The 275th chapter is in place (2)
Several years ago, Danica had come into contact with Lucya when she was traveling through the northern prairie. At that time, the shaman faction she represented was in a fierce political struggle with the Beast King faction represented by Verus Roar. But she didn't expect that their struggle lasted for so long, and now this trial ground has become a platform for them to fight.
"It's a good thing they come!" Danica said with a smile.
Phyllis nodded and said, "Yes, it's a good thing." Whether it's Lucya or Virus, their first goal to come to Kenster is obviously impossible to win the final victory, but to suppress the other party. For them, gaining leadership within the orcs is the most important thing. To achieve this goal, it is impossible for them to rely on themselves and they must find allies as soon as possible. The so-called "as soon as possible" means being faster than the other party, so that the gap between strength can be formed. This desire for allies will bring considerable disadvantages in alliance negotiations, which is equivalent to the two of them having a desire. From another perspective, Phyllis and the others have great advantages. As the princess of the elf clan, Phyllis can be sold at a price and sell her support at a good price, but they both dare not bargain.
After a pause, Phyllis continued, "But I'm worried they'll be too urgent."
This is the greatest pressure Lucy and Virus brings to Philis. The conflict between them is so sharp that it cannot coexist, so they will hope to decide the winner as soon as possible. This is also in line with the interests of the beast tribe. The long-term fierce battle between two factions within the power is a huge consumption for the strength of the entire beast tribe. Their urgency to "decide life and death" may cause the melee of this trial to break out early. At this time, according to Danica's previous plan, it seems a bit tender. Because of this, Philis became a little anxious. She needs to immediately send a signal to the outside world: she already has a stable and powerful ally. At least in Philis's opinion, Danica is definitely a powerful helper.
This is a huge advantage. Don’t underestimate the word “stable allies”. It is definitely a rare existence in this trial. Philis believes that as the trial progresses, there will be a large number of alliances and destruction. They came here to participate in the trial as representatives of the younger generation of mainland forces. Their behavior must be in line with the interests of the forces behind them. None of the seven or eight forces in the entire Katic continent has a long-term and stable ally relationship. To put it bluntly, all forces do not have enough common interests to form a stable covenant. If the Holy See of Light and the Tulip Kingdom were considered hundreds of years in advance, the struggle between the power of church and the power of kings is becoming increasingly fierce. This is inevitable. After all, a continental-level force must expand the living space for their people, and there is a competitive relationship between them.
The only exception is Danica. Danica is here for Lord Leyin. As a ninth-level strongman, Lord Leyin's personal strength is strong enough and can be regarded as a continent-level force, but she actually has not many people responsible for it. It would be good if the so-called ancient beast survivors can have 10,000, probably only a few thousand, and she lives a wild life, so she does not need to actively expand the survival space of the race. Lord Leyin and the elf have a long ally relationship, and can even be traced back to the period of the Elf Empire, mainly because there is no conflict of interest between the two sides.
Taking this relationship as a premise, note that this is the premise. In addition, Phyllis and Danica have a good personal relationship, so they can form a stable ally relationship.
Danica frowned and closed her eyes and deduced it in her heart. This trial is indeed very complicated. Any representative of the force participating in the trial has the ability to muddle the entire water. It is very troublesome to see the original context of things through the chaos.
After a while, Danica said, "Lucia's affairs can be put aside first, let's talk about your gains this time."
Phyllis said: "The harvest is that I got the position of Sheriff Kenster." Phyllis said a little disagreeable. This plan was proposed by Danica, and she was not interested in security and other things.
Danica smiled and said, "Phyris, you may not know the importance of a sheriff to a businessman. If the sheriff intentionally makes it difficult for a shop, the shop will have a hard time. There are a large number of merchants gathered in Kenster. They are an important force in this city. I think we can make full use of it."
Phyllis said dismissively: "What can a beast tribe help me and an elf?"
Danica smiled and said, "It might be, okay, if you don't want to care about so much, you can leave it to Ai Xue. She will know how to use the position of Sheriff to get the most profit. Just put it in a name."
Phyllis glanced at Ai Xue and said, "Okay, if you think Ai Xue can do better, I have no objection."
Danica nodded, turned to Aishi and said, "You help Phyllis handle the chores that the sheriff needs to be responsible for, but you have to remember that I am not here to make money, I want to live to the end, do you understand?"
Ai Xue said nervously: "I understand, I will do the things that the sheriff... needs to be handled."
Danica frowned slightly and said, "Kenster is not mine. I don't need you to do the job of the sheriff. You don't want to make merit but not make mistakes. I need you to do two things: First, get the support of Kenster merchants and deal with the guys who don't support us; in addition, I need intelligence. There are mixed places like Kenster where trade is well-developed, and those gangsters may know much more than us. You have to find a way to collect and use this information."
Ai Xue nodded repeatedly and said, "I understand, I will do it."
Danica nodded slightly and said, "Okay, by the way, you put away this necklace."
Danica turned around and said to Phyllis, "It's getting late, so you can rest early, the place is a little small, just let's just go."
Phyllis smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm not that cute."
Aishi took Philis and Femile to rest, Danica ate a little snack and went back to bed.
The next few days were relatively quiet. Phylli and Aishi familiarized themselves with what Sheriff Kenster had to be responsible for, and then left the matter.
The position of Sheriff is not very powerful, but the jurisdiction is not small. She is under her control of the messy things in Kenst, and it is all trivial matters. In addition, Danica also ordered some things from time to time, and Ai Xue was too busy. There was no way. She urgently wrote to her and called some capable men from Ai Xue Chamber of Commerce. It would be better to leave those trivial matters to them.
Suddenly, an elf princess was airborne as Kenster's sheriff. This incident caused quite a stir in the business world, but for Danica, the most important thing at the moment is the upcoming conversation.
He was willing to spend money, and the Ai Xue Chamber of Commerce was quite famous. In only three days, Ai Xue bought a villa a little east of Kenst. The yard was relatively small, but at least the building area was large enough. This was the best choice that Ai Xue could find. In order to "persuade" the guy to sell the villa to himself, Ai Xue also used some special means. Of course, those were just trivial matters.
Danica sat on the sofa in the study on the second floor. There were some fruit trays, snacks and the like on the coffee table. There was a cup of tea in front of her, which was already a little cold.
Danica sat on the sofa with her eyes closed, not sure whether she was thinking about the situation or she was asleep.
At 9:30, the door of the study was knocked, and Danica suddenly opened her eyes and said with a calm encounter: "Come in."
Seeing the person sitting on the sofa waiting for him, Elizabeth smiled and said, "I just said this is strange. It turns out it is you!" Elizabeth himself did not have much friendship with the Aishi Chamber of Commerce, but she had just heard of it. If it weren't for the so-called fundraising, she wouldn't have come here.
Danica stood up, smiling, and said, "Yes, it's been a long time since I saw you, right?"
Both of them sat down, Aisha changed the cup of tea for Danica and gave her a cup of white water according to Elizabeth's preference.
After Ai Xue left, Elizabeth replied: "It's just like that. There's nothing big about it. There are so many trivial matters. The war in the central region lasted too long, causing a large number of war refugees. These things are troublesome enough to deal with."
Danica said, "Then you were sent here."
Elizabeth was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "I wasn't sent here, I just thought it was quite lively, so I just came here to join in the fun. I don't have the application form for forming a mercenary group like you."
A special smile appeared on Danica's face and said, "That would be the best. I was worried that as a representative of the power, it would be inconvenient for you to get too close to me, but since you are here by yourself, we can chat and talk about the old things."
Elizabeth picked up the cup and drank water, and said, "The guys who came to participate in the trial this time are very good. Do you still have the intention to reminisce about the past with me?"
"It has nothing to do with me whether they are powerful or not." Danica said openly, "I am not as good as a small force in front of them, so I come here mainly to make friends and do business. We are actually the same."
Danica dared to say anything lies. Elizabeth gave her a blank look in her heart and said, "Where is Phyllis, why didn't she see her?" Elizabeth pointed out that Phyllis was actually a bit ironic at this time. Phyllis just announced that she and Danica were all ally. Don't this guy know this?
"She? She went to the manor in the east suburbs." Danica said as if she didn't understand what Elizabeth said, and said literally, "You know that the city of Kenster is not very big, and there are so many people, and living in the city seems a bit cramped. Just then, she heard that there is a manor in the east suburbs of the city, so she decided to go and take a look."
Of course Elizabeth knew the eight strangely arranged estates around Kenster. It seemed that the representative of the Elf Royal Court had moved into one of them.
Elizabeth held the cup and said, "Why didn't you follow me?"
Danica said: "What am I doing with me? Although living with Philis is very good, they are not as comfortable and comfortable as their own doghouse after all." Danica's words are not completely nonsense. Although there is her bedroom in Zhengdong Manor, Danica still prefers to stay in the Aishi Chamber of Commerce, which is indeed a little more comfortable here.
Danica's words made Elizabeth think too much. She glanced at Danica strangely and said slowly: "I thought you and Philis have a good relationship." Could it be that the signals Philis released before were misleading others? The alliance between Philis and Danica is not stable?
Danica said: "Phyris and I are indeed good friends, but she deals with the top powerful people. Do I have any common topics with that circle? I still prefer to chat with my friends."
Danica's words have obvious hints, but how to respond is still a troublesome. Elizabeth weighed the pros and cons of it for a while before saying, "Yes, they are fighting each other, but we bystanders are very leisurely, and there is enough time to chat." Elizabeth's words actually acknowledge the friendship between her and Danica, which can be regarded as an alliance.
"Yes, come on, try these snacks, which are said to be the best snacks in Kenster." Danica said with a toothpick fork a piece of snack, "Then what should we talk about first? Or do you tell me who has come?"
To be honest, Danica's words turned a little stiff, but Elizabeth didn't care. She tasted the snacks on the coffee table and said, "I don't know much. In addition to you and Phyllis, Carl from the Holy See also came to Kenster. The other two guys from the Beast Clan... I really don't know what they will do."
"Just make a fuss, we can watch the fun." Danica said with a smile.
Elizabeth sighed and said, "What I worry about is Carl, who is a soldier, a paladin, who is used to military life, but not as accustomed to intrigue as you are... Don't rush to refute, I know what kind of person you are. I worry that he is used to being used by someone. There is only one representative of the Holy See in Kenster, and it is too embarrassing to be eliminated from the beginning."
Danica glanced at Elizabeth in surprise. This woman's ambition was quite big!
