A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

Everyone was excited because they were all moving towards a better future. However, Zhang Bo's expression became particularly unpleasant after leaving the noble's residence.

He realized that Shen Mu's perception of him was similar to that of the high-level managers: outwardly respectful and esteemed, but lacking genuine attention.

Indeed, Zhang Bo could sense that Shen Mu's attitude towards him was a commonplace respect, merely a respect for talent.

As for deeper trust and the feeling of being an intimate friend, a brother with whom he could share everything within his inner circle, it was completely absent.

This meant that Zhang Bo was not significantly different from other high-level managers, or even middle-level managers.

His status was fundamentally different from that of Zhang Caidong and Sun Zhiru.

Zhang Caidong was the overall manager of all Blue Star humans.

Sun Zhiru was appointed as deputy manager after presenting Shen Mu with a considerably useful spirit realm artifact.

Zhang Bo, on the other hand, was merely a promising but underdeveloped prophecy-type mage, whose solo combat ability was inferior to that of a Swadian recruit, and whose overall combat power was no different from an ordinary civilian.

Therefore, Shen Mu's respect and esteem for him were simply expressions of the potential achievements he might attain in the future.

It had little to do with Zhang Bo himself.

"If I can't integrate into the inner circle, how can I possibly infiltrate that castle?" Zhang Bo gritted his teeth, looking at the noble's residence behind him, and then at the towering city walls and the Rhodok castle on the rock face to the north.

He subconsciously clenched his fist, his face twisting slightly: "Moreover, according to my investigation, there seems to be a nature-type spellcaster within that castle, likely a druid."

Zhang Bo was confident in this assertion because he had considerable contact with wood elves and could sense the aura of nature.

Therefore, he had a special sense of the natural and peaceful magical power emanating from within the tall city gates of the Rhodok castle.

After all, prophecy-type mages possess a special and acute perception of various magical elements and mental energies.

It was only natural for him to detect the natural aura and the energy fluctuations caused by druidic spells within the Rhodok castle.

However, this was somewhat unacceptable to Zhang Bo because he had originally believed that he was the only spellcaster.

He had not expected that Shen Mu possessed a druid-type spellcaster in the Rhodok castle. This was a bit difficult for him to accept, although druids and prophecy-type mages are incomparable in terms of rarity.

However, spellcasters themselves are quite valuable, so Zhang Bo's original sense of pride was shattered into pieces.

Although Zhang Bo was allocated a town house to use as his private villa, the place where that druid formed by a Blue Star human resided was in the core of the core, within the castle that was Shen Mu's absolute forbidden zone.

Indeed, Zhang Bo could confirm that the druid was a Blue Star human because only Blue Star humans could release that kind of incomplete soul, and therefore, a weak magical fluctuation of supernatural abilities.

Zhang Bo was certain.

Otherwise, Zhang Bo would not have been able to bring that magic crystal ball to become the deputy director of the inspection department in the diesel company, and eventually become the deputy minister of the inspection department, and finally directly lead the entire inspection department.

It all relied on the perceptual abilities granted to him by his profession as a prophecy-type mage.

But this made it even more unacceptable for Zhang Bo.

A considerably precious prophecy-type mage, even a profession that could predict the future if it reached a stronger stage,

was actually excluded from the most core circle by an ordinary druid.

How could Zhang Bo accept this?

"Absolutely not, I must find a way to enter the castle, otherwise, I will slowly be forgotten." Zhang Bo understood that one must constantly surround the leader to stay by their side. Otherwise, once one is far away from the leader and lacks special qualities, the leader will gradually forget them.

Especially when the leader is advancing by leaps and bounds, and developing rapidly, if he is not of much use to the leader, then he will definitely not enter the inner circle, but will only be a tool that is relatively easy to use in an ordinary circle.

These are workplace rules, but they can also be applied to the present situation in a bloody manner.

But this is also what has been frustrating Zhang Bo all along. After all, he does not know how to enter the castle area, and even within the noble residence system in the town area, he cannot connect with Shen Mu like Zhang Caidong and Sun Zhiru.

"I must think of a way, I must think of a way, but what can I do?" Zhang Bo's expression became increasingly anxious, and as he looked at the middle-level managers who had just led the human followers, his expression became even worse.

Although he now gets along quite well with these middle-level managers, and also has a harmonious relationship with those high-level managers because of Zhang Caidong, he even has the right to negotiate with these high-level managers to a certain extent by acting as a tiger's skin.

However, Zhang Bo understands that the relationship with these people is not enough to support him in approaching Shen Mu because this group of people is completely dependent on Shen Mu. The reason why he can have authority among them is also because of Zhang Caidong's trust in him and his exploitation of Shen Mu's influence.

Once Shen Mu reveals his disgust for him, then these high-level managers and middle-level managers who used to have a good relationship will probably turn against him. It is uncertain whether they will still listen to him and trust him at that time.

Therefore, it is unrealistic for Zhang Bo to rely on them to approach Shen Mu, and it is even more unrealistic to rely on them to enter the castle area.

Now, Zhang Bo raised his head and looked at the large area of buildings on the rock face of the castle area, and a scrutinizing gaze appeared in his eyes.

In his eyes, behind the tall city walls is the even larger main body of the castle.

There are also many towers standing, and in the southwest corner, there is an even taller torch tower that is constantly flashing with magical fluctuations and pure light power.

It made Zhang Bo feel a tremor in his heart.

That powerful force emanating from the castle, that pure wave of light from magic, gave him, a Blue Star human and a prophecy-type mage, a double shock.

This is why Zhang Bo felt fear in his eyes when he looked at the castle.

After all, he understood that the castle was Shen Mu's true core, and the town outside was just an appendage.

Otherwise, would Zhang Caidong and Sun Zhiru be nominally allowed to manage this town area?

You should know that these two are Blue Star humans who have just recently joined Shen Mu, and they are directly allowed to manage the town area.

Although it is said that they are only managing the Blue Star human race within the town area, the human soldiers will not listen to Zhang Caidong and Sun Zhiru, but as long as they speak, those human soldiers will give a lot of face and try not to conflict with their orders too much.

Zhang Bo saw this very clearly.

But he also understood even more that the town area was really just an appendage; as far as anything was concerned, the town was just an appendage, not even half as important as the castle, the true core.

Therefore, even if there was any plan, even if the town area was messed up, as long as there were no problems on the castle side, then Shen Mu would not be severely damaged.

For him, even if he tried everything, he would actually only be destroying some dispensable decorations.

Therefore, Zhang Bo must work hard to ensure that when his plan succeeds, he also severely damages the castle, or rather, destroys the true core of this Deherim.

If the core of the castle is not destroyed, then what good will it do even if the town area is razed to the ground?

It doesn't matter if the bottles and jars are smashed; as long as the house is there and the land is there, then everything can be rebuilt.

This is the difference between an appendage and a core.

No mistake, one head, one launch, one inside, one content, one at, one look!

But now Zhang Bo really wants to enter the castle area to take a good look, to see what the natural energy and the light-emitting torch tower inside are all about, or whether Shen Mu has any trump cards that he hasn't shown them.

Zhang Bo wants to take a serious look.

"But how should I get in? How should I get in? How can I get in?!" Zhang Bo's eyes are now bloodshot.

He is really angry.

His anger comes from his own powerlessness, not knowing what to do.

"No, no, no, now anger is blinding my eyes, I must calm down, and I need to have a good chat with the Green Leaf Group, talk to them about this problem, and see if they have any good solutions."

Zhang Bo tried to calm himself down at this time, because he knew that if he didn't calm down, there would definitely be some problems.

And he also understood very well that people are unable to think rationally when they are angry.

And he also trusts the Green Leaf Group very much. Both Zhang Song and President Yang Di are top students in the school, and they founded the Green Leaf Group, a senior president who once dominated Longcheng City.

So, if you encounter something you are not sure about, it is a good choice to ask them.

Moreover, relying on himself alone, there is no way to get better ideas and help.

Three helping hands make a hero; it's better for everyone to brainstorm together and then come up with a better way to solve the problems we are facing now.

Moreover, the Green Leaf Group is also a very powerful force.

Although it is not as good as the Diesel Company, and although it is not as good as the current Deherim, it has after all existed for nearly two years, and has accumulated a lot of background during these two years.

Moreover, Zhang Song once told him.

If the Green Leaf Group reaches a point where there is no other way, there is still a considerable amount of powerful background that can be used as support.

This is why the Diesel Company chose the car logo when attacking the Green Leaf Group, and has always maintained an aggressive attitude towards the Green Leaf Group, but has not launched another attack.

"Perhaps the Green Leaf Group really has a way, and the Green Leaf Group has so many wood elves, there must also be some good things related to the aura of nature. If you use good things related to nature to get in touch with something, just like Sun Zhiru, because he contributed a holy artifact related to light, maybe there will be a chance to approach the castle area."

Because he calmed his anger, Zhang Bo's mind gradually became clearer.

He thought of a lot.

Especially about why Sun Zhiru was able to succeed, and in one step, he was half a step away from being ranked alongside Zhang Caidong as the two top Blue Star humans.

Their status is so high that it can be said that they are the only two people in the entire town area.

The reason is that after Sun Zhiru contributed the holy artifact related to light, he received Shen Mu's favor, and then he was able to become the deputy general manager.

And why the torch tower has the power of light may also be related to the holy artifact that Sun Zhiru contributed at that time.

After all, Sun Zhiru said it himself that the holy artifact he contributed had the power of light, and then after he contributed the holy artifact, the torch tower was successfully lit, and then released the circles and circles that seemed to be endless, like the sun. Bright.

"And I also feel that there is a natural aura in the castle area, and there must also be related wood elf holy artifacts in the wood elf village. If I can contribute the wood elf holy artifact of the Green Leaf Group to Shen Mu, maybe I will have a chance to enter the castle area to thoroughly investigate the truth, and if I use some small tricks on this holy artifact, then maybe I can directly attack the castle area."

Zhang Bo thought of a lot at this time, and was so excited that he couldn't control himself.

And he also felt that this method was indeed good.

"I must meet with the Green Leaf Group as soon as possible."

Thinking of this, Zhang Bo waved goodbye to those middle-level managers, and then said a few words before returning to his town residence.

Then he wrote his secret letter and gave it to his two most trusted little sprites, and then let them walk towards the outside of Deherim.

Because Zhang Bo knew very well that near the safe house outside Deherim, there must also be Blue Star humans left by the Green Leaf Group waiting to meet him at any time.

As long as he has any discoveries, that Blue Star human will definitely return to the Green Leaf Group at the fastest speed, and then the Green Leaf Group will also send a heavyweight person to communicate with him very quickly.

After all, they have already explored a fairly smooth procedure for this kind of espionage under the pressure of the Diesel Company.

Now it is also easy to use in Deherim.
