Chapter 556: The Rebel
Hearing the statement of their own president, these members cautiously withdrew their weapons. But they had gathered around Arrow more than they had just been.
β¦β¦ Except, of course, for cheese, which now seems to be completely asleep.
It wasn't until the weapon left his neck that Count Rui Ying took a breath and said with a smile: "It can be seen that the cohesion of President Arrow's guild is really strong." β
A smile appeared on Arrow's face again, except that the two palm prints were still red and swollen, he was no different from just now: "So much...... Count Eagle, it's almost time for us to get down to business, right? β
The earl nodded, and after a moment of silence, he spoke: "The medicine master family has amassed too much wealth, but in the same way, the national constitution of our country is getting worse and worse. This is not a good thing. β
"I have personally seen several people who died suddenly because of Du Lengjia's injuries, and this miserable scene is really unbearable. Therefore, I have repeatedly suggested that Your Majesty can adjust Du Lengjia's policy, but it has no effect. On the contrary, because of my advice, the people of the pharmacist family naturally regarded me as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh. They started trying to get rid of me in every possible way. β
"And this time, they almost succeeded perfectly."
"Using a few small experiments that may have been carried out in the True Eye Guild that I have secretly cultivated, they have used the name of your Mermaid Song to directly destroy my subordinates, and at the same time deprived me of a large part of my voice in front of His Majesty the Emperor. To tell the truth, the fact that I am still able to retain the title of earl is considered a great forgiveness on the part of your majesty for the sake of my ancestors. β
"But although my title has been retained, almost all the territories that I have won with great difficulty have been recovered. Moreover, some of the property of our Histein family has also been deprived because of this, and now our family is almost equal to no property or financial resources, and can only rely on the name of the earl, and receive a small amount of money every month to survive. But even so, the medicine family will definitely want to wipe out our family, and will definitely not tolerate us living too long. β
Speaking of which, Arrow basically understood. He shrugged his shoulders slightly and said with a smile, "If I'm not mistaken, the Hisstein family has always been based on the operation of magical materials and alchemical medicinal materials, right?" In other words...... Du Lengjia, this drug, robbed your family's business on another level? Or is it because some of the materials used by that medicine master family to refine Du Lengjia are controlled by your family, so they want to kill your family to control the source of this raw material? Either way, Count Ruiying, I think there is still a big gap between your actual condition and your so-called concern for the health of the people. β
Hearing Arrow say this, Count Rui Ying seemed very calm, and instead asked: "So, is there a conflict between wanting to defeat Du Lengjia because it hinders me from making money, and trying to defeat Du Lengjia because he wants to save the people's body and economy?" β
Arrow thought about it, but nodded irrefutably: "In terms of details and operations, there is really no conflict. Now I can see why you're in my guild. Count Grey Eagle Histen, if you really want to contact our Mermaid Song to attack Du Lengjia of the Medicine Clan, will you find the wrong person? We're just a small guild, but we don't have that much influence. β
Rui Ying smiled, but his face did not show disappointment: "The Song of the Mermaid is a small guild, but President Arrow will you...... But he's not a small person. β
At that moment, the smile on Arrow's face froze instantly.
"Once the Medicine Master Family has the evidence of the True Eye, they can use a thousand reasons to trick me, but why did they choose your guild instead? And as far as I know, President Arrow's Mermaid Song must have encountered some very strong obstruction and attack in the past two years, right? β
After a moment, the smile on Arrow's face returned. But under the table, his fists were slightly clenched, and his calves couldn't help but tremble slightly. This tremor was felt by Napa in the cat house, and it flew out silently and slowly landed on the thigh of the president.
"I really can't understand why a guild that has just been formed, and doesn't seem to have a grudge against anyone on weekdays, and always wants to make a fortune with other people, has been attacked so many times in a row from the nobility? But if it's a blow, it's fine, but why not use some unconventional means to uproot your guild directly? It's like this guild you run...... Just like some kind of willpower that cannot be spoken, destroying your guild is not the goal, destroying your will is the real goal. β
Because of the furry patch on his thighs, Airo's tightly clenched fists finally slowly released and gently pressed against Napa's hair. The warm and soft feeling in his palm could slightly curb the fear and trembling in his body, and it could also make the smile on the corner of his mouth seem more natural.
"So...... I can only ask a little boldly, do you know His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of our Blue Bay Empire? β
"No, I don't know. Never seen before. β
Arrow smiled and refused without even thinking about it.
The cheese over there was sleeping in a daze, and suddenly raised his hand, drooling from the corners of his mouth, and said indistinctly: "Ah, the crown prince? I know, I know...... Saved his life before......"
Margaux hurriedly tapped the sleeping dazed fellow with the staff of light, and shouted softly, "I didn't ask you!" Shut your mouth and sleep your night's sleep! β
Rui Ying looked Arrow up and down with a slightly puzzled gaze, as if he wanted to read through the president's mind. After a moment of silence, he finally nodded lightly and said, "I don't know...... Is it? All right. At present, it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be the most suspicious of Du Lengjia among the current members of the royal family. It's just that His Highness is only in a skeptical attitude at present, if there is someone he can trust, he can submit the information of Du Lengjia collected by me to His Highness......"
As he spoke, the Count took out a piece of cloth from his bosom and slowly placed it in front of Arrow.
In this regard, Arrow continued to maintain the smile on his face, but his shoulders were now unable to move because of the stiffness: "I'm really sorry, I really don't know what you're talking about." Crown Prince? How could the son of an ordinary peasant like me, who could be seen everywhere, know the crown prince? β
Earl Rui Ying exhaled and said, "Whatever, anyway, it is impossible for me to swagger into the capital now." But President Arrow should be able to, right? And you have the perfect reason to enter the capital. After all, there's a guild championship battle in the second half of this year......"
Before Rui Ying could finish speaking, Arrow directly shook his head and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, I really don't know what you're talking about. I didn't understand everything you said in our guild today, and I don't want to. Or are you just a traveler who wants to come and have fun in Pelican Town? In that case, I have no problem at all. Just ask passengers to never forget what they bring with them when they leave. Brad, return what the Earl has left behind to the Earl. β
Brad on the side was slightly stunned, but after hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded, stretched out his hand to grab the package, and slowly pushed it towards Count Ruiying.
"If you still won't help! Then one day, our Blue Bay Empire will be ruined on this terrible drug! β
A very bright, very innocent and innocent smile appeared on Arrow's face: "Ah~~? What are you talking about~~~? I don't understand~~~ Your Excellency the Earl, do you want to go and see the flower fairy? I'll let Parfay take you to see it~~~ Parfay, take His Excellency the Earl for a tour~~~"
Seeing that Arrow had obviously given the order to expel the guest, Count Ruiying was obviously a little anxious, he gritted his teeth, pressed the package with both hands and stepped forward, and said loudly: "If you think that you can't afford to fight head-on, then cut off the spread of this Du Lengjia first!" I know some of the smuggling channels of some pharmacist families! In addition to making money from our Blue Bay Empire, they are also making money from several countries around us! Even the Hunter Empire is their smuggling channel! You can secretly take down some smuggling channels in the form of a squad and fight against the interests of this family! β
"Parfay, why don't you go for a walk with Your Excellency the Earl? Don't you understand? β
Airo pressed Napa's hand a little harder. The cat raised its head slightly, and it could see that the human's jaw had begun to tremble slightly as he spoke, and the force on his back had begun to grow heavier, and his palms had begun to tremble uncontrollably.
After Parfay was yelled at again, she seemed to start to know how to do it. But before this flower fairy could make a move, another person on the side stepped forward directly, and the smile on his face was very bright-
"Let me send him off to His Excellency the Earl. I think the Earl would have been willing. β
It was Margaux who spoke.
And her face full of smiles naturally made Arrow exhale a little and nodded lightly, which was considered acquiescence.
"President Arrow! If you really have any channelsβ"
"Hi Si Tan Count Lord Court Down!"
Before Rui Ying could say anything more, Margaux on the side was already standing beside him with that smiling face, gently and dexterously, stretching out his hand and pointing in the direction of the gate......
