"Brother Russ, won't you participate in this operation?"

"Yes, the young master still has a task over there. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Isn't Grandpa Evans not going to let the young master get involved in these things?"

"Sooner or later, he will take over the class of the elder, and I don't feel that he is a hopeless person when I get along with him."

"In other words, do you have to go?"

"No way, he's the heir to 'Casselro'."

"Okay, I see."

The young alchemist nodded, his eyes faintly looking at the man's distant back, his fists gradually clenched, and then relaxed, until the figure was completely hidden from his gaze, and then he exhaled faintly, staring at the letterhead in his hand uncertainly.

"Commander, do you really want to let him go?"

In the darkness, a figure walked out, and with the swaying of the torch, the whole figure was constantly changing, like an amorphous dark shadow.

"Yes." The alchemist rubbed his fingers and lit the letterhead in his hand, "Russ has been born and died for 'Thunder' since my father's time, and I am willing to believe him even if an informant reports that he has a secret relationship with Ivesky." ”

"And this operation?"

"As usual," the head of the 'Thunder' regiment made a decision, "I want to give him a chance, as a chance to prove myself." At all times, we 'Thunder' are the most powerful armed force in Ainiji other than the city guards, and we have the capital to make mistakes. ”

"Yes."

The black shadow dissipated like a mist blown by the wind, leaving only the mercenary leader with a childish look on his face alone with the fiery candles on the table.

"Don't let me down, Brother Russ."

Gently blowing out the fire candle on the table, the young mercenary leader stood up and walked slowly on the dark corridor, stepping on the soft place of his heart with every step.

Among the three leaders of "Thunder", Jie is the strangest one, among the mercenaries who talk about heroes by force, why a relatively powerless alchemist would become the leader of the mercenary group has always been the hottest topic in the mercenary circle of Aniji.

Some people say that the "Thunder" mercenary group is a family-run mercenary group through and through, while others say that it is because of the pressure exerted by the "Casero" Chamber of Commerce. However, only Jie himself knows that taking over as the head of the mercenary group is half because of his father's guilt and half because of his ability.

Jay's mother died because of Jay, and Jay, who had no talent, was thought to have defiled the blood of thunder, and his father's coldness and the attacks of the mercenaries made him never see his mother's bright eyes like stars in the sky after the age of five.

Because of this, Jay is precocious. Heaven did not give him invincible force, but gave him a clear mind. He was always the most far-sighted in dealing with affairs, and in the study of alchemy, his whimsical imagination always made the teacher sigh for the lack of his talents.

Childhood is gone, but the shadow of childhood will stay with him for the rest of his life.

He will never forget his mother's melancholy and bright eyes, and Russ's kind smile.

Those were the only two beams of light he had in his childhood.

So, don't let me down.

Raising his head, outside the door was the end of the road, and it was also a piece of light, but I don't know why, Jie always felt that this piece of light was a little dazzling.

For Eronica and Wiena, the action of "Thunder" is full of surprises.

They guessed that "Thunder" and "Casero" would seize the opportunity to carry out the operation, but they did not guess that the scale of the operation would be so large. "Thunder" is a medium-sized mercenary group, with a maximum of 50 people, with three small affiliated mercenary group places, with the financial resources of "Cacelo", these three small mercenary groups have always been full.

Now, Eronica and Vina can roughly estimate that there are about seventy mercenaries on the scene. Mercenaries are often injured on missions or training, which means that the participants of this operation of the "Thunder" mercenary group are likely to be ...... Full!

It was a crazy decision.

It's just a trivial matter that there is no one stationed in the mercenary group's station, and the mercenary itself is a prodigal son who is a family from all over the world, and few people will be interested in the mercenary group's station. However, the complicated relationship between "Thunder" and "Cacello" makes this decision seem crazy.

"Cacello" is the old Evans's single-handedness, and it has a strong sense of legend, so strong that most people forget the shortcomings of this young chamber of commerce - unlike other old powers, "Cacello" has no roots in Anigui, the pearl city of the south!

In response to this problem, the old Evans's response was to support the "Thunder", which was just an ordinary first-class mercenary group at the time, and used the mercenaries as a barrier to protect the Chamber of Commerce, so that the jackals and vultures who were eyeing "Cacello" in Anigi were in vain.

Now, decades of ups and downs have passed, and "Casselo" is no longer the small chamber of commerce that survived in the cracks of the powers, but the imprint of history is still clearly visible today. "Thunder" is still the strongest bulwark of "Cacelo", there is no one.

Perhaps in the past few decades, "Cacelo" has developed its own defense force of the Chamber of Commerce, but it is an indisputable fact that the focus has always been on "Thunder" and has not changed. In other words, the time after the departure of the "Thunder" from the city was the most vulnerable and dangerous period for the "Casselro".

"Thunder" and "Casero" take what to bet that no force dares to attack the Chamber of Commerce, and Eronica, who has only been here for a few days, does not know. She only had a bad feeling now, and it might be difficult for them to achieve their desired goals when they were caught in the competition between the two biggest forces in the region.

More than seventy people, which doesn't sound like much.

Of course, it doesn't look like much.

But when these seventy-odd people were all elite mercenaries whose combat power was comparable to that of the regular army, this number was almost close to the limit that a city could tolerate. Even if "Casero" and "Thunder" have a great say in the seats of the citizens' council, and even many citizen representatives speak for them, this cannot change the identity of the mercenary group as a private armed force in a sense!

Seventy is the number of people who will pose a threat to the safety of the city.

This kind of mobilization of numbers absolutely cannot conceal any force. In other words, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, all the forces in Aniji City will be in turmoil, and at worst, even the whole of Aniji will be plunged into a great turmoil.

This is not good news for Sword and Rose.

Moreover, as a "perfume beauty" who can challenge the hegemony of "Casselo", it is impossible not to know that "Thunder" is such a blatant transfer, how will it respond?

Could this be the beginning of a full-scale war between the two chambers of commerce?

It's not just Aronika who is worried about this problem, but the young Chamber of Commerce president is also worried about the abnormal transfer of "Thunder". It's just that as one of the parties involved, Ivesky, this kind of trouble is more of a helplessness.

"It's been put on the table." Ivesky put down his glass and looked into the distance without any look of chagrin on his face. On the contrary, he always kept a faint smile: "However, this style really doesn't look like the old guy's usual style." ”

"I'm sorry, President, but I was exposed."

"It's okay, it's something that has been foreseen for a long time." Ivesky's voice is not hurried, not light, not heavy, there is a sense of domination in the world, "When Fuzi comes to the stage, he will inevitably face the possibility of exposure." He paused and said: "I was careless, I didn't expect that this was just a game set up by "Thunder" and "Cacelro". ”

"Maybe it's still ......"

"It's too late." The president of the Chamber of Commerce gently took a sip of the bitter coffee in the cup, and then put it down casually, "When we received the news, the troops of the 'Thunder' had already left the city, and by the time the news reached the predetermined ambush location, I am afraid that the battle would have already broken out, and doing so would only shake everyone's will to fight." ”

"That'...... I ......"

"No, you don't." Ivesky looked at the man in front of him and waved his hand, "Although I was careful to let you join 'Thunder' in the first place, you still have a lot of friends there, so it's not a wise choice for you to appear on the same battlefield as them." Besides, even if all the combat power of the 'Perfume Beauty' is suppressed, it will be difficult to defeat the 'Thunder', and it is better to keep a little fire for the future than to defeat all the family capital here. ”

"I understand, thank you for your understanding."

"Russ." Ivesky pronounced out the man's name, "How long do you think it will take for Thunder to annihilate the ambush circle I have set up?" ”

He did not doubt that the "Thunder" would be able to annihilate the troops he had sent, all he asked about was how long they could sustain themselves

"Two or three suns."

"Then, Russ, go and deal with the elves who promised Romus." The young chamber of commerce president raised his forehead, "While the ambush circle we have set up is dragging them in the eastern suburbs, transfer the elves away, and their next target will definitely be the villa area in the southern suburbs." ”

"Yes."

Russ turned and walked away.

"I didn't expect to be counter-generalized, even after dealing with this incident, I would provoke the two behemoths of the 'Scarlet Rose' and the Speyer family." Ivesky half-leaned back in his office chair and muttered, "It seems that this time, I really made a bad move." ”

Russ didn't look back, even if it were, he could imagine that this usually breezy business pride must have exhaustion written on his face at this time.

I'm sorry.

He sincerely apologized in his heart.

This time, the operation fell into such an embarrassing situation entirely because the information he brought was unclear, and he was not alerted in time after his identity was revealed, and was used by the other party to convey crucial false information. turned the chamber of commerce's originally seamless ambush into a huge bait, giving "Thunder" and "Casselro" the opportunity to annihilate the chamber of commerce's vital forces.

What a big mistake.

originally wanted to try to repay the kindness that the Chamber of Commerce gave him at the beginning, but he didn't expect to put himself and the Chamber of Commerce in such a situation because of his carelessness.

Fists clenched.

What can be done now is to deal with the elves, strengthen the connection with Lord Rozka, and successfully open up new trade routes, so that even if you provoke the "Blood Rose" and the Speyer family, it is not unacceptable, after all, the Twelve Roads Lord in the commercial capital is not an easy person.

As long as the life of the heir is not endangered, I think the two forces will not start a war lightly.

Now that the decision has been made, there is no longer any need to hesitate. After a little hesitation, Russ's steps went from slow to fast, from vain to firm, and strode forward step by step.
