Chapter 181 Night Sky. Dawn
On the edge of the coalition camp in Qiulin District, a team of people belonging to the Dick family, where a team of people are stationed here; the number is not large, only about 200 people, and this is also the reason why the Dick family is stationed here. Although it is a coalition army, under various ancient systems in Qiulin District, some bad habits are difficult to change. For example: when the coalition army is dispatched, which family has more troops, which family is closer to the central army tent.
Like this time, although it is a vanguard army, many families have sent out two or three thousand troops, and even if there are a little less, there are one or two thousand people. Such a team of about two hundred people is completely unavailable; however, Liverdel looked at the team of only two hundred people, and belonged to the Dick family, but his eyes narrowed.
Elite!
Completely elite!
As the second young master of the Dekui family and the younger brother of the current patriarch, Liverdel, who once competed with his brother, was definitely not a fool. The team in front of him, he could see the difference by just a scan. Perhaps the weapons and armor are similar to those of other families in the entire camp, but everyone here is filled with murderous aura, and such murderous aura will only appear on soldiers who have experienced many battles.
There is also a similar team in the Dekui family. Although he was trained by himself, when his brother succeeded to the throne and convinced him, the team he trained became his brother's guards, protecting the safety of his brother and the castle. Even if he acted as a vanguard officer this time and came here, he had only drawn fifty people and mixed in a team of five hundred people, just in case.
After all, he spent several years of hard work. The number of guards did not reach 1,000. It was just around 500. It was not a problem of weapons and equipment, but the loss of actual combat; every battle would have casualties, and it could not be eliminated, and every dead warrior would make Liverdel feel distressed, but there was no way to do it; if you want a real elite, you could only train troops in this way.
The Dick family...
Retracting his gaze, Liverdel couldn't help but recall the Red Leaf City family again. He first noticed that this family was more than a year ago. At that time, Red Leaf City experienced a rebellion, and some thoughtful families wanted to go out and get a share of the pie; however, they were disturbed by the sudden appearance of Fies Dick.
A wizard who is good at the undead faction and the energy-shaping system, especially when the undead faction has reached the master level, that is not a joke. If you don’t want to be destroyed by endless skeleton warriors, zombies, bone demons, etc. overnight, it is best not to mess with such an existence; especially on the battlefield, such existence makes people even more powerless, tireless, and fearful undead creatures who just died stand up again, but become enemies. This situation makes most families in Qiulin District very afraid.
Therefore, the families who wanted to get a share of the pie returned to their territory faster than they set out, and immediately sent an envoy representing friendship to Hongye City to congratulate the Dick family on their journey and becoming the real master of Hongye City again; at that time, the Dekui family also sent an envoy, but when the envoy returned to the family and told him about the experience of Hongye City, Liverdel's attention shifted from the master of the undead faction to the "reform" of Hongye City in Hongye City.
Delayed curfew, open all night on weekends, outsiders must register...
A series of policies made Liverdel see what is contained in it, and his brother also saw it. However, the two were helplessly different from small towns like Red Leaf City. The Dekui family located in the middle of Qiulin District. Although they are nominally the lord of Dekui City, there are still some unpleasant existences in it.
Liverdel knew very well that if they learned to do this by Red Leaf City, they would definitely be opposed by those old stubborn union; and it is precisely because of this that he and his brother wanted to "open up" living space and move to other places in Lorrant because they understood that if they continued to stay in Qiulin District, they would become corrupt. Once decayed, Dekui City would change its name again, just like the original Duoye City to the current Dekui City. There were countless people around him watching them make mistakes or giving them the chance to make mistakes.
"The soldiers of the Dick family are really elite!"
After entering the tent belonging to the old housekeeper, Liverdel said half complimentary and half serious.
"Just some brave kids, they are still far from it!"
The old butler smiled and staggered without any trace. The so-called "elite" problem of these soldiers trained by the eldest lady himself, of course, this old butler knew about them, but this did not mean that he would promote them everywhere; just as the eldest lady said: "The reason why Red Leaf City is scary at this moment is because of Fis, not anything else!"
It is enough that Red Leaf City has a fearful existence. There is no need to be too superior but not as good as it is. It is not unfamiliar with this old housekeeper; not to mention that he knew the true identity of Fies Dick, and he believed it even more deeply.
The Dragon of Shake!
What kind of existence is that? Although it has Fies Dick, this pseudonym, its real existence is even more irritating and dazzling; but the identity of a witch hunter is destined that the Dick family in Qiulin District can only rely on the pseudonym of Fies Dick to strengthen their reputation
However, this is enough for the Dick family. The old housekeeper will never forget everything he sees now. Relying on that reputation and the young lady's hard work, the entire Red Leaf City is even more lively and prosperous than when the master existed. Especially with the influx of some merchants, the Dick family has obtained unimaginable tax revenues in the past.
But, a pity...
The old housekeeper didn't know how long this kind of life could last. Although he could rely on that person's reputation now, it was definitely not a long-term solution. As that person's strength became stronger, the Dick family would undoubtedly be left far behind.
This is not cruel, but a fact that allies always need a gap in strength. Only exploitation will arise; if you don’t want to be exploited, you can only chase or be abandoned; the old housekeeper does not understand the progress of the existence of his strength, but he is certain that it is inhuman; it is impossible for the Dick family to keep up with such speed.
Therefore, his eldest lady was so anxious to form such an "elite" so that she could have a guarantee of her own power after losing someone's protection.
if you can……
From the standpoint of his family, the old housekeeper couldn't help but think that the young lady and the second lady had no movement, and naturally they could not hide the matter between each other and the two ladies. He was angry at first, but after calming down, he felt a little joy. After all, there were no eternal allies in the world, but he had endless bloodlines.
This old housekeeper can imagine that if one of the eldest lady or the second lady is pregnant with that child, then the Dick family will be worry-free for a hundred years. If both ladies are pregnant, then it will be even better. As far as he knows, the existence of these special bloodlines is difficult to have their own child, and each one will be hard-won; and after being given the other's surname and the surname of the Dick family, even for the sake of his own children, the other party will take the Dick family under his command.
only……
This is just hope, but the fact is cruel; for this reason, the old housekeeper even wanted the one who visited Hongye City more. After all, the number of times is the only rule to increase the probability; but unfortunately, after leaving, apart from the necessary communication, he did not step into Qiulin District again.
"Do you have anything to worry about?"
The sad face flashed on the old housekeeper's face made Liverdel ask curiously
"Nothing, I'm just not optimistic about the coalition's attack on Four Seasons Fort this time!"
Of course, the old butler could not say in front of an outsider that he was worried because he wanted the patriarch and the second lady to be pregnant with someone's descendants. Not to mention the outsider, he would not say even the person involved. Even if his eldest lady and the second lady had a good impression of that person, they should not be angry. This old butler has seen too many things.
Therefore, the old butler made an excuse directly; however, such an excuse was just right for Liverdel. He immediately followed the old butler's words and said: "Yes, the witch hunter is only temporarily restrained; once he comes back to his senses... hehe..."
After chuckling twice, Liverdel didn't say anything, but even the stupid Thor understood the meaning; not to mention that it was someone like the old housekeeper who had rich experience and experience.
"The Dekui family shouldn't be worried about such dangers, right? After all, you are in the hinterland of Qiulin District, not like our Red Leaf City, located on the edge of Qiulin District!"
The old butler followed the other party and sighed.
"Compared with the edge of Qiulin District, in its hinterland, competition is even more cruel! Therefore, our Dekui family will not refuse any allies to join!"
As he said that, Liverdel looked at the old housekeeper. He had already said it very clearly; the meaning of alliance was already made public; and in Liverdel's thoughts, the old housekeeper in front of him should have pretended to hesitate and chose to agree to such an alliance.
After all, this is a very terrible 'cross' for the Dicks family!
As Liverdel said, the Dekui family is located in the abdomen of Qiulin District and belongs to the internal scope. Compared with the Dick family who are just outside, it is an existence that needs to be admired by mountains; even if both sides are named the city lord, can a city lord in charge of a lord in charge of a radius of more than ten kilometers and a city lord in charge of a radius of hundreds of kilometers?
Therefore, when the old housekeeper thought for a while and shook his head to refuse, Liverdel couldn't help but widen his eyes. His eyes were full of disbelief, and he even asked subconsciously: "Why?"
"The Dick family has their own way of survival; thank you again for your suggestion!"
The old butler responded very politely when facing such a question. If it was just a Red Leaf City, such a marginal town, and the two families of Dick and Thor, there would be no problem with that person's reputation, but if there was such an existence as the Dekui family, it would only increase the variables and even make that person feel embarrassed.
After all, unlike families like Dick and Thor, even in the hinterland of Qiulin District, the Dekui family has its own famous Dick and Thor family, which can directly change their flags and flags to seek protection, claiming to be a demon hunter family, but can the Dekui family?
You know, since the age of freedom, no family in the hinterland has done this!
Therefore, the old butler would not take such a risk to join the Dekui family. Perhaps they would temporarily obtain unimaginable benefits, but they would later annoy the one who existed between the Dekui family. The old butler undoubtedly favored the former; after all, in the old butler's heart, that offspring would be the hope of the Dick family, not the so-called Dekui family.
Your own people are always your own people; outsiders are always outsiders!
The old housekeeper understands this very well
"Is that true? That's a pity!"
Shaking his head and looking regretful, Liverdel finally chose to say goodbye. He did not leave any excuses. And continuing to stay was just a little embarrassed. On the way to answer his tent, Liverdel was thinking in his heart why the other party refused to alliance with his family.
As long as the conditions are suitable, it will be beneficial to the Dick family without any harm!
Why did the other party refuse?
Moreover, the old housekeeper obviously did not think about it because of impulse or something, but because of careful consideration; in such careful consideration, he rejected the Dekui family...
Could it be that the Dick family has any great support?
Liverdel's body had just sat down and stood up again and began to walk in his tent. This was Liverdel's way of thinking; and I have to say that this way of thinking is very good.
This reliance is very powerful, so powerful that it can ensure that the Dick family and the entire Red Leaf City are worry-free.
But there are also some unknown restrictions...
Moreover, this time the Dick family only brought two hundred elite troops, obviously not participating in the coalition forces; on the contrary, it feels like retreating as soon as the fight begins...
If so...
Gradually, Liverdel felt that he had found the core of the problem, but he was still almost the more important thing that had not appeared, which made Liverdel move faster and faster.
...
"Uncle Dick, why did that Liverdel form an alliance with us?"
In the tent of the Dick family, Thor sat aside, with a confused look on his face. The old housekeeper's name no longer exists. He only had Dick's surname. This is not an insult, but rather a kind of honor. Looking at Thor who was puzzled, the old housekeeper couldn't help but smile and said, "Because he lacks manpower!"
"Lack of staff?"
Thor was even more puzzled
"Well, or cannon fodder!"
The old butler nodded and when answering, he slightly ridiculed the Dekui family for being so popular that the Dick family needs to be looked up to by the Dick family. If the two form an alliance, although the Dick family has obtained unimaginable benefits, some certain efforts are inevitable; even if one is not good, it will be in danger of extermination. In the past seventy years, the old butler has seen too many people who are in the limelight for a while, but in the end it is a bleak end.
Therefore, even without Ye Qi's existence, he would choose to refuse to drink to quench his thirst, which is far less suitable than the long flow of water. What's more, it is obvious that they are taking the initiative now.
"What? I'll beat him up!"
Although Thor was a little stupid, his normal vocabulary was understandable. He immediately stood up with anger on his face; he reached out and picked up his hammer.
"No need. Once this war is swept away, it will be even worse if it is broken from afar!"
The old housekeeper stopped Thor with a smile, and Thor, who remembered that his father wanted to listen to the old man in front of him, immediately sat down again. For Thor, his father's words must always be listened to; not to mention that he only felt kindness in the old man, but no malice, just like his only friend.
"Uncle Dick, do you think Fis will come?"
When he thought of his friend, Thor couldn't help asking the old butler
"Maybe!"
After a moment of silence, the old butler gave an answer that was not certain. Although such an answer was ambiguous, Thor was still happy to dance. The old butler looked at Thor's appearance and couldn't help but shake his head, and looked at the sky that was about to light up in the east through the curtain of the tent.
Once you get anxious here, that person will definitely come; but you just can't recognize him!
...
"Boss, are you sure Your Excellency Fis will come?"
In a forest outside the Four Seasons Castle, the three-person team was moving forward. One of the men carrying a spear asked the woman walking in front.
"It's definitely true, for the sake of the family...he..."
Her exquisite and beautiful appearance did not lose any loss under the night sky. Her waist-length blonde hair was raised high by Ellaro Dick, forming a ponytail; her answer was very affirmative at first, but then she became a little uncertain, which made the two subordinates who were following her roll their eyes together.
"Boss, I think you should post a missing person notice, not a needle in a haystack!"
While speaking, Grey placed his spear across his shoulder, as if carrying a stick. Such a subtle movement that seemed to be accustomed to make Ellaro Dick and Anliolor subconsciously narrow their eyes and touch their respective weapons.
Because Grey's actions only have one meaning, and they are unknown to us!
