Chapter 15: Equally despicable

Five years after parting at the Terran border, Arthur and Leon once again had the opportunity to meet face to face alone.

Leon stared at Arthur with complicated eyes, "You seem to have concluded that I would agree to your deal?"

"A deal that is also of great interest to you, and I can't think of a reason why you should refuse. ”

"Say it. ”

"This has to be talked about separately. ”

Leon only groaned a little and agreed to Arthur's request, he knew Arthur and knew that he didn't need to lie about such a thing.

Leon waved his hand, and all the orc warriors under his command retreated, and Munch was about to say something when he passed by him, but was stopped by Leon.

Arthur also told Joan and Huey to leave, "You should also go and join the caravan first, and I will catch up with the caravan later." ”

On the mountain road, in the blink of an eye, only Arthur and Leon were left standing opposite each other.

"Now you can say it, right?"

"I have two more questions that I would like you to answer first. Without waiting for Leon to agree, Arthur went straight to ask, "Who are those orcs you ambushed today?"

Leon didn't mean to hide it, "They are Elliot's people, and although the humans and beasts have hated each other for generations, their private transactions have never been broken. Because of the unimaginable profits, Elliot's privately controlled orc trading house has been secretly trading with your Terran Sky Firm. ”

Arthur was very surprised by this answer, "What an irony, the lion king who shouts all day long to kill the Terrans, but has such a dirty deal with the Terrans behind his back!"

Leon pouted disdainfully, "The situation between Elliot and the Sky Firm has always existed in the history of the two races, and there is no conflict between reclaiming the homeland from the Terrans and doing business with your Terrans. ”

"You think you know quite well, so what are you doing this for, just to get revenge on Elliot?"

"Not exactly. I've heard that Elliot's previous deal with the Sky Firm was in the Cedar Forest, because the appearance of the Great Rift Valley blocked the trade channel and it took two years to move to the Orlando Mountains. On this side of the Orlando Mountains is mostly the territory of the Bloody Wolves, and by doing so, I will cut off Elliot's financial resources and push the matter onto the wolf master. ”

Arthur suddenly laughed and said: "First killed the son of the family, and now he has cut off other people's wealth and blamed the blood flame wolf, Leon, you are still as despicable as ever!"

Leon snorted coldly and said sarcastically: "If I am despicable, I am not comparable to you, and according to your human race, this is called a scheme. ”

Arthur didn't mean to continue arguing with Leon, and suddenly changed his words and said, "If you cut off Elliot's financial resources, don't you have the idea of replacing him?"

Leon was stunned, "What do you mean? Do you want to get me to trade with the Sky Firm?"

"It's not the Sky Firm, it's me!" Arthur corrected immediately.

"You?"

"Yunxiao Commercial Bank doesn't look down on such a small force as you, and I'm different, the trust of the two clans is more important than the source of goods, at least there is still a certain foundation of trust between the two of us. ”

Arthur's proposal instantly touched Leon. Soldiers and resources are currently the bottleneck that restricts Leon's continued development and growth, and in the case that the territory cannot continue to expand, he can still continue to recruit more elite orc warriors if he has a large amount of money and materials to support it. Money and goods can be obtained through cross-ethnic trade.

Leon suppressed the excitement in his heart, "I'm interested in this deal, but I don't know what you can offer?

Arthur had already planned for this, "I can provide salt, food, silk, pottery and other scarce things in the orc wasteland except for weapons and equipment, and you can pay for them with rare ores, magic crystals, herbs, animal skins and other specialties in the wasteland." ”

This time, Leon took the initiative to extend his hand to Arthur, "Happy cooperation!"

Because of interests, the hands of the two people were held together for the first time.

Arthur took Leon's hand and said with a smile: "If you really have the ability, I suggest that your warriors control the other side of the Orlando Mountains, except through my channel, and don't want any other Terran goods to flow to the Orc Wasteland!"

"You're the real despicable, but I like this offer!" Leon's hand tightened.

......

Arthur deliberately covered himself in blood when he saw Chromed again.

The atmosphere in the caravan was very depressing, and the Yunxiao Merchant not only lost all the goods this time, but also killed and injured nearly half of the guards and men.

Even in this case, Clored was still polite, and expressed his gratitude to Arthur and the mercenary group for escorting them out after fighting to the death, and comforted the people of the mercenary group, "The responsibility this time is not ours, it was the negligence of the orcs that caused the ambush, I will report to the headquarters truthfully when I go back, and our firm will give a lot of the rest of the commission of the mercenary group." ”

Arthur climbed up the pole and pretended to be an orangutan in a pretentious gesture.

Although this escort mission did not find any useful clues to the Sky Firm, it accidentally connected to Leon's line and pried the business of interracial trade. If this matter is known to Yunxiao Commercial Bank, I am afraid that it will immediately be grateful and chased and killed!

Although the trip of the Sky Merchant Company did not expose any problems, Arthur felt that they must be involved with the "Divine Punishment", otherwise how could they have such great energy to bring interracial trade to Eliot, the lion king.

Arthur had secretly decided that he must seize the line of the Sky Firm, and Clorid was the best way to break through.

......

While Arthur was planning to calculate the Celestial Firm and Colony, there were people in the royal city of Singalore who were also planning him.

In the West Hall of the Church Headquarters, a white-robed priest was bowing down and whispering to Cardinal Diliel.

Dilill's finger tapped on the back of his chair, "Arthur actually showed up, did he think this was the end of the matter?"

"Bishop Bellamy of the Western Diocese of the Kingdom has asked if he wants to arrest him, and Arthur is now the top target in the Inquisition's Demon Hunting Handbook. ”

Dilier smiled coldly, "Bellamy is also an old fox, if he is sure that he can catch Arthur, will he still ask us for instructions?

"What about that, you see?"

"There's no rush in this matter, let Bellamy thoroughly understand the situation around Arthur first. Although Arthur is just a small fish, Shino and Spence around him are both top powerhouses, and it was because of this Arthur that Fast planted his heel back then, and now he is still thinking about it in the Bright Holy Mountain?"

"There's also news that our apprentice pastor, Arya, who had been with Arthur back in the day, has reappeared after disappearing for a few years. ”

Dilier's eyes lit up, "Arrange for someone to contact this probationary priest first, I believe they will not easily betray the God of Light." ”
