Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 314 Test

"Nilu, bring me my collar flower."

In the small building, the girl delivered a lace collar to Ethan's room as quickly as possible, and tiptoed to fasten it on for him. Looking at Ethan, the girl said, "Dad, you seem to be in a good mood today."

"Because a life-changing opportunity is in front of you, Nilu. If everything goes well, we will be able to leave this dilapidated house soon." Ethan said, stepping on the floor.

He looked particularly energetic and energetic today. If it weren't for the almost paranoid look in his eyes, the man in front of him would have been a perfect overlap with the past. Nilu was thinking, who is he going to see?

Ethan looked like a gentleman about to go to a dinner party in his crisp suit and collar. He would only dress like this when he was meeting important people. He patted his daughter on the shoulder and strode out of the room.

In the Prancing Horse Inn, Edward was looking at his copy of the Imperial Constitution. He looked at it so seriously that nothing seemed to bother him, so he didn't know there was a visitor until the door knocked a third time.

"Who?" Edward walked towards the door.

"It's me, Ethan."

Edward opened the door and said happily, "Nice to see you again, Mr. Ethan."

He asked Ethan to come in, looked around the hallway, and then closed the door. Edward smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Ethan has already made a decision."

"Yes, I decided to take a gamble. Although I am not a gambler, I think if I don't seize this opportunity, I don't know if I will have another chance next time." Ethan nodded.

Edward agreed: "Opportunities are always fleeting. The brave will seize them firmly, but the cowardly will be content with the status quo."

"So, what are you going to do? I have to remind you that my uncle is a level 15 knight." Ethan said.

"Even if it's a knight, it's just an old knight." Edward smiled, and said: "Our strength is sufficient. As long as we have the right time, we can completely make Baron York disappear. However, the city of Sur doesn't want to be a Ideal place to get your hands on."

"This is not a problem. The Storm City army is about to go to the Aspen Mountains. I will persuade my uncle to join them. With his character, he will not rest assured that Sir Maud's people will be out of supervision in his own territory. "

"If this is the case, it would be ideal. The baron died in battle, and Mr. Ethan inherited his title and power. There is no more perfect ending than this.

"

Ethan nodded and said, "So, what are your conditions? You won't help me unconditionally, will you?"

"That's natural. After all, we are businessmen." Edward said lightly: "We came from a far away place, and we don't have any status or identity on this strange continent. The most urgent thing for us now is to have a rightful name. identity of."

Ethan walked around the room twice and said, "No problem, wait until I take the seat of the castellan. I can make you residents of Sur City."

"That's not enough, sir. My young master needs at least the status of the chairman of the chamber of commerce."

"Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce." Ethan frowned and said, "The chairman of the Chamber of Commerce in Sur City has always been Sean..."

"He has been sitting in that position for a long time, and it is time to move his position. Besides, we will bring a new industrial revolution to this city. If we make such a contribution, I don't think anyone will criticize it right?"

Ethan gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you. If you can really bring changes to Sur City, the position of chairman of the Chamber of Commerce is yours."

"Then the last point, we still need some guarantees."

"Assure?"

"This is a simple contract I drew up, Mr. Ethan, please read it." Edward took out a few pages of the contract from the drawer and handed it to Ethan.

Ethan looked at him: "Are you sure I will come?"

"That's not true, it's just a little preparation in advance."

Ethan read the contract half-believingly. On the last item, his breath became short of breath: "I need to marry my daughter to your young master, or someone he appoints, before this contract can take effect?"

"We always need a little guarantee, and marriage can guarantee the smooth progress of our cooperation. After all, with Mr. Ethan's current conditions, that's all I can think of." Edward said nonchalantly.

Ethan smiled bitterly: "What if I refuse?"

"That will only show that you are insincere, and of course we will not cooperate with you."

Ethan snorted, "It seems that I don't have much choice."

"That's the truth, but Mr. Ethan, don't worry. You will never regret your choice today."

Ethan clenched his fists, a struggling look flashed in his eyes. York's contempt and indifference kept flashing in his head. He gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand and said, "Here comes the pen!"

Edward handed over a pen, watched Ethan quickly write his name on the contract, and then sat down as if exhausting all his strength. Edward put away the contract, folded it carefully and put it in his pocket, then stretched out his hand and said, "I wish us a happy cooperation, Mr. Ethan. Oh, no, Your Excellency the future Baron."

Ethan smiled, and reached out to shake hands with Edward.

Not far from the camp in the Aspen Mountains, Allen sat on a big rock, watching Bai enjoying a delicious meal under the grass slope. The young kingsnake brought by him from the earth is fully adapted to the environment of this planet, although the beasts here are different from those on the earth. But for Bai, his budding mind control ability also had an extraordinary effect.

Affected by its supernatural power, the little beast Bai devoured automatically got out of an inconspicuous den on the side of the grassy slope, and came to the side of the king snake in a daze. Bai opened his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp, and then gradually digested it. The beasts on this planet are naturally able to absorb the natural energy of the universe. Although the amount absorbed is not large, it is already a rare delicacy for Bai.

As the flesh and blood melted, the source power in the little animal's body was absorbed by Bai little by little, making the young snake so comfortable that it even wanted to have a good night's sleep.

"Alan."

Alan turned his head, and Lucy was waving at him: "Edward is back, he has something to ask for you."

"understood."

Back at the camp, I saw Edward in the tent. The Maritan boy smiled and said, "We are going to war."

"Where's the opponent?" Allen didn't seem surprised.

"Ser York and the troops of Stormcity."

"It seems that there are a lot of enemies."

Edward spread his hands and said: "No way, this is the condition I promised to others. But in fact, our real target is Sir York alone."

Allen said: "It seems that your trip to Sur City has achieved something."

"It's not a small gain." Edward told about his cooperation with Ethan.

Hearing that marriage was included in Edward's conditions, Allen frowned. Edward said: "I know you don't want to accept it, so I added another item. You can designate someone to marry Ethan's daughter, no matter who it is."

"Then, it's up to you." Allen smiled mischievously.

"Me?" Edward himself was surprised by his decision. The young Maritan put away his smile and said seriously, "Do you trust me?"

His problem is obvious, after all, Edward has only joined recently. Once he marries Ethan's daughter, according to Edward's plan, he may be in charge of Sur City by then. If he deals with Allen in turn, Allen will be in a very disadvantageous situation.

Allen also said seriously: "We all lack trust in each other, so it is also a good choice to cultivate it from now on. So the question of whether you believe it or not, Edward, you only need to ask yourself. Are you willing to be believed by me?"

Edward laughed: "As I said before, I won't do anything against you during the contract period. That's a stupid choice. Since you don't want to take over the beautiful Miss Nilu, then let me do it for you." gone."

"What are your plans after that?"

"Let Ethan become the lord of the city, and then let him do some stupid things. In the end, the stupid Baron Ethan committed suicide. And his title and property, judging from the constitution of the empire, will fall on my head. At that time, I I have the right to canonize you as a knight. In the end, as long as I fight a few more beautiful wars, I can abdicate." Edward said calmly: "From what I saw and heard in the city of Sur, the Balegon Empire There is no shortage of wars. It has become a common practice for nobles to fight each other. Except for the important cities of the empire, the empire turns a blind eye to wars in other places. We need territories, and we can fight them out, and all of these , only needs a name recognized by the empire."

He frowned again: "Actually, it's the quickest way for you to accept Miss Nilu. You can directly become the city lord, so you don't have to make such a big detour."

Allen shook his head and said: "If I do this, we don't need to fight first, we have to fight among ourselves first."

Edward looked outside the tent, and said with a smile: "That's true, the two beautiful ladies will definitely not be able to bear that you are being scooped up by others."

"It is estimated that the coalition forces in Sur City will arrive in less than a week. We seem to have to make some preparations."

Allen stood up and said, "I'm going to see Caesar, the Baimons will participate in this war. As for us, let's just target the Baron of York."

The two left the camp. Edward had just returned, and Allen asked him to stay in the camp to rest. He took Willick and Belmode to Caesar's stockade and watched them leave. Edward murmured, "Is this a test for me? In fact, this kind of thing is unnecessary, and I still need your strength to go to Caesar's village." Find that person. So before that, no matter what happens, I will not do anything to destroy the city wall."

"Alan, let's get what we need."

(There will be another update in the evening, the addition of 30,000 red tickets! Continue to ask for subscriptions, red tickets, rewards and so on. Millions of words, the second big seal should come down soon, and then continue to explode!)
