The City of Gold, in the palace of the Lord of Enriquez.

After some thought, Alan spoke, "Mr. City Lord, I have a question that I would like to be answered by you. ”

"Say it." Grand Duke Enriquez has been waiting for a long time.

With a smile on his face, Alan finally said, "Lord of the City, I would like to ask if the staff members of the palace have heard the story of King Santony. ”

Allen's "King Santoni" is one of the pocket stories of the bards on the Divine Grace Continent, and it is only when it is very rare that it will be turned out and told. More than 1,000 years ago, in a southern principality, a rare snowstorm struck there. It turned out to be a turmoil and chaos about the demigod "Snow Crystal Orc".

In the midst of that chaos, a group of God Slayers emerged in the principality. Eventually, an unnamed creep quickly rose to prominence and became the legend that would eventually slaughter the Snow Crystal Orcs.

In the process of the rise of Tony's soldiers, the power of the principality has been destroyed by the demigods, and there has been a vacuum, ushering in a pattern that needs to be shuffled again. In the midst of that turmoil, the king of the principality accepted the advice of his ministers and promoted the baseless Tony soldiers, which eventually turned the situation of the principality for a hundred years.

And many of these strategies, which have been passed down to this day, are still well known, and when everyone looks back at this past in hindsight, they are surprised to find that in the chaos, King Santoni was just a pawn of the king of the principality for a long time, and he was even used and betrayed without knowing it.

Alan threw out such a story at this time, the intention was obvious, and it was also very direct, what he wanted to know was what kind of role he played in the eyes of the city lord. In the exchange, there is no need to hide some things, and talking openly and honestly can bring you opportunities and open up a situation.

Since the lord of the city has handed over the initiative to Allen, Allen will not waste it.

Hearing this, both Enriquez and Antunia were stunned, it turned out that the young man in front of him knew that he was a chess piece. In fact, when the development trend of the City of Gold became more and more similar to what happened to "King Santoni", Antunia and other city lords' palace staff did think of this story, and followed the way, pushing Eren to the front of the stage.

Allen's sentence seems tepid, but it contains a lot of information. Unexpectedly, this young man had already seen the layout of the City Lord's Mansion very thoroughly. Even Allen's words carried a faint sense of counterattack and warning, which made people sound like they had a lot of thoughts.

"This son is really extraordinary." After listening to Allen's words, Enriquez began to feel that the hero badge he gave away might not be wrong.

And Antunia thought at this time, how could this guy Alan know so much.

When Alan said "King Santoni", he had already expected the reaction of Enriquez and Antunia, and now it seems that these two strong men clearly understood the meaning of their words.

And for Allen, this question is definitely a dangerous move. The slightest mistake will lead to disgust from the other party.

It's just that the actions of the City Lord's Mansion these days have been fast and ruthless for Allen, praising himself as a hero and pushing him to the forefront, but he didn't discuss it with himself at all. If this is a game of chess, then the City Lord's Mansion has already arranged all the routines before tonight, and if Alan does not make a ruthless move at a critical moment, then the outcome of this game of chess, Allen can only passively accept it.

After a moment of silence, Enriquez motioned for Alan and the others to have some snacks again.

Alan also smiled slightly, picked up a piece of pastry, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly. The two sides looked at each other a few times, and the lord of the city finally spoke.

"Alan, your question is impressive."

During the meeting, Enriquez asked Alan if he had a lot of questions in his mind, and gave Alan a chance to ask questions. Enriquez offered to ask Alan questions, apparently prepared. But the time-tested Lord Duke did not expect that the question asked by Alan would be so difficult to follow.

To be honest, Allen's question is a bit rude, and if Enriquez is a little tempered, there is no need to talk about it at this time. But now Enriquez's curiosity about Alan outweighs his dissatisfaction with him. The space for the two sides to talk, and even the direction, was completely opened up through Allen's question.

Of course, if it weren't for the fact that the Death Knight who descended on the mysterious altar was too powerful, and if it weren't for the fact that the City Lord's Mansion still didn't know anything about the "Abyss", there would be no need for Enriquez to talk to Eren further. Alan knows what the other person wants, so he also knows that he can say a lot of words.

Enriquez spoke, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he skipped the topic of Santony's chess pieces, even if the City Lord's Mansion really regarded Allen as a chess piece, would he admit it at this moment? There are some things that everyone understands, and there is no need to say more, not to mention that Enriquez is still a person in power who has held huge power for a long time.

The lord of the castle said, "I thought, what do you think about getting the Hero's Medal. ”

Hearing this, Alan immediately stood up, and Dale also stood up with her. Alan bowed to Enriquez: "For this matter, I must very solemnly express my gratitude to the City Lord, this is a great affirmation, and it is also my honor." Golden Raspar made me who I am! ”

"Good." Enriquez was pleased with Alan's answer. After entering the study, in just a few words, Enriquez had a deep understanding of the young warlock in front of him.

"Your approach is much more mature than your age." Enriquez said.

Alan smiled gratefully and didn't say anything, the city lord's vision was really accurate. Alan's soul is indeed much older and more sophisticated than his own body.

"Without further ado, there are two main things to summon you separately today, and I want to hear your opinion." Enriquez Dao, a seemingly low-level warlock, can expel the terrifying ghost of chaos when many legendary powerhouses are helpless, and this method is enough to attract Enriquez's attention.

Obviously, compared to the many aides around him, Enriquez put Allen in a higher position. If the Legend is a powerful combat resource of the City Lord's Mansion, then the warlock who has just been named a City Hero is likely to be a strategic-level figure, and everything he knows is enough to change the future!

In the tedious matter of expelling the abyss, Enriquez saw the true role of Alan, which was a height that the staff around him had not reached, and it was also a reflection of Enriquez's ability to hold power steadily for more than twenty years.

"First things first, what do you think about the abyss?"

"Second thing, what do you think about the situation of the nobles in Golden City?"

After hearing these two questions, Allen's eyes bloomed with a little surprise, it turned out that the city lord regarded himself as a consultant. And this also let Allen know what kind of character he is in Enlex's eyes.

If the city lord summons him tonight just to explain the matter of the "hero badge" and arrange Eren's next move, then in the eyes of the city lord, Eren is an ordinary subordinate, or an outright pawn.

If the city lord wants to recruit himself tonight, he sees himself as a potential talent, and wants to take it for himself, in order to burst out a certain amount of energy in the future, and he is still a subordinate.

And now, the lord of the castle threw out two questions. Although Alan has been talking about these two questions with his friends over and over again these days, as a person in power, it is somewhat shameless to ask, so in the eyes of the city lord, Alan is at least a person worth talking about. Thinking about this, Alan could also understand the purpose of the city lord from this series of tests.

Allen's performance in the face of the test determines the attitude of the City Lord's Mansion towards him, and this kind of observation may have started since Allen just walked into the City Lord's Mansion. And Allen has always behaved very decently since the dinner, and even showed influence, Enriquez was satisfied with Allen's performance, so he naturally had the current question.

"Enriquez is a man who is truly aware of the dangers that the forces of the Abyss can bring." Alan thought silently in his heart, his heart beating fast. For so long, Alan has always hoped that the people of the Golden City can form a consensus on the issue of the abyss and correctly face the crisis that the abyss may bring. However, even after the outbreak of the evil ghost's strength, there are still a considerable number of people in the city who believe that everything is not so bad, the ghost has disappeared, and the crisis has been resolved.

Alan knew that in the past few days, Enriquez must have been exposed to a very large amount of information, and when people stood at a certain height, they saw that the situation was much clearer.

The first question Alan asked when he came to the study was unanswered. And the question asked by the city lord, Alan said it honestly.

"My view of the Abyss is much more pessimistic than that of the vast majority of people in the City of Gold. A year ago, I fled north of the Skader Mountains and experienced an orc chase, a Dark Elf assassin hunt, a Caydon attack, and even a skeleton incident at the Mage Academy. “

"There is evidence that the existence of the abyss forces, the decision is not as simple as we think, and the influence of this group of people may have exceeded the Golden City, or even the entire Raspar grassland."

Alan no longer blames his mastery of the abyss on a non-existent mentor, and when things develop to a certain extent, Alan can already take responsibility for his words, and there is no need for Alan to lie in the face of a person who has real power and influence in the future.

"More about whether the abyss forces really have such a big impact, this matter still needs to be demonstrated, but I came to you today, naturally I also saw the possibility of a critical outbreak, take a step back and say, if the abyss really attacks, how much do you think their destructive power will be?" The city lord asked.

Alan said: "I think that the arrival of the abyss force is a subversive existence for the entire Divine Grace Continent. Their goal is very clear, which is to rule here! I think this can be answered from every Abyss Minion, who has been waiting for the Lord of the Abyss Plane to come! (To be continued.) )
