That night, many captured adventurers, assassins, and spies were specially teleported back to the Gulf Territory.

The experienced old John took matters into his own hands this time and interrogated them thoroughly.

With Matthew's full support, these adventurers, who had not received much attention, quickly revealed everything they knew.

Elio, who was observing from the side, looked complicated. After seeing Old John wash his hands and come out, he asked hesitantly:

"If the other side is really planning to take action against us, will the lord directly start a war?"

War, a very scary word!

Thinking of the family she had fled from her hometown, Elio couldn't help but feel a little silent.

With a disdainful sneer on his face, Old John was full of confidence and answered in the words that the lord often said:

"If they really dare to take action, you can give them a thumbs up."

"It is absolutely impossible to start a war with such a disgusting little trick."

"Under the rules of the Netheril Empire, nobles cannot fight directly with each other unless two big families try to fight to the death!"

"Just report this information to the lord. The lord will make his own decision. We cannot make the decision for the lord."

Feili beside her blinked slightly, unable to bear to look at those wailing and screaming idiots.

She was just about to open her mouth to comfort Elio, but she found that the latter's face gradually became firmer.

"In order to defend my territory and my homeland, even if they launch a war, I will not be afraid!"

It was after arriving in the Gulf Territory that Elio finally understood.

Fear is useless, and defending her homeland with like-minded people is the path she pursues.

The care from the Gulf Territory, the gradually growing future, and the hope of a stable and happy life are the motivation that urges Elio to train hard and become stronger!

Feili never expected that before she even opened her mouth, Alio had already stepped out of the shackles of her thoughts.

"Okay, take this information and come with me to report to the lord!"

"Unfortunately, we usually think that we have done a good job, but we didn't expect that there were so many loopholes."

When Old John said this, he gritted his teeth viciously.

His relatives and family members are rushing to the Gulf Territory, and their determination to deal with the enemy is naturally extremely strong.

The two girls followed Old John into the lord's mansion.

They could vaguely feel that the captain must have other ideas and purposes when he took them to meet with the lord.

Since moving in here, Matthew has not made any major modifications or expansions to the rather spacious Lord's Mansion.

It only took a certain amount of materials and time to reinforce the surface building of the Lord's Mansion.

Make sure that it will not be attacked by something similar to "Fireball" and be easily destroyed.

Many places in the Lord's Mansion are equipped with magic circles and traps for reconnaissance, alarm, and enemy trapping.

The matching of personnel is also essential.

More than 50 heavy armored infantry and 50 personal guards will patrol the lord's mansion in three shifts.

Elio, who saw all this, didn't notice any clues.

On the contrary, Feili, who knew the life of aristocrats and spellcasters, was quite surprised by the "simple" layout of the lord's mansion.

"Lord, do you not care about enjoyment so much? Or do you use all your money to develop your territory and improve your strength?"

"But even so, isn't it too inconsistent with his identity?"

"..."

Just when Feili was thinking wildly, Old John suddenly stopped.

A small group of heavily armored soldiers came over and checked their identities.

This is already the third inspection!

Feili had another idea in her mind:

"The Lord takes his own safety very seriously..."

"I wonder where the Arcanist lives?"

Just when she was thinking wildly, a faint smell came from the side.

A group of soldiers was transporting more than 50 troll captives and slowly left from the side door of the lord's mansion.

Both Elio and Feili could clearly feel that there seemed to be something wrong with the mental state of these incredibly strong and healthy trolls.

Seemingly aware of their doubts, Old John turned his head slightly and whispered:

"Have you seen those trolls? They usually not only accompany the soldiers in training, but also participate in the experiments of the lord and the arcanist."

The Arcanist's Experiment!

This kind of scary topic immediately dispelled the curiosity of the two of them, and they looked at the trolls with a little bit of complexity.

Arriving at the conference room again, Alio and Feili subconsciously slowed down their steps.

The tall lord, with his back to them, was attacking a clay golem that was a head shorter than him.

Old John stood quietly, as if he didn't want to disturb the lord.

The latter had already noticed their arrival and turned around with a smile:

"You have been busy all day, should you be tired now?"

"Sit down first and talk about anything slowly."

Seeing that the Lord sat down first, Old John slowly sat down and handed over the parchment on which the information was written:

"Their origins have been confirmed, and they are mainly divided into two groups."

"One group is people who specialize in seeking information."

"They were arranged by the Pfizer Chamber of Commerce to try to bribe other people and obtain confidential information in our territory."

"The other group is Viscount Carlisle from Blood Moon City."

"The purpose of these people he sent here is to disrupt our territory and find opportunities to destroy various facilities and factories."

Looking through the "confession" carefully, Matthew could smell the smell of blood between the lines. He was sure that John had obviously spent a lot of effort to obtain this information.

Let’s not mention the Pfizer Chamber of Commerce for now.

They did not attack directly, and Matthew had no intention of killing them now.

Matthew felt quite familiar with Viscount Carlisle of Blood Moon City.

The Carlisle family is one of the three major families in Bloodmoon City.

It has been passed down for hundreds of years and became famous due to its investment in developing the ruins of Blood Moon City. It is powerful and has many tribesmen.

In fact, Matthew has had interactions with the Carlisle family.

Sweetwater Town, which was destroyed by the black dragon, and the unlucky Baron Carlisle are members of the Carlisle family.

It is obvious that the Carlisle family is interested in the ruins.

Their reasons are also very simple.

This ruins is located at the junction of the Gulf Territory and the Sweetwater Township Territory, and both sides have the right to develop it.

Matthew temporarily put down the information and looked at Feili and Elio behind Old John who were very curious about the clay golem.

A level 4 ranger.

A level 8 swordsman.

The potential and combat effectiveness are enough.

Matthew still had to make adjustments and modifications to the clay golem. He didn’t want to waste time and got straight to the point:

"In order to deal with these infiltrated enemies, I hope to form an inspection team with you as the leader."

"You can choose your own people, the number is tentatively set at 100 people."

"Your mission is very simple, but very important. Find out the infiltrating enemies, capture most of them, focus on the high-value parts, and jointly defend the territory."
