Mozo chuckled and agreed:
"Yes, that is probably what he will do."
But what surprised Mozo was that Laura Lis suddenly said:
"Because it is already widely known, I will tell you, the young wolf master who is isolated from the news, this piece of information for free."
"That's it."
"Hayser's Joffrey attacked the western part of the Merchant Alliance?"
Before Laura Liz could finish, Mozo spoke out the matter first.
Laura Lisi raised her beautiful eyebrows and said:
"Do you have your own sources of information even in the Sacred Tree Forest? Or did you guess this yourself?"
"I guessed it myself. But what is the battle situation? I can find out about this by going back and looking it up. You won't ask me for gold pounds, right?"
Mozo saw Heather's secret agent in the Nuremberg Mine, so he could naturally guess that Joffrey was already attacking the Merchant Alliance.
Laura Liss smiled and said:
"This is indeed news that is not worth asking for gold pounds, but I, a saint of the Iron Bank, am telling you this in person. Would you mind showing some respect?"
As she spoke, Laura Liss stretched out her hand.
Then a emerald green leaf like an emerald was placed in the palm of her hand.
Turning around, Lola Lis and Mozo saw Eldaran with a smile in his eyes.
"Eldaran, is this a leaf from the Twin Sacred Trees? It's better not to take such a precious thing."
“Thank you for your patronage!”
Before Mozo could dissuade her, Laura Liss quickly took the leaves of the Twin Sacred Trees handed to her by Eldaran.
Then, without giving Mozo and Eldaran time to regret, he quickly said:
"To everyone's surprise, the army led by Crown Prince Heather was undisputedly defeated by the Merchant Alliance!"
Seeing the other party's behavior, Mozo could only accept the fact that Eldaran and he were being taken advantage of for free, and asked:
"Are you sure it's undisputed? Although the Heathers have suffered setbacks one after another, they shouldn't lose so badly, right?"
An indisputable loss means that there is no reason to even find a reason for the loss.
In Mozo's prediction, he even thought that Joffrey would be able to regain his former territory and completely consolidate his position through this battle.
The result was an undisputed loss
"Yes, they lost without a doubt. The Hesirs did launch an undeclared war and most of the Merchant Alliance's troops were tied up in the east. However, the Merchant Alliance's troops had also been on guard against the Hesirs since early on."
"Then things became simple. Both sides were engaged in a brutal battle on the border with no shortcuts."
"But even so, it's not an indisputable defeat, right? After being trained by King Aerys II, Heather's soldiers should be considered elite and good at fighting, right?"
Mozo remembered that Heather's army was quite good, but they had never found a wise leader.
"Yes, but the Merchant Alliance not only has the advantage of location, they also have money! You don't know that when the Heisers attacked the Merchant Alliance, the Merchant Alliance defenders' magic cannons were used as if they were free from the beginning to the end of the war."
"I heard that their artillery shells turned the night into day. In this case, if the High Sequence of the Hesir people are unwilling to fight to the death, how can Joffrey win?"
"Of course they were defeated."
This is a very reasonable explanation, so after a moment of silence, Mozo nodded and agreed with Laura Liss's statement.
Originally, the matter ended here, but what surprised both Mozo and Lolalis was that Eldaran actually took out another leaf of the Twin Sacred Trees and placed it in Lolalis's hand.
"Is this the reward I agreed to give you?"
Looking at the divine object in her hand, Laura Liz said with envy.
The leaves of the Twin Sacred Trees were not considered high-level treasures, but they were rare. Very rare!
And it is a divine object, so the premium is incredibly high.
But Eldaran smiled and stretched out his hand towards Lola Lis:
"I don't have the currency of the human world, so I hope you can give me a reasonable price. After all, I can't always spend Master Mozo's money."
Seeing that she couldn't get anything for free, Laura Liss also seemed to be losing interest, but she also said in a businesslike manner:
"In this case, do you need me to open a dedicated account for you or send it directly to you?"
But Eldaran looked at Mozo after a brief hesitation and said with a smile:
"I've changed my mind. I hope you can exchange it for equipment or props that can be used in the spirit world. Of course, I need the best, if you don't have enough money."
Amid Mozo's astonishment and Laura Lis's flattering smile, Eldaran took out a handful of leaves from the Two Sacred Trees...

At the same time, in the spirit world, the Witch of Sadness was looking at the tiny prison on her wrist and she was in tears.
The sad witch would cry for anything, let alone a prison that restricts her freedom
But soon the sad witch was no longer sad. Her expression changed from pity at the beginning to a joy that could make people's bones numb.
"I feel it, oh, my John! I feel our fateful reunion, oh! this time."
The Wrathful Witch suddenly appeared, licking her scarlet lips and saying:
"You can't run away!"
212 The Conspiracy of Heather and Duze (3k)
On the deck of the Iron Bank's airship, Laura Liss had already collected the handful of leaves from the Twin Sacred Trees with great excitement. She then left to help Mozo pack the props for entering the spirit world.
The maid naturally bowed to the two of them and followed her master.
At this moment, apart from the sailor who was keeping watch, only Mozo and Miss Elf were left on the deck.
Looking at Lola Lis who was leaving happily, Mozo looked at Miss Elf in disbelief and asked:
"Why do you have so many leaves from the Two Sacred Trees?"
One or two leaves are normal, but judging from the attitude of the elf lady, she seems to have a lot of leaves from the Two Sacred Trees in her hands.
The Elf lady lowered her head slightly and explained:
"Lord Mozo, this is what the great Ra asked me to get from the Twin Sacred Trees before I left. You know, although this is a divine object, it is not actually a very precious treasure."
"after all."
As she spoke, the Elf turned around and looked in the direction of the Twin Sacred Trees.
"After all, the total amount of gold coins in an empire is probably not as much as the leaves of the Twin Sacred Trees."
The Twin Trees are gigantic sacred trees that stretch from heaven to earth like tall towers. Their canopies are so large that they can easily cover the entire Rivendell.
To be honest, even if the leaves on such a giant tree are not as many as the stars in the sky, they are probably not far behind.
After saying this, Miss Elf turned around and smiled at Mozo:
"Besides, I came out this time for you. In this case, our Twin Sacred Trees will naturally not be stingy. Lord Mozo, you need to know that it is not me who can give out these, but you!"
This is indeed the truth, so Mozo nodded in agreement.
But to Mozo's surprise, after saying these words, Eldaran took out a belt from behind and handed it to Mozo:
"Lord Mozo, this is a belt I made myself. I think it will be very suitable for you to wear."
Mozo naturally took it with great gratitude:
"Oh, thank you so much."
But the moment he took it, Mozo raised his eyebrows and said:
"this?"
Hidden inside the belt were ten leaves as delicate as jade. Unlike the leaves sold to Laura Lis, these were also leaves of the Twin Sacred Trees, but the ten leaves here were more gentle and bland in color and had a water-like texture, so they should have come from the Sacred Tree in the Lake!
And it seems that the elf master craftsman has done some extraordinary processing, making it closer to darts than normal leaves? !
Eldaran smiled calmly and said:
"It's just a small self-defense tool. You should be able to use it skillfully with your channel ability."
Mozo's Sequence Eight ability is Card Knife, but since it's better than nothing, Mozo has never used it.
Now, it seems I have to go back and practice hard.
Mozo looked at the belt in his hand with satisfaction. As a product of the elves, it already had an overwhelming appearance, and now it had very good actual performance.
Eldaran looked at Mozo's raised mouth and asked:
"Would you like to change now?"
"Yes, sure!"
As Mozo said this, he prepared to change his belt himself. Most of the belts in this world had no actual function and were just decorations, so there was no need to worry about the embarrassment caused by losing the belt.
But what made Mozo a little embarrassed was that after he said yes, Eldaran snatched the belt away from him before he could even react, and took a step forward and leaned into his arms to change the belt for him.
In this way, the posture between the two seemed very ambiguous and intimate, which made the sailors on the side look at them with envy.
Then everyone does their own thing.
It is normal for important people to have beautiful women around them, and everyone will envy them for a while. And looking at them once or twice is an accident, but staring at them all the time is an offense.
But it's also this time.
Audrey came up excitedly with the pudding, but after just one look, she went downstairs with a gloomy face.
After Mozo's eye twitched, Eldaran completed his action and left Mozo's arms.
Seeing that Eldaran had left his arms, Mozo said helplessly:
"I'll just leave it to myself for this kind of thing."
Eldaran looked at Mozo and tilted his head, smiling in confusion:
"But shouldn't I be the one doing this, Master Mozo?"
Mozo shook his head and said:
"That's not the case. Forget it. Don't call me Sir anymore. It sounds strange. Just call me Mozo."
But Eldaran shook his head and said:
"No, there is a distinction between the superior and the inferior, Lord Mozo. But if you think this title is too bad, would you like me to call you that?"
Eldaran raised his voice and tilted his head to the other side, looking up at Mozo and smiling with narrowed eyes:
"Master?! I heard that this is the word that human nobles like to hear elves say the most?"
Looking at the elf beauty with mocking eyes in front of him, Mozo coughed, looked away and walked towards the cabin:
"As you wish."
Eldalan stood behind Mozo, with his hands behind his back, leaning forward slightly and looking at Mozo who was going down.
-
In the southern part of Heather, although the Heather Empire was directly divided into two unconnected north and south parts by the Douglas family and the Wolf family.
Even in the southern part of Heather, there is the Duke of the South, who is a real duke, and Snow, a direct descendant of the Heather royal family. However, the southern part of Heather did not directly declare a split.
Although they did not announce the split, after all, the nobles or royal territories in the south no longer paid taxes to the royal capital of Heather.
In other words, the taxes they paid were not paid to the northern imperial capital, but to the castle of Grand Duke Sigman in the south.
Looking at the taxes that come in every month, Duke Sigman is still very happy even though he is an angel. Although a considerable portion of these taxes will be given to that guy Snow.
But the part allocated to him is still very large, and it belongs to him completely, unlike Jon Snow's part which is basically used to strengthen the military and expand state affairs.
And most importantly, these things given to him and his current behavior can only be regarded as crossing the line but not crossing the red line. He is just following the instructions of Prince Jon Snow!
That is to say, even if Jon Snow lost in the end.
As long as he doesn't fight to the death, he will still be the respected Duke of the South!
And if Jon Snow succeeds, my God, he doesn't even want to say how smart his choice is!
But suddenly, a knight found Grand Duke Sigman.
