Lord of War

With Woody's guarantee, Sean didn't worry about the other party's repudiation, so he directly told Woody about the black-horned phantom.

After all, Woody is the real boss of the city.

After listening to Sean's words, Woody's face naturally changed drastically.

No more skeptical than Christina. As the real manager of Adroan City, Woody handles official duties for the entire city every day, so he is naturally familiar with the changes in Adroan City. But that's all. So when he heard that the Black Horned Phantom was seriously injured and used the entire Adroan City as a lair, and wanted to nourish his injuries by devouring living people, Woody immediately knew that what Sean said was probably true.

"In the last half month, close to a thousand people have disappeared in Adroan City." Woody said with a serious face.

Xiao En's face changed drastically when he heard it, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Didn't you, the city lord, order an investigation for the disappearance of hundreds of people?"

"In the beginning, the only ones who disappeared were some homeless people and poor beggars in the city." Woody replied in a deep voice.

Sean is also a lord, so he naturally knows some principles and strategies of the city management plan.

Every city will have a large number of homeless people and beggars. No matter how good the welfare of Void City is, the vast majority of people have already got rid of their poverty status, but according to Neil's assessment, there are still more than 2,000 beggars. These people just came to the Void City late, so they didn't catch the train when the Void City thrived, so naturally they couldn't get rid of their status as poor people. In addition, the Void City became extremely prosperous later, and the market prices naturally fell. Correspondingly, there has been a lot of improvement, so the life of these poor people soon became difficult, and they could only rely on some welfare relief policies to survive.

originally. As long as these people leave the Void City and devote themselves to the construction of cities in the border areas, they will naturally be able to live better.

But because of the existence of the welfare relief policy, these people have become a bit lazy. Anyway, as long as they are not starved to death, no one is willing to leave.

at this point. It is a common problem in many cities and territories.

Ordering these to be expelled or killed is naturally a bit cruel, and it is impossible to keep it completely secret.

So no matter where it is, it will adopt an attitude of turning a blind eye to the disappearance of these homeless people.

Although Woody's words were not particularly clear, Sean could hear them, and he didn't care about the reasons for the disappearance of these homeless men and beggars. Perhaps it seemed to him.

On the contrary, this is a good urban development trend, because it may be possible to reclaim some areas occupied by these homeless people, or even cancel some welfare relief policies.

In general, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

But Sean can understand, but it doesn't mean that Christina can understand.

She immediately flew into a rage: "As a lord, whether you are a tramp or a beggar, they are all your subjects, not slaves. You should treat them equally! If they are missing, you should immediately order to start Investigate! Instead of letting and ignoring their disappearance!"

Woody showed a helpless wry smile, and naturally couldn't help but slander in his heart.

In fact, the development concept of the peace parliament is naturally incompatible with the entire miracle continent.

Because in the whole world, from the emperor down to the common people. Nature is constantly working hard for a better future. Whether world peace is important or not is not important to them at all, and many of them are even very eager for the whole world to fall into war, because only in this way can they extract more benefits. So no matter what class people are, to put it bluntly, they are just ordinary people who exist in pursuit of profit.

Even if they are gods, for the sake of more beliefs and a larger belief area, don't they let their own church fight to the death?

The Peace Council's idea of ​​world unity is naturally unrealistic for the entire Miracle Continent.

But unfortunately, there are many strong people who are desperately throwing themselves into it for this idea. Not only are they fighting demons and demons, but they are even fighting against the conspirators who destroy world peace. They are simply the peacekeeping forces of the Miracle Continent. Of course, some of the means of this army are indeed too extreme and extreme. At least normal people don't have their kind to get a country out of corruption. Completely slaughtered all corrupt officials and high-level methods in the entire country.

Seeing Woody's wry laugh, Sean naturally knew what this man was thinking, but he didn't intend to say anything.

In any case, he is now wearing the cloak of a peace council, so he can't refute Christina's point of view, right?

Does that mean admitting that he is not a member of the Peace Council?

However, when Sean turned his head and glanced at Alisa and Levi, his expression seemed a little strange.

Because Levi and Alisa are looking at Christina with admiration at this moment. At this time, Xiao En remembered that the situation of the floating island seemed to be the real world peace, unlike the situation of the land boundary, where there were so many conflicts of interests and crooked thoughts. Xiao En didn't want these two powerful bodyguards from the floating island to be abducted by the idea of ​​the Peace Council, and he was still counting on abducting these two people back to the Void Principality to use as nuclear weapons.

So, Sean hurriedly said, "So...how is the situation now?"

"Only two days before Miss Christina found me, I really realized that the problem might be more serious than I imagined." Woody said in a deep voice, "The whole Adroan, although I have never I have counted, but there are still two or three thousand beggars and homeless people, but in the past half a month, the number of beggars and homeless people has been reduced by half, which makes me wonder."

Adroan's situation is different from Void City.

Since the war, Void City and the Pangea Chamber of Commerce Alliance have cut off all contact, and the number of caravan trade has decreased a lot, so the unemployment rate has actually increased a lot. However, Adroan is also a prosperous trading city, and there are still a lot of caravans coming and going, so tramps and beggars can still find some jobs. In a sense, these tramps and beggars still have certain value.

But suddenly there are nearly half of the homeless and beggars, which will naturally cause a shortage of porters. It's okay not to attract attention.

"It seems that this black-horned phantom is seriously injured." Sean glanced at Christina. He didn't know what the battle was like back then, but he was able to force a demon to devour a large number of lives regardless of the means. Lai's injuries are definitely serious, "Then...have the number of missing persons increased sharply in recent days?"

Woody froze for a moment. Then he nodded and said: "Yes, it has indeed increased sharply. Since the closure of the city and the implementation of military control, there have been reports that more than 30 to 40 people have been missing in the city of Adroan every day recently, and many times...even close to Hundreds of people...In fact. It was this situation that caused some panic, so those caravans, mercenaries, and adventurers joined forces to put pressure on me and force me to lift the lockdown. They all thought..."

"Think it was you who did it?" Sean said coldly, "A bunch of idiots... I want to know, who is the caller who joined forces to put pressure on you?"

"Yes..." Woody looked embarrassed. Although he didn't say anything, he still looked at Asazi.

"How did this kind of guy become the richest man?" Sean rolled his eyes, he already knew what was going on, "Azazi, get out of here!"

Hearing Sean's roar, even though Asazi had ten thousand people who were reluctant, seeing that Sean and the others even killed Woody's army just now. Of course he didn't dare to have any hesitation. Especially watching the fight between Woody and Levi, even they didn't know what was going on, but after feeling a sudden flash of silver light, Woody announced his surrender, which naturally made them feel extremely panic.

"Tell me, who suggested to you to put pressure on Lord Woody to force him to lift the lockdown?" Sean said coldly, "If you dare to lie to me, you will know the consequences."

"It's...it's Roberts." Asazi said as soon as he touched Xiao En's cold eyes. "It was he who proposed it to me at the beginning. I didn't agree with it at first, but he couldn't bear it and he teamed up with other people. Moreover, he also promised that as long as our joint pressure plan is successful, a new one will be established with my honor Chamber of Commerce, jointly control..." At this point, Asaz glanced at Woody, and then gritted his teeth and said directly: "...jointly control the trade trends and markets of the entire city of Adroan."

This sentence really made Woody very angry.

Now the adjustment of market price fluctuations in Adroan City is decided by the Wyer'an family. Because there is no second chamber of commerce in the entire city of Adroan except the Wyer'an Chamber of Commerce controlled by Wyer'an. Woody will naturally adopt a policy of suppression at the first sign of the chamber of commerce.

However, if Adroan's six wealthy businessmen join forces to establish a chamber of commerce, let alone contend, even if Woody wants to suppress it, it is impossible to do so. Because the Wyer'an Chamber of Commerce has been able to achieve such a large scale, it is naturally because Woody has adopted a divided approach to deal with these six wealthy businessmen, so that they cannot join forces in the chamber of commerce. As for other aspects of cooperation, Woody Also turn a blind eye and close one eye, he can't eat meat but don't even give others soup, right?

In the end, I didn't expect that these guys had already secretly colluded, and they were just waiting to solve themselves.

"Is the name of the Chamber of Commerce you formed called Medusa Chamber of Commerce?" Sean asked.

"No, it's not..." Asazi shook his head, "The name of the chamber of commerce is Black Horn."

"Black Horn?" Christina's eyes turned cold, and she obviously realized something.

Sean also let out a sneer: "This demon is really courageous enough....Mr. Roberts' mansion is also one of our targets this time, right?"

"Yes, but it's just a slight suspicion. According to our plan, it should have been inspected by the third company." Christina nodded.

"Now that we have solid evidence, there is no need to make any distinctions." Sean said lightly, "I believe that Mr. Woody should be happy to assist our Peace Council to eradicate this It's just a demon, right?"

"Extremely happy!" Woody was stunned for a moment, and then he said through gritted teeth, "I will immediately mobilize the Wyrian Cavalry Corps to set up a defensive formation and completely surround the pagan mansion to prevent the other party from escaping."

"Mr. Asaz, although it has been proved that you are not a heretic, you have also been used by the heretics. I think you also want to get rid of the shame?" Sean nodded to Woody , then turned his head to look at Asazi, speaking calmly but with an unquestionable attitude.

"I...but I don't have any subordinates anymore." Asazi cried sadly.

"Isn't there a guard by your side?" Sean's eyes fell on the bodyguard of Asaz, "Mr. Woody was injured just now. If you face the devil's desperate breakout, I'm afraid It will be a little beyond what you can do...I think, you probably don’t want to see that demon break through and leave, right? If that’s the case, you should be very happy to let your guards join in this battle, right?”

Asazi was taken aback for a moment, and then he found that the eyes of everyone around him were not so friendly. He immediately understood that he no longer had the right to refuse. (To be continued.
