Otherworld Qin

192 Chapter 209
Gomos was sitting on his golden chair, drinking delicious wine, and the butler was holding the account book to report to him, "My lord, our mercenary group has been attacking everywhere recently, and has robbed more than a dozen small mines and wood factories. Among them, the most valuable are two metasequoia wood factories and a gold mine. I have already arranged for the mercenary union to manage them. As long as we provide relevant procedures, these mine wood factories can be transferred to our name."

Gomos nodded slightly, obviously very satisfied, "How much can these benefits be?" The steward looked through it carefully and then hurriedly said, "The total value of these mines and wood factories should be more than 4000 million gold coins. If they are all full If load mining is used, it can increase our income by [-] million gold coins a year."

Gomos nodded again, "Is there any news from the Red Dragon?" Hearing this question, the housekeeper seemed a little embarrassed, "The Red Dragon Mercenary Group, I'm afraid,,, the group has been wiped out."

This time, Gomos could no longer keep calm, and he couldn't help but leaned down and stared at the steward, "How could this be?" So I was ambushed by the beast army of the personal guard of Grand Duke Julio, and the whole army was wiped out a few days ago."

Gomos couldn't help but smile slightly, "These idiots, Julio's little fox is not that easy to deal with, and it's just a dream to overthrow the Principality of Julio just relying on the countermeasures of those cats and dogs."

"The mines and wood factories in Honglong used to be very valuable. Whose name is it now?" Hearing Gomos' question, the housekeeper couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Will Gomos be furious when he comes out, and then spread his anger on himself?The housekeeper hesitated for a moment and said, "It is said that it is said to be under the name of Rose Group."

"Well, I guess it will be the same. This Julio is really a little fox, so why don't you go and prepare two generous gifts, one for Duke Julio. After all, we are still on his land now, and now he has calmed down. We should express our congratulations for the civil strife, so that we can take care of anything in the future, give another copy to the rose group, and tell them that we only ask for money and don’t want to have any conflicts with them, let’s do it.”

The butler hurriedly responded, but was stopped when he was about to leave, "Wait, I asked you to arrange a small gift for the Thunder Mercenary Corps. How are you doing?" The regiment has been completely restrained by that mine, and they can't move half a step." Gomos couldn't help smiling, "Okay, that's good."

The butler looked at him, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it. Gomos couldn't help but said coldly, "If you have anything to say, just say it. I hate this kind of hesitation." I don't understand, why don't you support the Thunder Mercenary Group to attack the Mercenary City?"

"Hmph," Gomos sneered, "Actually, I have already guessed their plan, but a small lightning mercenary group played tricks in front of me and wanted to drag us to attack the mercenary city together. What are the benefits to us from overthrowing the Principality of Julio at that time? Just imagine, even if West of Lille County takes the position of Grand Duke, what benefits will it have for us? This forest is like a treasure, who would be willing to give it to us? The money in my pocket is taken out to give to others. For the Thunder Mercenary Group, it is just a tool to provide us with cheap labor. Now I don’t want to lose him, so I use some means to restrain him so that he can continue to be used by me. If he really participated, I'm afraid the end will be as miserable as the red dragon, it's not very good now, he kept his mercenary group, and I can continue to get cheap labor from him."

"My lord's opinion is really wise." "If you don't say it, I'd forget it. Tell those people to retreat, and you don't need to besiege the Thunder Mercenary Group anymore, but we will send people to keep harassing them in the future. This tiger is too fat for us to raise." , you have to control it at the right time, otherwise it will hurt people. You can contact me with the other two small groups in Calais recently. We can't rely solely on thunder and lightning to provide labor, which is too restrained. The corps are small, but after all, they also have a channel to plunder slaves from Calais, and with our help, they will grow up soon, and then we can completely get rid of the trouble of thunder and lightning."

"My lord, we have cooperated with Leiden for so many years, why are you still so worried about them?" Gomos looked at the housekeeper, "You mean to say that I am commensurate with Leiden's team leader and friends, why are you still wary of plotting against him behind the scenes? Well, in fact, there is nothing strange about it, everything is just interests, we are strangers other than interests, we can't be friends at all, and the only ones who can become friends with our noble dark elves are those proud elves clan or the arrogant dragon clan, but we disdain to associate with them, so in this world, all races are just interests with us, and we will never have real friends."

"I understand, then this subordinate will leave first." The butler politely said goodbye, but Gomos sat there thinking about his own thoughts. According to the observation he sent, the murderer who killed his brother is now fighting on the front line, and before going to Before the front line, they had secretly entered the depths of the forest. What were they going to do?Judging from their route, are they going to explore the mithril mine?At that time, Gomos sneered at this trip. Over the years, countless people have been thinking about the Mithril mine, but no one has ever succeeded. Just relying on that little B-level mercenary group?

Seeing that Reg returned to the Mercenary City alone with wounds on his body, he thought their plan had failed and was injured by those powerful monsters. That damned Ye Shengxuan was more likely to be buried in the belly of the monsters, but he didn't expect this The kid appeared miraculously, and his strength seemed to have improved, which made Gomos's heart beat. Could it be that they had already conquered the monster group there?

This completely made him nervous. Mithril is no better than fine iron. Although he owns the largest fine iron ore, the whole mine can’t keep up with the value of a large piece of mithril. It is an endless treasure. fell into the hands of others.

Thinking of this, Gomos couldn't sit still any longer. Before, he was busy snatching immediate benefits. Now that the war has gradually stabilized and the civil strife in the principality has subsided, there is no chance for him to snatch other people's mines and wood factories, so he set his eyes on On that tempting mithril mine.

He really wanted to take someone to check it now, but after calming down, he felt a different feeling in his heart. Was that Reg really injured?Or is it deliberately pretending to be seen by others?You must know that there are many eyes staring at that place. Although many people don't know about the Mithril Mine, it's not that no one knows about it. Didn't you pick up a hot potato?At that time, people who pay attention will definitely find out and start harassing themselves continuously. Even if they are not strong enough, can't they release the news?Then there will be endless troubles.

After thinking about it, Gomos sat down again, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "This little fallen leaf mercenary group, I really underestimated you, secretly took down the Mithril mine but was not in a hurry to develop it, but ran away What kind of battle is going to fight, so that everyone who knows the mithril mine has an illusion, hehe, it is interesting, interesting."

Perhaps this is the weakness of Gomos. He is always too scheming and regards everything as a conspiracy, and his own arrogant character will not believe anyone's words at all, so gradually he is in his own illusion. Lost.

"Since you can do it, so can I. When I take it secretly, I will pretend to be seriously injured, and then release the news of the serious injury. In this way, no one will think that the mithril mine has fallen into my hands. I thought that the monsters there are really fierce, even I can’t do anything about them, and other people won’t bother with that mine.” Gomos picked up the glass and took a sip, and then his face was full of intoxicated smiles .

As for the fallen leaf mercenary group?The murderer who killed his younger brother will die at his own hands sooner or later. Now that Grand Duke Julio has just quelled the civil strife, it is a sensitive period, so let them live for a few more days for the time being.

After thinking about all this, Gomos drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, then got up and walked out. The magnificently decorated hall suddenly became empty. Usually, Gomos was only meeting with guests or listening to the butler's account. I will stay here for a while, most of the time it is idle, I really don't know what this luxurious living room built with countless gold coins is for.

A few days later, Gomos left the station secretly with several masters in the regiment. Even the housekeeper didn't say hello. The group of them circled the forest, seemingly going deep into the frozen swamp, but no one knew. Unexpectedly, they just avoided everyone's eyes and ears, and then turned and went straight to the Mithril Mine.

Of course Shengxuan didn't know about these. At the moment, the fort was full of wounded soldiers, and Lauren didn't give them the task of changing defenses. He just sent them a few good doctors along with the reinforcement of [-] fresh troops.

For the past few days, the people of Calais have been pressuring the camp, and Upton and Fred have no intention of fighting this hopeless war. Discuss together how to deal with King Theodore's questioning.

After Shengxuan's injuries healed, he felt that his strength had improved slightly, and he should be regarded as an intermediate holy rank, but I don't know how long it would take to break through the holy rank and reach the illusion. After all, Reg's strength is now no more than It's just the pinnacle of the holy rank.

That day, he got up early, took Alavi out of the fortress, and started practicing kung fu in a secluded place in a small valley next to him. After this battle, he let them catch up with him. If Shengxuan was to face Fred, Maybe he will win, but it must be very difficult to win.

After a few days like this, it seemed calm as water, but Shengxuan didn't know that a bigger disaster was about to befall him.

Pound traveled day and night, and finally returned to the Dharma Hall. When he saw the Great Elder Gatiaro, he quickly knelt down, crawled to the front, and tears were streaming down his face as he crawled, "Great Elder, If the subordinates are not doing well, please ask the elders to punish them."

Gatiaro looked at him coldly, "Hmph, you still know that things are not going well, do you remember what I sent you there for? Don't think I don't know what you are doing when you are in the Dark Canyon."

Hearing this, Pang De was even more shocked. He knew the Great Elder's temper very well. Although he looked extremely gentle in front of others, behind him, even the most vicious Black Mamba might not be as vicious as him.

He hurriedly crawled over and fell on the ground and hugged the elder's feet, crying while pleading for himself, "Elder, I was just confused for a while. I originally wanted to get some benefits from Naer County so that I could come back to honor you, but I didn't expect A few idiots in Nare County failed such a safe thing, especially that Rian, who was reluctant to ask Julio for soldiers, so he made things like this, and finally turned into a bitter fruit and died of himself Not to mention, it was a waste of the Great Elder's hard work."

Hearing Pound's random words, Gatiaro couldn't help snorting coldly. Pound suddenly thought about it, and hurriedly said, "Although this matter is not handled well by this subordinate, I have found another piece of news for you. Your enemies are now stationed at Helmet Mountain Fortress, do you want to,,,"

"What did you say?" Gatiaro immediately aroused his pain when he heard this. How could he forget this grudge when his only son died?As the great elder of the temple under the temple, he was originally not allowed to marry, but Gatiaro fell in love with a priestess of the temple, and used despicable means to forcibly occupy that woman. After that, he had this son. Although the matter was concealed for a long time, it eventually became an undisclosed secret of the empire.

Because the matter is so important, the temple did not pursue the matter, but pretended not to know, so Gatialo directly took his only son to the temple and became a magic apprentice. If you say that this child is really talented , although he entered the Dharma Hall late, he quickly mastered the two systems of magic, and in the apprenticeship test that year, he was found to have the potential to become an elemental mage, which made Gatiaro even more fond of him.

However, this kid, after knowing his life experience, began to become arrogant and domineering, and spent his days drinking and drinking, and finally ended up with no bones left under the instigation of others. Whenever Gatiaro thought of this, his heart ached, but Because I have been busy with seizing power during this period of time, I have no time and energy to take care of this hatred.

Hearing Pound's words today made him furious. He couldn't help looking at Pound in a daze and asked, "Tell me, what kind of person is my enemy?"

Pound explained in detail some of the rumors he heard when he was in the military, and Gatiaro calmly said after listening, "Okay, since you are still loyal, you will not be punished this time." You, although I lost the opportunity to control the mercenary city this time, I will take it back sooner or later. Now that our strength is not enough to compete with the royal family, this matter is not so important. I am a little tired. You go down."

Hearing this, Pang De felt as if he had received amnesty, and hurriedly kowtowed to salute, and then crawled out of the room backwards. It felt like walking through the gate of hell.

After he got out of the room, Pang De couldn't help but hastily wiped the cold sweat off his face. His back was already drenched, but when he finished tidying up, he immediately changed his appearance and walked away with his head held high.

Gatiaro sat there, and couldn't help thinking about the Duke Julio in his heart. Although it seemed that his plan had failed, he had a way to deal with Duke Julio. Thinking of this, he couldn't help showing a sneer, "Hu Leo? You little fox will fall into my hands sooner or later."

In the secret room, Gatiaro picked up the crystal wine bottle next to him and filled himself with a glass of wine. Originally, everyone who served in the temple was not allowed to drink, but in this secret room, he can naturally do whatever he wants.

Looking at a statue of a woman next to him, a trace of tenderness suddenly appeared in his eyes, and his hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, he stepped forward and gently stroked the statue's face, "Nasha, why did you leave like this, even though I Knowing who you are and me, we can't be together, but I,,,, I really love you, and now our son is gone, did you see him in heaven?"

While talking, Gatiaro's eyes were filled with tears. He raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes lightly, then poured the glass of wine into his mouth in one gulp. The originally mellow wine felt extremely bitter at this moment. "I must avenge this revenge."

When the words fell, he didn't see any force in his hand, and the crystal wine glass in his hand turned into dust and fell down, as if it had been burned to ashes by the flames.
