Chapter 1304: Scattered Clues (Part II)

"To put it simply, it's about letting those eyes discover opportunities for themselves. ”

Hill Fox picked up his pen and drew a tree diagram on a blank piece of paper, "Since we pay for intelligence, not individuals, the more valid information we send back at a time, the better we get paid." In order to get more information, they will inevitably look for their own eyes, which, in the words of His Majesty, is called development downline. ”

"I see," Edith quickly grasped the key, "In order to envelop the downline, the upline must also give certain benefits, which makes it possible for the downline to continue to develop the downline." ”

Ciel nodded, "You're right, whether it's a sentry or a spy, they're all a single end, and no matter how long it takes, nothing changes. This makes the information they receive relatively reliable, but also limited by their field of view. ”

"But rats are always rats...... Iron Axe frowned.

"No, my lord, the most interesting thing about this method is that going up and down doesn't mean up or down. The upline of a soldier is always an officer, while the downline of a mouse is not necessarily a mouse. ”

"With the right benefits, rats can also turn nobles into their own eyes. Edith continued, word for word.

There was a hint of admiration in Hill's eyes, "Yes, the benefits don't have to be the golden dragon. Everyone's needs are different, and whether or not you understand these needs has nothing to do with class. This means that the development of the downline may appear across classes. The current information is extremely messy and vague, because of the rat's vision. As the intelligence line expands to the upper echelons, the value of the message is bound to increase. ”

Iron Axe pondered for a moment, "Even so, it will probably take quite a while for those who have their eyes to contact those of the higher ranks. ”

"In normal times, it would be true. "But now that Eternal Winter has changed dramatically, I think the intelligence line will expand faster than we thought." In fact, this is already faintly revealed by these scattered news. ”

"For example?" Iron Axe touched his chin.

Hill smiled, "According to statistics, the content of the nobility in the intelligence has been declining recently, and even if there is, it is mostly negative news, such as gathering crowds for prostitution, street fights, and so on. For those in power, this is not the way it should be in war, it is a disguised reflection of the deviation of the upper echelons of Eternal Winter from their original functions, and the pressure is increasing, so it can only be mitigated in this way. Tracing back to its origins, it is likely that the transformation began with the First Army's migration squad defeating the noble ambushes. ”

He paused, then continued, "Although I was still in Dawn Glowlight City at the time, I can also imagine the blow this news will have on the nobles. Once people's hearts fluctuate, opportunities will arise, and characters who are usually dismissive will also become life-saving straws at certain moments - rest assured, that day should not be too long. ”

Eternal Winter, Snow Castle.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. The host is unwell today, and he really can't see the guests, so please go back first. The butler bowed to everyone in the hall, "When the master's health improves, he will definitely give everyone an explanation." ”

The hall exploded in an instant.

"We've been waiting for weeks! Even if he gets sick, he won't be able to come out and meet him, right?"

"I don't need any bullshit to explain, I fought for him, where is the territory I said?"

"That's right, even if it's inconvenient to meet guests, you can take out the title deed!"

"This butler is lying, I obviously saw Viscount Nanos enter the castle yesterday, and it took two hours to come out!"

"Not to mention Lord Viscount, there are still a lot of dancers in the tavern who go in every day, is it possible that now that Lord Duke is sick, he is not looking for a sage bachelor, but only looking for a woman?"

"Please be careful. The butler cleared his throat and said in a cold tone, "You may have been unrestrained because you have lost your territory for too long, but don't forget that since you have decided to serve the Duke of the North, you are the vassal of your master. I think you know better than I do the guilt of slandering the monarch! In such weather, living in a prison is not as comfortable as a hotel. ”

With this admonition, the guard guarding the doorway also took two steps forward, and the armor on his body made a clattering sound.

The noise in the hall suddenly became much quieter.

Obviously, if there is a conflict here, it will be detrimental to everyone.

The butler also slowed his tone, "I know everyone's eagerness, but the top priority is to defeat the Greykeep rebels, and please be patient." By the way, the host will have a dinner in the banquet room of the castle tonight to treat you, and although he will not be able to attend, he still hopes that you will have a good time. ”

Probably for the sake of the banquet, the last trace of dissatisfaction of everyone was temporarily suppressed, and they walked out of the hall muttering.

Outside the castle, the conversation has shifted from debt collection to gourmet food and women at the evening feast.

Only Fowler returned to the hotel sullenly.

After this period of contact, he only had a deep disappointment in his heart for Duke Marvion.

If the defeat of Frosttown was due to the greater proficiency and fighting spirit of the Greykeepers, then it is time to learn the lesson. But what did the Duke do? Not only did he flee in front of the battle, but he also shut himself up in the castle of Snow Shadow, as if he had completely forgotten the ambitions he had made when he set out on the expedition.

Not only that, but he also owed the fiefs he had promisedβ€”not every nobleman who participated in the expedition, such as Viscount Thanos, who was free to enter and leave the castle, and who were turned away were knights like them, who were already under the fence.

Obviously, when he set out on the expedition, the duke also expressed considerable importance to himself.

Breaking his word and getting fat is a taboo for the monarch, but Ma Weien obviously can't care about this bit of face in order to keep his own territory.

Fowler threw himself under Marvein in order to find an opportunity to revive the family, but now not to mention the fiefdom, even the servants and guards who followed him were all killed in that battle, and at this moment, he can be regarded as a real loner.

Can a knight with no squires and no territory really be considered a nobleman? What about the others who have the capital to drag down? Who will recognize his family in a year or half a year? Of course, if the devil can defeat Roland Wimbledon, the Duke of Marveen will gain great power, and it will be easy to help him revive the family, but the problem is...... According to the face that the other party is showing now, would he really be willing to reach out and pull a person who has nothing?

Leave your fate entirely in the hands of others, or do you try to leave yourself a way back?

Fowler walked up and down the bedroom, and finally came to a slow stop.

He went to his desk and pulled out a folded envelope from the bottom of the drawer.

After hesitation, he gently tore open the seal.

And inside lies a pure black card.
