  Chapter 208 Not many people are worth your initiative to reach out (three in one)

   "He didn't lie about this matter."

  When these words reached his ears with the vibration of the air, and after complex transformations made his brain understand the meaning, Seth fell into an ice cellar.

   "You, you lied to me." He raised his finger tremblingly.

  He regretted it, regretting why he was so impulsive.

  He has always known that his impulsive personality will lead to many consequences, but without exception, all of these consequences have been resolved by him alone, and he has never implicated others.

  Businessman Hayes once said that his personality would definitely suffer a lot in the future, but the relationship was not good at all, so he just let the other party's words be farts.

  He never expected that this first loss would be so huge.

   "Lying to you? No." Lynn denied, "First, you didn't ask me. Second, what I said was to help you defeat the current lord. Has he fallen now?"

"fall down."

   "Did I lie to you?"

"not at all."

  “.”

  Taking a deep breath, Seth, who realized that he had been tricked by word games, did not make a fuss.

  He knew that making a fuss was the most useless option at this time.

   "Please tell me a solution to the problem."

   "A solution?" Lynn spread his hands, "Go and drag the king off the throne and sit on it by himself."

  “.”

   "This is not a joke." Lynn smiled lightly, "If you hope that nothing happens to these 8,000 people in this incident, then this is the only way."

"Civilians and nobles, there are two lines in the middle that are almost not allowed to cross. Just like the legendary love story between a commoner soldier and a noble lady, it is either recorded as a legend, or forgotten and returned to the loess. And this is just a violation of the nobles. It’s just a love affair for face, replace it with breaking into the nobleman’s manor, plundering the assets belonging to the nobleman, even taking the nobleman himself, and killing him with the most cruel means.”

"Whether it is from the kingdom's laws or the balance of interests, it is impossible for the nobles to treat this incident as if nothing happened, and if you really want to save them, you have to become a king, gain power, and amend the law , to engrave his acquittal on the stone tablet in front of the Grand Court of Catalena."

  The first two laws of the kingdom are inscribed on the slate in front of the Grand Court of Catalina.

   1. The goddess is supreme.

   2. The law is loyal to the king.

   This is the root of all the laws of the Rhine Kingdom. He asked Seth to fill in the murder without guilt, basically saying.

   "Hey, you go and turn this kingdom upside down."

  Seth thinks that he is not particularly mediocre, but this kind of thing, even if it is a fantasy, will be laughed at by people.

Taking a deep breath for the second time, Seth suppressed his anger and asked: "Okay, I already know the perfect solution to this matter, so, I would like to ask you to tell me what I can do next, so as to reduce the losses. ,drop to lowest?"

  This question seems to be a bit beyond Lynn's expectations.

  He thought for a while and said, "Go to Fort Marien and join the army."

  Join the army?

   At that moment, countless thoughts flashed through Seth's mind.

  What is the use of joining the army?

  Does he want me to be promoted as quickly as possible?

  The frontier army is independent from the nobles, which is a good way to counter the noble camp.

  However, although there has been a lot of friction between Landi and Rhine recently, it is far from reaching the point of direct conflict.

   Without war, how can you quickly improve your status?

  Furthermore, his father was still a businessman, so he would be in some embarrassment if he thought about it.

   Seth thought he couldn’t figure out the answer with his own brain and asked in puzzlement, “Why?”

   "Because, if you go to join the army, when there is a war between Landi and the Rhine in the future, you can try to kill the kings of Landi to come to me and avenge them for what you think."

  Seth almost took out the dagger attached to his calf and stabbed him to death.

  He thought about it for a long time, but what he got was such an answer that was almost like a joke.

"asshole!"

  Seth gritted his teeth and spoke, his relatively bright eyes were full of anger.

  He got it.

  The person in front of him is a wicked devil who is good at teasing a person's fragile soul with all kinds of playful words.

  He doesn't kill people, he only kills people.

   This is exactly what the devil loves to do in the legend.

  He won't tell himself the real answer.

   "I will join the army." He stared into Lynn's deep eyes, "I will come to you when the time comes."

   "I will bear the resentment of these more than 8,000 lives, and drag you down to **** together."

"must."

  He said these words in the calmest tone, then turned and left with the calmest gesture.

  Leave the room, leave the manor, and stand on the original stone road again.

  The current weather is still not free from the cold wind, and the big snowflakes are drifting leisurely under the swaying of the sky.

  He stepped on the gradually heavier boots, looked at the snow that seemed to never melt, and let the cold hit his cheeks of the same color.

  Close your eyes, he whispered softly.

   "Damn me"

   "Hey, Noel." The slightly familiar call brought his thoughts back to reality.

   This title is his external surname, but in fact, it used to be his real name.

   And in this place, there is only one person who can call him so familiarly.

   "Hoo, hoo—"

  The businessman stopped in front of Noel, hunched over, panting heavily with his knees propped up.

   "So, I finally found you. Are you crying?"

   "The snow has melted." Noel said blankly, and didn't even bother to wipe it off.

   "Okay." The businessman obviously didn't pay attention to this, he asked hastily, "What are you doing here?"

   "I heard someone talking outside the hotel, saying that a small businessman took someone to rob the noble manor? That person"

   "It's me." Noel admitted frankly, and then continued to walk, pushing the businessman's sturdy body aside.

   "Plop—"

  The businessman who fell in the snowdrift cursed secretly, isn't this guy really a boy, and immediately got up again regardless of his embarrassment.

   "Hey, hey, you go to get the benefits, why don't you call me up, now? Is it over now?"

Noel stopped, turned his head to look at the slit on the businessman's face, and sneered at the corner of his lips: "No, you can still go now, those townspeople don't know what is really valuable, They are so preoccupied with collecting gold and silver that they completely ignore 'art'."

  The merchant's eyes were wide open, and a wolf-like green glow burst out from within.

   "Ahem, Noel, you are tired, go back and rest, I'll go and have a look."

   "Go, it's still too late, the fate of being killed should be overtaken by you."

   "Okay!" The businessman walked forward a few steps with a smile, turned around and came back, "What? Kill what?"

  Noel clearly told the businessman everything Lynn said.

   "So that's it. Do you think you cried because you indirectly killed more than 8,000 people?" The businessman was thoughtful.

  Noel is tired of spending time with the merchant and is about to leave.

  Just a few steps away, he turned around and saw the thoughtful expression on the businessman's face, and asked, "Do you have a solution?"

   "No." The businessman frankly admitted that he was powerless.

  The last expectation was also shattered, and the light in Noel's eyes finally gradually dimmed.

  At this moment, the businessman spoke again: "However. We don't seem to need to do anything."

   "Yeah, there's no need to do anything." Noel smiled dejectedly, "Just watch them die, we can't do anything anyway."

   "No, no, no." The businessman waved his hand and said, "Noel, you are usually so single-minded, why are you thinking so much today?"

  Noel turned around: "If you want to make me laugh, you failed; if you want to be beaten, congratulations, you succeeded."

  The businessman shrunk his neck subconsciously, shook his head violently, and said, "Don't, don't, I'm serious."

   "When you promised him before, didn't you think so much and just believed his evil? Why didn't you believe him after the matter was achieved?"

   "Yeah, it's achieved. If you're all dead, you won't be afraid of being squeezed."

   "Naive, which legendary devil will not let the labor force in the abyss cough cough."

  The businessman who was forced by his fist coughed twice and said, "I said, you think so much, but there is actually no need."

   "My conscience cannot forgive my mistakes, and a dog without a conscience will not feel the same."

   "Can you speak seriously!" The businessman was a little annoyed by his infinite stalking, and his voice amplified slightly, "I am seriously analyzing the situation with you! Listen to me honestly, do you understand!"

   "Tch." Noel pouted, but did not continue to refute.

  The businessman sorted out his thoughts for a while, and said, "I tell you, there is one reason why I think that person didn't lie to you."

"-Benefit."

   "It is the nature of businessmen to seek profit. There are no well-intentioned merchants in the world, and the praised merchants definitely grasp more interests behind the shadow that cannot be directly looked at."

   "Now, let me ask you, what do you think he can gain from this incident?"

   Noel froze.

  He thought carefully about Lynn's every move, and found that all his actions seemed to be to fulfill his demands.

  Even if there is a problem with the method, it is indeed achieved in the end.

   and himself

   Noel couldn't figure out what he was for.

   "Is he a murderous maniac? He especially likes to kill people?" He guessed.

   "He didn't kill it with his own hands. It doesn't make the killer feel happy to kill with a knife." The businessman dismissed his guess.

   "But I didn't feel guilty on his face. People with normal hearts know that so many people died because of themselves, and they shouldn't"

   "He's not from the Rhineland." The businessman's eyes were full of confusion, "Why do people from the Blue Land feel guilty for harming the Rhinelanders?"

  Noel suddenly woke up.

   Yes, that person is not from the Rhineland!

He feels guilty because he subconsciously believes that these people are all Rhines with the same original blood as himself, and the deep-rooted nationalism makes it impossible for him to kill his compatriots for no reason without taking the blame. guilty heart.

   But that guy is not!

In the records of human history, the Kingdom of Landi is undoubtedly a land of barbarians, and the older the system, the more it pursues the unity between people, just like most people in the village will unite against outsiders, while the town Even if you see your neighbors in trouble, you may not necessarily reach out to help.

   In other words, the same nationalism runs in their blood.

   This is belief second only to faith.

   "No wonder, he won't feel guilty."

  Noel smiled miserably.

  He had viciously cursed Lynn that he would be tortured so much that he couldn't sleep at night.

   In the end, I won’t be able to sleep at night, because I’m actually the only one.

   "So." The businessman stretched out his hand to pull Noel's thoughts back to reality, "Do you think why he did these actions?"

  Noel shook his head weakly: "I can't think of it."

   "I'll tell you." The businessman pointed to the distance, "Over there is Marienburg, one of the most important frontier fortresses between the Rhine and the Blue Land."

   "And did that guy mention it in his words?"

   "Yes, but I was asked to join the army."

"It's not important. What's important is why he might go to war, and he called you to join the army in Marienburg." The businessman said seriously, "Marienburg is a place where ordinary people can't stay, and so are the soldiers inside. After careful selection, they will never recruit someone who comes from an unknown source and comes to the door by themselves."

   "But he is very sure and definitely asks you to go to Marienburg to join the army."

   "You said, why is this?"

  The merchant didn’t wait for Noel’s reply, and said to himself.

   "Because he knows that in the near future, Fort Marien will be short of manpower and start recruiting soldiers, and you, at that time, can recommend yourself without being blocked."

   "Why?" Noel was very puzzled, "I don't think there will be a war in the near future."

   "It's not a war," said the businessman. "It's an infighting."

"Indeed, that guy is right. If a commoner kills a nobleman, he will definitely be liquidated. In normal times, under the pressure of the nobleman, the king will definitely abandon these abandoned sons without hesitation. However, it is not now. Normal time."

  The businessman looked around cautiously, and said in a low voice, "That viscount is preparing for a rebellion."

   "Rebellion?!"

   "Slow down!" The businessman quickly covered his mouth.

  The news that the viscount wants to rebel is not something that can be easily concealed, because the young men who bought food in large quantities and the signs are too conspicuous.

  As a businessman with a considerable intelligence network, it is impossible for him not to know about this.

  But he didn't care, and even agreed to the task given by Lynn.

  Because rebellion will cause chaos, and chaos is the best time to make a fortune.

   It's just that, after he received the mission and knew that the other party was from Landi, he thought that Lynn was going to help the Viscount so that he could rebel better.

  Now, he withdraws such speculation, and deeply feels that a barbarian is a barbarian after all, even if he puts on human skin, it cannot conceal the simplicity and brutality in the flesh and blood.

   "Wooooooh—"

  Noel shook off the businessman's hand, and asked with some hope: "Yes! Can the name of rebellion prevent others from holding the person who killed him accountable?"

"Sorry, no." The businessman shattered his fantasy coldly, "He just had an idea, but he didn't really raise troops, nor did he shout slogans. The recruiting was all under the pretext of 'expanding the territory security force', No one can directly use this to find fault."

  “.”

   "However." The businessman smiled, changed the topic, and said, "Mr. Hogg mentioned the word 'law' to you, right?"

   "Yeah," Noll said defiantly, "and he said the only way to keep everyone safe was to change the laws."

   "That's true." The businessman nodded in agreement, "The law is one of the foundations for the stable operation of the kingdom, and the price to be paid for killing people is also a clause on it, and the existence of power adds to the power of this clause."

   "So here comes the problem."

   "Who do you think will implement this law in the end?"

  The businessman smiled brightly.

   "Aristocrat, or. King?"

  Nor Nuoer's eyes widened suddenly, and he said with great certainty: "It must be the king!"

  The law is loyal to the king, which is one of the two basic rules of Rhine law.

   It says kings, not nobles.

   "So, will the king kill his loyal subjects because of the nobles who are about to rebel?"

   "No. It should be said that he can't kill innocent people."

   "But he has to give them an explanation, such as finding out the real murderer."

   "Next time!" Noel said the businessman's usual excuse.

  The businessman scratched his face in embarrassment and said, "No, no, no, there is no way to make sure next time."

  "According to what I have seen and heard, law enforcement agencies will definitely try their best to delay when adjudicating difficult cases where the truth of the matter cannot be judged."

   "And what excuse are they delaying?"

   “‘We’re serious about finding leads’—but most of the time they’re just sitting in the office drinking tea.”

   After a pause, the businessman continued: "The law enforcement agencies in these three towns are all controlled by the viscount alone. Now that the viscount is dead, the law enforcement agencies here will naturally lose their effectiveness."

   "So, tell me, where can law enforcement officers be sent to investigate in the fastest way?"

   "Fort Marien." Noel finally understood.

  Marienburg is an important military town, and the army is the most violent law enforcement agency.

  The presence of the army, on the one hand, can prevent the nobles from intervening. On the other hand, the king can even use the excuse of 'the army is not good at investigating cases' to perfuse the nobles.

   Is the king lying?

No.

   Looking for the truth?

   is checking.

   Did you find it?

Soon!

  Noel's eyes lit up: "In other words, everyone will be fine?"

   "It's possible now, but not necessarily in the future." The businessman shrugged, "It's time to say it again."

   "What do you think his purpose is?"

  “.”

  Noel shook his head in a daze.

"You really should go to the army. After all, all soldiers need is obedience." The businessman sighed and said, "This is a place with more than 8,000 people, and there are three towns. If the army wants to manage the order that is on the verge of being broken here, I think it must come." Need to deploy a certain amount of manpower."

   "That's why they recruit people."

   "But the number of people recruited this way must not be too many—after all, those who were transferred out didn't die in battle."

   "At this time, the manpower is very weak compared to before, and the recruits have not yet received excellent training."

  The businessman smiled faintly.

   "Perhaps this is why he is sure that war will break out soon."

   "Barbarians, they don't know how to write the regulations on the declaration of war."

  Noel was shocked: "Is this, war, his purpose?"

   "War is not, but making money is." The businessman spread his hands: "After all, I know the news that the Viscount is preparing to rebel, and I am silently looking forward to this day!"

   Paused, he said softly.

   "He said at the beginning that he just used the way of thinking of a businessman to think about the purpose of my behavior, and now I am using the same method."

  He laughed complacently.

   "Don't underestimate me, think back then, I was too"

  His voice did not fall.

  The fat body fell down in front of him, Nuoer was startled subconsciously, before the vigilance in his heart could rise, his eyes suddenly went dark.

  The moment she lost her vision, she realized that her memory was rapidly fading.

  During the final moments, she stretched out her hand hard, trying to grab a remnant of memory.

  In front of the fireplace in the hall of the manor, within the ruined walls, Lynn stood up and stretched lazily.

"solved?"

   "Yes." Two replied calmly, "We are very good at this kind of thing."

"good."

  Lin En applauded, and immediately No. 2 reported the process of processing the memory of the personnel and the details worth noting.

   "Tsk." Lynn chuckled after hearing No. 2's account of the businessman's conjecture, "He is indeed a qualified businessman."

   "Although the starting point is wrong, the ending is surprisingly similar—I am not from Blueland."

  “.”

   Didn't you deny the businessman this?

  No. 2 hesitated to speak.

  He actually felt that the businessman's starting point was completely correct.

  Although my young master is not a real businessman, his behavior is no different from that of a businessman.

  Everything is based on the consideration of interests.

  From this point of view, it seems that there is no problem in saying that he is a businessman.

   "Let's talk." Sitting on the window sill, No. 6 dangled his calf and asked curiously, "Why don't you just tell that little girl what you think?"

   "When she left, her heart was about to break—according to my experience in disguise, she should be a pretty girl without the disguise."

  Lyn smiled and said, "I've told him everything he wants to know, but he didn't think of a suitable question to ask me."

   After a pause, he asked back: "Should I take the initiative to explain for him-I don't even want to know what his real name is."

   "In this world, there are not many people worthy of your offer." Number Two expressed what he believed to be the truth in calm words.

   "Okay, I was wrong." No. 6 cried a few times in a fake manner, and the crying sound was unexpectedly not hoarse, and even a little sweet.

"Do you have any other questions?"

  Looking at the two shaking their heads at the same time, Lynn stood up.

   Now that the first task is done, it's time to move on to the next location.

  But he didn't leave here immediately, but walked towards the huge French window on the side.

  Eric's manor was built on a hillside, with no forest around it, and the view was very good.

  Maybe it was an illusion, he suddenly felt that he saw a shadow of Marienburg.

   "Will the war really come?" He said to himself, and the two behind him were silent.

  As an institution directly under the king, they should have responded to Lynn's behavior of harming the country at this time.

   But they don't.

   They used to be loyal to Earl Blazer, and now they are loyal to the future Earl Blazer.

  Never, never was this country.
