Chapter 164: Rutgers' Promise
After Alan left, he walked straight out of the Lord's Mansion to the walls of the city of St. Zel, and watched the soldiers in the city pick up the pieces.
Looking at the city of Saint Zel, Alan smiled lightly, this city, he must take it in his hands.
The city of St. Zell is on the edge of the Huaxia Territory, and geographically speaking, it is very suitable for the Huaxia Territory, and will not divide the territory of the Huaxia Territory into two parts.
Moreover, once he owns a small city, Eren can complete the main quest, which rewards him with a Territory Guardian Beast.
Although Eren didn't know what the Territory Guardian Beast was, he knew from the name that it must be very powerful.
Guardian beasts, how can they be guarded if they are not strong?
After a while, Sophia followed.
"Alan, I'm sorry, my father ......"
Sophia pulled the corners of her clothes with both hands, bit her lip, and said aggrievedly. Before he finished speaking, tears were already pouring down.
Women's tears are one of the things that Allen can't see the most, and seeing Sophia crying at this time, Allen's heart suddenly softened, and he sighed and said, "Forget it, it's not your fault." ”
"Alan, don't worry!" Sophia wiped her tears and said firmly: "I will definitely let my father pay you!"
"No," Alan shook his head, "he's your father after all, so there's no need for me to turn your father and daughter against each other." ”
"But you're ...... paid," Sophia said.
"Don't get me wrong!" Alan said hurriedly, "I never said I was paid like that. ”
"I'll do it another way, get my money back. ”
Sophia was shocked when she heard this: "Alan, you won't ...... my father. Please spare my father!"
As she spoke, Sophia's tears fell again.
Apparently. Sophia misunderstood what Eren meant.
Sophia's reaction made Alan break out in a cold sweat and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Alan said: "Miss Sophia, are you trying to be crooked! I am an upright Lord Allen, how can I be that kind of unscrupulous person." ”
Hearing Allen's words, Sophia burst into tears and laughed: "That little woman thanks Master Allen a lot!"
A joke made the awkward atmosphere between Alan and Sophia a much lighter.
On the other side, Sidney and his second daughter, Jessia, found Crett and Rutgers through the soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion.
When the two found Kret, Kret was still slashing the dwarf on the ground with a knife, and most of the dwarf's right arm had been cut off.
The long screams had caused the dwarves to burst their vocal cords. Now he can only make a hoarse moan.
"Do you keep screaming?" said Krett teasingly, "I said earlier, if you call too early, you won't have the strength to scream later." ”
Suddenly, Sidney's heart jumped, and Jessia let out a scream and closed her eyes.
Jessia's screams caught the attention of Crayt and Rutgers, who stopped and looked at Sidney and Jessia with cold eyes.
Jessia closed her eyes. Sidney, who did not come into contact with Kret's eyes, was terrified when he saw Kret's eyes.
"Gram, Master Kret. Rutgers butler. Sidney said in a trembling voice.
Sidney was very familiar with Kret, and he really couldn't understand how a sunny boy like Krett could become what he was now. He doesn't know yet. Cornell had been killed in battle, and Benedict had been taken to the royal capital to stand trial.
Krett ignored Sidney. With a swing of the knife, he continued to torture the dwarves on the ground.
Rutgers greeted him with a smile: "It turned out to be Lord Sidney." Congratulations on getting out of trouble. ”
Rutgers knew that Allen sent troops to attack the Blue Shirts, largely because he wanted to save Sidney, so he mistakenly thought that Allen attached great importance to Sidney. His current politeness to Sidney is largely due to Allen.
"Butler Rutgers, I want to see Master Benedict, I wonder where he is now?"
Sidney asked, he just wanted to get out of here quickly and get down to business with Lord Benedict. The Kreit in front of him is too frightening.
Didn't you see Jessia and don't dare to open her eyes now?
Kret, who was torturing the dwarf with a knife, was stunned when he heard Sidney mention his father's name.
Sidney glanced at Sidney with cold eyes, and a word blurted out of Kret's mouth.
"Get out!"
Crett is going crazy because of his father's departure, and now Sidney actually says that he wants to see Benedict, which is simply rubbing salt in Cret's wounds.
If Sidney and Alan came together, although Crett was crazy, he wouldn't dare to do so for Alan's sake, but if Sidney was alone, Clatter would have no scruples.
Sidney was so frightened by Cret's "roll" that he stood there staring at Clatter and Rutgers, at a loss.
Rutgers sighed lightly: "Lord Sidney, now the young master is in a bad mood, you can come with me for the time being." ”
With that, Rutgers took Sidney and Jessia into the distance.
Sidney was shocked to hear Rutgers call Crett a young master. In the past, Rutgers would only call Young Master Connell, and Crett would be called Third Young Master.
Could it be that something has happened to the City Lord's Mansion?
After moving away from Kret, Sidney turned to Rutgers and asked, "Steward Rutgers, Master Krett is he?"
Rutgers shook his head: "This is a family matter of our City Lord's Mansion, and Lord Sidney doesn't need to ask. ”
"Lord Sidney, the reason why you came to our City Lord's Mansion, I know very well, it is nothing more than for the territory of the Red Rose Domain. Tonight, our City Lord's Mansion will hold a lords' meeting in the Lord's Mansion of St. Zel, and we will discuss it carefully when the time comes. ”
"The lords of the other territories are also there?" Sidney asked, all he saw along the way just now were the soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion and the Huaxia Domain, and he did not see the soldiers of the other territories appear.
Rutgers smiled disdainfully: "I wasn't there, but I'll be there soon." ”
Rutgers's disdain is naturally aimed at the lords of the major territories.
As early as when the City Lord's Mansion was besieging the city under the city of St. Zel, the lords of the remaining territories in the Nice City area had either personally sent out their horses or sent the top officials of the territory to rush towards the city of St. Zell with the elite troops of the territory.
However, after they arrived near the city of St. Zel, they did not directly join the army of the city lord's mansion to participate in the battle, but hid in some hidden corners and began to watch.
If the City Lord's Mansion wins, they will naturally jump out immediately to share the fruits of victory. If the Lord's Mansion failed to attack the city, they would never appear under the city of St. Zel.
They thought they were hiding a secret, but how could they escape the eyes of the City Lord's Mansion?
In Rutgers's view, they are a bunch of villains who see the wind and rudder.
Sidney, who was also a lord, immediately figured out the joints, and at the same time understood that the content of tonight's meeting was nothing more than sitting in a row and dividing the fruit. And if you want to get back the territory of the Red Rose Territory, this is the best chance!
Sidney said to Rutgers, "Steward Rutgers, if the City Lord's Mansion is willing to help our Rose Family get back the territory tonight, I am willing to give the City Lord's Mansion three million gold coins as a reward!"
Sidney directly quoted his reserve price, and he was bound to win the Red Rose Territory, the family's former territory!
Rutgers's butler's eyes lit up when he heard this. Although the City Lord's Mansion is rich, three million gold coins is definitely a huge amount of money for the City Lord's Mansion.
"Lord Sidney rest assured," Rutgers said righteously, "The Red Rose Collar is the territory given to you by the kingdom to your Rose family, and no one else wants to touch half of it!"
By saying this, Rutgers proved that he had acceded to Sidney's request on behalf of the City Lord's Mansion.
After receiving Rutgers' promise, Sidney laughed: "Then thank Rutgers Steward and the City Lord's Mansion for their righteous words." ”
"When the rally ends tonight, three million gold coins will be presented immediately!" (To be continued......)
