Lord of the Oasis

"Ancient ruins? Treasures coveted by the five major families at the same time?" Kant's expression was a bit strange, half a smile. He knows very well that the world nobles are standing behind the five major families. If these two guys really find something amazing and are admired by the five world nobles at the same time, they will be able to run here safely and make a refuge. Does he look like Kant?

"If it's not the treasures that the five nobles look up to, but the protection that the four top earls and Carl Cameron look up to, the words of these two guys can stand up to scrutiny. Take these two guys twelve years ago. Judging from the incident of trying to infiltrate Lionheart City with the four major families, they really regard their family as an existence of the same level as the Cameron family and the four top earl families in the Principality of Lions." Kant then switched. Thinking from one angle, I found that the words of these two guys are not necessarily false, trying to deceive him.

"Then tell me, where is the ancient ruins you found? What are the treasures you found, and did you bring them over?" Kant looked down at the two top viscounts of the Principality of Lions and carefully observed their faces. When Kant questioned, Viscount Potter and Viscount George were calm and very natural. Such performance often represents openness in the heart, and of course the possibility of superb acting skills is not small - Kant is more inclined to the latter.

Viscount Potter thought for a while before answering Kant's question: "Your Majesty Kant, the ancient ruins we found were at the bottom of the Resniston River, and that place happened to be my manor and that of Viscount George. The junction. It was one of my soldiers who accidentally fell into the water and sank into the entrance of the ancient ruins that were found by the Resniston River. Then I quietly sent my men to inquire. However, my actions were better than others. Noble, but did not hide Viscount George, you should know that he has always regarded me as his biggest enemy, and considered me to be his biggest rival for the sixth earl of the Principality of Lions."

Viscount Potter paused before continuing: "Therefore, this guy is very concerned about all my actions. Finally, in the third week of my exploration of the ancient ruins, Viscount George discovered my secret. He It was unreasonable and also sent a team to quietly explore the ancient ruins - our strength is similar, I can't do anything about him. I know he wants to get the good things in the ruins before me. At that time, we were still in a fiercely competitive relationship, and because of his joining, I was forced to order my family's expedition team to speed up the progress, even if it took a little risk."

Viscount Potter talked for a long time, and glanced at Baron Kant who was sitting high in the main seat. Seeing that he was listening very seriously, he immediately continued: "The ancient ruins are not so easy to explore, and the dangers in them are Many times we have never heard of or seen anything that we have never seen before. In the ancient ruins, many places are dark, and even some places cannot be illuminated by flaming torches. Sometimes, from the terrifying darkness, terrifying horrors emerge. Demonized creatures. Your majesty, you built a heroic city on the Sanwana Mountains, and you must know the horror of the ferocious demonic creatures. None of the demonized creatures in the ruins is weaker than the common ferocious species. Yes. Sometimes, a big tree that looks ordinary, its branches will suddenly bind the soldiers who are close to it, and then grow terrifying rhizomes from the branches. It only takes a while,

Even the soldiers of the peak level of knights will be sucked into a bone-covered human skin by the terrifying branches. "

After a pause again, Baron Potter took a sip of the drink served by the attendant and continued: "It is precisely because of this that the first team sent by Viscount George and I are in the ancient ruins, and the entire army has not been explored halfway. Overwhelmed. At that time, Viscount George and I really realized the difficulty of trying to explore the ancient ruins. The entrance to the ancient ruins happened to be at the junction of Viscount George and me. Repeating the mistakes of the past, I negotiated with Viscount George, and finally reached an agreement and signed an agreement. We will send soldiers together to form a second expedition team, and continue to explore carefully..."

Kant sat on the main seat and listened to Viscount Potter's spittle, and suddenly said, "Hard, Viscount George went for a walk in the garden. I have some questions to ask Viscount Potter alone."

At this time, Viscount Potter naturally stopped the words in his mouth, and at the same time raised his heart.

The two Viscounts came to "seek Kant's asylum", so they did not dare to go against Kant's will, and Hader took Viscount George out smoothly.

"Viscount Potter, please answer me, what date did you sign the agreement with Viscount George? How many pieces of parchment were written in your agreement? At the same time, what color and size was the treasure you obtained? Now? Where is it placed? Also, be careful, stop talking nonsense with spittle! Answer my question directly!"

Hearing Kant's question, Viscount Potter's scalp suddenly became numb, and cold sweat flowed down his face.

"This...this..." Viscount Potter didn't start to eloquently at all, stammered and didn't answer a single question.

"My question is difficult to answer?" Kant's voice became slightly indifferent.

"No... No, Your Majesty Kant, I'm recalling carefully! You know, people in high positions like us have to deal with many things every day!" Viscount Potter racked his brains and answered with difficulty. Kant's question.

"I remember... Your Majesty Kant, I remember it!" Viscount Potter seemed to really recall the answer to Kant's question, and he quickly said, "His Majesty Kant, I have signed a contract with Viscount George. The date of the agreement was a year ago, June 18th! It has been over a year since the agreement was written on six parchments. The treasure we obtained was a black crown, the size of which was larger than a normal crown. It's a big circle, and it's now in my manor."

"Dund, you take Viscount Potter to the outside of the City Lord's Mansion, and come back in five minutes!" Kant instructed another Swadian royal knight.

"As ordered, my lord!" The Swadia Royal Knight took the order and took Viscount Potter directly out of the Lionheart City Lord's Mansion.

"Newd! Go and bring Viscount Harder and George back!" Kant pondered the words of Viscount Potter. After listening to Viscount Potter's description, Kant once again ordered another Swadian royal knight.

When Viscount George returned to the main hall of the city lord's mansion, Kant asked him the same question.

At the beginning, Viscount George, like Viscount Potter, was a little embarrassed. After a while, Viscount George replied: "Your Majesty Kant, the date I signed an agreement with Viscount Potter was four months ago, in May On the seventeenth. The agreement was written on two pages of parchment. The treasure we obtained was a black crown, a size larger than an ordinary crown, and it is now in the manor of Viscount Potter."

Kant said with a smile: "It seems that Viscount Potter is right, Viscount George, you do regard Viscount Potter as your biggest competitor to become the sixth earl of the Principality of Lions. For the two of you, remember more firmly. Viscount Potter doesn't remember the agreement you signed four months ago, he said the date you signed the agreement was a year ago, June 18. Viscount George, you must remember you and Potter last June 18 What agreement did the Viscount sign?"

When Viscount George heard Kant's words, his face turned pale.

Last June 18, Viscount George did sign an agreement with Viscount Potter. And it is more important, an agreement that was not implemented in the end.

...

"Potter, you idiot, the last agreement we signed was on May 17 this year, how could you answer that it was June 18 last year? We also signed an agreement during this time!" Viscount George After leaving Lionheart City with Viscount Potter, he kept complaining that Viscount Potter was doing something wrong.

"Hey, George, you stupid pig! How dare you say it! Don't you think about it, are the ancient ruins so easy to explore? From the time we signed the agreement to the time when we finally got the treasure, it naturally took longer. It will be more precious and will attract Baron Kant to leave Lionheart City!" Baron Potter became angry and accused George in turn: "Besides, the agreement we signed on June 18 last year was originally a joint effort to devour Baron Kant in the Naron Desert. The agreement with the Salt Mine in China is at the right time. When facing Baron Kant, I can't help but think about it! So, George, you are a stupid pig! You caused me to lose the ability to train 30 great knights. Precious resources! The promises of the five major families are enough to make up for the losses I suffered in the ancient ruins!"

...

After Kant expelled the two Viscounts of the South County who proved to be deceiving him, he thought to himself: "What is their purpose? From the words of the Viscount Potter, especially when he talked about the annihilation of his own expedition. Judging from the heartache that appeared inadvertently, the ancient ruins, nine times out of ten, really exist. And the so-called treasure - a black crown, the two of them said very much the same thing, obviously if it hadn't been discussed long ago, If it weren't for this black crown, it really does exist!"

"The five major families, and the two viscounts who are loyal to offer treasures but put the treasures in the manor, this should be a conspiracy situation set up by them together, I might as well think along the line set by these guys: because I covet The treasure that was coveted by the five major families at the same time agreed to protect the two viscounts, which must require them to present the treasure-the two viscounts can tell me at this time, in short, there must be their reasons, and the treasure is placed in the manor of Viscount Potter. Among them, I need to get it myself." Thinking of this, Kant felt that he had almost guessed the opponent's conspiracy.

He will not forget that there are five other world nobles in Nanjun County who want to kill him. In Lionheart City, there are almost a large number of Swadia royal knights, Sarion lion knights, and Enfass Empire mages guarding them. Even if the five world nobles come together, Kant is not afraid, but if the Lionheart comes out City, if he did not bring the army and faced five world nobles, Kant was not sure that he would survive.

"Wait for another month, if there is no specific news from the five world nobles, I will directly attack the South County Leader! After a month, the East County Leader will almost lose its value! After all, even if it is training troops, it is a real battlefield, all the time. Not the dead. It’s just that the war was many times longer than the previously planned battlefield.” Kant thought: “In this way, there may be a chance to see what the so-called black crown is. This kind of treasure can convince the five world nobles that they can attract me with it and go get it in person.”

Kant understands that if he is really attracted, he will first use the projection of will to observe the treasure. Only if the treasure is really attractive enough can he take it himself. As the veteran nobles, the five world nobles will naturally use will projection, and will also take into account Kant's ability. Therefore, that black crown should really be a very valuable treasure.

These are all conjectures of Kant, but they are already close to the truth.

...

Among the fiefdoms of Baron Tyr Isai Maud, he is now in the midst of war. It is now September, officially his disaster month. However, he is worthy of being the most powerful being among the world barons in the world of Yisai. He easily suppressed a demon from the abyss, attacked frantically, and at the same time was able to separate out part of his spirit and create a projection. A meeting with four other world nobles.

The location is still in the same conference room in the fortress in Baron Tyr Isaiah Maud's half-plane fief.

"Ryan, the dark crown you provided doesn't seem to have an irresistible attraction for Baron Kant as you said?" Baron Tyr Isaiah Maud bluntly faced Ryan Isaika Baron Mellon said.

"Kant's mother, Sophia, was the glorious saint of the Shining God Cult of the Silver Plate Kingdom. How could the bloodline she gave birth be attracted by the dark crown, which is completely an extraordinary item of dark laws? Ryan, a spy of my family, has seen Kant before. The baron casts the radiant field!" Baron Victor Isaiah Ino also said rudely.

The four world nobles all put the blame on Baron Ryan Isaiah Cameron. As Kant's father, he seems to have no understanding of Kant at all. The supernatural item, trying to lure Kant out of Lionheart City.

"Potter and George!" Baron Ryan Isaiah Cameron's words were very blunt, almost literal.

The four world nobles have dealt with him for a long time, and naturally they know that Baron Ryan Isaiah Cameron is putting the responsibility on the two Viscount Potters who were promised by the five families to perform in front of Kant. and Viscount George.

"Show the crown!" Without waiting for the other world nobles to answer, Baron Ryan Isaiah Cameron left a cold and hard voice with four words again, and then the figure was disillusioned, and he just left.
