Lord of War

349. Surprise but no joy

The light in the room is very dim, and there is no lighting equipment here. When the sun sets, the room will be plunged into darkness.

For many people, a dark environment is often a sign of fear.

But for a small number of people, the dark environment will make their lives more comfortable.

"Is this the place?"

Outside the room, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Yes, my lord."

Judging from the sound, there are at least two people.

The next moment, the door was opened.

There was no knock.

Outside the dark room is a corridor. The layout of the corridor is different from that of the room, because when the door is opened, the light from outside the corridor enters with the opened door, as if driving away the dark light.

Through this glowing brilliance, one can clearly see that the layout of the room is very simple.

The floor and walls are white, there are no tables and chairs, just a bed.

At this moment, there was a person sitting by the bed.

It seemed that it was because the door was opened, and it seemed that it was also because of the light shining, the person sitting on the edge of the bed raised his head and glanced at the two people standing outside the door. It's just because of the backlight, what he saw in this person's field of vision were only two completely dark figures, and he couldn't see who the person standing outside the door was at all.

And there was only one person who walked into the room.

Then the door was closed.

The room was once again plunged into darkness.

"Sean?" The person sitting by the bed in the room spoke first.

"It's me." Sean nodded, "I heard you're seeking asylum?"

"Yes." After a moment of silence, Ali Kite finally said, "The Nugus family is too powerful, so the Thieves Guild sold me out directly, and it took me a lot of effort to escape.  … …so I have come to seek your refuge."

"It's not a problem to protect you, anyway, it's just an extra offense to the Thieves Guild." In the darkness, although Xiao En's expression could not be seen, his voice seemed very indifferent, "As for Nugus, they It will soon become history, so there will definitely not be assassins coming to trouble you.... But for safety's sake, it's better for you to stay here temporarily during this period."

"Thank you." Eli Kate said softly, "So, what price do I have to pay?"

There is no such thing as a free lunch.

This sentence is universal no matter in which world or in which era.

As for a smart person like Eli Kate, of course he knows very well that with his status and status, it is not enough for Sean to protect him with a single word. After all, his cooperation with Sean was only a mission contract relationship back then. So he helped Sean solve the problem, and Sean paid him, and the relationship between the two parties ended automatically after the end of that mission, so when he accepted that mission, all the consequences that occurred he It must also be borne.

It's just that Eli Kate didn't expect that the Thieves Guild would choose to betray him, which made his heart feel extremely cold.

So in the desperate situation,

He can only choose to seek Sean's asylum. After all, with his talent and ability, it can be regarded as a timely help for the current Sean, which also ensures that his possibility of seeking asylum is greatly improved.

Sean didn't express any surprise at Elekite's words. After all, Elekite is a smart person. Of course, he knows what price he will have to pay if he wants to protect him, so he must have contributed to a certain extent. OK. So there was almost no need to think, Xiao En replied: "My intelligence department paid a heavy price when investigating Hela Nugus before, and it is very short of manpower at present, but it is not suitable for you to go out in your current situation." mission, so for the time being, assist Ruby and William in intelligence analysis."

"Hella Nugus?" Eli Kate repeated the name in a deep voice, but Sean could hear an unforgettable hatred from his words.

"It seems that you know this person very well."

"It was she who pushed me into this situation." Eli Kate said in a deep voice, "This woman... is not simple."

"I also know that she is not simple." Sean sighed, but soon he suddenly said as if thinking of something, "Do you know the surname Garcia?"

"Garcia?" Ali Kate was stunned for a moment, but judging from his reaction, he obviously knew this, "The Garcia family is a marquis family in the Kingdom of Dabiang, but this family has been in decline for a long time. The Garcia family has already lost all their fiefdoms in the Darbion Kingdom, if it weren't for the fact that the current patriarch's sister became the concubine of Yashan Nugus, the Garcia family would probably be a family with empty titles."

"You mean..." Sean's pupils shrank suddenly, and his voice was a little more shocked, "Hella Nugus' mother's surname is Garcia?"

"Yes." Eli Kite was a little surprised by Sean's reaction, but still answered, "What's wrong?"

Xiao En's face changed drastically. At this moment, he was finally sure that Hela Nugus, who directly supported the fighting spirit of the entire Dabiang southern nobles, would be the seventh among the top ten famous generals in the future. Hella Garcia!

In the original game history, because the first and last snake plan of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance began to be destroyed after the second expansion, so the situation of Dabion Kingdom has not changed in any way. Only after the Kingdom of Bion is destroyed can players take it. Therefore, Gerson Nugus did not die, so in the end he became the next successor of the Nugus family, and during this process, Hela Nugus may have left Darwin due to some reasons or persecution. The Kingdom of Bion did not reappear in the new identity of Hela Garcia until the end of the third expansion in the future.

But now, the appearance of Sean not only occupied the Panda Territory and Black Swan Castle in advance, but also destroyed the alliance's snake plan in order to start a war with the Darbion Kingdom, and because of these various reasons, Gesun Nugus died early, causing Hela Garcia to step onto the stage of history without recovering her maternal surname. Perhaps in the current situation, Hela Nugus can't be compared with her ten years later, but her potential and strength are there after all, so she can still threaten Sean.

History has been changed!

After thinking about this, Sean was even sure that if he dared to send troops to attack Berbice Territory, then he had really fallen into this woman's trap.

"Ruby will arrange everything for you tomorrow. You don't need to worry. I have some things to leave for the time being." Sean confessed in a deep voice, then turned and left the room immediately. Negotiate the next strategic plan, otherwise it will be too late when the war actually starts.

Seeing Sean come out of the room in a hurry, Ruby, who had been standing outside the door waiting quietly, just looked at it with some doubts, but he didn't ask any more questions, but turned his head and glanced at Eli Kate in the room.

Ruby is no stranger to this old acquaintance. He was one of the few close friends of his adoptive father back then. It is said that he even peed on his head when he was a child.

Thinking of this kind of childhood memory, Ruby couldn't help but lamented that the world was changing. He never thought that he would have the opportunity to work with a legendary figure like Eli Kate in the Thieves Guild. Of course, judging from the current situation, Eli Kate is still his subordinate, and he is a little worried that Eli Kate will be dissatisfied with the current arrangement.

But Ali Kate seems to know what Ruby is thinking. Although he can't see the face of the person outside the door because of the backlight, but with his intuition as a thief, he can easily tell that the person outside the door is Ruby, so he Soon he showed a reassuring smile: "From now on, I will eat under your command, little Lubi, since your father and I were good friends before, I have to take care of uncle more."

Hearing Ali Kate's words, Ruby's face was slightly relaxed.

But at this time, Sean was not in the mood to pay attention to the touching scenes of these two guys who could be regarded as old acquaintances.

This house was transformed from a temporary warehouse in the Void City. It looks like a warehouse on the surface, but in fact there is another universe inside, and it can be regarded as a secret place in the Void Realm. This development strategy was proposed by Sean. The main source of inspiration came from the spy movies he saw on Earth at that time. It can be regarded as a relatively advanced idea in this era.

After leaving the warehouse, Sean quickly went straight to the Lord's Mansion.

In this regard, he didn't spend too long, of course, mainly because his strength is already considered good.

When the soldiers with pitch-black wings standing outside the lord's mansion in charge of guarding saw Xiao En, they instinctively wanted to salute, but at this moment, Xiao En didn't have time to stop, so before these people saluted, he had already knocked over the lord. The gate of the mansion, went straight to the third floor. Seeing Xiao En's panic, these black-winged soldiers instinctively realized the seriousness of the problem. It was only because of the military discipline that William emphasized, so they didn't suspect anything in private, but suppressed their inner curiosity and continued patrolling.

Soon, when Sean knocked open the door of the meeting room again, both William and Neil in the room showed a bit of shock on their faces.

"What happened?" William immediately asked. He knew that Sean had just met Eli Kate, and seeing Sean's nervous appearance at this moment, he knew that the news he received from Eli Kate might not be good. information.

"I got confirmation from Eli Kate." Sean said eagerly, "Garcia is Hela's mother's surname, which can already prove that Hela has the blood of the Garcia family in her body!... Now , Immediately give up the plan to attack Berbice Territory! We are going to shift our strategic goal!" (To be continued.
