In the evening of Sicily, although it is winter, it is still warm as spring, and the Lord's Mansion is the tallest building in the city, as long as it is not raining or windy, Joshua likes to dine on the balcony on the seventh floor, because it has a panoramic view of the city.

As the sun sets over the city bright orange, Joshua looks down on the city as he eats Julie's veal.

This is my city, this is my territory, I am my territory.

Thinking about the tragic situation more than a year ago, and then thinking about his current life, he felt that he was a child of fate, even the gods were taking care of him, and with the rapid growth ability of a second-class knight, he felt that as long as he didn't have ten years, he could become a master-level powerhouse.

Master-level strength, coupled with the identity of the city lord, and he was only in his early thirties at that time, he was strong, coupled with the financial resources of Sicilian City, this Holewen, who can balance him in the future, maybe even the throne can be thought about.

Throne, thinking of this word, his psychology is a little hot.

He picked up a piece of tender veal and was about to put it in his mouth, when suddenly his right hand trembled, at first slightly, and after a few seconds, his hand shook as if he had Parkinson's disease.

The fork in his right hand flew out along with veal, and he suddenly bent over and clutched his chest tightly with both hands.

Julie, who was cutting veal on a plate, finally noticed Joshua's abnormality, she rushed over, hugged Joshua, kept helping him touch his back, and asked urgently, "Master, what's wrong with you?" What happened? ”

Joshua was speechless at this point, and he felt that his whole body was hot, first on the back of his right palm, and then these hot sensations like magma flowed down the blood vessels and all over his body.

The sharp pain prevented him from speaking, and he could only gasp for air.

And Julie next to her was already scared to tears.

The pain came and went quickly, and it didn't take long for him to feel much more relaxed. He stood up and was about to catch his breath when he found himself very weak.

In fact, it can not be expressed without the word weakness, but it is better to say that the body feels very heavy, and it is no longer as light and agile as before. It was as if the power had disappeared from his body.

His heart suddenly struck, and he immediately looked at the back of his right hand, and then was surprised to find that the bronze-colored twin goddess coats of arms that had been engraved there and regarded as a disgrace by him had disappeared, leaving only a piece of reddish skin, which remained there.

Strength...... Taken away?

Joshua froze.

In fact, Uther, the city lord of Winter Wind City, has also tried this kind of pain, but because he is a warrior, he has a high physique, and he has a strong ability to endure pain, so he doesn't feel anything. Joshua was only a spellcaster, and his physical attributes were not much different from ordinary spellcasters, so the pain was very unbearable for him.

What made him even more uncomfortable was the feeling of emptiness that he had lost his strength.

Although the earth-based magic can still be used, there is an obvious sense of condensation, and his strength, coordination, will and other attributes have decreased a lot.

"Beta!" Joshua gritted his teeth with a silver face.

If Beta is here, you can see that Joshua's level has been directly reduced from LV5 to LV2, and there is also a lack of growth of 'inferior knight's full attribute +1, which is no longer a matter of downgrading by three levels, but from a super-genius level spellcaster, directly to a slightly talented spellcaster.

The span of the two evaluations, even if Joshua can grow up in the future, his achievements will not be too high, and the most important thing is that he lacks the task system brought by the inferior knights, and the experience point bonus, and it is almost impossible for him to become an elite in one year, or it will take years, or even ten years or so.

Joshua now hates Beta so much, although he feels that the coat of arms of the goddesses is a shame, but he already thinks that this power belongs to him completely, and no one can take it, and he is even viciously speculating that Beta didn't tell him that this power can be taken away, but now he suddenly took it away, just to beat his disobedient student.

Everyone is a lord, and my territory is a hundred times richer than yours, so why do you think you are nobler than me? I, Joshua, don't accept it!

Human nature has always been very complicated.

Joshua felt that he was the lord of the city, controlled the entire city, and even became an elite professional, so he felt that he should be on an equal footing with his teacher, and even wanted to use his own teacher.

But he forgot that when he was in danger a year ago, who saved him, who gave him strength, and who pushed him to the position of city lord.

At first he was grateful, but as time went on, he swelled.

Beta didn't think about it that much, he knew very well that human nature can never stand the test, and relationships need to be maintained over time and managed carefully. He and Joshua hadn't been in touch for more than a year, and it was no surprise what had become of them.

Since the other party already has a vague feeling that he will become an enemy, then Beta will not be polite, cutting off the other party's second-class knight status is just a warning, if Joshua does not relent, then Beta feels that he can push another new city lord up, anyway, who is the city lord of Sicilya, it doesn't matter to him.

Now that you already have a warehouse, the next step is to choose the goods.

Beta said to Amanda: "To do business, to make a lot of money, intelligence is very important. We have to figure out the recent trends in goods."

As he spoke, he took out a bag of gold coins from the space: "Here are your activity funds, I know that you will be in some danger if you act alone as a young girl, so Shirley will protect you as your bodyguard." ”

Amanda took the gold coin, the bag was heavy, and it was estimated that there would be about a hundred gold coins, and she asked curiously, "What about you?" Didn't you say you were going to take me to make a lot of money? ”

"Of course, I'm going to gather intelligence." Beta smiled, "The way I gather intelligence is a little different from ordinary people. ”

Amanda looked confused.

Beta, who has the skills of internal affairs, can easily get the general information of a city as long as he walks around the city, listens to the conversations of the citizens, and adds what he sees and hears.

In the language of the information age, this is called big data integration, and in the previous words, it is called key information induction.

But either way, it's essentially the same, and Beta, who only has to spend a few days in a city, knows exactly what makes money and what makes a lot of money.

But while he was gathering information, he unexpectedly found an acquaintance.

Freya the Great Swordsman.
