Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair.

"Master, you have indeed thought it through..."

The plague doctor praised him, but Evander's face became even uglier: "I'm not interested in listening to your flattery - how is Uncle Mark?"

"Mark used Lord Ron's medicine, so he is naturally fine," the plague doctor said immediately, "This lord's power is really amazing. Even I can't figure out how he did it."

"That potion seemed to contain a lot of ingredients I was familiar with, but after careful investigation, I found nothing. It was as if the ingredients were fabricated out of thin air."

"Uncle Mark had to stay in secret... Tsk, if not, he wouldn't have been infected for so many days without anyone noticing him," Evander stamped his feet in self-blame, "I'm the only one who can contact him, but I was the first one to fall ill!"

"You are not to blame for this," the voice behind the plague doctor's mask consoled him. "Who could have expected that the Land of Delusion would be so dangerous? We thought it was just a rumor spread by adventurers... Speaking of this, Master, how about we just forget about it? The Land of Delusion is so dangerous, why bother setting foot here?"

"Although you... but after all, it is also——"

"Shut up!"

Evander shouted angrily in a low voice, and the tone of his voice combined with his ferocious expression frightened the plague doctor so much that he trembled all over and couldn't help but take half a step back.

"Who among you knows the hardships I've gone through over the years? Except for Uncle Mark, everyone else is ignored. Going to curry favor with my brothers? If I didn't have a contact person, there would be no need for you to stand here and point fingers!"

"I, Evander Holt, must take my first step here!"

Under the mask, the Holt family's attendant smiled bitterly. He had heard that the young master had some mental problems due to his early frustrations. If he was not the closest emergency contact, he would not want to serve the young master even if he was beaten to death.

Only Mark is willing to follow him...it will end badly for both of them.

Evander seemed to realize that something was wrong with his emotions, so he rubbed his cheeks and coughed twice, adjusting his state of mind. The corners of his mouth once again showed that smile that indicated that everything was under control.

"I'm sorry, I lost my composure just now, please don't mind it."

"Master, I am a servant. Isn't it normal for you to scold me?" Two bitter laughs came from behind the bird-beak mask. "I also know that it is not easy for you. Just tell me, what do you need me to do? I will definitely try my best to do my best."

"Even if I can't compare to Mark..."

"Don't say that," Evander hastened to comfort him. "This time, I really need an expert like you who is proficient in alchemy to do it. Although Uncle Mark has been with me the longest, he is no match for you in this aspect."

"You are so flattering. How can I stand such praise from you? Just tell me where you need me, and I will do my best to cooperate with your plan."

"But let me say this: this fantasy land is really not a good place. If you want to prove yourself, why don't you go to Carolina or other city-states? They are also the necessary places on our trade routes." "That's different," Evander smiled slightly, "You don't know what kind of people and forces I have seen in the past few months since I came here. There is definitely a big drama going on in this fantasy land! If I can play a role in it, I can gain great benefits for me and my family!"

"Moreover, this place has many advantages over other city-states. First, there are few other forces willing to intervene. Since we drove the Bengtson family away, we have become the largest trading group here. Second, this is a major transportation route. If you don't want to take the detour by water, this is the only way from Rose City to Yungang, which has extraordinary strategic significance. Third, there is the lord here."

There was a flash of contempt and disdain in Holt's eyes: "When you first came, I thought you were a great man, but now it seems that you are just a rag covered with a new cloth. You are not my opponent at all."

"He held this meeting to carefully manage this territory, but he actually had the crazy idea of ​​setting up a pure technology group! How can a group of stubborn people who are obsessed with their own fields, naive and ignorant of the times, run such a sophisticated and complex instrument as administration? In the end, it will definitely be a mess, and he might even ask me to take over the mess for him!"

As the person who has the most contact with the affairs of the Delusion Land, Holt's confidence is not blind arrogance.

"I see that Kalad is blind and brutal! I see that Constance is still childish! I see that Boonie is pure and innocent! I see that Gillianis - cough!"

Evander snorted. He still hadn't figured out the true nature of the moon elf.

"He wants a technical department, doesn't he? I'll give him a technical department," Evander grinned, "How about you help me do this?"

"I will recommend you to join them, and you can choose the guy who is easy to control and deceive as your subordinate. Then Ron will definitely not doubt my motives, haha!"

"So...what do you need me to do?"

The man under the bird mask hesitated: "This lord is very powerful now. If he is discovered by mistake..."

"So what if we're discovered?" Evander smiled smugly. "Your alchemy skills are fake? Your knowledge of herbal medicine is fake? Are you helping to treat patients here these days fake?"

"Since it's all true, what if he finds out that I planted you? I haven't done anything to let him down yet."

He intended to rebel, but he hadn't even started to plan for it. Even if Ron noticed this hidden chess piece, could he punish himself for it like he punished the people of the Bengtson family?
It's so evil and absurd!
"Then Master, when are you going to..." The plague doctor who belonged to the Holt family of Yungang hesitated for a moment, "When are you going to turn against the lord here?"

Naturally, he would not say nonsense like "I think the lord here is pretty good." He was just a servant and he would do whatever his master told him to do.

"Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?" Ivender sneered, "They are indeed quite strong, but what does it matter?"

"I will naturally calculate every step carefully. I will continue to play along with them and manage the land that I will truly be in charge of in the future, until the time is right!"

The plague doctor snapped his fingers in front of his "bird's beak": "Tell them to give me everything I have, and even everything they have!" (End of this chapter)
