The rest of the journey was in the question and answer between Kraser and the elf Monica, and the caravan, which had been silent for a long time, was whispering, and set off again for the city of Tuscaloosa, which was not far away, but at this time, it had been a long time since Kreizer defeated the alliance between the madman Dawn and Keeley, during which many strange faces appeared in the city of Tuscaloosa, but due to the sudden heavy rain in the afternoon, they were all nested in the tavern in the city to inquire with each other tacitly, and similarly, Rolando Henry, who was taken away by Killy alone, had already arrived in Tuscaloosa ahead of Captain Leon and his party, waiting for their arrival like a hunting spider.

After returning to the main road to the city of Tuscaloosa, the speed of Captain Leon's group suddenly became much faster, and after a while, the huge city gate of Tuscaloosa appeared in everyone's sight, looking at the city gate that was almost close at hand and a team of guards standing outside the city gate, the heart in his throat was finally put back into his stomach by the Jersey leader, he looked at the cheering mercenaries and breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they entered this city, they didn't have to worry about it anymore, at least they didn't have to worry about being attacked in the city.

After glancing at the tired Fraser, the Jersey leader clapped his hands and urged Captain Lyon, who was also relieved. "Let's go, let's go, it's safe to enter the city, Leon, you know where to take them all!"

Apparently knowing what the first thing the Jersey leader was going to do after entering the city, Captain Lyon waved his hand to signal the latter to do what he was going to do. "Of course I know, you're busy, I can still do this!"

Captain Leon then waved his hand at the commotioning mercenaries, signaling them to focus on themselves. "Okay, after entering the city, everyone will come with me, our Shaquille Chamber of Commerce also has a partner hotel in Tuscaloosa, everyone can eat when you get there, you don't have to be polite, all expenses are responsible for our Shaquille Chamber of Commerce!"

In this way, under the command of Captain Leon, the team marched towards the city gate, and the leader of the Jersey team went alone to talk to a person who looked like a captain, and saw the latter quietly take a black money bag from his hand and pinch it, nodded with satisfaction, and waved his arm to several guards guarding the city gate, and in this way, Captain Leon and his party walked into the city gate unimpeded.

But when passing by the guards standing by the city gate, the guards talked to each other casually, and did not pay any attention to their group, just as the so-called speaker did not intend to listen to the listener's intention, but the content of their conversation was listened to by Captain Leon, and he involuntarily slowed down his steps.

"Hey, you saw that thunderstorm in the afternoon! It's terrifying!" the guard looked apprehensive.

"Who says it's not! It's already the end of autumn, why is there such a big thunderstorm, but I was patrolling the city in the afternoon, and I can see it much better than you, and the lightning is one after another, it's really terrifying!" Guard B also lowered his voice with palpitations.

"It's really bad weather, and a group of embarrassed mercenaries have just entered the city in the evening, and they are still muttering that the lightning just now was a magic released by a magician!"

"That's it, such an interesting joke, they also came up with it, and they haven't heard of any great mages coming to this Tuscaloosa City recently! If such a big man comes, our city lord would have already stood at the city gate to greet him!" Guard B echoed in agreement.

"That's right, isn't there a fat man in front of those beggar-like mercenaries! That fat man was personally picked up by the steward sent by the city lord! That's a big man!" the guard said.

"Hey, haven't you noticed that there have been a lot more mercenaries entering the city in the last two days, and they all seem to have accepted the same mission!" Soldier B asked curiously.

"You know, my wife works at the Feruther Tavern, and last night she told me that the mercenaries who had come into the city had been tasked with stealing an elf from Esenheim, and that they had come for it. Soldier A lowered his voice and boasted triumphantly.

"No wonder, tsk, it's unbelievable that an elf would dare to abduct an elf from Esenheim!"

"It's not! it's an elf...!" Soldier A was about to continue, but he noticed that it was Captain Leon who was almost standing still, and immediately shouted at him. "Hey, what are you doing!

"Two adults, what are you talking about elves?" Seeing that he had been discovered, Captain Leon scratched his head embarrassedly and asked honestly.

"Go, go, stay and go, Uncle Ben doesn't have time to take care of you, I want to know, you go and ask yourself, don't bother Uncle Ben, or I will arrest you and go to prison!" Soldier A waved the weapon in his hand impatiently like a fly.

Seeing this, Captain Leon hurriedly waved his hand to signal that he would leave immediately, but when he caught up with the group, he found that the tired Frazer was also looking at him, obviously he also heard the words of the two guards talking, and the smile on his face that was originally happily telling jokes with the elf Monica disappeared, replaced by a trace of worry.

"Don't worry, Wizard Krezer! Jersey's own future is at stake, and I believe he cares more than anyone else. Captain Lyon barely managed to squeeze an ugly smile out of his face.

"I hope so! Captain Leon has one thing I want to make clear first, I only accept the task of escorting the caravan, other things have nothing to do with me, and I don't want you to point fingers at me, if my matter causes any inconvenience to the caravan, I hope you can bring it up now, and I will leave the caravan immediately!" Looking at the reluctant smile on Captain Leon's face, Kreizer said after organizing the words.

"I understand what you mean, I'll know what to do when the time comes!" After hearing Krazer say this, Captain Leon took over the topic very familiarly, but his heart was not so calm.

But after only looking down and thinking for a while, Captain Leon grabbed the horse under him, quickly rushed to the front of the team, and shuttled through the city of Tuscaloosa, and it didn't take long for him to come to the hotel that established a cooperative relationship with the Shaquille Chamber of Commerce, and after preparing the room for everyone, Captain Leon commanded the mercenaries to deliver the goods to the warehouse in the backyard.

After continuous battles, the physically and mentally exhausted Krazer did not have the heart to enjoy the scenery of Tuscaloosa, but after a quick bite of food, he went to rest in the room assigned to him, leaving only a group of mercenaries in the hall who were discussing the afternoon battle fiercely. But Captain Leon didn't know what to say when he looked at Krezer's tired figure, so he sighed helplessly, gave a little command to the other mercenaries who remained in the hall, and then hurriedly walked out and disappeared into the night.

However, while Kraser dragged his tired body down on the soft bed to enjoy this rare moment of leisure, secret meetings were going on in various parts of Tuscaloosa. Tonight's Tuscaloosa is destined to be a sleepless night for many, not including Kraser, who falls asleep early.

In the city of Tuscaloosa, in a large castle, in a large room.

"Hahaha! I can't do it, I'm laughing to death, I really can't figure out how you can cooperate with this guy Diel, you really deserve to be unlucky!" A handsome man in a fine costume with a slender figure but a somewhat pale face, about thirty-five or sixteen years old, was smiling from ear to ear with his finger pointing at the fat man opposite.

"Alright! Alright, you've been smiling since you saw me, and you're not afraid to die laughing!" the fat man who retorted indignantly was none other than Frazer, who had met that Rolando Henry on the road. At this time, he was looking at his peers who were smiling non-stop on the other side with an embarrassed expression. "I came to you for a reason, I think about you when there are good things, don't you don't appreciate it, promise to give a happy word, do it or not!"

"Fart, you can't help but come to me, don't say it so nicely! I'm not that idiot from Diel, I don't have a door to talk about something, and I can tell people about big things. The middle-aged man in a fancy costume drank the golden liquid in the glass and put the glass on the table. "Say it! What's my benefit! If it weren't for it, I wouldn't be involved, you two fools abducting elves are already known in the imperial capital. ”

"Everyone knows, how could it be? You didn't scare me, did you?" the fat man Rolando, with a look of distrust, stretched out a fat hand. "Don't just drink it yourself, bring me a drink, don't you know that I really escaped death this time, in the end, if it weren't for Keely and that brute Dawn teaming up, my little life would have been left there, and I won't be in danger of killing me next time, hurry up and give me a drink." ”

"You don't know what this guy's nickname is, little trumpet Diel! I have heard about it when you set out from the imperial capital, at first I thought he was bragging, you know that he is a guy who listens to the wind and rain, but I didn't expect it! You will really join forces with that idiot. Hehe, the most surprising thing for me is that you two were able to succeed, which is really lucky. As he spoke, the young man in a fine costume refilled himself with a glass of wine and pushed the bottle towards the fat man Rolando opposite. "Tell me, what's my benefit? I'll hear your little story of escaping death later!"

"Become the next head of the family!" said the fat man Rolando after picking up the wine bottle he had pushed over, and after pouring himself a full glass again, he said categorically.

"What are you talking about? I don't have the patience to play with the two of you, I want to know what the point is!" Apparently the young man in a fancy costume did not believe the words of the fat man Rolando, and he pursed his lips disdainfully.

"I've got a prince, one of the strong contenders for the throne, and he wants me to be loyal to him by deeds, and we, the participants, will get a promise from him, that's all!" said the fat man Rolando, with a yearning expression.

"What promise?" Looking at Rolando's yearning look, the young man in a gorgeous costume couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I'll tell you if you promise to help me! I can only tell you now that this will be one of the most important choices of your life. Fat Rolando said with a temptation that refused to let go.

"You mean that His Majesty the Emperor is about to start choosing an heir, and we people are going to choose a supporter among these princes! How come I don't know this news!" The young man in his fine costume also calmed down, for all he could see in the latter's eyes was solemnity.

"Hehe! You have been sent to this ghost place to be the lord of the city, do you still expect to return to the imperial capital? Don't be naïve, not only has the battle for the throne begun, but the battle for our family is not a tragic battlefield? Outsiders only see our glamorous appearance, and we enjoy the privileges we are born with, but they don't know that once we people take a wrong step, we will be doomed, and we will not even have a chance to turn over. So I don't want to be dominated anymore, I'm going to take control of myself. The more the fat man Rolando spoke, the more excited he became, and he didn't even realize that the wine in the glass in his hand had spilled out. "So, I'm going to be the head of the house!

In the hoarse roar, the fat man Rolando pulled the collar that tightly bound his neck, drank the wine in the cup, and stared at the young man in the costume opposite with bloodshot eyes.

And the young man in a gorgeous costume looked at the fat man Rolando who was venting hysterically with half-squinted eyes, clenched his fists helplessly, and then let go, how could he not understand Rolandor Henry's mood at the moment, this kind of hopelessness and helplessness he had already experienced, and it was precisely because of this that he was sent to this city of Tuscaloosa, which was far away from the center of power. Although he is the lord of this town, in the eyes of others, it is really enviable that he can sit in this position at the age of less than forty, but he himself knows that although he has the title of city lord on his head that everyone envies, this is not the life he wants, he wants to return to the whirlpool of power that some people avoid, only there, you can understand what power is.

He knows that he is a person who is full of desire for power, which is his strength and his weakness, and it is precisely because of desire that people have the motivation to move forward!
