Gomos sat on his golden chair, drinking delicious wine, and the butler was carrying the account book below to report to him, "Your Excellency, our mercenary group has recently attacked everywhere, and has robbed more than a dozen small mines and wood factories, the most valuable of which are two metasequoia wood factories and a gold mine, these have already arranged for people to take care of the mercenary union, as long as we provide the relevant procedures, we can transfer these mines and wood factories to our name."

Gomos nodded slightly, obviously very satisfied, "How much can these profits be?" The butler carefully flipped through them and hurriedly said, "The total value of these mines and wood mills should be more than 300 million gold coins, and if they are all mined at full capacity, they can increase our income by 40 million gold coins a year." ”

Gomos nodded again, "Is there any news from the Red Dragon?" Hearing this question, the butler seemed to be a little embarrassed, "The Red Dragon Mercenary Group, I'm afraid 、、、 wiped out the group." ”

This time, Gomos couldn't keep calm anymore, and couldn't help but lean down and stare at the butler, "How can this be?" "This, the subordinates are not very clear, but I heard that the red dragon was ambushed by the Beast Legion, the personal guard under the Grand Duke of Julio, because he participated in an internal struggle in the Duchy of Julio, and has been wiped out a few days ago. ”

Gomos couldn't help but smile slightly, "These idiots, Julio's little fox is not so easy to deal with, just relying on the countermeasures of those cats and dogs to overthrow the Duchy of Julio, it's just a dream." ”

"The old mines and woodworks of the Red Dragon were all worth a lot of money, and now they belong to whose name?" Hearing Gomos's question, the butler couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, the Rose Regiment was originally not on good terms with their Eagle Vulture Regiment, would Gomos be angry when he said it, and then spread his anger on his head? The butler hesitated for a moment and said, "It is said that it is said to be under the name of the Rose Regiment. ”

"Well, I guess it will be like this, this Julio is really a little fox, why don't you go and prepare two generous gifts, one for the Grand Duke Julio, after all, we are now on someone's land, now that he has quelled the civil strife, we should congratulate him, and if there is anything in the future, we will take care of it, and the other will be given to the Rose Group, telling them that we only want money, and we don't want to have any conflicts with them, let's do it." ”

The housekeeper hurriedly replied, but was stopped just when he wanted to leave, "Wait, I asked you to arrange a small gift for the Thunderbolt Mercenary Group, how about you?" "The subordinates have all done it, and now the Thunderbolt Mercenary Group has been completely restrained by that mine, and they can't move half a step at all." Gomos couldn't help but smile, "Okay, that's fine." ”

The butler looked at him, as if he had something to say, but he didn't dare to say it, Gomos couldn't help but say coldly, "If you have anything to say, just say it, I hate this kind of spitting and spitting." "My subordinates just don't understand, why don't you support the Thunderbolt Mercenary Group to attack the Mercenary City?"

"Hmph," Gomos sneered, "Actually, I have already guessed their plan, but a small Thunderbolt mercenary group is actually playing tricks in front of me, and wants to drag us together to sneak attack the mercenary city, saying that when the time comes, overthrow the Duchy of Julio and give us benefits, just imagine what benefit will it be to us even if we change that West of Lille County to sit in the position of Grand Duke?" This forest is like a treasure, who would be willing to take out the money in their pockets and give it to others, for the Thunderbolt Mercenary Group, it is just a tool to provide us with cheap labor, and now I don't want to lose him, so I use a little means to contain him, so that he can continue to be used by me, if he really participates, I am afraid that the end will be as miserable as the Red Dragon, it's not good now, he kept his mercenary group, and I can continue to get cheap labor from him. ”

"Your lord's view is really clever. "Don't you say that I forgot, tell those people to retreat, no need to besiege the Thunderbolt mercenary group anymore, but in the future, we have to send people to constantly harass them, this tiger we are too fat, we must control it at the right time, otherwise it will hurt people, you recently contacted me about the other two small groups in Calais, we can't rely on thunder and lightning alone to provide labor, this is too constrained, although they are small in that small mercenary group, but after all, they also have a channel to plunder slaves from Calais, with our help they can grow up soon, and then we can completely get rid of the trouble of thunder and lightning." 。 ”

"My lord, we have been working with Raiden for so many years, why are you still so worried about them?" Gomos looked at the butler, " Do you want to say that I am usually commensurate with the head friend of Raiden, why do you still beware of calculating him behind your back, in fact, there is nothing strange about this, everything is just interests, we are strangers in addition to interests, we can't be friends at all, and those who can become friends with our noble dark elves can only be those arrogant elves or arrogant dragons, but we disdain to associate with them, so in this world, all races are just interests with us, and there will never be real friends. ”

"I understand, then the subordinates will retire first. The butler said goodbye, but Gomos sat there thinking about his thoughts, according to the observation he had sent to the people, the murderer of his brother was now fighting on the front line, and before going to the front line, they had secretly entered the depths of the forest, what were they going to do? Judging by their route, were they going to explore the Mithril Mine? At that time, Gomos scoffed at this trip, countless people have been fighting the idea of that Mithril mine for so many years, but no one has ever succeeded, relying on that small B-rank mercenary group?

Originally, seeing that Reg returned to the mercenary city alone, and was wounded, he thought that their plan had failed and was injured by those powerful demonic beasts, and that damn Ye Shengxuan was more likely to be buried in the belly of demonic beasts, but he didn't expect this kid to appear miraculously, and his strength seemed to have improved, which had to make Gomos's heart move, could it be that they had conquered the demonic beasts there?

This completely made him nervous, Mithril is no better than refined iron, although he occupies the largest refined iron ore, but the entire mine combined can not catch up with the value of a large piece of Mithril, it is an endless treasure, and it must not fall into the hands of others.

Thinking of this, Gomos couldn't sit still any longer, he was busy snatching immediate benefits before, but now that the war has gradually calmed down, and the civil strife in the principality has subsided, there is no longer a chance for him to rob other people's mines and woodworks, so he set his sights on the tempting Mithril mine.

He really wanted to take someone to check it out now, but after calming down, he had a different feeling in his heart, was that Reg really injured in the first place? Or did he deliberately pretend to show it to others? You must know that there are a lot of eyes staring at that place, although many people don't know about the Mithril Mine, but it's not that no one knows, if he rashly takes someone there and really takes the Mithril Mine, wouldn't he pick up a hot potato? When the time comes, there will definitely be people who pay attention to find out and start harassing themselves constantly, even if they are not strong enough, can't they release the news?

After thinking about it, Gomos sat down again, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile, "This little deciduous mercenary group, I really underestimated you, secretly took the Mithril Mine but was not in a hurry to develop it, but ran to fight something, so that everyone who knew about the Mithril Mine had a delusion, hehe interesting, interesting." ”

Perhaps this is Gomos's weakness, he is always too scheming, he sees everything as a conspiracy, and his own arrogant personality does not believe anyone's words at all, so gradually he loses his way in his own illusions.

"Since you can, then I can too, when I secretly take it, I will also pretend to be seriously injured, and then release the news of the serious injury, so that no one will think that the Mithril Mine will fall into my hands, and I think that the demonic beasts where they are really fierce, and even I can't do anything about them, and others will not touch the mind of the mine again. Gomos took a beautiful sip from his glass, and then smiled intoxicatingly.

As for the deciduous mercenary group, the murderer of his younger brother will die at his own hands sooner or later, and now that the Grand Duke Julio has just quelled the civil strife, it is a sensitive period, so let them live for a few more days for the time being.

Thinking about all this, Gomos drained the wine in the wine glass, then got up and walked out, the decorated golden hall suddenly became empty, usually Gomos only stays here for a while when meeting guests or listening to the butler's account, most of the time it is idle here, I really don't know what this luxurious living room built with countless gold coins is for.

A few days later, Gomos secretly left the station with several masters of the regiment, and without even saying hello to the butler, their group went around the forest, seemingly going deep into the frozen swamp, but no one could imagine that they were just avoiding everyone's eyes and ears by somewhere, and then turned and went straight to the Mithril mine.

Of course, for these Sheng Xuan, he didn't know that at this moment, the fortress was full of wounded soldiers, and Luo Lun did not give them the task of changing their defenses, but with the reinforcement of 20,000 fresh troops, he sent them a few good doctors.

For the past few days, the Calais had been pressing, and Upton and Fred had no heart to fight this hopeless war, and the two of them either sighed sadly every day, or gathered together to discuss how to deal with King Theodore's rebuke.

After the injuries on Sheng Xuan's body healed, he felt that his strength had improved slightly, and he should be regarded as the middle level of the Holy Order, but if he wanted to break through the Holy Rank and reach the illusion realm, I don't know how long it would take, after all, the strength of Reg was only the peak of the Holy Rank now.

On this day, he got up early, took Alavi out of the fortress, and began to concentrate on practicing in a secluded place in a small valley next to him, and after this battle, they rushed to the gap on their own, if Shengxuan was allowed to fight Fred, maybe he would win, but it would be very difficult to win.

After a few days like this, it seemed to be as calm as water, but Sheng Xuan didn't know that an even bigger disaster was about to befall him.

Pound kept hurrying day and night, and finally returned to the Dharma Hall, as soon as he saw the Great Elder Gatiaro, he hurriedly knelt down, crawled to the front, and while crawling, tears were already raining down, "Great Elder, the subordinates are not doing well, ask the Great Elder to punish him." ”

Gatiaro looked at him coldly, "Hmph, you still know that things are not good, do you remember what I sent you to do? Don't think that I don't know what you did when you are in the dark canyon." ”

Hearing this, Pound was even more shocked, he knew the temper of the Great Elder, although he looked extremely gentle in front of people, but behind him, I am afraid that even the most poisonous black mamba did not have his viciousness.

He hurriedly crawled over and knelt on the ground and hugged the Great Elder's feet, crying while defending himself, "Great Elder, I was just confused for a while, I originally wanted to get some benefits from Erjun there so that I could come back to honor you, but I didn't expect that a few idiots in Erjun there would do such a safe thing, especially that Ryan, who was unwilling to ask Julio for troops, so he let things become like this, and finally caused bitter fruit and bitter death, not to mention it, and wasted the Great Elder's efforts." ”

Gatyaro listened to Pound's nonsense words, and couldn't help but snort coldly, Pound suddenly thought about it, and hurriedly said, "Although my subordinates have not done a good job in this matter, I have heard another news for you, your enemy is now stationed in the Helmet Mountain Fortress, do you want to 、、、?"

"What are you talking about?" As soon as Gatiaro heard this, he immediately aroused his pain, his only son died, how could this feud be forgotten? As the Grand Elder of the Dharma Temple under the temple, he was originally unable to get married, but Gatiaro fell in love with the priestess of a temple, and forcibly took possession of the woman by despicable means, and then had this son, although this matter was concealed for a long time, but in the end it became a secret that the whole empire did not open.

Because this matter is really important, the temple did not pursue this matter, but just pretended not to know, so Gatiaro directly took his only son to the temple and became a magic apprentice, to say that this child is really talented, although he entered the temple a little later, but soon mastered the two systems of magic, and in the apprenticeship test that year, it was found that he actually had the potential to become an elemental mage, which couldn't help but make Gatiaro even more favored.

However, this kid, after knowing his life experience, began to become arrogant and domineering, and spent all day drinking and drinking, and finally ended up with no bones left at the instigation of others, every time he thought of this, Gatiaro was heartbroken, but because he was always busy with the seizure of power during this time, he had no time and energy to take care of this hatred.

Hearing Pound's words today, he was immediately furious, and he couldn't help but look at Pound in a daze and asked, "Tell me, what kind of person is my enemy?"

Pound said carefully about some of the rumors he heard when he was in the military headquarters, and Gatiaro said calmly after listening to it, "Okay, I think you are still loyal, I won't punish you this time, although I lost the opportunity to control the mercenary city this time, but sooner or later I will take it over, now our strength is not enough to compete with the royal family, this matter is not so important, I am a little tired, you go down." ”

When Pound heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed, and then crawled out of the room, feeling like walking away from the ghost door.

When he got out of the door, Pang De couldn't help but hurriedly wipe the cold sweat on his face, his back was already soaked at this time, but when he finished tidying up, he immediately changed his appearance and walked away with his head held high.

Gatiaro sat there, thinking carefully about the Duchy of Julio, although it seemed that his plan had failed, but he had a way to deal with this Grand Duke of Julio, thinking of this, he couldn't help but show a sneer, "Julio, you little fox will fall into the palm of my hand sooner or later." ”

In the secret room, Gatiaro picked up the crystal wine bottle next to him and filled himself with a glass of wine, originally everyone who served in the temple was not allowed to drink, but in this secret room, he could naturally do whatever he wanted.

Looking at the statue of a woman next to him, a trace of tenderness suddenly appeared in his eyes, and the hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, and he stepped forward and gently stroked the statue's face, "Nasha, why did you leave like this, although I know the identity of you and me, we can't be together, but I 、、、, I really love you, and now that our son is gone, can you see him in heaven?"

As he spoke, Gatearo's eyes were filled with tears, he raised his hand and gently wiped the corners of his eyes, and then poured the glass of wine into his mouth in one gulp, but the original mellow wine felt extremely bitter at this time, "I must avenge this revenge." ”

When the words fell, he didn't see the force in his hand, and the crystal wine glass in his hand turned into dust and fell down, as if it had been burned to ashes by the flames.
