You let go of Annette's hand and let her go back to rest, then you stepped forward and pushed open the first door on the second floor of the guild on the right hand. The world is spinning, and I vaguely remember that it should be here.

It's up to you to decide which room you sleep in, and no one can set your beak. There are only three kinds of ends: being allowed to be allowed, being avoided by others, and being beaten out. Anyway, Annette bowed and left.

The room was pitch black, and the instructors in the back row had not yet returned. Lifting the black cover of the perpetual lamp, it was worthy of her room, full of books, with many knick-knacks and countless books that only a mage would use. It smells good.

You sit on the edge of the bed and wait for a while, but the owner of the room does not return for a long time, which is a little strange.

Tiredness hits,

Theoretically, you shouldn't be beaten out, so you lie down and rest.

·

I don't know how long later, the door of the room was gently pushed open, and a female voice asked in a slightly surprised voice, "...... Who's there?"

It's me.

Who else but me...... There are not many men in the entire guild, and there are no others who have the courage to trespass into the boudoir. Besides, wasn't it invited?

The woman pours a glass of water, lifts you up, and cools it down your throat.

You can see the other person's face - how can it be Tong Eun?

Tong En clenched your hand and whispered, "Lord, you are finally willing to respond to my wishes." ”

Well.

Hmm—what else can I say about that? Her eyes are full of love, and now it doesn't seem that she can settle it with a sentence of "I went into the wrong room", why do you push the wrong door when you drink? Tong En has no intention of letting you out at all. This has come to this,

Ask me how real the joke I told at the banquet is.

"It's mostly true. Human beings are creatures capable of basing their own happiness on the misfortunes of unrelated people. It's not the first time I've said this joke, and I've embellished it a little because it always makes people laugh. Although I am not a nobleman, but my family is wealthy, and my intelligence is far beyond that of the children of the same age around me, I was constantly changed by my parents at an early age, and the more I changed, I became more and more excellent, and at the age of five, I studied knowledge and all spells under the director of the Wang Li Library. It became a rare high-level profession prematurely, and I was really ...... at the time In retrospect, it was quite inflated and uninhabited. ”

"The principles of arcane and divine magic are very different, but there are very few people who can truly open their bows left and right like me, and completely separate the two sets of spell slots. A hundred spells, in fact, is not an exaggeration at all, and I was like all children who have been given a sharp blade - eager to try their hand at the knife. What happened later was just like the joke I told at the banquet, and I was surprised to find that my spell power and success rate were much lower than those of a mage or priest of the same level, and no matter how many types of spells I knew, I didn't have the opportunity to cast them one by one. In fact, I only had one or three cast chances, and maybe not even one if I was facing an archer. Heaven is fair, give me two spell slots, and you will give me only half the spell power. ”

Is there anything you don't know other than being chopped three times by a monster?

Tong En nodded.

"There is one piece of information that has not been confirmed, so I cannot officially report it to you. ”

"The guards of the ancient city are working on the formation of an army of marquises. The three forces were out of balance, the council was slow to reopen, and the guards and the market had a no-war agreement that had been used at the forefront until now, so they each reached out - the market took the opportunity to expand the trade route, aiming to install strong subordinates in the market management of "Cloud Splitting City" and "Five Alleys Bay", the former was not much of an obstacle as long as the plan was slowly and steadily advanced, but the latter was seamlessly inserted. Putting this aside, the ancient city guards also have their own plans - the western border of the marquis realm has not been peaceful recently, the remnants of the dungeon orcs have merged into a powerful clan, the northwest gnolls have gone completely crazy and are in full swing, and sooner or later they will be killed, and the warlord melee on the west side is said to have caused a lot of trouble. The Marquis intended and had to set up another army from the West, and this was the perfect time for the Ancient City Guard to reach out to the military. ”

"The council hall and the shrine belong to the two parallel lines of aristocracy and religion that are constantly intertwined and inseparable from the community of interests; the market and the dark street are like light and shadow inseparable, there is light, there must be shadow, which has been constant since ancient times; the guard and the army are the relationship of internal and external cooperation between the superior and the subordinate of the same body. So far, there has been no army in the vicinity of the ancient city, because it is not necessary to be located deep in the territory, so the guard is always a head short of the council hall, and now is the perfect time for the captain to send his henchmen to take charge of the new army. ”

The slave revolt was the last chance he needed. ”

"Once the insurrection is raging, the oppressed civilians and slaves will be unstoppable, and the rule of the Viscount of Polz will be greatly shaken. At least three forces will not let go of such an opportunity - the long-deflated law enforcement team will come to seek revenge and put Viscount Polz to death, Viscount Eliabes, who has been squeezed into the suburbs, will become the last straw that crushes the camel's back and take back his rightful treatment, and the guards of the ancient city will go here to "support" and suppress the uprising. ”

The Ancient City Guard will take advantage of this feats to formally apply to the Marquis to form a new army.

In other words, the Guardian of the Ancient City will become your enemies, killing your people in the name of quelling the rebellion in exchange for their own merits. The Ancient City Guardian is a good fighter, and at least it has fought a draw with the Dungeon Alliance.

Tong En thought for a moment, "If my estimate is correct—tomorrow at noon, the captain of the Ancient City Guard will come to see you in person." ”

Ha?

Why! Why did the enemy come to meet him?

"Of course, it's the kind of deal that talks about terms, and it's good for him and good for you. ”

I remember the Old City Guard once said that one day he might have a chance to cooperate with you. What should come will always come, and you can't hide from it. The battle has not yet begun, and the Ancient City Guard is not your enemy for the time being.

You suddenly remembered a story. It's actually a little joke just in case someone suddenly pushes you on stage to tell a joke......

There was a sparrow that was frozen into a popsicle in the cold of winter and fell headlong. I thought I was going to freeze to death, but a cow pulled a pile of cow dung on it and thawed it. In the cow dung, the sparrow was warm and happy, and could not help singing happily, and the song attracted a cat. The cat pulls the cow dung from the sparrow's body and eats it in one bite.

Sometimes it's not necessarily the enemy who on you, it's not necessarily the ally who pulls you out of a-like situation, and most importantly, don't run around when something good happens, hoping that no one will know.

slave revolt,

It's a big deal,

Big enough to completely change the situation in the bay of Five Lanes.

...... You don't know why Tong En knows so many things, so you ask bluntly.

"First of all, I have a good job on the adventurer's side, and on this basis, I am eager to be your help. Tong En looked into your eyes and said very seriously, "You shouldn't stop at the little baron, you shouldn't stop at the current scale of the adventurer's guild leader, I am here for this, and I have planned a plan for you." All you need to do is: a scramble. ”

Hathaway has repeatedly told you, "Don't die, it's important to live", but Tong En told you, "Don't give up the opportunity, you can only win if you fight".

To put it another way, the former means "as long as you shrink steadily and wait for others to make mistakes, you can kill others like the ancient city court, and others retreat is their own progress", while the latter actually means "Anyway, you are a genius, everything can be turned into a disaster, and the single-plank bridge is just that, and you can lead to glory by killing others".

...... This

Will there be a courtroom at Five Lanes Bay?

Tong En was stunned, and replied without hesitation: "Of course there is, and the person who is accused is you." ”

......

......

Tong En was silent when he noticed you, and he waved his fingers to count your charges: " First, mismanagement, which caused the adventurers to indirectly kill Ms. Sylvana, and Viscount Polz played the role of saving people in this matter; second, instigating the adventurers to attack the shark people under the armistice, causing a large-scale attack on the bay of the five lanes, and Viscount Polz was the hero of the fight against the monsters; third, he personally infiltrated and killed the market guards, disrupting the normal order of the market, and the Viscount of Poltz was only a legitimate defense; fourth, for the attack on the mine, although you actually saved it, no one witnessed any adventurers' guild members, but a large number of market guards witnessed you advancing down the cliff, and must have passed by the mine, but did not come forward; fifthViscount Polz has been under house arrest for many years, but if he had left a little evidence of guilt, he would have been killed by the law enforcement team, and you can only count on the villagers of Mermaid Village to defend you, and the sixth, and most importantly, fully support the slave revolt. He is a pitiful victim and a defender of the kingdom's order. ”

Belch......

"If you engage in the marquis's money bag, the marquis will definitely break your body into ten thousand pieces. The old marquis sent you in the hope that you would restore order and balance of power, not destroy everything. ”

You hold your forehead.

After a pause, Tong En continued: "Viscount Bolts originally wanted to give you the seventh crime: spreading the plague, but you went against the norm to blockade and control and treat the epidemic, which made him regret and had no chance to play on the topic. ”

Viscount Boltz had sat on this throne for too long, and he had sat extremely steadily, obscure the art of power. Unlike the guards and council chambers of the ancient city, there was no need to do anything reckless. He left no evidence of his crimes, and he rarely even committed crimes. Although I don't know how to put a village of mermaids under house arrest, since it has been under house arrest for so many years, it must be extremely safe and complete with all procedures, and the most ridiculous thing is that there was no half of the market guards or even the black street personnel in such a large-scale assassination last night. At that time, when we cleaned the battlefield and uncovered the corpses one by one, our hearts were cold, and we could not prove that it was Viscount Polz who instructed us this time. The repeated assassination of the Five Alleys Bay Guards was also carried out by the underworld forces, and "Blade Shield Mufeng" did not catch any evidence sufficient to prove that the mastermind behind the scenes was Viscount Polz.

At the end of the day, the market didn't make a move at all.

you

Suddenly, a picture appeared:

Just like when life and death were in the middle of the ancient city court, now it is no longer someone else, but yourself.

Why didn't Tong En stop you from sneaking into the market to die in the first place?" Tong En tilted his head and asked, "If we don't fight, how can we get the chance to promote the slave revolt? and how can we grasp the biggest lifeblood of Viscount Polz, a whole village of mermaids?"

Why didn't Tong En stop you from deciding to fully support the slave revolt in the first place?" "Ah, why did you stop it?" Tong En frowned, "If we don't support it, the slave revolt may fail, and this is our only chance to succeed." You can only tell if you kill Viscount Polz, can you?"

A typical thinking circuit of wealth and danger.

This has come to this,

If you do nothing, the situation will turn out – the slave revolt will completely burn down eighty or all of the market, and the anger of the people will put Viscount Polz to death in public. The Marquis's army has come to suppress it, and the rebel army has long been exhausted and has no purpose or meaning to fight the war again, and will be defeated or even surrendered directly, and the leaders and cadres of the rebel army, as well as you, will be tied to the court for "threatening the security of the kingdom".

If Viscount Polz is alive or resurrected, he will bite you to death in the Inquisition, and even if Viscount Polz never has a chance to speak again, the old Marquis's anger at the loss of his money bag and his disappointment in your use value will directly lead to the conviction of the crime.

Slave?

The law?

Maybe most of the rebels will eventually be acquitted, but it has nothing to do with you dead corpse.

terrified

In situ.

Before you know it, the situation has all tended to one direction like a hundred rivers converging in the sea, and the overall situation has basically been decided. The Inquisition will be opened for you.

It can't be said that a good hand of cards is bad or anything, from the very beginning Viscount of Polz came to find trouble, from the beginning of the adventurers got into trouble, from the beginning of the Five Alleys Bay for some historical reasons did not welcome adventurers, not to mention any good cards. What you need to do has not changed from the beginning: to fight your way out of death.

night

You don't feel anything else special about Tong Eun, she's just an ordinary woman who can't be more ordinary, admiring you. After she shut up, of course.

·

The next morning,

Unexpectedly, it's Annette waiting in front of your bed.

"Elizabeth seems to have something on her mind, and since she left the table suddenly last night, it didn't seem quite right. "Having said that, Annette is glad that she is finally here to serve you, and she doesn't care what is wrong with Elizabeth. And Tong En, of course, has long since disappeared, and it has become customary for the sleeper to wake up earlier than you.

Freshen up and get up,

When you see Hathaway, you tell her that a distant visitor will come to visit at noon today, and be ready to greet her.

"Far away?" Hathaway froze, "Could it be...... The "guards" of the ancient city?"

You nodded.

With a slap on the door, Hathaway suddenly realized that she had finally put together all the information fragments in recent days. She also began to see the direction of the situation and the ins and outs of the situation. During the lockdown period, Viscount Polz did not and did not make a move against the guild, and took the opportunity to raise not only the guild, but also the market. Before punching out, it is more powerful if you withdraw it first.

Blood is coming.

Oh no, oh bad—Hathaway solemnly commanded the maids to prepare for the visit of the captain of the ancient city guard, and went to Tong En to discuss countermeasures.

Although many things are not maneuverable until now. Only by doing it to the end can we fight a way out!

The veteran adventurers are resting, and the newly registered adventurers have taken the basic equipment of the guild pool and run to the sewers under their feet to defeat the nezumi and slimes. Inevitably, there will be rat people stationed in various towns, and the city walls can stop nothing from the rat people, and the slimes are deliberately stocked in the council hall to clean up the filth.

It's deserted, and there's no list on the mission bulletin board. The guild is no different from going out of business.

You enter the laundry across the street, which is filled with more laundry workers than expected, mostly strong men. Don't ask anything, these are the rebels.

Guided you into the underground chamber. Pushing open the door, the laundry owner and two exceptionally strong rebels, Raymond, and the front and back instructors were present, all around a table covered with maps.

There is no need for anyone to avoid you, and after saluting, they continue to discuss the uprising.

"This is the residence of Viscount Polz, and it is also the center of power of the shameless rule of the Turkish Emperor, his greatest weakness is the centralization of power, as long as we kill him, we will be tantamount to victory. Poltz believed in metaphysics such as Feng Shui, and the mansion is located at the intersection of the "five lanes", which is the most magical location, so there are five routes to the mansion. ”

"Five Alleys?"

"Here and here and so on five streets. Although it is not visible now, the entire town prospered a long time ago based on these five streets. This is the foundation, the main vein, and the key to victory. For this we must have at least three routes to attack the mansion, and if there are less than two, the forces will definitely not be enough to deal with Viscount Polz. ”

"Your rebel army has enough troops to attack five routes at once?"

"It's not enough, so you need to borrow the power of the guild. ”

Raymond and the two instructors look at you, and you nod. Since I said that I would "fully support" it, what is the matter with withdrawing the preamble now? This force, the guild out!

And

Your own life and death are at stake, and you will personally go into battle! You cannot entrust your neck to the hands of others.

What are you going to do?

A, all the combat power of the guild is concentrated on one route to maximize the survival of our personnel.

B, the guild's combat power is distributed on two routes, ensuring the maximum level of the Viscount of Portz's mansion.

C, disperse, minimize risk, inevitably someone sacrifices, but not too much, the guild will have the money to resurrect them all. In this way, you can minimize the loss you can afford due to a wrong decision in the future.

·

Which route will you enter in person?

1, Viscount Eliabes Villa as the starting point, passing through the official road, the last checkpoint is the defense of the town's gate, even if someone echoes inside and outside, it is quite difficult to break;

2. The starting point of the market guard inventory post in the canal is quickly stormed to the hinterland of the market under the river, and the last checkpoint is a large trade area, which is absolutely heavily guarded;

3. Starting from the civilian area, the alleys detour to the black streets, where the most loyal and strongest men gather, the most dangerous and shortest routes;

4. Starting from the bottom of the sea cliff, go up to the sea landscape light point, the first half of the terrain is dangerous and the second half is flat and wide, breaking through the fountain square is the residence of Viscount of Portz, and this route takes a long time;

5. From the coastline, the pirates were hit hard, and then they went up the official road all the way and entered through the main entrance of the market. Another task along the way is to attract firepower, not only to attack first with great fanfare, but also to not be defeated, otherwise the other four roads will face enemy attack.
