good!"”
" Why?" Gavin III looked at Fiona and asked.”
"He disrespected you!" Fiona said.”
Gavin the Third smiled." You're wrong. I'm more at ease with him like this!”
Fiona looked at Gavin III in confusion.
" I can tell from his eyes and actions that he has no interest in worldly things like power," said Gavin III with a smile." If it were anyone else, they would definitely flatter me the first time they saw me. But he didn't…"
"With his ability, it would be easy for him to obtain all of this, but he didn't do so. This is also the reason why I want him to join us.”
Fiona remained silent. No one knew what she was thinking about.
