Noble Emblem

493 The dust has settled

Beta doesn't quite understand what Shirley wants to do. It doesn't make any difference if he has one more maid or one less maid. The most important thing is that he really has no interest in Julie. Even Shirley, a more beautiful beauty, he doesn't care about. She couldn't bear it and didn't make a move, let alone a little maid who was not as good as her.

But since Shirley made this request, he would not object. After all, Shirley is with him. Although the two have no actual physical relationship, the union of their souls has made them closer than a normal couple. Moreover, the trust between them has almost been broken through the daily interactions during this period. Numerical upper limit.

Julie asked Shirley earlier what she would do if the situation were reversed. Shirley would indeed stay and fend off Beta's enemies like Julie did.

But the problem is Beta. With Beta's current trust in Shirley, even if Shirley says something hurtful or unfeeling, Beta will not believe it. He will just keep a cold face and drag Shirley along with him. Escape.

Comparing the two, Joshua and Beta are fundamentally different.

Beta was used to seeing intrigues in the game, and of course he had also seen the truth, goodness, and beauty. He could tell who was really good to him and who was approaching him insincerely.

But Joshua couldn't. He was too young and too self-aggrandizing. Even Julie, who had been with him through life and death, couldn't gain his complete trust.

If different people handle the same thing, the results will naturally be different.

For Julie, although Joshua did not trust her and thought she had really betrayed her, which made her a little disappointed, she was very happy and satisfied that Joshua could escape alone and ignore herself as a burden.

As for that small loss, it is nothing at all under the premise of the lover's safety.

Beta got Julie into the mansion's magical space and then left.

After their figures disappeared into the air, the other two pursuit teams came over, skillfully found the traces left by Joshua, and continued to track him.

Then... it was dawn soon.

Last night, the entire Sicilian city was sleepless... A huge fireball suddenly appeared and blew the city lord's palace into ruins. It was not until the morning that the land there barely cooled down, but those who went to investigate the situation could still feel it. That huge pit radiates heat that can injure people.

The city lord's mansion is gone, the city lord is missing, and his life or death is unknown.

A well-informed person can guess what happened. When Beta returned to the manor, she found the head of the Fashu family standing outside the manor, with a haggard and anxious face.

When he saw Beta, he came over with an embarrassed and humble smile, and asked his followers to carry a wooden box out of the carriage, and said: "Your Excellency Beta, this is the four hundred gold coins we agreed on, please accept it." ”

I didn't send it here long ago, but I just sent it here now... Beta can also guess what kind of mental journey the Fashu family leader has gone through in the recent period. He smiled and said nothing, just looking at the head of the Fashu family.

Being stared at by Beta, the head of the Fashu family felt as if he was being targeted by a natural enemy. After a while, his whole body was soaked in cold sweat, but he did not dare to speak and could only hang his head and wait for Beta's decision.

After a while, Beta said calmly: "Well, send it in."

As soon as these words came out, the head of the Fashu family breathed a sigh of relief. His body suddenly became unbalanced due to the transition from tension to excessive relaxation, and he sat directly on the ground.

The head of the Fashu family was not the only person who came to give money. Soon other people came to give money. Of course, Beta did not accept it. Their purpose is obvious, which is to hope that Beta will support them in taking the position of city lord.

Because until now...no one has caught Joshua.

Julie worked in the manor. She did not run away or passively resist. She did whatever Shirley asked her to do, and she even had a smile on her face.

"Because Joshua was not found, are you happy?" Shirley asked after finding a moment.

Julie nodded without hesitation, not hiding anything at all: "I know you are good people, and I also know that Joshua is sorry for you first. But he is my master no matter what, as long as he is still alive, I It’s very satisfying.”

Pure wishes, pure thoughts, Julie is a simple person herself, so Shirley didn’t find this answer surprising.

What is surprising is that Amanda, she should have had to wait several months to get rid of the weapons and armor, but today she sold them all for twice the purchase price.

Because of the vacancy in the position of city lord, all the confident forces in the city are now purchasing weapons and armor. There will definitely be a bloody storm in Sicily City next.

But this has nothing to do with Beta. He did not receive anyone who came to give money. Instead, he asked the steward to tell them that he did not care about the affairs of Sicily City and did not want to care. Who can become a lord depends on his own ability. .

Late in the evening, Rearden arrived with several horses, from which many strange-shaped gold nuggets were unloaded.

"These were all dug out from the city lord's manor." Rearden wiped his sweat and continued: "We weighed them. If they were re-melted, they would be about four thousand gold coins."

Reardon placed the gold nugget in the manor, then bowed and left. Beta opened the Knights of the Round Table system and found that the loyalty of the two brothers had increased by a few points, and was about to reach ninety.

Beta actually wanted to promote his family to the position of city lord, but gave up after thinking about it. Many times, it is not uncommon for favors to rise and hatred to rise, and Joshua is a living example.

If the two of them want to compete for the position of city leader, Beta can consider giving a push when the time is right, but he will never have the same intensity as when he helped Joshua.

Of course, if Kyle wants to be the city lord, Shirley, or even Emma wants to win the position of city lord of Sicily, Beta will definitely help, because Beta can trust these three people.

At night, Beta called Amanda over, and then cleared the gold coins and found that they had earned nearly 7,000 gold coins in the past ten days.

The weapons and armor earned two thousand two hundred. The gold coins sent by Givado and the three people totaled one thousand two hundred. Adding the gold nugget just sent by Reardon, it was equivalent to at least three thousand five thousand. In total, it was about six thousand. Earnings of seven hundred gold coins.

Amanda's eyes widened as she looked at the number.

Beta thought it was normal. Since ancient times, the golden belt of murder and arson has always been the fastest way to make money.

Now that the money was earned, Beta left a sum of money to the housekeeper to use for the manor's daily expenses, and then he took Shirley and Julie and teleported back to the wetland.

Amanda stayed in Sicily City for the time being, because the caravan was also here. She planned to work as a traveling trader, buying and selling all the way back to the wetland. According to her conservative estimate, she would be able to make at least another profit in her pocket when she returned to the wetland in three months. to two hundred gold coins.
