Lord of War

In the hotel room, Sean stood at the window, watching Ron and his guard leave.

Of course, Ron paid for the dinner, and Ron, who was only pale, was in a state of despair after the guard returned. Obviously, he has already confirmed it from the guard, not to mention that what Sean said before is true or false, it is just that he is involved with the Viscount of Tinders Territory, and it is not something he can blame. .

In particular, this Viscount, if nothing else, will become the master of Tindes Territory in the future.

a marquis.

Although Sean is not very optimistic about Du Luen, his strength is real. The name of the Viscount is accumulated through military exploits, unlike his uncle, Count Mario, who relies on some opportunistic means to get it. coming title. If nothing else, a hereditary viscount is much nobler than Mario's lifetime earl.

After seeing that Ron and the guard had disappeared at the end of the street, Sean finally retracted his gaze.

"You already knew about the situation of the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce, didn't you?" Cecilia remained silent, but that didn't mean she didn't see how things were changing.

A smart person may not necessarily become a magician, but a person who can be a magician is definitely a smart person.

"Almost." Sean shrugged and said an ambiguous answer, "The Black Cat Chamber of Commerce has too much appetite, they shouldn't have introduced obelisk, which touched the interests of many people." Speaking of which At one point, Sean himself was stunned for a moment, and then smiled helplessly: "But it's easier said than done. Longyu Family has long intended to open the magic material market on the northern side, but it has been kept by the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce. It’s just blocking the door with a tough attitude, if you don’t find this channel, sooner or later, the Dragon Whisper Home will open up the market in this way.”

"Actually, the worst thing the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce should do is to find other people to contact the purchase channel of obelisk." Cecilia thought for a while, and then said, "The money is endless, they should start from Let's start from the Dragon's House, so that it won't touch too many people's nerves. In this way, they are tied to the same boat as the Dragon's House, and it is impossible for the Dragon's House to sit and watch their goods. It's gone."

"You see it clearly." Sean smiled, showing a look of approval, "It's much better than that Ron."

"Listening to you, I think you even know who the thief was." Cecilia looked curious and stared at Sean, "Sometimes I'm really curious about who you are. What kind of person... If it's incredible that you know so much knowledge, then now you know the news and the insider so clearly, this really puzzles me."

Sean patted Cecilia's head with a smile, and said softly, "Because I'm an omniscient stick."

"According to our magician's theory, omniscience is omnipotent." Cecilia pouted, patted Sean's dog paw away, and looked like she didn't pat her face indiscriminately, "and omniscience and omnipotence are both gods, what do you mean? Do you mean you are a god?"

"I am omnipotent does not mean omnipotence." Sean looked disdainful, as if he did not take God in his eyes at all, "Even if I am omniscient and omnipotent, I will not be a god. ... Being a god is too tiring, it is better to be a god, think If you want, take it, and if you don’t want it, even if someone asks me to take it, I won’t take it.”

Cecilia looked thoughtful.

Seeing Cecilia's maturity at such a young age, Sean suddenly reached out and ruffled her hair, and pinched her cheeks hard, causing Cecilia to look angry.

"Don't keep putting on this kind of face, it's not suitable for you." Sean smiled. "As a little girl, you have to show the vigor and sunshine that a little girl has, and don't always pretend to be an adult."

"Huh." He hummed softly,

Cecilia didn't look like a little adult anymore, "Now that I think about it, the words you said in front of him in the morning were obviously to arouse his purpose, what a fool you are, you're just trying to fool me. Come on, sly Mr. Sean, what exactly do you want from him?"

"I was discovered by you." Sean laughed even more.

"certainly!"

"Then it seems that Ron should have already understood." Sean's eyes turned out of the window again.

"What is it that makes you care so much?" Cecilia's curiosity was really aroused now.

"In Ron's hand, there is a ruby ​​with powerful magic power." Sean's voice was calm, but inexplicably a little more seductive, "He asked everyone from the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce to check this ruby. But no one knew the origin of this gemstone, so Ron only regarded this ruby ​​as a collectible."

"A ruby ​​with powerful magic power?" Cecilia frowned slightly, then raised her head in surprise, "Could it be..."

"You really belong to the Maggie Empire."

Sean turned his head and chuckled, his eyes a little more clear.

...

Just when Sean seemed to see through Cecilia's identity, Ron and his guard were walking towards the residence.

Under the charming moonlight, the shadows of Ron and the guard were stretched long, and the night wind blew away a bit of heat in exchange for a bit of coolness.

But Ron, under the night wind, shivered and felt cold all over.

"Mr. Fox, do you think what Mr. Sean said can be believed?"

Ron's face was still bloodless at the moment, the spirit of youth and his own arrogance and confidence had all disappeared, just like a child who couldn't make up his mind, trying to find some comfort. He has already told the guard next to him what Sean said before, not that he can't think of corresponding preventive measures, but the most important thing now is to find the lost batch of obelisks first. Shi, but he had no clue about this matter.

In fact, on the day the obelisk was robbed, he immediately sent someone to search, but the last clue he found was led to Arthur City, and then the clue was completely cut off. He has been in Arthur City for three days, but he has found nothing. It was not until he met Sean today that he thought things had changed, so he could not wait to rush over at night.

And Sean, of course, doesn't know the details here. Reality is not a game after all. There is no data to limit the situation here - what should happen will still happen, but once it happens, things will immediately follow. Going down, it won't be like in the game because no one receives the quest, so the quest will always be blocked without the slightest change.

"Master Ron, I don't understand these things." The middle-aged man called Fox shook his head, "My duty is only to protect you. ... But I think that man's words should be believed, and I also It has been inquired, and Viscount Duroun has indeed returned to Tindersburg, and he has returned in an unknown way, and no one knows how he came back."

Hearing Fox's words, Ron's brows were even more tightly wrinkled, but there was no trace of joy on his face: "Compared to the cooperation between Polar Silver and Medusa, I would rather Polar Silver be with Dragon Whisper House. Cooperation."

If Polar Silver is only taking action to encroach on market share, then the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce can still retain at least half of the market share. Even if Polar Silver and Dragon Whisper House cooperate, at least the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce is confident that it will occupy at least 30% of the market share. market share. But once Polar Silver cooperates with Medusa, the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce may not even be able to occupy 10% of the market share, because Medusa is also a chamber of commerce that mainly deals in magic materials and magic items, and it is the northern continent. The scale here is second only to the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce.

"Master Ron, I don't understand these doorways and situations." Fox said solemnly, "But if that man really told you that, then he must know a lot of things that you don't know, rather than us here For random guessing and distress, it is better to visit him tomorrow and find out more clearly, isn't it better?"

"Huh." Ron smiled bitterly. "Of course I knew it would be better, and I even know why he said that, because obviously I have what he needs. But what I'm really bothering about right now is me. I don't know what he wants."

"This..." Fox also frowned, "Could it be that weird ruby?"

Ron's eyes suddenly lit up, but then quickly dimmed again: "If that's the case, then the value of that ruby ​​would prove to be much more valuable than we thought. . . . What is the origin of the gemstone, even the chief deacon in the chamber of commerce does not know."

Having said that, Ron and Fox stopped talking, and the atmosphere suddenly became silent.

A moment later, when Ron and Fox walked back to their current temporary residence in Arthur City, Ron breathed a heavy sigh of relief as if he had suddenly made up his mind, and said, "Tomorrow you will contact Anrola. People, let them deliver that ruby ​​to me as quickly as possible. . . . I hope it's too late."

...

On the other hand, the fight between Cecilia and Sean seems to have ended, and the two of them are lying on the bed at the moment.

"Sean, do you really know who robbed the batch of obelisks from the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce?"

"Of course." Sean curled his lips, "I said, I'm an omniscient stick, how could I not know."

"The strength of the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce should be good. Who is it?"

"The cooperation between Polar Silver and Medusa." Sean said lightly, "Of course, the Dragon Whisper House also participated, because the information about the obelisk was revealed to Medusa by the Dragon Whisper House, but In fact, there is a very key person in it, if it is not for him to coordinate, Medusa and Polar Silver will not be able to reach a joint agreement, and Medusa's strength is naturally unable to beat the black cat."
