As he left the courtroom, Curt felt a change in the atmosphere. (Please search Bayi Chinese Net, the fastest updated novel website!) The inquisitors who had always greeted him did not show up, and they drew a line with Curt with their actions. It was a smart move, and Curt understood the implications. No matter how brilliant a rookie he is, in the eyes of others, he still can't compare to the long-established Jason.

So the Inquisitor chose to protect himself and began to distance himself from Curt. After all, they don't have a strong background, and if they are targeted by Jason, I'm afraid they will end up in a bad situation. Curt understood this very well, so he left the trial hall alone and returned to the Black Tower.

In the second-floor parlor of the Black Tower, Gordon, Cameron, Bloom, Cedric, and Thornton were already waiting. Most of them had worried expressions on their faces, except for Gordon and Frost Giant Bloom, who looked indifferent. Bloom was warlike by nature, and he didn't know what was so good about Thornton. Gordon said with a grin when Curt looked over:

"You should know you've overdone it, master. If someone else had done your 'great deeds,' I would have thought he was a madman." But from what I know of you, you're an expert at big upsets. The common man's beliefs don't work for you, so I'm still betting on you that you're going to win. Anyway, the opponent is just a high-level mage, and you've already put down more than half of that kind of goods. ”

"Thank you. ”

Curt nodded slightly, then swept his gaze over the rest. After listening to Gordon's words, Cameron and Cedric's faces improved a lot. Thornton's face became more and more gray under Curt's gaze, and finally he raised his hand and said:

"Sorry, I'm leaving. I don't like to be a traitor, but you don't stand a chance at all. ”

"Do you think you'll get out of here alive?"

Gordon pressed his hand to the hilt of his sword, and a sinister smile floated. As Thornton was on guard to retreat, Curt said quietly:

"Okay, take your people with you. Thank you, Thornton, at least you didn't plan to wait until the pinch to stab me again. ”

"You can't win, unreasonable fellow. ”

Thornton blushed and fell back to the door. He muttered with a look of honor and a heavy setback, waving his hands and shouting:

"The White Wolf, the Iceberg, and the White Bear Mercenary Group have all come, and they have fled. You've suffered heavy losses before you even started the war, what are you going to use to fight Jason?"

"Don't bother. ”

Curt watched Thornton leave nonchalantly, then motioned for Gordon to close the door. He looked around at the rest of the people, and then said in a flat tone:

"I know the doubts in your hearts, and it's really not a wise move to challenge Jason. So I'll just tell you one thing, I was instructed to do this by Master Xi, Lord Eoham. Now, who thinks I don't have a chance of winning?"

In an instant, the scene was in an uproar. The look of surprise on everyone's face was definitely a surprise piece of good news. At the same time, Curt clapped his hands and made a code. Randall the Faceless quietly appeared, standing like a ghost beside Curt.

Randall's appearance was the ironclad evidence of the Faceless Being's support for Curt, and she dispelled the last shred of doubt in everyone's minds. When Curt ordered everyone to leave, they all had a light-hearted smile and a mocking discussion about how stupid Thornton was when he was on the run.

"You're such a master liar. ”

When the door was closed, Randall undisguised. She sat down in her chair and said to Curt with a languid expression:

"You're going to fight Jason with those guys? Jason has a huge estate in the Thousand Laws City, and the Mercenary Guild is one of his assets. If necessary, Jason can assemble an army to deal with you. Those people just now were no different from bugs to Jason, and it was a no-brainer to clean them up. ”

"They are all my cronies, and I have no intention of sending them to death. ”

Curt spread his hands and sat down in another chair. He stared at Randall's azure eyes, and said in a solemn tone:

"And, I'm not lying. Since Lord Eorham has ordered me to help you solve your troubles, a small conflict should have been expected by him. I'm not going to fight Jason to the death, as long as he thinks it's not worth it to continue to let your son pester you. ”

“...... What do you rely on to get there?"

Randall narrowed his eyes and stared at Curt for a moment before speaking. Curt smiled at Randall, and then said calmly:

"Hit Jason first, but not so much that he can't get off the stage, and then it's talk and negotiation. Lord Eoreham's attitude is crucial, and he can influence Jason's actions. On my side, what needs to be done is to push Jason across the table. As long as Jason understands that he can't easily clean me up, he should compromise. After all, Jason is a conservative person, and he doesn't just give it a go. ”

"Sounds ideal, but you should know that Lord Eorham doesn't personally intervene in disputes between mages. The city of a thousand laws is a place where the jungle eats the strong, as you can tell from the fact that you killed Abyss and inherited his property. ”

Randall shook his head disappreciatively, and straightened out the burgundy length. Curt smiled back, and he said calmly:

"I'm not going to force it anyway. As long as I do things within the rules, Jason can't deal with me explicitly. The destruction of the Manticore mercenary group would have dealt a blow to Jason's prestige, and he was the one who was in a hurry now. As long as I clamp my tail and wait for the change, I will be able to wait for the opportunity. No one is perfect, and Jason is no exception. ”

"Cunning guy, I hope you succeed. ”

Randall stretched and stood up. She smiled as she approached Curt and said as Curt regressed:

"Also, thank you for the one you did for me, my faceless brother. I think I should give you a little thank-you gift......"

"Forget it. ”

Curt fended off Randall's outstretched hand and refused to hug him. At the same time, he pointed in the direction of the window, motioning for Randall to turn back. On the other side of the room, a faceless man who had just teleported over was arranging his robes. He was quite tall and had a golden coat of arms embroidered on his chest. The coat of arms is a hand holding a scepter, which is extremely finely embroidered.

Randall looked surprised for a moment, then immediately straightened up and put his right hand into a fist to his heart. She lowered her head and said respectfully:

"It's an honor to meet you, Mr. van Rendel. ”

Then Randall kicked Curt lightly and whispered:

"Van Rendel is the head of the Faceless, and he is the only one who knows the identities of all the Faceless except Lord Eoham. ”

"I see. ”

Curt nodded, then saluted in Randall's movements. Van Rendel was silent for a few seconds, as if looking at Curt through his mask. Then he waved his hand and motioned for Randall to leave. After Randall used teleportation to disappear on the spot, Van Rendel said in a deep voice disguised by magic:

"First meeting, Curt. If I could, I hope it was a pleasant meeting. But unfortunately, you have caused trouble for the Thousand Laws City. In the matter of provoking Jason's ** division, I believe you have your own reasons. Now explain that the Faceless are a force for stability, not a militant for trouble. ”

"Sounds like you're blaming me. ”

Curt smiled relaxedly, looking unconcerned. While guessing what kind of expression Van Rendel made under the mask, he said slowly:

"With all due respect, I'm maintaining order. The foundation of order lies in the law, so it is obvious that Master Jason indulged his son in misdeeds and undermined order and law. The services provided by the traveling merchants are of paramount importance to the Thousand Laws City, and the frequent exchanges between them make it easy for bad news to spread against the Thousand Laws. What would happen if I didn't turn a blind eye and let Ramsay do whatever he wanted with those merchant groups?"

"It sounds reasonable, but if you look into the whole thing, you're actually defending your own interests. ”

Van Lundel sneered and flicked his sleeve dismissively. He paced slowly with his hands behind his back, and continued to speak gloomily:

"Once you've completed the work of sweeping the trade routes, it's only natural that the trade routes can be considered your sphere of influence. As for why you have a dispute with Ramsay, we also know it. So there's nothing to quibble, you're just punishing thieves who trespass on your own territory. What I'm going to sue you is that you've overdone it. Even though the city of a thousand laws is a city of mages, warriors are just dog-like domestic animals in our eyes. But killing one dog is completely different from killing a hundred dogs, and you don't have to go over the plunge. ”

"It's just that it depends on the response to the situation, at that time, my interests were the same as those of Qianfa City, and they couldn't distinguish each other. Since Ramsay is so daring, then I have to hurt him. Otherwise, similar things will emerge one after another. He is a pampered young master, and he doesn't know what moderation is. Unless I can make Ramsey feel the scare, he's bound to keep going. ”

Curt spoke eloquently, calmly defending himself. He watched Van Rendel's reaction and later added:

"The most important point is that the interests of Thousand Law City are equal to the interests of Lord Eoham. As a faceless being, I felt that I should have stepped up at that time. This is the duty and obligation of the Faceless One, and I should fulfill it even if I don't have a mask yet. As for the consequences, I believe I can bear it. ”

These words made Van Lundel silent for a long time, and finally he nodded slightly, clapped his hands and said:

"Very good, a wonderful self-defense. Then as you wish, you will face the angry Jason ** division alone. ”
