"Charlotte, you can't make this kind of joke!" The news was too shocking. As the current leader of the Jimenez family, Colin Jimenez didn't want it to be true.
Bill Cech, the Lord of Storm City who came out together, also looked at Charlotte seriously.
Charlotte faced her father and replied respectfully: "You know my character. I rarely joke with others, and I will never joke with you about such a big thing! Late last night, the Hai Clan army suddenly surrounded Glory Town. Although the army in the town and
The adventurers fought back hard, but were still outnumbered."
"Recently, the Sea Tribe has been harassing us, and we were still fighting in the past. Why did they suddenly send troops to seize Glory Town?" Bill turned his head and looked at Colin, "Do they have to break up and launch a race war against us?"
"The current leader of the Sea Tribe is not a warlike person. Has he been ignored by his generals?" Colin also felt strange.
"Father, City Lord!" Charlotte said immediately, "The Sea Tribe generals told us that they captured Glory Town and captured hostages in exchange for the captured Sea Tribe people. It is said that some Storm City nobles captured the Sea Tribe for personal gain.
Tribe, and even deceived the Princess of the Sea Tribe. Although the Princess of the Sea Tribe escaped successfully, many captured Sea Tribes were sold and given away as pets."
"Is there such a thing?!" Colin and Bill exclaimed at the same time.
Colin quickly said to his daughter: "Charlotte, please explain this matter in detail!"
So Charlotte told her father and the city lord everything that happened in Glory Town.
After hearing this, Colin immediately called his most trusted subordinate and told him: "Immediately send someone to invite Brady, Barrett, Asimu, and the head of the Cervantes family, and ask them to come over quickly!"
"Yes!" After receiving the order, the men set off immediately.
"Let's go to the lobby and wait!" Colin said to Bill, "Let's put the internal affairs aside for now."
"Okay!" The city lord nodded decisively. After all, after such a big thing happened, everything else seemed unimportant.
When the three of them came to the hall, Ren immediately stood up to greet them.
"Ren, this is the Lord of the City, and this is my father!" Charlotte introduced, "Father, Lord of the City, he is Ren!"
"Lord City Lord, Lord Jimenez!" Renn saluted respectfully.
"Hmm!" City Lord Bill was not very interested in him.
Colin looked at Renn carefully: "Are you Renn Hooper?"
"Exactly!"
"Father, Ren stepped forward to convince the general of the Sea Tribe, so I was released and could come back to report to you! It was also because of him that the Sea Tribe separated Christine and the others in the hotel and promised not to harm them! Thanks to him this time
!”
"Oh?" Colin looked at Ren and asked in confusion, "How did you convince the Sea Tribe?"
Ren replied respectfully: "Sir Jimenez, in fact, the Sea Tribe does not want to start a war between the tribes and humans. They want to save the tribe, so they captured the hostages. I just told the other party that if they want to exchange for the tribe, they must first release goodwill.
, we cannot let humans and sea people create a spiral of hatred due to mutual misunderstanding. Only in this way can we have dialogue, solve problems through negotiation, and get mutually satisfactory results! Obviously the other party wants to solve the problem, rather than blindly confront it, so they agreed to let me escort Charlotte
Miss special comes back and promises to treat the other four distinguished ladies and all the hostages well."
"Did the other party say who the Storm City nobles were who captured the Sea Tribe? Is there any definite evidence?" Colin asked him.
"The Sea Tribe did not testify against anyone!" Ren replied, "They just asked the Storm City officials to investigate the matter thoroughly so that the captured tribesmen could go home."
"Father!" Charlotte said, "There are rumors outside that Baron Andrew seems to be related to this matter."
"A little baron cannot make the decision on such a big matter!" Colin narrowed his eyes and said, "There must be bigger people involved!"
Ren Xin said that the so-called bigger figure is King Nangris, and his purpose is to control the Sea Tribe!
Of course, this sentence cannot be said through my own mouth.
Once the other party asks, how do you explain it?
Could it be that Colin and the city lord were told that the Sea Tribe princess was actually secretly rescued by himself, and that this news was also overheard from Baron Andrew's subordinates?
If the other party finds out that he has contact with the Sea Clan, things will become complicated and misunderstandings may easily occur, and he will be unable to argue at all!
In addition, the other party asked me how I rescued the sea princess from Baron Andrew. Do I need to honestly explain the system's functions?
These are secrets that cannot be told. Even if you know the truth, you have to pretend you don't know anything.
Anyway, with the power of the five major families and the city lord, it is easy to find out the matter. As long as they want to know about the big and small things in Storm City, no one can hide it!
After waiting for a while, the heads of the four major families, Brady, Barrett, Asim, and Cervantes, rushed over after receiving the news.
As soon as they entered the hall, Christine's father, Joe Brady, shouted anxiously: "Everyone, hurry up and send troops to take back Glory Town. I am the first to take the lead. We must teach the Sea Tribe a lesson and let them know that Storm City is not something to be trifled with!"
"Qiao, please be patient!" Colin stood up to greet him and advised.
"Don't be impatient? My baby girl is in Glory Town! These damn murlocs have eaten the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard. If Christine loses a hair, I will let them exterminate the whole family!" Qiao's temper was relatively violent.
The city lord came over quickly: "For the sake of your daughter, it's better to calm down and discuss it with everyone! Sending troops will not solve the problem, but will intensify the conflict. Charlotte said that the daughters are safe now."
After hearing this, Joe calmed down a little and looked at Colin and Bill: "What else are we discussing? It was okay for the Sea Tribe to invade the coastal area of Storm City before. It was just a small fight anyway. Now they dare to capture Glory Town, even
Do those who capture us have to endure their provocations?"
"Why did the Sea Clan do this?" Zeni Barrett asked later.
Howard Asimu and Bruce Cervantes also looked at Colin nervously. Their daughters and the elite members responsible for protection were all in Glory Town.
City Lord Bill replied: "The other party is saying that someone in our Storm City is secretly arresting the Sea Clan and wants us to give an explanation and exchange those captured Sea Clan for the hostages in Glory Town and the town."
"That's right!" Colin nodded, "That's why I asked you to come here. If it's true, in order to rescue the hostages and take back Glory Town, we must find out the culprits."
"What if the sea tribe deceives us?" Qiao asked with a frown.
Colin said to him without hesitation: "If this is true, we will do everything we can to save the hostages and take back Glory Town! We will make the Sea Clan pay the price for this!"
"So we need to gather our strength and find out this matter as soon as possible!" Bill said, "It won't be too late."
