Chapter Twenty-Six: The Lion Opens His Mouth

The relocation of Toby Town progressed very quickly, and with the cooperation of the Terraguls and the Giants, even the city walls were torn apart and removed, leaving only the Viscount's Mansion and the temple undemolished, leaving the town desolate. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Alek's envoy arrived at his destination, thinking he was in the wrong place, but he had been to Toby once, and he still remembered the deliciousness of the Yellowbeard Tavern, the infinite charm of Heaven's Gate, and was ready to experience the pleasure of head-to-toe again, but there was nothing here. There are no workshops, no inhabitants, no markets, no armies, and even more dead and silent than the clay city that has just experienced a volcanic eruption.

The envoy looked at something strange parked in the square, a wooden boat with a huge air bag on it, which made him even more uneasy, could it be that the town had been attacked by some unknown ?With a feeling of unease, he came to the front of the Viscount's Palace, and the envoy finally breathed a sigh of relief, because he found that there were two guards standing guard at the door.

Brian is talking to the Great Elder of the Goblins, tomorrow the airship test flight, Billin will take this thing and fly to Aegis City, the Viscount hopes that the old man can open his mind before leaving, and not bring the experience of the goblins to the grave.

"Great Elder, my dear, have you lived here for a while, have you felt discrimination and injustice, have you felt insecure, and have you been dissatisfied with your life?" asked Brian like a cannon.

"No, my lordship, the goblins get along well with the humans, and they are treated very well. Billin admits this, "Every goblin thanks you for saving our lives and making the right arrangements. ”

"Not only that, but I also sent people to search for your lost people, and asked Captain Grant to lead the soldiers to attack the monsters and reclaim your beloved mechanical city. Brian said, "Is this the case, still not gaining the trust and friendship of the goblins? If you don't give me the gunpowder formula, the guerrilla mercenary group has killed nearly a hundred people in Machine City, but they haven't driven away the Chimera and the two-headed dragon." ”

"I have discussed it with several elders, and everyone still feels that it is necessary to be cautious, once the gunpowder reaches the hands of humans, the world will no longer be at peace, and it may be blown to pieces. "Goblins are stubborn.

"I'm ......," Brian was speechless for a moment, and swallowed a curse into his stomach, "In this case, it's okay not to tell the humans, I must immediately configure sixty powder tubes, the kind mounted on a strong crossbow, and the power must be strong enough, and then transported by airship to the camp near the machine city, otherwise I will have to announce the withdrawal of the army." ”

"Okay, what about the materials?" Billing finally agreed, thinking about it.

"The materials have been shipped downstairs at the Viscount's Palace, and you can go and craft them now. Brian said.

Brian watched Billin leave, shook his head, and suddenly a very small scouting eye appeared above his head, so small that it was almost invisible to the naked eye, and under the effect of the realization of the will, the "eye" could swim at will, it floated above the goblin Grand Elder, followed him, and went downstairs together.

Brian smiled and went to Estrid's room, nodding to her, and the girl took out the mirror and began to observe the record, the process of making gunpowder from several goblins was clearly shown in the mirror.

Another strange woman has been sitting on the window, also fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a power suit, delicate facial features, slightly dark skin, and a hint of coldness in her eyes, she is Peggy, the daughter of Marion, the vice president of the Undercurrent Killer Guild, and the regular contact of Undercurrent and Fiefdom. The little girl stretched out her palm and asked Brian for money. "Lord Viscount, I don't think three diamonds are enough, it must be four. ”

Brian stared at the girl with wide eyes: "You will sit on the ground and raise the price, three diamonds are already a high price, if it weren't for my worry, I wouldn't agree." ”

"But don't forget, we originally shipped the goods to the mining area of Clay City, and when we got there, you were gone, and we said that we were going to transport it to Toby Town, how much trouble did it add and how much work did it take?" Peggy didn't give up, "The most important thing is that you never take me as an important contact in your eyes, and every time you explain something, you don't even say goodbye, you just turn off the mirror crystal, and I should raise the price for this." ”

Brian took out three diamonds from the leather pocket on his waist, placed them in Peggy's hand, and then made a polite farewell between nobles, and said, "Goodbye." ”

"You ......," Peggy said suddenly, jumping down from the window and stealing away, "there's a carriage coming." ”

"It's the flag of our Emperor Alik, and what is he sending an envoy for?" Brian wondered, "stay in this room first, and wait until I'm done seeing them before I leave, so as not to be discovered." ”

After the envoy waited for the guards to report the release, he took two people to the second floor, knocked lightly on the door of the Viscount's room, Brian opened the door, and the envoy immediately smiled, and after a period of greeting and compliment, he explained that the Emperor Alik needed the help of the Viscount.

"If you need my help, what can I help? You have also seen the situation of the fiefdom, Lord Envoy, the dwarves have ruined everything here, and I am fighting them to the death. Brian was embarrassed, "Besides, our Emperor has a heavy army, which is enough to compete with the church, and I can't do anything with just a few people." ”

"No, no, no, the emperor has heard of the prestige of the Lord, the Lord at the Dante Pass, with only 1,500 people, to block the attack of tens of thousands of people in the Xiangri Empire, and the army of the Lord is enough to subdue the entire Empire. The envoy said, "As soon as the miracle came out, many of Seneh's generals and sergeants were terrified and went to the church, and the emperor of Alik now has less than 10,000 troops, and the church has sent the famous army of wild lions to crusade, but I am afraid that I will not be able to resist it." ”

After the envoy finished speaking, he asked the small suitcase to be carried over and brought to Brian, and when he opened it, he saw that it was full of precious stones, diamonds, gold, and even the ornaments that Toby Chamber of Commerce had originally given to the imperial concubine.

Brian unceremoniously took the box, pondered for a moment, and said: "It's okay to let me send troops, I still have two thousand soldiers to support the emperor, but just this small suitcase can't make me excited." ”

"This ...... This ......," beads of sweat appeared on the envoy's forehead, "what else do you need to help?"

"You must know that once I send troops, it will be an open confrontation with the church, which is a life-threatening matter, how can I do it when the price is low?" Brian stretched out a finger, "Let your family, bring another hundred diamonds, I can consider it." ”

"A hundred!" the envoy couldn't stand still, "That's 10,000 gold coins, and Sacred Heart City will be hollowed out by you." ”

"No, our dear Emperor, there is definitely more than that, you can remind him, Envoy. Will the money in the Emperor's hands be robbed and divided by the church after the defeat of the war, or will it be spent on the blade now, at least some of it will be preserved in the future? Brian said.

"Good...... Well, I'll go to the emperor right away and give you an answer as soon as possible. ”

Brian politely sent the envoy away, hid the suitcase, and came to Estrid's room, where the girl handed over the recipe that had been recorded to him, and the viscount happily took another diamond, threw it to Peggy, and said, "I'm suddenly happy today, so I'll give you another diamond, but I won't make an example." ”

Peggy was overjoyed, accepted the diamond and said, "It's really generous, no wonder my father said that cooperating with you has unlimited prospects." ”

The female assassin rolled over the building and vanished in an instant. (To be continued.) )
