Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing From a Rundown Yard

Chapter 1141: The Prince Got Scared and Defected

In addition to urgently contacting the new legendary powerhouse to come.

Prince Carter Pendragon also made new demands to Marquis Henry.

"Lord Marquis, I think this competitive meeting should make new adjustments."

He picked up the wine glass and took a long sip. Then he looked at Marquis Henry and said seriously.

Marquis Henry's face was solemn. He could see that the originally proud and arrogant Prince Carter was now timid and wary of the small competition.

"oh?"

"How would you like to adjust?"

He raised his eyebrows and stared at Prince Carter, waiting for the next step.

Regarding this proposal, Prince Carter seemed to have already made plans. He didn't care about Marquis Henry's scrutinizing eyes and said it bluntly.

“Set the threshold for participation in competitive conferences.”

"All participants must have a kingdom title of knight or above."

"Or jointly recommended by at least three viscounts."

As soon as these words came out, Marquis Henry frowned.

The Lancaster family has fallen in favor of Princess Anna. For him, taking advantage of the critical moment of the competition to capture Prince Carter has become the best way to make a name for himself.

But now, Prince Carter has obviously become suspicious.

Although this suspicion may not have arisen because of him, it did affect subsequent plans.

After thinking for a moment, Marquis Henry shook his head.

"This is inappropriate."

"The Athletic Conference only happens every few years."

"Many young people are gearing up and eager to prove themselves at the conference."

“And it’s also a way for Big City to select emerging talents.”

"Limiting the title is equivalent to cutting off the hope of these young people."

Marquis Henry Lancaster did not show too much excitement, but he still expressed his refusal in his words, because limiting the titles of participants did go against the original intention of holding the athletic conference.

His refusal made Prince Carter look unhappy.

But Marquis Henry is, after all, the local consul and an out-and-out host, so he will not take out the prince's dandy temper on the Marquis.

This is not the imperial city dominated by Grand Duke Jonathan, and it is not his turn to run wild.

"Hehehe..."

After assessing the situation, Prince Carter suppressed the anger in his heart and smiled lightly to cover up his emotional fluctuations. However, he still did not give up, and then added.

“You can have another one next year.”

"I'll pay all the expenses!"

As he spoke, he took out several large treasure box style money boxes from the space storage bracelet.

After opening it, it was filled with 100 dinar steel coins.

There are at least thousands of dinars in this box, which is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of dinars in wealth.

Marquis Henry narrowed his eyes and finally said nothing, just shook his head.

If it were true that the titles of participants in the competition were limited.

Then the number of participants in this competitive meeting will be only one-tenth of the original number at most.

It would be even more troublesome for Princess Anna to sneak in.

"In this case, I, the prince, will not join in the fun of the competition."

Prince Carter's eyes were extremely gloomy, and he simply chose to show off.

In response, Marquis Henry made a sign of submission, and then looked at his youngest daughter Penny.

"It's up to you whether to participate or not."

"But my little girl must participate."

"The purpose of this competitive meeting is to celebrate my little girl's birthday."

"If Penny doesn't show up, there will definitely be protests from the people."

"The athletic competition will be broadcast throughout the city through magic projection. This is Penny's first public appearance. She is the youngest child of the Lancaster family."

Marquis Henry knew where Prince Carter's weakness was.

He was easily caught.

As expected, Prince Carter's expression changed several times as soon as these words came out.

Penny, who was sitting at the table, did not speak from beginning to end. Instead, she remained quiet and concentrated on her meal.

She only needed to assume a neutral attitude to control the prince.

After all, this is what the prince is good at.

Therefore, the debate at the scene did not expand and always revolved around the prince and the marquis.

"Well, okay then!"

"But I will sit with Penny and never separate."

"Even if you show up."

Prince Carter is not stupid, but because he has lived in a relatively comfortable environment since he was a child, and is used to being bossed around, he is too lazy to think a lot of the time.

But tonight, he instinctively sensed the implicit hostility from Marquis Henry.

He wasn't sure if it was because of his rudeness these days that he had angered the other party.

Thoughts came and went, and he decided to hold his hand first before talking.

There are less than three days left before the competition. If we take some special measures, we still have time to ask for help.

If he hadn't taken Penny away smoothly, he would have stopped staying in the giant city of Lentax!

Faced with his new conditions, Marquis Henry nodded and agreed smoothly.

It didn't matter if Carter wanted to sit with Penny, since Penny knew what to do when something happened.

After reluctantly reaching a consensus, Prince Carter grinned with an ugly smile and raised his glass to toast Marquis Henry.

"I wish you good health…"

Late at night, in a secret room in a cellar somewhere in the third circle of the giant city.

Ella and Heya were packing their clothes.

They have green leaf-shaped space storage pendants hanging on their chests, and they have a small storage space.

In fact, Ella and Heya are not biological sisters, but they grew up together and have been together for a long time. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are like brothers.

After leaving the Silver Moon Forest and coming to the giant city of Lentax, the two sisters supported each other even more.

They have experienced many dangers and have saved each other's lives.

In the eyes of both parties, this is a lifelong friendship.

As the backbone of the Elf Eyes in the city, they left the secret stronghold tonight without authorization, packed their bags, and seemed to be leaving here.

[In view of the general environment, this site may be closed at any time. Please move to the permanently operating source-changing App as soon as possible. 】

Bundles of arrows were put away in the storage compartment, and all daily clothes were put away.

They had prepared everything well, but they didn't stock up on any food. They didn't look like they were going on a far journey.

"Is everything packed?"

Heya wiped the sweat from her forehead, lifted the long bow on her back, and looked at Aila not far away.

At this time, Ella was holding a magic pendant, looking thoughtfully at her parents reflected in the light and shadow.

Hearing Heya's words, Ella nodded slightly.

"Everything is ready..."

"But Sister Heya, do we really want to betray Elf Eyes?"

Ella said hesitantly.

But Heya shook her head sadly.

"This is not a betrayal."

"The eyes of the elves in the giant city of Lentax have long been blinded by hatred."

"According to the elders' regulations, we should have evacuated this city long ago and accepted new arrangements."

"But Greenleaf prophet Gassani Voight wavered in his decision-making on the matter."

"And the other guys are determined to be revengeful."

"There's no point in continuing to follow them."

"Only killing, revenge and destruction cannot bring any feedback to relatives and homeland."

Heya is more mature and seems to have figured out a lot after what happened these days.

It turns out that she was also blinded by hatred and often participated in hunting down slave traders.

But looking back now, the Elven Eye in the giant city of Lentax has indeed deviated from the original intention.

If you are unable to contribute to your hometown, you will be destroyed by hatred sooner or later.

The conflict between the Eyes of the Elf and the humans in the giant city of Lentax is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong.

But the general environment has already determined the final result.

Not only the Elf Eyes, but almost the entire Elf clan has lost power.

Trying to make a living in the vast continent is basically like trying to survive in the cracks.

Unless the elves, who have been dormant for a long time, can suddenly rise and become a powerful ethnic group in the mainland again.

Otherwise, the situation is what it is and cannot be changed by oneself.

But speaking of it, the dormant elves may emerge in this era change.

The purpose of hibernating is to accumulate strength and become the protagonist of the mainland again.

In any case, both Ella and Heya have doubts about the Elf Eyes in the giant city of Lentax.

So they decided to leave and go to Zong Shen.

Maybe there, they can find a new meaning in life.

And as the successor of Azshara, following him will have the opportunity to come into contact with more clues about the remains of the elves in the ancient times.

When the silent Ella heard her sister Heya say this, she also gave up the last worries in her heart.

They packed up their appearance, left the secret room in the cellar, disguised themselves and blended into the night. After finding a safe place to stay, they used the [Communication Crystal] to contact Zong Shen.

When Mr. Zong received the communication request from the second woman, it was already 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning.

He slept in the guest house of the Earl of Lyce.

As for Earl Lyce's original bedroom, he disliked it and didn't want to live there.

God knows what outrageous games this guy has played in the bedroom.

Zong Shen lowered his head and looked at the unfamiliar number that appeared in the crystal. After thinking for a moment, he chose to answer the call.

"Zong...Zong Shen."

"Ella and I are ready to join you."

"Are you...still in the city?"

Heya's voice came from the other end of the [Communication Crystal], which instantly made Zong Shen energetic.

"where are you?"

He did not take the initiative to report his location, but asked where the other person was.

Firstly, it can prevent the Elf Eye's conspiracy, and secondly, he also knows that Ella, Heya and Earl Leith cannot deal with each other, so they must not have the intention of harming others, and must have the intention of guarding against others.

Seeing that the competitive meeting was about to be held, he didn't want to cause any trouble at this juncture.

You must know that the Eye of Elf has been taking root in the city for a long time. It will be very difficult to deal with people.

There are many secret passages and secret chambers inside and outside the city. It can be said that they come and go without a trace.

Zong Shen took this seriously and tried not to cause trouble.

But the two women came to him voluntarily, and this situation is another story.

Although the territory is now prosperous, the addition of two senior elf rangers is also a good sign.

"We are in the second circle, the Red Stone Flower Tavern."

Heya obviously knew the rules and skillfully reported the location of the two of them.

Zong Shen knew what was going on, so he got out of bed and called Xiao Heizi.

Let it take the convoy under Count Lais to the second circle to pick up Heya and Ella.

By the way, let him explain the situation to the two girls along the way to avoid misunderstandings.

In fact, the enmity between the second daughter and Earl of Leith mainly stems from the slave trade that the Earl had previously operated.

Now that Earl Lais has been conquered by Zong Shen, the slave trade will also be cancelled.

Strictly speaking, the thing that bothered Heya and Ella the most no longer exists.

So let Xiao Heizi explain it, and the other party should be able to accept it.

After all, compared to their small-scale retaliation, Zong Shen's approach was to cure both the root cause and the root cause.

The previous attacks could only be regarded as harassment to Earl Leith.

Unless he died, it would be impossible to give up the slave trade so easily.

You must know that this kind of transnational and cross-regional slave trade is a real huge profit industry!

The means determines the vision, and also determines the final result of handling a matter.

After sending Xiao Heizi to pick up the people, Zong Shen no longer felt sleepy.

He restarted the [Quantum Furnace Core (Middle Demigod Level)] and walked to the courtyard of the manor wearing a brocade nightgown.

The former butler who followed the count was also taken into his territory by him.

Seeing him getting up, he quickly brought his maid to serve him.

Zong Shen was lying on the couch in the courtyard, admiring the moonscape.

The night in Endless Continent is very quiet, and the sky is unobstructed.

Stars dotted the night sky, decorating the beautiful moon.

The maid brought the drinks and the butler put a blanket around his arms.

Zong Shen enjoyed the treatment of a noble and the quiet night.

It wasn't until after dawn that the carriage that brought Ella and Heya drove into the stable on the side of the manor.

The two women already knew the whole story on the road, but they were still a little embarrassed to enter the Earl's manor in person.

In the past, they would secretly sneak into the vicinity of the manor and secretly observe the situation.

When they find someone out, they will look for opportunities to ambush them.

Now they can enter the manor as half owners.

Count Lais didn't sleep much that night because he couldn't sleep without a woman.

So I came to Zong Shen's side to wait on him early in the morning.

When the two women entered the manor, Earl Lais had no reaction.

Although he knew that there were two figures, Ella and Heya, and they often caused trouble.

But Lys Kazan had never seen their true faces.

Members of Elf Eyes will never show their true colors when operating in the city.

Multiple disguise measures must be prepared.

However, the second daughter after seeing Count Lais had a rather violent reaction.

"Damn Count Lyce!"

The straight-tempered Ella habitually yelled angrily.

Heya originally wanted to speak, but she reacted quickly, came to her senses, and remembered that this was Zong Shen's territory, so she quickly covered Ella's mouth.

Count Lais was surprised and doubtful, but he did not dare to make any mistake in the presence of Zong Shen.

He could only look at the two girls hesitantly.

At this time Zong Shen laughed softly.

"hey-hey."

"Lais, don't be nervous. You two should be considered old acquaintances."

"They are all members of Elf Eyes!"
