Lord of the Oasis

Kant quickly took people out of the office. The sky was already very dark, and there was a cold current in the air. This was the chill that hit the wilderness in the west.

The office hall is still brightly lit.

The combination of luxurious furniture and clothing is not much better than the small living room of the top nobles.

But no one cares.

Borg slowly propped himself up on the ground.

The housekeepers on both sides also slowly got up with pale faces.

Even the Great Cheshire Knight looked a bit ugly, looked at each other, and then looked at the 10 guests still sitting on the chairs in the hall, and the words on his lips were suppressed.

So far, there is really nothing to say.

Kant the High Lord.

came back.

Officially returned with his strength.

All the conspiracies and tricks are like jokes. For example, if a glacier encounters an underground furnace, it is easily melted away by the gushing heat wave, and there is no obstacle at all.

Just the 10 big knights waiting in the hall with expressionless faces.

They were helpless.

And actually.

These great knights are not all.

Look at Baron Kant, the master who handed over command to them so easily.

If you think about it, you can understand that there may be more great knights hidden behind their backs, but not all of them are revealed. As a background, they will only show their due deterrence at the most critical moment.

Just like now.

"All right."

Borg took a deep breath.

Reaching out his hand to wipe away the tears on his face, he turned his head to the two housekeepers beside him and said, "Take off the port governor's dinner for me temporarily. If you have an excuse, say that I am suddenly ill." After a pause, he said solemnly. : "Take that silver handicraft from the Yinpan Kingdom on the second floor for me as a gift."

"Isn't that handicraft your favorite, Mr. Borg..." The personal butler couldn't help but dissuade him: "You always like it very much, why do you want to give it away now."

"Just a gift."

Borg closed his eyes: "Besides, the exhibition of the Borg Chamber of Commerce also needs the support of the port governor."

This is the old housekeeper in charge of managing the Borg Chamber of Commerce, but he was silent.

He saw it.

This is investment.

The Borg Chamber of Commerce does need the support of the port governor.

Otherwise, Borg would not be a new businessman, so keen to marry the daughter of the port governor, even if he spends money to buy land in Yinpan Kingdom, and spend money to become a court noble in Dongjun City, he must marry that Not a pretty girl.

It's just a political marriage, the two sides win and benefit from each other, and get what each other lacks.

Now there is one more relationship.

That is…

Protect yourself!

Borg has already betrayed Kant once.

As a born wise man, he knew that he was completely unable to be accepted into the core of Kant's power.

Therefore, he will be more active and participate more in the noble circle of the port governor. Although he will not betray Kant again in a short period of time, he will also not continue to be reduced to the same situation as he is now.

Even if he leaves the Borg Chamber of Commerce, there may be a way out to survive.

If there is really no way out.

Even if you don't die.

That kind of poor life is not much different from death.

Having already enjoyed a prosperous and rich life, Borg will never return to the kind of near bankruptcy, helpless, and ultimately humiliated, begging others to lead him and venture to the Naron desert to find opportunities.

Although he did get this opportunity in the end, he became Kant's puppet.

That's right, a puppet.

That's how it looks to Borg.

The real power is still firmly under the control of Kant, he is just the spokesperson in front of the curtain, a puppet waiting for the final order, and a professional manager who works for the boss.

After the personal butler saluted, he left.

Soon, with a few unidentified servants, they quickly left the office with wrapped gifts.

The port governor's dinner is about to begin,

They need to get there as soon as possible, especially if Borg can't be there in person, they need to explain the situation as soon as possible and show their etiquette.

How to say they are just a merchant family.

It is an honor to be able to attend the banquet.

In the office hall, the atmosphere was still dull.

However, the old butler next to him lost some of the arrogance on his face, and he didn't know where it went. Instead, he spoke in a deep voice and said without shyness, "Mr. Borg."

"Um."

Borg nodded, his voice unstoppable haggard: "What's the matter."

"Actually it doesn't matter." The old butler said, "The businessmen in the Principality of Lions are not of high status. Generally speaking, they are tools for collecting wealth for the top nobles. Autonomy, you are actually more like a real caravan leader than those caravan leaders."

"Yeah, that's true." Borg nodded, not shy about Chehir and the 10 Lion Knights next to him, sitting on the chair with a wry smile: "But being a noble can get rid of all this."

"Maybe." The old butler was silent.

"I'm going to rest." But Cheshire shook his head.

With a bit of sarcasm on his face, he strode towards the second floor of the office, his room: "You guys take it for granted, what can you do even if you become a noble, in the real aristocratic circle, you are more than a businessman like you. It's even more cruel to understand." After a pause, he glanced at Borg: "My family used to be a great noble."

Borg was silent, looking at Cheshire's mocking face, he smiled mockingly, shook his head and sighed softly: "I just want to find a way back, I don't have many ideas."

"Doing things for Lord Kant faithfully, you will only get gifts."

A lion knight opened his mouth to remind.

"Yes." Borg just responded casually.

He understands well.

Baron Kant is indeed in his prime now.

It can almost be regarded as a lion principality, independent of the powerful forces outside the three counties.

Even at this time, many people have already assigned half of the North County Territory to Baron Kant in their hearts. Even the Viscount Wayne who should have become the North County Territory's Lord, can only pinching his nose to confirm the news.

Kant's forces have completely walked out of the Naron Desert and came to the North County Territory.

This has caused concern to countless people.

And the reaction.

Looking at the North County Commander, who is currently assembled at Fort Roger, where Viscount Wayne belongs, the combined corps of nearly 20,000 people knows that those minor nobles and conspirators with ulterior motives still have a deep fear of Baron Kant.

Otherwise, the coalition army of 20,000 people will not be assembled, and Viscount Wayne will temporarily control it.

This is enough to be the number of main troops on the battlefield.

Although very few elites.

Most of them are mercenaries from outside on the River Rhysniston.

But even so, it is possible to start a battle that is enough to shake a certain county. Even if it is attacking the southern county at this time, with the advantage of numbers, it is estimated that it will be able to hit the Lion Castle in one breath.

In this force, there may be a stronger existence.

Such as wandering mage.

For example, the great knight.

After all, it is the secret hand of those top nobles who are unwilling to be lonely.

The purpose is to play an unexpected role when attacking Baron Kant's forces. It is best to let the combined corps spliced ​​together by these miscellaneous forces put Baron Kant in a crisis.

Of course, the joint corps will gradually collapse due to tragic casualties.

By the time.

It's time for the top nobles to collect peaches.

This is a conspiracy, Viscount Wayne knows all this, and even everyone else understands it.

But there is no way, in order to ensure the safety of the territory, we must swallow this bitter fruit, otherwise Viscount Wayne himself will not be able to compete with Kant. If he surrenders and loses his status as a top noble, then his family will decline.

If you still rely on the strength of the Lion Principality and barely tie it, there may be salvation.

That's what Borg had in mind.

He had expectations.

Or its own guesses.

Don't think Baron Kant can win the final victory.

No matter how much power there is, how can it surpass the lion principality.

This is a powerful country that established a country hundreds of years ago. Believing in the god of war, Edmond, has made this country's military force not low, and even the Silver Plate Kingdom can resist it, and even face-to-face confrontation without falling behind.

A mere power, Baron Kant's power, can't keep up with the Silver Plate Kingdom.

If Kant was defeated.

Borg needs a new way to save himself.

"It's really sad."

He stood up.

He also walked towards the top of the building, but just instructed the old butler casually: "You are responsible for this, let our friends rest well, and the standards provided are the same as Cheshire."

"Yes." The old housekeeper bent down, as a housekeeper, he just had to obey.

The 10 remaining lion knights didn't care either.

They all have their own minds.

But there are also tasks.

Since it's talking about staying here to protect the safety of this place, then take responsibility.

It's just that from the current situation, they also understand in their hearts that protection is the second priority, and the most important thing is deterrence, to take care of this place for Lord Kant, so as to avoid too many troubles.

If Borg wanted to sell the Chamber of Commerce and leave secretly, they would definitely not sit idly by.

Sarion Lion Knight from Pender 6.

A nobleman himself.

Also has an understanding of politics and business.

Although it looks cold, it is simply inhumane.

But in fact, if Borg really wants to show some signs of instability, they don't need Kant's orders, they can solve it directly, and it will definitely not be too bad.

They are much better than the 4th-level cavalry of the Sarandian rider.

The night is getting darker.

It's just that many people don't want to sleep.

In the governor's residence not far away, the lights were bright, and countless nobles gathered to hold a grand banquet.

But when the personal butler went in to explain the situation, and another spy came in to tell some news, the whole banquet ended quickly, and it was almost unhappy, and everyone left, more like fleeing.

The entire Governor's residence soon fell silent.

It was a doomed night.

However, there are still many people who are secretly connecting, and there are other views on the future situation.
