Chapter 232: Tamil
In the Duke's Castle in the north of Kerry City, Tamil, who is over eighty years old but still in good spirits, and his body seems to be in the peak state, after reading the stack of information about the sprout collar in his hand, he frowned slightly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
As the real power of the Taylor Kingdom, especially a duke with a ghost in his heart, Tamil has invested far more in intelligence work than ordinary people imagine, so he also understands the various changes in the surrounding forces more deeply than ordinary people imagine.
Like the upheaval that occurred in neighboring Elson last year, the leaders of the general forces were still looking at Baron Cook and others, thinking that when Baron Cook colluded with the White Tower of the Nine Rings, Tamil had already paid attention to Luo Sheng, a teenager who soared into the sky with the help of the Snow Dragon Pass and joined the White Tower of the Nine Rings after the war. And after getting the news that Luo Sheng became a disciple of Quinir, Tamil was even more convinced that Luo Sheng must have played a special role in the changes in the Elson Kingdom, otherwise it would not have been so valued by the Nine Rings White Tower.
After realizing that Luo Sheng was special, Tamil naturally paid more attention to Luo Sheng. When Luo Sheng chose the territory in the North Continent New Sprout Territory and put on a posture of preparing for large-scale construction, Tamil had even sent someone to notify the one-eyed shark pirates in advance, asking them to avoid the surrounding area of the New Sprout Territory when they plundered, so as not to provoke Luo Sheng, a special person with a deep background who can directly attract the power of the Nine Rings White Tower.
But what Tamil never expected was that Rasheng would act so decisively. As soon as he arrived at the territory, he was not even familiar with the situation, so he directly killed Yugill Island, and with the help of the top armed merchant ship of Magic Light VII, he directly exterminated the one-eyed shark pirates, pulled out the stronghold arranged by the devil in the North Continent, and exposed the existence of the devil's power.
After receiving the news that Luo Sheng had exterminated the cyclops pirates, Tamil's first reaction was to mobilize the elite and directly kill the sprout collar and kill all the people involved. After all, colluding with the devil is a felony that all human societies cannot tolerate, and if Luo Sheng perceives the connection between the cyclops shark and the Duke's Palace, it will definitely be a huge threat to Tamil.
However, due to the strength of the Magic Light Seven, as well as the strength and special identity of Luo Sheng himself, Tamil did not act immediately, but contacted the fishmen of the Blue Frost Clan. After all, with a top-level armed merchant ship like the Magic Light VII, which has amazing speed and powerful combat power, without the full cooperation of the fishmen, it is difficult to catch everyone at sea. And once Luo Sheng is allowed to escape, then the consequences will not be much lighter than colluding with the devil to be discovered.
But what Tamil didn't expect was that the Blue Frost Fishman was photographed in the prestige of the White Tower of the Nine Rings, and he did not agree to his plan, and soon after, the appearance of Bunier and Milou made Tamil fall into great anxiety and almost collapse.
Fortunately, at this time, Tamil got the detailed information of the battle on Yugill Island, and confirmed that Rasheng directly killed all the high-ranking of the one-eyed shark pirates, and only captured some low-level pirates. Seeing this information, Tamil was a little relieved and postponed the idea of breaking the net with Luo Shengyu. After all, the connection between the Duke's Mansion and the One-Eyed Shark Pirates is extremely secretive, only the One-Eyed Shark and the Spirit Caller know the truth, and the other Silver Rank also has some vague guesses at most, and ordinary pirates don't know the situation at all. Without the high-level captives, it is unlikely that Luo Sheng will be able to track down the Duke's Palace.
However, even so, Tamil still did not dare to be careless, not only greatly strengthened the intelligence investigation of the New Sprout Territory, but also specially sent Klaas, a powerful subordinate in charge of the Hokuriku smuggling route, to the New Sprout Territory, wanting to penetrate the interior of the New Sprout Territory and obtain more information.
When Klaas asked to see Rasen, the results were far beyond Tamil's expectations. Rasson didn't seem to notice anything about the relationship between the one-eyed shark pirates and the Duke's Palace, and he didn't have much suspicion about Klaas. Not only did he accept this 'smuggler', but he also brought Klaas back to recruit sailors and talents from all sides. Taking advantage of the opportunity to transport people from Klaas to the Sprout Leader, Tymore stuffed more than ten elite spies into it, and almost completely grasped all aspects of the Sprout Territory.
And the information that kept coming back from the Hokuriku also reassured Tamil a lot. After exterminating the one-eyed shark pirates, Luo Sheng seems to have devoted himself to the management of the territory. With the support of Bunier and Milou, two powerful figures in the White Tower of the Nine Rings, they are building their territory at a frantic pace, and there are no other abnormal actions at all.
But just when Tamil was about to completely let go of his worries, today he received information that a magic warship had appeared in the New Sprouts. Although judging from the course of the magic battleship, it should be taking Rasheng to the Elson Kingdom, but the sudden appearance of a powerful weapon of the level of the magic battleship still made the Tamil Duke have a faint bad premonition. Coupled with the faint feeling of being watched during this time, Tamil always felt as if something was about to happen.
"Is the Duke still worried about that little lord? Why don't I sneak into his territory and deal with him? Seeing Tamil's expression, the mage who was dressed in a black robe and hooded under Tamil and could barely see his face said coldly.
"No, Master Xia Zuo. His identity is too special to be completely sure, and we can't do it. Tamil shook his head and said with a resolute expression.
This black-robed gold-level mage Xia Zuo is the one who originally connected Tamil and the devil Diallo, and is now also a guest of the Tamil family. After the one-eyed shark pirates were cleared by Luo Sheng, Xia Zuo has been encouraging Tamil to attack Luo Sheng.
Tamil was very clear about Shazo's thoughts. Diallo, a projection clone of the devil's master, died in the hands of Luo Sheng, as long as he killed Luo Sheng, he could greatly please Diallo. As a believer and servant of Diallo, Xia Zuo certainly wanted to kill Luo Sheng at all costs.
Regardless of the fact that for Tamil, the situation is different. Although he cooperated with Diallo, and even took some benefits from Diallo, such as a body that has not declined after he is over eighty, but deep down, Tamil does not really believe in Diallo, and the relationship with Diallo is also cooperation and trading. The resources in the hands of the two sides are exchanged, and each takes what he needs.
In this case, Tamil has to consider the risks and costs when it comes to what to do. If Luo Sheng has been sure that he has found evidence of collusion with the devil, then in order to protect himself, even if Luo Sheng's identity is special, Tamil will do his best to kill people. But when it seemed that Luo Sheng probably didn't know it, it would be too cost-effective to risk exposure and kill a disciple of a legendary master.
"You have too many scruples. Xia Zuo said coldly: "If you don't kill him now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a chance after his territory is completed in the future." ”
The posture of the construction of Rasheng's territory is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary lords. When the construction of Rasheng's territory is completed and the personnel under his command are unified, the power may not be worse than that of ordinary earls. At that time, with the protection of his subordinates, and with the rumored strength of Luo Sheng who is no worse than the Golden Rank, even a Gold-level mage like Xia Zuo dare not say that he will definitely be able to deal with Luo Sheng in the Sprout Territory.
"There's no rush on this. With so many people in the past, Classee can always find the right opportunity for us. Tamil said confidently.
Grasping Rassen's desire to expand the Northland trade route, and giving Klaas, a subordinate in charge of smuggling in the Northland, to Rasson is Tamil's most proud move. With Klaas as a channel, Tamil can continue to stuff people into the sprout collar, and then master the sprout collar's every move. As long as it takes a while, Tamil is sure that he will be able to grasp Rasen's every move, and at that time, it will be much easier to deal with Rassen.
"It's a pity that the Hokuriku trade routes!" said Tamil with a slight emotion at the mention of Klaas.
Before the fall of the one-eyed shark pirates, the smuggling trade routes within a radius of hundreds of miles in the North Continent were actually in the hands of the Tamils, and Klaas was one of the people in charge. And this is the main reason why there are such fierce pirates as the one-eyed shark, and the smuggling fleet is still endless.
Although the smuggling fleet and the cyclops pirates are enemies in the eyes of the people of the Hokuriku, in fact, they are two systems that cooperate with each other under the control of the Tamil, and they are both Tamil cash cows.
The one-eyed shark pirates used force to coerce those villages in the North Continent and plundered them directly, although they seemed to have gained a lot of money and were notorious, but they had no way to sell the stolen goods, so they could only sell the stolen goods to the forces under the Tamil Duke at a low price, and the Tamil Duke earned more than the pirates for this alone.
Because of the presence of cyclops pirates, the smuggling fleets of other forces will be constantly attacked and plundered by pirates, while the Tamil fleet can safely cross the North Sea and reach the North Continent. Moreover, there is a threat of pirates, and the smuggling fleet can openly drive up prices and squeeze the people of Hokuriku.
While the smuggling fleet was trading, it would also probe the information of various villages, ports, and even other smuggling teams, and then this information was handed over to the Cyclops pirates by the Tamil Duke, who offset part of the payment and pointed out to the Cyclops pirates those worthy of looting.
Relying on this cooperation model, after reaching a deal with the devil, Tamil's financial resources have increased tremendously by sucking the bones of the people of the Northcontinent. It was also with this financial strength that Tamil raised a large number of private troops and became the most powerful Duke of Taylor Kingdom.
It's a pity that after the one-eyed shark pirates were completely wiped out by Rasen, not only did Tamil have no income from selling stolen goods, but also the business of the smuggling fleet would soon be robbed by Rasheng with the support of the Elson Kingdom, and this financial route was basically cut off. That's why Tamil was willing to send such a capable subordinate as Klaas to Rasen's territory as a spy.
"Sooner or later, I'm going to kill this Rasen!" Tamil said through gritted teeth, thinking of his lost wealth.
"If you want to kill Senior Brother Luo Sheng, you don't have this chance!"
