Chapter 231 Chapter 23.1-C: The final puzzle of the future

·

You let go of Annette's hand and let her go back to rest. Then you stepped forward and opened the first door on the right hand side of the second floor of the guild. The world was spinning, and you vaguely remembered that it should be here.

Which room you sleep in is your choice, and no one can tell you. There are three consequences: being allowed, being hidden, or being beaten out. In any case, Annette bowed and left.

The room was dark, and the instructor in the back row had not returned yet. When she opened the black cover of the permanent lamp, it was indeed her room. It was full of books and was filled with many gadgets and countless books that only mages could use. Here are

A nice smell.

You sat by the bed and waited for a while, but the owner of the room still didn't return, which was a little strange.

Tiredness comes,

Theoretically, you shouldn't be beaten out, so you lie down and rest first.

·

After an unknown amount of time, the door to the room opened slightly, and a female voice asked in surprise: "...who is there?"

it's me.

Who else could it be but me... There are not many men in the entire guild, and no one else has the courage to enter the boudoir without permission. Besides, aren't you here by invitation?

The woman poured a glass of water, helped you up, and poured the cool water down your throat.

You saw the other person's face clearly - how could it be Tong En?

Tong En held your hand tightly and murmured in a low voice: "Mr. President, you are finally willing to respond to my feelings."

Um.

Hmm──What else can I say besides this? Her eyes are full of love, and it seems that it can't be settled by saying "I entered the wrong house". Why does she push the wrong door when she drinks? Tong En has no intention of letting you go.

Go out. That’s it.

Let me ask you how true the joke you just told at the banquet is.

"It's generally true. Human beings are creatures that can base their own happiness on the misfortunes of unrelated people. This is not the first time I've said this joke, because it always makes people laugh, so it's

I have slightly modified it. Although I am not a noble, I am from a wealthy family, and my intelligence is far superior to that of other children of the same age around me. My parents kept changing my mentors early on, and they became better and better. I was admitted to the Wangli Library when I was only five years old.

I learned knowledge and all spells under the curator. I prematurely became a rare high-level profession. At that time, I was really... looking back now, I was quite inflated and arrogant."

"The principles of arcane and divine spells are very different, but few people can truly draw left and right like me and calculate the two sets of spell slots completely separately. There are hundreds of spells. In fact, it is not an exaggeration at all. At that time, I was as good as all the others.

Like a child who has a sharp blade - eager to try it out. What happened next was just like the joke I told at the banquet. In actual combat, I was surprised to find that the power and success rate of my spells were much lower than those of mages or priests of the same level.

, and no matter how many types of spells I know, I have no chance to cast them one by one. In fact, I only have one to three opportunities to cast spells. If I face an archer, I may not even have one chance. God is fair and gives me two spells.

position, it will give me only half the power of the spell."

Besides being chopped into pieces by monsters three times, is there anything else you don’t know?

Tong En nodded.

"There is news that has not been confirmed, so I cannot officially report it to you."

"The guards of the ancient city are taking advantage of the opportunity to form the Marquis's army. The forces of the three families have been imbalanced, and the government hall has been unable to officially reopen. The guards and the market have a no-war agreement that has been used to this day, so they each reach out to the market - the market

Taking the opportunity to expand the trade route, it aims to place powerful subordinates in the market management of "Piyun City" and "Five Alley Bay". The former has little obstacle and can only advance the plan slowly and steadily, but the latter can be seamlessly inserted.

. Putting aside this matter, the ancient city guards also have their own plans - the western border of the Marquis Territory has not been peaceful recently. The remaining orcs in the underground city have merged to form a powerful clan. The gnolls in the northwest have gone completely crazy and are in full swing. Sooner or later, they will

Come over, the melee between the warlords in the west is said to have made the people miserable. The Marquis intends and must establish another army in the west. This is the perfect time for the ancient city guard to reach out to the military."

"The council hall and the temple belong to a community of interests in which two parallel lines of nobility and religion are constantly intertwined and inseparable; the market and the black street are like light and shadow inseparable. Where there is light, there must be shadow, which has been constant since ancient times; the guard and the army belong to the same team

The relationship between superiors and subordinates, internal and external cooperation. So far, no army has been set up near the ancient city. This is because it is not necessary because it is located deep inside the city. As a result, the guard team has always been shorter than the council hall. Now is the perfect time for the captain to send his own confidants to take charge of the new army. "

"The slave uprising is the last opportunity he needs."

"Once the uprising breaks out, the oppressed civilians and slaves will be unstoppable, and the rule of Viscount Boltz will also be greatly shaken. At least three forces will not let go of such an opportunity - the long-deflated law enforcement team

Will come to seek revenge and punish Viscount Boltz to death; Viscount Eliabes, who was squeezed to the suburbs, will become the last straw that breaks the camel's back and regain the treatment he deserves; the guards of the ancient city will go far away

Provide "support" here to suppress the uprising."

The Ancient City Guard will use such military exploits to formally apply to the Marquis to form a new army.

In other words, the Ancient City Guards will become your enemies, killing your people in the name of suppressing the rebellion in exchange for their own merits. The Ancient City Guards are quite capable, and they have at least won a draw with the underground city coalition forces.

Tong En thought for a while: "If my estimate is correct - at noon tomorrow, the captain of the ancient city guard will come to see you in person."

ha?

Why! Why did the enemy come to see me?

"Of course it's the kind of deal that benefits both him and you."

Remember that the Ancient City Guard once said that one day he might have the opportunity to cooperate with you. What is coming will always come, and there is no way to hide. The war has not started yet, so the Ancient City Guard is not your enemy yet.

You suddenly remembered a story. It was actually a little joke you just prepared just in case someone suddenly pushed you on stage to tell a joke...

There was a sparrow that was frozen into a popsicle in the cold winter and fell down. I thought it would freeze to death, but a cow pulled a pile of cow dung on it and thawed it. In the cow dung, the sparrow fell down again.

Warm and happy, I couldn't help but sing happily, and the song attracted a cat. The cat pulled the cow dung away from the sparrow and ate it in one bite.

Sometimes the person who shits on you is not necessarily your enemy, and the person who pulls you out of a shitty situation is not necessarily your ally. The most important thing is that when you encounter something good, don’t rush to tell each other that you wish you were gone.

People know.

slave revolt,

It's a big deal,

Big enough to completely change the situation in Wuxiang Bay.

...You didn't know why Tong En knew so many things, so you asked him directly.

"First of all, to clarify, I am also doing a good job with the adventurers. On this basis, I am eager to be your help." Tongen looked into your eyes and said very seriously, "You shouldn't stop at small things.

Little Baron, you should not stop being the leader of the Adventurer's Guild of today's scale. This is exactly why I am here, and I have planned a relevant plan for you. All you need to do is: a word of contention."

Hathaway has repeatedly told you, "Don't die, living is the most important thing", but Tong En tells you, "Don't give up the opportunity, only by fighting can you win."

To put it another way, the former means "as long as you stay calm and wait for others to make mistakes, you can kill others like an ancient city tribunal. The retreat of others is your own progress." The latter actually means "you are a genius anyway.

Everything can be saved, there is only one single-plank bridge, if you kill others you can lead to glory."

……this time,

Will there be a court of justice at Five Lanes Bay?

Tong En was stunned, and replied without hesitation: "Of course there will be, and you are the defendant."

…

…

Tong En noticed that you were silent immediately, counting your crimes with his fingers: "First, poor management, which caused the adventurer to indirectly kill Ms. Sylvana, and Viscount Boltz played a role in this matter.

Second, he encouraged adventurers to attack the Sharkfish people under the armistice treaty, causing a large-scale attack on Wuxiang Bay, but Viscount Boltz was the hero in fighting the monster; third, he personally sneaked in and attacked

By killing the market guards and disrupting the normal order of the market, Viscount Boltz was just acting in self-defense; fourth, for refusing to save the mine when it was attacked, although you actually saved it, there was no witness to seeing anyone from the Adventurer's Guild.

However, a large number of market guards witnessed you heading down the cliff. They must have passed by the mine, but they did not show up. Fifth, you abducted the sub-race citizens who were protected by the market without authorization and hid them. Viscount Boltz has been placed under house arrest for this matter.

They have been together for many years, but if anyone left any evidence of guilt, he would have been killed by the law enforcement team. He is absolutely innocent, and you can only count on the villagers of Mermaid Village to defend you; sixth, and most important is-

─Full support for the slave uprising. He is a pitiful victim and a defender of the order of the kingdom."

Well……

"If you take advantage of the Marquis's money bag, the Marquis will definitely cut you into pieces. When the old Marquis sent you, he hoped that you would restore order and balance of power, not destroy everything."

You hold your forehead.

After a pause, Tong En continued: "Viscount Boltz originally wanted to charge you with the seventh crime: spreading the plague, but you uncharacteristically went all out to block, control, and treat the epidemic, which made him regretful that he had no chance.

Make use of the topic."

Viscount Boltz has been sitting on this throne for too long, and he has sat very firmly, and has a profound knowledge of the art of power. Unlike the ancient city where the guards and the council were fighting each other, there was no need for him to do anything desperate. He did not stay

There is no evidence of any crime, and it is rare to even commit a crime. Although I don’t know how a village of mermaids were put under house arrest, since they have been under house arrest for so many years, the procedures must be extremely safe and complete. The most ridiculous thing is that there was not even half of such a large-scale assassination operation last night.

Market guards and even gangsters showed up. At that time, when we were cleaning the battlefield and uncovering the corpses one by one, our hearts went cold. There was no way to prove that Viscount Boltz had ordered this time. The same was true for the multiple assassinations of the Wuxiang Bay Guards.

With the help of the evil forces, "Blade Shield Mu Feng" did not capture any evidence that could prove that the mastermind behind the incident was Viscount Boltz.

In the end, the market didn't take action at all.

you,

Suddenly a picture appeared:

Just like when life and death were at stake in the ancient city court, now it is no longer others who feel guilty, but yourself.

Why didn't Tong En stop you from sneaking into the market to commit suicide? "Ah? Why did you stop it?" Tong En tilted his head and asked, "If we didn't fight for it, how could we seize the opportunity to promote the slave uprising? How could we seize it?
To be continued...
