"The headquarters of the Golden Two-Headed Dragon Mercenary Regiment, is there still no progress on the side of Doom Fort?"

Baron Rodney, with a burning pipe in his mouth, stood on the balcony of his wide villa and looked gloomily at the beautiful seascape beneath the jeweled cape.

The new president of the Apothecary's Guild was drenched in sweat from his nervous back, but it was not Baron Rodney who was asking about him, but the thief standing in the corner of the room, his face covered by shadows.

"The Golden Two-Headed Dragon has drawn back the main combat power of the mercenary group from all over the country and concentrated it in Doom Castle..."

A low but unrecognizable voice rang out lazily: "Dozens of 'rats' have been sent to explore the way, but... It is estimated that there are 'cats' in the fort of doom, but none of them can slip back. ”

"Could it be that the defense of Fort Doom is as tight as an egg?

Baron Rodney said angrily: "I spent so much Kintalan and raised so many 'rats' to make holes, not to fatten up meat-eating people! Moonlight rats, those 'rats' under your command are afraid that they can't even drill holes if they are fat, right?"

"Your Excellency, the little rats of the 'Rat Nest' are only used to listen to information, not to fight, the golden two-headed dragon is the number one gold-level mercenary group in Colan State!"

The "Moonlight Mouse" leaning against the shadow of the corner of the wall still lazily hugged his arms and said lazily: "The other party's silver-level thieves are no less than ours' 'Rat Nest', and there are a few gold-level thieves like me, with them, once the little rats who sneaked in are discovered, do you think they have a chance to escape again?"

The thief Moonlight Rat seems to be the leader of Baron Rodney's secret intelligence organization "Rat's Hive", but from the tone of his voice, he does not mean anything respectful to Baron Rodney.

Moonlight Mouse's slightly mocking tone made Baron Rodney angry, but he forcibly suppressed his anger. A hint of jealousy flashed in his cloudy eyes, and after calming his tone, he said slowly: "Except for these bad news, there is nothing that can make people happy?"

"There is no good news, but there is still a lot of bad news, do you want to hear about it, Lord Baron?"

Seeing that Baron Rodney didn't dare to attack, the moonlight mouse curled the corners of his mouth in mockery: "The institution behind the 'Lymli Potion Workshop' has surfaced, and it is said to be a mysterious magic research institution called the 'Kovalare Mystical Research Institute'. ”

"Although the power of this magical institution, which is referred to as 'Keao Research Institute', is unknown for the time being, there are signs that point to Kemo University. There should be some connection with those high-level magicians at the University of Science and Technology, and the information sent back by my 'house rats' shows that this Institute of Science and Technology is involved in another mysterious force called the 'True Knowledge Mutual Aid Society'..."

The Moonlight Rat also became serious as he spoke, frowning and said, "Behind them, there seems to be an even greater force of power. It's just that the level of secrecy of relevant information is too high, and there are very few people who know about it. The 'house mice' are not yet in reach..."

"For now. The Kolan Branch of the Mercenary Guild and the Koran Branch of the Eternal Hammer have jointly established an organization called 'Kolan Lemli Apothecary Co., Ltd.' together with the 'Koao Research Institute' behind the Lymli Potion Workshop, referred to as 'Kolai Apothery', which mainly deals in various potions. ”

Shaking his head with some regret, the moonlight mouse stared at Baron Rodney with his glowing amber eyes, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry to tell you." I'm afraid that your 'Kelan City Apothecary Guild' will be completely finished after the other party's 'Collei Elixir' officially starts operating!"

Thinking of the original potion production capacity of the Lymley Potion Workshop, Baron Rodney gasped!

The other party is just an experimental potion workshop. With a few civilians who didn't even know anything about pharmacy, the potion production capacity created had already surpassed that of the Apothecary Guild, which had as many as 300 pharmacists and thousands of pharmacists under his command.

The strange pharmaceutical tool that was "seized" from Lymli's potion workshop had been dismantled and studied by him, and even imitated, which could indeed greatly increase the production capacity of the drug.

But that pharmaceutical tool can only carry out simple auxiliary processes, and cannot completely replace the existence of pharmacists, the real core technique is still the pharmaceutical formula mastered by pharmacists!

However, the pharmacists owned by the Apothecary Guild under his command were only a handful of intermediate pharmacists, and it was impossible for a real senior pharmacist or even a pharmacist master to be restrained by this kind of informal guild.

Most of the pharmaceutical formulas mastered by these junior and intermediate pharmacists are basic universal pharmaceutical formulas, and they are not at all like the violet potions mastered by the other party, they have the private right to pharmaceutical formulas, even if they also order the mass production of medicines, they are not competitive at all in this regard!

And now that the other party has officially begun to get involved in the pharmaceutical industry and carry out the preparation of pharmaceuticals on a large scale, how huge should the pharmaceutical production capacity be? As the moonlight mouse said, once the other party officially operates, the pharmacist guild under his command will have no way to live!

Although the Apothecary's Guild is hugely profitable, it is not his main tool for accumulating money, and even if it goes bankrupt, it will not affect his source of funds, but the problem is that once he loses control of the potion quota, he loses his restraint on the Adventurers' Guild, the Mercenary Guild, and even the City Guard under the Council of Coran City......

The loss of control over these armed forces will trigger a series of chain reactions, causing the Rodneys to lose their deterrence against other powerful families and small and medium-sized forces, which is already a major event that will shake the leadership of the Rodneys in the Kolan Bang region!

"Damn! can't let them do that!"

Baron Rodney roared with a hideous face: "Moonlight Mouse, gather all your fighters, attack Fort Doom for me, destroy it, destroy it, destroy it!!"

"Are you sure you want to do this? As far as I know, the Colai Pharmacy, which was jointly established by the Coo Research Institute, the Coran Mercenary Branch, and the Colan Eternal Branch, will hold a so-called general meeting of shareholders in the near future, and these shareholders are powerful institutions all over the major city-states in Gilago County?

Moonlight Mouse smiled: "Otherwise, once the other party's so-called 'board of directors' is established, and then trying to destroy this institution, it will be tantamount to opposing the powerful institutions in the whole of Gilago County... It can be predicted that the power of the other party will not even be smaller than that of the Jin Quan Society, just with a baron like you and the Rodney family behind you, you are not the opponent of the other party!"

The moonlight mouse's meaningful words induced Baron Rodney's thinking, and his eyes became resentful, and after a while, he said, "So... I'll need time to contact the nobles of the Golden Power Society, I'm sure they'll be interested in this matter!"

Shrugging his shoulders, Moonlight Mouse said indifferently, "As you wish!", and as he said that, he straightened up and prepared to leave.

At this moment, Baron Rodney said faintly: "In addition, as quickly as possible, contact the 'Razor Crown War Goblin Legion' in Dagon County for me, and tell their Harlock generals that I agreed to his request, as long as he destroys this damn blockade for me, I will persuade the nobles of the Golden Power Society to support his founding for him!"

Moonlight Mouse smiled silently, and his figure gradually dissolved into the shadows, and Baron Rodney looked at the rough sea and was silent for a while, and then said faintly: "Gilargo has been peaceful for too long, it's time to use a city-state war to redivide the composition of the force, although the 'plan' is a little advanced, but I believe the effect will not be too bad, right?"

The new president of the Apothecary Guild, who was already drenched in cold sweat, looked at His Excellency the Baron in horror, and he felt as if he had heard something that he shouldn't have heard.

Knocking the cherry wood pipe in his hand on the fence of the balcony of the villa, Baron Rodney carefully wrapped his beloved pipe with a handkerchief and put it in his pocket, turned around, turned the huge gemstone ring on his thick finger, and smiled at the new president with a kind and tyrannical expression: "Are you right?"

"Pavilion... Excellency... I... I didn't hear anything..."

The frightened new president stammered, his tone full of pleading, but his body involuntarily retreated, and a continuous stream of miserable screams resounded in this beautiful villa, and it did not come to an abrupt end until a long time later.

On the hillside behind the villa, next to the tombstone engraved with the name of "Salina", next to the dense grave of wordless tablets, it is estimated that a new small earthen bag will soon be piled up......

The students of Kemo University look forward to the ten-day holiday on the day of Dragon's Rest, even far more than the winter and summer holidays, and every time on this day, the students who have been "detained" for nine days will always gather in the campus early, excitedly waiting for the gate of the college to open.

Looking at the crowded Jialan near the gate of the college, he shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and walked towards the small passage for the faculty and staff with a group of chirping girls.

As the tour bar got on the track, Jialan decided to take the girls who were in charge of managing the "Kemo Adventure Book Bar Headquarters" to the "Kemo Adventure Adventure Branch" and the "Kemo Adventure Mercenary Branch" to investigate and brainstorm to see if they could find some ideas for tripartite cooperation.

Well, Jialan admitted that the main purpose was to take this group of girls on a group trip and release the work pressure they usually accumulate, but Jialan, who was surrounded by the girls, was surprised to find that Ailan, who has always been optimistic and cheerful, seemed to be a little depressed, while the Brown sisters accompanied her and whispered comfort.
