Renard soon gets the news he wants that there is a demon in the Ambrizette Mountains.

At the same time, he also got a lot of bad news, a lot of demons, and a lot of high-level demons.

Last night, the adventurers of the mountain returned to Siye Village in twos and threes, and when they went, they were in high spirits, and when they came back, they were very depressed, some were covered in blood, and some were missing arms and legs.

However, they were lucky enough to come back alive, and most of the others remained there forever.

It can be reduced to the rations of monsters, or turned into fertilizer to nourish flowers and plants.

News of the demon's appearance in the Ambrizette Mountains spread quickly throughout the Great Southern Wilderness and continued to spread elsewhere.

Immediately afterwards, news also came from other places, and it seemed that the figure of the demon had also been found.

All of a sudden, Arthur's kingdom was almost in a state of emergency readiness, and as a lesson from the last time, people began to hoard food and buy weapons for self-defense, which caused the prices of food and weapons to continue to soar.

The tension lasted for about two weeks, and it was gradually discovered that the number of demons did not continue to increase, but soon disappeared completely as the slaughter of adventurers and local lords decreased dramatically.

According to incomplete statistics, there are 300,000 demons killed in various places, compared with the terrifying demon disaster more than 20 years ago, this can only be regarded as a small demon tide that is not too serious, so it has slowly become a topic of conversation after people's tea and dinner.

Life is all the rage in the tavern, or envy how much money an adventurer gets for killing a certain demon, or ridiculing someone who spends a lot of money to hoard food, but there is one person who doesn't fit in with the bustle around him.

Renard felt that things were not so simple, the sudden appearance of the demon and then the sudden disappearance of the demon revealed a strange atmosphere.

Many of the stronger mercenary groups also sensed that something was wrong, and they no longer went out to carry out their tasks, and the movements of the military headquarters were also very secretive, and the troops began to shrink their defensive lines and move closer to the major cities, and the city of Fertility ushered in six cavalry squadrons.

Of course, this has little to do with Renard, all he can do now is to improve his strength, make money, and save his own life.

In the blink of an eye, the weather began to gradually warm up, and the cold weather that lasted for a long time finally said goodbye to people, and the sun in the sky regained its strength, and the warm sun shone on the land.

What was once covered with snow has become a river paradise, and people come out of their houses as if thawed and begin their toil.

Although the road was a little muddy, the adventurers continued to make their way towards the Ambrizette Mountains, and the southern wilderness, which had been silent for months, was once again lively.

However, not everyone's mood was as warm as the midday sun, and Brad, the tax collector of the City of Plenty, walked into the town hall with a gloomy face that could drip water, and those who tried to slap him on the back on the road were all scolded by him.

As soon as he reached the second floor, he heard a beautiful voice coming from the office, and he was so angry that he was about to kick the office door open, and then his roar could be heard throughout the town hall: "James, you stupid pig." ”

The smile on James's face disappeared instantly, and he was replaced by a look of horror and horror: "Uncle?"

The tax collector Brad did not speak, he glanced at the two beautiful young women with a gloomy face, and the other immediately ran out with small steps of interest.

When James saw his uncle's gloomy appearance, his right eyelid immediately jumped wildly: "Uncle, listen to my explanation." ”

Explanation: The tax officer's face suddenly turned hideous, he closed the door, walked to the sofa and grabbed the other party's neck: "You waste, if you can have my three points of shrewdness, you are now half the master of the city of plenty." ”

Although James is mediocre in appearance, he has the advantage of being close to the water, and if he really attacks Miss Heidi, there is no chance of success.

After all, Miss Heidi is the only daughter of the lord and the only legitimate heir to the city of plenty, and for the sake of the family's inheritance, it is unlikely that the earl will let her marry other nobles, otherwise the consequences of being annexed will not be avoided.

Therefore, the loyal people of the family became the best choice for marriage, and at least the future of the territory was still under the control of the Meredith family.

Brad felt that his nephew had many conditions for success, and with his own incorruptible tongue and the lord's stupid brain, as long as Miss Heidi had the slightest affection for him, things would not have fallen to this point.

However, his nephew is simply a mud that can't support the wall, look at what he does, eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, smoking, and all kinds of poisons.

And to dare to be so presumptuous in the town hall, Miss Heidi is simply blind to have a good impression of him.

Brad trembled with anger and pointed at James and scolded, "What a stupid pig." ”

James felt very aggrieved: "You let me pursue Miss Heidi, she ignored me, and you are not supporting His Excellency Senior, how dare I fight with him." ”

Brad laughed out loud at the other party, and he would not have introduced Miss Heidi to Senior, and his nephew actually used it as an excuse.

When James saw his uncle's angry and retortious appearance, he was terrified, and couldn't help asking, "Uncle, is there no other way, just watch your hard work be ruined?"

Yes! More than 10 years of planning!

Brad made two preparations, first having his nephew pursue Miss Heidi.

His ambition is actually not big, but he hopes that he can have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life, and if his nephew can really become Miss Heidi's husband, then the other party will not liquidate his previous ugly deeds after he takes the throne.

Secondly, it is to promote his grandson Charles to the throne.

After all, he is his own grandson, and he has a deep relationship with himself, it would be great if he could take the throne, and he couldn't help but have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life, maybe he could go a few steps further, at least as a lifelong nobleman.

Nobleman, that was his life's goal.

However, none of these plans came to fruition, and the perfect plan he had laid out was completely destroyed, and the initiator was only a hillbilly from a barren land.

Of course, this waste nephew is indispensable to add fuel to the fire, and instead of helping, the other party makes Miss Heidi more and more disgusted with herself.

The more Brad thought about it, the more angry he became, and then he looked at his nephew's submissive appearance, he was so angry that he raised his hand and gave the other party two slaps, and roared at him: "Why can't you work hard?"

Then he raised his leg and kicked it on the sofa, but even turned over with the sofa: "Don't put all your thoughts on playing with women, if I find out again, I will break your legs." ”

Brad vented for a long time before leaving the office in anger.
