Templar Sun King: Chapter 40 Martin\'s plan
Falcon City, Martin's Manor.
The Falcon City at this time was no longer the calm and peaceful place Adam had when he first came here.
But Martin stayed in his manor as if nothing had happened, drinking wine while waiting for news.
Pepin rushed back from outside with a new message for Martin.
"The army that went out to destroy the goblins found something abnormal. I just learned that someone in the army has fired a flare. All the troops who see the flare will return to Falcon City as soon as possible."
"What direction did it launch from?"
"southeast."
"The southeast is the direction of the 3rd Brigade of the 3rd Army. If I remember correctly, they should face the attack of the Church of Dawn. They could still have time to launch the flares under the ambush of the Church of Dawn!" Martin was very surprised.
Martin is very clear about the ambush of the Dawn Church. In fact, the Dawn Church and the deputy city lord who wanted to seize the power of Falcon City reached an agreement through him, a businessman.
He knew that the leaders of the Dawn Church this time should be two priests with strength reaching the bronze rank, and even a silver bishop would be dispatched.
Under the circumstance of intentional ambush and internal response, it is absolutely terrifying for a group of priests to cast spells together, and it is not difficult to eliminate the third group with a large number of people.
Once the third brigade was eliminated, the deputy city lord would completely join the Dawn Church's camp to gain the support of the Dawn Church.
Although the Church of Dawn wanted to preach in Falcon City and spread the influence of the Lord of Dawn, it did not want to simply support the Deputy City Lord to seize power. They needed the Deputy City Lord to stand completely on the side of the Dawn Church to serve the church.
Therefore, the third brigade became the victim of the deputy city lord, expressing the deputy city lord's determination to cooperate, and the Church of Dawn was also willing to see a weakened Falcon City to facilitate their control.
But now it seems that things have changed.
"Are all the priests of the Church of Dawn on Celtic fake, how can such a simple thing be messed up?" Martin was very angry.
He has enough reason to be angry.
As a big businessman, he wants to incorporate the entire seven-city federation and the local trade of the noble council into his own business territory, but he is not a native of Celtic, even in the name of the Buffison Business Alliance. Truly do a good job in this market.
So he needed support and acted as a messenger between Dawn Church and Falcon City. He bets on the deputy city lord to provide the necessary funds, and once the deputy city lord seizes power, he can get the support of a city lord.
Even because Falcon City joined the Dawn Church camp and caused a major change in the entire Celtic political force, the benefits he could get in it were very exciting.
Of course, these are all based on the success of the Dawn Church and the Deputy City Lord. But now it seems that half of it has failed. The other half of the uncertain situation depends on whether the Deputy City Lord can kill the City Lord in this operation.
"Is there any news from the City Lord's Mansion?"
"No, it's still the same as yesterday. It seems that even the city lord is seriously injured."
On the fourth day of the operation to annihilate the goblins, after confirming that the troops belonging to the city lord had left Falcon City far enough, the deputy city lord immediately started the operation.
I don't know what method she used. First, she invited the former city lord Stuart, who was traveling abroad, to come back to challenge the city lord.
Then, with the control of Falcon City for many years, he immediately took all important departments into his own hands. Especially the entire city defense army, from the general to the army commander, has become her people.
Disobedient soldiers were imprisoned or killed long before the operation began.
Among the three major legions of Falcon City, the generals of the first legion were loyal to the city lord, but half of the soldiers were sent out under the plan of the deputy city lord to exterminate the goblins to gain the position of lord. Army) control.
Six years ago, the incumbent city lord Stewart was defeated by the city lord's challenge, and he lost his position as the city lord and had to travel.
However, the result of this door-to-door challenge was still the same, failure. The only difference is that the last time the city lord saved his life, this time he directly killed him in battle.
But if the city lord was not injured while defeating a silver-ranked warrior, absolutely no one would believe it, and the deputy city lord also thought so. So she shot at the moment the city lord killed Stewart.
No one would have imagined that the little woman, the deputy city lord, was actually a silver-ranked professional, the Frost Mage.
She has always given the image of a very gentle female mage. The battle between the city lord and the deputy city lord lasted for nearly half an hour. In the end, neither side was fully sure of defeating the other, and Falcon City was temporarily in a strange situation.
Although the deputy city lord has almost controlled the entire Falcon City, the city lord still lives in the city lord's mansion.
If the city lord is not dead, the deputy city lord can never truly become the ruler of Falcon City.
The city lord wanted to abolish the deputy city lord, but the city lord who had been focusing on improving his own strength for six years and had not paid attention to the affairs of the city could not find anyone he could trust. He could only hide in the city lord's mansion to restore his strength.
So now Martin is facing such a situation.
However, he knew that once the deputy city lord's injuries recovered, he would bring the other armed forces in the city to completely drive the city lord out of Falcon City or even kill him.
"Burns went to the Mages Association in the morning. It is estimated that he invited the president of the association to join forces against the city lord with the conditions of the deputy city lord."
This is also impossible.
Originally, according to their plan, after confirming the destruction of the third brigade, the Silver Bishop went to Falcon City to join forces with the deputy city lord to deal with the city lord, the Silver Warrior, but they didn't know what happened in the middle, and the Silver Bishop did not appear on time.
The president of the Mages Association is an earth mage who has reached the silver rank. With the addition of the deputy city lord, the frost mage, the situation of the weak city lord is not good.
In the final analysis, whoever has the highest strength can occupy the dominant position. This is an eternal truth.
All he has to do now is wait. If the deputy city lord fails, his previous efforts will be in vain, and he might have to leave Falcon City to avoid becoming the unlucky person for the city lord to vent his anger.
"But it's not that there is no chance." Martin thought of the young White Mage, which was another choice for him.
In his plan, the deputy city lord is not the only choice, Adam is also.
In fact, he had the idea of placing a bet on Adam when he first saw Adam's magic skills.
Although he is not a mage, he has a very broad vision, and he knows the mystery and potential of Adam after just a few contacts.
Whether it is the holy light spell, the summoned light spirit, or the militia loyal to Adam, all of them illustrate Adam's extraordinaryness.
Especially after Adam expressed his interest in the position of lord, Martin immediately made the decision to bet on him. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
So he told Adam everything he knew, investing while Adam was still weak, the future gains would be higher. This was his intuition in his businessman career for many years.
If the Deputy City Lord succeeds, the ending will be perfect. With the support of a City Lord, the caravan will develop rapidly.
If the deputy city lord fails and the city lord does not find him, Adam's success is also a good result.
Supporting a small lord of Falcon City will not be a small reward in the future. Martin was convinced that Adam could take the lordship.
No matter how things develop, Martin seems to be the winner.
But the truth is not so simple, Pepin's next news makes Martin very sad.
"Adam seems to be with the people from the Third Brigade of the Third Army."
"What? How could he be there!"
"It seems that Burns made a mistake when assigning tasks, and assigned Carlos' task to Adam."
"Damn it, stupid Burns."
Martin has everything figured out now. Adam must have played an important role in why the third brigade was able to launch signal bombs under the ambush of the Church of Dawn.
When he thinks of this, his feelings for Adam are very mixed for a while.
Because Adam's existence made his plan fail in half, and more importantly, the preparations made on Adam seemed to be in vain.
However, all this just proves the fact that his vision is very vicious, Adam is indeed worth investing and is a white mage with great potential!
