A strange world

Chapter 1307 Section 229. Urgent

Why did the Imperials come here! ?

Closing the portal, Annan's heart was beating wildly.

His relationship with the Empire was good, but not to this extent. It would be troublesome if they knew that there was a fake Imperial princess swindling people in the Broken Mountains.

No, I have to remind Joan to hide her identity for a while.

Since he already knew that he was the man behind the Free People, Annan simply stopped hiding and returned to the Black Reef Tavern. After opening the portal, he learned that Captain Ryan was leading people to meet the enemy, so he asked Luo Fei to tell Joan: Stay there and don't come back for the time being.

"Do you want to deal with them?" Luo Fei stroked the doll in her arms.

"I want to deal with you."

"Really?"

"Uh..."

Annan continued to inquire about the current situation: "So now we have eight masters?"

"Actually, ten."

Black Widow and Ilimoyas were also in the open-air coal mountain.

In this formation, even if the enemy is an epic, he will have to run away with his tail between his legs.

This is indeed the case.

Captain Ryan led everyone to meet President Fellen and Elvis Raymond who arrived fifty miles away from the open-pit coal mountain.

The retainer of the Raymond family and the leader of the epic warriors looked solemn.

"Who are you and what do you want! Money!?" President Fellen shouted on the side.

"We want the light of order to illuminate the Broken Mountains from now on!"

President Fellen turned his head: "What nonsense are they talking about?"

Elvis Raymond shouted: "Are you Paladins of the Lake of Ten Thousand Lakes going to get involved in the Broken Mountains?"

"We just want to free people from their shackles."

Realizing that it didn't make sense at all, President Fellen urged Elvis Raymond: "Let's do it directly!"

"I brought an epic, but there are eight masters on the other side."

Unless two more epics are sent, they will maintain the current situation where they can't do anything to the free people, and the free people can't do anything to them.

President Philen was unwilling to give up. He continued to shout the names of Hart and the other two: "Have you also rebelled!"

"I can't beat them."

"My heart is toward the light."

President Philen looked at the silent Hart and begged: "Hart, are you going to abandon me too?"

"I was captured by them. Don't worry, Philen, if they want to hurt you, I will stop them."

"What do you want!"

"We want the Broken Mountains to be free of oppression from now on."

"Damn lunatic!"

President Philen's eyes were red, his hair was messy, and he cursed without image.

Open-air Coal Mountain was everything to him. Without Coal Mountain, his trading company would fall apart in an instant.

He grabbed Elvis Raymond tightly: "Nephew Elvis, you must help your uncle!"

"President Philen, don't worry." Elvis Raymond broke free without a sound, "We must first investigate who they are and who they work for."

There was nothing to investigate. There were only a few paladins in the Broken Mountains. They quickly linked them to Captain Ryan of the Osculus Mercenary Group.

And this leader of the Rain had just appeared in the parliament hall earlier today, and was still being employed by Annan.

So far, it can be explained as a coincidence, but when the blue dragon Ilimoyas, disguised as a girl in a blue dress, appeared on the opposite side, everything became clear.

Elvis Raymond did not act rashly. When it comes to things that are not related to Killian, his IQ always takes the high ground.

Let the family members stay here to maintain the blockade, and Elvis Raymond rushed back to the Golden Palace to tell his father about this discovery.

"What are you going to do?"

Elvis Raymond realized something from his father's calmness: "You knew it a long time ago?"

Lord Raymond laughed lowly: "I played a game of fighting chess with him, and it was his turn to play chess."

Elvis Raymond understood.

The two sides were fighting a battle allowed by the rules, but the industry of the Philen Trading Company was the battlefield.

Maybe it is for this reason that Lord Raymond is willing to cooperate with Annan in playing this game?

If he wins, Open-pit Coal Mountain will be named after the Raymond family from now on. If he loses... he can't lose.

"Father, I suggest blocking Open-pit Coal Mountain first, delaying time, and letting the third party out."

"What else?"

"And..."

"My son, why do you think Annan Reeves will cooperate with you."

Elvis Raymond was stunned: "Doesn't he covet Open-pit Coal Mountain?"

He investigated and found that the coal mines in the Broken Mountains are mainly controlled by the family, the Fenren Trading Company and the Skarlu United Organization. Annan Reeves dare not touch the family, and the mining areas of the Skarlu United Organization are too scattered, so only Open-pit Coal Mountain is the most suitable.

"Our opponent is not a scarecrow. He will not let you strangle him, Elvis..."

"I..." Elvis Raymond's face flashed with a trace of entanglement, which turned into determination: "I understand, I will let Killian take charge of the blockade."

Lord Raymond laughed heartily: "Very good, Elvis, you did a good job."

"You must remember that a true leader can regard anything as a flag, including your opponents and enemies."

Lord Raymond is not a good father, not a good lord, but he must be a qualified ruler.

After he took the throne of the great lord, he first made drastic changes, replacing gold mines with coal mines, and then spent several years accumulating strength, winning over the rich, and taking advantage of the turbulent years to turn things around, get rid of the control of the Church of Wealth, and make the rule of the Raymond family solid from then on.

As the top of the pyramid, the Raymond family sucked blood from everyone and collected taxes. And the nobles and slave traders in the middle would spontaneously maintain the authority of the rulers after making profits.

As for the exploited, trafficked, and enslaved bottom... who would listen to them?

In the extraordinary world, there are naturally only extraordinary voices. There may be professionals who climbed up from the bottom, but they overcame difficulties all the way, defeated the evil lords, and lived a happy life from then on - that is the story of the bard. The reality is often that the professionals who climbed up will quickly corrupt and become involved with the existence that exploited them as soon as they touch some high scenery.

So as long as the Raymond family maintains the normal operation of this system, they can maintain their rule.

If Annan hadn't appeared, the Broken Mountains might have remained like this for decades or even hundreds of years. Until some point in the future, the coal mines would run dry again.

Killian received the order, but he didn't find Annan, so he led his team to seal off the open-air coal mountain.

Annan, who was staying in the Black Reef Tavern, was not in a hurry, because the free people needed time to develop.

Lord Raymond was not in a hurry either. The news was blocked, and the number of people who knew was limited, which would not affect his majesty as a lord.

The only one who was really anxious was President Ferren.
