Transcendent Noble

On the highest arrow tower of the Blue Goose Castle, in addition to the arrow frame, there is also a set of tables and chairs. The area of ​​fifteen square meters suddenly appears extremely cramped. Standing on the arrow tower, Count Chebman opened his long bow. With a sound of "weng", the heavy arrow struck a distance of more than 600 meters and nailed an ant man to the ground. Ant-man was not dead for a while, struggling desperately to neigh, but to pull the wound bigger, the green blood gurgled, and the other ants screamed.

"If it's Wind Element Great Knight, this arrow can be thrown to 800 meters away." Count Chebman put away the longbow, and looked back to see that his baby girl was putting her legs on the desk in an indecent manner. Could not help shaking his head.

"Father, although I have just been promoted to Great Knight, I am not wrong. I saw Victor shoot and kill the silver rank Ant-Man with a military heavy crossbow. Gillian looked at the boots on her lap. The boots designed by Victor suit her appetite. She plans to let the cobbler of the family make more styles of boots.

Count Chebman is a little surprised. He knows the strong personality of his lover. She never wears expensive women's clothes, especially half-high heels. Gillian’s abnormal behavior today made Count Chebman secretly happy. He felt that he could talk to the family heir about her marriage major event.

Count Chebman secretly decided to find a suitable husband for Gillian, but said calmly: "Wind Element Great Knight is known as the most terrifying Knight because they can use long-range weapons. Shooting the silver rank monsters, of course, also includes the Silver Knight. If Viscount Victor can shoot the silver rank Ant-Man with a heavy crossbow, his lethality can already be comparable to Wind Element Great Knight."

"What's so strange about this?" Gillian asked in surprise.

Count Chebman sighed: "I’m just a pity. I have known that Viscount Victor has the Wind Travel innate talent, but he didn’t expect him to reach this level in less than a year. It can be seen that his ancient bloodline is very pure, which means that his offspring can certainly become Knights, even Great Knights."

"So, Sophia, isn't that woman regretting her death?" Ji Lean said taking pleasure in other people's misfortune.

"Sophia's very good concealed, so good that everyone has forgotten her origin. She is essentially a wild Knight who hates family and bloodline. Wild Knights are aliens who admire freedom and despise authority. Without touching their heads and bloodshed, these jealous guys will not succumb to the family." Count Chebman paused, and continued: "I am incomprehensible right here, Sylvia and Sophia have a close relationship, why does she have to do it with us? Secret deal? It doesn’t make sense."

Jillian curl one's lip said displeasedly: "You doubt my vision, do you still doubt Dewitt's judgment? The soldiers around Victor are definitely elite Elite, they must have been sent by the York family to protect Victor."

Count Chebman groaned, and said, "Jillian, tell me about the situation again."

" At that time, Victor offered to trade with us with Mithril. The soldiers were around. Victor did not avoid them. They were all expressionless and no one showed an unexpected look. The only explanation was that they knew about it a long time ago. "Jillian replied helplessly.

Count Chebman paced back and forth. He still couldn't believe that such a good thing would fall on his head, but Gillian said impatiently, "Father, you think too much. The York family Accepting the entire population of Centaur Hills, the accumulated supplies are estimated to have been exhausted. They need new channels to replenish supplies. Obviously, our southern lord is one of their choices.

It is said that Sophia has personally Lead the caravan to Tatun dukedom to participate in the Barbarian tribe’s grand fair this year. The York family wants to get supplies from Sophia for at least half a year. Therefore, they want to establish contact with us through Victor. Anyway, it’s a secret transaction. Who knows? Even if other people know it, it's a behavior among freedmen. We don't know it."

Count Chebman said with his jaws: "What you said makes sense, but I always think this There is weirdness in it. Why did Viscount Victor want fifty thousand jinsols? And, what does it mean to not know, do not collect taxes, do not block, do not hurt?"

I don’t know, Count Chebman understands this. This kind of transaction involves sensitive materials, so you must first set yourself apart. Without taxation, Count Chebman is a little puzzled. Trading Mithril, iron essence, copper ingots, raw sugar, snow sugar, coffee, he is too happy to collect taxes? No blocking, no harm, and even more unfathomable mystery. How can I trade when the merchants are stopped?

"Father, Victor wants one hundred and fifty thousand gold sols. I saved you one hundred thousand gold sols. You remember to reward me, at least ten thousand gold sols, no, two Wan Kin Thor." Gillian said triumphantly, pointing to her nose.

"I also wonder why Victor has four meaningless conditions? But I didn't see any disadvantages to the family. This is enough, isn't it?"

Count Chebman laughed self-deprecatingly, picking up a long arrow and draping it on the bowstring. This breaking iron arrow used for longbow projecting is 1.3 meters long. The arrow shafts are all mixed with iron essence. They are heavy and sharp. Each breaking iron arrow is worth 10 silver sols. This is a centaur. The iron arrow prepared is very cruel, and the ant-man shot will not stop bleeding. In order to attract the ant colony to attack the castle, Count Chebman ordered that the use of cheap rockets be stopped and the expensive long arrows used.

"weng"

Another ant-man was nailed to the ground. A smile appeared on the corner of Count Chebman's mouth. His elite cavalry was ready to attract the ant colony at any time. To the bank of the river. At that time, the murloc will greet these nasty harmful insects instead of him.

"Victor this guy will do some weird fame."

Count Chebman can't figure it out, and doesn't plan to think about it again. However, when he wanted to understand, the thief ship that had been on Victor couldn't get off, but at that time, he didn't want to get off.

The capital of Gambis, the residence of the Minister of the Interior, Marquis Ludwig.

Viscount Tennes is sitting on the sofa in the living room. He is here to visit Marquis Ludwig. The Marquis is not only Turney's immediate boss, but also his teacher's old friend, and even his fiancee's grandfather. Therefore, Tennes can almost unimpeded in the Marquis House.

Today, Marquis Ludwig still has things to do, Tennes has to wait in the living room. The door of the Marquis's office opened, and Tennes stood up, preparing to greet the guests of the Marquis.

"Jacob? What's wrong with you?" Tennes was surprised to see that it was his fiancee's big brother Jacob Ludwig who came out. It's just that Jacob's expression is sad and indignant, and his eyes are red. Obviously something happened to him.

Jacob turned towards Tennes nodded and brushed past him without a word.

Tennes frowned and walked into the Marquis's office. He was surprised to find that Marquis Ludwig was also dull.

"My lord, what happened?" Tennes asked nervously.

Marquis Ludwig sighed: "Jacob's fiancee Michelle was murdered."

"How could this be?" Tennes turned pale in fright.

Jacob’s fiancee Michelle is the second daughter of Deerville count. She is only 16 years old this year, but she is a stunning beauty who has awakened the Moon Elf bloodline. Jacob is very obsessed with Michelle, didn’t 't expect She will be murdered.

Tennes can understand why Jacob lost self-control just now. As the future grandson-in-law of the Marquis, he should also express it as reasonably in every circumstance.

"My lord, who did it?"

The Marquis shook his head and said, "I don't know who is behind the scenes? Michelle was assassinated while traveling. It looks like the notorious Throat Slasher in technique. Duke Peter is very furious and is investigating this matter thoroughly."

Tennes was silent. Deerville count is a famous business nobleman in the United Kingdom of Bory. Duke Peter’s supporter, count’s wife is Wimbledon’s bloodline, and she is a cousin with Duchess Peter. Michelle's killing was most likely an action against Duke Peter.

Throat Slasher is a famous killer in the dark forces. No one knows his name, looks, whether he is a man or a woman, whether he is young or old, but every time he kills, he cuts the victim’s throat open. And left a jagged scar, which became his unique mark. Throat Slasher has been rampant for more than 20 years. There are no less than 30 nobles who died in his hands. Even a Knight was assassinated by Throat Slasher. Therefore, everyone thinks that Throat Slasher is also a Knight.

Several families have been hunting Throat Slasher, and it is said that the bounty on his head has exceeded 200,000 gold sols. Throat Slasher disappeared for a long time, didn't expect him to appear again to murder the marriage partner of Ludwig's family.

"My lord, our Pasico family is willing to help you find the main messenger behind the scenes." Tennes stroked his chest and said.

"Tennes is free to persuade Jacob, this child will not let go." The marquis nodded with relief, said: "Now, tell me about your visit to Centaur Hills. Right."

"Yes."

Tennes described his experience to Marquis Ludwig in detail.

After listening patiently to Tennes’s statement, the Marquis asked: "What have you gained from this visit to York’s house?"

Tennes thought about it carefully and said, "My lord, I have eroded the arrogance."

"It is good to remove the arrogance!" The marquis smiled with his palm. "Our court nobles are arrogant on the surface and humble in heart, and local lord, humble on the surface and humble in heart. Arrogance. We are the dogs raised by the Royal Family. We can bark and bite. The local lord is the wolf under the Royal Family, who can’t bark but can eat people. This is the difference between the two. You have succeeded with this awareness. Half, do you know what the other half is?"

"We also want to become wolves. Therefore, we have to help Wolf King to make it stronger. Only Wolf King gets more territory , We can become wolves." Tennes said with scorching eyes.

"Good! Good! Good! Tennes, I did not misunderstand you. In the future, your achievements will surpass me." Tennes' performance made the Marquis Ludwig applaud again and again.

"My lord, this is the direction I am striving for." Tennes bowed his head to greet him, and then he asked the Marquis: "My lord, do you think the York family will become a disaster for the kingdom?"

"The probability is very small. First of all, they have to face the attack of the ant colony. Even if a fortress is built at the entrance, a lot of materials will be consumed in each war. Secondly, the Centaur Hills has very little stone, and they can't build more. The castle controls the territory. Finally, the current strength of the York family is based on the Golden Knights, but the Golden Knights will eventually decline. Without Golden Knights, there are not enough castles, and they have to face the attack of Ant-Man. How could York's house become a disaster?" After the explanation, the Marquis looked at Tennes strangely. There was no reason why Tennes could not think of such a simple truth.

"Did you find anything?"

Tennes pondered for a moment, and said, "My lord, I found that the York family has very professional chefs. They have superb craftsmanship. The elite soldiers are even better than the most elite soldiers in the capital. This is a bit abnormal."

"This is nothing unusual. The York family has a thousand years of history. They used to belong to the Rand Empire together with the Augustus family. Lord, there are three such families Gambis, and the background of these Great Family is not what we palace nobles can imagine." Marquis Ludwig said enviously.

"By the way, is there anything to say about the territory of Viscount Victor?"

"Viscount Victor said that he would be loyal to the kingdom and become a barrier to the north of Centaur Hills." Tennes said weirdly.

"The barrier? Hehe, it's just a nail in the north of the York family, that is, to monitor the movement of the Viscount Solon." The marquis shook his head and said with a smile.

Tennes turned his eyes and decided not to tell the Secretary of the Interior that Victor has the silver rank strength.

"Your Excellency, Viscount Victor requested to pay in installments. Within one year, pay the annuity of 30,000 Kingsor. I promised him. If you feel embarrassed, I can advance the money first. "Tennes said nervously.

"This is just a small matter, you can make it yourself."
