"Are you here?" Ulric turned his back to Leo and looked at a map of Pendor on the dim wall. The mountains, rivers and vegetation on it were all extremely detailed, and it was obvious that the artist's skills were extremely skillful.

Hearing Ulric's question, Leo was about to answer subconsciously: 'I'm here.'

However, Ulric turned around and said, "You did a good job this time. Umr is the deputy leader of the Griffin Knights. Once he is captured by us, for the entire Griffin Knights,

It's a huge blow to everyone.

But you must have realized that although the Snake Cult and the Griffin Knights have joined forces this time, their relationship is not that close. You just found the remnants of the Griffin Knights this time, but the Snake Cult people should

They are still hiding in the royal capital, so don’t be careless and try to find them in the shortest possible time and apprehend Kellis.”

"I was about to report to you," Leo said with a bit of a smile, "I just got the news that an elder of the Aike family claimed to have some information about the Snake Worship Cult. I was about to go back for interrogation.

Woolen cloth."

"Okay!" King Ulric clapped his hands subconsciously, looking particularly happy, "I'm going to Northern Xinjiang soon. I hope I can see your success when I come back!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty," Leo bowed and said, "Before you return in triumph, there will definitely be a major breakthrough in this case, and all the remnants of the Snake Worship Cult in the royal capital will be executed."

"Okay, Count Leo, when this case is concluded, I will naturally reward you heavily," King Ulric said, sitting on a chair on one side. The next moment, the large chair also creaked, "

Okay, you can leave."

After hearing this, Leo bowed slightly and left the palace. At this time, he was walking in the garden outside the palace. Leo looked at the lion guards guarding the palace. These lion guards were obviously elites, and the majority were ninth level.

, each one's Qi is particularly deep and terrifying. Different from the lion followers led by Leo before, the heads here are all wearing lightweight steel helmets decorated with red feathers. Not only are they good in defense, but more importantly, they are majestic.

It is very beautiful and complements the momentum of the Lion Realm Palace.

There are several figures in important positions not far away. They are lion knights up to the eleventh level. They are wearing cloaks, imposing plates, chest protectors and heavy armor, and the ones they wear on their heads are not the kind of giant ones used by ordinary lion knights.

The helmet is a helmet with a lion pattern, which is obviously a customized version for the royal palace.

Leo looked at such a majestic guard and secretly felt greedy in his heart!

Not to mention anything else, just such a group of guards guarding the palace, if they were pulled out, would be enough to easily defeat a small principality. The Kingdom of the Fierce Lion Realm still has a lot of heritage behind it.

He should work harder, Leo said secretly in his heart, as if he suddenly realized something, he had been a little drifting for a while, holding two sharp swords, the Ranger and the Lion Knight, and there were not many people in the entire capital who knew how to do it.

Confronting him made Leo feel a little elated. Seeing the strict guards of the palace at this time also made Leo alert.

Everything he has now is based on the two major rewards from King Ulric, and obviously, neither the Wind Ranger nor the Lion Knight can be in the hands of a real nobleman like him forever.

By the time King Ulric took everything back, he was still nothing more than a de facto baron who was made an earl.

How will he deal with himself then?

For a moment, Leo also thought a lot, and his eyes changed from the initial confusion to the determination now. It is fundamental to develop his own territory well, especially if he needs a strong force as a backing. If his family

The strength in his hand is strong enough. Even if he doesn't have the two trump cards he has now, he doesn't have to worry too much.

Leo thought, the previous confusion in his eyes gradually faded and turned into a faint determination. What is the fastest way to enrich his strength now?

Magic crystal!

After a chuckle, Leo returned to the Patrol Headquarters with Uncle Went, who was waiting far outside the palace, with a touch of expectation. At this time, many of the Patrollers were not surprised by Uncle Went.

, they all know that this person is the most trusted person by their patrol commander.

Of course, Leo had no intention of paying attention to the strange behavior of many of his subordinates, and went straight to find Bella. After all, what is the fastest way to get wealth at the moment? There is no doubt that a certain Marquis family whose home was confiscated is naturally the most outstanding one among the answers!

"Sir, you're back? How's it going? They didn't make things difficult for you at the meeting, right?" At this time, Bella saw Leo's good expression, breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile.

"Fortunately," Leo replied with a smile, "a few nobles expressed concern about this, but they had no intention of standing up for Marquis Ike. Everyone knew that Marquis Ike had an unclear relationship with the Griffin Knights.

Collusion, just pay some attention.

No one intends to forcefully stand up for Marquis Naike. The focus of this meeting is still on King Ulric's expedition. In order to deal with the threat presented by the Crow Realm this time, King Ulric plans to personally expedition and teach him a lesson.

The Duke of Aldemar."

"Your Majesty will go on an expedition in person?" Bella and Brown were all a little surprised. They did not expect that the changes in the northern border would alert King Ulric to go out in person. This was really beyond their expectations.

"By the way, sir, there are a few more messages about the Ike family's fiefdom. This morning, all the medium-sized cities in one of the Ike family's fiefdoms have been raided. Governor Fury Ike was captured on the spot, and Aike

However, the news about Eckburg, the castle of the Ke family, was leaked during the army mobilization process. When the army arrived, the entire castle was completely empty.

Among them were Ulan Aike, the second son of Marquis Eike, and some important members of the Ike family. Most of the Ike family's castle savings were also taken away, and the harvest was not big." Bella said simply, "Look at the direction, it should be

I want to go north to cross the Bingyu River and go to the Kingdom of Crowland.

Maybe they can just hit Duke Aldemar, but now that Duke Aldemar is gathering troops in the north, our troops don't dare to approach without authorization, and we only arrange to let the foundation of the Ike family escape."

"It's normal," Leo said, not too surprised. "The Ike family has been operating near Ekeburg for many years. The incident happened so suddenly that we can't block too much news. The Ike family is also an upper-class noble family in the kingdom. Why?

Maybe it's that easy to destroy.

But in the end, their vitality was severely damaged, and their influence in the kingdom was completely lost. As for the Kingdom of Crowland, it would be difficult for a newly defected noble to be taken seriously. Not to mention this, the residence of Marquis Ike was inspected.

How is it?"

"Sir, although the residence of Marquis Ike is just a part of his family in the royal capital, it is still a great gain." Bella said with a touch of joy on her face, and Leo was not included in this.

Surprised, after all, this is the royal capital, the center of power and the economic center of the Lion Realm. If you want to make trouble here, you can't do it without capital. "Sir, please come with me."

As Bella limped to the treasury on one side, no, to be precise, it should be the small courtyard outside the treasury. There were large bronze boxes here, with patrol-style

The small sheepskin note on one side reads "Ike Family". There is no doubt that this is the result of the confiscation of the Ike family.

"Sir, these haven't been put into storage yet. Please make your decision." Bella and Brown had a slight chuckle on their lips, and they shared a tacit smile with Leo. What do you mean?

If it is not stored in the treasury, it is naturally not registered. The Aike family is an ancient family and the upper-class nobles of the kingdom. Their wealth is so terrifying. Even if it is just a mansion in the royal capital, it is a number that cannot be underestimated.

"The money confiscated from the Ike family is astonishing, with a total of 365,421 dinars and 2,584 gold coins, with a total value of 623,000

Eight hundred and twenty-one dinars." Bella first revealed an astonishing number, which made Leo feel slightly shocked.

Good wealth. This is just the cash the Ike family has in the royal capital. It has more than 600,000 dinars. This is too exaggerated. After such a calculation, how exaggerated is the wealth of the entire Ike family?

?

However, looking at Bella and Brown's expressions, although they were also stunned, they did not look unbelievable. After all, this is the powerful Marquis family in the kingdom.

"In addition, there are two shops in the city center, a large oil refinery, and two large mansions, with a total value of about 160,000 dinars." Bella looked at the parchment in her hand and said again, "In addition, there are all kinds of rare treasures.

There are eighty-four pieces of exotic treasures and antiques, and according to the rough estimate of the treasure appraiser, the value is about one hundred thousand dinars."

Bella said in one breath that the harvest from this trip was really quite a lot, nearly nine hundred thousand dinars. The huge Ike family, even just the palace in the royal capital, has such amazing financial resources. It is worthy of being said.

The Marquis of Kingdom Power.

"Sir, what do you think?" Brown on the side said obviously looking forward to it.

"According to the previous patrol envoys, how would they usually arrange it?" Leo asked with a slight frown.

"This..." After hearing this, Brown and Bella glanced at each other subconsciously, looking a little surprised and a little surprised. They didn't know what the new patrolman meant? Could it be?

They are the king's spies. After all, they don't know Leo very well.

"Don't worry, I don't want to break everyone's rules," Leo said with a smile when he saw this situation. In the future, he will have to rely more on these patrollers. He will not always be the patroller, so naturally he will not take the initiative.

Rigidize everyone's rules.

As for being an upright and upright patrol envoy? I'm sorry, this does not exist for Leo, the evil nobleman who became a master in this life and exploited the common people of Pendor, although he has such an idea on the surface.
