Brando smiled: ...... You can't escape now, but you won't have to

The nascent territory is about to go through its most difficult period, and at this moment, the four golden powers, including himself, are his most important support, and Brando understands that relying on his knowledge of this world, he may not worry about the talents under his command in the future, but now is not the time to squander and waste a curlan pressed his sword with one hand, but then let go. The old man faintly sensed that the young man was moved by his own mentions, otherwise he would not have said so much to himself.

He asked quietly, "In that case, what do you think should be done?" ”

Brando groaned for a moment and said, "What is the name of the clerk in the mining area?" ”

Curran was stunned, not keeping up with the speed of this leap of thought. He didn't understand why the topic was on the aristocratic clerk, but he replied, "Oakins." ”

"That Ogkins of the West Covel family?"

"You know him?" Curlan's eyes narrowed, and he instinctively sniffed out the identity of the other party, this should be a young nobleman, after all, ordinary people would not know the genealogy of nobles so clearly.

Just like the well-informed people of the royal capital may know the names of those noble lords above their heads, but when they leave Corcova, they may not know what nobles are in other provinces.

However, Aukins was the nephew of the Countess Jean Denel, and belonged to the Grudin's class in the province of Jean Denel, and it was certainly impossible for Brando not to have heard of it. What's more, although the other party is not very famous in this generation, when the old nobles gradually grow old and pass away, players will have to deal with these young nobles.

Brando remembered that this guy was later the lord of the Silman region, but he didn't expect that he was now working as a clerk in the Shavrund mines. He immediately realized that the silver mine was the heart of Count Denel, and perhaps it was from here that he began to gain the Count's trust.

He slandered in his heart, thinking that this kid's good future was probably going to be ruined by his actions. However, in the spirit of the dead friend who does not die in the poor way, he can only say "SSsorry" in his heart.

"I've heard he's a decent guy." Brando asked, knocking sideways.

"That's a really nice assessment," Kuran raised his eyebrows, "it's better to be cowardly and mediocre and incompetent." He sneered unceremoniously, and the fact that Ogkins had broken off one of his subordinates still haunted the old man: "You nobles just like to talk about it." ”

After saying that, he also glanced at Brando defiantly.

Brando didn't care about the old man's temptation, but secretly wondered in his heart that, according to Curlan's evaluation of that Ogkins and his own understanding of the other party, the young scribe would probably do everything possible to suppress the riots in the mines for the sake of his own future.

And in this way, they have a lot of time to find a way to the ground, and whether or not this year-old sword master leads the way will not actually have any effect on his plans.

But he looked at Kuran and had a thought in his mind. Of course, he didn't want a golden power to return to Jean Denel, but how to keep the other party was a problem.

Looking at Curlan's cousin, it doesn't necessarily mean that Count Denel is dead set on making them worse, or he wouldn't have negotiated terms with them here. However, it can be seen that this old man still has some chivalrous demeanor, and it is estimated that it will not be too easy for him to surrender, especially when he does not have much strength himself.

But Brando thought about it for a moment, and he had a plan in his mind.

He replied, "Then please ask the old gentleman to come back to Fir City with us for the time being." After this period of time, it will be as short as a month, or as long as half a year, "I will naturally let you go back." ”

In Fir City, he naturally didn't mind splitting one or two golden forces to guard this sword master.

"Half a year?" Curran's eyes narrowed: "If I don't show up in the mine for a long time, it will arouse suspicion, don't you worry about the leak of the news?" ”

Brando thought to himself that this dead old man was really cunning, but fortunately he had already thought about it: "It's okay, you were seriously injured in the earthquake, didn't you?" Naturally, it takes a while to recuperate, I think Ogkins will understand."

He deliberately accentuated the phrase "Okins will understand, this one."

Curran snorted with a sneer, he naturally knew that the bookkeeper would understand, if he didn't understand that this young man would naturally use his sword to make him understand that the other party was not a hard bone, he could imagine that as long as Brando threatened the soft bones, the bookkeeper would probably cry bitterly and act as their mouthpiece.

The old man fell silent.

"Looks like you've made up your mind, but how can I be sure I'll leave in a month or half a year?" He asked again.

"Why should I promise you?" Brando asked rhetorically.

Curran choked, raised his silver-gray eyebrows and angrily survived the other party.

"But since I'm letting you go to Fir City" as long as you don't act rashly, at least I won't do anything else. Brando replied, "Don't make senseless sacrifices, you're a veteran of the November War, aren't you?" Life is precious, and the winner in the war is the last person to survive."

The old man snorted, "You know very well that there are remnants of the war among your elders?" ”

Brando didn't answer, "Just looking at each other."

The old man's gaze swept over the ring on Brando's hand, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "Look at what you have done" Is it intended to stay here for a long time. But I must warn you that it is impossible for Count Denel to tolerate the division of a territory from his control: "Even the most barren of Toniguel, are you ready for the thunderous wrath of one, the king?" ”

In addition to the province of Corcova, Eruin was actually controlled by thirteen princes, including six dukes, two marquises, and five privileged counts, whose power was comparable to that of the royal family, and was therefore nicknamed by the people, the king under the throne.

These, the king, in addition to the three strongest dukes Anlek, Vieiro and Siphah, most of the other strengths are among the best, so that although the Count of Denel is not strong in this ranks, he is not the second.

To confront such a force head-on, in Curlan's eyes, Brando and the others are like little ants challenging giants, and they may be crushed at any time.

But Brando smiled when he heard this, shook his head, and said, "You got two things wrong. First, I knew from the beginning what Count Denel would do; Second, Toniguel is not in fact the most barren. ”

Curran looked at him deeply: "Self-confidence is good, but arrogance is not necessarily, young man. ”

"I agree." Brando replied.

"Well, whatever you think." When the old man saw that persuasion was ineffective, he shook his head and stopped mentioning it. His hand pressed on his sword again: "I still want a guarantee, promise that after at least half a year, you will let me go." ”

"You promise not to return to Count Jean Denel?"

"Sorry, I can't guarantee that." Curran replied categorically.

Brando glanced at the other party with appreciation, but this time he didn't refuse, but smiled and said, "Okay, I promise." It doesn't take half a year, it only takes three months. ”

The old man was slightly stunned, raised his head and looked at him in surprise.

Brando smiled, not explaining.

After reaching an agreement, Medisa also rested, and she felt that her soul fire was starting to come alive again, so the group continued on their way.

At this time, Brando glanced at the miner behind him, and in fact after learning that Brando and Akane were not members of the mine guard but were traitors, and that they were going to oppose Count Jean Denel, the poor fellow was so frightened that he almost wanted to run away.

But he soon calmed down, because Inochi was thinking about the future, at least for now the monsters lurking in these mines would kill him immediately, and the man finally followed.

But he meets Akane, and after the red-haired girl pretends to make a vicious threat, the miner finally agrees to drag his family to Fir City with a sad face.

During the conversation, Brando learned that in addition to the miner's life, the other party had also learned some silversmith's trades, so he simply agreed to work as an apprentice blacksmith.

In comparison, this job is much safer than that of miners, and the benefits are greater, and in the end, the man is still apprehensive in his heart, but he can't help but look forward to it.

With such ambivalence in mind, he felt the people in front of him stop again.

But this time it wasn't a monster or a person, and everyone saw a dark gate appear not far from the mine in front of them.

The closed gate seals the entire tunnel.

Medisa and Akane couldn't help but stop and look at Curran, who kept saying that the road would lead to the lift. But when they saw this year-old swordsman, there was an expression of disbelief on his face: "This is?" The old man was slightly stunned.

"Shouldn't that be a question?" Akane frowned, her voice was weak, but full of suspicion.

"No, no, what's going on?" Kuran couldn't help frowning, and he said to Medisa beside him, "Little girl, can you help me over to take a look." ”

Métissa looked at Brando with an inquiring look, and the young man nodded. He had also passed by here and knew that this old man had not lied, and that there really should be no such door as zài here.

He had a suspicion, but it still needed to be confirmed.

The little princess of the silver elf did as she was told, and helped the old swordsman to walk over, who groped the cold, heavy door with his hand, and muttered to himself: "How is this possible, how is this possible......?"
