"Is Knight Jarvis joking?"

Baron Kells was not annoyed, but said in a relaxed tone: "I can only send a maximum of a hundred guards, and as for the knights, I will not borrow them for the time being." ”

"Lord Kells, you're kidding. Jarvis's face was solemn, "Isn't it outrageous to lend a hundred people in less than two months at the cost of a coastal tun plus 20,000 goldlums?" ”

"If you feel that the conditions are unreasonable, we can terminate the exchange. You can borrow troops from someone else, such as Baron Naondo of Stormwind or Viscount Babila, a former friend of Baron Ndon's father. ”

Baron Kells was breezy and unemotional.

There was a clear flash of anger in Jarvis's eyes, how could it be possible to seek the assistance of Baron Naondo and Baron Babilla.

Leaving aside the losses suffered by Stormwind in the border war, it is impossible for him to send his guards to Blue Whale just because Baron Nton had rejected Baron Naondo's invitation. As for Viscount Barbira, his Oyster City will be attacked by pirates, how can he take care of Blue Whale Town. Even if he personally appointed forces to come, what would it cost?

It will not work at all to cede a coastal cantonment.

Not to mention whether Viscount Barbira would be satisfied with this condition, even if he really agreed, Baron Nton did not dare to let him set foot in Blue Whale Town.

This kind of greater aristocracy can completely grab more maritime interests through some means.

It can't be done.

Jarvis quickly restrained his anger, and he calmed down: "Cessing Pearl Tun, plus 40,000 gold lums, this is our limit." If Baron Kells is not satisfied, there really is no need for us to talk further. ”

"Pearl Tun plus 60,000 gold lums, a hundred guards and a knight. ”

After Baron Kells said this, he turned to look at Ole and Willy, "What do you think?"

If Ole and Willy don't agree, he can change other conditions.

"I can go. ”

Willy scrambled ahead of Ole to make a statement.

The ocean is a whole new field for me. Only by constantly exploring can you unlock more titles and get more attribute points. Willy had longed for the ocean before, but because it was Baron Enton's territory, he didn't have a good chance to go there. This is the opportunity to try to grasp it yourself.

"I can too. ”

Ole glanced at Willy with satisfaction.

In his opinion, Willy took the initiative to take the risk of resisting the pirates, so that he would not have to work as a teacher.

Condas pouted, in fact, he would have preferred Ole to go to Blue Whale Town.

After all, Ole is a mid-level knight, while Willy is only a junior knight.

Jarvis didn't think much of it, but he was more interested in the new Willy.

"Pearl Tun plus sixty-five thousand gold lums, and one hundred and twenty guards and one knight were lent. ”

The reason why Jarvis insisted on the number of guards was also forced by the reality.

Blue Whale has a long coastline, and the number of guards needed must be sufficient, otherwise if pirates break ashore, they will not be able to make an effective defense. The role of a guard is not only to garrison, but also to reconnoitre.

Baron Kells pondered for a moment, and finally made a decision: "Yes. ”

He also knows very well that this condition is basically Jarvis's bottom line. If you raise the price again, it may be counterproductive.

He must not miss the opportunity to intervene in the allocation of marine resources, and must seize it.

After receiving an affirmative answer from Baron Kells, Jarvis and Condas's hearts were relieved at the same time, and the most critical problem was solved.

"One last question. ”

"I wonder how strong the enemy we are facing," said Baron Kells. ”

The first question is about benefits, the second is about costs, and the third is about understanding what the risks are.

"We can't be sure about that. Jarvis replied truthfully, "The pirates are not the same force, their attacks are irregular, and we don't know who the specific opponent is. ”

"In that case, then I must add one condition. ”

Baron Kells suggested.

"Lord Kells, please. ”

Jarvis frowned slightly.

"In the event of a situation that threatens Willy's life, he has the right to withdraw from the operation immediately and return to Diamondtown. Also, if the death toll of my guards exceeds thirty and the number of seriously wounded exceeds forty-five, I also have the right to withdraw the surviving guards. Moreover, the casualty compensation of these guards must be borne by Blue Whale Town. ”

At this time, Baron Kells behaved more like a shrewd businessman.

"Yes. ”

Jarvis didn't hesitate too much and nodded directly.

If something happens to Willy, just one pearl can't make up for the loss, it's a knight. It is simply impossible to let other people's knights defend their own interests to the death.

"In that case, it's a pleasure to work together. ”

Kells smiled slightly: "Please stay at noon, and we will have a simple lunch." ”

At this time, Baron Kells was in a happy mood, and this transaction was quite a good deal.

"No, we have to go back to Blue Whale Town, there are other things to take care of. ”

Jarvis and Condas got up at the same time and said goodbye to Baron Kells.

They don't have such a relaxed state of mind, and Blue Whale Town still has a lot of defensive fortifications and links that need to be arranged.

Seeing off Jarvis and Condas, Baron Kells said to Willy on the side, "Thank you for your hard work. ”

"That's my job. ”

Willy bowed slightly.

Baron Kells himself treats him more generously, and this trip is also his own will, so Willy's mood is also very relaxed.

"Remember, your life is the most important thing. ”

Baron Kells reminded.

"Got it, Lord Baron. ”

Willy nodded in response.

......

Over the next month and a half, Willy returned to learning the middle of the Frost Knight's breathing method.

Compared to the promotion of mortals to junior knights, this process is simpler, as long as you insist on having enough time to sharpen and accumulate, you can do this step. But even so, Willy didn't let up, and in contrast, he was looking at improved efficiency.

He wants to release his fighting spirit as quickly as possible and unlock the title of Intermediate Knight.

After learning of the existence of the mystic group, Willy's thirst for strength became even more urgent.

With the existence of the title attribute panel, it is only a matter of time before you face the secret master yourself.

For this uncertain group, the improvement of strength is the only guarantee.
