Darkening Guardian Knight

If it weren't for the cooperation with Hoinstein and the new information obtained, I am afraid that even if we overcome this difficulty, we will fall into the trend of the world. "

Kate returned to the city of Hoinstein after dealing with domestic trivial matters, and shared information with the owner of Hoinstein.As a result, Kate benefited unilaterally.

"Information from the Hoinstein family indicates that there is a secretly assembled force that intends to trigger a world-class war and disrupt the order of the mainland. The reason for its actions is unknown... Presumably this is one of the four unknown forces."

Kate quickly connected the information together, and her thinking gradually became clear. "It is estimated that the force knows the most things, otherwise there is no need to induce war. So as long as they understand their purpose, they can basically solve the hidden mysteries of this world. Probably by then, the conditions for victory will also be known."

"I thought that the Solot Empire, which started the war, knew more about it. But according to Emperor Solot's words and deeds, it seems that he didn't even understand the essence of this challenge, so he started the war rashly. Probably this is also because he was instigated by the hidden organization."

Kate sighed, "Sure enough, in this world, intelligence is more important than war supplies... If you don't investigate clearly first, you may not even know who the real enemy is, and be used as a gun by others."

"But when it comes to information, I suddenly thought of a guy." While talking to herself, Kate's eyes suddenly lit up, "There is indeed a family in Shenguang Continent that is famous for information... Could it be that family is also among the four unknown forces?"

What Kate thought of was the Brown family where Assas belonged.

"Thinking about it this way, it is indeed very possible. In terms of background, the Brown family may not be qualified to be compared with the five great empires and the four major families, but in terms of information, their family will definitely not lose!"

Because of her friendship with Assas, Kate has a rough understanding of the boy's family, so she knows how powerful the Brown family is.

"The Ashe Empire doesn't need to take action immediately, it needs to wait for the opportunity, and I am also relieved that the Hoinstein family is watching. Just take advantage of this time to communicate with the Brown family."

Kate immediately planned the itinerary in her mind, "Anyway, try first, can I get their support... No matter how bad it is, at least I have to ask what kind of mysteries are hidden in this world!"

No.30 Brown Family in Six Sections

The Brown Family is located in the Naama Kingdom in the northwest of the Central Empire, near the border of the Ashe Empire.

Speaking of which, this kingdom is quite close to Hoinstein City, only a few cities away, which is exactly where the Ice Gate can be teleported.

As a subsidiary of the Central Empire, the Naama Kingdom is considered to be the upper middle class among all the kingdoms.But it has great strategic significance, and every military strategist knows it well.

Not for anything else, but for the Brown family in it!

This family, known for its intelligence capabilities, holds many hidden information channels in the world. From a certain point of view, the Brown family has the power to shake the world!

It is precisely because of this that Kate is determined to visit the Brown family and the chess player who controls the Brown family.

With the power of Nemosin, Kate was able to secretly enter the territory of the Central Empire.

Strictly speaking, this is smuggling, but she expected that even the Central Empire would not be able to control it so broadly.

What's more, with a ninth-level master by his side, it is difficult to be discovered after hiding his breath.

And the Naama Kingdom is just a small country that doesn't even have a ninth-level cultivator, and it is impossible to find his whereabouts. The only thing worth caring about is how strong the Brown family's intelligence capabilities are, and whether they can even do this little trick. Knowing everything?

Facts have proved that even the Brown family can't control the whereabouts of the ninth-level expert. After all, it is too difficult to find the trace of the ninth-level expert.

After all, level nine cultivators have various means of running, and it is almost impossible to fully grasp their itinerary.

"The Brown family plays an important role in the Naama Kingdom and enjoys a large piece of fiefdom. You can see their manor after walking along the border for a while." On the way, Nimosin introduced Kate.

"Well, I understand." Kate said, pacing leisurely as if walking in the country, "By the way...Mr. Nimoshin, although I don't mind walking a few steps, why don't you just set the exit of the Ice Gate at Brown's house?"

"Because they have tampered with the space coordinates of their own home, an ice magician like me who only has half-strength subspace power can't detect the real coordinates of that area. I think if you are a practitioner who specializes in space, probably It is possible to analyze the coordinates of their home." Nimoshyn said shamelessly.

"I see, the Brown family is very cautious." Kate nodded, and her evaluation of the Brown family was raised by another level, and she believed more and more that they were one of the four forces hiding in the dark. "It seems that we will definitely gain something this time."

"Yes, Your Lady Queen." Nimosyn said in admiration, "You are really exhaustive, and every step you take is of great significance."

"However, everything we are doing now is walking a tightrope, and may collapse at any time." Kate said heavily, "The strength of the Hoinstein family and the Ashe Empire is too weak compared to those first-line forces, so we have to be careful Plan and maneuver, and take every step well. Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to make it to the end of this world war, and you will be eliminated as cannon fodder.”

"But fortunately, we are not the only ones in such an embarrassing position. Powers like the Brown family and the Ford family also have the same problem."

Kate was very calm, calculating as she walked, "Our chance is to merge these weak forces together, give full play to their respective strengths, and struggle to survive in the early stages of the struggle."

"I believe in the eyes of the Patriarch... In short, everything is up to you, Her Majesty Queen." Nimosin's thoughts were very simple, "You will definitely lead the Ashe Empire and the Hoinstein family to glory, right?"

"From the conclusion, it is like this." Kate said.

"That's fine." Nimosyn said trustingly, "You and the Patriarch's ideas are elusive to me. But those ideas are indeed amazing, and they are worthy of my hopes."

"Thank you for your trust." Kate said humbly, "You are serious. In fact, many ideas are just used as smoke screens to prevent other forces from guessing what I want to do. The final result depends on luck."

She knew that even if everything went according to her plan, the Ashe Empire and the Hoinstein family would at most get tickets to participate in the end of the war.

She had a vague premonition that the road ahead would be even more difficult.

……

As Nimosin said, they were not far from the city where the Brown family was located. In just 10 minutes, Kate passed through Lindao and saw a corner of the Brown family estate.

"We're here." Seeing that Queen Ashe seemed to be still thinking, Nimosin couldn't help reminding.

"Oh, well, I know." Kate replied absent-mindedly, of course she knew that the Brown family was close at hand.

But the problem is that she hasn't figured out how to persuade Patriarch Brown at this time, so she feels a little uneasy.

It's not that she hasn't thought about this matter, but because this matter itself is difficult to calculate, she hasn't thought of a particularly suitable method after thinking about it for a long time.

Considering that the amount of intelligence possessed by the Brown family is definitely richer than the combination of the Ashe Empire and the Hoinstein family, it is definitely not acceptable to fool around at will, and must be honest.

The Hoinstein family is willing to join forces with themselves because the interests are the same, but the Brown family is different.

As a big family in the Central Empire, although it does not have the name of the four big families, it has the status of the four big families, and its strength cannot be underestimated——

Even if its hard power is not as good as the Ashe Empire and the Hoinstein family, its soft power can be proud of the mainland!

Moreover, the Brown family has grasped the handles of many forces. It uses this to travel among the major forces, earning a lot of benefits, and at the same time expanding various diplomatic channels.It can be described as advancing and attacking, retreating and defending, and the back road is spacious and bright.

In Kate's view, it is not known whether the Brown family can win to the end, but with its conditions, at least they are undefeated.

Stand undefeated! !

That's right, Kate has such a high opinion of the Brown family, and it is precisely because of this that she is troubled.

How should I convince the Brown family to help me?

No.30 Seven Section Brown Family

While Kate was thinking about it, Nimosin on the side suddenly touched her arm, warning solemnly: "My Lady Queen... It seems that we have been discovered."

"Huh? Didn't you use magic to hide your breath?" Kate frowned displeasedly, but this was beyond her calculations. Facing the Brown family in this unprepared state was not what she wanted to see Case.

"I'm sorry, Your Lady Queen. I did hide my breath and whereabouts, but the anti-reconnaissance ability over there seems to be superior to my concealment skills." Nimosin said depressed and helpless.

"Tsk, I just said that the Brown family doesn't have the means to track ninth-level practitioners, so I really underestimated them." Kate asked, "Is it irreparable?"

"It can't be helped. It seems that the Brown family has set up a perception magic circle nearby. As long as they are a little closer to the Brown family's manor, they will definitely be detected."

Nimosin shook his head, "Their countermeasures in this regard are very complete, and they even pay more attention to anti-reconnaissance than the four major families."

"Of course, after all, we are a family based on intelligence, how can we not even control the changes around the family?"

A hearty voice suddenly resounded in the ears of the two, but Kate and Nimoshin could not be shaken.

Kate said calmly: "Don't pretend to be mysterious, come out, the "bishop" of the Brown family. "

Saying so, an invisible ripple suddenly appeared in front of her, and the ripple quickly spread, drawing a space wormhole out of thin air.

This is similar to Nimosin's truth-level magic "Ice Gate".

Although it is not a space-based system, it has the ability to travel through space.

Then, from the space wormhole, a man in a tuxedo with a pot belly appeared. There was no doubt that he was the one who spoke just now!

When he saw Kate, he smiled politely and asked mockingly, "Why did the Queen of the Ashe Empire appear in this wilderness?"

"Hehe, Your Excellency is so humble. How could this place be a wilderness?" Although she was unprepared, Kate responded calmly. She said without smiling, "The Brown family must be shining brightly."

"Thank you, Queen Ashe." The man also raised his hand in salute, and said politely, "Brown is just a small family, so we can't afford such praise."

"No, this is the truth. The presence of a powerful person like you is the best proof." Kate said honestly, "I just came here with the mentality of giving it a try, but I never thought that the real strength of the Brown family is stronger than I imagined. Even if it is compared with the four major families, it will not be inferior."

"I'm really flattered to receive such an award." The man smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself, I'm Jean Brown, and I'm doing some chores at Brown's house."

""Miscellaneous chores"... whatever. Kate understood the deep meaning of his words, and smiled slightly, "Mr. Jean, as you know, I am Queen Ashe."I'm here to visit Patriarch Brown. "

"Ah, I really want to visit our Patriarch—but that's not possible!" Jean Brown's face suddenly darkened, and his face wrinkled like the face of a black goat, "The war between the Solot Empire and the Ashe Empire has ended It started. And it stands to reason that it will end soon, the Ashe Empire has been defeated, and there is no hope of winning. At this time, I will never let you drag the Brown family into the water!"

"I think you have misunderstood a little bit." Kate sighed and put on a disappointed face. "I thought the Brown family had super intelligence, and they should be proficient in intelligence analysis. Now, after looking at it, I realize that you are just pure intelligence. A businessman can't give full play to the value of the information in his hands, no wonder he was not included in the name of the four major families."

"What do you mean?" Jean Wenyan was not irritated, but his face softened a little, and he was a little more thoughtful and puzzled.

"You only saw the information that the Solot Empire captured the Ashe Empire, but not other information?" Kate asked tentatively when she saw this.

"Other aspects? Do you mean the cooperation between the Ashe Empire and the Hoinstein family, or the clean-up of some collaborating forces in the empire?"

"Well...there are all of them, but they are all inaccurate." Kate is not surprised that the Brown family will know the little tricks she did, but only she knows that those are actually smoke bombs she deliberately released. "First of all, you should understand the meaning of the alliance between the Ashe Empire and the Hoinstein family. The two huge groups have reached an agreement and work together. The power that can be exerted is not simply 1+1, but 1+1>2!"

"It's so exaggerated, is it that exaggerated?" Jean waved his hand, not believing Kate's words at all, "Do you think I am an ignorant child? 1+1 is 1+1, and resources and strength will not become more and stronger because of cooperation. You should stop talking about these high-sounding words."

"Superficial." Kate said angrily, "This is not only the integration of power, but also the integration of strategies!"

"Different plans will lead to different results. This principle is universal whether it is playing chess or fighting."

She continued, "The combination of the two forces can achieve many things that were impossible before, and the combination of many similar small things is enough to become a breaking point that can shake the war!

Although it's just from being unable to do it to being able to do it, the difference is terribly big-if it's you, you should understand what I mean, right?Owner Brown. "

Her eyes looked at the space wormhole behind Jean Brown that had not been closed for a long time.

It was as if something had been peeked out from the deep darkness.

Jean raised his eyebrows, pretending to be puzzled and replied: "Queen Ashe, the Patriarch is not here."

"No, you should have brought him here, right? Mr. Jean." Kate smiled and said confidently, "Stop pointlessly probing each other, Patriarch Brown. If you are still a qualified chess player, you shouldn't even I couldn’t understand what I just said.”

"Okay, it looks like I can't hide it any longer, Uncle Rang." Sure enough, a middle-aged man in a loose robe walked out of the black wormhole. He patted Rang on the shoulder and signaled for the next thing to him.

"As expected of the Queen of the Ashe Empire, you've probably seen through everything, right?" He looked into Kate's eyes with a ferocious aura, and there was a sharp knife hidden in his simple smile.

"Ah, I'm not that good." Kate replied calmly, and the momentum of the duel did not let her down in the slightest. "Since everyone is smart, why don't we have an open and honest chat!"

"What do you want to talk about?" Patriarch Brown asked warily.

Kate thought for a while and said, "There are many things I want to ask, but the ones I want to know most are those few questions—"

"a few questions?"

"Well, a few questions." Kate said seriously, "About tactics, enemies... and questions about the world."

No.30 Eight Section Brown Family

"Tactics, enemies, and the world..." Patriarch Brown murmured, raising the corners of his mouth unconsciously, "It's interesting, Queen Ashe, you seem to know something interesting."

"It's not just me, it is estimated that every "chess player" has unique information.After all, each faction has its own secrets, doesn't it? "

Kate said frankly and honestly, "Of course, I think you may know more than most "chess players". This is the unique strength of the Brown family, and it is also the reason why I came to visit you. "

"Since you made it so clear, you should be clear that I have no obligation to tell you the information I have, right?"

Patriarch Brown's expression was a little subtle, he didn't want to hear the boring compliments, "You are also a person who has stood on this stage, you can't be so naive as to think that you can be a white wolf with nothing, right?"

"Of course, but this is not a good place to talk about those things... Or, Mr. Brown, are you the type who likes to talk about serious things in the wild?" Kate said sarcastically.

In fact, at this time, she still hadn't conceived a way to persuade Patriarch Brown, and she used such rhetoric to delay time.

Patriarch Brown knew what Kate meant, and he was also a reasonable person, so he smiled and said, "It's because I didn't entertain you well, I'm sorry. What I said is true. After all, it's a business, and I have to go to a chat place that is suitable for the queen's status." .”

He turned to Jean Brown and said, "Uncle Jean, please take us to the family hall."

"Master Patriarch, is this appropriate?" Jean looked at Nimosin warily, "Anyway, the other party is also a strong man with a ninth level, if he is easily put into the family, if something happens, then..."

"Well, what Uncle Rang said makes sense." Patriarch Brown looked at Kate and said in embarrassment, "I'm really sorry, Queen Ashe, if you bring this powerful subordinate, I really don't have the confidence to bring you into our family.

Why don't we talk about things here - our family is not very good at other things, anti-reconnaissance is still possible, at least we can guarantee that we won't be eavesdropped by others - what do you think? "

"Is that why your family doesn't welcome me?" Kate pretended to be angry when she heard that Brown's family wanted to reject her.

"No, no, you misunderstood, Queen Ashe." Patriarch Brown waved his hands repeatedly and said, "After all, we are just a small family, unlike the four major families or imperial rulers like you, we have no confidence to protect ourselves, please Please forgive me... Otherwise, if you leave this strong man outside, our family will treat each other with courtesy."

"Tsk... What a clever and superb refusal skill. To reject me by claiming to be a small family, this Brown family seems to be more difficult than I imagined." Kate thought to herself, her mind was working quickly, thinking about countermeasures.

It was impossible for her to leave Nimosin. No matter from the perspective of war or chess, she could not enter the enemy camp alone without preparation.

This time is different from the trip of the Hoinstein family. The Hoinstein family and the Ashe Empire have the same interests, and there is not much room for choice, so Kate does not have to worry about her own safety.

However, the Brown family has the capital and potential to become a fool. They can completely tear down the bridge, control themselves, and order the Ashe Empire and the Hoinstein family to serve them;

Or sell yourself directly to the Solot Empire, earning profits and at the same time messing up the water in the mainland.

In short, no matter what, the Brown family will not lose money.
