Listening to Joe's narrative, Leo nodded, showing a look of regret for his experience, but he was calm in his heart, and even disbelief of what Joe claimed to have experienced in the Mitra family.

Since the first conversation with Joe a few days ago, Leo has easily subconsciously thought that he was a trustworthy person through various verbal hints and topic guidance methods. This is why the frank dialogue is now. However, Leo does not think that this psychological hint can change a person's personality and habits in such a short time. In Leo's eyes, Joe is definitely a scheming person. No matter how much a person trusts a person, he will never confess everything to that person without reservation, and will not completely expose his thoughts.

By listening to Joe's heartbeat, Leo easily judged which of Joe's descriptions about the Mitra family were untestable. For example, the Mitra family found Joe's father at the beginning, but after that, the Mitra family should not have found Joe. It was Joe's family that Joe came to find. And Joe didn't feel that before he was called an adventurer, he was just the son of a circus leader, because Leo felt that he was like a spy and a spy on Joe.

In addition, it is probably also related to Joe that the Mitra family can establish trade relations with the indigenous tribes of the jungle. It should be a fact that the Joe and the Mitra family have fallen out now. The reason for the fallen out may not be just the Mitra family who want to monopolize the interests it has, but there must be deeper contradictions, such as the Underworld.

Among all the things Joe said about the Mitra family, he was extremely sure that the Mitra family took away the Keivil note about the underground world. This was not only reflected in his tone, but also in the subtle physiological reactions caused by various emotional changes in his body, such as breathing, heartbeat, etc. In Leo's opinion, his ability to affirm this only shows that he should have seen notes describing the underground world in the Mitra family, and he should also be sure that the interests contained in the underground world are extremely amazing, so he spared no effort to find a new collaborator from various countries.

This also made Leo sure that before joining the Matou Bay pioneer group, Qiao should have tried to join many other countries' pioneer groups, but the result may not be as good as he wished. The recruitment conditions for the Matou Bay pioneer group were very relaxed, not only did it have no ability restrictions, but also its identity restrictions, so Qiao was able to join.

In addition, Joe is very likely to participate in the attack plan of the Paho tribe, the Blood Wolf tribe and other indigenous tribes under his control, and is not just a spy or an indigenous respondent, but may even be one of the plan's makers. As for his purpose, his purpose is easy to explain, that is, when the two sides are in a desperate battle, they can come forward to help the two sides complete the settlement negotiations, and even help the two sides establish a trade relationship, just like helping the Mitra family and the indigenous tribes to engage in trade cooperation.

Because only in this way can Joe show the abilities that others do not have in the eyes of the Governor of Matou Bay and others, and then gain more power, financial and human resources to explore the jungle, helping him find the entrance to the underground world recorded in his notes before the Mitra family.

"What's the purpose of asking me to tell me about these secrets?" Leo asked directly after quickly analyzing Jo's situation.

"I hope we can cooperate." Qiao said in a deep voice.

Although Joe's tone was sincere, Leo did not believe Joe's words very much. However, he did not continue to ask about this question, but turned the topic back to himself and asked: "If I cooperate with you, what do I need to do and what can I get?"

"What to cooperate with?" Leo continued to ask.

"Of course not." Qiao shook his head very decisively and said, "I joined the Pahoe tribe to explore the entrance to the underground world, and the tribes of the New World do not need me to save them. Do you think the kingdoms of Novat have really gained an advantage now? You should know that it has been more than ten years since these kingdoms began to colonize the New World. There are hundreds of thousands of troops sent to the New World. There are also millions of ordinary people transported here for colonization for various reasons. However, the colonies of each kingdom have always been only maintained near the coastline and have not been able to penetrate deep into the jungle of the New World. It is him

Don't you want to? No, they can't build colonies in the deeper jungle." As he said that, he paused, looked at Leo, and saw that Leo did not start to interrupt him, and continued: "The indigenous tribes they have fought against over the years are only the most marginal tribes among the indigenous tribes of the New World. They have not yet officially confronted tribes like the Paho tribe. Once the Paho tribes gather all the surrounding tribes, with the current power of the countries in the New World, there is absolutely no way to resist. All the colonies will either die or become slaves to these indigenous peoples who are looked down upon by them."

"Of course, if we don't use such a good assistant, wouldn't it be a waste?" Qiao explained simply: "After the people of the Matou Bay Development Group meet with their partners, I will throw a bait in time. This bait will lure the Development Group to the place I want them to go. At that time, I need you to assist me and let my bait play the role." As he said, he showed a hint of embarrassment and said: "You also know that my reputation is not very good now. Even if I have provided enough evidence, no one will believe what I say, so I need someone who can testify for the bait I can provide me."

"Of course not." Joe shook his head and looked at Leo, saying, "Although on the surface, Lord Leo is the most common among the consultants of the pioneering group, I know very well that you should hide your true abilities. I don't understand why you want to hide your abilities, but I know that you and my plan do not conflict with you and can cooperate. Moreover, when you mention the indigenous tribes of the New World, there was no such disdain and contempt that others showed when they mentioned the indigenous tribes of the New World. And when the Blood Wolf Tribe attacked the pioneering group, the behaviors you showed also proved that you were unwilling to be hostile to the indigenous tribes of the New World, so I think we should be able to cooperate."

Facing Leo's inquiry, Joe seemed to feel a little difficult to answer and became silent.

Leo did not give Joe time to think about his own problems, and then asked: "Did you join the Pahoe tribe to help the tribes of the New World to resist the colonization and invasion of the Kingdom of Novat?"

"You plan to act with the pioneer team later?" Leo asked.

"What you need to do is to help me explore the jungle. Of course I won't let you do anything dangerous because we have enough people to explore the way." Joe said, raising his head out of the tent.

For him, the parasites in his body are not just symbols of identity, but also contain some magical ability. It is this ability that allows him to travel through the jungle safely and give him the confidence to complete his plan.

After hearing Joe's explanation, Leo suddenly smiled and asked, "How did you know that I have hidden abilities? I think there shouldn't be any abnormalities when talking to you these days, right? So you shouldn't infer my hidden abilities from my words and deeds."

Leo did not doubt Joe's words, because Joe was a person who had truly come into contact with the core forces of the indigenous tribes of the New World. He may be the person in this world who knows the best gap between the New World tribes and the colonial forces of various kingdoms.

As Leo said, he was also implanted with a Pahoe parasite, but this parasite was not something he was forced to implant, but he took the initiative to implant. On that night, he was no longer an adventurer Joe from the Novat continent, but Joe from the Pahoe tribe.

"Why me?" Leo asked with a little confusion: "Logically speaking, I am not the best among the consultants of the Development Group, nor the most famous one. You only have a few days of friendship with me. Why did you ask someone like me to cooperate with? You wouldn't have told me that I like this, so I can just cooperate with me?"

After listening to Leo's analysis, Joe's inner shock was completely filled with his face. He opened his mouth and didn't know how to answer Leo for a moment, because what Leo said was completely correct, and this seemed very incredible to him. You should know that in his opinion, only four people in the whole world knew about this secret, and the other three were all in the Paho clan, but Leo in front of him inferred it with a clue revealed in words. This ability was completely beyond his imagination. He suddenly had an illusion that he felt that all the secrets in this world might not be hidden from Leo.

Leo nodded slightly and asked, "Can you see the bait you took out?"

Now that the deepest secret he hid was revealed by Leo, Joe should have killed Leo immediately so that the secret would never be spread, but at this moment he could not have the idea of ​​attacking Leo. This was not only because he had a strong feeling in his heart, thinking that Leo was a trustworthy person, but more because of the strong fear generated by the parasite in his body, just as if in the perception of the parasite, Leo was a monster that could not be described in words. This emotion was something he had never sensed from the parasite in the past few years.

Joe hurriedly said: "Cooperate to find the entrance to the underground world and explore the underground world."

Seeing that Qiao did not answer, Leo analyzed himself: "When you mentioned my hidden ability just now, you used the word "real ability". If you follow the normal situation, you should not use real ability, but use real knowledge. After all, my identity is a scholar. Mastering a lot of knowledge is the outside world's understanding of my ability. But you used the word "real ability", which means that the ability I hidden in your eyes has nothing to do with the knowledge of the scholar, but another ability." As he said, he looked at Qiao seriously, and suddenly seemed to have thought of something, with a thoughtful look on his face, and said

: "You have come into contact with the Pahoe tribe, and it seems that your relationship with the Pahoe tribe is not as simple as you said. You should have a certain identity and power in the Pahoe tribe. The Pahoe tribe is willing to give you a certain identity and power, probably not just because of your ability or the descendants of Kiville. Since the Pahoe tribe is very good at using bugs, he should also implant parasites on you. Compared to humans, some creatures have much stronger perception of danger, so it is not that you feel that I hide my abilities, but that the parasitic insects in your body feel danger. Am I right?"

After talking about the parasites on his body, Qiao felt a little abnormal in his heart, thinking why he could easily tell the parasite's ability. However, he quickly blamed the abnormality on the shock that Leo revealed the trump card to him, causing his mentality to lose his calmness, and thus said something that should not be said.

"Yes, I do have the Pahoe parasites on my body." Since Leo already knew his situation and seemed to have no intention of promoting it, Joe nodded and admitted: "This parasite has been in my body for several years. It is different from the parasites on the Matou Wanda. It is a parasite cultivated by the Pahoe using special methods. I don't know what its functions are, but I now know that it has two abilities, one is to allow me to sense danger, and the other is to keep some of the most dangerous beasts and poisonous insects in the jungle away from me."

"I don't know." Joe gave a vague answer and quickly explained: "I know the Pahoe tribes will attack Matou Bay, but I don't know why they chose to attack Matou Bay. After all, among the New World colonies of various kingdoms, Matou Bay is not the most threatening, but it is not something that can be taken away casually."

Leo asked again: "Is this operation against Matou Bay a test by the Paho people to resolve the colonial territory in the future?"

Qiao hesitated for a moment, took out a pure gold statue from the package she carried with him and placed it in front of Leo.

From the appearance of this statue, it looks like a serpentine monster, and its style is very consistent with the impression of the indigenous tribes of the New World in the world. However, in Leo's eyes, this serpentine monster is completely different because this monster is a simplified abyss snake.

Why is Leo so sure that it is a big snake in the abyss, not a snake of other monsters in shape? It is because the big snake in the golden statue is cast on the mouth of a carefully crafted pair of front teeth. In Leo's memory, it seems that only the big snake in the abyss who are good at bewitching has such a pair of prominent front teeth.

Although Leo was surprised, his face was always calm and he looked curious, and asked, "This snake-shaped statue is so strange. It has such a pair of front teeth. Have you ever seen such a snake?"
