Chapter 387 The King of the Virgil Family

During this period of great changes in Alcanas, the great nobles who hardly stayed overnight here seemed to want to take root here, urging the development of wind turbines day and night, and arranging manpower to infiltrate Conrad's smelting factories, or engage in bribery.

The judgment of Mo Bei and others is not bad at all. Virgil and the big businessmen have met secretly several times to discuss how to deal with the huge crisis brought about by the Conrad family.

In the evening, Borg, the president of the Chamber of Commerce and Trade, who was dressed like an ordinary peddler, approached Vergil in a hurry, took off his sand-proof hood and asked:

"Virgil, what's the matter with this competition?"

They had just discussed together at noon whether to take violent actions. However, in order to equalize Conrad's numerical advantage in Kurast Harbor, both of them mobilized a large number of garrison forces from the mining area.

With the current manpower of the two of them, an armed conflict will most likely lead to a stalemate, the cost is too high, and it may not be possible to grab the core sample of the wind turbine.

Originally, they were still gloating, wanting to see how Conrad would pay the huge commissions and expenses. In a few months, as long as they joined hands to crowd out and pressure all aspects of trade, Conrad, who was short of money, would probably have to sell Spit out the fluorite share obtained at a huge price.

Unexpectedly, after a few days, the situation has changed drastically. Now it seems that they are paying Conrad that high commission!

The discussion was fruitless, and the few people dispersed temporarily. However, Borg received an invitation letter from Vergil not long ago, and the above content was something they had never mentioned before.

He was a little annoyed, because it meant that Virgil should have sent the same thing to Conrad, otherwise it wouldn't be so official.

"Surprise, right? I too... also just got a surprise, haha!" Virgil happily poured Borg a glass of wine, and continued:
"Hi.. At first I felt a little helpless, but in the afternoon, the second son's adventure team just returned to Caldeum City, and several elite teams of the family also came back for a short rest."

"What strength?" Borg immediately understood Virgil's plan when he heard that, and asked directly about the key point.

"They are all around level [-]. My son and the others just killed the Mephisto projection, and the others all came back from Trevank." When Fugil talked about these things, he spoke very slowly. His pride seems to have cured his slight stutter.

"Oh!?"

Borg was a little surprised. There are not many children in the family who can reach this step. Although they are all supported and cultivated, their identities determine that they do not need to work hard to enjoy a good life that ordinary people can't imagine. It's not that there are none, but they are all very individual existences.

Moreover, if you want to challenge Mephisto, you need a team with a strong enough relationship. A team formed purely by family children will inevitably have some suspicions due to the complicated family relationship.

Borg himself is also an experienced person, and he is still very clear about these things.

"Conrad has a unique personality. He has no heirs for his own use. The training of collateral children is completely fake. It is said that a team was killed a while ago, and he didn't even ask a word, so their family has grown up. There are not many guards, and among those guards, it is impossible for any of them to be my son's opponent."

"At that time, they will easily overthrow their people one by one in public. In the face of the huge gap in strength, the overall morale will inevitably be frustrated. Next, we will find another incident. My son will lead the team, and we will jointly attack Conrad's smelter. , the resistance we received would be greatly weakened, and when we robbed things and came back to study, Conrad didn’t have a temper with us. The Holy See doesn’t care about this kind of thing.”

Virgil continued to explain slowly, and then asked in a gossip tone:
"That girl from Rodney's family...what's going on...has been silent for so many years?"

"...I don't know that!" Berg saw the greed hidden in his eyes, and responded angrily.

"Conrad hasn't seen us all this time, will he pick on you?"

"What if all his men want to participate?"

Virgil proudly took out a staff and a ring, both of which were dark gold equipment.

colorful anger

This staff is the absolute best. Equipment with +3 skills is extremely rare, and it also increases the upper limit of life and resistance, which is extremely attractive to mages.

And that ring is also a good thing that all professions will flock to, the Stone of Jordan!

Borg, who has a rich collection and has no needs of his own, couldn't help but look at these two pieces of equipment, let alone those family guards.

This is a reward for the final winner, and the rule here is that the winner of each game can take a piece of equipment from the opponent.It is true that life here is monotonous and boring, so this kind of exciting competition is still very attractive.

"Understood, I'm going to prepare as well. I hope we can cooperate happily." Borg left a pointed sentence, put on his turban again and left.

These two people talked here for a long time, but they didn't know that Mo Bei and others decided to participate without much hesitation. They didn't know that there would be a final reward, but the rule of picking up a piece of equipment from the loser in every game is heard If you have passed, you can exercise your muscles and bones, and you can also get equipment, so why not do it.

They had a similar experience outside the tomb of Tal Rasha, and there would definitely be a few good things piled on the players. Although the sparring at that time was just for Duriel's right to challenge, and there was no rule of stealing equipment, the reason It's the same, if you want to increase the winning rate, the bet you put in will be higher.

The event was scheduled for the next day, and it seemed that the decision was very random.This was also done on purpose by Fugil, and it seemed that he just proposed to hold this event on a whim, wanting to watch a few battles between job changers.

The rules of the competition are unlimited challenges, and there is no limit to the number of games. People in the field can choose to fight directly, or they can leave after winning, but that has nothing to do with the final reward.

Only this kind of rule can achieve the effect Virgil wants. Everyone is eligible to play, but if they are beaten to the ground and no one on one side dares to play again, then everyone will feel frustrated, let alone losers. equipped ones.

But if there is a limit on the number of games, that would be equivalent to an extra excuse for failure, and the overall effect on morale would be greatly reduced.

Even the amount of the final reward was determined after some calculations. It was enough to be tempting, but not too much to make people suspect that he had some schemes.

Fatty Vergil is quite proud of the turning point brought by the family's children and his rigorous planning!

this!It's Wang Ba's weather!

The venue for the discussion is set in a small square in the center of the city. The public area of ​​this city is not large, and it is almost surrounded by three smelters in the center. Find a roof with a good view on the side of this small square, and you will be able to The situation of the whole city is roughly brought into the eyes.

This is why Mo Bei has been able to use a telescope to see the process of making various windmills clearly in the past few days, which is a lot of fun.

It's not that they haven't considered that the other two will use this event as a cover to secretly attack their territory, but the structure of the city has already eliminated this possibility.

However, they still removed all the generators on the day of the event, and the smelter was shut down. Both the workers and the guards were on vacation to watch the game!

Paid!

Extra meal!
