Chapter Seventy-Four: Thunder Sledgehammer
"The people of the Church have left the Land of the Wild Moon?"
The dimly lit houses, the burning charcoal, the faint smell of burnt yellow wafted. The light and heat came slowly, diffused in the room, and reflected a handsome face.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Duranta personally went to the Land of the Wild Moon and brought back the young men of the Second Son Regiment. After that, they left the small town of Lyon and went to another place to train. ”
The thick darkness could not be dissipated, and a deep voice came from it.
Sancho stroked his chin slightly, not taking it to heart. "Everyone said that the people of the Church were at odds with what they called heresy, but the first paladin, who was in the limelight, went on a trip to the land of the Wild Moon and came back pretending not to see anything. It's not easy!"
The black shadow paused and said, "Your Highness, what should we do next?"
"Have the Brotherhood found their stronghold?"
"We wanted to keep track of their convoys, but they were very careful every time. In the past few days, there has not been a single convoy in the land of the barren moon. ”
The more the other party tries to hide himself, the more Sancho wants to know the true face of the other party behind the fog.
An elven stronghold is too tempting for even Sancho, the king of the dark world in the south, to take lightly.
"Be patient, as long as you are willing to wait, sooner or later the prey will show its tracks. ”
Sancho smiled, a cold light in his dark gaze.
"Your Highness, are you there?"
A shout came from outside the door, revealing anxiety and urgency.
Sancho glanced at the dark shadow, and the other party disappeared into the room in an instant, leaving no trace.
"Come in!"
A middle-aged businessman with a big belly hurriedly walked in, still holding a piece of charcoal in his hand.
"What's the matter?"
Sancho was very strict, and every afternoon was his time to rest, and under normal circumstances, no one would disturb him.
"Your Highness, you see, this is a new charcoal shop opened by the Golden Harvest Chamber of Commerce in the city, and the silver silk charcoal sold in it. ”
Sancho was not unlearned, and he could see the difference at a glance.
"How does this compare to the charcoal sold in our shop?"
"We've experimented with it, and it burns longer and doesn't make a sound than our flowing gold charcoal. The most important thing is that no matter how we improve the process, the flowing gold charcoal will still leave a trace of burnt smell when burned, and this kind of charcoal is completely tasteless, and even has a faint pine fragrance. As far as we know, several nobles in the upper part of the city have abandoned the coals in our shop in favor of their silver charcoals. ”
Sancho understood that the aristocracy enjoyed luxury. In winter, Garcia became very cold, and the nobles often bought large quantities of charcoal to store in their homes. Unlike the commoners, the aristocracy had very high requirements for the quality of charcoal. So in the past, in the winter, Sancho's charcoal shop became very easy to sell.
"Moreover, the Golden Harvest Chamber of Commerce also has several shops in Garcia City ready to open, we have checked, there are weapons shops, alchemy shops, and a magic scroll shop. It seems that they want to squeeze out all of our Chamber of Commerce's business in Garcia. ”
Anger welled up in his heart, and Sancho clenched his fists.
However, the anger did not last long before Sancho calmed down. He smiled, and in an instant understood. It seems that he is testing others, and others are testing himself.
"My lord, shall we..."
The pot-bellied merchant made a kill-and-kill gesture. After all, after so many years, he knows the means of this Highness Sancho very well. As the king of the dark world, Sancho has a way to make the other party's business untenable.
"You don't need our people to do it themselves, go find the seventh prince Sijia and let him think of a way. ”
The merchant smiled knowingly and quickly withdrew.
.......
The large room, without any decoration, is empty, and you can see the end at a glance.
The man stood with his eyes closed, holding a hammer in his hand. The wonderful thing is that between the man's breath and breath, his body trembled slightly, and the hammer in his hand rubbed against the air, and there was a thunderous sound, one after another.
The man was the third prince of the Navarre Empire, Reso Toledo.
As a battle mage, level 20 is a tipping point, and if you cross it, you will be promoted to a higher mage. Whether it's magic or combat, there's a qualitative change. It also means that he has taken a small step towards the top power on this continent.
It's just a small step, but it's a world of difference compared to before. Rayso could already feel an invisible diaphragm across his path. He wanted to cross it, but he couldn't find a way.
"Who is it?"
Lei Suo opened his eyes, and not far away, the black qi slowly lifted up from the void, layer after layer, surrounding a young man.
Under the fog, the figure of the teenager is not real. Rayso raised his hand and hammered, and an arc of lightning came out from under the hammer, striking the boy in the black mist.
The young man in the black mist did not dodge, as the arc approached, the electric snake of Zizi swept away the layers of black mist, at least in front of the year, but he could no longer advance an inch. And in that instant, Rayso saw the face of the comer.
"It's you!"
"The heirs of Thor's hammer are truly extraordinary!"
"Everyone in the world is looking for the traces of Duke Badr, but they didn't expect that you had been staying in the south! It's just that I don't know, why His Highness came this time?"
Resso said with respect in his words.
"The third prince has a good reputation! I came this time because I had a deal and came to negotiate. ”
"Trading?" said Rayso, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"That's right. His Highness Reso provides shelter to the Golden Harvest Chamber of Commerce, which in turn supports His Highness. ”
Lei Suo smiled and said, "It turns out that the Golden Harvest Chamber of Commerce, which has recently become famous in Garcia, is your handiwork. It's just that although the Golden Harvest Chamber of Commerce is gaining momentum, it is a tree without roots. Why should I risk offending a large number of people to protect your business, and what support can you provide me?"
"Money, intelligence, equipment, a force that can counter the matriarchal forces behind the seventh prince Siga. How?"
Resso's eyes narrowed, and he had to say that Will's proposal made him very excited. It's just that how can he be sure that Will is not a white wolf with empty gloves?
However, Reso was not an ordinary person after all, and said with a smile: "If Duke Badr can take me a hammer of Thor, then I will agree to cooperate with you!"
Before Will could answer, Rayso leaped forward, and Thor's hammer swung with a roaring thunder that resounded for miles in a radius. Hit Will.
The wooden floor was reduced to splinters, and smoke filled the air. Reso didn't keep his hand, and Will didn't dodge. In the heavy black mist, thunder and lightning resounded, repulsing the black air.
Lei Suo fell to the ground, his eyes flashed, and the face of the young man in front of him was still the same, between advancing and retreating, the victory or defeat had already been revealed.
"Your Excellency's proposal, I agreed!"
