Chapter 940: A Deal
"On that note, I think the adult has already made a choice." The big businessman Yudi smiled, and he had a signature move. When he is in a good mood, he must gently stroke his mustache. Yudi rubbed his beard and said, "Earlier, I heard that this lord was choking enough on the academy's son, but after Gole went and made a good show, this lord did not obviously embarrass Goler, and let him go with his son. I guess this lord doesn't want to offend you, Lord Willt, who is behind Goler. ”
Ban Jin snorted and said, "That's the best, no matter what we do, it's all for the sake of the light." How can this territory be reassured by handing over this territory to Oss a little ghost, or let Lord Swift preside over it, it is well deserved. ”
Swift laughed dryly: "But this lord is not simple, you see that after he returned to the city, there was no movement, and no one knew what his idea was when he drilled into the city lord's mansion." No, this adult didn't say anything, but it was even more shocking. Those old fellows can't guess the intentions of adults, and they don't dare to drill into me. ”
"Master Willt, what do you say, what is this Ellen-sama's idea?" Yudi asked.
Swift turned around twice and said, "Actually, it's not difficult to guess that this adult is trying to get the most out of his interests." You think, he's making a show to scare the other guys. The two of you are the only ones who dare to stand up for me, and that's a big disappointment to me. First of all, in terms of momentum, we are already too weak to be weaker. At that time, the showdown will be negotiated, and the lord will naturally have the advantage. ”
Yudi suddenly looked worried.
Swift waved his hand: "It's okay, as long as I sit in the position of lord." If you take it out now, you can always earn it back later. People, take a long-term view. Now that you've been here, it's all you need to say. Let's all go back, it's not a good thing to let the City Lord's Mansion know that you've stayed too long. We have to take care of the proportions in this, and it is in our best interest. ”
Ban Jin and the two glanced at each other, and they both got up to take their leave. As they had gone, the smile on Swift's face slowly faded, and he walked over to the fireplace, stretched out his hand to bake the fire, and said to himself, "Now is not the time to be happy, and if that lord summons us to-day, there will be room for manoeuvre." If there is no movement today, then something is really going to happen. Well, it would be nice if he would come back in the spring...... Time, time, ......"
There was an undercurrent surging in Fenrir City, but the City Lord's Mansion was unexpectedly quiet. But the more Alan didn't say anything, every time he passed, some people fidgeted as if they were burning their butts. Alan himself sat comfortably, holding the briefing handed by Cayli in his hand, while the member of the Darkblade who turned into a maid next to him listened to the explanation.
From the briefing in his hand and Cayri's explanation, the crux of the current problems in Fenrir City is directed at one person, Willt. The old man was Duruff's uncle and a powerful figure in Fenrir. However, he did not get along well with Truluff, and on several occasions Duruff threatened to kill him. Therefore, before Truluff's death, this man kept a very low profile. And even after Duruff's death, when the city of Fenrir was in chaos, this person did not stand up to turn the tide, but chose to watch from the sidelines. Therefore, the last time Alan attacked Fenrir City, and even finally entered the city, he learned that there was such a person as Willt.
It wasn't until Fenrir settled down and Oss replaced Duruff as Lord of Light that Swift reappeared. This man is also a clever man, and he is not in a hurry to compete with Os, a junior when he returns to power, but generously loses part of his family property to fund the municipal renovation of Fenrir City, thus gaining great fame. Then he began to approach the high-ranking officials at all levels in Fenrir City, and those who could be bought were bought, and those who could not be bought were squeezed out by various means, and then filled in with their own people.
Instead of rushing into the sheepfold to eat the little fat sheep of Os, Swift first surrounded the sheepfold and killed the sheepdogs. In the end, he planned to stop the fence so that he could pounce into the sheepfold and kill all sides.
Among the lists of those who were ostracized by Swift was Jeff, the captain of the city's defenses, who was loyal to the city and Oss that day. Now these people, either helpless or forced, have faded out of the power circle of Fenrir City. Now Oss is like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, if Alan comes later, this little guy is afraid of being swallowed up by others, and there will be no bones left.
Putting down the briefing, Alan frowned and said, "Edward doesn't know the news about the changes on Fenrir City's side?" ”
"Lord Edward knows, Fenrir City has a fixed piece of information delivered to you every month."
"So, Edward doesn't mean to interfere with Fenrir City at all?"
Cayili shook her head and said: "It can't be said that there is none, in fact, among the people who were excluded by Willt, if it wasn't for our secret blade, several people would have been assassinated by Wafft." ”
"Assassination?" Alan snapped his fingers: "Which people?" ”
"First Captain Jeff, and then these ......," Kayli pointed to a few people on the list.
There are not many people, but these four people all hold relatively important positions. Cayl added, "Although Lord Edward did not interfere too much, judging from the instructions he fed back, it seems that Lord Edward wants to catch the big fish of Swift at once. But last week, he got a new directive......"
"What instructions?"
Kayili bowed her head and said, "He said that the fishermen are here, and there is nothing for him here." ”
After hearing this, Alan couldn't help laughing and scolding: "This guy will reduce his burden." Since you saved these people, you should know where they are now, right? ”
The maid nodded.
"Bring them to me, remember to stay hidden."
"My subordinates know."
After Caylee left, Lucy asked, "What are you going to do with that Wick?" ”
"This is a cunning old man." Alan shook his head and said, "You also heard it just now, Swift had already withdrawn from the power circle of Fenrir City before Duruff's death, and even when we were in the city, we didn't see this person exert half of his strength. But now that Fenrir City is stable, he jumped out and wanted to fight for power, clearly seeing that the Bright Territory has a lot to do now. ”
"Not only is there a lot to be done, but the future is bright." Lucy smiled: "Not to mention the farming that the Bright Territory vigorously supports now, a glorious light alone will bring an incomparably bright future to this territory." Of course, the premise is that you, Lord Allen, can always be promoted to the rank of knight. Then it's not hard to imagine how many people will flock to the glory light as your influence gradually expands. The tariffs on these people alone are a lot of money. Not to mention the other business opportunities brought about by the increase in population, this Swift is clearly trying to squeeze out Little Oss in order to make enough money. ”
"The treacherous old fox." Alan smiled: "I believe Edward has already arranged, with his temperament, he wants to stew Wick in warm water." Edward is good at and keen on layout. You see, Rykerd's mountain town is an example, and his set is actually not bad, at least getting rid of Wickt won't make Fenrir City too turbulent. But the disadvantages are also very obvious, Swift will lose inexplicably, but for some people who have a heart, this approach is too lacking in deterrence. ”
"Went to one Waift, and there's no guarantee that there won't be a second. Even if not now, there will always be in the future. The reason is not for me, but for Os. As long as they feel that Oss is not tough enough, then there will be a second Waift, or even a third or fourth. ”
Alan stood up: "To get rid of Waift once and for all, it's not enough to get rid of Swift. And there is also a particular way to get rid of him, and on the way back, I told Oss that this time I want him to come out and be a wicked person. This wicked man is for those who have a heart. To be a good lord, to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than a combination of grace and power. The gift was sent out early. Now, it's time for our little Oss to shine. ”
He walked towards the gate.
"Looking for little Oss?"
"No, I'll talk to little Os when Kayli brings someone here." Alan blinked, "Now, let's go meet our Highness Lily." I hope she's going to let me save a woman, Rou Bone Naga......"
"You get out." Lucy rolled her eyes and reached out to the door.
"Yes." Alan bowed solemnly and left with a smile.
Knocking on Lily's door, it was a dragon knight who opened the door. The knight nodded, and turned sideways to let Eren enter the room. In the hall of the room, Lily sat cross-legged, holding a large plate in her hand, and threw the melons and fruits into her mouth, which did not look very good.
"You're here." Lily ate a few blackberries in two bites, tilted her head to look at Allen and said, "When I saw you this time, your complexion was much better than before." Seeing that the source force has been broken through by you? ”
"It's just a fluke." Alan smiled.
"It's shit luck." Lily put down the melon and fruit bowl and jumped to the ground to hook her fingers: "Come with me, she won't last long." ”
"Who is she?" Alan asked casually as she followed her.
Lily said coldly, "That's not your concern, you just need to transform her for me and let her live." Then I'll hand over the five Dragon Knights to you, and our deal will be done. ”
Her Royal Highness the princess's cold Alan is not surprised, the Naga have always had no good feelings towards humans, and Lily's reaction is very reasonable. He thought too, this Servant Transformation was just a deal with Lily, who was the other party, and what did it matter to him?
Lily stopped at a door, knocked on it, and whispered, "He's coming." ”
A woman's voice inside said quietly, "Come in." ”
Lily nodded and nudged Alan, "Hurry up and get in, don't say I didn't warn you." If you dare to do anything other than save people, I will dare to break this city! ”
"Yes, yes, everything is under the orders of His Highness." Alan said deliberately.
Lily's teeth creaked, and she wanted to bite into the nasty creature.
