Dane opened his mouth and asked the core issue of the matter. He was not intimidated by being an enemy of Governor Conley, who was in a good situation, nor was he dazzled by the possible huge benefits. He still maintained a considerable sense of reason.

Moore Norton paused for a moment, showing a subtle smile on his face, and said, "Dane, Dane, what do you want me to say about you? I haven't decided whether to join my plan, so I have to ask My specific battle plan?"

Dane also responded with a smile and said: "I don't know your specific battle plan, how can I make such an important decision? I want to put myself and the lives of hundreds of people under me at risk. In your hand, how dare you not ask more clearly?"

Morno still refused to face the essence of the problem: "All mercenary groups, whether it's Smil or Blood Axe, even the most powerful pure sword mercenary group , I didn’t even tell them before they made a decision. Brother Dane, we have always had a good relationship, but this is not the reason why I can reveal the plan to you in advance.”

Dane said: "I'm different from them. You said that the pure sword is the most powerful? Let that woman Alexandrina try it out with me? Or let her famous 'pure swordsman' fight with me?" Look at my sword dancer? You see, is she being ridden by me, or his pure swordsman was crushed by my sword dancer."

The half-orc warlord was still silent. Seeing him like this, a smile appeared on the corner of Dane's mouth, and he said, "Boss Morno, thank you for the wine, and thank you for inviting me to visit White Wolf Castle. I am on the island There are still a lot of things to deal with, and I am afraid it will be inconvenient to stay in your place any longer. Let me take my leave, and hope that we will meet again one day in the future."

After saying this, Dane turned his head away, and he was really about to leave.

Just as he put his hand on the doorknob of General Morno's study, he heard a voice from behind: "Wait!"

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and Dane knew that Morno must not be able to bear it.

He can be said to be playing hard to get, but he can also be said not to. If Morno really refuses to reveal his plan before the battle, Dane will turn the false move into a real one. Otherwise, would he really take a group of his brothers to fight Governor Conley and those orcs for the benefit of Moreno? Isn't that a hole in the head!

Turning his head away, Dane faced General Morno again with a smiling face. And the face of the half-orc warlord was stained with a heavy stain, which made him helpless.

Morno scolded with a smile: "There's really nothing you can do about this guy... Well, well, let me tell you, but you have to promise to join my army."

Dane didn't like this, he said: "I can't give you this guarantee. If your plan is a plan to send you to death, will I still take my brothers to go with you? However, I can ask you What I promise is, no matter whether I want to join your battle plan or not, I will never reveal half a word I heard in this study today. I, Dane, always spit out a nail when I speak, Boss Moore, you won't trust me, will you?"

"I'm sure I can trust your words. But you have to know that among our enemies, there are a group of annoying warlocks. It is said that they really have the ability to search a person's memory."

Dane snorted and said: "I know there is, but they must have the ability to catch me. Stop talking so much nonsense, Boss Morno, hurry up and talk, if you don't talk, it's even past dinner time."

Morno touched his aching head, but he couldn't figure out whether it was him or the nasty boy in front of him who was in charge of the White Wolf Castle.

Afterwards, Morno planned to tell Dane about the plan he made.

He first took out a scroll that was half the height of a person from the bookshelf behind him, and spread it out on his huge table. Then, a whole map of Schindler's East was displayed in front of Dane.

Looking at the map, Dane's eyes widened. Things like maps are not readily available. In this world, there are no satellites, no GPS system, and things like maps can only be drawn by manpower to explore the field over and over again, so that they can barely draw a more reasonable picture. Investigators, surveyors, such high-level talents are indispensable. Moreover, even if this is the case, what the final map looks like, and how different it is from the actual situation, is purely to see whether God will show face or not. If the level of the surveyor is poor, or the terrain of the surveyed place is difficult, the map drawn may be completely different.

But the one in front of him is different. From Dane's eyes, he can tell at a glance that this is definitely a very reliable high-precision map of the southeast region of Schindler. Such a map is no longer something that ordinary surveyors can draw. It must involve the power of magic, and it is even drawn by a real mage with wisdom and abilities that are difficult for ordinary people to understand.

In this way, the preciousness of such a map can be seen quite clearly. It can even be said that with this map, the same two armies fighting in the same place will face completely different situations. One side must march cautiously, constantly dispatching scouts to investigate the surrounding situation. On the other side, they can follow the instructions of the precise map and march forward in a swaggering manner. This gap will be more obvious in actual battles.

To be honest, if it wasn't because Dane couldn't beat Morneau, or because this was Morneo's lair, he would have taken the map away directly! Back then, when he was still leading the Horror team, if he had such a map, he would have taken advantage of it when he was doing mercenary missions, blocking roads and robbery, or even cheating on gangsters!

It is precisely because of the above reasons that this kind of high-precision magic map is quite expensive. Moreover, usually there is a price but no market, and if you have money, you can't buy it.

"Can you give me a copy?" Dane asked.

Morno was furious: "You are asking too much!"

Dane touched his nose, and he himself felt that his request was a bit too much. This kind of map must be made by a mage, and there must be a magic imprint of the mage. If you copy one copy, the quality of the map will drop by one copy, and if the copy is not good, the map may be directly damaged. It is no wonder that Morno regards this map as a treasure.

But even so... he still wants it!
