Walking on the streets of Ratchet City, a warm wind blows in front of him, but Gazlowe's heart feels cold. This intoxicating warm wind is like the cold winter to Gazlowe.
In the cold wind, he walked in front of his city lord's palace with dull eyes. Looking at the words "city lord's palace", Gazlowe suddenly felt dazzled. The words that made him happy in the past were now all gone.
Gazlowe felt disgusted and walked into his city lord's palace, stepping on the soft and bright red carpet.
After Gazlowe asked the maid for a cup of coffee, he said this sentence as if he had lost all his strength. Gazlowe himself was paralyzed on the chair, his short body leaning on the chair behind him, his eyes blank.
Looking ahead, a cup of steaming coffee had been placed in front of Gazlowe. The dwarf maid carefully withdrew.
For a race like goblins, the standard for selecting maids is definitely not humans. That is unrealistic. Just looking at the height of the other party is a big obstacle in communication. The goblins’ favorite hired workers are dwarfs, who are from this race.
The people were too greedy, and the dwarves were all drunkards, which the goblins did not like. He grabbed the coffee and Gazlowe took a sip with a worried expression on his face.
A lie is a lie. Sooner or later, it will be discovered one day. After hiding it for more than half a year, I finally couldn't deceive anymore. Looking at the table, the information conveyed on the thin piece of paper was like a mountain.
The pressure on Gazlowe's heart made Gazlowe breathless. He read the information on the paper again. It probably meant that there was a batch of important cargo in Booty Bay that needed strong protection.
.It seems to have nothing to do with Gazlowe, but in fact it is Gazlowe’s death talisman, like an unsealed sharp blade, waiting for Gazlowe to hit it with his head.
"Go get Bard for me?" After suppressing it for a long time, Gazlowe finally broke out and roared outside. Venting the pressure in his heart, the maid standing at the door heard the news.
Zruvi roared, not daring to neglect and quickly followed the instructions to find Bard. In the past few days, Gazlowi had changed, becoming stranger and more terrifying. For many maids,
The former kind-hearted Gazlowe, who always had a smile on everyone he met, became moody and would get angry at every turn, making everyone in the entire city lord's palace tremble.
Hearing Gazlowe calling him, Bard did not dare to neglect, and walked directly towards the city lord's palace, looking like he was in a hurry. All Bard's power came from Gazlowe. If Gazlowe loses
Wei's words and Bard's words are worthless, so for Gazlowe's words, they are more effective than the imperial edict. As long as Gazlowe calls him, Bard will immediately go there no matter when and where.
"Bard, are you here?" Gazlowe's eyes flashed brightly when he saw Bard's appearance. Bard, a consultant who was not outstanding at first, has performed well since the wild boar invasion. Many
Everything was handled in an orderly manner. The impression in Gazlowe's heart has changed from just a mediocre talent who could be used once, to a person who can be used in many ways, and has become an arm to rely on. Now that things have come to this point, Gazlowe
Already completely helpless and without any ideas, Bard has become Gazlowe's last life-saving straw.
"Look at the order that the Trade Prince just gave me?" Gazlowi handed the thin piece of paper to Bard with a wry smile on his face. There were not many words on the paper.
Yimu glanced at it and could finish it in just a few seconds, but this piece of paper made Bard look at it for a full minute. Bard who originally entered the house was still a little confused, and
I don’t know what the reason why Gazlowe called him here, but after reading this piece of paper, Bard knew Gazlowe’s purpose.
Bard was also involved in the original plot against the wild boar. Bard was extremely familiar with Gazlowe's plan from beginning to end, and no one knew the consequences of it better than him. If it weren't for
He, Bard, is so loyal that there is no way such serious consequences would occur in the end. Thinking of the consequences, Bard couldn't help but feel bitter. This was really his own fault. If he hadn't informed him, the consequences would never have been as serious as before. A trace of regret surfaced in his mind.
In Bud's heart.
However, it was replaced by Bard's desire for gold coins in an instant. If you don't want the golden gold coins in vain, the worst thing you can do is change your boss. At this moment, Bard has already had the idea of changing his boss in his heart.
"What do you think of this matter, Bard? The Trade Prince wants to transfer those two ninth-level people, but where can I find two ninth-level people?" Gazlowe's words were filled with annoyance, and he started again just after he finished speaking.
Regarding the abuse of the wild boar people, this is what Gazlowe has done the most in the past half a year, which is to scold the wild boar people, "Damn wild boar, all damn wild boar people..."
..”
"It is no longer possible to continue to hide it. The news of the two people's deaths in the Velociraptor Plain can no longer be concealed at this point." Bard raised his head, pondered for a moment, and then continued to preach; "
In the past half a year, we have found many reasons to shirk, which has aroused the suspicion of the Trade Prince. This time we will definitely not be allowed to continue to shirk. What's more, Drew is not a vegetarian.
Yes, we know what happened in the Velociraptor Plain, but Drew also knows,"
"Kill Drew," Gazlowe's eyes flashed with cold light. For his identity as the administrator of Ratchet City, Gazlowe can use any means. Everything in Gazlowe belongs to Ratchet City.
brought by the administrator. If he loses his position as Ratchet City administrator, most of the wealth that has already shrunk will continue to shrink by then, and most likely nothing will be retained. For goblins, gold coins are everything.
Gazlowe couldn't bear the pain of losing all his gold coins.
"No, no, no," hearing Gazlowe's murderous words shocked Bard. What a joke. Now Bard is thriving in Ratchet City.
Zruvi’s relationship on the surface is with Drew secretly. Most of Bard’s gold coins are obtained from Drew. Just acting as a consultant to Gazlowe can earn a few gold coins, especially
Gazlowi has always been famous for being stingy.
Drew is Bard's source of wealth. The connection between the two is extremely close. To put it bluntly, Drew now controls a lot of Bard's information. If Drew knew about it, Gazlowe would kill him without waiting.
If Drew was killed, he would be killed by Gazlowe first. No one would have a good impression of a guy who cheats on himself. Even if Drew was killed with careful planning, in the end Bard thought he was still going to die.
Because a cunning guy like Drew will definitely hold back.
There are other secretive people who will inform him after his death, so Drew must not kill him.
"Drew can't be killed," Bud said quickly.
"Why? I need an explanation. Wouldn't it be better to kill Drew? No one knows what happened in the Velociraptor Plains." Gazlowe's murderous eyes stared at Bader closely. Obviously Bader answered
Gazlowe's words cannot satisfy Gazlowe, and Drew cannot kill him. For the sake of his position as the administrator of Ratchet City, he, Gazlowe, will kill whoever dares to kill, and whoever stands in the way.
"Just killing Drew won't work at all. For more than half a year, Drew has known the inside story, but he didn't tell the Trade Prince at all, which proves that he still doesn't dare to provoke the main city," Bud thought for a while and finally did it
Baba said, saying that Bud wanted to slap him. This sentence was not convincing at all. It only made Gazlowe more determined to kill Drew. It was just as Bud noticed after the fact.
"The fewer people know about this kind of news, the better." Gazlowe glanced at Bard with murderous intent. "Whether he was a tip-off or not, it would be better if he died."
"Drew has now established a relationship with a venture capital company. If we act rashly, it will cause a lot of trouble." Bud thought carefully and decided to use tiger skin to intimidate Gazlowe. This is the only way.
To be able to shock Gazlowe, the venture capital company is the power of the trade prince Razdenk.
Each of the five goblin trade princes is in charge of a large area. Not only does he possess amazing financial resources, but he also has huge military force. Among them, Razdenk, the trade prince, likes to use force the most, and his subordinates are even more talented.
Jiji, a person who likes force, is the most domineering. If people know that someone has touched one of his people, one can imagine the fate of Gazlowe. But this time, Bard thought poorly. Drew has more background.
, the more it aroused Gazlowe’s murderous intention.
If there was a possibility of redemption at the beginning, now that Gazlowe wants to kill Drew's heart, no one can change it. If Drew and himself don't deal with each other, and if they don't kill him first, how can they wait until Drew becomes rich?
Taking care of yourself is something that Bard has not considered. Bard just has some cleverness and has won the trust of Gazlowe recently. This is the result of someone behind the scenes.
However, even though Bard is only a little clever, there is one thing he is a master at, and that is the ability to observe people's emotions. This is why Bard was not discovered by Gazlowe. Seeing that Gazlowe had made a decision in his heart, Bard gave up decisively.
