Chapter 58: Surprise

() () ()

"Smack"

The door to the conference room was rudely pushed open, and a young steward of the Hilton family rushed in

Count Silvio was taken aback, and the count's face, who was already in a bad mood, sank, and reprimanded loudly: "'Every time there is a big event, there is calm, don't believe that there is no ancient sage today', how do I usually teach you, the more critical the time, the more you must maintain a calm mind, only in this way, can you find a way to break the situation in the predicament, panic when you encounter something, frizzy, what big things can you do?" ”

The young steward was frightened by the sudden outburst of the patriarch, and stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do

Count Silvio lost his temper, and his irritability was vented a lot, and he asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" Say"

The young steward's frightened soul had not yet fully returned to its place, and he couldn't remember it for a while, and finally he saw the note in his hand, and remembered what it meant: "Clan, patriarch, there is, there is the most information"

As he spoke, he handed the note out

The Earl was too lazy to pick it up, and tried to say in a flat tone: "Read it out"

The news received recently was not very pleasant, and when he heard the information, Count Silvio had habitually reached out and pinched his brow

The young steward finally came back to his senses, and said in an uplifting tone:

"Young Master Owen has sent urgent news: the caravan has defeated the four bandit leaders of the gray wolf, the cunning fox, the violent bear, and the rat king, and the trade route to Krakow County is basically opened."

"Oh~" Count Silvio couldn't help but be shocked and sat up straight, this is a rare piece of good news in recent times

The staff of the following stewards were also excited, and now everyone needed good news to boost morale

"I don't know if a few of the bandit leaders were repulsed or wounded, it would be great if we could kill them all"

The key to the matter of business is very clear to everyone here, that is, a few bandit leaders, and the reason why the bandit leaders are difficult to deal with is that they are strong, but if they play guerrilla warfare, if they only repel them, they can only exchange for a moment of peace, and when the caravan returns, they will have to face the attack of these bandits again

To put it more strictly speaking, if the caravan fails to kill or cause serious damage to several bandit leaders, such as the Flame Spray Canister, it is a failure, because these killer weapons only have a huge effect when they are used for the first time, and their effect will be greatly reduced when the opponent is on guard the next time

But in any case, it's better to win than to lose

With a wave of his hand, the Earl stopped the whispers of the people below, and said to the young steward who had told the news, "Keep reading."

"Yes," replied the young steward

“…… The caravan suddenly arrived at the outskirts of the Gray Wolf Village ahead of schedule, and Mr. Anthony alone captured more than 100 bandits who were arranging defenses......"

“…… Using the warning signal recovered from the bandits, the bandit leader Gray Wolf was lured to the rescue of Mr. Anthony and ambushed him halfway, wounding and capturing the Gray Wolf Mitchell......"

“…… The design introduces the three bandit leaders of Storm Bear, Cunning Fox, and Rat King into the underground secret room, and Mr. Anthony captures the three bandit leaders alive with one enemy and three......"

……

The expressions on the faces of everyone in the conference hall changed from excitement and surprise to shock and disbelief

Happiness came too suddenly, and the momentum was too fierce, and everyone felt a little unreal in ecstasy

Could this news be fake? Or maybe the young steward was dazzled and misunderstood?

The Earl, who "has calm in every major event", had just finished training others, and at this moment he couldn't care about anything, and he rushed to the young steward, snatched the note with his hand, and walked under the bright lamp to examine it carefully

The seal is correct, and the predetermined check code is intact

So, is the message true?

"Hahahaha" Count Silvio laughed as he looked up to the sky, and the depression and depression that had been going on for days all vanished at this moment

Seeing this, the stewards and staff below knew that the information was conclusive and unmistakable, and their doubts were gone, and all that was left was endless joy

"Hooray"

"God Bless Me Hilton Family"

"Anthony's worship is really brave, and he surrendered the four bandit leaders single-handedly"

"It's still the patriarch who is wise and discerning, and has found a peerless genius like Mr. Anthony"

Count Silvio stroked his beard with a big heart

These stewards are right, they have tried their best to "abduct" this sixteen-year-old boy who happened to meet in Hengling City back to the Hilton family, which is definitely the most correct choice in their lives

Not to mention the boy's inhuman demonic talent, the future development potential is just to open up such a business road that the entire city of Edinburgh covets, which is enough to show that the boy now has the strength to make people look at it

At the same time, it also proves the vision of the Earl

In the form of such a great gift

Everyone knows the great value of this business, and in the same way, everyone knows the hardships and dangers, and even the steward who made the suggestion at the beginning only held the idea of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and the right was to leave one more way back, one more choice, and one more hope

According to everyone's thoughts, the best outcome is to take advantage of the bandits' long-term peace and lax vigilance, and beat them by surprise, in exchange for a period of relatively safe business routes

Even if it is only a temporary removal of the threat of one or two bandits, reducing the danger of escorting the caravan, and winning the safe passage of three or four caravanserais, it can be considered a success

As for whether the business road will return to its original state in the future, the stewards have not thought about coping with the current crisis and surviving the current difficulties

When I heard that the first strong enemy, the gray wolf Mitchell, had reached the peak of the Silver Initial Rank, even if it was captured by Anthony, the stewards were pleasantly surprised, and they couldn't stop feeling apprehensive

The analysis and judgment of the enemy's situation made a big mistake

When they learned from the gray wolf that the Storm Bear had broken through the Silver Intermediate Rank, the stewards' expressions were already foggy

As for the news that the remaining two bandit leaders, the cunning fox and the rat king have both advanced to the silver realm, everyone has already heard the numbness

It doesn't matter anymore

Silver intermediate, silver intermediate

The difference between the first order is the difference between the heavens and the abyss

Although the young steward had already made it clear at the beginning that it was good news, everyone, including Count Silvio, began to be less excited about this "victory".

Could it be, a pyrrhic victory?

Even if Mr. Anthony has a dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, even if there is a hidden flame spray canister, a killer but a strong person of the silver intermediate level, even if he is not found in an ambush for a while, it is not impossible to fight his way out of the encirclement and escape safely

What was the point of such a victory if they had suffered a large number of casualties in exchange for the enemy's retreat, even if they had reached Krakow County and procured goods that were in high demand, how could they safely transport them back?

But the miraculous boy enshrined, once again created a miracle, and what he did was far better and more perfect than others imagined

He defeated the four bandit leaders and captured them alive

He controlled the four bandit leaders, and then all the bandits along the entire trade route

He completely opened up this trade road where many nobles and powerful people were helpless, and it was:

monopoly

From then on, Krakowshire's huge purchasing and sales market will be completely open to them, and the blockade and suppression of the Hilton family organized by the nobles of Edinburgh City will become a complete joke

While the Hilton staff members cheered wildly, they couldn't help but have questions in their hearts:

Facing four Silver Fighters, and one of them is a Silver Intermediate Rank, how did the young genius Anthony defeat them alive and firmly control them?

How did he do it?
