Chapter 69: Locke's Careful Reflections

The Holy City started because it mastered the establishment of the Space Array, coupled with the Terran Saint King back then, the only mage who had reached the god level for thousands of years, and finally established the Holy Domain, which is now the Holy City, under the two means of one soft and one hard.

Thinking of this, he vaguely had a concept in his mind, maybe he with a system could also rely on the uniqueness of the system to build a city like a holy city on this continent.

He had never been to the Holy City, and he had no idea how big the Holy City was and how high the goal he set was, but his ambition slowly sprouted in his heart!

"Knock Knock"

"My lord, Count Locke is here, and he is waiting outside the southern city."

Just then, there was a knock at the door, interrupting his thoughts, and he heard the voice of the old butler Stephen outside the door.

At this time, when Yifei was alone in the study thinking about the direction of this future struggle, he heard the voice of the old housekeeper Stephen outside the door.

What, Locke is coming! What is he doing here? MD, I can't see him when I'm in trouble, and I just showed up after the battle, which is also human nature, after all, we don't have a long relationship

Hearing the old butler's words, Yifei's mind instantly turned a few thoughts!.

For this nobleman from another world who he came into contact with first in this world, he still had a certain good impression because of his previous contact, and thought that the two were already friends.

But after his later behavior, he found that such friends were still different from the iron buddies he had made in his previous life.

For Locke and his Violet family, who have a certain good relationship, at this time, in Yifei's heart, they have changed from friends to partners who can use each other.

This is also a kind of maturity!

"Well, I see! Stephen, go and tell the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous feast for the Earl! ”

"Yes, my lord!" Stephen answered.

Yifei stood up, tidied up his bags, then knocked on the door and walked out!

"Hahaha, my friend, I'm so happy to see you safe and sound!" Yi Fei came to the south gate with a few guards, and saw Locke walking over with a big smile.

"Haha, my friend, I'm glad to see you too!" Yi Fei said politely, "Is there anything about your arrival in Wolf City today?" ”

Locke heard Yifei's inquiry, and there was a faint estrangement in his tone, far less affectionate than before, and his heart couldn't help but darken.

Alas, after this estrangement, it seems that the relationship between the two parties cannot remain as close as before! But he didn't expect that the wolf family would actually repel the attack of the barbarians, and hit the army of barbarians with a very strong attitude.

A few days ago, as soon as the barbarian army was defeated, the news was known to the various families of the empire. Although none of the families showed any solidarity in the previous few days, everyone's attention was on this side.

On the one hand, the Monroe clan, who reappeared after 300 years, and on the other hand, the barbarian tribe who were brave and good at fighting but could not be taught, this battle attracted the attention of all forces.

From beginning to end, no force is optimistic about the Wild Wolf Family, and everyone thinks that the Wild Wolf Family will definitely lose this battle, depending on what kind of defeat they choose.

But I never expected that in this battle, the methods shown by the wild wolf family surprised all the forces, first a few war beasts, and then a fire, and the army of hundreds of thousands of barbarians turned into ashes in an instant.

The various forces with different purposes did not see the details of the Monroe clan in this battle at all, and the only thing they found was the use of magic oil by the wolf family.

Unexpectedly, the magic oil produced in the swamp jungle was so powerful on the battlefield, and this battle was instantly written into the textbooks of various countries.

It's a classic defensive battle, a defensive battle in which the weak defeat the strong, and at the same time a controversial defensive battle!

Even Locke himself did not approve of such a method, tens of thousands of war beasts and so many expensive magic oils, the wealth consumed was enough to buy dozens of wolf cities.

You must know that the price of a domesticated war beast is worth a good war horse, and a good war horse is worth at least a few hundred gold coins; And the magic oil, because of its terrible military use, is even more expensive.

After being shot by an arrow infested with magic oil, the only way to do it without the priest and the medicine man is to dig out the piece of flesh that was shot by the arrow, otherwise it will not recover at all.

At the same time, because magic oil can only be produced in the swamps, and those green ghosts in the swamps are all greedy.

But the way this war was fought was very popular with the vampires of the Business Alliance, as they were the richest people on the entire continent.

In their words, anything that can be solved with gold coins is not a thing!

After the news of this war spread, the soft power of the business alliance has suddenly increased by leaps and bounds.

At the same time, the green ghosts in the swamp have doubled the price of magic oil. The already expensive magic oil has now become even more expensive, and the magic oil that used to cost only a hundred gold coins a barrel now costs 1,000 gold coins, and it is in short supply, because the annual production of magic oil is too low.

For the entire continent, a few thousand barrels of magic oil per year are simply not enough!

Therefore, many families wanted to know how the Wild Wolf Family could have so much magic oil, and at the same time, they wanted to know what method the Wild Wolf Family used to cover up the pungent smell of the magic oil.

A magic oil fire pit within a radius of several kilometers, how many barrels of magic oil are needed for this! There is so much magic oil buried in the ground, and the smell is not to mention a person, even a pitcher beast can be stunned.

Nepentalmon: A special war beast of the Orc Empire, known for its thick size and dull sense of smell, it is generally used to transport war beasts.

Locke came to Wolf City this time to repair the relationship between the two sides on the orders of the family, and at the same time, he wanted him to rely on his previous friendship to ask how the Wolf family covered up the pungent smell of magic oil.

And the most important news, he only learned yesterday, that news he has not reported to the family.

Now after hearing Yi Yifei's tone, he knows that things are a little difficult! The Monroe family values honesty the most, but their Violet family has violated this, and I am afraid that the relationship between the two families will be difficult to restore to the previous level!

It's hateful, it's the old fools in the family elder council who think that this battle wolf family will be defeated, and there is no need to ally with it anymore, which has caused the embarrassing status quo now.

Didn't they see who was standing behind the Wild Wolf Family, it was the mysterious Monroe clan, and it was also the most profitable race in this continent.

"Hehe, Brother Yifei, didn't you ask me to help you collect some books about the records of various ethnic groups some time ago? No, I sent it to you today! Locke looked at Yifei with a cold heart in front of him, and said with some embarrassment.

Hey! When Yifei heard Locke's answer, his eyes lit up, and he immediately smiled and said, "Hahaha, that's great, thank you, my friend!" ”

"Hahaha, Brother Yifei, you and I don't have to be polite!" After seeing Yifei's reaction, Locke couldn't help but breathe a little relieved and said with a smile.

"Fei, I'm very sorry for what happened last time," Locke decided to take the opportunity to further ease the relationship between the two parties, and said in a low voice.

"My friend, needless to say, I know that I don't blame you for this, but I am also a little persistent" Although Yifei was a little unhappy with the Violet family's previous approach, he couldn't help but soften his tone a little when he saw Locke's behavior.

"No, my friend, please listen to me." Hearing Yifei's words, Locke hurriedly said.

"Your Excellency Yifei, because the war may trigger a war between the two races, the knights of the clan who were already preparing to set off to support your family had to be recalled due to the opposition from above.

For this, I don't beg you to forgive our Violet Family for betrayal, but I can only express to you the apologies of our Violet Family, and I hope this will not affect the relationship between the two of you" Locke said the truth of the matter very sincerely this time, and he hoped that through this, the relationship between the two sides could be eased.

Some time ago, the war between the wolf family and several barbarian tribes, although the wolf family did not show a lot of hole cards, but there is one thing, only he knows, that magical thing let him know, the Monroe family's heritage is not as weak as people outside think.

The mysterious Monroe family, after three hundred years of accumulation, has become a behemoth, otherwise they would not have had such a large capital to build a spatial passage in such a small city.

At the same time, he even guessed in his heart that the Monroe clan should have successfully contacted their hometown! Because the last time he came to Wolf City, he didn't find that there were so many war beasts in captivity in the city.

And through the investigation, Wolf City has not purchased war beasts from the outside world, and those war beasts appear as if they appeared out of thin air!

Although he didn't know how big the spatial passage established by the Monroe clan was, and whether there were any restrictions, but through the last battle, he could clearly know that through three hundred years of accumulation, the strength of the Monroe clan in the Eastern Continent should not be underestimated!

Yes, it's a spatial passage, something that only exists in ancient legends! As the heir of a large family, Locke is not so unheard, and he knows that the spatial passage does exist.

Just like the Demon Abyss Passage sealed on the Holy City's side, it was also a spatial passage, connecting to a terrifying place, that is, the place called the Demon Race by all the races on the continent.

It's just that the starry sky stones needed to build a space passage are too rare, and the only place to produce them is the Demon Abyss Valley, otherwise the space passage would not be so precious.
