The Knight's Journey to the Empire

"How can this be possible? Isn't this deceiving His Royal Highness the Prince and Lord Odyssey Wiggins?" Connor frowned, feeling a little resistant in his heart.

"How can this not be possible? You don't tell me, I don't tell me, and my brother doesn't tell me either! How can anyone know?" Adric also smiled and joined in.

"That's right! Connor, what Lord Odyssey Wiggins wants is just that special craftsmanship!"

"As long as we bring this craft back safely and hand it over to the adults intact, that's all!"

"As for the rest, my Lord is so busy that he won't bother with it!" Zahavier patiently continued to "enlighten" Connor.

"Then...what about Baron Sauron?" Connor was already somewhat tempted, but still asked with concern.

"What can we do? Just do it like this!"

"Besides, haven't we already given him 10 gold coins? And he doesn't know how many gold coins he originally had?"

"Can this little country nobleman go to His Royal Highness the Prince or Lord Odyssey Wiggins to verify it?" Zahavier's tone was full of disdain when he mentioned Soran.

Because to him, a small country noble from a remote place like Soran was not worthy of his attention at all!

"That's right! Connor, you saw it just now! That country noble was so happy when he heard that there were so many gold coins to be taken!"

"Maybe he has never seen so many gold coins in his life! So how could he imagine that there are more gold coins!" Adric continued to support.

Although he had never seen so many gold coins before, he had lived in the royal capital for a long time and thought he was accustomed to all kinds of prosperity.

Therefore, he was still full of disdain towards Sauron.

But it is obvious that this is definitely not the first time Zahavier and him have done this!

"But..." Connor wanted to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Zahavier.

"What else? But! Connor, think about it! This is 300,000 gold coins!"

"If we divide it among the three of us, each of us will get 100,000!"

"One hundred thousand gold coins, if used to buy potions, will be enough for us to advance to the upper knight profession level!"

"Think about how much your annual salary is now? One hundred thousand gold coins! It's right in front of you, and you can't earn that much even if you work for ten years!" Zahavier's voice was like the whisper of a devil, constantly tickling Connor's heart!

In the end, under the dual persuasion of Zahavier and Adric, Connor still succumbed and chose to go along with the crowd!

After all, this is 100,000 gold coins!

There are really too many!

So many that it would make people kill people directly!

And he, Connor, a knight practitioner with the professional level of Brave Knight, now serves His Royal Highness the Prince, and his annual salary is only 5,000 gold coins!

In other words, he has to work for 20 years to earn 10 gold coins!

As the saying goes: A man cannot become rich without unexpected wealth, and a horse cannot grow fat without night grass! The bold will die of overeating, and the timid will die of starvation!

So, just do it!

However, the bad premonition lingering in Connor's heart became stronger and stronger!

But at this point, Connor couldn't care less!

Just think of it as “people die for money, birds die for food”!

..............................

Your Royal Highness, Prince Leo II, are you willing to pay 10 gold coins to purchase the sea salt refining and purification technology in your hands?

How is this possible!

Without even having to think about it, Soran knew that Zahavier and the others were definitely hiding the items!

And there are quite a few hidden ones!

After all, Soran had come into contact with His Royal Highness the Second Prince!

And he also happened to know that His Royal Highness the Second Prince was not a stingy person!

This can be seen from the fact that His Royal Highness the Second Prince transferred the White Bear Territory that originally belonged to him to himself through the hands of Marquis Saladin.

Anyone who can serve His Royal Highness the Second Prince and share his difficulties will definitely not be treated unfairly by His Royal Highness the Second Prince.

And the sea salt refining and purification process in my hands!

Sauron knew that His Royal Highness the Second Prince must be well aware of the huge benefits behind this, so he asked the three of them to come over to ask for it!

Therefore, although Soran did not know what price His Royal Highness the Second Prince offered him, the 10 gold coins that Zahavier took out was definitely not the price that His Royal Highness the Second Prince originally offered!

I originally preferred to cooperate with Countess Curtis, and there is no need to explain the reasons!

However, if the three of them handed over everything they had in exchange, Sauron would have no choice but to agree!

After all, one of the people he had established as his backers was His Royal Highness the Second Prince!

Of course, the most important reason is that I am weak and cannot afford to offend these big shots!

Moreover, if I really hand over this special technology, I will be truly connected to His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and I will truly be His Royal Highness the Second Prince's person!

Therefore, at that time, even if Countess Katis wants to pursue me, I will have to think twice!

But now!

Since the three of them wanted to eat some, and a big portion at that!

Then they are bound to take the blame!

Originally, Sauron was not very willing to hand over the process of refining and purifying sea salt.

Therefore, the actions of Zahavier and the other two are exactly what Sauron wants!

Because if His Royal Highness the Second Prince investigates this matter in the future, these three people will naturally be the scapegoats!

All things can be blamed on them!

Although I will definitely have a small part of the responsibility by doing this, the vast majority of the responsibility is definitely theirs and has nothing to do with me.

So, this is why Soren said Zahavier was not smart: because they took too much!

However, despite this, Soran was not in a hurry to reject them!

Because he didn't know whether Countess Katis was willing to offend Prince Leo II!

In other words, with the strength of Countess Katis, can she resist Prince Leo II?

So he first used the excuse of sorting out the information to stabilize Zahavier and the other two, leaving room for a turnaround in the future!

At the same time, he rushed to Seagull Castle as fast as he could to ask Countess Katis for clarification!

There are actually two more reasons:

The first is that the other side has three brave knights.

On my side, Doug Johnson and I had only just broken through to the level of Brave Knight not long ago, so it was obvious that the strength on my side was still a little insufficient!

Therefore, Soran was afraid that if he refused to hand it over, Zahavier and the other two would become angry and force him to hand it over!

So this time, Sauron can be said to be looking for reinforcements and insurance!

The second reason is to keep them so that you have more options.

Then Soran can better negotiate terms with Countess Katis and gain benefits.

At the very least, we can raise the flag and make Countess Katis feel a little intimidated!

After all, Sauron also understands the principle of "don't put all your eggs in one basket"!

……

Please give me some good reviews! I was despised today because of my low score!

Broken defense, sir!
