"Cornell is here?" Alan said with some surprise, what is the purpose of Cornell coming to Huaxia at this time?

"Ask him to come in. Alan said to the guard who came in to report, and then changed his words: "Forget it, I'd better go out to meet him." ”

Originally, Alan didn't want to welcome him out, after all, the few direct or indirect contacts between himself and Cornell were not pleasant, and Cornell was also one of the suspects who attacked him, so even if he waited for him to come over in the hospital, it was not too much.

However, after thinking about it, the visitor was a guest, and it would be too stingy to do it himself, and finally Alan decided to go out to meet him.

Alan walked out of the courtyard gate with the guards, and Cornell and Algef stood not far from the courtyard gate. There were also two guards standing behind the two, although Alan didn't know the specific strength of these two guards, but from the feeling of oppression generated by the two standing there, he knew that these two people were definitely not weak.

"Alan, Senlan, you dare to make a show when the eldest young master comes to visit in person, is this the hospitality of your Huaxia Ling?" As soon as they met, Algerf yelled at Alan.

Alan shook his head, this Algef is such a brain-dead look every time, after seeing it a few times, Alan doesn't want to pay attention to him now.

"Master Cornell, welcome to Huaxia Ling, I don't know what advice you have. Alan said towards Cornell.

"Young Master Allen is polite, come uninvited, please don't be surprised. Cornell was also kind: "Also, Aljeff is this virtue, I hope Master Allen doesn't take it to heart." ”

Alan smiled: "Please go inside." ”

Keeping guests standing at the door all the time is not hospitality.

Several people entered the courtyard, and Alan and Cornell sat down at the stone tables in the courtyard.

"This time I came to Huaxia Territory, it really opened my eyes," Cornell said: "It is said that this was a small village before, and it is not easy for Young Master Allen to develop the territory to this level in just three months." ”

Cornell's exclamation is absolutely heartfelt, he thinks that he puts himself in Allen's position and has the same resources as Allen, and he will definitely not be able to do Allen's level in terms of territorial development, and he can't even compare to half of Allen's! This made Cornell, who had always been arrogant, deeply shocked. He didn't know that if Alan didn't have the help of the Most Lordship System, he might not be doing as well as him.

After all, Alan was just an ordinary person on the earth before he crossed over, but Cornell received this education since he was a child, even if Alan received more than ten years of modern education, he may not be better than these local nobles.

"It's just luck," Alan said, "if it's Young Master Cornell, he will definitely do better than me." ”

Cornell only thought that Alan was modest, and smiled: "Young Master Allen, you are too modest. ”

"I heard you were attacked on your way back?" Connell asked.

Alan nodded, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Yes, fortunately, I have a big life, otherwise Young Master Cornell may not be able to see me now." ”

"Do you know who did it?"

"I don't know," Alan shook his head, "but I have interrogated two specially left living mouths, and they are both determined to be instructed by you, Young Master Connell." ”

After Allen finished speaking, his eyes were fixed on Cornell, trying to see some clues from Cornell's face.

"Ridiculous!" Algef suddenly interjected, "How could our young master do such a thing of stealing chickens and touching dogs." ”

"Young Master Allen, you won't believe it, will you?" asked Connell with a smile.

"I really don't believe it," Alan said, "But in the area of Nice City, only the City Lord's Mansion can send this lineup, right?"

Of course, Alan knew that it was not the City Lord's Mansion that could send this lineup, and he just said it on purpose to see how Cornell would react.

"After all, Master Allen has only been in the Nice City area for more than three months, and he is not familiar with the forces in the Nice City area," Cornell said: "Why don't you take this opportunity today to tell you about the major forces in the Nice City area." ”

Alan chuckled, "Listen up." ”

Cornell Ken is a free commentator, which is naturally very good, just to understand the forces in the Nice City area, and you will not be ignorant when you encounter it in the future.

"There are a total of seven small cities and twenty-three territories in the area of Nice City, and there are countless other small territories and small villages and towns. ”

"The strongest of them is naturally our City Lord's Mansion, occupying the only big city Nice City and three small cities, and there are countless other villages and towns, as long as there is no place where the lord is divided, in principle, it is under the control of our City Lord's Mansion. ”

"The other four small cities are in the hands of the four most powerful of the twenty-three collars. ”

"The four collars are the Regchi Collar, the Red Rose Collar, the Ecuadorian Collar, and the San Zel Collar. Among them, the Reich Territory is the strongest, the Red Rose Collar is second, and the Ecuadorian Territory and the Saint Zer Territory are almost the same in strength. Each of these four territories has the strength to send the squad that attacked you. ”

Allen's heart moved when he heard this, and he originally thought that the Red Rose Collar was the strongest in the Nice City area except for the City Lord's Mansion, but he didn't expect that there was a Ricky Collar that was stronger than the Red Rose Collar. This Leech Collar has never been heard of by Alan before.

"In addition to the strongest four collars, the remaining nineteen collars are different in strength, and I will not introduce the names of these collars to you one by one, Young Master Allen. ”

"However, looking at the development of your Huaxia Collar, I believe that soon the twenty-three Collar in the Nice City area will be changed to the Twenty-Four Collar. In fact, the current strength of Huaxia leaders is almost the same as that of those who are weaker. ”

"According to what you said, Master Connell, the mastermind behind the attack on me is likely to be one of the four powerful leaders?" Alan asked.

"Not necessarily," Cornell said, "The remaining nineteen of the stronger ones also have this strength." ”

"Moreover, in addition to the City Lord's Mansion and the Twenty-Three Lords, there is a force that cannot be ignored in the Nice City area, and I suspect that it is this force that attacked you!"

"What force?" asked Allen, with a cold glint in his eyes. He believed that Cornell would not be untargeted, and since Cornell said that it was likely to be this force that attacked him, then this force was definitely very suspicious.

"Actually, you've been in contact with them," Connell said, "and that's the banditry that is active in the area of Nice City." ”

"Thieves?" Cornell replied, completely unexpected.

"Aren't these thieves the strongest group of rabble with the strength of a third-level warrior?" asked Allen suspiciously.

"You're talking only about the outermost thieves, and even the thieves I'm talking about aren't in a circle at all. Cornell Road.

"Do you think that if the strength of these bandit groups is really so weak, our City Lord's Mansion and the major territories will tolerate their arrogance until now? If they are really so weak, even a stronger territory can easily destroy them all!"

"A few years ago, our City Lord's Mansion organized an operation to encircle and suppress thieves, you should have heard of it, right?" asked Connell.

Alan nodded: "I've heard a little, but I've heard that the effect is not great." ”

"Then I'll tell you why it doesn't work!"

"In that operation, our City Lord's Mansion united several large and small territories to jointly send troops, wanting to eliminate all the bandit forces in the area of Nice City in one fell swoop. We also thought of these thieves as a rabble at first, but we were shocked by the strength of these thieves. ”

"In the process of encircling and suppressing the thieves' group, our City Lord's Mansion and the major territories killed nearly 300 fifth-order troops, more than 500 fourth-order troops, nearly 1,000 third-order troops, and countless other low-level troops! ”

"And most of the three hundred and fifth-order troops who died in the battle were the 'Rose Knights' of the Red Rose Leader, and it was precisely because of this huge loss that the strength of the Red Rose Leader was surpassed by the Richmond Territory. ”

Cornell's words shocked Allen deeply, which simply subverted his perception of thieves!

"They have such a strong strength, why do they want to be thieves?" Alan asked in shock and puzzlement.

I really don't understand, these thieves have such a strong strength, if they join the kingdom, the kingdom will at least give them a large territory, right? Isn't this much better than being a thief?

"Because they're not real thieves at all!" said Cornell solemnly, "they're just using the identity of thieves to lurk in the area of Nice City, and I still don't know what they're up to." ”

"I used to suspect that they were sent by some big power in the kingdom for some purpose outside the area of Nice City, and even suspected the royal family of the royal capital. ”

"However, after all these years of continuous investigation, I have discovered," said Cornell's face unusually cautious, "I found that these people are likely to be sent by other kingdoms!"

"Other kingdoms?" Alan was once again shocked by Connell's words, "Why did the other kingdoms send people to lurk here pretending to be thieves, and for what purpose?"

Cornell spread his hands: "I don't know. ”

"Didn't you report to the royal capital?" asked Allen.

"Of course it has been reported," Connell said, "but the royal capital's attention is focused on the border with other kingdoms, where is there any bother to estimate our side." ”

"Coupled with the fact that these people are lurking here, but they have not made any big moves, the king is also suspicious of our words, and just orders our city lord's mansion to pay close attention. ”

Connell was also full of helplessness when he said this, the strength of the other party hidden in the Nice City area is likely to be stronger than their City Lord's Mansion, what is the use of their City Lord's Mansion paying close attention!

Alan smiled bitterly: "If it weren't for listening to Young Master Connell's words, I wouldn't have known that the situation in the Nice City area was so complicated. It seems that it is still difficult to say whether we can develop with peace of mind in the future. ”

Alan originally wanted the Demacian heavy infantry to go out and sweep away all the bandit forces in the vicinity, but now that he thinks about it, he is really a little scared. The thief force is so strong, if the Demacian heavy infantry is really sent to sweep it, I am afraid it will be a meat bun beating a dog, and there will be no return.

Didn't you hear Cornell say that in the previous anti-bandit operation, there were nearly 300 soldiers in the fifth-order army alone? That's 300 real fifth-order soldiers!

And Alan also agreed with Cornell's speculation, and it was probably the thief force hiding here who sent people to attack him. Because if they have any purpose for hiding here, then it is obviously in their interest to provoke a fight between themselves and the City Lord's Mansion.

Moreover, only these people can be so unscrupulous!
