"Comparable to a legendary assassin?"
"Or a powerful special bloodline?"
Isaac's eyes moved unconsciously.
He originally thought that Messelt's previous actions were to compete with Namalt for the power of the "Six-person Council", so he opened the Shadow Thieves Guild to a certain extent in exchange for his power to completely solve the shadow control. Or, break off one of Namalt's arms.
But what Barrett says now...
A strong man comparable to the legendary level is also an assassin. Even he must pay attention to this!
Not only has Barrett never heard of such a strong man before, but he also has evil bloodline that is suspected to be from the lower planes...
No wonder Barrett said that there might be something very wrong with this person's identity!
"Don't worry yet!"
“It’s not time to start a real war with Amn yet, let’s see how they react first.
As long as it does not prevent Rhodesides from taking over the Seranchat family and does not hinder our cooperation in the navy and the development of the New World, then let it go for the time being.
Alternatively, you can also secretly investigate through the outlet's potential influence on the Shadow Thieves Guild. "
"However, if they still don't give up and are still stubborn...then I have to ask you again to prepare a hunting team just for him!"
Isaac did not look down upon a strong man who was equal to a legendary assassin.
Even though such an assassin poses basically no threat to him personally, it is different to everyone else in the kingdom.
If a war really breaks out, assassins like this will definitely be on the list of people he wants to kill first!
"That's fine!"
"In that case, I will help that person first and gain control of Wellen City first!"
Barrett nodded quickly in agreement.
…
Point to Amn, the mobilization and maneuvering of the army!
Pointing to the joint cooperation of the Knights of the Shield, the Security Bureau and the Anbu, and the cooperation of the Dragon Cult and the Dragon Allies!
But that's not all.
Point straight at the navy, straight at the new route, straight at the new continent.
Isaac, who has never been a solitary person and has always been good at mobilizing the power of groups, almost simultaneously, and with the cooperation of the Consulate, used the former "Independent Body" and "Elder Council" as the core framework to launch a campaign in the green of nature. The establishment of the "West Coast United Company" began.
This joint company with the slogans of "exploring new sea routes" and "developing new continents" immediately became the focus of all the kingdom's businessmen and even all the kingdom's people as soon as it came out.
Incomparable enthusiasm, a lot of manpower and material resources, and more importantly... the hearts of the whole people!
If we say that the tense situation with Amn before, may have caused some people to worry about business damage, and then have complaints in their hearts.
Now that the shares of the United Company are given priority to the citizens of the kingdom, they naturally immediately turn these complaints into high enthusiasm for the people of Amn!
If we really need to wage war against Amn to put the United Corporation back on track...then let's go to war!
This group of rising and moving waves...
Even the temples of Nature's Green, and even the various colleges, especially the Magic Branch of the Kingdom's First College, were similarly involved.
Recruitment from the military and security systems, advance preparations from the United Company, employment from large chambers of commerce, especially sought-after spellcasters, and various preferential contracts are coming one after another.
Furthermore... even the Tower of Ghosts hidden behind the Magic Branch, people are coming out one after another.
Isaac did not stop him.
Although the Magic Academy has been established in the past few years with great investment from the kingdom and enthusiastic support from major chambers of commerce, the total number of students it has accepted is only more than two hundred. Among these limited numbers, only a few have truly become mages or have awakened. There are even less than a hundred people with warlock abilities.
After all, in addition to the continuous investment of resources, the caster profession requires internal conditions that are also indispensable, and may even be more important than resources.
This inner condition.
The most important thing for a warlock is naturally the "charm" attribute.
Sufficient "charm" attribute means the close connection between the warlock and the source of ability.
And the mage...intelligence determines everything!
It took several years.
As a spellcaster who is still below level three or four, for Isaac, the meaning is to enrich the kingdom's heritage, such as supplementing the army, the security bureau, the public security bureau, etc., joining the kingdom's business group, and joining the joint company. , is also acceptable.
Only elites who have surpassed level five, mastered at least level three spells, and clearly have a malleable future can truly gain his attention.
And this attention... most of these elites have already been secretly absorbed by the Tower of Shadows!
"West Coast United!"
"What a huge formation!"
King Red's actions, the entire kingdom responded accordingly.
Even in the dark, countless eyes are paying attention, and they are all losing their luster at this moment.
especially……
The royal capital of Tethyr.
The Duke's Palace.
It was because he was particularly sensitive to all the movements of the natural green that Duke Insem mastered almost all aspects there immediately.
It was difficult to see the change in expression on his face that was too fat. However, even if he squinted, his eyes were clearly cold, which showed that he was not calm.
Starting from scratch and getting to where we are today.
Of course, there is guidance from the "Tenth Lord", but being able to receive guidance from the "Tenth Lord" is in itself a manifestation of his own abilities.
With his eyes, he can naturally see how serious the significance of this joint company, which has gathered almost all the commercial forces of the entire Red Kingdom, will be once it truly gets on the right track!
I'm afraid... their alliance with the Langding Chamber of Commerce will be completely suppressed soon!
How can...
His fingers tapped the arm of the chair rhythmically, and Duke Insem's narrowed eyes slowly narrowed.
"I have an idea!"
Madam Lusiya's sweet voice suddenly sounded from the side.
"Um?"
The Duke did not open his eyes and nodded slightly.
"Whether this so-called joint company can successfully complete its formation, at least for now, the core is Velen City."
"I don't think the people of Amn, the people on the Sword Coast, or even the people of Calinsai want to see its rise."
"Continuing to agitate the Amn people is one thing."
"Even if they are threatened by the army over there, it doesn't matter. As long as they isolate Velen City, and the lords of the Sword Coast do the same, I think... the pirates in Luskan should also attack Velen. The city’s wealth, it’s time to be tempted!”
Mrs. Lusia suppressed her likes and dislikes as much as possible.
She is not that kind of blind woman. Although she has suffered heavy blows at the hands of those lords in the Sword Coast region, it is obvious that the most important enemy of the Knights of the Shield now is only their neighbor to the north!
"You can give it a try!"
"But...this is not enough!"
Duke Insem nodded slowly and opened his eyes, his eyes as cold as poisonous snakes: "That green dragon is the root of everything. As long as he definitely pushes it with all his strength, the United Company will eventually appear!"
Although he is unwilling, Duke Insem is still very rational in his heart. That green dragon is really a legendary dragon!
As a giant dragon that is willing to give up its interests and let everyone work together, especially with its many deeds and developments, it has already gained enough credibility earlier, coupled with unimaginable power... Such a giant dragon, as long as it is clear If you want to do something, it is impossible to stop it!
unless……
"The Amn people want to incite, and let them hold back that army!"
"Plans from all aspects must be fully launched immediately, and furthermore, he must also send out solutions from all aspects!"
"Besides, we can no longer wait passively. We need to take the initiative to contact Sir Barantos!"
"While the military power over there is greatly dispersed, this may be the only opportunity to completely solve all future troubles from the root cause!"
There was a look of determination in Duke Yinsham's eyes!
Although he has never been able to figure out the details of the underground cities over there,... he still has to make a decision!
"In addition, two-handed arrangements."
"Let the other side actively respond to the formation of the joint company and join in with maximum resources!"
in this way……
Victory, you can get back this investment many times over at any time!
And if it fails...this is also a way out!
Madam Lusiya's eyes flickered, a beautiful arc curved from the end of her lips.
He nodded naturally!
…
However, their planning is certainly good.
But... not everything will go according to plan for them.
Especially when the "Knights of the Shield" have been exposed from the people of Amn.
What's more, he didn't even bother to conduct verification. Isaac, who had always wanted to suppress the "Knights of the Strong Shield" and the "Landin Chamber of Commerce", directly gave the order and immediately started a full-scale revenge operation.
Rong Guanghai who started first!
In recent years, the "dragon pirate group" that has appeared in this sea area from time to time has appeared again.
The adult red dragon Coran Nosema, the old black dragon Desper, and the mature green dragon Grinos, these three who had already formed a team during the past attack on Lei Loren, are now truly forming a team!
Moreover, this time... there is an entire fleet dedicated to carrying harvests and handling goods that are inconvenient to carry!
This is the fleet of the Dragon Worship Cult!
With such attentive service, the "Dragon Pirate Group" who was invited by Isaac and felt that they had sufficient backing, naturally no longer had to worry about anything.
The roaring dragon's breath radiates from the Glory Sea to the Steam Lake.
All fleets.
Those who don’t have the flags and emblems of the Knights of the Strong Shield and the Landing Chamber of Commerce will at least have another chance.
Anyone who catches up with these two will be completely taken down, including people and boats, or even simply sunk to the bottom of the sea.
And this strike action clearly has a slogan, which is directed at the Knights of the Strong Shield.
For a time, even if they were robbed, those who survived felt resentment and luck, and cursed the Knights of the Strong Shield.
…
It’s not just Rong Guanghai.
Even if it's Boltan's route to the Sword Coast region.
Even on the trade road, as long as it is slightly related to the Knights of the Shield.
Hits everywhere!
Isaac has invested heavily in the Kingdom Security Bureau and the Anbu over the years, and its influence covers a wide area, covering the north and south, and even the Eastern Region.
In addition, the Dragon Worship Cult is also launching its full force.
For a time, the Knights of the Shield, which could be considered a large force, were hit hard, and even the shadow of the protruding head could not be seen.
This……
The same organization with many nobles and businessmen as members suddenly became turbulent from its foundation. This turmoil was especially directed at the chief lord!
…
However, there is still no time to wait for this storm to completely erupt.
Dragon Coast.
The most chaotic, but at the same time, the richest and most powerful Ximen City!
"Everyone, you still have four hours. Before sunset, if the people of the 'Flame Dagger' have not been expelled..."
The Municipal Court of Ximen City.
A man with blue dragon scales and wings folded behind his back. Taking advantage of his height, he looked down at the people in front of him. With a wanton attitude, he stretched out a paw and clenched it tightly. A flash of lightning flashed in the center of his fist: "Then, everyone in Ximen City will face our revenge. Your ten major families who rule the organizing committee... will be our first target!"
The "Dark Blue Lightning" of the Blue Dragon Envoy!
As the one closest to Isaac among the five-color dragon envoys, Isaac launched a full-scale counterattack, but the blue dragon envoy did not just watch.
And Ximen City...
Although the Dark Night Mask had received a warning from the Dark Night Sect, the Dark Night Mask had not made any obvious movements, but the assassination organization "Flame Dagger" attached to Ximen City was still moved by the bounty.
and then……
Together with the Five-Color Temple, the monster army headed by the two-headed ogre coming from the Troll Mountains has directly swept through the surroundings of Ximen City.
The troops that attacked Ximen City were defeated head-on twice in a row.
At this time, the envoy was even sent directly, but he still came as a warning and threat!
"Insolent!"
"We have tens of thousands of elite troops in Ximen City, and we are even more protected by the gods. Do you really think that one or two small victories can send you to heaven?"
"The reason I give you shame is because the 'Flame Dagger' is also our target. If they hadn't shrunk more secretly than a mouse, we would have eradicated them completely."
"Go back and tell your master, 'Flame Dagger', and we will remove it, but it will take time..."
A nobleman in knight armor snorted coldly, expressing his dissatisfaction to the dragon man, but at the same time, he suppressed his anger slightly.
At least on the surface, the rulers of Ximen City are the ruling organizing committee represented by the ten major families.
The opponent actually threatened them and would take them as the primary target of revenge...
If it weren't for the appearance of the Blue Dragon Man, it meant that in addition to the two-headed ogre's army, there would probably be giant dragons there. He...
"My master said, you don't know, but that doesn't mean others don't know!"
"The words have been conveyed. Before sunset, we will not see the 'Flame Dagger' being expelled..."
The blue dragon man was fluttering his wings, his figure rising rapidly, but his voice was still falling clearly: "Then pray to hell!"
