The scout who came was called William, and according to himself, he was a distant relative of a nobleman.

It seems to be very powerful, but seeing the shabby leather armor on the other party and the clothes that look very cheap at first glance, Link will never associate the nobleman with a high status and the guy in front of him who is better than a beggar.

Maybe what the other party said is true, but the relationship between the nobles and him is very distant, and it may even be just the result of an accident.

After all, the bloodline theory of the aristocracy is available in every world.

Maybe that nobleman didn't care about this so-called distant relative at all.

This scout, who talked about his so-called noble background as soon as he came up, when he saw the attitude of Lucy and the others who didn't care, Link could clearly see the other party's somewhat resentful expression, was he stimulated by such an attitude?

Link didn't care about it, this kind of little person is like this, he wants to use the power of others to add a little superiority to himself, and once someone doesn't care about the power of others, he feels like he has been insulted.

But then, Scout William unexpectedly put his resentment back and showed a smile: "Miss Lucy, as a pioneer knight, you need to tell me more about what happened yesterday, so that I can go back and make a difference." ”

"Oh? Was there anything yesterday? Lucy showed a nonchalant look, "It's just that a little wolf cub came and was beaten back." ”

A little wolf cub? William's cheeks twitched, and he didn't know what to say.

Last night it was so lively, and many people from dozens of miles away found out about the situation here, is this still a trivial matter?

William was a little hateful, if it weren't for the strong men in the knights who were ordered to leave suddenly, how could they only send someone in this morning, and they could only listen to the news from the other party's mouth?

However, William himself has a unique information channel, and he also knows a little bit about this order.

For the matter of catching a big fish of an orc, all the situations in the werewolf forest are not comparable together, so it is only natural to give up the situation here and go all out to catch the big fish.

Even William himself has no opinion on such a disposition.

Moreover, the date of the return of the Feathered Eagle Knights was just these two days, but such a thing happened today, which made him depressed.

But that's not what he's here for.

Routinely complete the task, anyway, what the other party says is what it is, and if something goes wrong, the knights themselves will find trouble, and they can do things according to the rules.

Then, it was the main reason why William grabbed this task and came here.

"Miss Lucy, I heard that you haven't been in contact with some nobles yet, have you?"

William sat down in his chair, rubbed his hands together on the table, "Do you know some of the unspoken rules of the Pioneer Knights?" ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Link's mouth, and finally, the other party finally said the topic.

This time, he didn't let people bring black tea, nor did he let him see any fine porcelain, Link just wanted to see if the other party and the Dahl last time were both here for one thing.

If it was for one thing, how would William react without receiving fine porcelain?

As for Dahl showing the porcelain to William, Link directly rejected this possibility in his heart, judging from the other party's such a treasure, it is obvious that it is a relatively expensive item in this world.

Wealth is not exposed, such a simple truth, the seemingly shrewd Dahl should not make such a mistake.

Then this William, without knowing anything about his own side, should have revealed his true intentions.

It won't be the same as that Dahl, after seeing that he gave away the porcelain without regret, a lot of things were held in his heart and not revealed a little.

After receiving Lucy's negative answer, William visibly smiled with joy: "Ah, that's a terrible thing, for these things, some of the high-ranking personnel of our Duchy of Seine, are well-known facts." ”

Then, in Lucy's pretended curiosity, William triumphantly repeated everything that Dahl had said, the only difference being that William said that the nobles were reluctant to make such a contract with the pioneer knights, because it would damage their majesty.

Therefore, in order to sign this extremely unequal treaty with him, the pioneer knight also needs to ask for all kinds of favors, ask others to be lobbyists for him, and beg the nobles to accept him as a "slave".

What Dahl said was that the nobles wanted to make a pact with the pioneer knights to gain more benefits for themselves.

The diametrically opposed dialogue made Link laugh out loud in the room.

Thanks to the excellent soundproofing of the room, his laughter would have been heard by William below.

But after laughing for a while, Link couldn't help but lower his laughter when he saw the serious look on William's face, until he finally put away his smile completely.

Because he thought about it carefully, he found that what the other party said was really and possibly true.

But what Dahl said is also true!

Two completely opposite words, but both true, then only because of one place where there is a disagreement.

Who they're talking to!

Dahl was given a porcelain cup indifferently, thinking that the Elemental Tower, which could send out valuable porcelain in an atmospheric manner, must be extremely strong, and there should be someone supporting it.

Therefore, he believes that the Elemental Tower has the strength to obtain the fruits of victory with a very small probability among the pioneer knights, and become a true nobleman.

Such a potential stock is what all nobles are willing to see, and the benefits of signing a treaty with it are almost all for nothing, so they are naturally very willing to take the initiative.

However, in William's opinion, the Elemental Tower is just an extremely ordinary small force, no different from some other pioneer knights, and it may be destroyed by the attack of werewolves at any time.

Such a partner, which will disappear at any time, is simply a bottomless pit for the nobles to avoid.

Investing in it is almost like throwing it into the sea, and maybe not a single bubble will rise.

Even if you get more verbal concessions from this kind of pioneer knight, and even give everything you have, you still need to put a part of it into the nobles, and your own harvest may be lost after the other party suddenly disappears.

So even if they were pestered to be other people's slaves, the nobles absolutely ignored them and turned around and left unceremoniously.

No one is willing to do anything that damages interests, and naturally the nobles will not be willing to do it.

So what William said is indeed true.
