Lord of War

v1 Chapter 51: .Changes

  Tindsburg is another characteristic building of the Royce family.

  The fortress was built on a small hill hundreds of meters away from the city of Anrolla, and the overall architectural style is slightly calm and atmospheric. However, from the construction style of Royce Manor, you can see how the Royce family manages. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Tindesburg is actually a mini fortress—there are only three gates. Better cushion the momentum of the offensive side.

  However, as a noble fortress, the width of the walls of Tindesberg can't really be compared with the fortress. This is mainly due to the adjustments made in consideration of the daily garrison in the fortress. But the architect who designed this fortress at the time was undoubtedly a very clever architect. Nearly two-thirds of the overall structure of Timbersberg was made up of various fortifications, but there was no waste of any part of the entire fortress. Compared with Royce Manor, Timbersburg is more mature and complete.

   Obviously, both places are from the same designer.

  This fortress is not difficult to attack, but it is definitely easy to defend.

The only pity is that the number of conventional garrisons in the fort was close to one thousand, but since the old Marquis Perrault fell into a coma, the military strength in the fort has been slashed, and now there are less than two hundred garrisons in Tindesberg. Even the daily maintenance of the fortifications is somewhat reluctant. And these are the actions of Count Mario. Many knights who were directly affiliated with the Marquis Perot have now been transferred to Count Mario, and there are only a few more loyal ones left.

  And Anrolla’s city defense garrison will also never participate in the struggle for inheritance between the nobles, because they don’t need to show loyalty to anyone, and whoever inherits the territory still has to use them. In this regard, let alone the city of Anrolla, even the city defense garrison of Arthur City would have the same idea.

  This is also the reason why Earl Mario deliberately wants to get righteousness before attacking him. Only in this way, the army he can call will reach tens of thousands.

   and Durun on the other hand.

  As a son, he is undoubtedly the best, but as a future heir to a territory, this is unqualified.

  Sean didn’t want to intervene in the battle for the inheritance of the two people, it was for this reason. It is too difficult for Du Luen to assist. Unless he can directly sever Mario's left arm and right arm, or even force him to jump over the wall, from the perspective of victory and negative, Du Luen has already been defeated, but high-level strength. , Du Luen also did not have the slightest advantage.

  Sean doesn’t care who wins and who loses in this heir’s battle. Anyway, his 10,000 pan-continental gold coin reward will never run away. Without Du Luen, there is still a Harley. Therefore, after turning down Harley’s invitation, Sean didn’t stay in Anrolla much at all. Instead, he packed a carriage to leave Anrolla overnight and headed to a nearby small village.

   "So, that young man named Sean has left?"

  At this moment, Count Mario asked in a deep voice in a side room in Timbersberg. He had to raise his voice slightly, because there was a celebration in the main hall next to him. Although the noisy voice covered the secret talks on their side well, in some cases, their communication It also becomes a little difficult.

  After all, Timbersburg is a fortress built like a war fortress, and there are too few places for private conversation.

"Yes." The magician named Mudds nodded, "If it is the same as the information we have collected before, then Du Luen and the others can pass the Starfall Forest, it is definitely the person's credit.... But It is not ruled out that some tricky method that we don't know may be used."

   "Martin, what do you think?" Earl Mario nodded and turned to look at the third person present.

"I don't think it's like a tricky method." Martin the heavy armored knight remembered for a moment, and then said, "Old Peter sees his eyes full of appreciation. It's impossible for a veteran like him. Easily show this look. Moreover, under the cover of my murderous aura, he and the apprentice magician are not afraid at all. This can at least show that both of them have at least experienced a certain degree of fierce battle."

   "If you have the courage to cross the Starfall Forest, you can't be afraid." Mudds said softly, "And you didn't use all your strength."

"I can't do my best for that kind of occasion." If it wasn't for Martin who knew Mudds' temperament for a long time, and thought he was going downhill, he would still explain, "Otherwise, it would be to the earl. Your lord makes enemies."

  Compared with magicians, most of them don't care about the occasion or atmosphere. Of course, knights like Martin and nobles like Mario have to consider more issues. If Martin does his best under such circumstances, that approach is really problematic, at least as Martin said, Count Mario will doubt whether he is going to hurt himself.

   "Martin makes sense." Count Mario nodded, and then spoke again, "So it seems that Sean shouldn't be a concern?"

"From the current results, this person named Sean should really have nothing to do with those of Du Luen." Mudds nodded, "And judging from the information collected from all aspects, he is just one person. It's just a mercenary."

   Mercenaries, and mercenaries, are two different concepts.

  The former refers to an organization that specializes in doing things with money. It is one of the largest guild organizations in the entire Marvel Continent, and is as famous as the Adventurers’ Guild and the Trailblazer’s Guild. Mercenaries refer specifically to first-tier occupations.

   "If this is the case, maybe we can hire him?" Martin asked.

"A warrior and a magician apprentice, I don't think this kind of strength can come in handy." Mudds denied this proposal, "They may have great potential, but they can play in the coming war. The role of is too small. And if it is cultivated...only the apprentice magician has some value, and her potential is really good."

"Well, in that case, Mudds, you find a way to test them." Earl Mario pondered for a moment, and finally said, "Although Harley is a businessman, he is not a fool after all, at least better than Burwell. Much smarter. Even he is so optimistic about this person named Sean, I'm afraid there is still some real stuff."

   "Yes, my lord." Mudds nodded respectfully.

  At this moment, a knock on the door in the hall suddenly sounded.

  Earl Mario nodded, and Martin walked over and opened the door. Standing outside the door was a knight. He was Martin’s adjutant. At this moment, he was standing outside the door with a person dressed as an attendant. Under Martin’s questioning eyes, the attendant took out a letter and handed it to Martin.

  "Letter from the Medusa Chamber of Commerce." The attendant's expression was calm and calm. It was obvious that this identity was just a disguise, "Please forward it to Your Excellency Mudds."

  Martin nodded. The attendant soon left under the leadership of the Knight's adjutant, and Martin returned to Mudds and handed the letter to Mudds. This move did not arouse the dissatisfaction of the Count Mario, because whether it was Martin or the Count Mario, they knew very well that although Mudds was an assistant to the Count Mario, it was actually a product of a combination of interests. He came. This is just to help Earl Mario obtain the right to inherit the territory.

  Essentially, Mulders is actually a member of the Medusa Chamber of Commerce.

  After unfolding the letter and watching it again, Mudds's long-lasting gloomy complexion seemed to have become more gloomy, which made the surrounding air suddenly become a little gloomy.

  After a while, Mudds finally said in a deep voice, "Master Earl, it seems that our plan needs to be changed."

"What's the matter?" Mario frowned. He finally set up a perfect chess game, waiting for the perfect ending. But at this time, the plan changed, which naturally made him feel a little depressed. .

"The square spinel has been taken back by the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce." Mudds handed the letter in his hand to Count Mario, "The kobold camp quietly arranged by our Chamber of Commerce has been uprooted. The Black Cat Chamber of Commerce has re-mobilized its staff. The revenge has been fully launched. I am afraid that in the next plan, the Medusa Chamber of Commerce can no longer provide you with any external help."

   "The Black Cat Chamber of Commerce has broken its rules?" This was the first reaction of Mario Earl, "They sent people with strength above Tier 4?"

   "No, they didn't." Mudds shook his head.

  High-level talents, there are large-scale chambers of commerce that can achieve a transnational scale. The only problem is the number. However, it is precisely because the scale and business scope of its chambers of commerce are already transnational, so naturally they will also be checked and balanced by the pan-continental chamber of commerce alliance treaties. High-level powers cannot act at will. They often exist as strategic deterrents. Only in the face of higher-level business competition, can you make a move.

  Like Tindes, according to the judgment of the Pan-Continent Chamber of Commerce Alliance, this is only a first-level area, and the highest level can only allow contests of third-level strength. Of course, if Tindes’s leadership grows stronger, and there are more high-level talents, then the regional judgment level will naturally increase accordingly, and the scale of the competition among the chambers of commerce will of course be corresponding. promote.

  This is also the reason why the high-level power beside Ron didn't make a move.

  Checks and balances are the eternal law.

   "What the **** is going on?" Count Mario was a little puzzled.

"We don't know the specific reasons and details." Mudds shook his head, "but now it has evolved into a battle between the two chambers of commerce. After all, Burwell is just the business leader here. He couldn't get involved in the fight. But I personally suggest that regarding the Marquis of Perrault, we might really postpone the killer, at least until the fight with the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce has a temporary result before we can do it. "

  Earl Mario's face was not somber anymore.

   finally set a lore game, but because of other reasons, he had to temporarily close the game, how could he accept it! It's a pity that until now, it can only be so.
