It's just that he was only twenty years old at the time, and with a long sword in his hand, he thought that the world was in his hands.
And now?
He is already fifty years old.
Over the past thirty years, he has increased his strength and experience, but also tempered his ambition.
He couldn't bear to leave Calgallon Island.
He couldn't bear to part with this inheritance.
He couldn't bear to leave his wife and children.
"leader?"
The tax official on the island asked softly.
Essenko, a former nobleman, turned his head and looked at his subordinate. He saw the twinkle in his eyes, and even saw a hint of excitement and cruelty full of expectation.
Essenko knew what the other party wanted to do.
Calgallon has never been a paradise.
Under his connivance, the open and covert fighting never ceased.
Obviously, if he chooses to escape.
The loyal subordinate in front of him would definitely sell himself out and kill all his heirs as soon as possible, just like he did in the past.
In an instant, Essenko made a decision.
"Follow me!"
The former Lidar nobleman, now the king of Calgaron Island, said this and headed towards one of the rocky beaches.
The moment he saw Goethe, Essenkor didn't hesitate at all. He bowed and trotted, and when he came to Goethe, he knelt down on one knee.
"Esenko has met your lord."
As he spoke, the king of Calgaron Island put one hand on his chest and performed a Lidar noble salute.
Can't beat it.
Can't run.
When these two roads are blocked, there is only one solution left: join.
You may lose the right to say the right thing, but it is better than having nothing or even losing your life.
Essenko knelt down on one knee.
The subordinate of the King of Calgaron Island immediately knelt down.
But the most pious are the remaining natives.
The giant wolves, devil dogs, and werewolves who received Goethe's orders did not actually slaughter all the natives, but surrounded them without killing them. At this moment, they were even expelled here.
The moment they saw Goethe holding a trident, these natives knelt on their knees, praying and worshiping.
Anyone can see the piety on his face.
This is true even if there are giant wolves, devil dogs, and werewolves who have just hunted them gathered around them.
Essenko looked at these natives and Goethe, who was surrounded by giant wolves, devil dogs, and werewolves. His head lowered even lower, while the people behind him trembled continuously.
These people have seen the terror of these ghost giant wolves, demon dogs, and werewolves, which can kill them with one bite or claw.
How could he not be frightened when he appeared next to them like this?
What was even more shocking was that in front of that man, these violent ghost giant wolves, devil dogs, and werewolves were as docile and well-behaved as domestic dogs.
They were a little cautious at first, but they immediately became extremely docile.
Goethe glanced at these people.
He looked at Essenkol carefully.
He knows the other person.
When he decided to go to Fabol, he collected as much information as possible, which naturally included Calgaron Island, an important island in the "inner bay".
Calgallon Island is located exactly in the north, in the middle of Fabol.
Although it is a little far from Rudes, Yatuk, and Lidar, it is still much closer than starting from the north.
Therefore, this became a transit point.
Most people will resupply here.
Therefore, it is quite prosperous here.
Of course, it's not like no one wants to 'dominate' this place - except for the Northern Territory, which has average naval power, Rudes, Yatuk, and Lidar have all considered it.
Especially Yatuk, who has the strongest naval power, has made plans more than once.
It is a pity that any party planning to attack here will be attacked by other countries.
Over time, Calgallon Island became a "nothing zone".
and……
More prosperous.
And all of this is inseparable from the man with graying temples in front of him, Essen Cole.
The other party is not only strong enough, but also has very high management capabilities.
'He is a good talent!'
Simler Ke once commented on the other party in this way.
Although the second son of the Ke family looks unreliable on the surface, he is quite proud on the inside. Apart from his family, being able to be evaluated like this by others is enough to show Essenko's ability.
After Goethe thought for a moment, he said directly.
"Will you be loyal to me?"
Goethe said, raising his hand.
Priest Dadar, who was kneeling at the front among the natives, immediately took out a contract from his arms - it was not that he had the same intention, but it was just the guidance of the [Spirit of the Blood Crow].
Unlike the leader who began to doubt the Lord God.
As a priest, Dadar is pious and fanatical.
He believed that everything they had now belonged to the gods.
As long as the Lord God wants it.
They must pay.
Even life is not spared.
As for everything that just happened?
It must be the leader... no, it was the sinner's suspicion that angered the gods, and he was punished by the gods' envoys.
And now, the sinner is dead.
The benevolent God naturally forgave them.
And the contract in his arms?
These were prepared by him for the young warriors who were just about to receive the 'baptism'. Although it was not easy to make, now that the Lord God needed them, he naturally had to take them all out.
Goethe looked at the priest who knelt in front of him and held up a stack of contracts. He nodded gently and then picked up the contract.
The humble priest did not dare to look directly at his god, but he seemed to feel the kindness, and his whole body immediately trembled with excitement.
You know, the previous Lord God was very strict.
Thunder and rage are daily.
A blood sacrifice is also performed every year.
Sure enough, it was the fault of the previous sinner!
The priest was thinking in his heart as he prostrated himself in front of Goethe.
Essenko looked at the pile of contracts with a helpless smile on his face.
But the next moment, the bitter smile disappeared.
The king of Calgaron regained his composure.
He knew he had no choice.
Very simply, Essenko signed his name on the contract.
However, not everyone does this.
Behind Essenko, several figures stood up and ran away.
"Stop them!"
Essenko yelled.
The priests who were lying on the ground and the natives who were kneeling on their knees were even more angry and roaring.
Giant wolves, devil dogs, and werewolves are lazy.
Because they know that these guys can't run away.
Gah! Gah! Gah!
One of the four [Blood Crow Spirits] that had been monitoring this place made a silent cry.
The next moment, 49 [Inferior Blood Crow Spirits] were ready to swoop down.
Puff puff puff!
One after another, bloody holes appeared on the bodies of those who escaped.
After a while, only rotten meat was left on the ground.
Invisibly, living people turned into rotten flesh. Even the people of Calgaron Island who felt they were well-informed couldn't help but shudder after seeing this scene.
Immediately, they lowered their heads and signed their names on the contract in front of them as quickly as possible.
"Sir, they..."
"It goes without saying, I know."
Goethe waved his hand and interrupted Essenkohl's words.
Why did these people run away?
Goethe knew this well.
They are nothing more than spies from various countries.
Although they cannot get their hands on Calgallon Island, there is some information about Calgallon Island that all countries must know.
"Put the guy you know under surveillance."
"What happened here should be covered up as much as possible."
Goethe ordered.
There is a high probability that what happened here cannot be completely concealed.
Because, it is very likely that these spies have already passed on the news.
Although it will not be complete, it is enough for all countries to pay attention to.
And what he has to do now is to erase as much as possible the traces of 'his' appearance, or... to erase the fact that 'Nice' is dead, even if he can't hide it, he still has to delay it.
For future plans!
He doesn't want 'them' involved!
Control variables as much as possible!
Thinking of this, Goethe looked at the people kneeling on the ground.
"Is there anyone from the North?"
Goethe asked.
Among the people who knelt down, no one answered.
Goethe frowned, then thought of something, and immediately changed his words: "Is there anyone with a 'shadow'?"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone raised his hand.
This is a young man with an ordinary face, his eyes looking at Goethe excitedly.
It was obvious that the other party recognized Goethe.
"My lord I am!"
The young man said.
Goethe made a gesture calmly, and the young man immediately gave the correct answer.
"What's your name?"
"Sir, my name is Matthew, and I am one of the thirty-six shadows under the master's command."
The young man named Matthew replied.
"Well, tell your master everything that happens here."
Goethe nodded and looked at everyone again.
"I will leave for now."
"The rest of the things are business as usual."
Goethe ordered like this, and the giant wolves, devil dogs, and werewolves disappeared immediately. The trident in his hand lightly knocked on the reef beach that was already covered by sea water, and disappeared quietly.
The natives prayed loudly.
After three times, the natives got up and left.
He ignored Essenko and others.
Essenkol and others also tacitly ignored these natives. At this time, with great goodwill, they gathered around Matthew, a young man who was originally just the patrol captain on the island, and asked in low voices one by one.
It was as if Matthew was the one in charge.
Esencor is no exception.
In fact, the former King of Calgaron Island was the most diligent one.
And facing such a thing?
Matthew said with a smile.
"Chief, please continue as usual."
After speaking, Matthew bowed respectfully to Essenko.
Then, he saluted the other dignitaries present.
Essenko watched this scene silently.
Northland?
The terrible Ke family!
He sighed in his heart.
Immediately, complete as much as possible the seemingly good plan.
This was a 'cover-up plan' that seemed pretty good to Essenko just now, and fully met Goethe's requirements, but at this time, Essenko felt it was not working.
Because, it’s not perfect enough!
If you think about it seriously, there are still a few loopholes that need to be filled.
"The person behind Matthew, the person the other party calls the master, should be the rumored Enmlai Ke, right?"
"From the opponent's perspective, my plan will definitely not work. After all, the three sons of the Ke family have eight hundred tricks - Enmlai Ke has eight hundred and one, Simle Ke has one, and Gezier has eight hundred tricks.
one."
"Enmlai Ke, who has eight hundred and one eyes, will definitely think that I am slacking off in my work, and then I will definitely die miserably!"
"No! No!"
"The plan needs to be perfected!"
Essenkol thought and looked in the direction Goethe left.
"Your Excellency must be the Goethe Wein in the rumors - indeed, he is the younger brother of Simler K., who used the 'second daughter of the Tulip Family' as a gimmick to seek Calgaron Island..."
"No!"
"There must be other purposes, right?"
"What could it be?"
Eisenkohl, who had confirmed Goethe's identity, was thinking.
As a smart person, Essenko always thinks of more.
However, this has little to do with Goethe.
After leaving a [Blood Crow Spirit] as an eye, he went straight to the Port of Marne.
Not only is Margarida Margo heading there, but also...
Nice place to stay!
When he picked up the trident, Goethe sensed that there was a very special hidden residence in the Port of Marne - located between the rocks and under the sea.
There is a strong scent of Nice left on it.
"What's going to be in there?"
Goethe thought.
Then, he gave an order to a fish school far away near Bear Castle.
Never put your eggs in one basket.
Goethe, who had such a habit, would naturally not contact Enmlek alone.
…
Bear's Castle, Simler. K habitually stood on the observation deck of the castle.
The three younger brothers have already set off.
My father left earlier.
Now he and Nina are the only ones left in the entire Bear Castle.
The eldest son of the Grand Duke was not very worried about his father, Emlay and Gergil.
My father has been promoted to a legend, so he can act secretly and protect himself without any worries.
Emlay and Gergier also acted secretly and had a complete plan.
Only Goethe was different.
This cousin of mine once again attracted everyone's attention. Not only did he appear openly and openly in everyone's sight, but these guys had no good intentions.
Recalling the news about Lidar and Yatuk that he had just received, Simlei Ke's eyes turned cold.
As for Rudd?
Although not, the eldest son of the Grand Duke was certain that the other party was also acting secretly.
They will all be temporarily drawn to Tesin's capital city of 'Bod'.
But soon, Fabol will become their focus.
"Is there any way I can help Goethe?"
The eldest son of the Grand Duke was thinking, and suddenly, he saw something.
With his blood pumping, the Grand Duke's eldest son jumped straight into the sea.
A group of fish placed words one after another in front of him.
When all the words were displayed, the fish dispersed.
Surprise and disbelief appeared on the face of the Grand Duke's eldest son.
Eventually, it turned into joy.
Simley Ke floated to the surface and returned to Bear's Castle with a smile on his face.
At the same time, Goethe, who had turned into a sea current, arrived at the Port of Marne.
Arriving at the door of Nice’s ‘residence’.
He returned to his human form and was startled when he sensed the familiar atmosphere coming from Nice's 'residence'.
