ps. Here is today’s update. By the way, let’s vote for Qidian’s 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 tickets. Voting will also give Qidian coins. I beg everyone to support and appreciate!
In the castle of Bronze Drum City, Greenton and his daughter were counting the gold coins collected by the housekeeper from the branch.
The two half-elves looked at the gold coins in a dozen large boxes with calm expressions. Ordinary people would be ecstatic to see so much money, but they wouldn't.
Greenton lived a long time, more than three hundred years. The longer you live and the more things you see, the less interested you are in money. For Greenton, wealth is just a number, a statistic that allows him to achieve his goals.
And Alice, because she has seen the pile of gold bricks in the beta space, so now she has enough immunity to gold coins, and will not make a fuss just because of a small amount of money.
The two counted the gold coins in the box together. They had been counting for the whole day, and Alice was a little tired. She wiped the sweat from her forehead, and then asked, "Father, why did you suddenly collect so much money from the branch family!"
Greenton chuckled: "Of course it is used to break through to the legendary level."
"Goddess Woking?" Alice, Beta, and Kyle have been together for so long, so they naturally know what abilities Goddess Woking has: "But I remember what Beta said. Although Goddess Woking can improve strength, only master-level It is more cost-effective to sacrifice with money, from the master level to the legendary level, the gold coins required are astronomical numbers."
"That's true, but I have my own situation." Greenton replied: "I'm just a step away from the legendary level. It can be said that as long as I have gold coins, I can be directly promoted. And Goddess Woking is a very contractual spirit." My god, my strength is far from the legendary level, after she helps me improve, I don't need too many gold coins, so I think the gold coins here should be enough."
"Why do you remember to improve your strength, Father." Alice was a little puzzled: "I always feel as if there is something, or someone is chasing you."
Greenton didn't have much expression on his face, but there was a sudden feeling in his heart. He found that his daughter's intuition was getting stronger and stronger. This means that the daughter's strength is getting stronger and stronger, or she will be able to reach the master soon.
A master elf summoner who can summon a young green dragon as a partner can greatly enhance her strength.
He was considering whether to spend some money to improve his daughter's strength, but when he thought that Alice now has the "Knights of the Round Table System" and this powerful cheating method, it won't take long for her to be promoted to the master level. Or very wasteful.
When Greenton was about to take the opportunity to ask about what happened to Beta recently, the butler came over and reported: "Master, His Excellency Claude Hammy is waiting for you in the living room. He hopes to see you."
Greenton was a little unhappy, but he went to the living room and met Claude.
Claude is an old man, in his sixties. Of course, his age was nothing before Greenton, a half-elf. If you have to talk about old people, Greenton is the real old man.
Claude had a head of pure white hair, which is a sign of a healthy old man. He gave Greenton a slight salute, and then said, "I'm sorry to trouble you, my lord."
"I've had some quarrels, so we'll keep the conversation short." Greenton was a half-elf, and he didn't like people who regularly killed plants and animals for no reason. He could feel that Claude had a strong sense of wildness. This is a special phenomenon that occurs when animals are often killed. It is said that only elves can feel it.
Claude knew Greenton's character well, and he also knew that the half-elf in front of him didn't like to socialize very much, but his strength was too strong, and many people had to rely on his aura to survive in the Bronze Drum City.
Because of Greenton's direct way of speaking, he has a strange reputation among the nobles. Many people admire him, but they are not willing to deal with him.
Claude continued to salute again: "Then I will be straightforward. I heard that a few days ago, the city lord, you received a young man with blond hair."
Greenton looked at the other party strangely: "Indeed, that man is a rare and good nobleman. I have benefited a lot from meeting him."
"Good nobleman?" Claude said with a smug expression: "Then you can see through people, the city lord! That man with bright golden hair ran into the slums and said he wanted to build a temple."
"Isn't it a good thing to build a temple?" Greenton was a little surprised.
Claude hummed, and then said: "The problem is that he actually recruited a lot of young and strong laborers from the slums, and didn't pay them, and made them work desperately. I heard that some people have been exhausted and starved to death."
Greenton was taken aback: "Is there such a thing?"
Seeing Greenton's reaction, Claude continued: "I heard that the temple believes in a goddess named Wojin. I have never heard of this god. Could it be an evil god?"
Greenton waved his hand: "Cthulhu is impossible. I think Your Excellency Beta is a very nice person, not like someone who believes in Cthulhu."
Claude was a little anxious: "You can't just look at people on the surface."
"Yeah, you can't just look at people on the surface, and I understand that too." Greenton stared at Claude with a subtle look
Claude immediately felt that he seemed to be seen through. He coughed quickly and said: "City Master, I don't think it's good to requisition the young and strong laborers in the slums like this. You should take care of it. What if it's really something Evil God Temple, that’s not so good.”
"Claude, I'm not an idiot to get to this position." Greenton became a little impatient: "If you have anything to say, just say it, I'll wait."
Claude took out a small bag from his clothes and put it on the desk. Greenton opened the small bag and found that it was colorful, and every stone and crystal had a beautiful luster.
"I hope that you, the city lord, can send troops to get rid of the affairs of the Temple of Woking Goddess." Claude said slowly: "Your Excellency should also know that you can clear our temple once, but not the second time." It will be that simple. If you can send troops to destroy the temple of Goddess Wojin, then our temple will be your solid backing in the future."
Greenton thought for a while, and said, "Beta was introduced by a friend I know. I can't do such a sorry thing to him."
Claude asked: "Then what can you do, City Lord!"
Greenton thought for a while and said, "The two don't help each other."
"Okay, no problem." Claude bent slightly and said, "Thank you Lord for your help, I have to go back now."
Greenton waved his hand in good-bye.
Claude was very happy when he left the city guard of the city lord. Sitting in the carriage home, he laughed out loud several times. Because in his opinion, if there is no city lord to protect him, if he wants to deal with that person named Beta, there are at least a hundred ways to make him cry and beg for mercy.
Claude is a member of a temple, a peripheral member. Some time ago, Greenton sent troops to drive away the people from the Temple of Life and the Temple of Light on the grounds that they did not pay taxes, did not engage in production, and were moths. Now the faith in Tonggu City is seriously lacking. He wanted to find an opportunity to build a temple here, but he didn't expect that someone would take the lead.
Claude has carefully investigated the other party's experience, and his birth is unknown. What Beta did in Reed Village, in Claude's view, seemed to be doing useless work. Only a god-level prodigal would come up with this way of spending money.
To actually help the farmers in Reed Village build roads and build sewers. These two wages, which one can only be built at a high price.
But he didn't know that now Beta was so poor that he only had money left.
The carriage was very brisk, and it didn't take long for him to return to the front of his house, but he didn't jump out of the carriage, when he heard the coachman sitting on the shaft saying in a trembling voice: "My lord, something has happened! "
"What can happen." Claude was a little puzzled. He lifted the curtain of the car and looked at his home, but was petrified.
Generally, for aristocrats with a little power, their manors are built in places with fewer people. Because of the remoteness, they must have soldiers, or guards to protect them, otherwise a random thief could quietly cut their necks at night.
Now Claude saw that his private soldier fell to the ground. Although there were only a dozen people lying in front of the door, and he didn't know whether they were alive or dead, Kede felt that the manor was gloomy and terrifying now. He felt that those people should all be dead, and he didn't know who he offended. Such a big fight.
"Hurry up, hurry up, I have to find my brother-in-law." Claude immediately said to the driver.
As a result, no matter how much the coachman slapped the horses, the horses could not move forward, and they even took a few steps back.
"Mr. Claude, why don't you come in and talk?"
There was a loud voice in the manor, and Claude took a deep breath. He knew that he could not escape now. The other party could even control the horse. It would be easy to deal with and hurt him.
He bypassed the private soldiers who fell on the ground, and then pushed open the door of his house. At a glance, he saw a young man sitting on his main seat, and there was a young girl beside him. This young girl was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off.
But Claude still looked away, and he looked at the man: "Who are you?"
"You don't even know me, how did you buy someone to trouble me?"
"Beta?" Claude finally knew who was in front of him: "You injured all these people?"
"Yes." Beta nodded without hesitation: "I wanted to come and have a chat with you, but your private guards behaved very well, and they refused to let me in, so I can only resort to force."
"Then why did you come to me?"
Beta smiled and said, "I beat Hisoka, and he said something, which I found quite interesting."
He paused, and then continued: "He said, you hired him to deal with us, can you explain what's going on?"
[515 is coming soon, I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list, and on May 15th, the red envelope rain can give back to readers and promote works. One piece is also love, and it must be better!]
