Chapter 16: One Hundred Secrets
"It's Casio!" Viscount Rosa didn't even call His Royal Highness the Prince at this moment, and gritted his teeth a little. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Seeing that Viscount Rosa understood, Count Lyme nodded.
"Then what is his purpose?" At this moment, Viscount Rosa was really confused by Casio's behavior.
For the first time, Count Lyme faced his enemies and became patient: "Let's think about it from another angle, what if Casio didn't intend to cooperate with any of us from the beginning to the end?"
"Moreover, when I let my former subordinates capture Casio, they didn't listen to my orders at all, but Casio's words, they carried out them unconditionally. ā
Hearing a suspicion that Count Lyme listed again, Viscount Rosa, who was not stupid, already understood.
"He wants us to fight among ourselves and weaken us. In this way, we will not be able to pose a threat to him at all, and compete with him for the veins!"
Rosa took a deep breath and suppressed the horror in her heart about Casio's simple, clear, yet clever scheme.
He didn't think about Casio wanting to take the opportunity to capture Lyme City, because it was simply unrealistic.
Not to mention the people they have mobilized, even in Lyme City now, there are at least nearly two hundred city guards who are absolutely impossible to mobilize.
And as far as he knew, Casio's manpower in Greenwater Town, even with Sisko and them, was barely more than two hundred people, and it was really not a realistic thing to want to carry out a siege war.
Even if it is captured, it can't be defended, what's the point?
After understanding that Casio set up this game, the main purpose was to weaken the strength of Lyme City, Viscount Rosa and Count Lyme felt that Casio was really sick.
Obviously, he is now facing the pressure of O'Utes City and Yalita, and instead of finding a way to find allies to survive this difficult period, he has made enemies everywhere for the value of the ore vein.
It's not sick, what is it?
When the time comes, aren't you afraid that they will unite with O'Utes City and directly serve his nest?
However, the idea only lingered in the minds of Count Lyme and Viscount Rosa for a moment before they were dismissed.
They have already seen Casio's schemes, and they will never think that Casio is the kind of person who is short-sighted and loses greater interests for the sake of the immediate interests.
But, if it weren't for the benefit of the vein, what other reason did he have to do it?
For a while, both Count Lyme and Viscount Rosa couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and began to think about what purpose Casio had behind this.
And the people on both sides did not receive orders, so they only guarded each other, staring at each other, waiting for their respective leaders to issue the latest orders.
I have to say that the two of them, Count Lyme and Viscount Rosa, are definitely not ordinary smart people, and they quickly came up with a new idea.
If Casio really planned this conspiracy for the benefit of part of the run. Then the question will return to the origin, the value of the vein!
Both Count Lyme and Viscount Rosa knew that even a gold mine should not be worth Casio's actions. And the only thing that is likely to be worthy of the other party's doing is the source mine!
Because even the lowest-level source ore is worth dozens of times more than ordinary ore veins. And this is the only reason why Casio is worth paying such a big price to instigate the infighting in Lyme City.
Thinking of this, Count Lyme and Viscount Rosa were shocked, and looked at each other almost at the same time, as if they both understood from each other's eyes that the other party had figured out the key point.
However, they didn't say it this time, but pretended not to think of anything, and Viscount Rosa even perfunctory the question of a partner next to him, indicating that he hadn't thought it through.
If Casio knew what the two were thinking, he would definitely vomit blood in anger.
Although the two did not guess the true purpose of his plan, in fact, they had already guessed half of it.
He did this because he didn't want to share the profits of the source mine.
And the purpose, naturally, is not because he is greedy for money or anything, but mainly because he wants to develop Green Water Town as soon as possible and be able to live under the iron hooves of the Waltis Empire.
The human mind is indeed the most difficult to control and master, even if Casio has calculated everything, but the final result is still beyond his expectations.
It can be said that this time he did weaken the power of Lyme City and prevented the other party from attacking the ore vein. But on the other hand, because the two Count Lyme guessed the existence of the source mine, after they recovered, their desire for the ore vein was definitely beyond Casio's expectations.
That's it!
After combing through Casio's plan back and forth, Count Leme and Viscount Rosa asked themselves if they had any questions, and then they remembered the current environment.
"And now, are you ready to continue?" Count Lyme himself did not expect that in the process of ending this war, he actually made an unexpected discovery.
With this discovery, he didn't want to do anything with Viscount Rosa anymore, so it was true that he would accumulate strength and take the source mine.
After all, if the source ore was a particularly good mineral, he could even use it to seek a temple or a powerful spirit child warrior to pray for his life, or perform rituals such as longevity.
As long as he continues to suppress the nobles of Lyme City, then his grandchildren will be able to grow up and continue the glory of the Lyme family once again.
As for his sons, it really doesn't matter, just look at Viscount Hope, and you almost understand.
The main thing is that the battle between them, which could have been solved with minimal losses, was carried out in the way that now seems to be the most stupid manpower consumption because of Casio's scheme.
Therefore, there is no need for this matter to continue.
Viscount Rosa's face changed, and according to his original intention, he naturally wanted to take this opportunity to completely defeat Count Lyme.
But because of the matter of the source mine, and the faint uneasiness about Casio, Viscount Rosa thought about it for a while, and then briefly discussed it with some of the surrounding nobles, and then waved his hand: "Retreat!"
At that moment, the two sides were on guard against each other, and slowly evacuated the canyon, leaving behind corpses in one place.
The fight between them will not end, but it will get back on track and continue in a way that is acceptable to both parties.
And until then, they will continue to accumulate their own strength as the biggest hole card in the next response to Casio!
From today onwards, unless Casio is really willing to trade with Source Ore, the entire aristocratic class of Lyme City will fight him to the end.
And the two of them, Count Lyme and Viscount Rosa, have even begun to make calculations about the city of Outes!
