Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 333 Magic Crystal Starts
(two in one)

Atsk Angers and Gene O'Connor walked briskly on the streets in the center of Silikie, and all passers-by who saw them said "Hello Lord".

Baron Jean, who would respond with a smile in the past, could only smile wryly and wave his hands at this time, and then continued to whisper with Atsk.

"The idiots of the Boyle Chamber of Commerce, if I hadn't been busy with the long-eared elves in the jungle and had no time to take care of them, they would have been the first to clean up! They weren't there when they were asked to work, and they were still pointing fingers. The lord is useless. Once the crisis is over, he will pop up and jump around!"

Baron Gene cursed, while Atsk shook his head and said, "Jean, what did the Boyle Chamber of Commerce do before you came to Silikie?"

"They? They are a group of local rich! A few years ago, I did not know where to get some high-quality magic crystals, and started to take advantage of the trend. That is to say, the three cities near the jungle are not much different from the villages. No one suppressed them, and put them in Ama. The central part of Syl has been wiped out long ago!"

Atzke rubbed his temples sadly.

There seems to be some error in his intelligence.

Based on what he inquired about, he speculated that the Boyle Chamber of Commerce took the lead in resisting the new lord and planned to support the old lord, Baron Jean, to come to power.Without knowing the relationship between Gene O'Connor and Cyril Adrian, this seems to be somewhat feasible.

After all, this is the northern part of Amasir, and it has always been an area that no one cares about. Whoever has the biggest fist is the one who can talk.

Following such a script, it was natural for Cyril and Gene to cooperate internally and externally, and Gene backstabbed the gang of chambers of commerce and firmly supported Cyril as the lord.Next, the two carried out a wave of iron-blooded suppression, completely overthrowing the Boyle Chamber of Commerce.

As a result, as soon as he arrived at the office, he bumped into Mr. Baron, who was drinking tea leisurely in the yard, waiting for "work"——

It was only then that he remembered that their new lord didn't seem to care about the matter of "assuming office" at all. He went directly to find the little farming expert yesterday, and he didn't agree with him at all.Baron Jean didn't know much about it, and he, Atsk Angers, devoted himself to his work yesterday and went to give a good tutorial to Irina, the second lady of the Romanuk family. In order to inform Baron Jean of this matter!
Anyway, under all kinds of wonderful misunderstandings, "Baron Jean didn't even know that the inauguration meeting was today", and Cyril went to the Boyle Chamber of Commerce alone.

And the speculation he made was naturally wrong!
"So, based on their habits, it is estimated that they will first threaten and lure the lord, and if the lord does not cooperate, they will directly send people to surround and kill you, and then let you become the lord again?"

"It's probably like this..." Gene looked cautious, "Now I'm very worried."

"Worried about the safety of the lord?"

"No, I'm worried that the building of the chamber of commerce will be demolished."

The two just rushed to the downstairs of the Boyle Chamber of Commerce, but they saw that the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce was already in a mess, and people kept screaming and running out of the door.

But as soon as they raised their heads, they saw a bright blue light from the window above their heads, and then two mercenaries flew out together with the window, and fell in front of them with a clatter.

"It seems that your worry is correct." Azik looked at the two mercenaries who passed out and broke their hands, and nodded sympathetically.

Just as they finished speaking, they heard another "boom" from above, and then half of a fat middle-aged man leaned out of the window, waving his hands:

"Help, help!"

"Ah, it's Mr. Mark Boyle." Atzke waved his hand upwards. That man is the president of the Boyle Chamber of Commerce. He usually likes to hold out his big belly, but at this time his belly is squeezed On the window frame, the fat is strangled there, I don't know how painful it is.

"Gene! Gene! Come up and save me! I support you as the lord!"

When Mark Boyle saw Baron Jean below, he roared like a pig but was immediately dragged back into the window, and then the half-elf boy with the sword poked his head out and swung the long sword in the air With a wave: "Good morning, Gene. Atzke, is the plan I want ready?"

Atsk trembled, lowered his head and remained silent, while Baron Jean sighed.

It was a farce.

When they walked into the building, they saw that the formerly imposing Boyle Chamber of Commerce had become a mess. The corridors were full of wailing mercenaries, and several mercenaries stretched out their hands to them for help.

And that Cyril's guard, that petite girl, was pulling a mercenary's leg out of a room, throwing the latter onto the stacked "mountain" of people, and then climbing to the top of the "mountain" At the top, sitting on the back of the mercenary, crossing his legs.

The moment she saw Atsk and Gene, her face turned red immediately, and then hurriedly jumped off the "mountain", and made a "shh" gesture to the two:

"Don't tell the lord that I am playing like this. He is in the conference room, interrogating those businessmen."

"Take us to see him." Genn nodded.

And Azike leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "What are you playing?"

"Do you know those necromancers and the bone skeletons summoned by the lich? When they attacked the city, they were stacked up like this. I suddenly wanted to try it just now."

Alina replied in a low voice, and quickly brought the two of them to the door of the conference room——

Half of the luxurious wooden door in Gene's impression was gone. Looking in from the door, he saw that the thick long table was broken in two, and the officers of the chamber of commerce he was familiar with knelt down in a row. The half-elf teenagers were patting their heads one by one with their long swords, especially President Mark Boyle, whose face was blue and purple.

"I don't know how O'Connor treated you before. It's useless for you to tell me about his rules. Now Siliki has to listen to me, do you understand?"

"understand."

"Well, tomorrow... no, before this evening, I want to see the completed trade list of Siliki, Yevwind and Somi, I want to see your trade routes, and I want to see your trade with Siliki Is there any problem with the development plan made by the business?"

"Before tonight?" An officer raised his head, "These things have not been specially prepared, it is impossible to take them out immediately, and you messed us up like this, I want you to compensate the Boyle Chamber of Commerce..."

Before he finished speaking, the long sword was pressed against his throat, making him unable to speak a word.

And Mark Boyle nodded in a hurry: "No problem, no problem, we will prepare it immediately and send it to the office before night..."

"I hope you will do what you say, otherwise..." Cyril turned his long sword sideways, and patted President Boyle's face lightly again, "Remember, I have to follow my rules here now."

He flicked a beautiful sword flower, put the long sword back into its sheath, then turned around, and said to the three people at the door:
"Jin, you came just in time, you are in a hurry, and then follow me out of town."

----------

The layer of tree vines outside the Siliki city wall has just begun to be cleaned up. The busy guards can't help but envy Yevwind, who grows big trees on the city wall, and can even be transformed into arrow towers. Unlike them, these tree vines are completely It doesn't work.

Cyril and the other four rode out of the city on horseback. There was still a piece of long grass outside the city gate. They followed the path opened by the farmer and headed towards the farmland.

"So, they originally planned to negotiate with me, and then use force after the negotiation broke down?" Cyril couldn't help laughing after hearing Atzke's narration, "But the mercenaries they hired are too weak. Even the city guards are inferior."

"Most of those mercenaries were hired by them to guard the merchants. At the beginning, they were pretty good, but they all ran away later, and most of the rest were related households." Atzke explained, "And Siliki is extremely desperate now. There is a shortage of people, and no elites are willing to come, this is something that can’t be helped.”

Gene O'Connor shook his head: "If the Boyle Chamber of Commerce can continue to provide magic crystals, I'm afraid it will attract a large number of people to Silikie. It's a pity, before I came here to take office, I thought I could make a fortune through magic crystals. It was discovered that the Chamber of Commerce has not produced magic crystals for a long time, and there is also the matter of the Elgin Forest..."

"The Boyle Chamber of Commerce started through the magic crystal?"

When Cyril heard the news from Gene, he couldn't help being taken aback.

Magic crystal, an ore that naturally contains a lot of magic power, is very valuable.Magic Crystal Mine is an extremely important strategic resource.

He remembered that when he left Solkonan, Miss Mia was researching how to efficiently transfer the magic power in the magic spar to the engraved magic circle.

Is there a source of magic spar in Elgin Jungle?

He recalled the relevant information in the game, but this is usually something that the guild pays attention to. A loner like him usually doesn't know about this information.

"Is Mark Boyle the founder of the Boyle Chamber of Commerce?"

"Yes, he founded the Boyle Chamber of Commerce about ten years ago and took root in this area. However, the Elgin Forest does not have any unique output, so the Chamber of Commerce has not been able to grow. Basically, it can only take over Siliki, Yev Wind and Somi's Market."

Cyril nodded.

Although there are no magic crystals now, President Boyle should still have relevant information - I think it is Baron Jean who decisively obtained information about magic crystals from the chamber of commerce and successfully mined them for the rapid development of the three cities in the future. .

If it is handled well, Siliki will have this extremely important resource in the future, and then a series of industries related to magic crystals will be derived, and even attract mages to come—

But that's all for later.

He raised the rein slightly, and the horse under his crotch immediately stopped.Not far away, a figure stood on a small platform, waving towards this side.

That was Cecilia Romanuk.

When they were separated yesterday, Cecilia invited Cyril to the farmland, saying that there were some problems in the farmland that they could not solve recently, so Cyril recruited Baron Jean as a thug.

"Miss Romanuk." Cyril stepped forward, and the latter cautiously jumped off the stage, his chest shaking heavily.

Her rolled up trouser legs and cuffs exposed her fair calves and forearms, and her skin was stained with a lot of grass juice.

"You can just call me by my name, my lord." She said respectfully, looking at Baron Jean behind with a troubled look, "And this former leader... no, Mr. Baron?"

"Gene O'Connor, just call me O'Connor." Gene shook his head.

"Well, Mr. O'Connor."

Cyril and Atsk looked at the latter in surprise at the same time, but the latter had an extremely calm face.

At this time, he really didn't seem to care about any territory at all, even the title of "Baron" bestowed on him by the duke could be discarded.

He has completely placed his bet on Cyril.

Cyril looked away and looked at the farmland not far behind Cecilia.

The Elgin River runs north-south. Its source is in the northern mountains of the Black Forest, flows through the northeast of Amasir, and finally joins the rest of Amasir's rivers, flowing to the Adlai Sea.

This river provides water for agriculture in places such as Siliki, and the water flow is stable all year round, and it enters the flood season during the rainy season.

And the farmland is not far from the Elgin River.

When he looked around, he could see the farmers working in it.There is still a lot of long grass in that field - the main culprit that has previously disturbed agriculture in the West Like area.

"Is there any long grass that will interfere with your planting?" Cyril asked.

"No, the crops can grow normally, and the growth rate is faster than before. I estimate that the first mature crops will be ushered in in June, not even in July."

Cecilia smiled brightly, and she wiped the sweat from her forehead, "What the lord said is true, the natural elements...ah no, the land has indeed returned to normal."

But she changed her voice immediately: "But it is precisely because of this that we discovered some other...things? I don't know what it is, so I can only ask the lord to take a look."

"What is it?"

"It's a big hole, specifically, come with me."

She lifted her pant legs and walked towards the farmland.Cyril noticed that there was a field where the long grass was still lush, but there was no farmer there to clean it up, as if it was intentionally isolated.

"It's here." Cecilia walked straight towards the isolated area, standing on the edge of the long grass, looking very apprehensive.

"Is there any difference here?" Atzke glanced at it a few times, but he didn't see any difference.

"I don't know how to describe it to the lord, but, well, I can feel that this piece of land is very dangerous, and its area seems to be expanding."

"Expand?" Cyril asked back.

"Specifically, hey, I can't tell." Cecilia shook her head.

"I see." Cyril said, closing his eyes.

Listen to the wind, activate.

The wind in the field suddenly became extremely active, they brushed the farmer's hair, and scrambled towards this piece of grass, but as soon as they reached the sky above the grass, they became extremely sluggish——

As if it was disturbed by something external.

"Huh?" Cyril opened his eyes in doubt, looked at the doubtful eyes of several people, and waved his hands.

"It seems that we have to go in and take a look for ourselves."

　I finally got over this messed-up plot... I'm not in a good state, sorry for that.
