Chapter 272: A force to be reckoned with

There's always something in this world, and whether you're crazy about love or disdainful, it's there, never too much for you to ignore.

Soth, when he was depressed, inadvertently discovered this power.

Leaving the cottage of Red Maple Mountain, Soth wandered aimlessly through the territory of Duke Barot, and he did not know where to go.

The city is full of his wanted notices, and there is no place for him to hide without shelter.

Therefore, Sos can only wander in the wilderness, and from time to time find a remote mountain village to replenish food.

However, after ten days, the originally blonde, blue-eyed, handsome and extraordinary man has become a wild man.

A fanged tiger didn't last a single round under Soth's black iron fists, and his brain was blown out and his body lay on the ground.

Soth was just about to peel off the tiger skin, pull out the tiger teeth, and then eat a delicious meal of tiger meat, when he suddenly heard someone approaching.

In an instant, Soth pulled out a black iron sword from his waist and looked warily into the bushes beside him.

"My lord, my lord, don't do it, don't do it!" a smiling middle-aged fat man with a round and amiable body squeezed out of the bushes with difficulty, waving his hand at Soth.

"Who are you, and why are you here?" Soth was bearded at this time, and his hair was scattered on both sides of his face, except for a pair of eyes with a slight vicissitudes of life, he couldn't tell that he was the same person as the handsome man before.

Therefore, Soth is not afraid of others recognizing him.

The middle-aged fat man smiled kindly, his small eyes dripping, glanced at the head of the fanged tiger killed by Soth, saw the shattered skull, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"This lord, I am the butler of the eldest daughter of the Duke of Balotte, and also the butler of the eldest son of the Duke of Van Diese, because of the death of the Grand Duke of Barot, my wife went home to visit Mrs. Barot, and happened to see the lord you killed the fanged tiger with your bare hands, and felt that such a powerful black iron life of yours was buried in the mountains and wilderness, and it was too condescending, so I called me to come down and see if I could make a deal with my lord. ”

Sos frowned, the eldest daughter of Duke Barot, married to Duke Van Dise's eldest son in the early years, Duke Barot was killed by His Majesty Platinum, as a daughter, it is normal to come back to visit, this is logical.

"How could your lady see me kill the fanged tiger? It's two kilometers from the Great Road!" Soth wondered.

The middle-aged fat man smiled and said:

"Although the adult is a life evolutionary, and his achievements are extraordinary, but he doesn't know much about the new things in the aristocracy, my wife has a divine eye, not to mention two kilometers, that is, ten kilometers can see the outline of a person's facial features!"

"God's Eye?" Sos looked at the middle-aged fat man suspiciously, this kind of thing Sos had never heard of, he could see the outline of a person's facial features from ten kilometers away, if this kind of thing was used in the military, it was simply an artifact!

"Your Excellency doesn't have to doubt it, follow me to see my wife, and you will naturally know that the Divine Eye is a secret weapon in the imperial army, if it weren't for the fact that my Grand Duke Van Dise was once a heavy reward under His Majesty Platinum, there are many such things, and I would not be willing to give this thing to my eldest son, and it was given to my wife as a gift by my eldest son!"

The middle-aged fat man didn't seem to know what to keep secret, and his words were full of showing off.

Soth lowered his head slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he felt that he had nowhere to go anyway, nothing to do, and following this fat man to see the Divine Eye could be regarded as reconnaissance of the military power of the empire.

"It's okay to go and see your wife, but you just said that you want to make a deal, what kind of deal?"

The middle-aged fat man pointed to the tiger skin that had been peeled off by Soth, and then pointed to Soth.

"My wife likes tiger skins very much, and this kind of intact tiger skin without a single wound is a great gift for my wife's brother. ”

"And this adult, yourself, my wife went back to her parents' house to visit relatives, and there was a lack of guards around her, and I want to hire you to give my wife a façade!"

Sos couldn't understand this, the wife of the eldest son of a duke in the hall actually lacked guards, and when she returned to her mother's house, what did she need to do to protect the façade?

The middle-aged fat man saw Soth's doubts, and immediately opened his mouth to explain, as if he would not give up until he revealed his master's secret.

"My Duke Van Diser is a die-hard supporter of His Majesty Platinum, and it is all thanks to His Majesty Platinum that he has today's status, and he has always respected His Majesty Platinum. ”

"But the eldest son married the eldest daughter of the Duke of Barot, and now the Duke of Barot was beheaded by His Majesty Platinum, my duke was unwilling to have anything to do with the Barot family anymore, but the lady wanted to go back to her mother's house to visit, the duke was not easy to stop, but he did not send someone to escort him, so he was accompanied only by the guards of the eldest prince of my family, except for the personal guard of the eldest prince, there was no black iron life, this time the mother's family has no face, and my wife can't afford to lose this person!"

This fat man is very verbose, but the information revealed between his words has already made Soss brain make up a ninety episode of aristocratic family ethics drama.

"Tiger skin, give you ten Poseidon big gold coins, this is definitely a high price!"

"And my lord, if you agree, escort my wife to visit her relatives until she returns to the Duke of Van Disse, five hundred Seagod big gold coins, if it weren't for my wife's eagerness to find someone, the average black iron peak life would not have this price!"

The fat man was happy and offered a high price!

Soth nodded immediately:

"Okay, I promise!"

With this promise, the fat man's amiable face immediately became intimate, and he approached Soth, and his round arm put on Soth's shoulder, as if he was hugging affectionately to express his enthusiasm.

But when his head was closer, the middle-aged fat man turned his back to the direction of the road and whispered:

"Nightingale Holm asked me to come to you, with the help of Duke Van Diese, let you change your name, your original identity can no longer be used!"

"What I said just now, you have to think carefully, Mrs. Van Dyse is not easy to fool, you should pay attention to what you say!"

Soth suddenly realized, no wonder this fat man said everything, dared to say anything, it turned out to be Uncle Home's man!

"Understood!" replied simply.

Then the middle-aged fat man slammed back and complained:

"I said, brother, how many days have you not taken a bath, this smell can choke people!"

"Hurry up and find a place with water to wash, I'll go find clothes for you, and then put them here, we'll wait for you on the road, hurry!"

Soth looked at the fat man embarrassedly, looked down and sniffed his armpits, and found that the smell was indeed unacceptable.

Nodding, Soth went to a nearby water source to take a bath, and the middle-aged fat man quickly returned to the main road with a flexibility that did not fit his body shape at all.

A regular army of 500 men guarded a luxurious carriage, and a team of ten wagons parked on the road, and next to the luxurious carriage, there was also a heroic knight to guard.

The fat man reappeared in the convoy, smiled kindly at the knights who had seen it, and knocked on the door of the luxurious carriage.

"Madame, I'm back!"

A waxy sound sounded in the car, coquettish to the bone.

"The butler come in and talk!"

The fat man immediately ripped open the door and jumped into the frame.

The space of the carriage is very large, and the design is very reasonable, Mrs. Van Diesel and the two maids stay in it without any sense of crowding, even the middle-aged fat butler comes up, and it is also very relaxed.

The middle-aged fat man got into the carriage, raised his eyes and glanced at Mrs. Van Diese, who was leaning on the cushions of the soft couch, then lowered his head and said:

"Madame, I have found that Soth, and everything is going well, as the Duke had arranged. ”

Mrs. Van Diser immediately straightened her waist and asked nervously:

"Where is he?"

"The smell on my body was too big, I was afraid that he would smoke Madame, so I asked him to take a bath, so I came back to report to Madame and prepared a set of clothes for him by the way. ”

Mrs. Van Diesse relaxed again and asked with some hesitation:

"My father is dead, my eldest brother must regard my younger brother as a mortal enemy, if he does what the duke orders, can he really protect my mother and sister, and let my younger brother sit on the throne of Duke Barot?"

The middle-aged fat man was still smiling kindly, but a pair of small eyes were rolling and said:

"Madam, rest assured, as long as you do everything according to the Duke's orders, you will be foolproof!"

Mrs. Van Dise was still a little hesitant and said:

"I know I shouldn't doubt the Duke, but with the power of the Duke of Van Diese alone, can it really influence the choice of the heir to the title of Duke of Balot? It seems that the relationship between the Duke and Her Majesty the Empress and the nobles of the imperial capital is not close!"

The middle-aged fat man smiled and said:

"Madam, what you said is right, the Duke has never liked Her Majesty the Empress and the nobles of the imperial capital, but behind the Duke is His Majesty Platinum, and Duke Barot borders the Principality of Platinum, if Duke Platinum says a word, Her Majesty the Empress should also consider it carefully, especially at this time!"

When Mrs. Van Dise heard the name of His Majesty Platinum, her face was slightly gloomy, it was this Majesty Platinum who killed her father!

"Your Majesty Platinum! Without this Majesty Platinum, nothing would have happened, and my eldest brother would not have had a chance to inherit the ducal domain, but my father's favorite is my younger brother!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged fat man's face became serious, he raised his head, looked at Mrs. Van Diese, and said in a serious tone:

"Madam, I think that before the punishment, the Duke and the Grand Duke have already unified their understanding of His Majesty Platinum with you!"

"If you have forgotten, ma'am, allow me to repeat that His Majesty Platinum is the benefactor and edifier of the Van Diesse family, the current backer and source of two-thirds of the financial income of the Van Diesse family, and the only person who can help your half-brother to sit on the throne of Duke Barot. ”

"So, your attitude towards His Majesty Platinum should be one of awe and gratitude, do you have a different opinion?"

Mrs. Van Diser looked at the middle-aged fat man angrily for a moment, then looked away in frustration and said:

"Yes, what you said is correct, respectable nobleman of His Majesty Platinum, I understand, I agree!"

The middle-aged fat man makes the final determination:

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure, you're right, my brother wants to sit in Duke Barot's seat, and His Majesty Platinum is the only one who can help us!

After Mrs. Van Diese gave the middle-aged fat man the answer he wanted, the middle-aged fat man's face regained his amiability.

"Very well, ma'am, and don't show anything unusual in front of this Soth, he's just an idle knight you've hired to fill the scene and keep you safe!"

Mrs. Van Diser nodded, and asked with some curiosity:

"Isn't this Soth a wanted criminal by the Holy See and the Empire? Since His Majesty Platinum knows that he is in this area, why didn't he send someone to capture him to please Her Majesty the Empress, but instead stuffed him into my ranks, and even gave me a divine eye for this, which is incredible. ”

The middle-aged fat man showed a weird smile on his face and said:

"Who knows? ”

"We just need to know what we can gain by doing what His Majesty Platinum says, and that's enough, isn't it?"

Mrs. Van Diser nodded, then spread her hands indifferently and said:

"You're right, it doesn't matter what he's for, as long as His Majesty Platinum can help my brother become the Duke of Barot, and then let me shave that bastard with a knife, nothing else is very important!"

The ruthlessness suddenly exposed in Mrs. Van Diese's words made the middle-aged fat man stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile:

"Dear Madam, I don't think you would want to see your bastard brother being cut to pieces with a knife, and you were in a coma for a long time while watching a chicken's head cut off......"

"Get out!" said Mrs. Van Diser angrily and drove the fat man out of the carriage.

The fat man rubbed the red marks on his face that had been smashed by the makeup box, and walked out of the carriage with a helpless expression, and then saw the mocking look of the knight on the side.

"Hey, bastard boy, is it worth being so happy to see your father and me ugly? Looks like you want your mother to introduce you to an ugly girl!"

As a knight who is the son of a middle-aged fat man, he hurriedly turned around, and sure enough, his father's joke was not so good.

The middle-aged fat man took off a knight's uniform from the truck, quickly entered the forest next to the road, returned to the place where Soth hunted the fanged tiger, put down the clothes, and quickly returned to the convoy.

"Bastard boy, that Soth is an important person, you can just treat him as a roaming knight who has been hired on weekdays, don't have a good attitude, and don't offend him, understand?"

The knight nodded when he heard his father's instructions, but did not speak.

The fat man was still not at ease, and continued to instruct his son:

"Don't show any contempt because of his identity, this kind of person is extremely sensitive, you have something wrong, he can sense it, this opportunity is rare, if it is done well, Daddy can use some relationships to operate you into the Platinum Knights, but if something goes wrong, all this will be in vain, for your dreams, and for Daddy's gold coins, you kid don't make mistakes!"

Hearing the four words of the Platinum Knights, the knight's eyes lit up, and he happily agreed:

"Don't worry, Dad, everything will be fine, I must enter the Platinum Knights, that is the First Knights of the Poseidon Empire!"
